"Madam, the master is back."
"The master and the others are back..."
In the Muzhai courtyard, a maid shouted with joy in a trembling voice, and rushed into the house to report without caring about the rules.
"Are you back?"
Old Madam Shen couldn't help but raise her voice in joy, and even grasped Aunt Liu tightly with both hands in excitement, her face full of joy. "Quick, quickly, have someone open all the gates to the front yard, open the main gate, and have the stewards of the front yard bring people to welcome the master and his family home."
"yes."
The old woman took the order and hurried out.
Old Madam Shen was so happy that she couldn't hide her joy. She thought of something and hurriedly ordered, "Madame Liu, hurry up and help me dress. I want to go and bring my son and grandson home myself."
"Oh right, have someone notify the East and West Courtyards, and then notify the Second, Third, and Fourth Courtyards. Have them all get ready and come with me to the gate to welcome us."
"And... let Qinyuan know as well." When the old lady mentioned Qinyuan, her eyes became noticeably colder.
"Yes, I will arrange it right away."
Qinyuan.
After the maid who informed her left, Xia Ying said with a happy expression, "Madam, the son-in-law is finally back. With the son-in-law here, you won't have to work so hard anymore."
Dong Shuang glanced at Xia Ying and said, "With the return of the son-in-law, Madam will probably have a harder time. If you have nothing to do, please don't talk about this in front of Madam."
"Why?"
Xia Ying didn't understand. She had been recuperating from her injuries these days, and Dong Shuang hadn't told her about Xuan Ge'er. She naturally didn't know the relationship between Chen Li and Xuan Ge'er, so she said these words.
Dong Shuang didn't explain either.
Yang Zhao was sitting in front of a bronze mirror at this time, looking at himself in the mirror. His face was still a little pale, but it could not hide his elegance and beauty. He was dazed for a moment. After all, he hadn't seen himself look so young in many years.
As for the conversation between Xia Ying and Dong Shuang, she didn't pay much attention to it, and she wasn't even in a hurry to go to the front yard. Instead, she stared at herself in the bronze mirror for a long time before she curled her lips and said, "Dong Shuang, help me with my makeup."
This day.
The door of the Shen family, which had been closed for six years, was finally opened to the public, which immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Why is the Shen family's door open?"
"I heard that the men of the Shen family have returned..."
Old Madam Shen personally led a group of female relatives and stood in front of the open gate of the Shen family. The maids blocked the perimeter, but the onlookers could still see the beautiful women on the steps...
The most eye-catching person among them was the woman leading the first row behind Old Madam Shen.
She was wearing a plain jacket and skirt, and a snow-white fox fur cloak, which made her already pale face look even whiter than snow. Her eyes were like a pool of clear water, and when she looked around, she had an elegant and noble temperament. She was so beautiful that people could not take their eyes off her, but at the same time, people dared not look at her too much.
"Excuse me, benefactor, among those female members of the Shen family, which one is the wife of the Shen family who fell into the water a few days ago?" A soft and gentle voice sounded from the crowd, and it was seen that it was a little monk wearing an old cassock.
He doesn't look very old, maybe twelve or thirteen at most.
But when he asked that question, he immediately attracted a lot of people's attention. "You little monk, why don't you stay in the temple and recite scriptures, and come here to ask about someone's wife who fell into the water?"
"That's right, how can a monk like you be so impure..."
The young monk Ayou blushed with embarrassment, but looking at the group of women in front of the Shen family's gate, he couldn't help scratching his bald head in worry and muttered, "I just wanted to treat the lady who fell into the water..."
He had tried every possible method these days, but he couldn't even get into the outermost threshold of the Shen family, let alone treat the lady who fell into the water. He didn't dare go back until he completed the task assigned by his master.
"Here it comes..."
At this time, someone in the crowd shouted.
Next, everyone saw a series of carts appear on the street.
The carts were very simple, some even quite old. And on each one were people lying, except for the first few who were lying alone, the rest were more or less stacked side by side, all with injuries ranging from major to minor, wrapped in gauze...
Madam Shen and others were full of anticipation.
But when she saw the condition of the male member of the Shen family who was pushed back on the cart, she was almost frightened to death.
"My son—"
After a flurry of activity, the men of the Shen family finally entered the mansion.
On this day, all the doctors from the medical clinics in Beijing were invited to the Shen family.
"Doctor Li, what's going on? Is my grandson okay?"
In the Linzhu Courtyard, when Mrs. Shen saw Doctor Li coming out, she immediately stood up from her stool and asked.
The master has already asked Doctor Li to take a look.
Doctor Li wiped the sweat from his forehead before bowing to the old lady. "Old lady, I have done my best. Mr. Shen's legs...although they have been saved, I'm afraid he will have difficulty standing up again. As for the injuries on his hands and body, they have been treated well before and are not serious."
Is it hard to stand up again?
Old Madam Shen felt as if she couldn't breathe and her body swayed. If it weren't for Madam Liu's quick eyes and hands to support her, she would have fallen to the ground. She said in a trembling voice, "Doctor Li, is there no other way?"
Doctor Li sighed and shook his head; "I really can't do anything."
At this point, Doctor Li glanced back at the woman who was standing by the bed in the middle room with her eyebrows lowered. Thinking of what she had just said, Doctor Li said something extra:
"Old Madam, Mr. Shen's injuries still need careful care. The girl inside should know some medical skills. I heard that she treated Mr. Shen's injuries first. Maybe we can ask her to help take care of him from now on."
