Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 177.1: Precise Words, Death Pardoning Gold Plaque

“Mother, this daughter-in-law doesn’t know what you’re saying.” The Ding Duchess lowered her eyes.

Towards her own words not having any effect, Sun Old Madam didn’t get angry either. Since she came today, she naturally was certain that she won’t leave empty-handed. Between this daughter-in-law and her, that was just genuine a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, never once ‘exceeding’ in the last several decades. Being close like mother-daughter and whatnot, they never once even bothered to pretend. However, this while, Sun Old Madam seemingly became interested, “You’re probably thinking that it’s Luo third miss that drove a wedge between you and your son, and for you to have become like this today, it’s also her fault, right? And as for your daughter, not only did she not stand on your side, joined against a common enemy, she even has a close intimate relationship with your enemy, entirely just a white-eyed wolf. Since that’s the case, why the need to care about her anymore? And the moment you learned that she was pregnant, it wasn’t the joy of soon having a grandson, but rather feeling a vile spawn carrying the Luo family’s blood, it’s better to not have a single one of, right?”

The words in front, the Ding Duchess just remained silent, but afterwards, she shook her head denying.

Sun Old Madam seemingly helplessly sighed, “As expected, you were thinking like this, and even deeply stuck within, difficult to free oneself. Seen those penetrating into a bull’s horn before, but never seen your kind, stubbornly stuck inside, unwilling to turn back. You painstakingly had Lin boy raised to adulthood, had all your hopes entrusted onto him, so for him to suddenly care about another woman more than you, you temporarily feeling sad, unable to accept, this is actually all quite normal. Many who are mothers all have this kind of mentality, but you instead hate that you can’t have him tied to your waist. Is this the manner in which you care for your son? Heh, when did you hit your head, having gone stupid?

Could it be that when he really takes a wife, all should have her treated as decoration? Aside from giving birth to children, have no more use for anything else? And after he finishes ‘performing the rites of Duke Zhou’^[1] with his wife, he should just immediately turn around and nestle in your embrace to look for milk? Since that’s the case, why bother looking for a wife for him, just have him spend a lifetime with you. And when you die, just pull him to die together. You can even request to be buried in the same coffin. He, from the start, just came from your stomach, and till death, will always be by your side. Look, how great, aside from you, there won’t be anyone that’ll be able to be this intimate with him.”

Sun Old Madam neither quickly nor slowly spoke, and towards the end, even deliberately softened and slowed her voice.

The Ding Duchess’s complexion however was turning green and pale, widening her eyes in disbelief. These words were just short of directly saying they, as mother and son, threw human relations in disorder^[2], “Mother, he’s your grandson, how can you say this about him?” Her voice sharpening, and that expression was practically just hating that she can’t have this old hag before her that’s slandering her son strangled to death.

Sun Old Madam rather nonchalantly tidied her sleeves, “Was I saying Lin boy? I was just talking about your thoughts, talking about you. Lin boy has always been a good child, bright, outstanding, clean and honest, and also a normal child. When coming of age, encountering the right person, he will also have youthful feelings of admiration, just that poor child has a mother with an ill mind. In the past, we all didn’t notice, thus he lost his wife, lost his happiness, and the home that originally made him feel warm, he now just wanted to escape from. Perhaps, dying outside was all better than in the home that just made him feel painful.”

“Nonsense, you’re saying nonsense, it’s not like that, it’s not like that………” The Ding Duchess seemingly as if going crazy, shouted and screamed. She had Yi Lin watched tightly because she didn’t want to let him be led astray by those vixens. It doesn’t matter who he likes, as long as he doesn’t care that much, and as long as he doesn’t insist on just this one. No matter how many he wants, it all isn’t a problem. She merely didn’t want him to lose himself in romance and neglect his future, what was wrong with this? How can she have her said to be that dirty and filthy?

“Say, if outsiders were to know that Lin boy has such a mother, what would he do? Gathering all the outcomes, there’s actually just that one, and that’s just his entire life all ruined. Aside from those ugly with many flaws women, who would be willing to marry him? At that time, won’t you be very happy? After all, if he becomes completely isolated, you will become his only one.” Sun Old Madam was still apathetic, saying to this daughter-in-law of hers the words that she can’t accept the most.

“A bunch of nonsense, shut up, shut up…………”

“What right do you have to make me shut up? You dare to do, yet others can’t say? You’re too laughable.”

“The body is upright, so not afraid of the shadow slanting, I’ve never done…………”

Sun Old Madam hooked her lips into a smile, “The body is upright, so not afraid of the shadow slanting? Just unfortunately, if I say you have, then you just have.”

Because she was wasted, the Ding Duchess’s widened eyes became increasingly terrifying. “Yi Lin is your grandson, how can you do this? How can you be this malicious, wanting to ruin him? Yi Lin’s bright future, how can you, how can you………”

“What’s there for me to not dare to do? In my younger years, I’ve done plenty of malicious things, and the human lives that have dyed my hands, even if there’s not ten, there’s still at least eight. Just, unfortunately, you don’t have the opportunity to witness anymore. However, no matter how malicious I may be, actually still can’t compare to you. All say a tiger, though cruel, will not devour its cubs, but even the flesh and blood that fell from your body, you would all repeatedly harm. Even less than an animal.

Because of a resentment towards an outsider, you are all able to vent your anger out on your daughter, even harming your own grandson. Right now, I’m actually very much suspecting whether you really care for Yi Lin, or just using him as an excuse to make a fuss? Otherwise, with the matter already passing, you should be properly mending your mother and son relationship, but look at you, what all are you doing all day? His relationship with Yi Jia has always been good. Say, if he were to know that you, this mother, nearly harmed his younger sister, and harmed his nephew, would he directly sever all relations with you or not?

Yi Jia right now, towards you, probably have thoroughly lost all feelings. However, for you, it shouldn’t matter all that much. Everything that you’ve done for her, isn’t it all because of her worth? For the sake of paving the road for your son, that’s why, even if gone, that’s probably all there is to it. During that period prior to Yi Jia marrying, I thought that the mother-daughter feelings by nature that existed in you still haven’t died out, and that you really must have considered for her, but reality proved, I still underestimated the degree of your fickle nature.

Sometimes, I really don’t know how someone like you thinks, and whether or not this brain was different from ordinary people’s. For example, this matter of mending relationships, all say need to do some pleasing things, but the things you’ve done are practically just like as if others’ hatred towards you wasn’t enough, disdaining that you haven’t pushed your own people away far enough. Could it be that this your method of fixing things? Really is quite unique, or perhaps, can even say, stupid to the point where no one can surpass?”

The Ding Duchess fixedly stared at Sun Old Madam. In the several decades that she’s married into the Ding Duke Manor, this mother-in-law has never said this much to her before, but every word precisely stabbed the heart! She suddenly pounced forward, reaching out, wanting to strangle her.
