Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 122 Find a way

Jiang Yun is the maiden name of the second wife of the Shen family.

Mrs. Shen took a deep breath and barely suppressed her inner anger.

After working hard for several days, Mrs. Shen's face, which originally had charm, was now stained with a hint of fatigue.

Her body swayed a bit, but she still forced herself to cheer up and glared at Mrs. Shen Er.

Mrs. Shen Er raised her lips in a sarcastic arc.

"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that? Don't talk nonsense without evidence. Any words you say could cause me great trouble."

"Someone as irrational as my sister-in-law is not suitable to be the housekeeper. It's better to give up the power. After all, no matter what choice is made, it is to make the Shen family develop better and better. Sister-in-law, don't you think so?"

Mrs. Shen's expression was gentle, but every word she said was actually pressuring. As long as Mrs. Shen disagreed, it would mean that she was not putting the family's interests first.

Mrs. Shen's chest was burning with anger, and she was extremely angry about Mrs. Shen Er's behavior. However, Mrs. Shen touched the interests of everyone, and no one spoke up for her. The only patriarch who was willing to help Mrs. Shen was unconscious.

She slammed her hand on the table. "Sister-in-law, without evidence, all this is useless. I only believe in evidence. If the authorities also believe that the clan leader's coma is related to me, then they can bring people to arrest me directly."

"Madam, please get the guest out!"

Mrs. Shen's attitude was unprecedentedly tough, and it could be said that Mrs. Shen II was dragged out by force.

She said viciously: "Sister-in-law!"

"A man of insight is a hero. If Sister-in-law wants Shen Mengning and Shen Mengwu to grow up safely, she should give up something."

Every word seemed to turn into a sharp blade, piercing Mrs. Shen's heart accurately.

Shen Mengning and Shen Mengwu are her lifeblood.

However, the head of the Shen family is missing, and Mrs. Shen should protect the Shen family for him.

No matter which option is chosen, Mrs. Shen does not want to see it.

"Mammy, tell me, did I really do something wrong?" There was a hint of confusion in Mrs. Shen's eyes, just like when she was still married.

Nanny Li felt extremely distressed. Her young lady had always had a smooth life since she was a child. When had she ever suffered such an injustice?
"Madam, you did nothing wrong. It's their own ambitions that are clearly motivated by their own interests, yet they insist on appearing selfless."

"Think about the head of the Shen family. He has always supported Madam. Madam, we must find a way to invite a miracle doctor and work hard to cure the head of the Shen family."

Mrs. Shen nodded, knowing that what Nanny Li said made sense, but she still couldn't help feeling powerless in her heart.

Only when the family works together can it develop better and better. No wonder the Shen family is tending to fall out of the four major families. How can it develop if the family is not peaceful?

"Ugh!"

Outside.

Shen Fuyu and the Shen sisters hid in the corner, and the conversation reached their ears clearly. They had already noticed the serious situation in the mansion in the teahouse, but it was not until they returned home that Shen Fuyu discovered what kind of pressure Mrs. Shen was facing.

Sure enough, power is always fascinating.

As long as the power of the family is in Mrs. Shen's hands, she will never be able to live in peace.

"Shen Fuyu, she bullied my mother like that, why did you stop me?" Shen Mengwu asked Shen Fuyu in a low voice.

If Shen Fuyu hadn't grabbed her, Shen Mengwu would have rushed out long ago.

Without waiting for Shen Fuyu to answer, Shen Mengning spoke first.

"Awu, what will happen if you go out? Are you going to attack Aunt directly?" Shen Mengning's eyes were cold and her expression did not change. However, the whiteness of her bones betrayed her feelings. "It will only cause trouble for Mother. Second Aunt will only find an excuse to say that Mother was a poor teacher. How dare we, the younger generation, attack the elders?"

"Shen Mengwu's attack can only show her strength temporarily, and it cannot solve the problem fundamentally." Shen Mengning's gentle and cold profile showed no emotion.

"That's right." Shen Fuyu nodded in agreement.

"The eldest lady's analysis is correct."

Shen Mengwu pursed her lips. She knew in her heart that what Shen Mengning said made sense, but her mother was bullied, and Shen Mengwu couldn't control her anger and wanted to take action to seek justice.

"Awu, I know you're angry." Shen Fuyu soothed her, "Let's find a solution together. Let's not let our impulses ruin things, okay?"

"Besides, Madam has no intention of telling us about this."

"Rushing forward at this time will only increase Madam's worries. It's better to pretend to know nothing and stay quietly in the mansion. That way, we can lower the others' vigilance and take advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters. Maybe we can find evidence."

Shen Fuyu lowered his eyes to hide his thoughts.

The head of the Shen family is in a coma.

Everyone said that it was because Shen Mengwu and Shen Mengning were born evil that caused unrest in the family.

Why was this actually happening? Everyone knew it in their hearts, but there was no substantial evidence. Furthermore, since the situation was beneficial to everyone, everyone accepted it as the truth.

As for the safety of the head of the Shen family, no one cared.

Instead, I hope that the head of the Shen family will remain in a coma, or directly...

In this way, a new patriarch can be elected, and then everyone can take advantage of the situation and gain benefits.

Whoever has a vested interest is the biggest suspect.

Shen Fuyu set his sights on the second wife.

"Miss, Miss, you should have a good rest first. Remember not to let Madam notice anything unusual, otherwise it will only cause trouble for Madam."

Shen Mengning and Shen Mengwu nodded obediently.

The Shen sisters had no better solution, so they could only listen to Shen Fuyu.

……

Outer courtyard.

The maids who did the rough work gathered together and washed their master's clothes.

With Shen Fuyu's deliberate manipulation, Hong Xing and Daya had already become managers.

"Oh! Aunt Hong Xing is really lucky. She met Shen Fuyu and became the manager with just a few words. As expected, as long as one can flatter others, they can easily get the position. It's not like us who have to work so hard here."

"Hongzhu, please stop being jealous of Aunt Hongxing, okay? Back then, Shen Fuyu was just an ordinary servant. Who is always targeting Shen Fuyu? You even dare to say bad things about Hongxing. Be careful that Aunt Hongxing will make things difficult for you."

"If I had known that Shen Fuyu would be so promising, I would have tried to curry favor with him. Maybe I could have become a manager now."

The maids gathered together while washing clothes and gossiped, their tone full of envy and jealousy.

Hong Xing turned a deaf ear to this. As long as it was not too excessive, Hong Xing chose to turn a blind eye.

"Sister Hong Xing, I haven't seen Shen Fuyu for a long time. Do you miss her?"

Daya sighed. Hong Xing was in charge of the laundry room, and Daya was arranged by Shen Fuyu to work in the kitchen. She often ate the leftovers that Zhu Zi didn't want, and her figure became rounder.

"Yes." Hong Xing's cheeks were round, plump, and full of vitality. It was obvious that she was living a very comfortable life. She looked at Daya with a smile in her eyes, "But, Sister Fuyu is busy, so we shouldn't disturb her any more."
