Chapter 367 I will let Tang'er call you "Old Lady"

Marquis Yong'an took several deep breaths, and no one else dared to make a sound, not even the general Jiang Mingli.

The old lady seemed to feel that her eldest son's anger was a little too great, and her crying and complaining voice could not help but stagnate. She stroked her chest and raised her head weakly, her eyes red and full of vicissitudes.

"Da Lang, are you blaming me for being harsh on your daughter?" The old lady spoke with a look of disbelief and disappointment, her voice trembling slightly.

"I just didn't give your biological daughter that little bit of gold, and she mocked and ridiculed me. I was so angry that I almost ran to see your father!"

"You have a daughter who is the Protector of the Nation Princess. You are so glorious now, right? Even filial piety can be thrown to the dogs, right? Why don't you find a rope to strangle me to death!"

The old lady became more emotional as she spoke. She pounded her chest with her fists and her crying became louder.

Yong'an Hou was so angry that his body trembled, his fingers hanging at his sides clenched into fists, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"If mother wants to cry, go to the ancestral hall and let the Jiang family ancestors see how you, a clan woman, have ruined the family tradition!" Marquis Yong'an spoke with a choked voice.

Although he was trying his best to suppress his anger, the veins on his forehead were throbbing slightly and his expression was angry.

The old lady, who was about to take a breath and continue crying, suddenly stopped crying and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, feeling somewhat guilty.

"You just want the one or two corals that the Queen gave to Tang'er. You are unhappy that Tang'er didn't give them to you. It's a pity that Tang'er has never returned to the mansion."

"You can blame her for not coming back for the New Year and not paying respects to you, but why did you use the money you gave to the servants as a New Year's gift to her? What was your intention?"

"Is our mansion unable to give you these few pieces of gold? Mother, are you blaming your sons for treating you harshly and not preparing gold and silver for you to spend during the New Year?"

"The other children all got golden plum blossom cakes, but you only gave those to Tang'er... Who did you humiliate? It was me, your son!"

"Tang'er's senior brothers include the emperor! The master of Tianji Pavilion! The prince of Weiguo! The richest man in the southern region! And the general Jingbei who just returned to Beijing! Who among them can't afford a few pieces of gold?"

"Princess Cheng gave a big bag of golden plum blossoms, and the wife of Duke Chen gave a purse of golden plum blossoms. Does Tang'er need someone to give her gold?"

"There's only one grandmother in this world! Why are you doing this to her?!"

"When Tang'er came back home to give gifts to her family, she, a Taoist priest, gave her grandmother a white jade Guanyin, worth 35,000 taels! Was she unfilial to her grandmother?"

"Years ago, Kang Ning spent 200,000 taels on elixirs. The elixir that Tang'er gave you is worth 100,000 taels. Did she take a penny from you? Isn't she filial enough?"

Marquis Yong'an questioned loudly, but the more he spoke, the more his heart ached, as he felt sorry for the unfair treatment his child had received.

He swayed and felt his legs go weak, so he sat down beside the table.

His eyes were already filled with tears.

"Mother, if you don't want to be Tang'er's grandmother, just say it clearly." Yong'an Hou took a long breath, and his voice became very light, but it was filled with a decisive chill.

"From now on, I will not let Tang'er call you grandma anymore. A grandma who can even use the New Year's money as an excuse to bully a child is better off not having her."

"Anyway, since Tang'er came back, you haven't given the child a penny, not even a piece of cake, so it's better to sever this relationship."

"From now on, mother, please don't talk about filial piety anymore. I will let Tang'er call you 'Old Madam'."

After Marquis Yong'an finished speaking, he looked at the dazed and uneasy old lady with red eyes, then stood up and walked out.

"Mother must be very upset after such a fuss. You should go back and rest. Don't hurt your body. You have to take care of your children and grandchildren by their bedside and ruin their future."

The last sentence of Yong'an Hou was meaningful, and its meaning was almost the same as Yuntang's previous reminder.

This year is the year of the Imperial Examination. Scholars in the mansion can wait for the autumn examination to take the exam, and those who have not yet taken the examination can also try their hand in the examination hall. However, the one who really has a hope of making it to the spring examination next year is Jiang Yanxuan.

Jiang Yanyu and Jiang Yanchong haven't got married yet, but they are old enough to get married.

This is a warning to the old lady who still doesn't know she is wrong, telling her not to make a fuss if she can't achieve her goal, as this will ruin the reputation and future of her grandchildren, whom she has always been proud of.

Yuntang's previous warning was only regarded as a provocation and ridicule. The old lady would not listen to it and felt that she was about to be angry to death.

Now, when these words were spoken by his eldest son, the inherited marquis, they had a different meaning.

The old lady did not make a fuss anymore, but her face had already turned red with shame, and she kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief, but she could not stop the tears from flowing down.

She regretted it.

Out of momentary impulse, he thought he could suppress the arrogance of his unfilial granddaughter, but in the end he got himself into trouble. He suffered in vain, was scolded and criticized, and had no way to defend himself.

Before leaving, Yuntang threw the small bag of silver plum blossoms to Mrs. Ge, saying that it was to pay for her grandmother's medical treatment, which was a great humiliation to her as a grandmother.

Now, the eldest son bluntly told Yuntang that he would not allow her to call her grandmother anymore and refused to acknowledge her as his grandmother, and she no longer had the face to teach Yuntang a lesson by harping on the idea of ​​filial piety.

"Wow... I, I just want her to know filial piety, respect me as her grandmother, and not be so arrogant and unteachable..."

"I have so many granddaughters, and it's not up to me to decide which one I like more or less. You can't blame me for this, right?"

"She has been sending gifts to Prince Cheng's Mansion for so many years, why didn't she send any to you? She gave Princess Cheng such a beautiful jade bracelet that can be used as a lucky charm, why do you treat grandma as an outsider..."

The old lady suddenly broke down and pounded the table and howled, all of her voice expressing her grievances.

Brothers Jiang Mingli and Jiang Mingwei frowned, one rubbed his forehead and the other pinched his eyebrows. Their eldest brother had already left, so they could only endure it.

The second and third wives looked at each other with some disgust in their eyes, then they waved their hands, signaling the concubines who looked restrained and uneasy to leave first.

This family banquet had long lost its meaning. With the departure of Yuntang and his brothers and sisters, it was impossible for Nuanxiang Pavilion to hold another banquet.

My eldest brother just left, asking my mother to go back and rest, and he didn't mention anything about eating.

But now that their mother was crying like this, they couldn't urge her to go back, so they could only watch her cry.

The old lady slapped the table loudly until her hands became numb and she stopped. She cried for a long time and when no one said anything, she picked up her handkerchief and wiped her tears several times. Finally, she spoke in a hoarse voice.

"From now on, I will worship Buddha in my Songhe Hall. I can't afford your family banquet."

She spoke with a sad face and stretched her hands to the side. Two maids hurried forward to help her up. She stood up and swayed a little before she could barely stand.
