When Shen Li looked at Yang Zhao, Yang Zhao also looked at him.
Um!
Compared to the pretending to be weak when he came back from his previous life, Shen Li now looked truly weak and embarrassed.
As for Wei Yaer.
Yang Zhao just glanced at her lightly and then looked away, as if he really regarded her as an insignificant servant.
She bowed slightly to Madam Shen and said gently, "Madam, my husband needs to rest and recuperate. I can't help much. I will go take care of the house affairs first and come back to serve my husband later."
"Go ahead."
Old Madam Shen didn't keep her either.
She had to stay and find out the situation, and also deal with the problem of that little slave.
"By the way, your father-in-law, you don't need to go there for the time being. Your mother-in-law and the others are guarding it."
"yes."
After Yang Zhao left, Madam Shen asked Nanny Liu to guard the door.
"grandmother!"
Shen Li wanted to struggle to get up, but he pulled the wound and broke out in a cold sweat. Mrs. Shen was immediately distressed: "Okay, you are covered in wounds now, don't torture yourself anymore."
"Meet the old lady."
At this time, Wei Yaer also imitated Yang Zhao and bowed to Old Madam Shen, but her posture was not quite right and her manners were not good either, giving her a feeling of imitating someone else's.
Old Madam Shen frowned, a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes, and she ignored her with a cold face.
Wei Yaer froze there.
Still, Shen Li couldn't bear to see her suffer such an injustice, and said, "Grandma, if it weren't for Ya'er this time, my grandson would not be able to live to come back to see you."
Madam Shen felt that Shen Li was deliberately praising her, a little slave. Even if Doctor Li said that she knew some medical skills, it was probably just the barefoot medical skills of the countryside, which was not worth looking at.
But Shen Li is the grandson she relies on the most and the one she values the most.
Seeing him defending her so much, the old lady could only suppress her displeasure and said coldly, "Doctor Li asked you to help take care of Li'er, so you should take good care of him and don't forget your status."
This means that she can only be a slave.
Wei Yaer's face changed slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes for a moment, but she quickly lowered her head and said in a low and aggrieved voice, "I know."
Old Madam Shen frowned, truly disdaining her petty appearance, and reprimanded her coldly, "From now on, you must call yourself a slave in front of your master. How can you call yourself "I, I, I"? You really have no manners at all."
Wei Yaer bit her lip, tears falling like beads from a broken string...
Shen Li frowned and looked at Old Madam Shen: "Grandma, Ya'er gave birth to Xuan'er for me after all. She is Xuan'er's biological mother. Moreover, she is my grandson's savior!"
Let Xuan'er's biological mother become a slave. How will Xuan'er cope with the future?
"If it weren't for Brother Xuan, do you think she could have stepped into the gate of my Shen family so easily?"
Old Madam Shen said in a deep voice, "Li'er, you must know that you are a son of our Shen family. We Shen family sons don't have the custom of keeping concubines, not to mention that you have a concubine's child before your wife has any children!"
"If this matter were to become known to others, our Shen family's century-old reputation would be ruined."
"Also, Xuan Ge'er was born after His Majesty punished the Shen family. He should have been branded as a sinner, but you helped him avoid it. So he can no longer reveal himself to the world as a child of the Shen family. Otherwise, he would be disobeying His Majesty's order and would bring harm to our Shen family."
Shen Li was silent.
"But, but he is the blood of the Shen family? This is a fact that no one can change." Wei Yaer spoke anxiously.
Her son is her bottom line.
She would never allow her son to not get what he deserved. Otherwise, why did she work so hard? Wasn't it for his future?
"Brother Shen, I can be a slave, but, but our Brother Xuan must become a member of the Shen family. He is your son, he is so smart, and he is so talented in studying. He will definitely bring honor to the Shen family in the future..."
Wei Yaer cried sadly.
Shen Li thought of Xuan Ge'er's intelligence: "Grandma..."
Old Madam Shen really hated people like Wei Yaer, who cried all the time and had no manners at all, and whose status was as low as mud.
But her grandson likes her now, and she is Xuan'er's biological mother, so the old lady can only suppress her displeasure and say: "I will let Yang Zhao adopt Xuan'er under her name. Then he will be the eldest son of the eldest branch of our Shen family, and he will not be wronged."
Wei Yaer stopped crying and her eyes brightened.
Madam Shen warned her: "Before things are settled, you should remember your status as a slave. Don't dream of anything more, and don't even think about contacting Xuan'er. If you arouse the mistress's suspicion and ruin things, I will not forgive you."
The old lady's eyes were cold and threatening.
Wei Yaer shuddered and subconsciously lowered her head and said, "Yes, I remember this."
Seeing that the beating was almost over, Old Lady Shen changed the subject again:
"Li'er, tell me, what happened? How did you come back so badly injured? Didn't you say you were escorted back by the Yang family army? And why did you come back two days late?"
Mr. Shen seemed to be frightened. The old lady asked him for a long time, but he didn't explain the whole story clearly. Instead, he was annoyed by his useless daughter-in-law's crying.
This is also the reason why she asked Yang Zhao not to go there for the time being.
Shen Li knew his father's temperament well, and understood what Old Madam Shen wanted to ask. He opened his dry lips, forced himself to stay awake, and slowly said:
"We were about to reach the capital, but the Yang family soldiers who were escorting us back were unable to enter the capital due to their special status, so most of them left halfway, leaving only a dozen or so soldiers to escort us on our way. Unexpectedly, we encountered bandits along the way..."
