Chapter 185 Your Mother is Sick



Chapter 185 Your Mother is Sick

Lan Qiyan brought the three brothers back to the Lan Mansion, closed the door, and patted the table, "Yuze, go ahead."

"mother!"

"Tell me, there's something wrong with your mother. Does she have schizophrenia or multiple personalities?"

"Mom, my mother does have some problems. She has been very strange since I can remember. Sometimes she is very kind to the three of us. She is really nice when she is gentle, but these warm moments don't last long.

Whenever I am immersed in this mother-son relationship, my mother becomes very strange.

She looked at me, Yuzhen and Yuqi as if they were enemies. I didn't understand whether mother hated us or father.

Later I did some research, and now you know the answer, mom.

My mother was the only daughter of the Imperial Tutor, and she took her mother's surname, Chu Yun. But my grandfather wanted a son very much, and he was marrying into the family, and he had promised not to take concubines, so he adopted a boy.

The boy was a few months older than my mother, and my father loved him especially, so he gave him his surname and named him Jiang Xiao!

My grandfather, as the Grand Tutor, also put a lot of effort into training me. My uncle is also very hardworking. At a young age, he is proficient in poetry, songs, literary skills, and military strategies. He is also a good-looking person."

"But it's ridiculous that your mother has fallen in love with your uncle."

"Yes, my mother couldn't hold back her temper and ran to my grandmother to express her feelings.

My grandmother is the princess of the Zhenguo Mansion. She always agrees to my mother's requests. She treats her adopted son as a toy. If her own daughter likes him, she will agree to it."

"But your grandfather disagrees."

"Yes, my grandfather would rather be divorced and become a poor man than agree to this marriage.

My grandmother was furious for a moment, wondering what could have caused my grandfather to react so strongly.

Later, I found out that my uncle was the son of an old friend of my grandfather's in his hometown.

My grandmother thought my grandfather was unfaithful, and the two of them were separated for a long time.

I also suspected that this was my grandfather's son, otherwise why would there be such a big reaction.

He even sent people to assassinate my uncle many times. In order to protect my uncle's safety, my grandfather knelt in front of the late emperor for a day and a night, and the late emperor agreed to the divorce.

From then on, one followed my father and the other followed my mother. My mother was soon married to the second son of the then Marquis Wu'an, who was my father.

After that, my mother focused on taking care of her husband and children, and even after ten years of wandering, their relationship remained the same.”

Yu Xiu grabbed a handful of melon seeds from Old Lady Yu's hand and complained, "They still have the same feelings as before. They left the three of you to Dad and brought your cousin with them."

"Maybe my cousin looks like my uncle. It's understandable that the son of an old friend will look like the old friend." Yu Zhen said self-deprecatingly.

"Maybe my mother has something to hide."

Lan Qiyan glanced at Yu Zian, who shook his head. She pouted and said, "The child is already grown up, why can't she tell him? Is she going to keep it a secret forever?"

Besides, the kids are all very smart and they will be able to guess it later.

Yuze smiled bitterly, "You two are flirting with each other, do you think we can't see it?"

"Who flirted with him? You are not speaking in a proper way, my dear."

"Mom, if you have anything to say, just say it. I, your son, have a very strong psychological endurance."

Lan Qiyan slammed the table and said, "Look, I told you so. We are a family, except for my father, who was put together later. Who wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure?

Look at mother, she has been through so much, but now she can still leisurely eat melon seeds.

Look at me, I have no parents and I’m all alone, but I’m still happy.

Look at Yu Xiu, his father died and his mother ran away, but he still managed to make himself fat.

Look at you, you have been neglected and unloved by your father since childhood. You have to suffer all the hardships and sins while they enjoy the blessings.

Look at the fifth and sixth brothers, the throne was directly given to the youngest third brother, don’t they want to live?

Yu Ze and the other three have strong endurance, these are just the results of drugging.

Isn't it only when Jiang Xiao comes that they can feel the maternal love displayed by Chu Yun?

Wasn't it just that as soon as she heard the story about the love between Jiang Xiao and his wife, she began to cruelly abuse her three sons.

Didn’t she take Jiang Yi back home after Jiang Xiao and his wife died?

You just want these three sons to pave the way for Jiang Yi, what's so unacceptable about that, aren't you a good son?"

Yu Ze's eyes were red, Yu Zhen was in tears, Yu Qi was hugging Yu Xiu and crying loudly, Yu Mian and Yu Lin were silent.

Lan Qiyan raised his head at a 45-degree angle, trying not to let the tears flow.

How pitiful! They are a bunch of people who are not loved or cared for by anyone.

Old Lady Yu’s maternal love is overflowing. God is blind. Children who have enough maternal love are not filial, and on the contrary, filial children lack maternal love.

As for her children, well, never mind, she shouldn't have married that beast Yu Laishui.

"My dear children, don't be sad. Grandma feels bad for you. I thought our life in Jade Village was poor. Grandma hopes you can enjoy wealth and glory.

You have all these now, but you rarely laugh.

I am selfish. I wish you hadn’t come to the capital. At least you are still happy.”

“Instead of living a life of grievance, I might as well rebel and let my father become the emperor.” Yu Xiu expressed his thoughts without hesitation.

Old Lady Yu quickly covered his mouth and said, "You little bastard, do you want to die?"

"So what? It's hard to say who will win."

Lan Qiyan pointed at Yu Xiu, then at Yu Zian, and said, "You and your father should go to the northern border to gain experience."

"Okay, don't worry, Mom. I will keep an eye on him and never let anyone worthwhile get close to him."

Lan Qiyan glared at him and said, "You little brat, I want you to gain experience and learn skills. Being a general requires more than just courage."

"Mom, I'll go too." Yumian said.

"No, you are too young to stand the harsh environment there."

"Mom, Dad was only ten years old when he went to the battlefield. I'm almost old now. Dad and my second brother are here. I'll be fine."

"I'm going too, but I'm not going to fight. I'm going to do business." Yumian said.

"You're in business? What do you sell?"

"Mom, I have a plan, but I won't tell you until it succeeds."

Lan Qiyan felt uncomfortable. If he didn't tell her, then what was there to talk about.

"Yan'er, let him go. I'll take three away and leave three think tanks. You can live well in the capital."

Lan Qiyan looked at Yuze, Yuzhen and Yulin. Would they cause trouble again?

She was a little excited, but the three children wouldn't tell her.

"Mom, stop scratching your head, you also have a task."

Lan Qiyan rubbed his hands together, "Tell me quickly, what is my mission?"

"To attract the attention of the imperial palace and noble families to the greatest extent possible."

Lan Qiyan was a little confused.

Yulin looked helpless, "Brother, let's talk."

Yuze smiled and said, "Mom, did you say street slicker? You explained the meaning to us at that time."

"You want me to become a street urchin?"

"Yes, mother, do you have confidence?"

Lan Qiyan laughed out loud. This was not a matter of confidence or not. This was her specialty, talent, and professional match.
