“Since Mother’s heart aches for her, you can take her place.”

Madam Jiang’s eyes widened as she gasped. “You, what did you say?”

“I said that since Mother and Auntie Li have a deep relationship and are like sisters, if your heart really aches for her, you can kneel for her until tomorrow!” Jiang Yanshen’s cold voice sounded without any warmth. He called her Mother, but his cold attitude was even worse than towards strangers.

“You—” Madam Jiang was so angry that she could not stand steadily.

Li Ruzhu immediately supported her and looked at Jiang Yanshen pitifully. “Big Brother Yanshen…”

Jiang Yanshen’s hawk-like eyes flashed, and his cold gaze made Li Ruzhu fall silent. She could not help but feel angry.

Why couldn’t his attitude towards her be better after so many years?

Jiang Yanshen narrowed his eyes indifferently and ignored the resentment in Li Ruzhu’s eyes. He closed the door and could not help but cough. His pale face was dyed with an abnormal red color, and his mental state was visibly not good.

Even so, Madam Jiang and Li Ruzhu could not tell that he was uncomfortable.

No one would ever be able to tell.

There once was a person who could tell that he was not feeling well and had stayed by his bed all night in a panic, as if he could die at any moment.

Jiang Yanshen lay on the bed again. He thought of the person who had once been so worried about him that she was unable to sleep the entire night. Now, this person would either call him a dog of a man or curse him to die whenever she saw him…

His pale lips slowly curled into a mocking smile, and he fell asleep unknowingly.

… .

Madam Jiang and Li Ruzhu were speechless in front of Jiang Yanshen. Thus, they went downstairs to ask Auntie Li about the exact situation.

After finding out that Lin Chaoyan was behind this, Madam Jiang could no longer control her anger and went upstairs.

Li Ruzhu followed beside her and said indignantly, “They’ve gone overboard, but… Big Brother Yanshen is going to hold a wedding with Lin Qingqian. If we make her Aunt unhappy now, Big Brother Yanshen will be even angrier.”

Madam Jiang’s anger originally only reached her chest, but now, it surged to the top of her head. She no longer cared about her image as a noblewoman or her upbringing. She slammed on the door.

“Coming, coming, which ghosts are you trying to wake this late at night?” Lin Chaoyan opened the door and saw Madam Jiang and Li Ruzhu. She immediately put on a fake smile. “Aiyo, Older Sister, I haven’t seen you for a day. You’re finally back.”

The words “Older Sister” made Madam Jiang so angry that she wanted to kill someone. She could not even pretend to be nice anymore. “Madam Lin, I’m not familiar with you. Please call me Madam Jiang!

Also… Lin Qingqian has married into our Jiang family. Her family name is now Jiang, not Lin. If you want to stir up trouble and gossip, please scram back to your Yushan.”

The smile on Lin Chaoyan’s face darkened. After a few seconds of silence, she rolled up her sleeves and gritted her teeth. “Madam——Jiang! Ptui!

I’m giving you some face by calling you Older Sister. Who do you think you are! So what if the Jiang family is rich? Do you think our Qingqian really wants to marry into your family? Back then, if not for the old granny personally going to Yushan to pick her up, we wouldn’t have deigned to come here!”

Lin Chaoyan’s voice was loud and her aura was strong. She rolled up her sleeves and placed her hands on her hips. She was a tyrant of the countryside and no one dared to provoke her.

Lin Qingqian was about to take a shower when she heard the commotion and came out to see Madam Jiang and Li Ruzhu standing at the door.

It was obvious that it was about Jiang Yanshen punishing Auntie Li.

This Auntie Li usually relied on Madam Jiang’s protection to mock her.

“You said that I was sowing discord and gossiping! Ptui—” Lin Chaoyan spat on Madam Jiang’s face. “Don’t you know what kind of person you are and what you’ve done? Aren’t you just a little rich? Do you really think your son is the Emperor and you’re the Empress Dowager showing off? I… ptui ptui ptui ptui!!”

Madam Jiang had lived the life of a wealthy lady for decades. She was usually flattered wherever she went. When had she ever been spat on and suffered such humiliation?

At that moment, she felt extremely embarrassed and angry. She raised her hand and swung it at Lin Zhaoyan—
