Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard a maid outside the door saying: "The old lady is here."
As the words fell, Fangzhu supported the old lady and walked in from the door.
Shen Fengxu and Shen Yulou saluted together: "Granddaughter, please give my regards to the old lady."
The eldest lady wanted to get out of bed, but she was probably too weak, so she waved her hand and said, "Just lie down."
The eldest lady probably didn't expect that the old lady would actually come to visit her in person, so she was a little surprised. However, before she could say anything, she heard the old lady say again: "You are not feeling well, so take a good rest."
The eldest lady nodded: "Yes, thank you very much, madam, for your consideration. My daughter-in-law understands."
"Yes, mother naturally needs to have a good rest. Aunt Zhao was ill before and is still in the yard and can't come out. Mother naturally needs to be more careful." Shen Fengxu smiled slightly.
The old lady was passing by Chunfang Courtyard and heard that the eldest lady was ill, so she came to see her condition. However, when she suddenly heard Chen Fengxu say that it was related to her grandson, she couldn't help but become anxious and said: "What? Aunt Zhao?" Sick? What about the child? Can the child be saved?"
The old lady didn't care what happened to Aunt Zhao, she only cared about the child in Aunt Zhao's belly.
The eldest lady secretly gouged out Shen Fengxu.
Aunt Zhao's matter has been suppressed by Shen Yanning. Except for the people present that day, no one knows the reason. To the outside world, they only say that Aunt Zhao is sick, so she just stays in the courtyard, and This matter has always been hidden from the old lady.
After all, the old lady has always cared about the child in Aunt Zhao's belly.
Chen Fengxu then said warmly: "Grandma, don't worry, Aunt Zhao and the child in her belly are fine. After all, mother has taken good care of Aunt Zhao. As for Aunt Zhao's illness, mother allowed Aunt Zhao to recuperate in the hospital without any worries. If you go out, I’ll be able to recover in a short time.”
Shen Fengxu especially emphasized the words "no going out".
You can rest in peace and recuperate, but you are not allowed to go out? Isn’t this a lockdown?
Although the old lady has been cultivating herself over the years, she still had a thin layer of anger on her face when it came to her grandson. She said, "If you get sick, please call a doctor! Can you just recuperate in the hospital?"
The eldest lady hurriedly lowered her head and defended: "Yes, my daughter-in-law understands, but... it is the master's decision to let Aunt Zhao rest in peace and recuperate, and my daughter-in-law just follows it."
The old lady has been in the backyard of the inner house for so many years, how could she not know the tricks of the women in the backyard of the inner house? How could Shen Yanning ground the pregnant Aunt Zhao? This was obviously the eldest lady's conspiracy. She originally thought The eldest lady is a kind-hearted, dignified and virtuous person, but she seems to be nothing more than that at the moment.
"Why do you want to ground Aunt Zhao?" The old lady looked at the eldest lady coldly.
There are very few men in the house, only Shen Qing and Shen Cang. Shen Qing is getting older and does not often go back to the house to visit the old lady. Shen Cang is naughty by nature and does not get close to the old lady. The girls in the house are all together. We went to the academy together, and it was rare to have morning and evening meditation every day.
Therefore, the old lady is full of expectations for the child in Aunt Zhao's belly. Even if the child is a girl, the old lady attaches great importance to it.
Seeing that the eldest lady acted like this, the old lady was naturally angry and anxious.
The eldest lady didn't know how to talk about it for a moment. She obviously wouldn't believe it if she just said that Aunt Zhao needed peace of mind to recuperate, but she couldn't say that Aunt Zhao was having an affair with her husband.
She frowned and said: "Old madam, this matter——"
Before the eldest lady could finish speaking, Shen Fengxu said with a smile: "Grandma, my mother is ill now. It is inevitable that she cannot remember the details of that day. Why not let her have a good rest first? It will not be too late to let her explain clearly some other day." .”
The eldest lady and Shen Yulou were both startled.
Shen Fengxu actually helped the eldest lady to speak? Could it be that the sun came out from the south today? This is too incredible.
At this time, it was clearly Shen Fengxu who raised the issue.
The old lady snorted coldly, her anger still lingering.
Chen Fengxu added softly: "My mother is seriously ill and needs to rest. I'm afraid it won't be convenient for her to take care of the household affairs."
The eldest lady suddenly became anxious: "Feng Xu!"
The old lady nodded and said: "Feng Xu is right. During the period when you are sick, the general affairs of the house will be left to the second daughter-in-law. You should also take good care of yourself in the yard and don't go out if you have nothing to do. "
This means handing over the housekeeper's rights to the second wife.
"Old Madam..." The eldest lady was anxious and wanted to get off the bed, but she felt unwell and coughed several times in succession, almost falling down.
Shen Yulou hurriedly stepped forward to help the eldest lady, and whispered softly in her ear: "Mother, this is only temporary. When mother recovers from illness, shouldn't the second lady give back the rights of the housekeeper? Mother is recovering well now. That’s the most important thing.”
If the eldest lady loses her composure, then she is really following Shen Fengxu's wishes. The old lady is just angry for a moment, and it will be fine after this period of time has passed. But if the eldest lady and the old lady have a dispute, then it will be a serious matter. Out of control.
The status of the eldest lady cannot be shaken by the second lady. As long as the eldest lady recovers from her illness, the housekeeper's rights will naturally return to the first lady's hands.
After hearing what Shen Yulou said, the eldest lady calmed down a little and said, "Yes, my daughter-in-law knows."
As she said this, she clenched her fingers tightly under the quilt and glared at Chen Fengxu viciously.
If Shen Fengxu hadn't mentioned this, the old lady would never have taken away her housekeeper's rights.
"That's all, I'll go back and rest first." The old lady snorted coldly, and the maid Fangzhu beside her helped the old lady out.
After the old lady left, Shen Fengxu also smiled and said: "Mother needs to rest, so Fengxu won't disturb her anymore, so I will leave now."
With that said, he also left outside.
Shen Yulou looked at Shen Fengxu's back and said, "Let me see Liu Mei off."
Then he and Shen Fengxu left Chunfangyuan together.
Shen Fengxu smiled softly and said: "Eldest sister, there is no need to send it off. Fengxu can go back alone."
Shen Yulou suddenly shook his head and said with a smile: "Sixth sister, you invited the old lady here, right?"
Shen Fengxu blinked and said, "No way. The old lady just passed by here by chance. How could Fengxu invite her here? What else can the eldest sister say?"
"Mom is sick. You could just like my second sister and say that you are not feeling well and it is inconvenient to come, but you came anyway." There was a hint of coldness in Shen Yulou's beautiful eyes. Although he spoke with a smile, he still couldn't come. With a bit of chill, "You came here just to say these things in front of the old lady, right?"
"Sister, you really think too much." Shen Fengxu smiled sweetly, "The old lady happened to be passing by, how could Fengxu know about it."
