Chapter 118 Intentions
Chapter 118 Intentions
Xiangyun stood outside the bead curtain and heard her second young lady yelling and mocking at the madam, each word more harsh than the last. She was so shocked that her eyes widened. Oh my God, how could the second young lady dare to scold the madam now? The madam is the second young lady's biological mother.
Is there any daughter in this world who deserves to scold her own mother? But the second young lady of her family did scold her, and she did so with great passion, as if she wanted to piss her mother off to death. No, she must have heard it wrong.
Xiangyun still couldn't believe it and pinched her face hard until she felt pain. Only then did she believe what she heard was true. She always knew that her second young lady was extremely bold, but she never thought that she was so bold as to scold her own mother and make her own mother so angry that she almost wanted to kill someone.
Second Miss, you are not only scolding your own mother, but also the mistress of the Shen family. Xiangyun was still in shock and thought to herself that if she followed the Second Miss, she would sooner or later be scared to death by her shocking words and deeds.
At this moment, Bai Ying's face was filled with rage. She had already lost her mind due to Shen Qingyu's anger. Her eyes were full of murderous intent. Now she was on the verge of collapse. If she had a dagger in her hand, she would probably stab Shen Qingyu on the spot.
Xiangyun was extremely anxious outside. She wondered whether she should go in to protect the second young lady. However, the second young lady asked her to stay and not let anyone in. However, the second young lady had a big fight with the lady, and now the lady was emotionally unstable. The second young lady was in danger at any time.
Second Miss, please stop talking. If you continue, either you will make Madam angry to death, or she will kill you. But Shen Qingyu did not hear Xiangyun's cries in her heart.
"You've been smart all your life, but why did you fail miserably in front of Shen Chuanhe? I understand now. After all, you love Hong'er so much just to make my father come back to you for Hong'er's sake, right?" Shen Qingyu's voice was very soft, but it became colder and colder. "Mom, can I say that you care so much about Hong'er's life and death not out of mother-son love, but because you are afraid that once Hong'er is gone, my father won't even look at you!"
Does a woman deserve to be so humble in love? The legitimate daughter of the Bai family, an aristocratic family in Hejian Prefecture, was born arrogant, but in order to keep Shen Chuanhe, she had no choice but to resort to this last resort.
In the end, she and Shen Youhong are the same, both are bargaining chips in Bai Ying's hands. The only difference is that Shen Youhong's bargaining chip is valuable, but you are not!
She finally had a mother, but why must this mother be like this, heartless and ungrateful, using her children as bargaining chips?
Shen Qingyu felt a chill all over his body.
"No, you unfilial daughter, you disobeyed me, what nonsense are you talking about, Hong'er is my son, how could I not love him!" Bai Ying shook her head repeatedly, but the secret hidden in her heart was suddenly revealed by Shen Qingyu, making her unable to stand steadily, panic-stricken and terrified.
"Mom, if you want to keep my dad, you have a way," Shen Qingyu raised the corners of his lips and sneered, "Just follow the example of Aunt Liu. Look at her, she is pregnant with another heir of the Shen family for my dad. If you think Hong'er can't be saved, give my dad another son. Then the one that comes out of your belly will be a healthy, disease-free legitimate child. By then, all my dad's eyes will be on you."
Bai Ying naturally loves her son Shen Youhong, but she loves Shen Chuanhe even more. If Shen Chuanhe doesn't care about this legitimate son, Hong'er will probably end up like her and be abandoned by Bai Ying.
"Shen Qingyu, I am your mother. Do you even doubt your own mother?"
Bai Ying roared and roared with ferocity in her eyes, but in Shen Qingyu's opinion, she was trying to hide her guilty conscience.
"My dear mother? Are you sure? Do you have a daughter like me in your heart? When you left me in a corner to fend for myself, did you still remember that you are my dear mother?" Shen Qingyu roared. She was irritated by Bai Ying's unreasonable and shameless attitude. She laughed at herself and said, "Yes, you gave birth to me after ten months of pregnancy. Who made me unlucky? I am not as good-looking as Shen Xitong, and I am not liked by my father. But Hong'er is different. Even if he has been weak and sickly all the time, he is still the legitimate son of the Shen family. If there is no exception, the Shen family will belong to Hong'er sooner or later."
"What a pity, Hong'er is just like me, with little luck..."
She really felt unfair for Shen Qingyu. Her parents were both there, but she had never enjoyed a single bit of family love. This mother even wanted her to die.
However, even if she and Bai Ying were angry with each other or had a falling out, she had long lost hope in Bai Ying and no longer had any feelings for her.
But the most innocent person is Shen Youhong. He is still so young and should not be trapped in Bai Ying's predicament.
"elder sister……"
At this time, Shen Youhong on the bed opened his eyes weakly and reached out to her.
But Bai Ying stopped Shen Qingyu and said, "Don't go over there. Do you want to kill your brother?"
"Mother, when my daughter came in just now, the sorcerer also told her that you are in trouble this year and will bring disaster to your young son. Mother, what is your intention in staying with Hong'er?"
Those fraudulent Taoist priests were just putting on an act to cheat the Shen family out of their money. Their tricks of exorcising ghosts and evil spirits were just scammers' tactics.
If the Bai family of Hejian Prefecture cannot cure the disease, the worst that can happen is that they will leave Jiangnan and head north. If Shen Youhong's disease is truly incurable, she does not want Shen Youhong to stay in the hands of these people and suffer torture. He has already suffered from taking medicine every day when he was alive, and she does not want Shen Youhong to have no peace when he dies.
"you!"
Bai Ying was so angry that she staggered and almost fell down.
"Someone come!" Seeing this, Shen Qingyu called the maid guarding outside the door and ordered, "Madam has been overworked recently and is not feeling well. Help her downstairs to rest."
Shen Qingyu apparently called the maid to support Bai Ying, but in fact he wanted to stop her from stopping him from going to see Shen Youhong.
"All of you get out of here!"
Bai Ying cursed angrily, but she was so angry at Shen Qingyu that she had no strength left in her body, and the sound of her curses naturally lacked momentum.
"Mother, look at your complexion. It's not good to look so bad. Hong'er's illness hasn't recovered yet. What if you fall ill? Now our Shen family depends on you." In front of several maids, Shen Qingyu pretended to be filial. "But, mother, now that your daughter is back, she will take care of Hong'er for you. You can rest assured."
Bai Ying was so angry that all she could do was gasp for air.
"What are you standing there for? Help the Madam down." Shen Qingyu threatened, and the maids dared not disobey.
