"Because this matter concerns the future of my husband and father-in-law, my granddaughter-in-law must go and handle it personally." A firm look appeared in Yang Zhao's eyes.
"But didn't you ask Xia Ying to take care of it? Why did you go out by yourself?" Old Madam Shen was puzzled.
Showing up in public is bad for the Shen family's reputation! !
Yang Zhao hesitated for a moment before lowering her voice slightly and saying, "Grandma, there's something I haven't had time to report to you yet.

But it hurt her Lan'er——
Madam Shen was immediately furious, a vicious look flashing in her eyes: "Okay! Okay! Since they are so shameless, don't blame me for being cruel!"
