Yu Jiaojiao’s heart tightened at these words, and she quickly squeezed through the crowd.
When she stood at the door, she was stunned.
Inside the room, her mother, Madam Yu, was lying on the bed with her clothes disheveled, her eyes tightly closed.
And on the ground was a man dressed as a servant.
Looking at the situation in the room, anyone who didn’t know better would have thought something had just happened.
Yu Jiaojiao didn’t think much about it and went to the bedside, passing the man.
“Mother, Mother, wake up.”
She called for a long time, and Madam Yu finally opened her dazed eyes.
“Jiaojiao, why are you back?”
The next moment, before Yu Jiaojiao could explain, Madam Yu realized that the situation was not right.
Wasn’t she embroidering? How could she be lying on the bed?
And these clothes, how could they be torn open?
The other members of the Yu family arrived late.
When Yu Rencheng saw the scene in the room, he was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth.
“Adulterer and adulteress.”
He quickly went to the bedside and roared fiercely, “Yu Shi, how dare you commit adultery and cuckold me? I will divorce you and have you drowned in a pig cage.”
Madam Yu was frightened and struggled to get up.
She kept saying, “Lord Marquis, I’m wronged, I didn’t commit adultery. Someone must be framing me.”
“Who would frame you in this house? You bitch.” Yu Rencheng was about to slap her.
But the slap stopped in mid-air. He looked angrily at the person who was stopping him.
“Do you, this rebellious daughter, also want to stop me from defending your shameless mother?”
Yu Jiaojiao’s hand exerted a little force, and with a strong flick to the side, she threw his hand away.
She said coldly, “The truth of the matter has not been investigated yet. It’s better for Father to calm down.”
“What’s not clear about this?” Yu Rencheng asked rhetorically.
“Sister, you are really confused. How can you do such a thing? Are you worthy of the Lord Marquis?” Concubine Su covered her face with a handkerchief and cried, “You really shouldn’t have done this.”
“That’s right, if this matter spreads, how can my sister and I live?” Yu Jingjing snuggled up to Jiang Peilang.
She covered her eyes with a handkerchief, pretending not to be able to look, but in a corner that no one noticed, she revealed a triumphant smile.
Jiang Peilang also saw this scene, and his eyes revealed disgust.
Fortunately, the person he married was not Yu Jiaojiao, otherwise he would be the one losing face today.
Yu Jiaojiao ignored them, sniffed, and a trace of coldness flowed in her eyes.
She said in a low voice, “There is the smell of incense in this room. Someone must have drugged Mother to frame her.”
She pointed to the red marks on Madam Yu’s body and continued, “Father, you are not ignorant of such things. Look at these marks, do they look like they were made during intercourse? They were clearly pinched.”
“Look at this bed, look at that person, it doesn’t look like adultery at all.”
“You’re talking nonsense here. This is clearly your mother…” Yu Rencheng was so angry that he was about to slap her again.
“My mother would never do such a thing. You have been husband and wife for twenty years, don’t you even have this much trust?”
Yu Jiaojiao snorted coldly and looked up at Jiang Xingyan outside the door.
“Wangye, can you do me a favor?”
Jiang Xingyan nodded, “You are my Wangfei, of course.”
“I heard that you used to raise blue-tailed silver ring snakes. Can I borrow one? The incense in my mother’s factory has an herb called Flying Scorpion Holy Leaf. Although the smell is faint, it lasts a long time, and blue-tailed silver ring snakes especially like its smell.”
Yu Jiaojiao’s gaze swept over everyone, landing on the gloating Concubine Su and her son.
She slightly hooked her lips, “As long as we bring the blue-tailed silver ring snake, we will know who has been in contact with the drug, and we will also know who harmed my mother.”
Jiang Xingyan nodded slightly and gave the dark guard next to him a look.
“One incense stick’s time.”
Yu Jiaojiao understood and softly comforted Madam Yu, “Mother, it’s okay, I will definitely prove your innocence.”
Madam Yu’s face was pale, and she placed all her hopes on Yu Jiaojiao.
“Seeing is believing, what else is there to say? Even if you are the Wangfei, you can’t force me to wear this green hat.”
Yu Rencheng snorted coldly and said directly, “I am determined to divorce this wife.”
As a result, when he raised his eyes, he saw Yu Jiaojiao’s hate-filled eyes, and his whole body froze in place.
He didn’t react for a long time, and a fear surged in his heart for no reason.
But he quickly realized that he actually had such thoughts in his heart, and he glared at the other party in anger.
“In short, I don’t want this adulteress.”
“What if Mother was just framed today? How should Father apologize? How should he punish the person who framed Mother?” Yu Jiaojiao asked with a sneer.
“Naturally, it’s up to you.” Yu Rencheng said without thinking.
But he saw the smile on Yu Jiaojiao’s lips deepen, “Then it’s settled.”
While the father and daughter were arguing about this matter, Jiang Xingyan’s dark guard also rushed back, with a blue-black finger-thick snake coiled in his hand.
The snake’s tail emitted a blue fluorescence, which was very beautiful.
As soon as this snake appeared, it attracted everyone’s attention.
Yu Jingjing screamed in fear and hid behind Jiang Peilang.
“Ah, so scary.”
Yu Jiaojiao just glanced at her lightly, took out a sachet from her arms and sprinkled it on Madam Yu’s body.
“What is this?” Yu Rencheng said with displeasure, “What are you doing with these mysterious things?”
“This snake is highly poisonous. If it bites you, you will die. Mother’s body is stained with the smell of spices. What if this snake crawls on Mother?”
Yu Jiaojiao said with a smile that was not a smile, “This snake will follow the scent to the person who has been in contact with the drug. If it bites, that person will probably die on the spot.”
“But this person is vicious and framed my mother, so whatever the outcome is, she deserves it.”
As soon as these words came out, Yu Jingjing’s face immediately changed.
She was the one who brought back the medicine, so her body must also have the smell of the drug.
She sniffed her nose while no one was paying attention, but there was no smell around her.
Was Yu Jiaojiao lying?
Such a fluke thought swept through her heart, but the next moment, her whole body froze.
Because she saw the snake staring straight at her, sticking out its tongue.
It seemed that as long as the dark guard let go, it would rush towards her.
“Let the snake find the person.” Yu Jiaojiao said in a low voice.
“Yes.” The dark guard responded and let go.
The snake “flew” towards Yu Jingjing like an arrow on a bow.
“Ah.” Yu Jingjing was startled and kept hiding behind Jiang Peilang.
But that snake was a snake that could kill with one blow. Jiang Peilang reacted extremely quickly and pushed her out.
“Stay away from me.” Then he ran away as if fleeing.
Yu Jingjing was pushed to the ground and looked at Jiang Peilang, who was running away, with an embarrassed expression.
She called out in a aggrieved voice, “Husband.”
Jiang Peilang awkwardly smoothed his clothes and coughed lightly.
He directly questioned, “Why is this snake staring at you? It can’t be that you…”
Yu Jingjing was so frightened that she couldn’t say anything to defend herself.
Because the snake had quietly crawled onto her body.
She was so scared that she couldn’t even scream, and just stared at the snake with a frightened expression.
She muttered in a low voice, “Stay away from me, don’t come over.”
In a short while, everyone had moved far away from her, and no one dared to approach.
Concubine Su was so frightened that she was about to suffocate. She stood not far away, trying to come over.
“Jingjing, don’t be afraid, Mother will protect you.”
As soon as these words came out, Yu Jingjing’s tears burst out in fear.
“Mother, save me, I’m so scared.”
Yu Jiaojiao watched this scene coldly and questioned, “So Yu Jingjing has handled this drug and is the one who framed my mother.”
“Father, you have to uphold justice for my mother.”
