In an instant, the maids and servants rushed forward, pinching her philtrum and giving her medicine; everyone was busy.
The herbal medicine was freshly brewed and still warm.
Old Madam Wang slowly woke up. Shen Mingzhu shook her head when she saw that she was awake and said to the system in her mind.
[Guagua, my grandmother's health is so weak. Why does she faint so easily?]
Host, the elderly person is getting on in years and has some chronic illnesses, which is normal. Besides, the physician, Doctor Wang, is quite skilled; he can easily handle this minor ailment.
As soon as Wang opened her eyes, she heard Shen Mingzhu saying that she was frail and would faint easily.
She glanced at Shen Changyuan, opened her mouth, but didn't say anything.
Looking at her appearance, and then at Shen Miaomiao, who was crying her eyes out next to her, Shen Mingzhu almost rolled her eyes to the sky.
"Grandmother, Father, Mother. Prince An, His Highness the Crown Prince, Prime Minister Lin, Minister Gu, General Tian, Grand Secretary Su and others have come to our residence, saying that we can ask them for help if we need anything."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qinghong immediately led Shen Qingzhan out to entertain them.
"I hope my son can ignore my past and help his half siblings..."
Madam Wang looked at Shen Changyuan with expectant eyes.
Shen Changyuan turned his face away.
[Why...]
[Poor Daddy, his own mother is making him clean up his stepsister's messes again!]
Madam Wang glared fiercely at Shen Mingzhu.
[Wow, Guagua, Grandma's eyes are so scary! It looks like she's going to eat me alive!]
Host, don't be afraid. You've forgotten you're still wearing your protective jade. Besides, your parents and your second and fourth brothers are all here. She won't do that.
[Guagua, why don't we just kick our cheap aunt out!]
Didn't you see? Your grandmother won't allow it!
[Sigh... Father is having such a hard time. Grandmother is so indecent. If only Grandfather were here!]
Host, there are soul-summoning talismans in the system shop. You can buy one to summon your grandfather to deal with your grandmother or divorce her since she committed one of the seven grounds for divorce.
[Guagua, is this really okay? I'm afraid my grandma will just die, and then the whole family will have to observe three years of mourning for her, and she won't have to do anything! She's still useful!!!]
"You, you, you..."
The old lady, Madam Wang, looked at Shen Mingzhu, pointing at her with tears in her eyes, wishing she could go up and fight her to the death.
This granddaughter who came back halfway is indeed vicious.
She actually had to ask the old man to divorce her.
How old is she?
This is practically forcing her to die.
Moreover, she did her job discreetly; even that person has been gone for several years, leaving no way to verify her story.
How dare she!
Shen Mingzhu was puzzled.
"Grandmother, what are you doing?"
"You, you, you, you shut up!!! Beep beep beep, beep beep beep!!!"
[Guagua, what is my grandma babbling about? Someone step forward and kick Shen Miaomiao out!]
Shen Changyuan looked at his mother and this adopted younger sister and stepped forward, just about to speak.
"Changyuan, she's your sister too! She shares the same blood as you!"
"Mother! Father will never forgive me!"
Old Madam Wang closed her eyes, two lines of clear tears sliding down her cheeks, which she quickly wiped away.
[Oh dear, Guagua, look at my grandmother! Anyone who didn't know better would think she was so devoted to her children! If they were his own siblings, wouldn't she say, "We are all born of the same root, why are you so cruel to each other?"]
Host, that's not your biological aunt; she's from an illegitimate family. The fact that your father can still speak to her politely is already a testament to his good manners!
Oh dear... Grandma's so confused!
Look how difficult this is for her son!
Looking at the old lady Wang's appearance, Shen Changyuan felt bad. After all, she was his biological mother.
A son doesn't despise his mother for being ugly, nor does he despise his family for being poor.
He would cover up his mother's mistakes and ensure she could live out her old age in comfort.
"Changyuan, Changshan, Miaomiao, take good care of yourselves. From now on, your mother will chant sutras and pray for you in the small Buddhist hall."
She took a deep look at her daughter, Shen Miaomiao.
"Miaomiao, don't be willful anymore. Live a good life with Jingshen. Your mother is old and can't help you anymore!!!"
"Mother, you..."
Shen Miaomiao felt her mother's energy and spirit vanish instantly, and she seemed to age ten years in an instant. The once straight-backed old lady was now hunched over...
What happened?
Is it just my imagination?
[Guagua, what does my grandmother mean? Are these her last words? She really isn't planning to do anything rash, isn't she? because my dad, my older brothers, and I still have a lot of ambitions ahead of us!]
Cough cough cough...
Cough cough cough...
The old lady, Madam Wang, was so angry that she was panting and coughing incessantly.
Shen Changyuan Sighed inwardly: My little drafty cotton-padded jacket, that's enough, your grandmother can't take it anymore!
"Mother, Mother, are you okay ?"
Shen Miaomiao was somewhat frightened when she saw the old lady, Madam Wang's, appearance.
My mother loves me the most, so I absolutely can not let anything happen to her.
She had recently sensed her older brother's rejection of her, and she had been trying to find out why, but she had no clue.
"Mother, mother~~~"
Looking at the two brothers, Shen Changyuan and Shen Changshan, the old lady seemed to have made up her mind.
"Changyuan, Changshan, you..." You can't just ignore her!
"Mom, just focus on getting better. We can talk about everything else once you're fully recovered!"
A group of people surrounded the old lady, Madam Wang, showing her great concern.
The Crown Prince and Prince An, who were outside, listened to the commotion inside without moving an inch.
Shen Qinghong and Shen Qingzhan could only lie on the side and keep him company.
If they had known, they wouldn't have come out to entertain them. Wouldn't it have been better to just sit inside and drink tea?
Prince An: My goodness, the melons from the Shen family are delicious.
He really regretted leaving the palace so late. Otherwise, he could have gotten his hands on the gossip in Chaoyang Mansion, too.
His Highness the Crown Prince: Sigh...
He needs to find an opportunity to "deal with" Shen Changshan and Shen Miaomiao from the Shen family.
They're playing a game of pretending to be a young master or a young lady here!
His young crown princess can not have such a "stain."
Get rid of them all!
My father-in-law is too cautious and not efficient at all.
General Tian: Sister Xie can not be wronged. General Xie protects the country, so let him protect his daughter.
Xie Qinghuan: Thank you so much!
I'll bring you some rice, flour, cooking oil, and tea another day.
Su Shi: We are all of the same origin. Why are we so eager to destroy each other!
Wonderful, wonderful~~~ "
Another beautiful line of poetry!
But what are the first two sentences?
Anxious.
Waiting for an answer online!
It's urgent!!!
Yan Yunci: I'm just a bystander!
Come and see, come and see!
Shen Qinghong: Family members, take it easy. Everyone is watching and listening!
Shen Qingzhan: It seems that the Shen family is about to experience a qualitative leap!
He glanced at Crown Prince Yan Beichen, then slowly stayed by his side...
"Brother, brother, which of you two will accompany me back to the Duke of Li's mansion?"
"Waaaaah..."
Xie Qinghuan and Shen Changyuan exchanged a glance; it was obvious that neither of them wanted to go!
Shen Changshan said, "Miaomiao, your second brother will take you there."
"Thank you, Second Brother! You're the best, Second Brother!"
[Guagua, did you see that? Full siblings are always closer. My dad, a half-sibling, is just unreliable!].
Shen Changyuan's lips twitched as he listened.
Why am I unreliable?
They will find out the truth eventually!
