The surprised expression on Mother Liang's face was even worse. She was holding the letter as if she couldn't believe it, "Madam...are you finally willing to talk to me?"
Mrs. Qi raised her eyes and glanced at her, then slowly leaned into the chair and sighed leisurely after a long time.
"You're right, I'm just fighting for a breath," Mrs. Qi's eyes passed through Liang's mother's shoulder and fell on the void outside, as if she wanted to see something somewhere through the void.
Personally, "As you said, it's not that I really don't understand, I just don't want to believe it."
Originally, seeing Ms. Qi crying or even seeing her desperate look, Mother Liang never felt any discomfort in her heart.
But at this moment, Mr. Qi suddenly showed signs of awakening, but Mother Liang felt her heart hurt terribly.
She took a step forward and walked in front of Mrs. Qi, "Madam, actually the reality is not that difficult to accept. You just need to think about it. No matter what, that person was not born to you.
No one can be sure where human nature comes from, but she was born like this and it has nothing to do with you, madam. It's just that for the past fifteen years, you didn't know that she was not your daughter.
You just tried your best as a mother, so what's wrong with that? It's just a big dream now, and now you're fully awake."
Mrs. Qi looked at Mother Liang in front of her and suddenly smiled sadly, "You! It's easy to say this, but it's so difficult to really think like this."
Mother Liang moved forward again, until she reached Qi's side. Tears rolled down her eyes, "Madam, is it difficult? Can it be more difficult than now?"
Probably because she expressed the thought in her heart, Mrs. Qi felt a sense of relief, but at the same time she also felt an indescribable feeling of emptiness.
She stood up holding Liang's mother's hand and walked slowly to the bedroom.
"Over the years, things have been smooth sailing for me. I used to be a girl's family, and I was used to being proud of it. It's just that the marriage was a bit unsatisfactory. But after all, the Xie family is not bad at all, but there is just a little discord.
Although I had a bad relationship with my husband, it was not a big problem. After all, I had children by my side, and I was still the wife with the highest status in the house, the mistress of the house.
How majestic it is to head the family as the second son-in-law, that An family..."
Speaking of the person who came to show off her power today, Mrs. Qi sneered, "Who is she? Come to think of it, in my eyes, she is not even worthy of carrying my shoes."
This was indeed a bit unpleasant to say, but Mother Liang did not refute it.
Gein, in her opinion, Qi Shi really thought so in her heart, and she did not say anything wrong.
Although she doesn't think it's right.
"As for the Yingying Yanyan in Xie Maocai's backyard, except for the most ambitious one, the others are nothing. Look at it now, even if I don't take care of it, aren't all of them successful?
Made each wood carving?"
Mother Liang helped her sit down by the bed and said warmly: "No matter what, you are still the aunt of the Qi family and the second wife of the Xie family. I don't dare to do anything to you, and the people below don't dare to do anything to you either."
How to mistreat you? Madam, you are so smart, you must know this."
Mr. Qi nodded lightly, "Otherwise I wouldn't be so stubborn now."
She sighed softly again, as if she wanted to expel the air that was blocked in her chest.
"Is she really proud of being in the East Palace now?"
After asking, I found that Mother Liang didn't speak for a while.
Then he smiled and said: "Tell me! You really can't bear to hide it like this. For such a long time, others don't know, and this house has never restricted your freedom. How can you still not know?"
Besides, it’s not like you didn’t make any good friends in the Qi family before, so why can’t you find out this?”
Mother Liang sighed softly, and then said: "Since Madam really wants to know, I can only tell you what I heard."
With that said, he told Mr. Qi all the news he had learned.
"Speaking of which, our girl's ability is one thing, but her luck is also really good. After this little New Year's banquet, she was the only one left."
After Liang's mother finished speaking, she noticed that Mr. Qi glanced at her, with a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
"Madam, this slave said something wrong."
Mrs. Qi smiled and said: "It's not that you are wrong, but you are who you are, so you can't see anything else.
If it were Sun Wuer who was in front of me today, I would never talk about her like this to you."
Sun Wuer was the personal maid who grew up with the Qi family. Later she came to the Xie family and became the housekeeper and lady, and then...
Later, things happened with Aunt Zhang, and there was no news from her again.
Mother Liang has never been as favored by the Qi family as Mother Sun, so she was not annoyed when she heard this and said with a smile: "I have always been stupid, madam, please don't laugh at me."
Mother Liang shook her head gently, "It's not that you are stupid, but you don't know her well. She has been a scheming person since she was a child. I didn't know before that she was responsible for many things in the yard.
It's just that I didn't notice it, but Sun Wuer saw the clues at a glance. Although I am a stubborn person, I don't have any meticulous methods. I am not that smart."
Mother Liang was obviously surprised to hear Mrs. Qi commenting on herself like this, but she looked at her and found it funny, "You don't have to be like this, I know better than anyone else what kind of person I am, so...
"
She smiled again, "I'm really not that smart, otherwise Xie Maocai wouldn't have discovered the affair so quickly and didn't even know how to cover it up.
But Sun Wu'er is more meticulous than me, her thoughts are more delicate than mine, and her vision is more vicious than mine. She can see her methods and her schemes at a glance, and can quickly work with her to control our Yihe.
The administration of the hall must be obedient."
The woman behind her naturally refers to Jiang Shuhua.
Others can call her Jiang Liangdi, call her Jiang Shuhua, or even call her the adopted daughter of the Xie family.
But Qi had no choice.
After all, I have really loved my daughter for so many years. Although I have really figured it out now, there is no way to switch identities instantly.
However, many things over the years, when I think about them carefully, I feel a little regretful and sad, so I can only use the word "she" instead.
When Mama Liang heard this, she felt a little chilly in her heart.
She knew that Jiang Shuhua always helped the Qi family with some things in the past, and those things even included taking care of Xie Yuncang's concubines.
But what Liang's mother didn't know was that Jiang Shuhua was able to plan these things at such a young age.
As Qi said, Qi is not a smart person. In fact, she is not either.
Even when the old man of the Qi family chose her to serve the Qi family, he admired her duty and honesty.
Therefore, she only felt a little scary that Jiang Shuhua was so precocious and scheming.
She couldn't help but hold Qi's hand.
Ms. Qi half leaned on the pillow and put a little pressure on her hands, which was a response to her.
"Don't be nervous. I have really let go now and will never think about anything else." Ms. Qi's expression became more and more serious, "I said what I just said to tell you that although I don't know her very well,
But I also have a 70-80% understanding.
With this 70-80% understanding, you can guess a lot of things, such as the little New Year's Eve banquet you just mentioned."
Mother Liang thought for a while and then understood, "Does Madam mean that what happened at the New Year's Eve banquet was actually her fault?"
Mrs. Qi nodded lightly, "It's almost the same. It's only now that I jumped out of the place where I was originally trapped that I suddenly realized that I am afraid that I have indeed thought wrong."
