Chapter 230 The Little Scholar Killed by His Classmates (4)
"She is such a petty and intolerant person, and only you, Yang Ruqing, treat her like a treasure.
Even now, you've been left childless by her, yet you still have such deep affection for her. It's truly admirable!"
“Cousin, she really did something wrong.
But as the saying goes, when a person dies, all debts are forgiven. Yun'er is no longer with us, so can we just let the past go? I will definitely treat you well in the future."
"That's all written off!
Who cares if you treat me well!
If you didn't know about those dirty things and you really didn't get involved, do you think I would let you into this room tonight?
Also, don't think I don't know what you mean by coming to see my son?
Don’t you just want my Shuang’er to recognize the thief as her mother and throw the pot on that vicious woman?
I tell you, stop dreaming!
My son doesn't care about your Yang family's wealth! I, your mother, even less!
That vicious woman should be left alone, with no one to offer sacrifices to her!"
"But cousin, the child is the flesh and blood of my Yang family. Isn't it natural to recognize our ancestors and return to our roots?"
"It's bullshit and natural! Who allowed you to indulge such a thing back then?"
"No, cousin, I really don't know what happened back then.
After all these years, can't you forgive me this time?"
"Of course you don't know, you know nothing!
Don’t you know that your own mother longed for a grandson, she cried every day and died with her eyes open!
Don't you know that there are so many women in your backyard, no matter they are promoted as concubines or brought in as concubines, they are all given contraceptive drugs as soon as they enter the mansion!
What you don’t know is that there were a few smart people who didn’t drink the contraceptive medicine or who vomited it out.
But after finally getting pregnant, she would use the secret medicine she brought from her mother's family to kill both of them!
Even if the baby was lucky enough to be born under the care of my aunt, he would not live past the age of two!
Yang Ruqing! I just wonder if you ever dreamt of your mother crying and saying she was sorry to the ancestors of the Yang family in your dreams at midnight?
Have those children who haven’t grown up called you dad and asked you to avenge them?
Have those poor women ever complained to you about their grievances?
So Yang Ruqing, face the reality.
It is all because of your inaction as a son, husband, and father that you have now ended up without any descendants."
“No, no, no, cousin!
I have a son born to you, so it doesn’t count in any way…”
"Humph, you just say it's not counted? My son has a father!
Now get out of here right now!
You are not allowed to have any ideas about my son from now on.
Otherwise, I will spread the dirty deeds your beloved wife has done throughout the entire Yangjiazhuang.
Look at the clan leaders and elders, will you allow such a vicious woman to be buried in the ancestral tomb again and disturb my aunt's peace!
I will go to Suzhou and Beijing and spread the news everywhere.
Let everyone know how blind and deaf you are, the former top scholar and current fourth-rank official in Suzhou.
How he was played around by a woman in the harem.
In the end, he ended up with no descendants and his wealth was lost!"
"No, no, no, cousin, you won't do that, you..."
"Who said I wouldn't do that? If you don't believe me, try beating my son's master!
Yang Ruqing, since you love her so much, then you should just hold on to her rank and live the rest of your life well. Why do you still care about what happens after her death?
Finally, for the sake of your uncle and aunt, I would like to kindly remind you if you really want to adopt a son this time.
You'd better send a few more people to protect him, and let him live in Yangjiazhuang for a long time. Maybe he can grow up well.
If you want to take her to the Yang Mansion, I'm sure your good wife will definitely leave you a backup plan before she died.
Forget about adopting just one child. Even if you adopt ten or a hundred, not a single one will survive!"
"No, cousin, I already have the child you gave birth to for me, I will not adopt an heir!"
"It's the same whether you are adopted or not. Now we each have our own doors and accounts, and we can't even put our chopsticks in the same pot.
This is just for the sake of the children in the village. It's just a piece of advice. It's up to you to listen or not!"
Shuangshuang saw that the two of them had almost finished talking, so she deliberately yelled at the back.
"Mom, I forgot to bring my coat. I'm so cold!"
Zheng Sangning then remembered that his son was still at home. Fortunately, he was taking a shower in the backyard and should not have heard what he said before.
He quickly responded, "Oh, you little brat, how could you be so careless! What if you catch a cold? I'll get it for you right away."
Shuangshuang came in wearing her coat, and saluted him as if she had just met Yang Ruqing.
"I meet Master Yang."
Yang Ruqing stared at his face for a while, stammered a few times, and finally said nothing else.
“Okay, okay, good boy.
I heard you're going to the county seat to take the county exam tomorrow. Is there anything else you need help with?"
"No! Our teacher is very careful and has already sorted it out for us."
"That's it, then..."
He glanced at Zheng Sangning and saw that she was only focused on wiping Shuangshuang's hair with a handkerchief and didn't even look at him.
He sighed imperceptibly, took out a jade pendant from his right side and handed it to Lin Haoyu.
“This jade pendant was given to me by His Majesty when I was in the Hanlin Academy.
Now I am giving it to you, and I wish you all the best and win the first prize this time!"
"No, no, no, sir, your gift is too precious. I am ashamed to accept it."
"A gift from an elder cannot be refused, so take it!"
Seeing him dithering, Zheng Sangning was so angry that he threw the handkerchief in his hand onto the stool and yelled.
"I told you not to use it. Don't you understand what I'm saying? You're giving my son a gift from the emperor. What do you want to do? Who's responsible if he gets hurt?"
Yang Ruqing was instantly choked. "Well... in that case. I have a set of excellent four treasures of the study. I'll have someone send it to you later."
"No need! My son has already prepared everything himself, and he wouldn't be used to other people's things!
It’s so late, you should leave, my son needs to go to bed early!"
Zheng Sangning didn't give him any face at all and started to argue directly.
Yang Ruqing finally sighed and walked away dejectedly.
Zheng Sangning immediately slammed the gate shut.
That voice seemed to be locked in everyone's heart, making people tremble.
Yang Ruqing returned to her yard, stood in front of the mourning hall, looked at the coffin in front of her quietly, and recalled what Zheng Sangning said.
To be honest, he has been quite confident in Yun Ning over the years.
I handed the entire backyard over to her and never doubted that she would do something dirty.
But Zheng Sangning spoke so confidently that he couldn't help but become suspicious.
But if Yu Yunning did that when she just got married, he could still understand it.
After all, the legitimate son is not allowed to be born before the legitimate son is born. This is indeed the case in aristocratic families.
But later, when she got older and it was obvious that she could no longer give birth, why didn't she let others do it?
If she gave birth to a son, he would be adopted under her name. Why would she want to harm him?
