The Sickly Scion's Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

However, Madam Wang only pointed at Wang Mingan and refused to take the brush.

Wang Mingan also kept struggling.

Xuanyuan Ce gestured for Chu Feng to remove the cloth from his mouth.

As soon as he was free, Wang Mingan’s eyes turned red. “What do you want to ask? My mother doesn’t know anything.”

“Your mother used to be close to Madam Shen. No one knows more about Madam Shen than her, right?”

Wang Mingan paused and looked at Madam Wang.

Madam Wang was once Miss Wang’s personal maidservant, even before Miss Wang married into the Shen family and became Madam Shen. The two of them grew up together.

Miss Wang was kind and generous. She treated Madam Wang as her biological sister. After Madam Wang married a steward in the Wang family’s shop, Miss Wang removed her from her life of servitude.

However, Madam Wang was worried about Miss Wang staying alone in the back residence of the Shen family. After she got married, she still served her.

Later on, Wang Mingan’s father died in an accident, and Madam Wang had no intention of leaving.

With her by her side, she helped Miss Wang block Madam Chen’s schemes and difficulties a few times, but at the same time, she angered Madam Chen.

It was so simple for Madam Chen to get rid of a servant. She casually found a reason to steal and sold Madam Wang.

When Miss Wang received the news and rushed over, Madam Wang had already been drugged and was pressed to the ground.

Miss Wang was so anxious that she went forward to help her block it. The old woman who hit her deliberately killed her. How could Miss Wang, who had been pampered and spoiled since she was young, withstand this beating?

She protected Madam Wang, but she was seriously injured. Madam Wang was not a slave, so Madam Chen had no right to sell her, but she chased her out.

At that time, Wang Mingan was only two years old. It was Miss Wang who dragged her sickly body to find a doctor for Madam Wang to save her life.

She thought that the matter would pass just like that, but not long after, she heard that Miss Wang had passed away.

Madam Wang felt guilty. She felt that she had implicated her and made herself a sinner. She even perpetuated this guilt on Wang Mingan.

She ruthlessly forced her son to study and take the imperial examination. She hoped that one day, Shen Pingxiu, who had betrayed Miss Wang, would receive the retribution he deserved.

The young Wang Mingan was bullied in a private school. When he returned, he cried and said that he didn’t want to study, but Madam Wang only treated his wounds while crying and turned a deaf ear to his words.

Gradually, Wang Mingan stopped talking about this. After being bullied, he stopped crying and came back to complain.

Seeing Madam Wang cry from heartache, he comforted her by saying that she had fallen. He used clumsy excuses again and again.

He knew that Madam Wang knew everything, but she had never said that he could stop studying.

Now that these people wanted to use him to threaten Madam Wang to betray Miss Wang, Wang Mingan also wanted to know who his mother would choose.

Just as he was thinking this, Madam Wang nodded.

She kowtowed to Xuanyuan Ce a few times and gestured with her hands.

Madam Wang did not know what Xuanyuan Ce wanted to ask, but she had let her son down too much. She could not harm him because of her selfishness.

Wang Mingan instantly burst into tears. He closed his eyes and choked. “My mother said that as long as you don’t hurt me, she’ll say anything.”

Xuanyuan Ce asked, “Someone once drugged Madam Shen with infertility medicine. Who cured her?”

Madam Wang was stunned. Clearly, she did not expect Xuanyuan Ce to ask this. She reached out and gestured.

Wang Mingan said, “Miss went to Hidden Spirit Temple to burn incense and met a divine doctor. The divine doctor helped Miss detoxify the poison.”

Before Shen Pingxiu was in high school, he had sweet-talked Miss Wang, coaxing her into falling in love with him.

Later on, Shen Pingxiu married his wife, Madam Chen, because she had been single for many years. Miss Wang also felt that it was her fault and would go to Hidden Spirit Temple to burn incense and pray to Buddha from time to time.

Bearing a child had become Miss Wang’s obsession. Little did she know that she had long been poisoned.

It was not until she met Ji Luo, who was recuperating in the back mountain of the Hidden Spirit Temple, that she realized that it was impossible for her to be pregnant in this lifetime.

“Back then, when Madam Shen gave birth, was it also that divine doctor who appeared to save her?”

Madam Wang nodded.

Xuanyuan Ce had already guessed this, but he just wanted to confirm it again.

“Did she say why she helped your young lady like this?”

After thinking about it, he concluded that Ji Luo must have known that the people chasing after her were about to find her.

Even under such circumstances, she still stayed in the capital for three months.

She only left Chang’an Capital after Madam Wang gave birth safely. There must be a reason why they had to do this.

Moreover, the child had disappeared. Instead of looking for the child, she returned to the Hidden Spirit Temple and set fire to remove any traces.

There were only two possibilities. Either she knew that she could not find her child, or she had sent her child away herself.

Madam Wang’s pupils constricted, and her thoughts drifted to 17 years ago.

That day, Miss brought her to the Hidden Spirit Temple to offer incense and let her go to the Release Pool at the back of the mountain as usual.

Just as they were about to leave, a woman’s voice suddenly sounded above their heads. “It’s a blessing for you to have no children. There’s no need to force it.”

Miss Wang looked up in the direction of the voice and saw a beautiful woman lying lazily on a tree branch.

Before Miss Wang could speak.

The woman continued, “You’re destined to have no children. Even if you force it, you won’t be able to keep it. If you can’t keep it, you’ll even harm your life. Even so, do you still want it?”
