The matriarch gasped. "What?! It was all her doing?!" She used to think that it was w.a.n.g Luo Hai"s enemy doing. Who would have thought that the culprit was actually one of w.a.n.g Luo Hai"s women? Usually, they were fighting to have children with their husband ah~! How come Madam w.a.n.g want to kill off their offsprings just like that?!
What she couldn"t believe even more was the fact that her son had long known about it... why didn"t he do anything about it?! Instead, he let her stay as his wife until now! What kind of situation was this? She didn"t understand! Really, really did not understand!
The matriarch felt like she really had raised an ingrate! After all, she had known Ruo An ever since she was a little girl and always doted on her. Seeing her as a kind and sweet girl, she pushed w.a.n.g Luo Hai to marry her because she knew how much Ruo An loved w.a.n.g Luo Hai. But why?!
However, what she disappointed in the most was the fact that she had such a stupid son! Why didn"t he tell her about this matter?! He didn"t even deal with it properly!
She was so angry that she stood up and rushed over to the side room, not caring about what Yao Ying and Yao Ling would think about her --- besides, they should understand the reason why she was so angry. The matriarch had totally lost her composure due to her anger. "What did you say?!" She asked w.a.n.g Luo Hai. "Did she really the one who gave you the drugs?!"
"Mother..." w.a.n.g Luo Hai trailed off. He forgot about her presence --- he was too angry just now! "Mother, calm yourself down!" w.a.n.g Luo Hai tried to persuade her.
How could the matriarch calm down after she heard everything just now?!
Without a second thought, she raised her cane and beat Madam w.a.n.g with it. No one was able to stop her in time because w.a.n.g Luo Hai was too surprised. On the other hand, Yao Ling was also shocked by how this matter turned out. What kind of crazy woman would give her own husband such medicine?! Was she really crazy?! Yao Ying felt that it wasn"t his place to meddle in this matter so he continued waiting for them outside of the room.
w.a.n.g Luo Hai wanted to stop her but he knew that his mother was beyond angry and he could only look helplessly at Yao Ling. However, Yao Ling merely watched on the side at how the matriarch beat her ferociously and didn"t seem to have a plan to stop her. After all, it served Madam w.a.n.g right!
So in the end, it was w.a.n.g Luo Hai who pulled the matriarch back because he was afraid that there would be a mishap. Who knew his crazy wife would be angry and push his mother? It would make the matter even worse.
"Mother... you don"t need to bother with her! Let me deal with her!" w.a.n.g Luo Hai persuaded her in a soft soothing voice so that she wouldn"t be too agitated.
The matriarch turned her gaze to w.a.n.g Luo Hai in disbelief and looked at him with teary eyes. "You? Deal with it? If you deal with her sooner, we won"t be pierced from the back by her until now. She made you infertile and could never produce an offspring. And yet, she still didn"t feel satisfied! She also wanted to kill Yao Ying and Yao Ling whom you have recognized as your legal children. In the end, what is her goal and why didn"t you kick her out after you knew the truth?! Why do you let her keep her position until this moment?!"
Madam w.a.n.g also wanted to know this point ah~! She thought he didn"t know so her position was still as strong as ever. Who knew that he actually knew?!
w.a.n.g Luo Hai couldn"t answer the matriarch"s question, after all, he had his selfish motives as well. "This..." He stopped midway and sighed helplessly.
Madam w.a.n.g didn"t even make a sound when she was being beaten but she glared at the matriarch in hatred --- Yao Ling could see how stubborn she was from her expression. It was better if she let the matriarch sit a bit far from her. Madam w.a.n.g currently looked a bit dangerous.
"Grandmother... please sit down first! Why should you dirty your hand by doing this? Let Father talk to her! I"m sure that she will tell everything soon," Yao Ling slightly quipped at Madam w.a.n.g, pointing at her like a dirty thing. The woman had been so angry, so of course, she would vent her anger and say everything that was inside her mind to them. Besides, what she said just now must have provoked the woman as well.
Yao Ling glanced at her and Madam w.a.n.g"s glare was directed at her.
Fortunately, the matriarch was willing to listen to Yao Ling and finally sitting down despite her anger. She waved her hand and said to w.a.n.g Luo Hai, "Continue..."
w.a.n.g Luo Hai, "..."
Honestly, he felt uncomfortable when his mother kept looking at him with a piercing gaze... It made him remember the memory of being punished by her when he was a little boy. However, he had no other choice. He turned to Madam w.a.n.g and asked, "Why did you give me the medicine? Didn"t you always want a child of your own?"
Madam w.a.n.g wiped the blood that was flowing down at the corner of her mouth and looked stubbornly at w.a.n.g Luo Hai. "Why? Ha - Ha - Ha! You don"t even know why! I feel so silly for loving you all this time!"
The more they talked, the more w.a.n.g Luo Hai didn"t understand what Madam w.a.n.g actually wanted. "I don"t know!"
"Because you are jealous of the concubines?" Yao Ling decided to help w.a.n.g Luo Hai and asked. w.a.n.g Luo Hai was really too oblivious about the matter of the heart.
Madam w.a.n.g looked at Yao Ling in disdain. "They are just mere concubines. Why should I put them in my eyes? Besides, I know w.a.n.g Luo Hai doesn"t have any feelings for them."
Yao Ling, "..."
Why did Madam w.a.n.g look at her in disdain? She was a newcomer in this household, how could she know who loved who ah~?! She didn"t even want to be involved in this matter in the first place!
"But I"m pretty sure that it"s because of your petty jealousy, right?" Yao Ling asked once again.
"Ha! You are correct! I"m afraid that if one day... Jiu Lan comes back, what would become of me?! He still keeps her picture somewhere in his library... I saw him looked at it with a longing look a few times and it made me angry!" Madam w.a.n.g admitted.
"It"s only your imagination. Even if she comes back, she already has her own husband --- General Lin, so what"s the connection between the infertility of father and Jiu Lan? Don"t you think that your thoughts are a bit too farfetched?" Yao Ling asked but she didn"t directly tell her that Jiu Lan was actually her mother because it would certainly add another trouble for her.
She looked apologetically to w.a.n.g Luo Hai, after all, she would hurt his feelings by saying that. She understood that he was really in love with her mother...
