The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 223 The Truth (1)

The night was dark, the sky was snowing, and it was extremely cold.

In a remote and dilapidated house in Shen's mansion, Mrs. Wang was sitting on a small kang in plain clothes.But after a few days, she no longer looks like the decent official wife she used to be, her pale face has no trace of blood, she looks old and desperate.

The dilapidated door creaked open, and Shen De'an walked in alone.

Wang looked up at him, and asked directly, "Are you here to press me about Jiang again?"

Shen De'an's eyes were bloodshot, and his face was gloomy. He didn't even look at Wang Shi, but asked coldly: "Do you think that if you dismissed those old people back then, it means that you have nothing to prove? Do you have the guts to harm my mother?" Son, I don't believe that Ah Yun's death had nothing to do with you."

Wang Shi smiled coldly at Shen De'an: "It's been so many years, you can't forget Jiang Shi for a moment, right?"

Only then did Shen De'an look at Mrs. Wang, with overwhelming resentment in his scarlet eyes: "Tell me, did you kill Ah Yun?"

Seeing Shen De'an getting angry, Mrs. Wang simply turned her head away, but kept silent with tears in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Shen De'an lost his patience, he stepped up to Wang Shi in a few steps, grabbed her collar fiercely, and lifted Wang Shi up from the kang.

Shen De'an stared at her, and asked sharply, "Tell me, is it you?"

Seeing that Wang Shi still refused to speak, Shen De'an was so angry that he pinched her neck with both hands, his eyes were red, his chest heaved violently because of anger, and his innocent knuckles tightened hard.

Wang Shi was like a hen waiting to be slaughtered, instinctively struggled a few times, then lost all strength, and only let out a faint "ho ho" sound from her throat.

Just as she was about to die, Shen De'an let go of her hand.

Mrs. Wang lay limp on the kang, gasping for breath, and when she passed her breath, she turned her head and smiled slightly at Shen De'an: "You are so reluctant to pinch me to death because you don't understand Jiang's death. Are you willing?"

She struggled to sit up and laughed madly: "Hahaha, I just won't tell you."

Shen De'an stood on the ground blankly, two lines of clear tears flowed from his cloudy eyes: "I hate myself for not seeing your vicious intentions clearly all these years."

He looked at Mrs. Wang: "If Ah Yun hadn't been kind enough to buy you back from your cruel parents back then, you would have been resold by those people long ago. It was Ah Yun. After saving you, she treats you kindly, trusts you, and treats you like a real sister. I really don't understand how there can be such a wolf-hearted and scheming person like you in the world. .”

As he said that, Shen De'an glanced at Wang with disgust: "Now that things have come to an end, I don't have to listen to your own confession. For the sake of the child, I will leave you a cheap life, and you will live here and live on your own. Destroy yourself."

After finishing speaking, Shen De'an turned around and left.

Wang wailed at his back and said, "I am a wolf-hearted dog, and I am deeply scheming, but isn't it all because I fell in love with you? If it wasn't because I fell in love with you, I would Why bother to go out of your way to harm my benefactor?"

"In the past 20 years, I have worked so hard to serve you and have children for you, but you only have that Jiang family in your heart. Even if you flatter me to be your wife, you are just worried that you will marry someone else and let the Jiang family leave it to you. The precious daughter who is under you is wronged. In your heart, how have you ever treated me as a real wife?"

The howling cold wind mixed with the rustling snow blew the face wet and cold, and Shen De'an walked staggeringly in the vast snow field, his mind was full of the gentle voice of his ex-wife Jiang Shi.

Her beloved wife is too kind, too kind to be wary of anyone.And he was too innocent to allow such a viper and vicious woman to harm his wife and daughter by his side without even noticing.

When Jingshu heard the news of Wang's suicide, she was sorting out the accounts.

She gently closed the account book, and only asked the mother-in-law who came to report the news: "How are father and siblings?"

The mother-in-law of Shen's residence who came to report the letter replied: "Master is ill, young ladies and young masters are in great grief."

Jing Shu nodded, dismissed the old woman, and retreated to the maids and maids in the room, opened the account book again, and read it carefully.

She was watching precisely.Suddenly, the account book in front of her was closed, and then she was carried into Li Ling's arms.

He hugged her quietly, but she was bored in his arms and just let him hold her.

"If you feel uncomfortable, just cry out. I'm the only one here." Li Ling said softly in her ear.

Jingshu's tears finally welled up, and she fell in his arms and said: "I really don't understand, my mother treated her so kindly back then, all these years, my father and I also respect her, we didn't feel sorry for her Why is she so vicious?"

She raised her head, looked at Li Ling with teary eyes and asked, "Tell me, why did she do this? Why did she make my house like this?"

Li Ling stretched out his hand to try his wife's tears, and replied: "People's hearts are sinister. It's not that you treat people well, and others will definitely accept them. It's because you are too kind, and you always think too well of others."

Li Ling was right, she thought too well of others.Not only her, but her biological mother and her father are all simple-minded people.

She followed her parents.

Now that she has tasted the heart-wrenching pain, she understands the sinister truth of the human heart.

"Now, I'm just worried about my father. I don't know how sad he will be when he learns that Mrs. Wang has harmed our mother and daughter like this. He's getting old, and I'm worried that he won't be able to bear it." She looked at Li Ling and asked. : "You said, if I tell the truth like this, isn't it too cruel to my father?"

Li Ling replied: "Father-in-law will definitely be sad when he learns the truth, but even so, it's better than letting him be deceived by such a femme fatale all the time."

He patted his wife on the shoulder: "You did the right thing."

Jing Shu wiped away tears: "I can't let go of my younger brothers and sisters. After all, I killed their mother. I'm afraid they will remember me. I really don't know how to face them in the future."

Li Ling replied: "Don't be afraid, I will face it with you."

Whenever she encounters setbacks and difficulties, as long as Li Ling is by her side, she can feel at ease. Although Li Ling is not good at speaking, the phrase "don't be afraid" can always drive away the haze in her heart.

Li Ling pushed his wife down on the chair, poured a cup of tea himself, and brought it to her mouth.

Jing Shu took the tea, took two sips, and when the warm liquid entered her stomach, she calmed down a bit: "I want to go back to my mother's house."

After all, she can't rest assured.

Li Ling looked at his wife and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."
