Chapter 347

Jiang Anning's gentle persuasion seemed to be sincere.

"I think, why don't Mrs. An find an opportunity to have a good talk with Miss An? You have to talk it out before you make any judgments!"

"After all, we are just here now, sharing what we see and think."

"That may not be what Miss An really thinks. When the officials are investigating a case, they have to give the criminal a chance to defend himself!"

Jiang Anning looked at the county magistrate: "Is that what you said, sir?"

"Even if the evidence is conclusive, and the witnesses and evidence clearly point to this matter, as long as the prisoner feels dissatisfied and thinks that the sentence should not be like this, he still has the right to appeal!"

“If even the law is written in this way, how much more so you and I?”

Jiang An Ning took Madam An's hand affectionately and said comfortingly: "Not to mention, how can there be any overnight hatred between mother and daughter?"

While comforting her, she also did not forget to pierce her heart: "Even if you are not biological mother and daughter, you have been together day and night for so many years, and Miss An was raised by you personally. Even if the influence of blood is difficult to change, there is a saying that goes, "You become what you follow!" Miss An has been by your side for so many years, and has been influenced by you. Apart from other things, she must be a bit like you in character, right?"

"How could someone as cheerful and open-minded as you raise a sinister person?"

It would have been better if she hadn't said this. Once she said it, Mrs. An became even more depressed!

Miss An, isn’t she a sinister person?
Let’s not talk about what happened in recent days for now.

There is nothing that can make her happy.

Even in the past... Whenever Mrs. An thought about the past, she would feel exhausted and depressed when she had put so much effort into raising her daughter but she turned out to be a mess in every way.

Jiang Anning's words sounded like comforting, but in fact, every word was heartbreaking.

It didn't have any effect of comforting her at all. Instead, it helped Mrs. An recall and consolidate her memories of how bad Miss An was when she was young.

Mrs. An was confused as she was involved in the matter, but the county magistrate was a bystander who could see things clearly.

Listening to Jiang Anning's words, which seemed to be well-intentioned but were actually meant to sow discord, the county magistrate's eyes grew darker and he couldn't help but look up to Jiang Anning.

This woman...is indeed not as simple as she appears.

He glanced at Mrs. An, then lowered his head to drink tea to hide the strange look in his eyes.

He was tactful enough not to speak at this time.

First of all... Mrs. An was obviously already trapped in it at this time, and was completely led by Jiang An Ning's few words.

Even if he said something, he would get no benefit at all.

It’s better to just pretend to be stupid and deaf and pretend that you know nothing.

The less trouble, the better.

Anyway, he and Madam An were just allies.

Mrs. An didn't seem to have a very close relationship with him.

However, when their interests are the same, they will form an alliance and support each other.

When interests diverge in the future, we may even stab each other in the back.

It would be better to seize this handle now.

It might come in handy someday.

There's really no need to say it out loud at this time.

Secondly...if he couldn't get along with Mrs. An, he could instead build a good relationship with Jiang An Ning, which would be considered a good relationship.

In short: For him, the best strategy is not to offend either side.

Mrs. An was indeed furious at what Jiang An Ning said.

"It is indeed impossible for me to raise a daughter like this, but who knows, there might be someone who likes to gossip and secretly say some indecent things to her behind my back, and teach her the wrong way!"

She sighed, "What's more, now that she knows that she is not my biological daughter, she probably hates me in her heart, even though I am also the victim in this matter, even though the one who did the daughter-swap thing was actually the woman she regarded as her biological mother! But after so many years of being influenced by others, she might have already thought that I did it on purpose to separate them."

"In her heart, maybe I am the real enemy."

"Actually, maybe that's true if you think about it. After all, she actually knows nothing."

"When she suddenly realized that the person who had always been by her side and taking care of her was her real mother, she would probably think in her heart how much injustice she and her mother had suffered. How could she trust me, a person who has no blood relationship with her?" Mrs. An smiled self-deprecatingly.

Jiang An Ning comforted her, "Perhaps Miss An was also deceived by the treacherous person? There is no evidence. Can the relationship between you two be changed just by that person's words? Even if Miss An is not your daughter, how much care have you shown for her over the years? Even though I have never seen it with my own eyes, I can see it from the intimacy between you two! How can the affection between you and your daughter be taken away by the word blood?"

"What if Miss An really has some difficulties that forced her to do this? Madam An, you have convicted her without even asking any questions. That would really alienate the relationship between mother and daughter."

Jiang An Ning seemed to be persuading Mrs. An not to be angry and to be more understanding of Miss An's choice.

In fact, the more she said this, the more annoyed Mrs. An became!

What other difficulties could there be?
What else could be the last resort?

She really understood her daughter, so how could she not know that her daughter regarded her as an enemy and regarded her, her adoptive mother, as an obstacle to separate this evil daughter from her biological mother.

There was no need to think carefully about why she had to separate An Yanran and that woman.

It was obvious that the woman had stolen her biological daughter back then!
She used this counterfeit to replace her biological daughter, and took away her biological daughter's years of love and the wealth and glory she deserved.

It was obvious that the mother and daughter were the ones who harmed her, but in the end it seemed like they were the victims, and she, the one who was truly harmed, became the bad person.

Where can we go to seek justice in this world?
Originally, she didn't want to care about it.

Even though she had known from the beginning that the daughter she had raised with all her heart and soul had always been eyeing her family property, she had never said anything, let alone tried to stop her.

In fact, it can be said that they both get what they need from each other.

So, she actually considered leaving her huge fortune to her after she passed away.

Unexpectedly, if people become really greedy, it will become a bottomless pit.

Not only did he want money, he even wanted to take her life.

That being the case...

Mrs. An took a deep breath and made up her mind.

"Of course I know you are right."

"I have been with her and her daughter for many years. How could I not have feelings for her?"

"But no matter how much affection one has, after being hurt so many times, it will grow cold."

Mrs. An's voice was cold: "I care about her daughter, even though she has no blood relationship with me, even though I already knew the truth, and even though I already knew that the one who killed my biological daughter was her biological mother."

Jiang Anning and the county magistrate both showed surprised expressions. "I always thought that the child was innocent. She was just a baby at the time. It was her mother who did it. It had nothing to do with her. There was really no need for me to vent my anger on an innocent child."

"Not to mention that this innocent child was pampered by me and raised as my own daughter."

"But I never expected that after giving my heart to you, I would not get your heart back."

"I think I have never treated her badly over the years. Even though I knew early on that she was not my biological daughter and that it was her biological mother who murdered my biological daughter, I never showed any resentment."

"It is to prevent this hatred from spreading to innocent children."

"But I didn't expect that my good daughter is just as vicious as her biological mother."

"For so many years, not only did you usurp my biological daughter's wealth and glory, you also wanted to kill me. You brought her biological mother to my home and took care of her as an old lady."

"For such a shameless and heartless person, why should I consider the so-called feelings and leave room for him again and again?"

"Besides, I was very kind to them, but they never gave me any leeway."

"They just wish they could kill me completely to get rid of their worries."

Madam An sneered, "They were always the ones who were unkind first, so don't blame me for being unjust."

"I have given them countless chances, hoping they will stop and not ruin the mother-daughter relationship in vain."

"How..."

She chuckled a few times, and through gritted teeth, she revealed an irrepressible fate: "I'm the only one who cares about this friendship."

"In their eyes, I am nothing more than an obstacle, an evil person who prevents them from reuniting as mother and daughter!"

Jiang Anning quickly apologized and said, "It's all my fault."

"I shouldn't have said this because I was so outspoken..."

Mrs. Ann interrupted her.

"How can I blame you for this? If you hadn't told me all this today, I would still be in the dark and know nothing."

"Then I continued to be deceived by her sweet words, and because of the mother-daughter relationship, I could never be cruel to her."

"If you hadn't told me this, I would still not know the truth. I would still be defenseless against them. I would die someday without knowing how I died."

Mrs. An grabbed Jiang Anning's hand and patted it gently: "I want to thank you very much for telling me this."

"I was obsessed with the appearance before, trapped in the so-called mother-daughter relationship, hesitant and unable to make up my mind."

"On the contrary, it encourages the ambitions of those jackals, tigers and leopards!"

"Now that you have enlightened me, I will no longer be as soft-hearted as before and allow these two ungrateful people to continue to trample on my head, squander my property, and even try to kill me and take my place!"

Mrs. An made up her mind.

The county magistrate knew that she was acting like this all of a sudden and it was definitely not just what she said on the surface.

After thinking about it for a moment, he followed the other person's advice and spoke.

"I think Mrs. An is right!"

"An Ning, there's really no need for you to feel guilty about this matter! As a bystander, I really have to say something fair."

"If you hadn't exposed this matter today, I'm afraid Madam An would still not know the truth and would still be trapped in confusion!"

"I'm afraid that by then, those ruthless people will really kill me."

"If it really comes to that, then there will be no response from heaven or earth."

"It is only by making up our minds now and cutting off our relationship with that ungrateful bastard that we can stop the loss in time."

"I think this is a good move."

Jiang Anning was a little unsure. What were these two people up to?

Could it be that he already knew she would say this, so he had already reconciled the lines in advance?

Can……

She said this only on the spur of the moment.

If Mrs. An hadn't started it herself, she would definitely not have said these things.

Now it is just a coincidence.

But why do these two people have such consistent opinions?

Jiang An Ning couldn't help but wonder, could there be any other secrets about Miss An's life?

Mrs. An had long known that Miss An was not her biological daughter, and had long wanted to get rid of this burden.

But I just haven't found the right opportunity.

Now that she said this, I have a legitimate opportunity to get rid of him.

The more Jiang Anning thought about it, the more he felt that this was the most likely possibility.

But no matter what the reason was, things had come to this point and she could only wait and see.

"That would be great if that's the case."

Jiang Anning pretended to be relieved, as if she was really comforted.

"I'm really worried that I might say something wrong and hurt the mother-daughter relationship between Mrs. An and Miss An."

"If that's the case, then it's really my fault."

"I'm just afraid that I'll never be able to feel at ease in my life."

Jiang An Ning smiled and said, "Since Madam An has already made up her mind, and I haven't ruined your plan, I can put my mind at ease."

"What's the crime or not? How could it ruin my business?"

Mrs. An was even more loving: "Just put your mind at ease! You have helped me a lot in this matter today!"

"If I still blame you, then what kind of person would I be? I should thank you properly."

"If you hadn't told me about this and awakened me in time, I would still be confused by the situation and unable to see the essence of the matter."

She said seriously: "I should prepare a good gift and thank you properly!"

"But I'm old now, and there's a gap of years between me and you young girls. I really don't know what girls of your age like."

"How about this, I won't be that annoying elder! I won't force anything on you just because you don't want it! If there's anything you want or want to do, as long as it's within my ability, just let me know and I'll satisfy you, okay?"
