Chapter 10 A Woman's Extramarital Affair

Jiang Shengan is fifty years old and his health is not good. After entering the palace, he was beaten with sticks twenty times. Without proper treatment, it is fortunate that he can wake up now.

The family of ten gathered together. Jiang Shengan glanced around, then looked back at his family. Seeing their clothes and their awkward situation, he sighed and closed his eyes.

"Father! Father, what's wrong with you!"

A group of people were so busy that they were dizzy and disoriented.

Seeing this, Jiang Yutang thought he had fainted again, so she hurriedly pinched Jiang Shengan's philtrum, making him stand up straight.

Afterwards, seeing that Jiang Shengan was unharmed, he was scolded by his fourth brother because he found it hard to accept.

"I...I was just worried about Dad. When I saw him close his eyes, I thought he had fainted..."

Jiang Shengan, looking dejected, helplessly propped himself up: "That's because someone had sand on them, and it got into my eyes."

"I was wrong, I'm sorry, Dad." Jiang Yutang apologized decisively, feeling guilty in his heart.

Medical students, huh? What a disgrace!

"Father, you haven't fully recovered yet. I'm worried your wound might reopen," Jiang Songzhi reminded him.

Jiang Shengan frowned and lay back down, pursing his lips as he asked, "How long was I unconscious?"

"It has been three days, Father."

“Three days…” Jiang Shengan stared blankly at the eagle circling overhead, and only after moving his fingers did he realize that he was lying on the cart.

"These past few days, it's been you guys dragging me along on the road?"

Seeing that the others remained silent, Jiang Shengan's eyes reddened with guilt: "It's my fault for being incompetent, dragging you down at this critical juncture."

“How could this be Father’s fault? It’s clearly…” Jiang Sumin said, then glared at Jiang Yutang with a look of disappointment.

When this topic came up, everyone fell silent.

Jiang Yutang, the culprit, shrank back, feeling aggrieved but helpless. But since the incident had already occurred, he had to make a statement.

"I'm sorry, I know that saying anything now will be of no use, but don't worry, I will prove to you with my actions that I will change!"

Upon hearing her words, apart from Yun Shi showing a moved expression, everyone else remained unmoved, as if they were already used to it.

"That's well said. I hope you'll keep your word and not let everyone down again." Jiang Sumin, unusually, didn't say anything discouraging. He crossed his arms and turned his head to one side.

“Yes!” Jiang Yutang replied firmly.

The group gave the pork cutlet they had secretly kept to Jiang Shengan to supplement his nutrition, but Jiang Yutang quickly stopped them.

“These should have been eaten immediately when they were given to you; now they’ve become damp and spoiled.”

After saying that, he took out a new pork jerky from his bundle and distributed it to the group: "I'll find a way to provide food for Father. You all take care of yourselves first."

As Yun watched her take out all sorts of strange things from her bundle, she asked in surprise, "Tang'er, where did you get all these things?"

Jiang Yutang pretended not to care and said perfunctorily, "These are what I earned by treating other people's illnesses."

"It's quite novel; I've never seen anything like it before."

Since Jiang Yutang had said so, the group no longer had any concerns and began to enjoy the food she offered.

"Dad, this is sugar water. It's good for your health." Jiang Yutang handed a bottle of glucose to Jiang Shengan.

Jiang Shengan held up the brown glass bottle and examined it closely. After finishing the drink, he quietly put it into his pocket.

"Speaking of which..." Jiang Shengan pursed his lips, hesitated for a long time before continuing, "How is the Cheng family now?"

The four sons exchanged glances, and Jiang Songzhi took a deep breath and slowly said, "They'll be in the same exile group as us."

After a long silence, Jiang Shengan said earnestly, "We have implicated his family. If they have any grievances in the future, we should let them have them."

"yes."

After everyone dispersed to rest, Jiang Huaiyu mysteriously pulled Jiang Yutang aside and whispered, "Little sister, do you want to go and ask Cheng Lanzhou how his injuries are?"

Jiang Yutang blinked and looked at him in confusion: "Why should I ask?"

The two sides don't see eye to eye right now, and besides, the fault lies with her. If she goes to their doorstep, wouldn't she be inviting humiliation? She's not going.

Jiang Huaiyu pinched her chin with her right hand and looked her up and down, saying suspiciously, "You really don't care? Tsk, that new top scholar is really capable, he actually managed to coax you to let go of Cheng Lanzhou."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yutang also became curious: "Third Brother, in your opinion, do I really have deep feelings for Cheng Lanzhou?"

If one is truly devoted, how could one be easily swayed by others?

"Of course! It's not just deep affection, it's absolute devotion. I still can't figure it out. How can that newly appointed top scholar compare to Cheng Lanzhou? He can't compare in looks or knowledge. Little sister, what exactly do you see in him?"

Only the original owner of this body knows the answer to this question. Jiang Yutang touched the tip of his nose and casually made up an excuse: "Maybe he's good at making people happy."

Thinking of Cheng Lanzhou's handsome yet cold face, after making the original owner offer her warm face to his cold backside for so long, she was finally tricked into having an affair.

"What a terrible thing," Jiang Yutang blurted out unconsciously.

Jiang Huaiyu misunderstood her meaning and casually started scolding Cheng Lanzhou on her behalf.

"That's right. Blame Cheng Lanzhou for being blind and ignoring our beautiful and charming little sister. If he had treated you well, he might be holding a baby by now."

Jiang Yutang has now witnessed firsthand how much the Jiang family dotes on her. This feeling is far more impactful than reading about it in novels; experiencing it firsthand is far more immersive.

A cold laugh suddenly came from behind.

Jiang Yutang sensed something was wrong and turned around to meet Cheng Lanzhou's gloomy face.

Cheng Lanzhou, supported by Cheng Daier, seemed to be going to find water, but unfortunately, they passed by behind them.

"Don't talk about people during the day or ghosts at night. It seems no one in the Jiang family taught them this saying."

Cheng Daier glared at the two of them angrily. If she hadn't been supporting Cheng Lanzhou, she probably would have already rushed up to argue with them.

"Oh, I'm sorry, we'll try to avoid it next time."

Jiang Huaiyu apologized immediately, and his frank and straightforward manner shocked even Jiang Yutang.

"you!"

"Eldest sister, don't argue with them, Mother is still waiting for us."

Cheng Lanzhou stopped Cheng Daier from stepping forward to attack, shifted his gaze away from Jiang Huaiyu, and left without giving Jiang Yutang a single glance from beginning to end.

For some reason, Jiang Yutang felt a tightness in her chest and gasped for breath, clutching her chest with her right hand. Jiang Huaiyu, who was beside her, was so frightened that she quickly supported her.

"Little sister, what's wrong?"

"I'm fine... I'm probably just too tired." Jiang Yutang shook her head weakly; this sudden symptom came on quite unexpectedly.

"Okay, let me help you to a shady spot to sit down and rest."

Pengcheng is not a large city, and the exiled people had limited freedom of movement. Everywhere there were tiled houses, which gave off the dry smell of earth in the hot weather.

Jiang Yutang looked at the drifting clouds in the sky, leaned back under the locust tree to rest, closed her eyes and thought about the symptoms she had just experienced.

Is it a heart condition?

Ancient medical technology was limited, and the specific cause could not be found. She also had no way to travel back to her original world with this body for examination.

But she thought it wasn't that simple. Everything had been fine until she met Cheng Lanzhou today, and then this unexpected accident happened for no reason.

Could it be that this body is reacting to Cheng Lanzhou?
