Chapter 956: Chapter 956: Utterly Wronged
“Auntie Tang, Zhizhi is not only your son but also the beloved treasure of our General’s Mansion. You should know that such words must not be spoken carelessly. If they get out, they could ruin Zhizhi. Don’t bla for not considering our past relationship then,” the Old Madam’s eyes narrowed, her tone filled with warning.
Lady Tang felt so bitterly wronged inside!
Situ Zhi was her own son; if it hadn’t been for the Old Madam pressuring her relentlessly, insistent on having Situ Yongjie divorce her, she would have never spoken out this disgraceful side of him as a last resort.
“Your daughter-in-law swears to the heavens, if there’s a single lie in my words, may I be struck by lightning and et an untily death.” Auntie Tang lifted three fingers, making a poisonous oath to the sky.
Hearing this, the Old Madam felt a sudden jolt in her heart. She had made her stance very clear, yet Auntie Tang still insisted on her claims. It seed that what she said just now was likely true.
But Situ Zhi was only nine years old, and from a young age, he had been clever and well-behaved. He didn’t seem at all like a murderous Demon Head. The Old Madam felt a blockage in her heart; she attributed all the sins to Auntie Tang, and with a finger pointed at her, she burst into angry scolding, “You wretched woman, my good grandson was taught by you to be this way, you truly are a scourge, bringing calamity to our General’s Mansion.”
Auntie Tang was filled with grievance. It was true that she doted on her only son, Situ Zhi, but the Old Madam doted on him even more. Now that sothing had happened, why was she to bla for everything?
“Mother-in-law, don’t just bla . Weren’t you also extrely fond of Zhizhi, which led to his willful and unruly nature?” Auntie Tang muttered quietly, head lowered.
“We in the Situ Family have only this one grandson. If the Old Madam doesn’t dote on him, then who should she dote on?” The Old Madam, with sharp ears, imdiately retorted with full conviction upon hearing this.
“It’s precisely because we have spoiled Zhizhi so much that he has beco lawless and regards human life as worthless.” Auntie Tang had wanted to say this to the Old Madam long ago.
However, she had kept silent at that ti to cover up her son’s cris and dared not speak out. Now that it had co to light, Auntie Tang held nothing back, venting all her dissatisfaction with the Old Madam.
The Old Madam was montarily left speechless.
Indeed, she had always been responsive to Situ Zhi’s wishes and doted on this only grandson to the point of spoiling him, wishing to give him everything good under the heavens.
At this mont, Situ Yongjie, accompanied by two guards, hurried in, “Mother, for what matter did you summon your son?”
The Old Madam looked up and saw Situ Yongjie arriving, and she rembered her earlier intention of having her son divorce Auntie Tang.
However, the situation had changed; for Situ Zhi’s sake, Auntie Tang could not be easily divorced.
In her heart, her once gentle grandson had beco a murderous demon. At the mont, her mood was in complete disarray, yet she managed a strained smile and said, “It’s been several days since I’ve seen Jiejie, and I miss you terribly, so I had the Old Maid call for you, so that we, mother and son, could have a good talk.”
Nurse Zhang, who followed behind, was taken aback, thinking to herself that the Old Madam had changed her mind about having the Old Master divorce Auntie Tang. Fortunately, she hadn’t told the Old Master the reason the Old Madam summoned him, or she would have certainly faced punishnt from the Old Madam.
“My work has been busy, and since Mother has returned to the mansion, I haven’t properly accompanied you. We, as mother and son, should indeed sit down and have a good chat!” Situ Yongjie sat down beside the Old Madam with a smile on his face.
