Chapter 496: Did Li Wanyin harm Jiang Sui?
Gu Xunjing said innocently, "Mom, stop hitting me, it hurts so much. You didn't poison me, why are you so nervous? It's just that the taste is different, but you're so anxious, it's hard not to overthink it."
At this moment, Jiang Qianhui frowned, but controlled her emotions and said.
"Gu Xunjing, don't talk nonsense. Aunt Li has been so good to me, how could she possibly poison me?"
Jiang Qianhui refused to believe that Aunt Li would harm her.
But the doctor said she took medication to improve blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
At this moment, Gu Xunjing, who had been smiling and joking, suddenly became serious.
When he looked up at Li Wanyin, his eyes were filled with panic and astonishment. He stood up and said in a trembling voice, "Mom, when Sui Sui gave birth, the doctor said that Sui Sui took medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. Even without the car accident, the baby might not have survived. But Sui Sui has always been very careful about her diet. She didn't eat anything she shouldn't have. Who put those things in her food?"
The atmosphere became even more tense, and Li Wanyin was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
"Gu Xunjing, what are you saying? Do you think your mother harmed Sui Sui?"
“Mom, I never thought you would harm Sui Sui, because I can see how good you are to her. But your reaction now is really strange. Although Sui Sui doesn’t say anything, she trusts you, but I don’t want any misunderstandings. I hope you can explain. Why does this braised pig’s trotter taste different when it’s made for Sui Sui?”
Jiang Qianhui looked at Gu Xunjing with deep eyes.
There will probably never be anyone in this world who pays so much attention to her emotions, and there will never be anyone who puts her affairs first, who can notice even the smallest and most subtle emotions.
Why is he so good to her?
Although her son suspected her, Li Wanyin's anger vanished instantly. She looked at Gu Xunjing and said, "This is my son. He's becoming more and more attentive. That's how he'll grow into a responsible man."
“Aunt Li, Gu Xunjing shouldn’t have said those things to you. Gu Xunjing, apologize to Aunt Li. Aunt Li would never harm me.”
Jiang Qianhui couldn't explain why, but she believed that the look of care and love in someone's eyes couldn't be faked.
Aunt Li looked at her as if she were looking at the person she loved most.
She believed that Aunt Li would never harm her.
Li Wanyin smiled gently and said, "Sui Sui, Gu Xunjing did nothing wrong, you don't need to apologize to me. I'm very happy that my son has grown into a responsible man."
"Mom, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you, but please explain."
Gu Xunjing insisted, after all, this was a very big deal.
Li Wanyin said, "I always stew this braised pork knuckle with cinnamon. Braised pork knuckle is quite greasy and hard to digest, so adding cinnamon makes it easier to digest. However, pregnant women cannot eat cinnamon, so when I made it for Sui Sui before, I would replace the cinnamon with cassia bark, so the taste is different."
I didn't want to explain earlier because I didn't want to bring up Sui Sui's pregnancy again. I was just afraid of upsetting her. But Gu Xunjing, with his sharp nose, actually figured it out and even started suspecting me. It's completely upside down!
Hearing his mother's words, Gu Xunjing breathed a sigh of relief. His heart had been in his throat. Although he didn't believe his mother would harm Sui Sui, the taste of this dish was indeed different, and his mother seemed quite nervous. He was afraid that if the matter really was related to his mother.
He doesn't know what to do, and he might even go crazy!
"Mom, I'm relieved to hear you say that. I knew you would never harm Sui Sui."
As soon as Gu Xunjing finished speaking, Li Wanyin slapped him on the shoulder again.
"You rascal, that's not what you said just now. You were very firm when you asked me if I had drugged Sui Sui, just like a police officer investigating a case. Now you're saying you believe me? Isn't that a bit too perfunctory?"
The more Li Wanyin talked, the more embarrassed Gu Xunjing became.
"Mom, you're overthinking it. How could I dare to interrogate you? I'm your son. If anyone should be interrogating someone, it's you who should be interrogating me."
"You only realize I'm your mother now? Too late."
"Mom, I'm sorry, I know what I said just now was a bit harsh. But I was afraid you would misunderstand. As a man, I must mediate the conflict between two women and there absolutely cannot be any misunderstandings."
Li Wanyin smiled and said, "My relationship with Suisui doesn't need your mediation. Suisui is my precious darling, I cherish her like a precious gem, and I just don't want her to recall those unhappy memories. But you, of all people, bring up the most sensitive topics. Who are you trying to burn?"
"Mom, I'm sorry. I was wrong."
Gu Xunjing fell silent instantly, visibly becoming very embarrassed.
Jiang Qianhui felt a pang of sadness as she watched Li Wanyin scold Gu Xunjing.
Li Wanyin was so emotional just now because she didn't want to bring up her sad memories again.
When Gu Xunjing asked her that question, she could say that she had specifically replaced the cinnamon with cassia bark to take care of her, who was pregnant.
It was just an ordinary reply, but she was very considerate of her feelings and took great care of her emotions.
Jiang Qianhui was very moved. She also knew that losing her child was a scar in Aunt Li's heart.
That was empathy from a fellow woman.
Moreover, it's clear that she's lost her child. The people in the Gu family are the most heartbroken, as if they were the ones who caused her to lose her child. They feel so guilty that Jiang Qianhui feels sorry for them.
But the guilt and pain she felt from losing her child should not be borne by anyone who cares about their family.
Jiang Qianhui adjusted her mindset and looked at Li Wanyin with a bright smile, saying, "Aunt Li, I know you feel sorry for me. I lost my child, and this sin should not be borne by you."
No one in Zhan Yanxun's family felt sad because of the child. On the contrary, the Gu family was shrouded in gloom because she lost her child.
It shouldn't be like this.
“Aunt Li, I’ve actually come to terms with it now. That child probably thinks his father is Zhan Yanxun, so he doesn’t want to come here and has returned to heaven to choose his parents again. I think this time, he will definitely be able to choose his favorite pair of parents.”
Hearing Jiang Qianhui's words, Li Wanyin's inner knot seemed to be suddenly untied.
Jiang Qianhui lost her child, and she always felt it was Gu Xunjing's fault, that the Gu family hadn't taken good care of Jiang Qianhui.
She was in great pain, but she hid it. "Sui Sui, hearing you say that makes Aunt Li feel much better. I'm so sorry, it's my son who failed to protect you, causing you to suffer like this. The Gu family owes you."
“Aunt Li, how could you owe me? When I was pregnant, you took such good care of me, treating me like your own daughter. I am very grateful to you.”
Li Wanyin held Jiang Qianhui's hand and said, "Suihui, Aunt Li really likes you. If you really don't like that brat Gu Xunjing, you can be Aunt Li's daughter. In short, Aunt Li just wants to hear you call me 'Mom'."
