Mrs. Wang thought that she was a great contributor to the continuation of the Rongguo Mansion's offspring. Even if Lady Jia was angry, she would only reprimand her a few words. Would she really stand up for Jia Min and Lin Chengyu, two outsiders?

Jia Min was just a married woman, and Lin Chengyu was even more of an outsider.

In addition, Lady Jia's attitude that day did not seem to be venting her anger on behalf of the Lin family, so she felt relieved and even more proud.

How could he, the Marquis of Ning'an, disobey his elders?

She thought to herself that as long as the old lady didn't want to pursue the matter, the Lin family would not be able to do anything to her.

I don’t know why, but after a few days, her body gradually became weak. She couldn’t eat or take medicine. She lay in bed all day and had no strength in her body.

But many doctors who came and went could not figure out the cause of the problem, and they did not dare to prescribe medicine rashly. They just prescribed some warm tonic medicine for her to drink slowly.

Mrs. Wang didn't feel anything at first, she just felt a little tired. Now it was a good opportunity for her to take a rest and recuperate.

But she didn't expect that the disease would be so severe that she was unable to get up within a few days.

Zhou Ruijia speculated, "Did he get scared that day, so that's why he's like this?"

Mrs. Wang's face was pale and a little gray, which looked very strange. However, the imperial physician came to see her but didn't say anything.

Zhou Ruijia suppressed her worries and comforted her with a forced smile: "Madam, please relax. It should be nothing serious. Although the medicine is expensive, it is nothing to our family. Just rest assured and recover."

Mrs. Wang has been bedridden ever since. Wang Xifeng has visited her once, but she would just sit for a short while and then leave. When asked, she would say that she had her older sister to take care of at home and she really couldn't get away.

Zhou Ruijia sighed, and when she looked up and saw the deserted house, she felt sorry for Madam Wang. "Those people usually said nice things, but at the critical moment, their true natures were revealed one by one. It's really a waste that Madam treats them so well on weekdays."

It would be fine if it were anyone else, but it's hard not to feel a little disheartened when your wife's own niece behaves like this.

"Even if there were some things on normal days, at this time, she should accompany her well just because of the kindness that the madam has shown her over the years." Zhou Rui's wife was Mrs. Wang's companion, so she naturally sided with Mrs. Wang when she spoke. From the meaning of her words, it was clear that she had some opinions about Wang Xifeng.

"Forget it." Madam Wang was weak and her voice was hoarse as she spoke, "Time will tell. She is my niece, but she is still from the eldest wife's family. It is better for me to cut off all ties with her."

Zhou Ruijia was not a fool. Even if she didn't look at the sarcastic expression on Mrs. Wang's face, she knew from just hearing these words that she was extremely disgusted with Wang Xifeng.

They are obviously aunt and niece, and should have worked hand in hand in this mansion. Why did it turn out like this?

She doesn't understand.

But some people understand.

Although she understood it, Mrs. Wang felt that Wang Xifeng was a little petty. She just thought Wang Xifeng was capable and wanted to use her, but she didn't expect Wang Xifeng to be so ungrateful.

However, after talking for a while, Mrs. Wang felt that her body could not support her anymore, so she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep again.

That day, Wang Xifeng came out of Mrs. Wang's courtyard and her brows never relaxed on the way back. No one knew what she was thinking about.

After returning home, she and Ping'er were the only ones in the room, so they spoke without hesitation, "I went to see my wife today. The situation is not good. It may only last for a few days."

Ping'er was shocked, and her face showed a bit of doubt, "Is it so serious?"

"Isn't it?" Wang Xifeng leaned back and rubbed her swollen temples. "Although she has been calculating towards me, she is from the Wang family after all. Seeing her like this, I can't help but feel a little uncomfortable."

Ping'er was silent, she naturally knew it.

But Ping'er also knew that Wang Xifeng was just expressing her feelings a few words. Ever since she learned about Mrs. Wang's plan, Wang Xifeng's heart had turned cold. Coupled with what happened later, the little bit of affection between them had long since disappeared.

The two were chatting about Mrs. Wang's strange illness, and Wang Xifeng suddenly had a guess in her mind. A few days after that day, the lady's health became unwell, and it was hard not to be suspicious.

Is this what the old lady meant?

If it was really what she guessed...

However, when I went to Rong Xi Tang to pay my respects these few days, the old lady never showed any sign of abnormality on her face. This is the most terrifying thing.

When Jia Lian came back, he saw that the master and servant looked a little strange, so he asked casually, "What happened?"

Ping'er stood up and helped him change his clothes. Wang Xifeng told him the story in a low voice. Jia Lian did not look surprised at all after hearing it, as if he had known it for a long time.

Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean?"

Jia Lian sat down next to her, a smile on his suave face, "The old lady has experienced a lot, how could she not know that after that incident, not only the Lin family is watching how she will deal with Wang, but most importantly, that person."

He pointed in the direction of Linhuai Palace.

"That person is not easy to deal with. My aunt was here before, and Chengyu didn't want to have anything to do with Wang because of the relationship between us."

"But this time, my aunt has reached the end of her patience. Wang has pushed herself to death."

"If the old lady still worries about this and that, I'm afraid our entire Rongguo Mansion will be implicated by Wang Shi."

Wang Xifeng sighed, thinking that her good aunt had brought disaster upon herself.

Mrs. Wang's illness became more serious day by day. She thought she might not survive, so she asked Zhou Rui's wife to send a letter to Qianxiang Kingdom.

Firstly, she thought that she could see Jia Baoyu once before she died, which would make her feel at ease.

Secondly, she wanted to tell Jia Baoyu that the Lin family was a disaster family, and that the reason they had ended up like this was all because of the Lin family. When she gained power in the future, she must never let the Lin family go.

If not, she would die with no peace of mind.

Zhou Ruijia couldn't help but sigh heavily.

After that day, when Mrs. Wang was awake, she would stare at the door, waiting and expecting.

Within half a month, the Lin family received the obituary from the Jia family.

Mrs. Wang is gone.

Jia Min knew clearly that this was what Grandmother Jia had told the Lin family.

Mrs. Wang has repeatedly targeted the Lin family. Even a Bodhisattva has a temper. Grandmother Jia has defended her time and again. No matter what the reason is, Jia Min couldn't help feeling some resentment in her heart.

Mrs. Wang has not changed her bad habits this time. If Lady Jia continues to make a small matter out of a big one as she did in the past, the situation will not be very good when the Lin family takes action.
