Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 176.3: Selfishness

Jing Wan originally also wanted to follow over, but she wouldn’t be of any help anyways, so having second thoughts, she immediately called for someone to have the medicine prepared for accident prevention all fetched over.

Some common medicine that can be used for preserving the fetus, they for the most part all had, but for herbal medicines, perhaps each doctor’s prescription was different. As such, Jing Wan didn’t feel reassured. If by chance their family didn’t have a complete set, what should they do? It was better to borrow some of what they didn’t have from the other families. That way, if they just happened to need it, they won’t be scrambling to look for it, even wasting time. Thinking to here, she immediately walked to Luo Old Madam’s side, explaining her thoughts.

Upon hearing, Luo Old Madam also immediately instructed someone to handle it.

Have to say, this matter actually happened very fast, and the process wasn’t long either. Luo Pei Shan had just sat down and took a sip of tea, when he heard that something happened outside. When he hastily rushed out, he only saw Luo Jing Bo’s back figure. Furrowing his brows, he went out the main gate, and hearing Luo Old Madam’s words, “When going to ask for medicine, tell each family, as long as they provide us medicine, no matter how much, this old man all owe them a favor.” A favor from the Head Minister of Appointment truly made people drool.

Sun Old Madam, seeing the Luo family’s conduct, then looking to the one from their family, who was even the actual mother, why was the discrepancy just this big? “Send your madam back. In the future, without my permission, she’s forbidden to set foot outside the courtyard. Also you all, clearly knowing she’s ill, yet allow her to be willful. After returning, each person gets ten beatings with the rod.”

Sun Old Madam has looked after these annoying matters for more than half her life, so she truly didn’t want to bother with them anymore. She originally thought to just let her freely mess around at home however she pleases, but who knew that as soon as they came out, in a blink of an eye, she would stir up such an incident. If not for her asking by chance, seeing that when they were about to reach the temporary imperial palace, she’d strangely just changed into her formal gown, and worrying that she would cause trouble, rushed over for a look—————It doesn’t matter if she dies, just worried that her death will taint the Luo family’s clean reputation, and also Yi Jia and her husband’s reputation. Her coming to the Luo family, regardless of what reason, so long as something happens to her, it all won’t be good for the Luo family. But for Sun Old Madam, as the mother-in-law, however she sorts her out or teach her a lesson, it all didn’t matter. Even if her daughter-in-law dies, letting her shoulder a crime of hounding her daughter-in-law to death, it also didn’t matter. In any case, she was already someone that was already buried up to the neck^[1].

After taking care of the Ding Duchess, Sun Old Madam finally walked before the Luo family, “In-law family, this matter is my fault. I should’ve long had her locked up. That daughter-in-law of mine is inflicted with hysteria, believing whatever she thinks is happening in her head all day, unable to listen to other people’s words. Whatever she’s said, please don’t take it to heart. As for Yi Jia, we all hope she and the child are both well…………..it’s our family that is sorry to your family.” Sun Old Madam was somewhat unable to continue. Of the Luo family’s great-grandchildren generation, not a single one has been born yet. The one in Yi Jia’s stomach was just the second one, so the Luo family naturally care very much. If lost, it won’t just be the sin of the main offender, it’ll also be their entire Ding Duke Manor’s sin.

Speaking of which, Luo Old Madam had married even earlier than her, yet Luo Old Madam’s eldest son was younger than hers by a large margin. As a result, while she herself already has several great-grandchildren, hers still weren’t born yet. Just don’t know whether in the early years, was it because she didn’t want children, or had difficulty getting pregnant.

Even if Sun Old Madam was amicable and polite, Luo Old Madam’s complexion still wasn’t too good. “In-law family doesn’t need to say anything anymore, see whether or not Yi Jia’s child can be saved first. If the child can be saved, I’ll just say this, unless her mother dies, otherwise, I won’t let her go back again. This also just happens to match her own wish as well. Our Luo family won’t shoulder that reputation in vain.”

Sun Old Madam however nodded, “She has a bunch of people serving her, so naturally don’t need Yi Jia for anything. Properly tending to the fetus is the most important right now. Even if you allow her to return, I still won’t allow it. I just have Yi Jia this one di born granddaughter, and I’m also waiting to hold a (outer) great-grandson. I’ll be going back first then.”

“How about coming in for a sit?”

“No need. Just arrived, so there’s still matters to take care of, and also, on Yi Jia’s side, I just won’t add to the trouble, just troubling in-law family to later inform me of Yi Jia’s situation. When time comes, I’ll come see her again. And that person, just completely give up on.”

The last line, although sounded unclear, they all understood her meaning. It was nothing more than just letting Sun Yi Jia don’t count on her mother anymore. Once one completely disregards her, and don’t take her seriously anymore, then one will no longer feel heartbroken and sad.

“Alright, then won’t be sending you off.”

Sun Old Madam nodded, and as she turned, she glanced at Jing Wan, “It’s our family’s Lin boy that lacks the good fortune, but having such a mother, it’s only natural he would lose good fortune. Fortunately, Yi Jia is able to marry into your family. Between the siblings, with one having the good fortune, I am content, and this life of mine also won’t be considered regretful.” With that said, she turned and left.

Speaking of which, Sun Old Madam was also truly considered to have ‘a hall full of descendants’, and moreover, was even four generations under one roof. But in Jing Wan’s eyes, her rear view carried a bit of bleakness. Heard that recently she even frequently shut herself in her courtyard in the Ding Duke Manor, never going out, entirely a ‘lonesome in old age’ state. Clearly, someone like her should just play with one’s grandchildren and enjoy the bliss of family love in her elderly years.

The doctor first used silver needles to stabilize the fetus for Sun Yi Jia, then hurriedly prescribed medicine. Reality proved that Jing Wan’s thinking very much had foresight. The Luo family, sure enough, was missing one type of medicine, and the servant just happened to hurriedly rushed back with it. After the doctor confirmed it, they immediately went to boil the medicine. Even so, Jing Wan still kept an eye out, letting Gong mama check once more. It’s not that she believed the family that provided the medicine would do something to the medicine, but rather there were truly too many shameful secrets in the rear manor. One was just afraid that even those people themselves don’t even know that there were already problems with the medicine. If by chance this were to be used on………Jing Wan at this time had no choice but to guard against, and can’t be careless in the slightest.

In this aspect, Gong mama naturally was very good in.

Sun Yi Jia’s fetus was stabilized for the time being. However, according to that doctor, it was also temporary. Before the fetus completely stabilizes, the slightest disturbance in her emotions will all lead to a miscarriage, and moreover, the kind where it can’t be saved. Even in the future, all still need to be extra careful. After all, this time, there was quite a bit of blood.

After sending away the doctor, Sun Yi Jia was pacified by the Luo family one after another. In addition to her own grandmother’s words, as well as considering that she nearly lost her child, she forcibly stabilized her emotions, and gradually, it also settled down for real. In reality, without needing for her grandmother to say anything, she has already thoroughly given up on her mother. She also won’t go and contemplate over why her mother would become like this today. In any case, it won’t be because of her. In her mother’s eyes, she wasn’t important to that degree.

[1] Meaning she old and about to die soon anyways.
