Chapter 626: Making Trouble
Old Madam Liu was very angry. She had prepared a lot of words to scold Liu Shiyu, but now she hadn't even seen the person in question, so who was she going to tell it to?
How could she talk about her nephew's marriage if no one was listening?
"Okay, stop arguing." Liu Zhicheng finally spoke.
Madam Liu wants to see if the head of the family can withstand his mother's troubles.
Liu Zhicheng slammed the table heavily, and Madam Liu immediately sat back down. Madam Liu II even shrank her neck. Old Madam Liu glanced at her eldest son and said nothing.
"I have the final say on Shiyu's marriage. Since ancient times, marriages have been decided by parents and matchmakers. Mother, you just need to rest assured and take care of the children. Their parents will take care of their affairs. You don't have to worry about it."
Mrs. Liu almost clapped her hands for Liu Zhicheng.
She secretly raised her eyes to glance at Old Madam Liu, only to see that her face was ashen and her heart was beating violently. She was obviously angry at Liu Zhicheng's words. It made sense. She was alone in Dezhou, without the suppression of Old Master Liu. Her children and grandchildren still respected her. The only eldest brother Liu Zhicheng who made her a little afraid had gone to Beijing. No wonder she didn't want to go to Beijing to retire, but was willing to stay in Dezhou?
Now if she wants to interfere in Liu Shiyu's marriage, she must think carefully.
However, Madam Liu was not completely reassured, as she felt that Old Madam Liu must have a backup plan.
Sure enough, after hearing Liu Zhicheng's words, Old Madam Liu's eyes rolled back and she fainted.
"mother."
"Old lady!"
"Why don't you go get a doctor?"
Everyone was in a panic.
Liu Zhicheng was also startled. He quickly ran over and helped Old Madam Liu up from the couch.
"Mom, wake up."
"Master, please stop shaking the old lady. She has an old illness and cannot be provoked, otherwise she will easily faint. Every time the doctor comes to check her pulse, he tells us to obey the old lady in everything and not to make her angry."
Madam Liu's personal nanny supported Madam Liu as she lowered her head.
Liu Zhicheng couldn't help but frowned. Was it because he didn't let her interfere in Shiyu's marriage? Was the old lady angry with him?
"Idiot, why didn't you tell me earlier that the old lady had this problem?"
"My Lord, everyone in the mansion knows that you are usually not in Dezhou. You only come back once every two or three years. The old lady doesn't allow us to tell anyone because she is afraid that you will worry. Besides, you are very filial and you will not disobey the old lady, so everyone thinks that nothing will happen."
Madam Liu was so angry that her teeth were itching. What this old fellow meant was that the people in their first wife's house were unfilial.
"Okay, I got it. Go get the doctor."
Liu Zhicheng waved his hands irritably, then he bent down and carried Old Madam Liu back to the bedroom.
Madam Liu is definitely unable to get away at the moment. She has never served the old lady in Texas before, and now the old lady has fainted because of the people in the first house, so she can only stay and take care of her.
"Qiu Shui, go and tell the young lady what happened here immediately. I can't leave right now. Please ask her to take good care of herself. Got it?"
When Madam Liu said the word "OK", she squeezed Qiu Shui's hand hard.
Qiu Shui gave Madam Liu a reassuring look in return, and immediately bowed and said, "I understand."
The doctor came soon.
Madam Liu stood aside and watched coldly as the doctor came in. The doctor was a middle-aged man with a thin figure, high cheekbones, and small eyes. He looked like a small statue.
The doctor sat on the stool in front of the bed and felt Madam Liu's pulse, then sighed and said, "This is an old problem for the old lady. Didn't I tell you not to make her angry? If it happens again, it will be a problem whether the old lady can wake up."
Madam Liu had been secretly observing the doctor, and happened to see him looking lustfully at Madam Liu's maid Xiuhua.
Madam Liu couldn't help but curse in her heart, but she also understood that maybe the old lady was pretending to faint this time. But she couldn't say it. But she was already thinking of an excuse to send Shiyu back to the capital, or to get engaged to General Wan as soon as possible.
The doctor wrote a prescription and left. The one who saw him off was Madam Liu's maid Xiuhua.
Madam Liu quietly retreated and whispered a few words into the ear of her maid Xia Bing. Xia Bing nodded slightly and followed her out.
When Mrs. Liu entered the room again, she saw everyone looking at her. She immediately covered her face with a handkerchief and sobbed softly.
"Mother, you have suffered so much. My daughter-in-law just ordered someone to make some tonic for you. Please don't let anything happen to you, mother."
No one looked at Madam Liu anymore. Madam Liu's daughters-in-law all surrounded her.
"Since mom is not seriously ill for now, everyone should go about their business. It's not good to have too many people here, so just leave two people to take care of her."
Liu Zhicheng spoke up, and then asked Madam Liu to stay, and the other rooms could send one more person to take turns serving.
Just when Liu Zhicheng was about to leave, Old Madam Liu slowly woke up. Madam Liu's eyes rolled up to the sky. She woke up at the perfect time.
"Mom, are you awake? How do you feel now? Are you still dizzy?" Madam Liu Er was the first person to discover that Madam Liu had woken up. She immediately asked loudly, as if she was afraid that others could not hear her.
Liu Zhicheng stopped walking at this moment.
"Mom, you're awake now. I'm sorry for being so unfilial. I didn't know you had this problem."
"Cheng'er, mother is not going to die yet, but I am worried about the marriage of my children and grandchildren. You said that it is such a good marriage for Shiyu to marry Yaoguang? Why don't you just give in? You..."
As Old Madam Liu spoke, she looked like she was having difficulty breathing, which frightened Liu Zhicheng so much that his face turned pale.
"Mom, are you okay? Don't be angry. I'll do whatever you say. Take a good rest first. When you feel better, we can talk about the children."
After hearing what Liu Zhicheng said, Old Lady Liu finally felt relieved. She closed her eyes slightly with complacency, hiding all her calculations behind her eyelids.
Madam Liu's face turned pale and blue, while Madam Liu II looked very pleased with herself.
Liu Shiyu waited for a long time but did not get any news from Madam Liu. Instead, she got the news that Madam Liu had fainted.
"It seems that grandma is really using the same old tricks again? Mom knows her well, but she will definitely take the opportunity to threaten Dad. Now it depends on how well I know Dad. I bet he cares more about the future of the Liu family."
Liu Shiyu looked at the forsythia in the yard with a determined look.
"Qiu Shui, go back and tell my mother not to worry and to take good care of my grandmother. Don't give her any chance to have a fit at this time."
"Yes, Miss, I will take my leave first."
After Qiu Shui left, Liu Shiyu was not idle. She guessed that her grandmother's illness was definitely fake. But now all the granddaughters have gone to take care of the sick, but she is lying in bed. It seems that she has to show her face too.
"Yinqiao, put on some makeup for me. Make it whiter and look like I'm seriously ill, haggard, and weak. Do you understand?"
"Well, don't worry, Miss. I know."
Liu Shiyu sat in front of the mirror, looking at her beautiful face in the mirror, her hands clenched tightly in her sleeves.
