Listening to Mrs. Shen's words, Shen Yuanlin gradually became quiet, but the light in his eyes also slowly dissipated.
Although he has known for a long time that his family is very worried about his studies, and may even think that he is a little unable to do anything, and many relatives and friends are gossiping behind his back.
Shen Zhonglei was extremely strict with him because of this, but his love for him did not diminish at all.
But now when Mrs. Shen mentioned that he was born stupid because he was not a descendant of the Shen family, he actually breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Shen Zhonglei was not easily noticed.
If he hadn't been staring at him so hard, he might not have noticed it at all.
Shen Yuanlin was originally looking at Shen Zhonglei with great hope, but now he was suddenly discouraged.
At this moment, he seemed to finally understand that the father who originally regarded him as his beloved son would never come back.
Shen Yuanlin sat on the ground blankly, his expression gradually becoming indifferent.
Mrs. Shen took the opportunity and said: "Okay, second brother, you can go about your business, I will handle it here."
Seeing that her son did not express her position immediately, Mrs. Shen said again: "Aren't you still worried about your mother? Your mother will definitely help you handle it properly."
"What are you talking about, mother? I'm sure you can handle it more carefully than I can. It's just that I have to worry about my mother for such a thing, which makes me, a son, really uneasy."
Although Shen Zhonglei said this, he was really hesitant in his heart.
Although Mrs. Shen will handle it, he should have nothing to worry about.
But if he just left it to the old lady to handle everything, he would always feel a little unspeakably worried.
"Second brother, it's not convenient for you to come forward in this matter. I'll ask someone to send them back to their hometown first. After a while, I'll ask your uncle to get a new household registration and official guide, and then I'll find an excuse to send them away far away.
That’s it.
"If you get involved, it won't be a joke if someone finds out!"
Shen Zhonglei was almost persuaded by Mrs. Shen, but suddenly he saw Zhao Haijun's body out of the corner of his eye, and his whole body immediately trembled, and he hurriedly objected: "Mom, Mrs. Xu just killed this Zhao Haijun, who knows what else is hidden in her body
It's a life-threatening thing. If you stay here in the same room with her, how can your son feel at ease?"
"I'm still bringing someone with me!"
Old Mrs. Shen is not afraid of this at all. She has been able to sit firmly as the head of the Shen family for so many years as a widow. She has seen so many tricks and plots that she does not take people of Xu's level seriously.
Seeing Mrs. Shen's resolute attitude, Shen Zhonglei finally had nothing to say, so he bowed to her and said, "Then my son will trouble my mother one more time."
"Okay, go about your business." Mrs. Shen finally reminded, "Now that people here are dead, I don't know if it will have any impact on you catching Lao Dao. You have to think of a good excuse.
Let’s make an explanation to Prince Rui’s Mansion, after all, they are the ones who brought us here.”
After being reminded like this, Shen Zhonglei remembered that there was another incident, glanced at Zhao Haijun's body with extreme disgust, and couldn't help but glared at Xu.
Although he had long had murderous intentions towards Zhao Haijun, Xu's attempt to kill him caught him off guard.
When Shen Zhonglei thought about having to make up a perfect excuse to deal with Xie Yan, Shen Zhonglei felt like he had a lawsuit on his head.
Who is Xie Yan? He is the secret guard leader of Prince Rui's Mansion. He is not someone who can be fooled casually.
"The smell of someone who has just died in this house is terrible. Mom, you should go back to the back house first. I will ask someone to carry the body to the mortuary later and check the cause of death."
But Old Mrs. Shen shook her head and said: "Going back in broad daylight is too eye-catching, and it would be more likely to cause all kinds of speculation if people avoid it. It would be safer to wait until dark before going back."
"Let's go to the West Room for shelter first. Just ask someone to take the body away."
When Mrs. Xu heard Mrs. Shen's arrangement, she felt that although it took some trouble, the final result was still to her liking, so she never said anything again.
She stepped forward and pulled Shen Yuanlin up from the ground. Although she felt that his mood was not right, she thought that the child had just been so severely stimulated. It would be a ghost if everything was normal, so she didn't care too much.
Shen Yuanlin changed from his fierce attitude just now, and was dragged up by Mrs. Xu obediently, and followed her to the west room opposite.
Mrs. Shen asked people to close the door and told everyone not to make any sound.
The sound of footsteps soon sounded outside, and after a moment of hustle and bustle, it became quiet again.
Shen Zhonglei was not here, and Mrs. Shen didn't bother to pay attention to the Xu family and her son. She sat on the couch and closed her eyes to rest. In fact, she was thinking about whether there were any omissions in the gifts given to each family during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In this kind of matter, it is always better to give more than to miss something.
She didn't even miss Mr. Chen, and prepared a generous gift for someone to send to the Chen family.
More than half of this year has passed, and whether you can be promoted depends on the performance appraisal at the end of the year. This is not the time to be stingy. Anyone who can help must be taken care of.
Xu felt a little embarrassed when she stayed aside, and then turned her attention to Shen Yuanlin.
She cautiously approached Shen Yuanlin, and when she saw that he didn't resist, she felt relieved. She reached out to hold his shoulders and turned him to face her.
Shen Yuanlin's eyes were vacant and lifeless at this time, and the scratched wound on his ear had not yet scabbed over.
He had scratched too hard just now, and the wound was quite deep, and the bloody look was a bit scary.
If it had been in the past, whenever Shen Yuanlin broke his skin, Mrs. Xu would have ordered a whole room of people around, but now she could only look at his wounds and shed tears.
Mrs. Xu asked in a low voice: "Lin'er, does it hurt? It won't hurt if I give you a snort, okay?"
Shen Yuanlin didn't react at all to her words. He stared at the ground and didn't know what he was thinking.
After staying up until dark in such an awkward and stalemate atmosphere, Mrs. Xu thought she could finally go back to the back house, but Mrs. Shen still sat there unmoved.
Aunt Jiang stepped forward and lit the oil lamp in the room, then returned to stand next to Mrs. Shen.
Mrs. Xu glanced at Old Mrs. Shen and saw that although she had her eyes closed and was motionless,
This continued for another two hours, and it was not until the time when the lights in Shen's house were turned off and the keys were turned off that Old Mrs. Shen finally opened her eyes.
"Let's go!"
Mrs. Xu thought she was going back to the back house, and she was still thinking about giving Shen Yuanlin some medicine. She was scratching so hard that she didn't know if there would be scars in the future.
But when she pulled Shen Yuanlin out of the courtyard, she saw a mule cart already parked at the door.
"Get in the car!"
Before Mrs. Shen finished speaking, two rough ladies came up and put Mrs. Xu and Shen Yuanlin into the car.
Mrs. Xu didn't expect that Mrs. Shen couldn't even wait for such a while and actually wanted to send them out of the house immediately.
She held the car door open and tried to fight for it again: "Old lady, you can at least let me go back and pack some clothes..."
Shen Yuanlin, who was pushed into the carriage first, suddenly pulled her arm hard.
"how……"
Mrs. Xu turned around to ask, but stopped abruptly in the middle of her words. She stared at the car, unable to believe her eyes.
