Chapter 80 The wicked must be dealt with by the wicked.
Old Master Shan's face turned bright red: "..."
In all my years, I have never seen such a shameless person!
For a mere moment of stunned silence, the Fourth Madam puffed out her chest, coquettishly pressed her arm against Old Master Shan's, and softly parted her lips: "Master..."
Old Master Shan froze, as if struck by lightning, and reflexively swung his hand, sending the Fourth Madam flying.
"You shameless harlot! She has no sense of shame whatsoever! Guards, forbid her from setting foot in the Fourth Prince's residence again. If she dares to do it again, report her to the authorities immediately!" Old Master Shan was so angry that his eyes turned red, as if he was about to breathe fire.
nausea!
Disgusting!
This woman is absolutely disgusting!
That's so damn disgusting!
He helped the Fourth Master into the room and was about to give him a pill to help him recover when the Fourth Master grasped his hand and said in a weak voice, "Don't waste it, I was just pretending."
He really didn't know how to face that shameless fourth wife, so he decided to pretend to faint.
Having learned his lesson today, he now fully understands his great-grandmother's good intentions.
He had originally intended to make the mother and son regret their actions, but now that he'd discovered they were a scoundrel, he was more than happy to see himself in dire straits.
As the saying goes, once someone has money, thieves will covet it. If he loses his money and falls on hard times, then the mother and son will probably stop worrying about him all the time.
"Pretending? What are you afraid of her for? If I were you, I'd kill her." Old Master Shan cursed with disgust.
This kind of woman should be drowned in a pig cage as a warning to others!
"I..." The Fourth Master's lips moved. Thinking of what Old Master Shan had said, he felt that it made a lot of sense. Yes, why should he be afraid?
She's the one who clearly did something wrong, so how dare she swagger around like this?
"But... Grandma said that family scandals should not be aired in public," the Fourth Master said tremblingly.
Seeing his expression, Old Master Shan was somewhat exasperated: "Grandma also said that we must not be bullied!"
"Those who are descendants of virtuous families should not be bullied!"
"If you are really bullied, just fight back. If anything happens, Grandma will take responsibility!"
Back in the day, his father even dared to beat up the emperor's son, so what could the emperor say? In the end, wasn't it his grandmother who stepped in to settle things?
His father didn't even have to say sorry, and that little emperor didn't dare to utter a single word!
In short, as long as Grandma is around, there's no reason to be bullied without fighting back!
"That seems to make sense." The Fourth Master thought about it for a moment, pondered it, and then felt that Old Master Shan was right.
"You're just too timid, you've been like this since you were little." Old Master Shan shook his head helplessly.
He grew up with the fourth brother, and he knew the fourth brother's personality all too well; he was not only afraid of his wife, but also afraid of outsiders.
"Then...then elder brother, can you help me deal with this? I...I dare not see her, and I don't want to see her." The fourth master looked aggrieved.
Old Master Shan: "..."
Is it too late for him to take back what he said?
Who would dare to mess with the fourth son's wife?
But he had already agreed, so what could he do? He had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.
Upon leaving the fourth prince's residence, the old master immediately ordered someone to report to the authorities. He also arranged for two servants to stand guard at the gate, ready to notify the authorities should the fourth wife cause trouble.
Upon returning to his residence, the old master Shan did not delay for a moment and immediately reported the matter to his grandmother, Shanxi, in detail.
Upon hearing his arrangement, Shanxi gave him a cold glance and said indifferently, "Evil people need other evil people to teach them a lesson."
"Lin's Auction House is on the verge of bankruptcy."
"I heard that Madam Lin is currently having marital problems with the head of the Lin family and they are getting a divorce."
"Take some gifts and visit her. I believe Mrs. Lin will be happy to help you clean up this mess."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Shan's eyes lit up immediately: "What a great idea!"
The wicked need another wicked to torment them. Madam Lin hated Fourth Madam so much that she wanted to tear her skin off if she saw her.
The Lin family is going through a difficult time. If I send some more things to Madam Lin to help her out of her financial crisis, wouldn't Madam Lin be even more eager to help?
Thinking of this, Old Master Shan dared not delay in the slightest and hurriedly turned around to prepare gifts.
Watching Old Master Shan's departing figure, Old Master Chen couldn't help but shake his head: "Shouldn't it be the body that gets younger? How come it feels like his brain has become new too?"
Such a simple matter, why do I need to ask Miss for permission?
Shanxi didn't mind at all that Grandpa Shan came to ask for advice on how to handle the problem. After all, he was just a child, and it was only right for him to ask his great-grandmother for advice when he encountered a difficult problem.
"Men are like that, it's normal that they don't think about these complicated things." Shanxi took a sip of the fragrant tea beside him.
"By the way, are there any suitable candidates among the collateral branches of the Shan family?" Shanxi asked curiously, putting down his teacup.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Chen paused slightly in his tea-making, his brows furrowing: "Why is Miss in such a hurry this time?"
Miss has only been back for a short time, is she about to leave again?
"This early awakening has taken a toll on my energy, and I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for much longer." Shanxi pursed her lips, her gaze falling on the reflection in the tea, lost in deep thought.
The reason she gave Xiaohuanghua the Youth Preservation Pill was that she hoped Xiaohuanghua could hold on for a while longer until she had arranged everything.
But if you do the math, the little yellow flower probably won't last more than a hundred years.
She had to choose a suitable successor for Xiaohuanghua while she was still lucid, to ensure that the Shan family would have a successor!
Upon hearing this, Old Master Chen felt a pang of pain in his heart: "Miss..."
He didn't even have time to properly serve Miss, so why is she leaving?
"Keep this youth-preserving pill. You've been with me for so long, and I haven't been able to leave you anything good," Shanxi said, handing the youth-preserving pill to Old Master Chen.
Old Master Chen's pupils dilated instantly. He took the Youth Preservation Pill, his hands trembling slightly. "This... Miss has already given me so much. Your words make me feel ashamed."
Being able to learn from the young lady is a blessing he has accumulated over many lifetimes.
How could he possibly ask the young lady for anything else?
"Although the Youth-Preserving Pill can restore youth in the short term, these decades, though seemingly long, have passed in the blink of an eye for me. I hope you will not take it, it would be better if you did not take it," Shanxi said with some emotion, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.
She has lived for over a thousand years and has seen too many people regret taking the youth-preserving pill.
They are used to their youthful bodies, and when they suddenly age rapidly, they often cannot accept this reality, and some even choose to hang themselves because of it.
She didn't want Xiaohuanghua and Xiaochen to follow the same path, and hoped they could face the passage of time with equanimity.
Old Master Chen frowned in confusion, but having served Miss Chen for many years, he knew her temperament well.
The young lady wouldn't have given him such a serious instruction unless there were some unbearable, serious consequences.
"Thank you for the reminder, Miss. I will keep it in mind." Old Master Chen solemnly put away the pill, his heart filled with gratitude.
