Chapter 541 The Original Wife Who Was Replaced with a Daughter or a Son 22
"Mrs. Xiao, how did you raise your children?" Mrs. Xu looked at Mrs. Xiao with a look of confusion and said, "You didn't teach your daughter well, and you made your son a fool."
"Honestly, I don't understand Aunt Xiao. For us women, children are the most important, especially sons. But Aunt Xiao let her son have a fever and became stupid. In the final analysis, it's because you, as a mother, don't care about your child. Otherwise, how could you let your child have a fever and become stupid?"
"That's enough," Jiang Chunxi said, "Children are the flesh and blood of their mothers. The reason why Aunt Xiao has aged like this is probably not only because she has been serving Master wholeheartedly, but more likely because of her two children."
"So Madam Xu should be more careful with her words and stop rubbing salt into Madam Xiao's wounds."
"Thank you Madam for speaking for me," Aunt Xiao looked at Jiang Chunxi with gratitude, "Children are all flesh and blood of their mothers. My son has become a fool. How can I, as his mother, not feel heartbroken? Over the years, I have been worried about my foolish son and my heart is about to break."
Haha! That's your son, Jiang Chunxi. If possible, Aunt Xiao really wants to tell Jiang Chunxi the truth.
It’s a pity that the time has not come yet, so let Jiang Chunxi be proud for a while!
"Don't worry! The Wu family is so big that it can accommodate a child. It's just that his brain has become stupid. At most, I will have to support his child for the rest of his life. As a legal mother, I don't have the capacity for this." Jiang Chunxi looked at Aunt Xiao and said:
"Madam, I heard that the eldest son will take the imperial examination this year," Aunt Bai smiled and complimented Jiang Chunxi, "Based on the eldest son's talent, he will definitely be able to pass the exam and win the first place. Then you will become the mother of the first place winner. The noble ladies in the capital will be so jealous of you and praise you for your good teaching."
When Aunt Xiao heard Aunt Bai talking about her son, she immediately pricked up her ears and couldn't help but look at Aunt Bai, hoping that Aunt Bai could say more about her son.
"It's not my teaching as a mother that's good, it's all his great-grandfather's teaching," Jiang Chunxi said with pride when talking about her son, "but my son is indeed outstanding, no wonder his great-grandfather taught him wholeheartedly and valued his child so much."
"That's also because Madam gave birth to a good child," Aunt Xu quickly complimented, "If Madam hadn't given the eldest son a good brain, would he have shown intelligence since he was a child and been valued by the old master of the Xue family and brought up to teach him with all his heart?"
"I heard that the old master of the Xue family was not so dedicated in teaching his grandsons, but he valued the great-grandson, the eldest son, very much."
Aunt Xiao was so happy at this moment that she couldn't help but laugh happily.
Aunt Bai immediately noticed Aunt Xiao's expression: "Aunt Xiao, are you thinking of something happy? Otherwise, why are you smiling so happily?"
Aunt Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and then she quickly said, "I am happy for the Madam. The eldest son is so outstanding, so naturally I, as a concubine, am happy too. After all, my silly son will have to rely on the eldest son, his legitimate brother, to take care of him in the future."
Regarding Aunt Xiao's answer, Aunt Bai always felt that Aunt Xiao was lying, but what Aunt Xiao said was reasonable and well-founded, so Aunt Bai didn't know what to say.
After all, Aunt Xiao's silly son really needs the care of his eldest brother, the young master, for the rest of his life.
Seeing that Aunt Bai didn't say anything else, Aunt Xiao felt relieved, but at the same time she couldn't wait to see her son.
But Wu Baichuan seemed to have forgotten about Aunt Xiao and didn't think about coming to see her for several days.
Aunt Xiao wanted Liu Xu to go to the front yard to pass a message to Wu Baichuan, but she and Wu Baichuan had been away from Beijing for more than ten years. Who knew whether the servants in the front yard would still be as loyal to Wu Baichuan as before.
Anyway! Aunt Xiao doesn't dare to take risks now. Her son is about to become the top scholar. She can't arouse Jiang Chunxi's suspicion at this critical moment.
After all, Aunt Xiao still holds a very important position in Wu Baichuan's heart. After fooling around with the beautiful maid in the front yard for a few days, he finally remembered Aunt Xiao.
So, that night, after leaving Jiang Chunxi's yard, Wu Baichuan secretly came to Aunt Xiao's residence.
It should be said here that Wu Baichuan and Jiang Chunxi have not seen each other for many years, and he acts like he loves Jiang Chunxi deeply, but after coming back, he has never spent the night at Jiang Chunxi's house. Isn't he afraid of arousing Jiang Chunxi's suspicion?
Of course, it was Jiang Chunxi who said that she was about to become a mother-in-law, so how could she serve Wu Baichuan? That's why she arranged several maids to serve Wu Baichuan, as if she was afraid of letting Wu Baichuan down.
Jiang Chunxi's understanding and empathy naturally made Wu Baichuan very satisfied. He never doubted Jiang Chunxi at all. Should we say that he was too confident? Or should we say that Jiang Chunxi's acting skills were too good?
Otherwise, how could Wu Baichuan not only not doubt Jiang Chunxi at all, but also look so complacent, thinking that Jiang Chunxi loved him too much and was unwilling to let her husband suffer?
When Aunt Xiao saw Wu Baichuan coming, she didn't bother to be angry with him, but immediately asked to see her son, let him know the truth of the matter, and recognize her as his biological mother.
"No," Wu Baichuan refused without thinking, "The child is going to take part in the imperial examination this year. At this critical moment, if the child knows the truth of the love affair, what will happen if it has any impact on the child and causes the child to be unable to concentrate on preparing for the imperial examination?"
"After all, the child has always believed that Jiang Chunxi is his mother. How can he accept the fact that the child was swapped all of a sudden?"
Their son has grown up, and they did not participate in his growth process at all. It can be said that apart from the blood relationship, they have no emotional foundation with their son.
So how could his son accept the truth? Wu Baichuan would not ruin his son's future at this critical moment. Even if he wanted to tell his son the truth in the future, he had to do it slowly.
"But I'm eager to see my son now," Aunt Xiao's eyes were red. "Since the two children were born, I, their biological mother, have only seen them a few times. Since I went to the northwest with you, it has been a fantasy to see the two children for more than ten years."
"And now I'm finally back in the capital, but I still can't see my two children. Do you know how restless I was when my daughter came back with the Sixth Prince? I wanted to ignore everything and run to the front yard to see my daughter."
