Chapter 132 Listen to you
The old lady's expression tightened: "What do you mean by that? Are you cursing me to die a horrible death?"
“That’s not what I meant,” Shen Fu said. “I was just offering a friendly piece of advice; whether you listen or not is up to you.”
She quickly calculated in her mind that the only people her grandmother could use were the servants of Ninghui Hall. If they were to openly rob her, they would definitely not be able to outmaneuver her and her fourth brother.
At worst, she could take Zhaozhao to Chang Le Yuan to look after her herself; anyway, her older brother should be back soon.
With this in mind, Shen Funian felt even more confident and refused to back down no matter what she said.
Shen Fuyou chimed in, which infuriated the old lady.
"You guys have really gone too far!"
“Grandmother, it’s really unfair of you to do this,” Shen Fuyou sighed. “If you want to raise Zhaozhao yourself, you can wait until my elder brother comes back. What’s the point of doing it secretly now?”
The old lady raised her voice and said, "What do you mean by sneaking around! Is it wrong for me to take care of my great-granddaughter?"
“That’s right, that’s right,” Shen Fuyou replied perfunctorily, “but it needs my elder brother and sister-in-law’s consent. Why don’t you write him a letter?”
The old lady was even angrier: "I can't read a single word, what am I supposed to write!"
"How about this, you tell me what you say and I'll write it down. I promise I'll write down every single word you say."
Seeing that the topic was getting further and further off track, Granny Zhao coughed heavily.
The old lady came to her senses: "Fuhan will definitely agree. Listen to me, bring Zhaozhao to Ninghui Hall."
After going around in circles for a while, Shen Funian ran out of patience and gave up.
"I'm going to take care of Zhaozhao now. You two can continue your conversation."
Shen Fuyou quickly followed, saying, "Sister, wait for me!"
The old lady stomped her feet in anger: "How could I have such grandchildren! Not a single one of them is on my side; they all betray me!"
"Madam, please don't be angry," Zhao Mama said, trying to calm her down. "The Marquis will surely understand your good intentions. Why don't we wait until after the Marquis arrives to discuss this further?"
"No!" the old lady said through gritted teeth. "Once they come out of the main courtyard, you go and take the child. Let's see which servant in the main courtyard dares to stop you!"
In the main courtyard, Zhao Zhao had just taken her medicine and quickly fell asleep.
Shen Funian carefully touched her forehead; it was still a little hot, and she couldn't help but frown.
Su Ye said, "The medicine won't work that quickly."
“Of course I know,” Shen Funian glanced at him. “I’m just worried about my little niece, is that wrong?”
Su Ye replied, "Of course, whatever you say is right."
Their tone was so natural that Shen Fu asked with concern, "Are you two that familiar with each other?"
Shen Funian panicked for a moment and explained, "I had a poor appetite some time ago, and Doctor Su treated me. We're quite familiar with each other, aren't we?"
"You have a poor appetite?" Shen Fuyou looked her up and down, his expression suspicious.
Shen Funian went straight for kicking his leg.
"You're so angry with Wang Chengyao that you can't eat. You don't care about your sister at all. Get out!"
A soft laugh came from beside her, and Shen Funian froze abruptly.
I almost forgot, Su Ye is still here.
She quickly composed herself, pretended nothing had happened, and got down to business.
“I don’t think Grandma will let this go. Why don’t I take Zhaozhao to my place later? Grandma definitely won’t be able to do anything about it.”
Shen Fuyou rubbed her sore calf and agreed, "That's what I think too. No matter how powerful Grandmother is, she'll have to admit defeat when she meets a tigress."
Shen Funian said smugly, "That was when..."
She suddenly realized what she was doing and raised her voice, asking, "Who are you calling a tigress?"
Shen Fuyou had already run away, yelling strangely.
Shen Funian held a grudge against him in her heart, but pretended to be nonchalant and said, "He's talking nonsense, don't take it to heart."
Su Ye suppressed a laugh and said, "Yes."
When no one was looking, Shen Funian secretly pinched him. What are you laughing at!
When Zhao Zhao woke up, Shen Funian wrapped her up like a rice dumpling and carried her to Chang Le Yuan in layers of clothing.
The wet nurse and the maids who served her naturally followed, making Chang Le Courtyard more lively than ever before.
The old lady was both angry and anxious when she received the news. This Shen Funian was just trying to go against her!
But no matter how hard she tried to outwit him, Shen Funian wouldn't let him go, and the old lady finally gave up.
Zhao Zhao's illness had almost fully recovered, so Shen Funian wrote a letter, truthfully recounting what had happened in the past few days.
Wen Jiayue received the letter two days later.
She read it word by word, feeling a heavy weight lift and then fall back down in her heart.
As expected, the old lady tried to harm Zhaozhao, but fortunately, she escaped danger.
What she didn't expect was that the reason for the attack was to make her give birth to a son, which was truly absurd and ridiculous.
She wrote a reply to Shen Funian, thanking her and her fourth brother for their care, and also sent back the clothes she had just made for Zhaozhao.
Living in the mansion in Yuzhou was much easier than living in the Marquis's mansion. She didn't have to manage the affairs of a large family, and there were no maids or servants. The guards were managed by Ling He, so she didn't have to worry about them.
That's why she could concentrate on making clothes for Zhaozhao, pouring all her love for Zhaozhao into every stitch.
Just as he handed the package he had sent to the capital to a guard, another guard came to report that Shen Fuhan had returned.
This time, Wen Jiayue didn't go out to greet them. She simply responded and went back to her room.
Only after closing the door did she realize that her heart was beating a little fast.
After being busy for several days in a row, Shen Fuhan should be able to get some rest tonight, right?
Moreover, judging by the time, it's time to head back to Beijing, and she should be able to find an excuse to avoid it.
Steady footsteps came from outside the door. Wen Jiayue walked into the inner room and pushed open the window.
As soon as Shen Fuhan came in, he saw her opening the window and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you cold?"
The sky was overcast today, and it rained this morning, so it was chilly.
"I'm not cold," Wen Jiayue said, pursing her lips. "I want to get some fresh air."
It was still daylight, and there were guards outside, so she wasn't afraid that Shen Fuhan would launch a surprise attack.
"Will the Marquis go out again this time?" Wen Jiayue asked. "When are we returning to the capital?"
"I won't go out, the day after tomorrow."
Wen Jiayue paused for a moment: "Are there any other plans for tomorrow?"
Shen Fuhan looked at her: "I'll listen to you."
"Listen to me?" Wen Jiayue looked up in surprise. "Then let's go straight back to the capital."
She really missed Zhaozhao and wished she could fly back right now.
"Since you've come all the way to Yuzhou, don't you want to do some sightseeing?" Shen Fuhan asked. "Aren't you going to the temples?"
Wen Jiayue was surprised that he remembered what she had said, and hesitated for a moment.
Having finally come all this way to Yuzhou, she naturally wanted to sightsee, but Zhaozhao…
Seeing that she was hesitant to make a decision, Shen Fuhan said, "Returning to the capital the day after tomorrow is a certainty. If you don't want to go..."
Wen Jiayue's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "I'll go!"
Shen Fuhan's eyes darkened slightly, but returned to normal when he looked up.
"it is good."
