Chapter 925 The situation is not very good (1 more)
I have to say that Shen Zhonglei chose to come over to see Shen Tianshu first instead of seeing Mrs. Shen, which made Li Zian feel a little more comfortable.
So he let Shen Zhonglei stand there in a daze without disturbing him.
Unexpectedly, Shen Tianshu suddenly woke up at this time.
"Water..." she murmured softly.
As soon as Shen Zhonglei heard Shen Tianshu's hoarse and dry voice, his heart suddenly tightened.
He didn't care about anything else and stepped forward quickly to pour water for Shen Tianshu.
Unexpectedly, Li Zian moved faster and had already poured a glass of warm water.
This time he didn't dare to let Shen Tianshu lie down and drink. He helped her up and put the cup close to her lips.
Seeing the slightly intimate movements between the two, Shen Zhonglei's eyelids were twitching wildly.
But when I saw my daughter's burnt, white and chapped lips, I was filled with worry and heartache.
"Is the fever so severe? Why does your voice sound like this?"
Li Zi'an answered for Shen Tianshu: "The reason why my throat is like this is because of the fever, and secondly, it's because I'm choking on the cigarette. I'm afraid I need to give birth and recuperate for a while."
Shen Tianshu was still in a daze at this time, and he couldn't even tell whether he was awake or still in a dream.
She drank the water with Li Zian's hand and was about to lie down when she suddenly turned her head to look at Shen Zhonglei in hindsight.
"father……"
Didn’t it mean that Shen Zhonglei was still on his way here?
Did he sleep for a long time again?
Shen Tianshu became inexplicably panicked.
Li Zian put the cup aside, reached out and patted her back, and then said: "Master Shen just arrived not long ago. He heard that you were injured and came to see you quickly.
"You go on to sleep for a while. I'll ask Ming Yuji to keep an eye on you. I'll accompany Mr. Shen to see Mrs. Shen."
Shen Tianshu was stuffed back into the quilt by Li Zi'an in a daze, and then watched him and Shen Zhonglei walk out of the room.
After a while, Mingyu opened the door and came in.
"Girl, are you awake?" Mingyu said, stepped forward and put a rattle into her hand and said, "If you have any instructions, just shake the rattle, and the slave will hear it.
"The doctor asked you to talk as little as possible recently and take good care of yourself, otherwise it will easily lead to the root cause of the disease.
"Whether the voice can be restored is still a trivial matter. If it is not maintained well, it will be fatal to have to cough from time to time in the future."
As soon as Mingyu came in, he kept talking and chattered a lot.
Shen Tianshu opened his mouth several times, but failed to get anything in, and finally gave up.
She thought to herself that since Li Zian made such an arrangement, he must have his reasons and let him handle it.
Seeing that she was not going to talk anymore, Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief, twisted a handkerchief and wiped her face, and then whispered: "Young lady doesn't even know that after the accident, when the prince came back overnight, That look on his face was beyond scary.
"Fortunately, there is nothing serious about you, otherwise I would have set Tian'en Temple on fire."
Although it was just a casual chat between master and servant, Tianen Temple was built on the order of Emperor Taizu.
Not to mention Li Zian, even the current emperor would not dare to say that he would burn down Tian'en Temple.
Seeing Shen Tianshu's serious expression, Mingyu stuck out his tongue and said, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this. You have been having a fever for so long, and the prince has been standing by your side, fully clothed, and has not left even half a step.
"My servants are all moved when they see her. The prince really cares about the girl."
Listening to Mingyu whispering in his ears, Shen Tianshu gradually relaxed and fell asleep again without realizing it.
Here, Shen Zhonglei looked confused after following Li Zian out of the back room.
He wanted to ask about the relationship between Li Zian and Shen Tianshu, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.
Li Zian naturally knew what he was struggling with, and said seriously: "Master Shen, my wife and I are very happy with each other, but we have always been more in love than in courtesy.
"Originally I didn't intend to hide it from Mr. Shen, but Miss Shen had a filial piety before and it was inconvenient to open her mouth.
"After removing my filial piety, I have been thinking that I should find a suitable time to formally mention this matter to Mr. Shen.
"Who knew that such a big thing would happen before I even found the opportunity.
"But please rest assured, Mr. Shen, my grandmother and mother also like Miss Shen very much. After I perform the coronation ceremony, I will officially come to propose marriage."
"Thank you to the Dowager Empress and the Royal Concubine for your love..."
Shen Zhonglei subconsciously bowed and replied, but after finishing speaking, he realized that it seemed inappropriate to say this at this time.
Although he couldn't find anything wrong with Li Zian's attitude, but...
But in this case, it makes sense why the palace always comes to invite Shen Tianshu to come over every now and then.
Thinking that Li Zian had used Princess Danyang as a shield before, Shen Zhonglei didn't know what to say.
If my daughter really marries into the palace, in order to avoid suspicion, will I not be able to continue to be an official in Wuchang Palace?
If he really becomes a son-in-law with Prince Rui's Mansion, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to become an official in the court.
But he didn't have that much ambition in the first place. He had been working hard for it before just because it was Mrs. Shen's vision.
In fact, for him, being an official to his parents and keeping the people safe and happy is quite satisfying.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhonglei suddenly thought that Li Zian had brought him out just now to see Mrs. Shen.
What a coincidence, Li Zian saw that he didn't speak for a long time, so he also reminded him: "Don't Master Shen want to see Mrs. Shen?"
"Yes..." Shen Zhonglei was in a daze for a moment, "Suddenly I heard that the prince and my daughter... I didn't react for a while."
If it had been in the past, he would have rushed over to check on Mrs. Shen as soon as he arrived at Tian'en Temple.
But now, there is still some hesitation.
After learning about what Old Mrs. Shen had done back then, he had been avoiding her and even refused to hear anything about Old Mrs. Shen.
So when Mrs. Shen said she was coming to Tian'en Temple, Shen Zhonglei even secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Not to mention stopping her, he wished she could just live here for a year and a half and not go back.
At least you can give him some more time to think clearly about what kind of mentality he should use to face such a biological mother in the future.
Who would have thought that just a few days later, such a big thing would happen, forcing him to collect his thoughts and face Old Mrs. Shen again.
Just when Shen Zhonglei was feeling overwhelmed, Li Zian said from the side: "Master Shen, although Mrs. Shen's life is not in danger, the situation is not very good. Before you go in, you'd better be mentally prepared."
After hearing this, Shen Zhonglei thought that he would be a little worried anyway.
Unexpectedly, the first thought that came to my mind was - her most beloved son died. It's strange that her condition is better now.
But no matter what, Mrs. Shen is his biological mother.
No matter what, he had to go and see how she was doing.
Shen Zhonglei opened the door of the west room, and the room was very quiet.
Aunt Liu heard the noise and came out of the inner room. When she saw that the person who came was Shen Zhonglei, she immediately burst into tears.
Her eyes were already red and swollen, showing that she had cried countless times.
"Master, you are here, the old lady..."
But Shen Zhonglei didn't wait for her to finish her words, then waved his hand and said: "You go out first, I'll go see my mother."
"But Master..." Grandma Liu was startled and wanted to say something else.
However, Shen Zhonglei's face sank and he said sternly: "Why, my words are not good for you, right?"
Grandma Liu had never seen Shen Zhonglei like this before, and she was so frightened by him that she held back her tears.
You know, from the time he was in his hometown, Shen Zhonglei was a well-known filial son.
She always answered Mrs. Shen's requests without saying a word, and she also respected the elderly people in her room very much. She would always call her "mammy" when she spoke, and she would never act like a master.
However, Nanny Liu quickly attributed the incident to such a big event happening suddenly. Shen Zhonglei couldn't accept it for a while, so he lost his temper at herself.
"Old slave, please step back first. If my second grandpa has any orders, please call me."
After Nanny Liu left, Shen Zhonglei also felt a little confused.
Normally, Mrs. Shen would have scolded her for her attitude, but there was no response today?
Did he fall asleep?
Shen Zhonglei walked towards the inner room step by step, and then stopped in front of the bed.
The bed curtain blocked his sight. He raised his hand, but never had the courage to lift it.
It wasn't until some strange noises came from the bed that Shen Zhonglei finally gritted his teeth and raised his hand to open the curtain.
As soon as he saw Mrs. Shen lying on the bed, Shen Zhonglei was stunned.
I saw Old Mrs. Shen lying on the bed, her mouth tilted, and her eyes looking at Shen Zhonglei very complicated.
"Ah - ah -"
Old Mrs. Shen tried desperately to speak, but she could only make a sound of "Ahhhhhhh", and drool was uncontrollably drooling from the corner of her mouth.
At this time, Shen Zhonglei discovered that Mrs. Shen not only had a crooked mouth and eyes, but also seemed to be unable to control her body.
Drool flowed down the corner of her mouth and dripped on the pillow, but she couldn't even raise her hand to wipe it.
For Mrs. Shen, who usually pays the most attention to appearance and etiquette, letting her son see her in such an ugly state is simply more uncomfortable than letting her die.
But suddenly seeing the usually aloof Mrs. Shen turned into this, Shen Zhonglei couldn't recover for a while.
Mrs. Shen, this is...
Having a stroke?
"Mother." Shen Zhonglei called out with a complicated mood, and then sat on the embroidered pier beside the bed, "I'm already here, and you can leave all the rest to me.
"You're like this now, so don't think too much and just take care of yourself!"
But Old Mrs. Shen was still trying to say something. She raised her only movable arm tremblingly, but it still kept shaking.
"What does mother want to say?" Shen Zhonglei frowned, thinking that everyone was already like this, why should he still teach himself how to do things?
Just listen to Old Mrs. Shen say with great effort: "Ni, Ni..."
