Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Jiang Yiru grew rather nostalgic as she thought about the past.

“It was your great-grandfather and his oldest son who did that. Besides your grandfather, their entire family was probably involved. But there was no concrete evidence.

“Your grandfather guessed what had happened and from then on, he was at loggerheads with his older brother and father. Although he was born in the Jiang family, he was not very interested in medicine and did not display much talent. He only learnt some superficial skills and had no ambitions to be the head of the household. He was peaceable by nature and was more interested in calligraphy and painting.

“I was the only daughter from the first wife’s branch of the family. In old families, many believe only sons should inherit the family business. But in my branch, I was the most talented when it came to medicine. Among my family members, I was exceptionally talented in medicine and became famous at a young age. Be it managing the family or medicine, I was the most suitable to be the head of the household.

“Besides, the second wife’s offspring were not very accomplished in medicine and could not inherit the family business. They were also not as good at management. Later on, I won the fight to be head of the household!”

When Jiang Yiru thought about that family fight in the past, she spoke very calmly.

Dozens of years had passed. Those people who had been filled with ardor were either dead, injured, or living in seclusion.

In these times, there were probably many who were unwilling to mention their connection with the Jiang family.

Jiangnan Medical Family!

It had been so famous!

But later on, the family’s fortunes had declined, and it had fallen on hard times. Many of them had killed themselves from shame.

Now, even Jiang Yiru did not know how many members from the second wife’s branch were left or whether anyone had survived.

Jiang Yiru looked at Jiang Xun. “By right, I should be the head of the family, but your great-grandfather despised me for being a female. Your grandfather did not want brothers to fight among themselves. He could neither help his father and older brother in their plots against me nor help me to deal with them. He never forgot that your great-grandfather had caused my mother to miscarry and die young. He could not accept his father and older brother’s behavior, so he ran away from home.

“He did not leave rashly but planned it and took some of his belongings. He left alone and never came back.”

In her youth, she had been close to this younger cousin. They had grown up together, and as the older cousin, she had always cared for him!

She had not expected things to end like that.

Jiang Xun was in shock!

He had not expected his grandfather to have a past like that.

When he thought about it carefully, he vaguely remembered that when he was young, his grandfather had told him something about his past and taught him about brotherly love. Whether they were rich or poor in the future, they must not fight each other!

He had also spoken of his father and his older brother and had expressed his displeasure.

But Jiang Xun had been very young at that time. He did not understand some of it and did not pay much attention.

In recent years, he had been busy trying to survive and had not thought of this matter. Now that he heard Jiang Yiru’s words, he recalled some of what his grandfather had told him.

What a surprise!

This woman was his grandfather’s older cousin. Although she was a cousin, she was akin to a sister!

More importantly, he had a great-aunt and he had met her today. Jiang Xun, who had been an orphan for so many years, was astonished.

He thought that he had no other relatives in this wide world except his two younger cousins. He had not expected this great-aunt to still be alive.
