Staking it All

Madam Jiang was shocked. She hurriedly stood up and accidentally knocked over the chair behind her. She grabbed Yu Kangtai's hand tightly, as if she was grabbing onto a life-saving straw.

"Master, I've served you with all my might for so many years and even gave birth to a pair of children for the Yu family. Even if I don't have any contributions, I've worked hard. Do you really want me to be captured?"

Yu Kangtai could not bear it. However, he knew that Madam Jiang deserved it. He should not be soft-hearted. Hence, he turned his face away from Mrs. Jiang.

Madam Jiang knelt on the ground and cried.

"Master, even if you don't care about our many years of husband and wife relationship, don't you care about Ah Sheng and Pingping? I'm their biological mother. If I am convicted, how would they live in the future? How can Sheng take the imperial examination in the future? How can Pingping talk about marriage in the future?"
