Chapter 136 What are you going to do? Are you going to deny me as your mother for Gu Wanzhou?
Linhui Hall
After the maid returned to reply, Mrs. Wang was ready to go. But after waiting for more than three quarters of an hour, Ji Nanzheng still didn't come. She was already furious, and now she was even more furious.
"Go and ask him whether he is coming or not. If he doesn't come, then he should never come again."
Nanny Yu quickly signaled to the servant, asking her to hurry up.
As soon as the maid turned around, she heard the servant's voice outside: "The general is here."
Mrs. Wang then threw a teacup, and with a "bang", the teacup exploded on the floor, and several fragments just splashed onto Ji Nanzheng's toes.
Ji Nanzheng looked at the fragments at his toes and frowned.
"Fourth Brother, you have become successful now. You don't care about the Duke's Mansion or your parents at all, right?"
"Mother, why are you doing this?"
"You still remember that I am your mother? Did you say that you didn't see Gu Wanzhou? What are you doing now?"
Mrs. Wang became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and in the end, she covered her chest with her hands.
She has been strong-willed throughout her life and considers the reputation of the Duke's Mansion more important than anything else.
However, his son, his most outstanding son, not only pretended to obey her but also did things that damaged the reputation of the Duke's Mansion.
When she heard about Juxian Building, she almost had a heart attack.
"You said in public that Gu Wanzhou didn't want to marry you. Do you still remember who you are? You are the Prince's Junior Tutor and the First General. For a woman, you disregarded your dignity and status. Do you know what you are doing?"
"Mother, I know it very well. I know it more clearly than ever before."
Ji Nanzheng saw that Madam Wang's chest was heaving with anger, and he couldn't bear it. But he couldn't blur the sharpness of the problem because he couldn't bear it and didn't want to hurt the relationship between mother and son.
He said with a resolute expression: "Mother, I am the prince's tutor and the first general, but if I can't even protect my wife and children, I am not even a real man. How can I be a tutor and a general?"
Faced with Ji Nanzheng's righteous questioning, Mrs. Wang's heart trembled violently.
Wife and children?
Did he know that Gu Wanzhou was pregnant?
When did he find out?
As questions popped up in Mrs. Wang's mind, she gave the answers herself.
He knew it, and he didn't just find out today.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang became furious. She jumped up from her chair and pointed at Ji Nanzheng angrily.
"You actually pretended to obey but secretly disobeyed, saying you didn't see him, but you were secretly having an affair with Gu Wanzhou?!"
As the mistress of the Duke's Mansion, Mrs. Wang's authority in this mansion is no less than that of the Duke, and she cannot tolerate such behavior of disobedience.
When Ji Nanzheng saw his old mother's reaction, he felt like his heart was being pulled by something.
He mentioned his wife and children, but Mrs. Wang didn't even ask a question about the children?
She didn't ask Wan Zhou, and he understood, but she didn't even ask about the child?
"Mother, Wan Zhou is pregnant?" Ji Nanzheng said in a deep voice.
"Don't change the subject. Tell me, were you secretly meeting with Gu Wanzhou while coaxing me?" Mrs. Wang was still immersed in the anger of being deceived by Ji Nanzheng.
"So, mother knew that Wanzhou was pregnant, right?" Ji Nanzheng answered the question irrelevantly again, and his heart had already begun to feel cold.
"So, it was because your mother knew Wan Zhou was pregnant that she let Wan Zhou leave in the heavy snow without waiting for her son to come back?" Ji Nanzheng's voice was not loud, and every word seemed to be wrapped in a layer of bitterness.
"You..., I..." Mrs. Wang suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Ji Nanzheng in disbelief.
What does he mean?
Did he know that the reason Gu Wanzhou was asked to leave was because she was pregnant?
Mrs. Wang actually heard it clearly, but she hoped that she had heard it wrongly. She glanced at Nanny Yu beside her and saw that Nanny Yu had a bitter face, and her heart sank.
Mrs. Wang's heart trembled and she almost fell down. Nanny Yu rushed forward to support her.
She was unwilling to give up and wanted to confirm it again. She looked at Ji Nanzheng's expression carefully and seriously. The first glance made her even more frightened. Ji Nanzheng's face was the gloomiest she had ever seen.
There was nothing to say, he knew it.
Yes, he mentioned his wife and children, and clearly stated that Gu Wanzhou was pregnant, but she was only busy getting angry and scolding him, and didn't ask a single question about the pregnancy?
Even a not very smart person would have guessed it, let alone her son, who has a dull mind but works faster than many people. How could he not have thought of it?
If she asked anything like "wife and children, pregnancy", or showed some surprise, she would not be suspected.
Oh my god, I was on guard so carefully, but I didn't expect that I would be the one to be exposed in the end.
Kick-ing out a pregnant daughter-in-law is such a shameful thing to do.
She knew her son best. Not to mention that his heart was now hanging on Gu Wanzhou, even if he had no feelings for her at all, he would choose to take responsibility and not divorce her when he knew she was pregnant.
It was because she knew her son's character that she had no choice but to do something that she herself despised.
Mrs. Wang had seen many big scenes and dealt with many difficult things, but at the moment she felt panicked.
She didn't know how to explain to her son, and she didn't have the face to explain.
Mrs. Wang walked up to Ji Nanzheng trembling.
"Zheng'er, listen to what your mother says..."
"Mother!" Ji Nanzheng interrupted fiercely, staring at Madam Wang with a cold gaze: "That's my child, your grandson, how can you be so cruel?!"
He was too angry and too disappointed.
Mrs. Wang was wrong to secretly take out the divorce letter and let Wan Zhou leave. He didn't want to hurt the harmony between mother and son, so he didn't say a word of blame.
His mother didn't like Wanzhou. Although he didn't agree with her point of view, he chose to understand her position and tried to reconcile them through his own efforts.
But he didn't expect that his mother would even give up his child. How could she be so cruel as to not want even his own flesh and blood!
Wan Zhou must have known about it too. How heartbroken must she have been at that time?
No wonder Wan Zhou was so determined. Why should she stay with such a Duke's Mansion, such a mother-in-law, and a husband who doesn't know how to love?
Mrs. Wang had never seen Ji Nanzheng like this before. She had never even seen Ji Nanzheng angry with her.
Facing such a Ji Nanzheng, her heart was trembling.
She knew that once Ji Nanzheng knew about this, it would cause an uproar.
But I didn't expect it to reach this level. Ji Nanzheng's eyes were locked tightly, his gaze was stern, and his whole body exuded a chill.
Mrs. Wang was really a little scared.
"Zheng'er, listen to your mother..." Mrs. Wang softened her voice and tried to explain.
"What else do you want to say? Are you still going to say things that are good for me and for the Duke's Mansion?" Ji Nanzheng interrupted Mrs. Wang again without leaving any room for her to speak.
"You sent away my wife, my children, my happiness. Are you doing this for my own good?!"
"I have respected you since I was a child. How can I expect my son to respect you when you do something like this?!"
"Then what are you going to do? Are you going to deny me as your mother just for the sake of Gu Wanzhou?" Madam Wang looked at him coldly.
She knew she was wrong, but she couldn't stand her son's bad attitude towards her and exploded.
