She said it pitifully. If it were normal times, the old lady would have softened her heart a long time ago, but this matter is related to the life and death of the entire Chu family. Even if the old lady can't bear it, she can only be cruel: "
You obediently listen to grandma's words, as long as you take the drug that will make you unconscious beforehand, and then pretend to fall from the tree, even if the emperor asks, our Chu family will have an explanation."
Hearing that it was just like this and that he didn't have to suffer too much physical pain, Chu Yan was relieved and a smile appeared on his face, "Mom is still thoughtful, I thought..."
"You think I would be so cruel as to attack my granddaughter, who is worse than a ferocious beast?" the old lady said angrily.
Chu Yan laughed twice and scratched his head awkwardly.
Chu Ying knelt on the ground and listened to their conversation with her ears pricked up. Knowing that even Chu Yan had agreed to this matter, she must have no room for maneuver, so she quickly sniffed and put on a fearful but obedient look.
With a gesture of her own, she promised: "As long as it can make grandma feel at ease, Ying'er is willing to do anything."
Although the old lady was talking to Chu Yan, she kept looking at Chu Ying from the corner of her eye. All the changes in her expressions were reflected in her eyes, which made her extremely disappointed and made her even more convinced that this granddaughter was a scourge.
"If you are willing, then this matter should not be delayed." The old lady looked around at everyone present and quickly made a decision: "Let Agui's wife handle it, so that the people in our eldest house will not be upset."
"Ah?" Cao Yingchun was called by name unexpectedly, and immediately shrank his neck, "Isn't this...not good?"
Although she had always approved of the old lady's handling of Chu Ying, once this matter fell on her head, wouldn't Aunt Liu hate her to death?
She is too lazy to wade into this muddy water!
The old lady saw her reluctance and said funnyly: "Weren't you quite positive just now? Why do you push back and block everything when you start to do something?"
"I'm not pushing back and forth..." Cao Yingchun argued: "It's just that you can't bear it, I can't bear it too! I also have a daughter, how can I bear to do such a thing?"
"You don't need to say so much." The old lady said coldly: "Whether you can bear it or not, this matter will be left to you. You must finish it for me before dark."
"What?!" Cao Yingchun's eyes widened, "Why are you so anxious?"
"There's no rush." Chu Run said calmly: "The Emperor's summons can happen at any time. We might be summoned before dark, so naturally the sooner the better."
Seeing him making sarcastic remarks, Cao Yingchun was so angry that she couldn't help but said: "Your second wife has the most experience in this kind of thing, why don't you do it?"
"That's no need?" Yu Atu quickly stood up to protect Chu Run, "Arun is a scholar, how can he do such a thing? Third aunt, you are the most suitable."
Cao Yingchun's face became increasingly ugly, "What is the most suitable thing for me? How did you say that?!"
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, the old lady interrupted them impatiently, "Okay, okay, this matter has been decided. Yingchun, you won't even be able to control me, right?"
Cao Yingchun was speechless and could only lower her head and agree, "Yes, mother, I'll just do it."
The matter was decided, and Cao Yingchun quickly led Chu Ying away from the scene. In order to avoid an accident and to ensure that Chu Ying drank the medicine, the old lady asked Chu Yan, the father, to keep an eye on him in person. He was always a member of the Chu family
As the head of the family, he still has some sense of proportion and will not deliberately take sides just to protect his daughter.
After they left, Chu Gui also said goodbye quickly. Only Chu Run, Chu Xiu and other juniors were left in the house, as well as the sisters-in-law from the Spring Equinox, who looked very harmonious.
The old lady looked around them and said calmly: "Everyone of you should learn to do something like this today. If you encounter similar situations in the future, you must not be lenient."
Seeing her telling them what happened after her death, everyone felt sour in their hearts. Shi Chunfen quickly said: "Grandma, please don't worry, the Chu family will definitely be in peace after this time, and similar things will never happen again."
.”
"Yes." Ji Xiaoman agreed, "When we return to Liuzhou, we can slowly learn from grandma."
The old lady looked at their smiling faces, but the smile on her lips was a little bitter, "I'm afraid I'm getting old and can't stand the two months of running around anymore."
It was tiring enough to go from Liuzhou to the capital, and she had to go back the same way. Even if the Chu family was lucky enough to survive this time, she felt that she would not be able to make it back to Liuzhou.
Hearing what she said, everyone's expressions changed, and even Chu Xiu, who had always been indifferent, couldn't help but said: "It's okay, grandma, you live a long life, and you have to watch the birth of your eldest brother's child, how can anything happen?
"
When Chu Ling's child was mentioned, the old lady's eyes fell on Shi Chunfen's belly. It had only been three months now, and Shi Chunfen's belly was not even pregnant.
Seeing her gaze, Shi Chunfen immediately took the initiative to move closer, took her hand and felt her abdomen, "It has been three months, my belly is getting more and more swollen, and the baby is getting bigger and bigger."
The old lady caressed her abdomen. Although the appearance was not obvious, she could clearly feel the swelling in her abdomen. This was her great-grandson, the son of her favorite grandson Chu Ling.
.
"For the sake of this child, I will definitely take good care of my body." The old lady said with emotion: "If I can live until the child is born, I will have no regrets in this life."
Shi Chunfen's nose felt sour, and his eyes instantly turned red, "It will definitely be possible, grandma, you will definitely be able to see it."
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room suddenly became sad, Ji Xiaoman looked at Chu Xiu and couldn't help but said: "Not only can I see the birth of my eldest brother's son, but if you live a long life, grandma, you will also be able to see the birth of my and Axiu's son.
Isn’t that right, Ah Xiu?”
Chu Xiu was caught off guard by her name. Under the old lady's eager eyes, he finally nodded stiffly, "Yes, grandma, you still want to see my and Xiaoman's child born."
The old lady has lived to this age, how could she not see Ji Xiaoman's tricks, but her tricks were exactly what she wanted, so she cooperated and said, "Don't just talk about it, the Chu family has experienced everything along the way.
After so many ups and downs, it’s time for you to learn to make progress. Let the past things be wiped out. In the future, you can’t hang around Gou Lan every night, lest others laugh at you.”
Chu Xiu's expression became stiffer, but he still nodded with difficulty and promised: "Don't worry, grandma, I just promise you."
