Chapter 761: Meeting with Zhong Mu to Persuade her
"He may not be cruel. Maybe he knows the whole story and is sure that Zhong Yixue will not be in any danger."
Jiang Suining's brows were cold, and there was a hint of chillness in his eyes.
Wei Yao was stunned for a moment, then reacted quickly.
"You mean to say that Zhong Xingyun arranged for Zhong Yixue to suddenly go crazy?"
"I'm just guessing."
Jiang Suining recalled in his mind what he saw when Zhong Yixiu went crazy.
At that time, Zhong's mother was shocked, and the funeral procession was instantly in chaos. In comparison, although Zhong Xingyun looked concerned, there did not seem to be any panic or surprise on his face.
Moreover, many people had not yet reacted, and Zhong Xingyun started to talk about being possessed. She felt strange at the time, but looking back now, she was afraid that he had already thought of an excuse at that time.
"Zhong Yixue is his daughter after all. If Zhong Xingyun really arranged for her to make such a scene in public, then he is really too cruel."
Wei Yao frowned, but what concerned her more than sympathizing with Zhong Yixiu was how to get to the bottom of this matter.
"If Zhong Xingyun was really behind all this from the beginning to the end, then how can we find evidence? I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to even meet Zhong Yixue now."
Zhong Xingyun didn't want them to have any contact with Zhong Yixiu before, let alone the current situation.
However, if they want to find out what happened, they must find out Zhong Yixiu's current situation.
"We really can't rashly go to the Zhong family right now, but not being able to see Zhong Yixue doesn't mean we can't see other people."
Jiang Suining looked past Wei Yao and behind her, "Here she comes."
Wei Yao turned her head and looked back, and found that Zhong's mother was being led towards her.
"Mrs. Zhong, what are you doing?"
"I sent someone to secretly send a message to Madam Zhong, asking her to come over."
Jiang Suining stood up, looked at Madam Zhong who was approaching, and signaled the maid to serve tea.
Zhong's mother looked haggard, and her overall condition looked much worse than the previous time they went to Zhong's house to pay their respects.
After asking Mrs. Zhong to sit down, Jiang Suining got straight to the point, "Madam Zhong, you should know why we asked you to come here today."
"I..." Zhongmu hesitated to speak.
Jiang Suining continued, "Since you are willing to come here, I think you must have something to say to us. Although Minister Zhong is still in the government office handling official business and is not at home, he may return home soon. We don't have much time. Madam Zhong, are you really sure you want to continue hesitating?"
"I want to ask you to help Yixue." Mother Zhong did not delay any longer and looked at Jiang Suining and Wei Yao pleadingly, "You said before that you would help. I want you to find a way to take her out of the Zhong family and find a doctor to take a good look at her."
Jiang Suining and Wei Yao looked at each other.
"Mrs. Zhong, if you want us to help, shouldn't you also tell us what happened?" Wei Yao asked.
Mother Zhong withdrew her gaze, her face once again filled with hesitation.
If the fact that the father poisoned his daughter were to be known, then the master would be finished, and the reputation of the Zhong family would probably be completely ruined...
No, she couldn't say.
But she couldn't just watch Yi Xue stay in the Zhong family.
Not only did the master not call a doctor for her, but he even planned to continue giving her medicine, which further confirmed the theory that she was possessed.
Although the master kept saying that it would not have any effect, medicine is poisonous to some extent, especially this kind of medicine that can make people crazy and lose their minds. If she continues to take it, if there are any sequelae left, then Yi Xue will be completely ruined.
Thinking of this, Zhong's mother made up her mind, stood up from the stool, and knelt down directly in front of Jiang Suining.
Jiang Suining stood up and supported her, "Madam Zhong, please get up quickly, you..."
"Lady Jiang, Lady Wei, there are some things I really can't tell you. I know that the rumors against the Women's Academy must have annoyed you, and you can definitely guess who spread the news. But I really have no other choice but to shamelessly ask you to help Yixue. No matter what, Yixue is innocent in this matter."
Looking at Madam Zhong kneeling on the ground begging, Wei Yao couldn't help but think of her own mother. She really couldn't bear it, but she still spoke.
"Mrs. Zhong, we also want to help you, but under the current circumstances, if you don't tell us the truth, how can we take Miss Zhong away from the Zhong family?"
"Ayao is right. Even if we want to help, we can't just barge into the Zhong family and take people away directly."
Jiang Suining sighed and helped Zhongmu up with all his strength.
"Madam Zhong, we can all see that you treat Miss Zhong very well, but there is no such thing as having the best of both worlds. And the Zhong family is the Shangshu Mansion after all. Even if we have our heart set on something, we can't do anything if you don't cooperate."
Mother Zhong's heart trembled and tears fell from her red eyes.
"I don't ask for anything else. I just want Yixue to leave the Zhong family. I can help lead her away, but I am a woman in seclusion after all. Even if I send Yixue away, I really don't know how to arrange it. So I just want you to take her in, or hide her, and then..."
"What happened next?" Jiang Suining interrupted Zhong's mother.
"What?" Zhong's mother was puzzled.
Jiang Suining looked into her eyes and continued speaking word by word.
"What happens after we hide the person? If this matter is not resolved, Miss Zhong might have to bear the reputation of being possessed by evil spirits forever. Even if the rumors die down and people gradually forget about this matter, how will Miss Zhong live?"
"I..." Zhong's mother pursed her lips, not knowing how to start for a moment.
"Also, if we hide the person, it is impossible for Minister Zhong not to look for him. At that time, what does Madam Zhong think we should do? Even if we can tear our faces off with Minister Zhong on your behalf, and protect Miss Zhong regardless of the consequences, and hide the person forever, can Miss Zhong be willing to hide for the rest of her life?"
Jiang Suining's words were like raindrops hitting Zhongmu's head in the summer, making her panic-stricken.
"I, I haven't figured out what to do next."
"Madam Zhong, it is said that parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run. Miss Zhong is smart, well-read, and has ambitions and goals in her heart. Do you really have the heart to let such a daughter bear the reputation of being possessed for the rest of her life?"
Jiang Suining sighed deeply, his tone tinged with helplessness.
"You should know that if this matter is not thoroughly clarified, it will be difficult for Miss Zhong to return to the Women's Academy to teach, or to get married and have children. After all, how many people can sincerely accept a person who was once possessed and mad?"
