Jiang Jin shook her head. “He’s staying for lunch. I asked Song Ning to accompany them…”
Sister Yu was slightly surprised. “Young Madam is back?”
Jiang Jin nodded solemnly.
Sister Yu looked as though she wanted to say something. However, in the end, she swallowed the words hanging at the tip of her tongue and adjusted her expression instead. Then, she said, “Ms. Liang came to see the baby earlier. She seems to like the baby very much. She tried to cover the baby with the blanket, but I stopped her at that time since I thought she was trying to carry the baby. I think I might have hurt her feelings.”
Jiang Jin nodded. “She’ll never be a mother in this life so seeing the baby will trigger her maternal instincts. On the day of the fire, she was the one who carried the baby out. I do think she’s sincere regarding the baby. In any case, it’s all karma. If she didn’t try to use her baby as leverage back then, causing harm to her sister, she wouldn’t have lost her baby.” She sighed before continuing to say, “She’s really unlucky. She tries to be a villain, but her heart isn’t hard enough. In the end, she’s neither a vicious person nor a good person, which is even more difficult to endure…”
Sister Yu only listened quietly and did not comment on the matter.
At this time, Jiang Jin reached out to touch the baby’s small hand. She did not expect the baby to grab her finger immediately. He even began to kick his legs happily. Upon seeing this, she laughed happily.
“His reaction is really fast…” Sister Yu said, “It’s to be expected since Young Madam really took good care of herself when she was pregnant… It’s natural the baby is so healthy and smart…”
As soon as Sister Yu mentioned Song Ning, her and Jiang Jin’s expressions turned grim immediately.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Jin said softly, “When I asked her to go shopping earlier, she went out happily without any hesitation at all. When she returned and saw Mu Qing and Liang Zhou, she seemed genuinely happy; she even addressed them as ‘Father’ and ‘Aunt’. She has never addressed them in this way at all, prior to today. After that, she complained about Mu Chen to me and busied herself with entertaining the guests. The entire time, she did not mention the baby at all…”
Jiang Jin looked at Sister Yu and asked, “What do you think will be the first thing we do as soon as we return home?”
Sister Yu replied without any hesitation, “Ask about the baby and check on the baby…”
Jiang Jin nodded. “That’s right. So why, as a mother, doesn’t she seem to care about her baby at all?”
Sister Yu asked, “Old Madam, you also feel that something isn’t right with the Young Madam, right?”
Jiang Jin did not reply; she did not nod nor did she shake her head. However, her expression was very grim.
Sister Yu said in a hushed tone, “Ever since she gave birth, the Young Madam seems to have changed into a different person. Did you notice that even the Young Master seems to have alienated her? In fact, even the helpers in the house have noticed something strange. After all, remember how the Young Master used to treat the Young Madam in the past? Everything has changed. For some reason, there’s this tension that seems to loom over the house…”
Jiang Jin still did not say anything. The doubts in her heart kept growing as she looked at her great-grandson who was giggling happily. Before everything was confirmed, she could not say anything, not even to Sister Yu.. After all, if there was even the slightest misstep, chaos would descend on the house.
