Chapter 317 The Empress Dowager
Shi Quanshun choked and was speechless.
Thinking of what she had just said about who they really wanted to deal with when catching the poisonous snake, his face suddenly became extremely terrified.
Could it be that Song Chuman knows their real purpose?
Shi Quanzhi paused for a moment, then got up and slowly walked to his brother's side.
Song Chuman was indeed as strong as the rumors said, and she could even knock down an adult man like him.
Xu Caocao stood in front of Song Chuman, shielding her behind her, and said angrily, "Well, you actually treat a child like this? Do you think the eldest wife of the Song family is easy to bully? Get out of here right now. Considering that your eldest brother still needs treatment, I won't tell the head of the village now. When you come back and Ji Lizheng finds out, I will make him make the decision for Ah Man and give Ah Man an explanation!"
Song Chuman snorted, "That's right. If anything happens to your eldest brother any later, your parents won't forgive you!"
Shi Quanzhi and Shi Quanshun were both stunned. They didn't dare to waste any more time and hurriedly pushed the cart away.
Xu Caocao turned to look at Song Chuman, "Ah Man, don't be afraid. They are bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong. Once they know the consequences of doing something wrong, they will not dare to do anything."
Song Chuman nodded: "Yes, I know, don't worry, aunt, I'm fine."
The five women felt relieved and returned to the cave with Song Chuman.
Song Chuman took out the two roosters from the basket and told the menu for today: "Five aunts, today we will make chicken stewed with kelp, stir-fried seaweed, and cook a bucket of dry rice."
The five women nodded repeatedly.
They were extremely envious. Working in the Song family was so good that they could eat meat every day.
Yesterday it was fish, today it’s chicken, and I don’t know what kind of meat it will be tomorrow.
The five women went to prepare food for the craftsmen, and Song Chuman also went to prepare meals for the family today.
On the other side, Xiao Xuanli had just finished court and was sitting in a sedan chair with the Empress Dowager on the way back to the bedroom.
The Empress Dowager sat for a while and signaled to the palace servants to place her sedan chair and her grandson's sedan chair side by side.
Seeing this, Xiao Xuanli asked with concern, "Grandmother, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
The Grand Empress Dowager sighed and said, "Li'er, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the Imperial Grandmother will not attend court with you. With Prince Gongxuan and the Regent here, you don't need the Imperial Grandmother. The Imperial Grandmother wants to rest for two days."
Xiao Xuanli asked with concern, "Grandmother, are you feeling unwell again?"
The Empress Dowager nodded: "Yes, I always feel bored. I always feel like I am going to die."
"Grandmother!" Xiao Xuanli couldn't help but raise her voice. "You say that again. You will definitely live to be a hundred years old. The imperial physician said that every part of your body is healthy and there is nothing wrong with you."
The Empress Dowager rubbed her forehead, looking exhausted, and said, "But I always feel that I will be gone soon."
Xiao Xuanli was helpless: "No, didn't my grandson tell you? I asked someone to find the giant sea turtle. She is very capable, I believe she will find it quickly."
The Empress Dowager sighed and said, "How could it be that easy? Don't think I don't know. You've carried me to the beach at least dozens of times, but you never found it once."
"I heard that turtles that big are usually found in the deep sea or in the open sea. I read in a book that animals from the deep sea or the open sea usually don't come near the coast, and they usually don't come ashore, so you can't find them."
