Chapter 55
Listening to their discussion, Shen Yifang felt as uncomfortable as a knife.She disdains to associate with these mediocre people, and she is unwilling to curry favor with the daughters of those powerful families, thinking that she can rely on her own advantages to become the emperor's new favorite concubine, and she can look down on the entire harem.She never thought about the pain she would endure once someone stepped on her feet.

That is torture that is worse than death!

Shen House.

"Miss Fifth has been in the palace for a long time. Why haven't the people who announced the good news come to the door? Didn't they say that they left a sign?" Mrs. Shen managed to regain some energy and put a lot of troubles in the family in order. Shun, then I remembered the one in the palace.

The mother on the side waited carefully, not daring to speculate rashly, so she could only comfort the old lady and said: "Don't worry too much, old lady, maybe it's because it hasn't been canonized yet. I haven't seen any good news from other aristocratic families. I'm afraid the emperor is busy with government affairs and can't Get distracted."

The old lady nodded, it made sense.

"It's too disgraceful at the big house... What's going on with the big man's lawsuit, but can there be help? Anyway, he is also a member of the Shen family. If he is really convicted, the Shen family will not be ashamed." Just... Tell me, what kind of crime did you do? First, there was a perverted and rebellious Ninth Girl, and then there was a life lawsuit. Alas... It seems that I am really old and can't manage this family anymore... ..." The old lady sighed and leaned on the pillow, her expression solemn.

Mother Du pinched the old lady's shoulders with moderate strength, and comforted the old lady: "Don't worry too much, old lady, those bad things will always be resolved. Isn't there still the old lady and the second old lady..."

After her persuasion, the old lady felt relieved immediately, and her frowning brows were slightly loosened. "I shouldn't have to worry about these things as an old woman. But look... there is no one in this house who can do things. Although the second daughter-in-law is in charge of Zhongfu, after all, she is a little narrow-minded and only cares about her. Those things about the second room. Although the eldest room is a concubine, it is also surnamed Shen, and she doesn't think about it, it hurts the bones and connects the tendons."

"What the old lady said is..." Mother Du agreed, not daring to disobey one bit, but she didn't think so in her heart. "This house really cannot do without you, old lady!"

If it is said that the most eccentric, it is the old lady.Because there is only the second master as a concubine, so he is very important, and naturally he looks down on the concubines born to those aunts.In the past, the big house had a bit of face in front of the old lady. It was because the old man had the ability to manage the medical clinic extremely well, and he paid a lot of things to the old lady, so he was able to get a word of appreciation from her old lady.The second wife didn't follow suit, and she didn't care about the people in the other rooms at all.

However, she only dared to think about these words in her heart, and dared not speak them out.

The old lady finally felt a little more comfortable in her heart. Just as she was about to lie down and rest for a while, she heard the noise in the east yard, which made people feel uneasy. "Mother Du, go outside and have a look, what's going on?"

Mother Du took the order, went out for a walk, asked the reason, and hurried back to report. "If you go back to the old lady, it's the young master..."

"What's the matter with him?" Just when the injuries on his body were healed, the moths started again?A concubine is a concubine, and there really are no rules.The old lady sneered in her heart, while supporting herself lazily, she asked.

Mother Du hesitated for a while, but still told the old lady what she had inquired about without any concealment. "It's not a big deal. It seems that the eldest young master fell in love with a commoner woman and wanted to marry her as a concubine. The eldest wife refused, and the two of them started arguing..."

When the old lady heard this, her face suddenly became ugly. "Just because of such a trivial matter, can the house be disturbed? This Mrs. Chen is really a worry!"

"Old madam, take care of yourself, don't bother your heart and mind for the junior's affairs..." Madam Du advised in a vague way, for fear that she might make another mistake.

"How can I feel at ease when there is such a big commotion? Go, send someone to invite the eldest wife and the eldest young master over. I want to see which family's woman it is that disturbed Shen's family." The old lady He ordered with a straight face, and spent most of the energy he had cultivated with great difficulty.

Mother Du didn't dare to delay, and immediately ordered Haitang in the room to go.

After a while, the anxious eldest wife and the obsequious young master hurried over.After kowtowing to the old lady, the young master Shen Cong'en spoke first, and reported to the old lady in a coquettish manner: "Grandmother, grandson is not too young. I thought I could marry a wife and have children smoothly, but I didn't expect that he didn't know what to do. The Han family actually resigned. The grandson was also worried about the heirs of the Shen family, so he thought about taking a concubine first, so that he could give birth to a big fat boy as soon as possible to make grandma happy... Who knew that the mother was stunned If it is not allowed, the grandson will not understand. There are three unfilial acts, and the greatest thing is to have no descendants. Is it wrong for the grandson to do this?"

Seeing that her son was so unruly, the eldest wife yelled herself before the old lady could speak, feeling angry and anxious.This son is really worrying.Looking at it on weekdays, he is still sensible.But why did he go to the unnamed medical clinic, and after being beaten back, he seemed to be a completely different person?
"Forgive me, old madam, En'er is too reckless to speak so unscrupulously, and I hope old madam will show mercy..." The eldest madam always keeps her low profile in front of the old madam.Fearing that his son would offend the old lady if he was not careful, he pleaded guilty with a shy face.

Shen Cong'en didn't take it seriously, but after learning that he had accidentally made a mistake, he also lowered his head, cupped his hands and said, "It's my grandson who was too impulsive, grandma forgive me."

Seeing that they were willing to bow their heads and admit their mistakes, the old lady finally dissipated a little of the anger in her heart, but her words were still stern. "Such a trivial matter, is it worth causing the whole mansion to know about it? How decent is it!"

"The old lady is teaching you." The eldest lady lowered her eyes, but she was extremely disdainful in her heart.

It's a trivial matter, and calling them over for questioning, isn't it too much of a fuss?

Just as the old lady was about to reprimand her, she saw the second wife stepping into the room in a hurry, without even making a notification, she knelt down in front of the old lady crying, and said sobbingly: "Old lady...you have to do it for Fang My sister is in charge..."

The old lady frowned, and asked inexplicably, "Why did you say that, isn't Sister Fang being left in the palace?"

The Second Wife's delicate makeup was smudged by tears, completely inconsistent with her usual tidy and dignified appearance.But at this time, she didn't care about her manners anymore, as soon as she thought of the hope of the Shen family being vain and her poor daughter becoming a palace maid, her heart ached and she wished she could faint.
