Chapter 1070: Chapter 1070 The Matter is Exposed

Until Divine Doctor Zhang had finished his noon meal and taken his leave, the Old Madam was clearly distracted.

However, no sooner had Divine Doctor Zhang disappeared than she immediately ordered the maid to summon Situ Yongjie over.

Unexpectedly, the maid returned to report that the Old Master had left the mansion and had not yet returned.

The Old Madam then ordered the servants to wait at the main entrance, to bring him to the Refreshing Courtyard as soon as he returned, as she had urgent matters to discuss with him.

It was almost evening when Situ Yongjie, exhausted, finally returned.

"Old Master, the Old Madam requests your presence."

As soon as he entered the doorway, the maid stepped forward to block Situ Yongjie, bending halfway, and respectfully said.

Situ Yongjie furrowed his brows: "Did the Old Madam mention what it’s about?"

"The maid is not sure." The maid hesitated, then added, "Ever since Divine Doctor Zhang left, the Old Madam has been restless."

"Divine Doctor Zhang?"

Situ Yongjie was stunned for a moment: "What did he come for?"

"He said he was passing by our mansion and stopped to check on the Old Madam."

"Oh!"

Situ Yongjie responded and turned towards the Refreshing Courtyard to find out what the Old Madam wanted.

The Old Madam was reciting scriptures inside the Buddhist hall.

Leaving the guard outside, Situ Yongjie walked into the Buddhist hall alone, saw the Old Madam with her back to him, eyes closed in meditation before the Buddha statue, and quietly called out, "Mother."

Hearing the call, the Old Madam slowly turned her head, placing a string of Buddha Beads on the table: "Jiejie has returned."

"Mother, what did you call me here for?"

"Actually, it’s nothing much."

The Old Madam hesitantly looked at Situ Yongjie, filled with doubts herself, not sure if she was right or wrong, but since it concerned the flesh and blood of the Situ Family, no matter how difficult it was to broach the subject, it was still better to ask clear questions.

Seeing the hesitation in the old woman’s eyes, Situ Yongjie knew she had more to say.

"Mother, feel free to ask whatever you wish."

"Jiejie, Divine Doctor Zhang came to our mansion today."

Situ Yongjie nodded in acknowledgment, as the maid had already informed him.

"He took Miss Mo’s pulse."

"Is there an issue with the baby?"

"No."

"Then what exactly is it about?"

The Old Madam hesitated: "He said Miss Mo has been pregnant for over three months now, Jiejie, did you start a relationship with Miss Mo back in Mo Family Village?"

The entire afternoon, the only possibility the Old Madam could think of was that.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yongjie’s face immediately changed, and his voice deepened: "Mother, is there any chance Doctor Zhang is mistaken about this?"

Situ Yongjie appeared troubled.

The Old Madam grew serious: "Who is Divine Doctor Zhang? His diagnoses have never been wrong. Jiejie, what exactly is going on? Quickly, tell your mother."

Situ Yongjie shared the entire matter with the Old Madam.

His relationship with Mo Xiuzhi had only been for a month, where would a three-month-old fetus come from? He was clearly being framed by Mo Xiuzhi.

Upon hearing this, the Old Madam was immediately furious, their dignified General’s Mansion was actually schemed against by a group of country folk, this was intolerable.

"Summon that vile wench over here, has she eaten the gall of a leopard, daring to scheme against the General’s Mansion, clearly carrying someone else’s bastard yet daring to implicate our General’s Mansion, how preposterous." Upon learning this news, the Old Madam was furiously indignant, the grandson she had been eagerly anticipating was lost just like that.

The maids thought she was merely venting her anger.

Therefore, no one went to summon Mo Xiuzhi.
