Chapter 619 If you still have any shame, then kill yourself!
Two hours later, Madam Shen's health finally improved.
The women breathed a sigh of relief; if the old lady had passed away now, it would have been no good for them.
"Did you just say that Lanxi has arrived?" Old Madam Shen had only just recovered a little, yet she was already thinking about plans for the Shen family.
"Yes, he's out handling official documents."
"Bring her in!"
...
"Grandmother, are you feeling better?" Shen Lanxi asked with concern.
Not only did she come in, but Shen Congwen and his brothers also came in.
"I'm feeling much better. I heard from them that you're dealing with memorials to the throne."
Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "These are all important matters that need to be dealt with."
Old Madam Shen sighed, "You're already so busy, yet you still manage to come see this old woman."
"What are you saying, Grandmother? If I hadn't come, it would truly mean I only care about the Great Zhou and not my family."
Madam Shen felt gratified, happy, and also a little uneasy.
"You can all leave now. I want to have a good talk with Lanxi."
The people inside filed out.
"Lanxi, I'm sorry for what I did to you before." Old Madam Shen's tears rolled down her cheeks.
Shen Lanxi: "Grandmother, what are you saying? We are family, what is there to apologize for?"
When Madam Shen heard her say that, her tears fell even more rapidly.
“My grandmother used to be too proud and always tried to use her seniority to suppress you, which made her mean to you.”
Shen Lanxi seemed relieved and smiled, "Grandmother, with your words, all my hardships and exhaustion are worthwhile. Take good care of yourself, and you will surely live to be a hundred years old."
Madam Shen nodded repeatedly, deeply moved.
"Grandmother, I have already sent someone to summon the divine physician from Medicine King Valley. You should take good care of yourself and let them treat your body. In three to five days, your health will be even better than before."
Madam Shen had intended to take this opportunity to bestow a title upon a younger member of the family, but her granddaughter quickly dismissed it with a few words.
"Grandmother, please rest well. The memorials to be discussed in court tomorrow have not yet been approved. I will have a lot to do when I get back."
Madam Shen smiled kindly and said, "Go on, take care of yourself, and don't work too late."
"Yes, Grandmother."
...
Before leaving the Shen family, Shen Lanxi made a special trip to see her mother.
"Mother, what happened to Grandmother?"
A schadenfreude flashed in Zhou Xinrou's eyes.
"Shen Yuantang replaced the fresh tea with strong tea that had been left overnight."
Shen Lanxi said with a pained expression, "We grew up together. She grew up under her grandmother's care since she was a child. How could she do something to harm her grandmother?"
"How could she do that?"
Zhou Xinrou: "I've told you before, don't be so devoted to the Shen family, but you just wouldn't listen."
Shen Lanxi said sadly, "My daughter thought that based on the bond we've known since childhood, she wouldn't harm her family."
"People's hearts change, but only your mother will truly be good to you." Zhou Xinrou took the opportunity to remind Shen Lanxi.
"Mother, I understand, but I just can't accept it!" Shen Lanxi lowered her head, looking like she had been hit hard.
Zhou Xinrou was delighted to see her like this.
"Just remember this once, and your mother will understand."
"After all, you grew up together since you were little, and your mother had never told you about your background before. The bond between you can't be broken overnight."
Zhou Xinrou offered both comfort and guidance.
"I just hope you can learn from this experience and be more wary of the Shen family in the future."
“They didn’t come from their mother’s womb, so no matter how good your relationship was before, you will never be of one mind.”
Shen Lanxi lowered her head and nodded.
"Daughter will remember, thank you for your guidance, Mother."
Zhou Xinrou nodded: "Go ahead and get busy. I'll keep an eye on the Shen family; nothing will go wrong."
"I will send more people to Madam Shen's side to prevent others from taking advantage of the situation."
"Thank you for your trouble, Mother."
After leaving the Shen family, Shen Lanxi's face darkened.
Where did Shen Yuantang go?
"Chengji Pastry Shop, the shopkeeper had several contacts with Shen Yuantang before, and it has been confirmed that the shopkeeper is Zhou Ruyuan's man."
Shen Lanxi: "Don't worry about it, just keep an eye on her. I want to see how far she can go."
"yes!"
The old lady is in good health, but needs proper recuperation. After discussing among the families, it was decided that the concubines and the stepmothers of the concubines would take care of the old lady, and the legitimate children would formally prepare Shen Yuantang's dowry.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and there were only two days left before Shen Yuantang left.
On this day, taking advantage of the people coming and going in the shops of the mansion, a young man quietly entered Shen Yuantang's room.
~
"Has anyone seen the princess?" After the gold shop delivered the peony headdress, Liu asked the maids in the mansion after checking the accounts.
"The princess seems to be in her room and hasn't come out yet."
"Lunch is delivered by the kitchen."
Since Liu was determined to make the trip anyway and have Shen Yuantang compare the dowry list, she didn't send anyone but went herself with two maids.
Before we even got close, we could hear the sounds of men and women laughing and joking inside.
Liu's expression changed drastically.
How could there be a man in the inner quarters?
It still makes that kind of sound?
They're about to go to the Northwest for a marriage alliance. If outsiders see this, what will become of the Shen family's reputation?
"You two go and call the masters from the four rooms over."
Liu's face darkened with anger.
This Shen Yuantang may not be as good as her sister in other aspects, but she's certainly no less skilled when it comes to finding a man.
They've utterly disgraced the family; they have no sense of propriety, righteousness, or shame.
With a dark expression, Liu dispersed the people nearby, and soon the four Shen brothers arrived.
"You all go in and take a look. I don't even dare to go in. It's too embarrassing, too embarrassing!" Liu pulled Miao aside.
"Should we tell the princess?"
Miao was completely dumbfounded.
This is the Shen family!
When did these filthy and smelly creatures become allowed to enter and leave the Shen family's gate?
This is Shen Yuantang's courtyard. Listening to the blush-inducing sounds coming from inside, Shen Congwen understood everything.
"I'll beat this shameless bastard to death!"
The three Shen brothers hurriedly followed.
With a loud crash, the door was kicked open, followed by Shen Yuantang's scream.
"You...you shameless bastard! With the marriage alliance imminent, how could you do such a disgraceful thing!" Shen Congwen's vision blurred with anger. He gritted his teeth and glared angrily at Shen Yuantang.
"You have disgraced the Shen family. What face do you have left to live in this world?"
"Go to hell! My Shen family has no place for a shameless person like you!"
Shen Congwen was furious, his anger as fierce as thunder.
"Father, I was wrong. I have been in love with Sun Lang for a long time. I only called him here to make things clear because my marriage is imminent."
Shen Congwen's face darkened even more after hearing this.
The mess on the ground and the disheveled appearance of the two people make it seem like they're trying to make things clear.
“Shen Yuantang, my Shen family has no daughter like you. You are no longer a member of my Shen family.”
"After you die, you are not allowed to enter my Shen family's cemetery, and your name will not be on the family genealogy."
"If you still have any shame, then kill yourself."
