After hearing what Old Lady Shen said, he tried to cheer up and said softly and weakly, "My sister saved me and didn't push me. I missed my mother, so I secretly ran to the back mountain to burn paper for her. I accidentally stepped on empty air, and it was that sister who rushed out to save me."
The words are clear and there is no reduplication of sounds.
After saying that, he pointed at Xia Ying with his intact hand.
"Did you hear that? You're so impulsive. You didn't even wait for Xuan Ge'er to wake up and ask clearly. Instead, you came to A Zhao to make trouble based on a maid's one-sided words. It's really disrespectful." Old Lady Shen scolded Shen Sulan angrily, as if she was very disappointed in him.
Shen Sulan said with a wronged and embarrassed look: "I, I didn't know it would be such a misunderstanding. That girl said it with all her heart, and the doctor also said that Brother Xuan was seriously injured. I came here in a fit of anger."
"You, you! Don't be so foolish again!"
"yes."
Old Madam Shen sat down beside the bed and took Yang Zhao's hand with a loving look on her face. "Ah Zhao, don't blame your aunt. She has a firecracker temper and never thinks before doing anything. Sooner or later, she will suffer the consequences of this."
But not thinking?
Yang Zhao was almost amused.
After the Shen family fell into trouble, Shen Sulan was able to firmly control her husband's family and even earned the reputation of a female Bodhisattva. Could she really be a fool?
"A Zhao, although this is a misunderstanding. But after this incident, grandma also discovered something."
"This Xuan brother is indeed a good boy. Just now, when he woke up and heard the maid say that your aunt came to cause trouble for you, he completely ignored the freezing weather outside and ran barefoot to my yard to kneel down before her. Only then did my grandmother learn of the situation and rush over in time."
Xuan Ge'er was indeed barefoot at this time, and his feet were covered with mud and snow, and were red and swollen from the cold.
Yang Zhao glanced at it and said nothing.
Madam Shen patted the back of her hand gently and began to persuade her: "Grandma knows that you are a good child. After marrying into the Shen family, you are wholeheartedly for our Shen family."
"But your aunt is right. This bastard will eventually have a biological mother. If you really adopt a bastard, no matter how close you are to him, he will never surpass his biological mother."
"My grandmother thinks this Xuan brother is a good boy, a kind and grateful child. Let him be your legitimate son. He will definitely be a filial son in the future."
As she spoke, Old Madam Shen wiped the corners of her eyes, which were not filled with tears, with a handkerchief and sighed, "Back then...after all, it was our Shen family who owed you."
"Don't worry, this child was given to you for adoption with the approval of your grandmother. In the future, no one in our Shen family will say anything bad about you, and we will never allow anyone to mistreat this Xuan brother."
How dare others treat Shen Li's eldest son unfairly?!
Yang Zhao sneered in his heart.
However, this double act was well performed!!
In her previous life, when Shen Sulan proposed adopting Xuan Ge'er, she had agreed directly, so naturally, none of the subsequent events would have happened. She had always followed the "rules" set by the Shen family, and as long as it didn't jeopardize her own interests and comfortable life, she was actually too lazy to care about other matters.
So I never had the chance to see these "live scenes".
But what they absolutely should not do is to use her people to stage this drama.
"grandmother."
Yang Zhao seldom called Madam Shen "Grandma", but usually called her "Old Madam".
"Hey, tell me!"
Old Madam Shen is very kind.
Yang Zhao pulled his hand back from Madam Shen's, put it to his lips and coughed lightly to hide the coldness on his lips: "I still can't agree to adopt this Xuan brother."
"Why?" Old Madam Shen frowned, feeling very dissatisfied.
She used to despise Xuan Ge'er for being stupid, but now Xuan Ge'er speaks fluently and performs well, even to the point of freezing his feet and making them red and swollen. Yet, she still doesn't like him?
Did she notice something?
impossible!
Old Madam Shen quickly dismissed this idea.
After all, no matter how powerful Yang Zhao is, she is just a woman in the inner house. She has rarely gone out in the past two years. Xuan Ge'er's identity is secret and he has made enough backup plans. There is no way she can know Xuan Ge'er's identity.
Shen Sulan also frowned unhappily: "Yeah, why? This Xuan brother is such a good boy, but you keep finding fault with him. I think you are doing it on purpose!"
Yang Zhao looked at Shen Sulan deeply, and suddenly asked: "Aunt, don't you think that this Xuan brother looks too much like you?"
The old man stood still.
Old Madam Shen's heart suddenly trembled.
When Shen Sulan heard this, she said as a matter of course: "It's good that they look alike! This is fate. I chose him for you because I fell in love with this Xuan brother because he looks like Li'er."
Of course Li'er's blood is like his!
Shen Sulan pretended to be sincere and said: "Yang Zhao, it's not that your aunt wants to criticize you, you are just too superficial. It's a good thing that Xuan'er looks like Li'er. When Li'er comes back and sees him, he will definitely like him. For us women, husbands are our heaven. What could be more important than making our husbands happy?"
"It's certainly important for your husband to be happy, but if that happiness is based on disobeying his will, then it's not happiness at all, but a serious crime punishable by death and extermination of the entire family!"
"What?"
Shen Sulan was a little confused.
Old Man Shen frowned subconsciously, feeling that Yang Zhao would say something bad next.
really!
"Grandmother, Aunt, deceiving the emperor is a serious crime, and disobeying his orders is a serious crime punishable by death. This Xuan brother looks too much like you. I suspect he might be a descendant of our Shen family."
"nonsense!"
Old Madam Shen's expression changed and she reacted quite strongly.
