Li Chaoyun was worried that she wouldn't be able to speak and would ruin things, so he instructed her, "After you go, please mention the two daughters left behind by the Crown Princess. Only with the care of her aunt, the Third Miss, can the Crown Princess rest in peace. The old lady is very kind-hearted. If you say so, she might agree."
"This is all for my cousin's future. Aunt, please speak softly and be more humble tomorrow."
Princess Rong nodded and said, "I understand all this, don't worry."
Li Chaoyun wasn't entirely reassured, but she could only offer a few words of advice. She told him to wait until Princess Rong arrived at the mansion tomorrow, then go to Qingyuan Residence to persuade the old lady.
Shortly after Li Chaoyun returned to the Shen family, the Rong family brought the coffin to the Shen family to take back Shen Wu's body. They also took the twelve servants who were beaten to death by Su Qingyu back with the coffin.
Although the Shen family did not need to set up a mourning hall, everyone from the master to the servants looked very sad.
After Su Qingyu and Shen Zhixiu persuaded the old lady for a while, they went to the west courtyard to comfort Shen Yue. After Shen Yue heard that her grandmother had learned the news and was in a bad mood, she went to Qingyuan Residence to accompany her in the evening.
Lying in bed at night, Su Qingyu tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
Shen Zhixiu held her in his arms from behind, "What's wrong? You seem uneasy."
Su Qingyu sighed, "Chen Yue was frightened today. I wanted to let her stay in the west courtyard and I would sleep with her. Will she have a nightmare tonight?"
Shen Zhixiu's cool lips pressed against the back of her neck. "Don't worry, there are so many servants in Qingyuanju to take care of us."
Su Qingyu couldn't help but curse, "What bad luck! Last time it was Chen Ying, this time it's Chen Wu. Are these two sisters targeting Chen Yue?"
Thinking of Li Chaoyun in the dark, Su Qingyu felt a little uneasy. Shen Yue was different from her. She didn't know that this inner house was a place where people were eaten without leaving any bones.
"Third Master, I'll ask Shen Yue in the next two days. If she agrees, then we can arrange the marriage with the Song family."
"After the engagement, let her stay with me for a while and I'll teach her how to manage the household."
Shen Zhixiu nodded and said, "I think so too. How about I tell the Loyalty Marquis tomorrow?"
Su Qingyu quickly shook her head, "I'd better ask Shen Yue first. No matter how good Song Hongshen is, he still needs Shen Yue's approval."
