Chapter 220 Why Do You Pretend To Be Confused (2 More)
Mingyu took a step forward, trying to block Shen Tianshu, but was pulled back a few steps by Shen Tianshu, avoiding the duster in Xu's hand.
"If the daughter makes a mistake, the mother can report back to the father and ask the family to deal with the daughter. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to take action directly!"
"Shu'er is right!" Shen Zhonglei strode into the house from the outside. When he saw the feather duster in Mrs. Xu's hand, he snatched it away angrily and said, "You say this and that have no rules every day. I think you are the only one." There are really no more and more rules. Not to mention that Shu'er is not your child, even if it is your biological child, you can't beat her when she gets older!"
"Sir..." Mr. Xu looked at Shen Zhonglei in surprise. Although they had quarreled in the morning over who would take the blame, they had shut out the others and quarreled behind closed doors.
Now Shen Zhonglei actually said this to her in front of Shen Tianshu and the servants in the house. He simply tore off her dignity as the mistress of the house, threw her to the ground, and then trampled her to pieces.
Hear Shen Zhonglei say again: "Shu'er went out early in the morning today. It is indeed urgent, and he has to do business. I know it, but I didn't have time to tell you. Who knew you would just use the topic like this? Why, it's not over yet. Gone?"
Previously, when Shen Tianshu contradicted him with words or had a bad attitude, Xu just felt angry.
But these few words from Shen Zhonglei were like steel needles, piercing deeply into her heart.
Xu's eyes instantly turned red, but because Shen Tianshu was present, she suppressed the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes.
Before she could speak, Shen Zhonglei suddenly said: "I just received a letter from my hometown. My mother feels that our back house is too uneasy, and she plans to come to Yongzhou Mansion in a few days.
"I originally thought my mother was making too much fuss, but now that I see you like this, I really need my mother to set some rules for you!"
As soon as she heard that Mrs. Shen was coming, Mrs. Xu's face, which was flushed with anger, turned pale instantly.
After marrying Shen Zhonglei, she carefully served as a good daughter-in-law for more than ten years under the nose of Mrs. Shen, and suffered terribly.
After finally waiting for Shen Zhonglei to make a career and finally be able to establish his own business, now Mrs. Shen actually wants to reach out to Yongzhou Mansion?
When she thought of Mrs. Shen, Mrs. Xu felt a sense of suffocation coming over her, making her unable to breathe.
"You can spend the past few days in your room reflecting and reflecting, and then you can start preparing for your mother's arrival."
Shen Zhonglei said these last words, then turned around and left.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to take Shen Tianshu out with him.
"Dad, is grandma really coming here?" After leaving the main courtyard, Shen Tianshu immediately swept away the boredom and asked Shen Zhonglei with a face full of joy.
"Yes, you also know her temper. Since she has written to her, she must come."
"Great, I miss my grandma so much!" Shen Tianshu clapped his hands.
"That's not true. You have been raised by an old lady since you were a child. We haven't seen you for several years. How can you not think about it?"
Shen Zhonglei had not seen his mother for several years while he was away in office, and he was very excited at this time.
"But sister Yunyao has just returned, and her grandmother is about to go out. Will there be no one at home to take care of her?"
In fact, what Shen Tianshu wants to say more is that Mrs. Shen has gone out. Is there anyone in the family who can control Shen Yunyao? Don't turn around and cause another incident of running away from home.
Shen Zhonglei didn't think about it at all. Instead, he introduced to his daughter: "Even if the old lady is not at home, there are still your uncle, aunt, uncle and aunt, a whole family. How can you not take care of her!"
When asked by Shen Tianshu, Shen Zhonglei suddenly remembered that his mother's letter did not say whether Shen Yunyao had arrived home.
Calculating according to the time when Shen Yunyao set off, it has been more than half a month. Could it be that something happened on the road?
Shen Zhonglei couldn't help but become worried. He didn't care to chat with Shen Tianshu and hurried back to the study to write a reply to Mrs. Shen.
Shen Tianshu was not in a hurry to return to Shuangtang Courtyard. After strolling around in the back garden, he turned around and went to Shen Yunhui's room.
"Sister, you're here!" Shen Yunhui had been worried that Shen Tianshu would be punished by Mrs. Xu. When she saw her coming, she quickly took her hand and looked her up and down.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I was afraid that you would be worried, so I came here to check on you first." Shen Tianshu said with a smile.
"It's great that you're okay. I'm worried to death." Seeing that Shen Tianshu was really okay, Shen Yunhui put her heart back in her stomach.
"My mother was so angry this morning. I was almost scared to death."
"So thanks to you reporting the news to me, I quickly went to find my father to bring in reinforcements, and I was spared punishment!"
"Is it true?" Shen Yunhui immediately became happy when she heard that she had helped Shen Tianshu, "It's great to be able to help eldest sister."
"Yes, thank you. I will give you a gift later. Thank you very much!"
As Shen Tianshu spoke, he raised his hand and pinched the tip of Shen Yunhui's nose, and then said: "What happened this morning, I have to thank Aunt Ping for sending someone to deliver a letter to dad, otherwise the few people in my room would have been killed." Beat me half to death. I won’t let you go to Aunt Ping’s room, so please help me go and say thank you!”
"Sister, you don't have to be so polite. My aunt always remembers the good things you did to me and my aunt, and she always said she would find an opportunity to repay you!
"It's a pity that we don't have much ability and can't help you much. We can only help you with such small things."
"As long as my aunt is willing, she can be of great help to me!"
After hearing this, Shen Yunhui opened her eyes wide in surprise and asked, "How can Auntie help eldest sister?"
Shen Tianshu said meaningfully: "Go and tell your aunt this, and she will naturally understand."
As a small microphone, Shen Yunhui is still very useful.
That night, Ping Niang avoided everyone and came to see Shen Tianshu.
"What did the eldest lady say today? I wonder what it means? What ability do I have to help the eldest lady?"
"You've already come, so why bother pretending to be confused because you understand!"
Hearing this, Ping Niang took a deep breath and said nervously: "This matter is not trivial. If you can't hit it with one blow, it's not a joke! What's more, this year is a crucial year to decide whether the master will be promoted or not. If it happens later, If there is any scandal in the house, wouldn't it mean that my career will be ruined?"
"Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion." After Shen Tianshu said that, seeing Ping Niang still looking hesitant, he added, "The old lady wrote a letter today, saying that she would come to Yongzhou Mansion to help my father organize the back house."
Hearing this, Ping Niang's eyes suddenly widened, she looked at Shen Tianshu and said, "What the eldest lady means is..."
"The Xu family has lost its natal family now. The old lady's coming here is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we don't take the opportunity to overthrow the Xu family, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity again in the future."
Hearing this, Ping Niang hesitated for a moment with a troubled face. Finally, thinking of her child who had died before he was born, she gritted her teeth and leaned into Shen Tianshu's ear, whispering a few words.
"I know so much. Whether you can find someone or not depends on the girl's ability."
