Mrs. Xing's behavior was crude and disorganized, so Jia Lian was naturally different.
Ever since he hanged Yang, the problem of Jia Cong has existed. Since it already exists, it cannot be ignored, otherwise if it continues to ferment over time, no one knows what trouble it will eventually cause.
Jia Lian is going to solve this problem tonight.
There was no serious look on his face until he saw Jia Cong crying, then he frowned slightly and said: "A man, if you have something on your mind, just say it. Why are you crying?"
Jia Lian's voice seemed to have a great deterrent effect on Jia Cong. He shook slightly and wiped his eyes, and he stopped crying.
"Cong'er, I had your aunt executed, do you hate me?"
The simple yet frightening question made Jia Cong's expression immediately tense.
He is seven or eight years old, has read some books, and already has a preliminary understanding and judgment of worldly affairs.
What's more, in the past six months, he has experienced joys and sorrows and ups and downs. The death of his biological mother and the attitude of people around him have made him have to think a lot at his current age.
So he knew that this issue was very important to him, so important that it might affect his fate, life and death.
He remembered what the wet nurse and others had said to him, and subconsciously shook his head.
"Then do you think I did the right thing by executing your aunt?"
The question that penetrated even more deeply into his heart made Jia Cong instantly clenched his fists.
Is it right? Can he get it right? No matter how young he was, he knew that the woman ordered to be hanged by Jia Lian was one of the most important people to him in the world.
But isn't it right?
Everyone around him told him that it was his aunt who deserved death.
Even Mrs. Xing, his aunt personally told him that he should try his best to behave in front of her in the future and please her. As his aunt who was closer to his aunt, she warned him that his aunt had committed a heinous crime and deserved it.
She also called him a bastard born of an evil woman.
So many people had this attitude, and none of them felt that his second brother Lian did something wrong.
She had been the best to him since he was a child, and his favorite wet nurse also taught him to forget about that aunt. Anyway, she is not his mother. His mother is his wife, Mrs. Xing, and his brother is Jia Lian.
These two people are his closest relatives. From now on, he should and can only count on these two people. Only by redeeming the sins committed by his aunt in front of them can they take care of him regardless of their past grudges.
You must not be resentful. If you offend these two people again, they will have no way to survive...
So he didn't know whether it was right or not. He only knew that he really couldn't offend Jia Lian. He was also seriously afraid of Jia Lian in his heart, so he said in a low voice sincerely: "I don't think what the second brother did was wrong..."
At such a young age, it was easy for Jia Lian to see clearly whether what he said was sincere.
So he asked with a smile: "Since you don't hate me and don't think what I did is wrong, then why did you tell me about your aunt's death regardless of my critical illness and my wife's wishes? Don't you? Do you want me to make the decision for your aunt and you, and let me scold and deal with me?"
Jia Cong was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
He didn't know what he wanted to do by telling Jia She about his aunt's death.
He just felt that even if what they said was right, his aunt had been very good to him since he was a child. She served him with food and clothing, and then she died suddenly, which made him feel very sad.
Why didn't they tell Jia She, his father!
He didn't understand whether other people were close to him or not, but Jia She must be the person closest to him and the most important to him. Therefore, he always had the idea of telling his father about this, but he was just afraid of others. The pressure has never dared. Until today, when he went to pay his respects to Jia She, there happened to be no one around, so he couldn't help but say it.
But before Jia She could come to justice and tell him who was right and who was wrong, Jia She died.
Seeing that Jia Cong couldn't reply, Jia Lian asked coldly: "What, is it that your aunt taught you that you dare to do it but don't dare to admit it? As a man of my Jia family, I don't even dare to tell the truth with this little talent. ?
As you are, how can you avenge your aunt in the future? "
Mrs. Xing was so frightened that she hurriedly said: "Lian'er, you are too good at joking. You don't want to take revenge. She is just an insignificant and vicious prostitute, a person of the slave generation. If she dies, she will die."
You are his biological brother, how dare he disrespect you for this?
If he has this intention, he doesn't need anyone else. I'll have him killed first, lest this stupid thing born from an evil woman and ignorant of right and wrong tarnish the reputation of our Jia family. "
The stares and indifference Jia Cong had received in the past few days, the heart-wrenching questioning by Jia Lian tonight, and the humiliation by Mrs. Xing at this moment made him feel extremely painful due to mental pressure and self-esteem.
Finally he couldn't bear it anymore, he clenched his fist and rebuked for the first time: "Second brother, I never thought about revenge!! They all said that my aunt deserves to die, and I also know that she has done bad things to you, but... ...You are so cruel, so heartless, that is my aunt, my mother, how could you let someone strangle her to death, she is my mother..."
The courage was not enough for him to finish what he said, so as he spoke, he sat on the ground and cried sadly.
Never underestimate a child, he may think much more than you think.
It is impossible not to hate Jia Lian at all. However, Jia Cong really couldn't find how to hate him, and no one told him.
That day, he clearly begged Jia Lian not to kill his aunt, but Jia Lian ignored him and had him dragged away. Later, his aunt died. Therefore, this is the only place he can find to hate Jia Lian.
He is so cruel and heartless!
Jia Lian looked directly at Jia Cong, but his heart was far from the anger Mrs. Xing and others imagined.
He could see that the child Jia Cong was still innocent, not even as cunning and cunning as Jia Huan.
A deceitful person would never dare to reveal his true thoughts to his "enemy".
But on the face of it, Jia Lian still said coldly: "Cruel? Do you know that if I hadn't been lucky enough to see through your aunt's conspiracy, at this moment, my soul would have died under Jiuquan!"
At that time, will you ask your aunt why she was so cruel and killed me for no reason? "
Jia Cong just cried, but still listened to Jia Lian's words.
He didn't know that with his current mind, he really couldn't calculate this cruel reality. I knew I couldn't answer, so I could only cry to cover it up.
"Or do you think I maliciously framed your aunt? Is your aunt completely innocent of framing her to harm me?
If you have this intention, I can give you a chance. Tomorrow, I will help you call in all the witnesses that day, so that you can re-examine and clear the case for your aunt. Do you dare? "
"No……"
Jia Cong shook his head in panic.
That day, his aunt confessed in front of everyone that she was the one who poisoned Jia Lian. He was nearby and heard it with his own ears.
Moreover, he also heard the wet nurse and others explain that his aunt did this all for him and the family property...
A weak heart means a weak Qi, and this is true for everyone.
Even the little kid Jia Cong is no exception. He could not excuse his aunt at this point, and Jia Lian's cold eyes looking down at him, with a look of justice, made him feel that he too had committed a serious crime.
Jia Lian saw the look of regret on his face and knew that the time had come. He nodded to A Qi, who then came over with a glass of wine.
"Lian'er, what are you..."
Mrs. Xing didn't know why Jia Lian was talking nonsense with Jia Cong. In her eyes, if she didn't like a star like Jia Cong, she could just clean him up and send him away casually later.
At this time, he was very surprised to see Jia Lian stop questioning Jia Cong and let the maid pour wine.
Jia Lian did not answer, but took out a small package of yellow paper from his arms, and calmly explained to Jia Cong, who was also at a loss: "This is the arsenic that your aunt did not use up that day, and later she put it in Qiutong." In my room, I wanted to poison me and put the blame on Qiu Tong."
Hearing this, both Mrs. Xing and Jia Cong suddenly shrank their necks.
Poison, this thing is really terrifying.
But what was even more shocking was what happened later. Jia Lian slowly opened the paper package, and the powdery substance inside gently shook into the wine glass in front of him...
"Lian'er, no, no matter what, he is also your biological brother. If he makes a mistake, you can hit him and scold him...
If you kill him, you'll be in big trouble. "
Mrs. Xing stood up nervously. He thought that Jia Lian wanted to use Yang's method to poison Jia Cong.
Jia Lian frowned and said, "Madam, please sit down. This is a matter between brothers Cong'er and me. It's better for Madam not to interfere."
Mrs. Xing's expression changed several times. She had known that once Jia She died, Jia Lian would not respect her so much.
Yes, to Jia Cong, Yingchun and others, she is still the legitimate mother-in-law. The aunt's mother is their maternal clan, and the aunt's brothers are their uncles. Therefore, the aunt is the real and only mother!
It's a pity that although she is technically Jia Lian's legitimate mother, Jia Lian was born to his first wife.
Therefore, Jia Lian's natal family belongs to the Zhang family, not her Xing family. Jia Lian's biological uncles are also two masters of the Zhang family, not her brother Xing Dequan!
In other words, although Jia Lian still respects her as his mother, strictly speaking, she can only be regarded as Jia Lian's stepmother.
With Jia Lian's current status, he naturally had this attitude toward her as a helpless stepmother...
Although it was difficult to accept, in the end, Mrs. Xing sat down silently.
She didn't want to fight with Jia Lian, she wanted to keep her position as the eldest wife of Rongguo Mansion safely. For this reason, even if I lose a little dignity, anyway, I will lose my dignity and dignity in front of Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others, not once or twice.
Although she sat down, Mrs. Xing still moved her stool, wanting to be farther away from the poisonous wine, for fear of getting even a little bit.
