Chapter 956 [Ashes of Love: Red Mansion Tribulation 26]
Jia Min frowned slightly and said to Mrs. Wang with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Second sister-in-law, you can't say that. Although my daughter Yu'er is the prince's consort, she is just a mortal woman, not an omnipotent god. How can she do everything?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang showed a trace of displeasure on her face and retorted, "Sister Min'er, what you said is wrong. Although Daiyu is now the Crown Prince's Consort, the Prince of Beijing is the current emperor's biological brother. If Daiyu marries him, she will become the emperor's nephew-in-law. With such a noble status, it is unreasonable for her to accomplish such a small matter. Mother, please judge for yourself and see if what I said makes sense." As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Lady Jia.
Seeing this, Jia Min sighed inwardly, then quickly turned to look at Grandmother Jia, her eyes full of doubt and expectation, and asked, "Mother, do you agree with what Second Sister-in-law said?"
Being stared at by her daughter, Grandmother Jia suddenly felt uncomfortable. However, after weighing the pros and cons of family affection, she finally chose the former. She coughed and said slowly, "Min'er, what your second sister-in-law said is not unreasonable. After all, Yuanchun and Daiyu are cousins, and it is not easy to refuse this favor. Besides, this matter only requires some words, and I think it should not be a difficult matter."
"Hmph! It seems that the reason you asked me to bring Yu'er here, mother, was not because you missed us, mother and daughter, but because you had such a disgusting idea and wanted to suck Yu'er's blood! Mother, if you dare to have such crooked thoughts again in the future, don't blame your daughter for disregarding the mother-daughter relationship and completely severing ties with this relative! You must know that a daughter who is married off is like spilled water. Now that I am a wife of another family, I should put my husband's family first!" Jia Min said with her eyes wide open and indignant.
"Min'er, how could you misinterpret your mother's feelings like this? I am your biological mother who gave birth to you and raised you! Can you really bear to bear the name of being unfilial?" Grandmother Jia widened her eyes and looked at Jia Min in disbelief, with a hint of anger and sadness in her voice.
"Mother, you are clearly pushing your daughter to a dead end!" Jia Min cried bitterly, "Since I got married, have you ever really cared about my life or death? Now you are targeting Yu'er again. Do you still have any motherly love?"
At this moment, Mrs. Wang, who had been watching coldly, suddenly said, "Sister Min'er, are you trying to threaten us with these words? Don't forget, this is the Jia family after all, not a place for you to act wildly!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Youyou on the side quickly reached out to hold Jia Min and gently advised: "Grandmother, second aunt, please calm down. The prince once said that if I suffered the slightest injustice here, he would never let it go. After all, although our Rongguo Mansion is famous, it may not be willing to offend the Beijing Prince's Mansion easily."
"What's the matter, Daiyu, are you trying to threaten our Rongguo Mansion?" Mrs. Wang said with a gloomy face, her sharp eyes shot straight at Daiyu, as if she wanted to see through her.
Youyou, who was beside Daiyu, responded fearlessly: "If second aunt insists on thinking so, then so be it! Anyway, no matter what I say or do, second aunt will think that I have bad intentions." After saying that, Youyou curled her lips slightly, revealing a hint of disdain.
Hearing this, Madam Wang was so angry that she trembled all over. She pointed her finger at Youyou and shouted angrily: "You...you ignorant girl!"
At this time, Grandmother Jia, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke. She looked at Daiyu with a hint of reproach and said, "Daiyu, is this what your mother taught you every day? How can you speak so rudely to your elders?"
However, before Daiyu could reply, Jia Min, who was standing nearby, immediately stepped forward to protect her daughter. She looked directly at Grandmother Jia and asked, "Mother, are you blaming Yu'er for her upbringing? Have you forgotten that the emperor once praised our Yu'er as an extremely filial person?" At this point, Jia Min's tone became heavier.
"You...actually..." Grandmother Jia touched her chest, as if she couldn't breathe for a moment. Mrs. Wang immediately stepped forward to calm Grandmother Jia down, and then said, "Sister Min'er, how dare you talk to your mother like this? She is your biological mother, she is in poor health, and you are still angry with her."
Jia Min was stunned immediately. She had not thought that Grandmother Jia was in poor health. She did not look like that. So she said, "Mother, when did you become ill? How come I didn't know? I remember that you were always in good health."
Grandmother Jia leaned against Lady Wang, supporting her head with one hand and her waist with the other, and said weakly: "You've really made me mad at my old bones! If you could make me less angry, maybe I could live a few more years." As she spoke, she breathed lightly, her face full of fatigue and helplessness.
Jia Min, who was standing by, felt a pang in her heart when she heard this, but she was more aggrieved and angry. She suddenly raised her head, looked directly into Jia's eyes, and said loudly: "Mother, how can you say that? In your eyes, is your daughter just a tool that can be used at will? Although my daughter was born in the Rongguo Mansion and has a noble status, she is now the mistress of the Lin Mansion and the mother-in-law of the future prince! I'm sorry that I can't help with this matter. Not to mention that it will harm Yu'er, even if I don't care about her, I can't make deep hatred with others because of this matter! I want to marry my daughter off in a glorious way, not to make enemies with others." After saying this, Jia Min's eyes were already red, and tears were rolling in her eyes, as if they would fall at any time.
"I just ask you to do a small favor. Isn't Yuanchun your niece? Don't you want to help with such a small favor?" Grandmother Jia looked at Jia Min with dissatisfaction.
At this time, Jia Min frowned slightly and responded softly: "Mother, it's getting late. I will go back today and come to visit you another day. Yu'er, let's go back home now." After that, she took the hand of Youyou beside her and turned to leave.
However, Jia's mother hurriedly shouted: "Are you so impatient to leave this house? You are not willing to stay even a little longer!"
Hearing this, Jia Min stopped, turned around and looked directly at Grandmother Jia, and said slowly: "Mother, it's not that I don't want to stay here, but you don't seem to want me to stay for long. In the future, I will naturally do my best to honor you. But if it comes to other things, especially about Yu'er, I really can't do anything. Now that Yu'er has married into the royal family and become a royal daughter-in-law, I hope mother and second sister-in-law will not have any ideas about Yu'er anymore."
After hearing this, Jia's mother showed displeasure and retorted: "Min'er, how can you think like this? We are a family connected by blood and flesh and blood!"
Jia Min took a deep breath, bowed to her grandmother again, and then said firmly: "Mother, I'll take my leave now. I will come to visit you again when I am free. In addition, Yu'er's wedding is approaching. From now on, she needs to concentrate on preparing for the wedding. I'm afraid she will not have time to come here again until she gets married. So, please understand, mother." After that, Jia Min took Youyou and left the Jia Mansion without looking back.
