Before, Shen Qinghuai always thought that
Xu Lingyi had deliberately planned the sunset that day in order to curry favor with the rich and powerful.
He was reluctant to save people in order to avoid getting into these troubles.
Because he knew that many women in the capital wanted to marry him.
Although he was now in his thirties, they seemed to assume that he was deeply affectionate towards his deceased wife and might be the same towards them.
It's really ridiculous.
But it was His Majesty who spoke at that time, and if the king wanted his subject to die, the subject had to die. He could only obey His Majesty and go into the water to save Xu Lingyi.
As expected, as soon as he rescued Xu Lingyi, her family came with a large group of people.
Shen Qinghuai's face darkened completely, but he had no choice but to marry Xu Lingyi.
Because he couldn't be cold and ruthless in front of His Majesty. If he didn't marry Xu Lingyi, he would be forcing this woman to die in public.
Shen Qinghuai didn't want to destroy his image in His Majesty's mind, no matter what he thought of him.
He had no choice but to marry Xu Lingyi.
He married her reluctantly, so he treated her coldly after the marriage.
But he never thought that all this might not be Xu Lingyi's design.
Until Xu Lingyi said these words herself, if she had said it on her own initiative, he would definitely not believe it, but she didn't know that they were just outside the yard.
Shen Qinghuai took Shen’s mother away from Xu Lingyi’s yard.
After walking a distance, Shen's mother spoke: "Maybe she said that because she knew we were there?"
She still didn't think Xu Lingyi was a good person. Her face was seductive and charming, and so was her body.
Shen Qinghuai supported his forehead and thought for a long time, "I will ask someone to check whether she is pretending or not. We will know then."
Although he said this, Shen Qinghuai inexplicably felt that Xu Lingyi must be telling the truth.
After a few days of marriage, she didn't seem to be a restless person. Sometimes she was even too weak and submissive.
————
After hearing what Xu Lingyi said, the emperor couldn't help but shout at her twice.
How could there be such a woman in this world!
"Laifu also thinks I'm right, right?" Xu Lingyi smiled as she held it in her arms. "As long as I'm sincere to my husband and mother, they'll understand me one day."
emperor:"……"
I think you're a fool.
The emperor turned his head away and stopped looking at her.
Well, if he can return to his body in the future, he will ask the Queen Mother to adopt Xu Lingyi as her adopted daughter.
In this way, I would be her sworn brother, and I could confer upon her the title of a princess or a county lady.
The emperor knew that Shen Qinghuai's old mother simply disliked Xu Lingyi's low status, so he would raise her status when the time came.
Xu Lingyi's life will be better in the Shen Mansion.
————
After a night, on the third day, the medicine Xu Lingyi gave to Shen's mother had taken effect.
That night, shouting was heard from Shen Mu's courtyard.
“My face!!”
Mother Shen woke up from a nightmare, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. She was also frightened by the terrible things in the dream.
She had done many bad things in her life over the years, but she didn't think much of it before. But today, she actually saw those faces and those wronged souls in her dream.
"Light the lamps! Light the lamps!"
Mother Shen shouted.
Only when the room was brightly lit did she feel a little relieved.
But not long after, she found that her face was itchy and painful as if it were piercing her heart.
She couldn't help but reach out to grab it, and when she picked up the mirror, she found that her face was covered with densely packed small red dots.
It looked as if he was disfigured.
"Madam, your face?" The nanny came in with her hand holding the candle trembling. She accidentally dropped the candle on the ground and it rolled onto the window curtains. The room was on fire in an instant.
"Fire!" Mother Shen ran out quickly: "Hurry up and put out the fire!!"
At this moment, the anger in her heart reached its peak.
It was a chaotic night at Yu Chen's house, but Yu Xu Lingyi was very happy.
Seeing Shen's mother in trouble, and seeing Shen Qinghuai's face gloomy and unhappy, she felt happy in her heart.
Shen Qinghuai came to see her at noon.
"Mother is sick!" Shen Qinghuai looked indifferent and his voice was cold.
Xu Lingyi quickly put down the cup in her hand and said, "Is my husband's mother okay? I'll go see her and take care of her."
Shen Qinghuai shook his head and pressed his brow, seeming a little irritated. "Now my mother is still bedridden, and there is no one to take care of the affairs of the mansion. The housekeeper is not up to the task. Have you ever learned how to be a housekeeper at home?"
Xu Lingyi nodded, "I know a thing or two."
"Until mother recovers, you will be in charge of this mansion."
Xu Lingyi hesitated: "My dear, I have never been a real head of household. What if I am not competent?"
Shen Qinghuai's face was as gloomy as water, and his tone was firm: "Just do it."
Xu Lingyi pretended to be embarrassed and could only nod.
Although being a housekeeper is a thankless job, it is not without benefits.
The prescription for what she gave to Shen's mother was one year, which meant that she would have to endure these tortures during this year.
As for a year later, she believes she has successfully taken revenge on these people.
When she leaves the Shen Mansion in the future, without her supervision, Shen's mother will not be able to take care of things. What will happen to the Shen Mansion then?
She is looking forward to it.
"How could the old lady have such a strange disease?" Yingchun was puzzled. She muttered softly, "I heard that the old lady has nightmares every night and keeps saying don't come to her. Miss, do you think the old lady has done too many bad things?"
Xu Lingyi shook her head and stopped her from saying anything: "Yingchun, don't make random assumptions about mother."
