Chapter 542 The Original Wife Who Was Replaced with a Daughter or a Son 23
"Okay, okay, I know how hard you've been feeling these years," Wu Baichuan put his hands on Aunt Xiao's shoulders, "but if you want to get back together with the two children, there's really no rush."
"In short, just wait patiently. One day, I will make the two children accept you as their biological mother and make them filial to you. This will make your hard work pay off."
Aunt Xiao was very dissatisfied with Wu Baichuan's words. She just wanted her to wait, but she had already waited for more than ten years. Isn't that enough?
However, Aunt Xiao also knew that what Wu Baichuan said made sense. If she wanted the two children to accept her as their biological mother, she had to take it slow and not be impatient at all.
To be honest, Aunt Xiao now regrets very much accompanying Wu Baichuan to the northwest. If she had stayed in the capital back then, she wouldn't have not been able to see her two children for so many years.
Wu Baichuan naturally coaxed Aunt Xiao for a long time, until he saw that Aunt Xiao was in a better mood, and then he immediately found an excuse to leave.
Doesn’t Aunt Xiao know Wu Baichuan yet?
What the hell is going on? It's all because of those little goblins in the front yard. He is rushing to do those shameless things with them.
But when she thought of her current appearance, Aunt Xiao suddenly lost the confidence to quarrel with Wu Baichuan.
In the northwest, she could control Wu Baichuan, but in the capital, Aunt Xiao knew very well that as long as Jiang Chunxi was pressing down on her, she would not be able to control Wu Baichuan.
Especially men are all lustful, and now that she is no longer pretty, she has no chance of winning against those pretty teenage maids.
No matter how much she didn't want to admit it, Aunt Xiao had to admit that she was old and her advantage in Wu Baichuan's heart was gradually fading.
Aunt Xiao stared blankly as Wu Baichuan left, leaning against the door frame, tears falling unconsciously.
"Auntie, please come in!" Liu Xu looked at Auntie Xiao with concern and said, "It's already late autumn, and it's very cold outside. If you get sick because of the wind, I will be so heartbroken."
"Wu Baichuan doesn't care about anything," Aunt Xiao said, wiping her tears. "Don't you understand now that Wu Baichuan already despises me for being old? As soon as he returns to the capital, there are beautiful fairies surrounding him. How can he still have a true love like me who looks old in his heart?"
"Oh!" Aunt Xiao sneered, "A man's love! I see through it now. Fortunately, I still have a pair of children to look after, otherwise how would I live in the future?"
"Master still has Auntie in his heart," Liu Xu said, "Although Master is now infatuated with those beautiful maids, this has happened before, but in the end Master's heart is still with Auntie. In short, I think that Master's feelings for Auntie are irreplaceable, Auntie should not be too pessimistic."
"Okay, you don't have to comfort me," Aunt Xiao said, and turned to walk into the house. "I don't care whether Wu Baichuan still loves me or not. I am already an older person. My two children are the most important to me now. It is not so important whether Wu Baichuan's heart is with me or not."
As long as she has her own children, Aunt Xiao can keep the Diaoyutai stable. It doesn't matter if Wu Baichuan changes his mind. As long as she has her own children, it doesn't matter how many little fairies Wu Baichuan is bewitched by.
A few days later, the eunuch from the imperial palace came to Wu's house to read the imperial edict, which was the edict promoting Wu Baichuan to a third-rank official in the capital.
Unexpectedly, when Wu Baichuan received the imperial edict, he was so excited that he fainted. When he woke up, he was paralyzed. Not only could he not move, he couldn't even speak.
When Aunt Xiao learned about Wu Baichuan's situation, she fainted on the spot, and even Old Madam Wu was not much better off.
In recent years, due to her old age, Madam Wu no longer lived in the farm outside the city, and has been living in the Wu Mansion. Especially in the past year, Madam Wu's health has deteriorated greatly. In the original owner's previous life, Madam Wu died of a cold in this year.
At that time, the original owner was taking care of her mother-in-law's funeral, and her mother-in-law's death was a great blow to the original owner, so she fell ill after the funeral. This also gave Wu Baichuan and Aunt Xiao the opportunity to drug her, causing the original owner to be bedridden and never recover.
Not only did this not arouse suspicion from others, even the original owner did not suspect anything. If Wu Baichuan and Aunt Xiao's family of four had not told the original owner the truth before they died, the original owner would probably not have known until her death that she was killed by a chronic poison.
Jiang Chunxi did not feed Madam Wu any life-extending pills. Although Madam Wu was very kind to her, she really cared about her son Wu Baichuan. If she helped extend Madam Wu's life, how could she torture Wu Baichuan? After all, just paralyzing Wu Baichuan in bed was not enough.
Therefore, after Wu Baichuan became paralyzed, Mrs. Wu also fell completely ill and was bedridden. It was not until Jiang Chunxi's son became the top scorer in the imperial examination that she finally let go of her long-suffering breath and closed her eyes.
After finishing the funeral of Old Madam Wu, Jiang Chunxi began to prepare to torture Wu Baichuan and Aunt Xiao. It was time to let this pair of dogs know the truth.
"Let me go, let me go, you dogs. Who gave you the courage to be rude to me?" Aunt Xiao shouted in panic when she was dragged out of her yard.
But no matter how she struggled and screamed, the two old women who were dragging her were too lazy to pay any attention to her.
Soon, Aunt Xiao was taken to a remote and dilapidated courtyard. Jiang Chunxi was also here at this time, looking at Wu Baichuan who was carried here with a mocking look on her face.
Wu Baichuan is now just a useless person who can't even speak. No matter how angry he is at this moment, he can only look at Jiang Chunxi with angry eyes.
Of course, it is impossible to say that Wu Baichuan is not panicking. He really can't understand why Jiang Chunxi had people carry him here, and what on earth she was going to do by carrying him here.
Wu Baichuan was panicked because he didn't understand why Jiang Chunxi did this.
"Madam," Aunt Xiao said angrily when she saw Jiang Chunxi, "What did I do wrong? Why did you let me be dragged here? Aren't you always the most virtuous and kindhearted? Could it be that your so-called virtue and kindness are just an act for show?"
"Now that the old lady is gone and the master is paralyzed in bed, Madam doesn't plan to pretend anymore. But even so, I don't think I have ever offended you, Madam! Isn't it a bit too much for Madam to treat me like this now?"
