Chapter 60: The Old Lady Learns the Prophecy

The eldest lady has grown so big, it is the first time she has been beaten, and she is still beaten by her mother-in-law.

But the eldest lady also has a characteristic, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, looking at the old lady looking at her with sharp eyebrows and eyes, she flattened her mouth, did not scold back, just patted the ground and shouted: "I'm not alive, I'm not alive, go home, go home and find my father!" ”

Sifu was also frightened by the old lady's position, she had been in the Shen family for more than 20 years, and she had never seen the old lady beat someone, so she didn't dare to plead, so she could only pull the eldest lady's sleeve to comfort the eldest lady.

Old Madam Shen pointed to the eldest lady's nose and said: "Not only did you ruin Yu Niang's appearance, but the three princes passed by and were all rushed by bandits, if the three princes have one long and two short, you wait to be raided!" ”

The eldest lady forgot to cry: "The third prince? How does it have anything to do with him?! ”

Old Madam Shen was too lazy to take care of Mrs. Shen, and called her subordinates: "Lock her up in the firewood room for me and leave, without my order, no one is allowed to visit or deliver food, Zhang Yuemei, you are completely to blame for today!" ”

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and stepped into the courtyard gate angrily.

……

……

The old lady returned to her room, and the room full of plain white reminded her that the family was still doing funerals, but now she really didn't have so much energy to think about the old man's burial, and she was angry, really angry.

She felt ten years older, and she sat weakly on the couch under the south window rubbing her temples.

The maid brought the tea, and the old lady didn't move for a look, and then she heard a gentle voice say, "Give the lady a bowl of milk, you go first." ”

After everyone left, Old Madam Shen raised her head.

It was Mama Chen who was talking, and Mama Chen walked behind the old lady and helped the old lady loosen her shoulders.

The old lady felt a little better, she asked; "Locked up?! Did You Qi rob me of someone?! ”

Mama Chen said: "You say it personally, You Qi is not so bold, but the eldest lady has been clamoring to find her in-laws, this matter is ......"

The old lady's tone was very tough: "Even if he Zhang Laohan comes, what can he do, a woman, buying a murderer, and sending it to the government is enough for a capital crime, it is in the Shen family, and she can still save her life, what grievances can their Zhang family have!" ”

Even if the Zhang family is dissatisfied, of course they don't dare to tear their faces with the Shen family, after all, the eldest lady is at fault first.

Mama Chen asked; "Is the old lady going to give the eldest lady a head? It's too sad for the eldest lady to misinterpret your meaning.

But no matter what she is, she is the face of the Shen family, or the biological mother of the eldest prince......"

The old lady didn't say anything, looked ahead, and asked Mama Chen to continue.

Mama Chen suddenly choked up and said: "Old lady, I don't care about anything else, I'm just afraid that you will go to the lord and be wronged, that Yu Niang's face is bad, or what the eldest lady does, the lord will definitely embarrass you, saying that it was instructed by you, I'm afraid you can't stand it!"

If the eldest lady is good, forget it, you look at her like that, don't appreciate it and don't say it, as if you owe her, the slave is a subordinate, say something that doesn't matter, otherwise don't care about her! ”

The old lady asked the eldest lady to be locked up instead of sent away, apparently intending to save the eldest lady.

Old Madam Shen sighed and said: "I have been a husband and a child in the first half of my life, and I think that I have never done anything to be sorry for my conscience.

Zhang Yuemei is stupid to buy murder, but I am her mother-in-law, and when she calls me mother, she loses her virtue of control.

For the sake of business, I have to keep her! ”

After speaking, she took a sip of tea, then wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, put the tea bowl back on the table, stared slightly ahead for a moment, as if she had made up her mind, and then stood up and walked out.

Her back is as straight as a pine, reflecting the bright sunlight outside the window, and the elegant person has a kind of awe-inspiring look at death.

Mama Chen couldn't cry silently, and she would definitely be humiliated if she went.

"Mother!" Just then, a worried voice came from the door, and then a young woman with dimples entered.

It's the Fifth Lady.

Old Madam Shen's tense face tried to squeeze out a smile, for fear of scaring her child, she asked unhurriedly, "What's wrong?" Are you flustered?! ”

The fifth lady pursed her lips and knelt down directly: "Mother, there is one thing I have been hiding from you, hiding it from everyone, please punish you!" ”

Mrs. Shen was a little disheartened because of the eldest lady's affairs, she didn't know why, she had been working hard to run this family, even men could ignore it, don't ask, don't, as long as the children were good, but they would still do wrong things.

For the fifth lady, there is no thought of punishment now.

She said lightly: "I still have something, and you can't do anything rebellious, you can't be the same as your sister-in-law, right?" Go back and wait until I'm done with your sister-in-law's affairs. ”

The fifth lady said: "I just want to talk about the sister-in-law, mother, I heard someone say about it, although it is not accurate, I can also listen to it, it is the sister-in-law who wants to deal with that Miss Li, and then by mistake, tied up Yu Niang."

But have you ever wondered why this is the case? That young lady only brought a maid, how could she escape the ambush of the bandits?! ”

Old Madam Shen really didn't think about this matter, because the people on Shen Tianlan's side replied and said that it was a misunderstanding.

She said, "Didn't that young lady go out of the city?" They didn't leave, so it's okay! ”

What the fifth lady is afraid of is this, obviously the sister-in-law has calculated the matter, why did things fall in the end, if it was just a defeat, the sister-in-law would not have to be locked up, because she accidentally injured her own team and ruined Yu Niang's face.

Is it really all a misunderstanding? Isn't there any artificiality?!

The fifth lady's voice was already a little unbearable: "Mother, that young lady told me when she robbed her relatives, she said that our family would be ruined, and I was afraid that no one would dare to say it, so I hid it."

But she can explain my illness, even the maid in my room doesn't know, she can say it, she has the eye of the sky, can deduce the past, predict the future, sister-in-law's calculations, think about it is within her expectations, so this is a counter-killing! ”

Old Madam Shen was shocked and a little incredulous: "The family is ruined?!" What do you mean, Zhang Yuemei and the matter of buying out the bandits, this woman knows?! ”

"I know, she knows everything, she can pinch and have a discerning eye, she knows everything, so you must not offend him!"

Old Madam Shen also remembered that her daughter-in-law had quarreled with this girl at that time and almost drove people away, thinking that it was for this matter.

The eldest lady talked to Li Guangchen, and the old lady specially sent someone to inquire, because she was afraid that the eldest lady would mess up, and the little daughter-in-law didn't have the courage, so she didn't send someone.
