"But my situation is completely different from what you said! What should I do if my mother really intervenes and something unexpected happens?" Shen Xiujin asked worriedly.
When Shen Xiuyan heard this, he hesitated for a moment, but still said with a lack of confidence:
"This... maybe it's not such a coincidence? Think about it, just like what your sister-in-law and her family went through, didn't your mother intervene? Not only did everything go well, but your mother's health actually improved!
Moreover, if there really is such a thing as the power of plot, we have now avoided the so-called lucky line, and so far, we are all safe and sound, and nothing has happened to us!"
Listening to Shen Xiuyan's words, although he was still a little uneasy, he seemed to think that it made some sense.
After hesitating for a long time, Shen Xiujin gritted his teeth and said with determination: "Okay... then I'll give it a try too?"
So, the two brothers began to discuss seriously in the study how to deal with this matter while Jiang Mianmian naturally knew about it.
After a heated discussion, they finally reached a consensus - only by being honest with each other and telling Jiang Mianmian all the truth without reservation can they solve this difficult problem more smoothly and better.
………………
The next day, Shen Xiuyan left the morning court and when he came to pay his respects to Jiang Mianmian, he talked about what happened yesterday.
"Mother, I want to tell you about what happened last night." Shen Xiuyan took a deep breath and slowly said, "My second brother and I chatted in the study until very late..."
Jiang Mianmian listened to Shen Xiuyan's words quietly. She couldn't help but frowned, and then she sighed silently.
Although she still felt a little angry when she mentioned this, she was more worried about the second child. After all, what happened yesterday really scared her so much that she was still scared.
Alas, although she always said that she didn't care about them, but if she really wanted to ignore them and be indifferent, she probably couldn't do it! If something happened to any of them one day, she would definitely regret it...
In fact, her inner feelings towards Shen Xiuyan, the nominal adopted son, were very complicated. Strictly speaking, Shen Xiuyan was not her biological son, but the eldest son of that bastard.
However, since marrying into the Shen family, she had raised him for so many years, and had invested so much effort and love in him. Gradually, this mother-son bond had grown quietly without her noticing, and it was not easy to give it up easily.
In fact, if Shen Xiujin had not been in an awkward stalemate with me, I might have already given up my prejudice against him and loved him as my own son.
Speaking of biological sons, we have to talk about the third son, Gu Yunchen. When he was first recognized, that hateful dead man had already turned into a pile of useless scraps.
At that time, Jiang Mianmian was determined to have him return to the family and inherit the title of Marquis. However, unexpectedly, the child rejected her proposal without hesitation.
The reason was simple: he was unwilling to change his surname, let alone return to the Marquisate to recognize his ancestral roots. After all, in his heart, his adoptive father only had him as his son, and he really couldn't bear to hurt his adoptive father's heart.
After hearing this, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help feeling a little lost in her heart, but she finally chose to respect the decision he made.
Later, she figured it out. After all, even if he really changed his surname, it wouldn't be hers. So why would she force it? She might as well just go along with his wishes, and avoid further alienating him from her.
Not only that, after some investigation, Jiang Mianmian found that his adoptive family treated him so well and raised him to be a well-behaved child, so she could not take him away from his adoptive father.
Gu Yunchen was now working in the palace, serving as the commander of the emperor's personal guard. His primary responsibility was to ensure the emperor's personal safety, but she had no idea what specific tasks the emperor had assigned him.
Unfortunately, even though Gu Yunchen has recognized her, their relationship is not close at all.
well………
At this moment, a figure slowly walked in. Jiang Mianmian looked up and saw that it was Shen Xiujin who walked in. In an instant, her face turned cold again.
Seeing this, Shen Xiuyan, who was standing by, hurried out to smooth things over, saying with a smile on his face, "Mother, my second brother has something in his heart that he wants to tell you. Why don't you just be patient and listen to what he wants to say?"
Shen Xiuyan winked at Shen Xiujin, then smiled at Jiang Mianmian and said, "Oh my! Look at my memory, mother, second brother, you two can chat slowly. I came back today, but I haven't gone back to see Le'an yet?
I have to go help Tingxue look after Le'an, so I'll be back first. If there's anything you need help with, just send someone to call me!" After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry.
Jiang Mianmian looked at Shen Xiuyan's back and snorted coldly, but she still had that stern face and said coldly: "Okay, stop dawdling, just tell me what you want to tell me quickly, I have something else to do later!"
However, what no one expected was that Shen Xiujin actually knelt down with a plop. This sudden action really scared Jiang Mianmian.
It also scared the maids and servants inside and outside the room. Cuiyu was very considerate and quickly led everyone in the room back out the door. She knew that what was going to happen next was not something that the servants could hear.
