274 The Hidden Memory
Yang Fen was used to doing farm work, so her slap was very strong. The old woman’s teeth fell out, and her face was covered in blood.
This sudden change shocked many people. Even Song Yun stood up straight. Oh my God! Even a drama series would not dare to film a scene like this.
Jiang Si’s heart skipped a beat. He loosened his grip and threw Zhao Panpan to the ground. Zhao Panpan wailed as her clothes fell off her body. She grabbed them in a hurry.
Brother and sister? He and Zhao Panpan were actually biological siblings? Jiang Si’s eyes were filled with shock. He felt a fishy taste in his mouth before he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yang Fen and the old woman were fighting, and the two soon rolled into a ball in the snow.
“You evil woman, you evil woman, you’ve harmed my daughter. I’ll fight you to the death!” Yang Fen’s hand was very strong. She immediately pressed the old woman into the snow and hit her.
“So what if you hit me? What kind of good thing do you think your daughter is? Haha, I’m afraid that she can’t bear to be born in your family!” The old lady’s mouth was bleeding and she pointed at Zhao Panpan, “See that? If your daughter was born in your family, she would only be a farmer’s daughter. She would be uncouth and work in the fields all her life. Then, she would marry a farmer. Who do you think you are? Do you think your daughter wants to acknowledge you? She lied to the empress for twenty years for power and even married the empress’ man in the end. Can you afford to have a daughter like this?” The old woman laughed out loud, and the blood in her mouth was particularly horrifying.
“Nonsense! Zhao Panpan is a little princess, you old woman must have been bribed. It’s His Majesty who has no morals and ethics, it’s His Majesty who is lacking in virtue!” Xiao Shen was furious and said with a sullen face.
“Princess? Is she even worthy? She’s not even fit to carry the little princess’ shoes!” The old woman spat out two broken teeth. “Look at the child she gave birth to. You haven’t seen her child, have you? Pure Consort, why don’t you bring your twin children out for everyone to see?” The old lady’s eyes lit up.
“Ah! Don’t say anymore, don’t say anymore. Someone, cut off her tongue!” Zhao Panpan covered her ears and screamed.
Jiang Si’s face darkened.
“If you can lie to the empress for more than ten years, what else do you not dare to do? Your children are the evidence!” The old lady insisted.
“No, no, it’s Xiao Meili who poisoned me! She poisoned me! She’s the one who harmed me!” Zhao Panpan went crazy. Whenever she thought of her pitiful children, her heart would ache. It was all Xiao Meili’s fault. It was Xiao Meili who had hurt her and her son!
The old lady grinned and looked at Zhao Panpan with some sympathy, “Young Miss, this servant has also served you for a few years, but your forgetfulness is too great.”
Yang Fen’s eyes flickered over Zhao Panpan’s body. There was a hint of fake affection and a hint of scheming.
“When you were four years old, Xiao Meili was pregnant. The ingredients that Xiao Meili prepared for you were often placed in the kitchen, and no one dared to touch them. Later, in order to please Xiao Meili, you sneaked into the kitchen and mistakenly cooked the ingredients for Xiao Meili. Then, you prepared the same ingredients for yourself. At that time, Xiao Meili was two months pregnant, and you made soup for her for four months. When she was six months pregnant, Xiao Meili miscarried and gave birth to a strange boy. Miss, have you forgotten all these things? Since then, you’ve stopped eating the food the Madam prepared. You’ve only eaten a little after entering the palace, but what can that cause? It’s just two jars of pickled vegetables, not enough to cause problems for the fetus.”
Zhao Panpan was stunned and dazed. Her face turned pale as if the floodgates of her memories had been opened. Some memories that she did not want to recall instantly poured out. In her mind, she seemed to see the scene from back then. Xiao Meili finished the soup she had made, put down the bowl, and said that her stomach hurt. Then, in front of her, a bloody child with one eye on the forehead fell out of her skirt. That eye was wide open and looked at her. The child’s entire body was blue and purple. His fists were tightly clenched, and his little face was the color of a pig’s liver. He even cried twice. Back then, she was so scared that she kicked the freak out of the house and fainted. After that, she never drank the soup and water that Xiao Meili brought.
“How, how did this happen? Then why did I…” Zhao Panpan muttered absentmindedly, her face full of shock.
