Chapter 1065: Outsmarted by Someone
Situ Yongjie: "Someone, fetch Auntie Tang right away."
Within the time of half a cup of tea, Auntie Tang was summoned over.
Situ Yongjie slammed the bowl of medicine down in front of her and asked coldly, "Speak, what exactly is this?"
On her way over, Auntie Tang had already learned that her deed had been exposed. Upon her arrival, Situtu Qinger secretly signaled her with her eyes, making her heart even more certain.
"If the General already knows, why bother asking knowingly!" Auntie Tang did not intend to conceal anything; after all, in the entire General’s Mansion, she was the only concubine who harmed Mo Xiuzhi’s unborn child.
"You have some nerve, knowing it is the flesh and blood of our Situ family and still daring to harm it. Your heart is truly malicious."
Although their family had many children, male heirs were only Situ Zhi. In the eyes of the Old Madam, it was far from sufficient. Regrettably, for years, Situ Yongjie had not been able to let go of Lady Li and refused to take a mistress. Thus, the family had always been thin on male heirs. Now that Mo Xiuzhi was pregnant, Situ Yongjie would, of course, claim the child – if for nothing else, then for the bloodline of the Situ Family.
Auntie Tang’s face was filled with discontent: "She’s just a country girl; how could she be worthy of the General?"
"In my eyes, all of you are the same, with no distinction of nobility," the General, who had spent years on the battlefield, had a bold and grand character.
Hearing this, Auntie Tang laughed mockingly. She had almost forgotten that the little cheap person Lady Li had also come from low origins. Yet she had attained the position that Auntie Tang had long coveted. As a Commandery Princess of noble status, she desired but could not have. Her heart filled with extreme hatred towards Situ Yongjie—the man who had ruined her life.
