In the afternoon of the next day, in the Dongningbo Mansion.
Chen Fengxu was beating the old lady's back in Yunsong Courtyard.
Because the weather was really hot, the old lady skipped her daily morning and evening routines, but Shen Fengxu would still come over every now and then.
Shen Fengxu's movements were gentle and slow, but the old lady suddenly sighed.
"Grandma seems to be in a bad mood today?" Shen Fengxu moved slightly slowly and asked softly.
The old lady sighed and said, "I don't know how Yuxiang's child is doing in the other courtyard."
The weather in midsummer is quite sultry and unbearable even in Dongningbo's house, let alone in other courtyards. Even if Shen Yuxiang is not short of food and clothing in other courtyards, her life will definitely not be as good as in the other courtyards.
Shen Fengxu thought for a moment and said, "Grandma, why don't you send someone to bring the fourth sister back."
In fact, if it hadn't been for those things in the past, Shen Yuxiang would have been a pretty cute girl. It's a pity that she made one mistake and now it's irreversible.
Hearing this, the old lady raised her hand and held Chen Fengxu's hand, pulling her in front of her.
The old lady stared at Shen Fengxu and asked, "Are you willing to let her come back?"
Chen Fengxu smiled calmly: "Why does grandma ask that? The fourth sister was sent away by her father because she bumped into the eldest sister. Even if grandma wants to ask, she should ask the eldest sister."
The old lady already knows everything about what happened that day.
Shen Yuxiang framed Shen Fengxu one after another, but Shen Fengxu could be so generous and calm about letting Shen Yuxiang come back.
"It has nothing to do with Yulou." The old lady shook her head slightly and asked, "Don't you blame her?"
Shen Fengxu smiled gently, without any reluctance: "The fourth sister was just confused for a moment, how could the granddaughter blame the fourth sister? Besides, the fourth sister has been sent to another hospital for so long, it is time to let the fourth sister come back. .”
In the past, Shen Yuxiang was always by the old lady's side, but now that Shen Yuxiang is in another house, the old lady will naturally feel a little uncomfortable. She is not Shen Yanning, and she is not so partial, but she also truly cares about everyone in the house.
Even if Shen Yuxiang makes a mistake, she is still her granddaughter.
Shen Fengxu knew this very well, not to mention that the admission to Bailu Academy was about to happen. Even if she didn't mention it, the old lady would definitely have someone bring Shen Yuxiang back. It would be better for Shen Fengxu to speak up herself.
"I feel sorry for you." The old lady patted Shen Fengxu's hand and said, "In a few days, the entrance exam of Bailu Academy will be held. Yuxiang not only has no one to take care of her in the other academy, but it is also inconvenient to travel. She still has to take care of her. She took it back."
Shen Fengxu still smiled: "In that case, why not bring the fourth sister back today, so as to save grandma from missing the fourth sister."
Just as the old lady was about to speak, someone suddenly opened the gauze curtain and stepped in.
The person who came was Fangzhu, the maid next to the old lady. She walked quickly to the old lady and said: "Old lady, something happened at Aunt Zhao's place."
The old lady's expression changed.
It doesn't matter if something happens to Aunt Zhao, but there is a child in Aunt Zhao's belly.
She hurriedly asked: "What happened? Can the child be saved?"
"The imperial doctor is taking care of my aunt. Nothing is wrong for the moment. I heard that the eldest lady poisoned Aunt Zhao's food, but the specific situation is still unknown. Now the master and the eldest lady are in Aunt Zhao's yard." Fangzhu said. .
The old lady stood up to leave: "I'll go take a look."
This matter concerns the heirs of the Shen family, so the old lady has to be concerned about it.
"It's so hot outside, grandma should rest in the house." Shen Fengxu comforted her, "No matter how important Aunt Zhao is, she is not as important as grandma's body. If grandma is worried, granddaughter can go for her."
"That's all, go and have a look." The old lady shook her head and sighed.
Although she is not suffering from any chronic illness, she is getting old after all, and her body is getting worse day by day, and she can feel it herself.
Shen Fengxu gathered her quilt and saluted: "Granddaughter, please retire."
After leaving Yunsongyuan, we headed all the way to Aunt Zhao's yard.
Dansha had been holding back her words in Yunsongyuan, and finally asked: "Girl, did the eldest lady take action against Aunt Zhao?"
"Madam, you're not that stupid." Shen Fengxu just smiled faintly, "This time, I'm afraid Aunt Zhao is doing something unnecessary, or more likely, she's going to suffer the consequences."
When Shen Fengxu arrived, Aunt Zhao was lying on the bed, her face was pale and weak, her eyes were still red, a pair of tearful eyes fell on Shen Yanning, and she could not speak.
Chen Fengxu saluted, but no one in the room had time to care about her.
Shen Yanning looked gloomy and asked coldly: "What on earth is going on!"
The matter was so important that Shen Yanning specially invited the imperial doctor.
After the imperial doctor took Aunt Zhao's pulse, he said: "Aunt Zhao's pulse is weak and her qi and blood are unstable. She must have taken medicine that can cause miscarriage. Fortunately, it has been three months, and the amount she has taken is small, so she only needs a small amount." Just take care of it, it’s no big deal.”
Hearing that Aunt Zhao was safe and sound, Shen Yanning looked slightly better.
Aunt Zhao leaned weakly on Shen Yanning and sobbed: "Master, someone wants to harm my child! My death is not a pity, but the child in my belly is so innocent."
Shen Yanning's eyes fell on the eldest lady and she said word by word: "You will take care of her fetus!"
Ever since Aunt Zhao became pregnant, the eldest lady has taken care of all her food, housing and transportation. Now that something happened, Shen Yanning would naturally think of the eldest lady first.
But the eldest lady just shook her head and said very calmly: "Master also knows that it is Aunt Zhao who I am here to take care of. If anything happens to Aunt Zhao, I will definitely be the first to be suspected."
"It is precisely because I believe that the madam will take good care of my children that I begged the master to let the madam take care of my children, but who knows..." Aunt Zhao said and couldn't help crying again.
She is a delicate and charming woman, but she is so full of tears and pear blossoms with rain, which makes people feel pity for her.
"Check! Check everything you have eaten recently!" Shen Yanning shook Aunt Zhao's hand, "Don't worry, I will never condone others to murder you and your children."
Shen Fengxu stood aside and watched.
She had a hunch that things might not be simple this time.
Aunt Zhao's fetus was taken care of by the eldest lady. No matter what went wrong in any aspect, the eldest lady would be involved. Not only could she not take action, she also had to protect Aunt Zhao from any harm.
only……
Would the eldest lady really do this?
Just as she was thinking about it, her eyes suddenly fell on the potted plant in the corner.
It was a brocade-leaf hibiscus. If it were in full bloom, the branches would be beautiful and charming, but the one in front of me had probably been left uncared for for a long time and was already in a state of decline. The flowers and leaves were all haggard and very wilted.
Cinsha seemed to have mentioned that day that Jinye Fusang was sent by Aunt Yun.
At this time, a maid brought up the snacks that Aunt Zhao had used for lunch today.
The imperial doctor checked them one by one, and finally pointed to a bowl of lotus root and lotus soup and said, "This lotus root and lotus soup seems to be mixed with peach kernel powder."
