Chapter 1216 Leaving the Mess to Others

Nanny Yu, has Grandma taken any medicine? In the room, Shao Jieer helped Old Madam lie down and carefully tucked her in.

Nanny Yu nodded and said, Yes. Old Madam is in poor health and has been taking medicine.

Has she taken some tonics? Some good medicinal soup is actually better than medicine, Shao Jieer said with concern.

Well Old Madam doesnt like medicinal soup very much! Nanny Yu said helplessly.

I have a prescription here. This medicinal soup is good for nouris.h.i.+ng. Nanny Yu, please ask the kitchen to make one for Old Madam to have a try. Maybe it will work. Consort Dowager Qing has been using it before, and I think it works great for her. Shao Jieer took out a prescription for a kind of medicinal soup from her arms and handed it to Nanny Yu.

If it works, it will be great. Thank you, Second Miss, Nanny Yu said, turned around, and left with the prescription.

Shao Jieer looked at Old Madam lying on the bed calmly. In a short time, Old Madam had begun to snore softly as if she had fallen asleep.

Maybe Shao Jieers eyes were too gloomy, Old Madam moved and opened her eyes. Seeing Shao Jieer standing still in front of the bed, she moved her throat and scolded, Youre done here. Get out of here!

She felt bad luck while looking at Shao Jieer like that.

Old Madam, do you want me to leave? Shao Jieer suddenly smiled. The light from the window fell on her eyes, and there was a deep light in them.

What a cheap concubines daughter. Old Madam snorted and closed her eyes. She had always looked down on any concubines daughters. Now only her son lived in Marquis Xings Mansion. The concubines sons and daughters had long been asked to leave.

Suddenly, Shao Jieer grabbed her neck. Old Madam opened her eyes in pain and saw Shao Jieers gloomy smile. She struggled hard, but her throat was tightly pinched. Although Shao Jieer was not strong, she was much stronger than Old Madam.

Old Madam, do you think that I, a concubines daughter, am useless while Shao Yanru, the legitimate daughter, is useful? Shao Jieer said with a smile full of hatred and a ferocious look on her beautiful face, Whats so good about her? You all give her everything. When you see her bullying me, you even ask me to apologize. It will always be me who is in the wrong. I am like a piece of mud on Shao Yanrus feet. Old Madam, have you ever thought that you will be killed by some mud one day?

Shao Jieer didnt talk loudly, but Old Madam heard every word she said. She struggled hard, breathed quickly, and desperately tried to get rid of Shao Jieers hands.

Old Madam, dont you want to save my father? In fact, there is a way. You should die! If you die, my father will have to come back and mourn for you. Maybe that will solve the problem. What do you think? How about youll just die to save my father? Shao Jieer laughed a little crazily, but she suppressed Old Madam tightly. Old Madam felt more horrified.

She was still clear-minded while she was crazy. Wouldnt such a person be the most terrifying?

Old Madam struggled to roll her eyes. The saliva dripped from the corner of her mouth. She rolled her eyes and fainted.

Shao Jieer put down her hands and wiped them carefully with a handkerchief. She wiped her hands very slowly and made them clean as if she had never strangled Old Madam just now.

After wiping her hands, she stood at the head of the bed and looked coldly at Old Madam, who was twitching with crooked eyes and mouth. With a slight smile, she turned around and walked out of the inner room.

In the outer room, she asked Liuxiang to pour a cup of tea and sat quietly, waiting for Zhao Xiran to send her servant over.

Sure enough, not long after, an old maid came over to invite her. Shao Jieer instructed the servant girl guarding the door a few times and then followed the old maid sent by Zhao Xiran.

As soon as she left, Nanny Yu came back in a hurry. When she went to the door and asked the servant girl guarding outside, she knew that Old Madam did not call for her. As soon as Second Miss left, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Nanny Yu wiped the sweat off her forehead and walked to the inner room. As soon as she entered the inner room, she saw Old Madam lying on the bed with saliva dripping from her mouth and rolled eyes. She was so scared that she almost fell to the ground.

When Zhao Xiran and Shao Jieer arrived at Prince Chens Mansion, they didnt enter the interior. Instead, they went back.

Princess Chen was not in Prince Chens Mansion. She had gone to the Palace. They didnt know when she would come back. Since they couldnt see her after entering the mansion, they might as well go back first.

When the carriage returned to the mansion, Zhao Xiran got out and saw an old maid rus.h.i.+ng over in front of her. It was the old maid who came with her when she got married.

Eldest Young Madam, please go and check on Old Madam. Shes in danger!

What happened? Zhao Xiran asked in shock.

I dont know. I just saw Nanny Yu go to the First Young Master, and he got an imperial physician over. Now the First Young Master has gone to the Chuntang Courtyard. Please go and check on Old Madam! the old maid said.

Shao Jieer also got out of the carriage. Hearing the words of the old maid, she walked over and asked, Sister Zhao, what happened?

Old Madam is in danger! Zhao Xiran said with a gloomy face.

Lets go and check on her! Shao Jieer said hurriedly with an anxious look.

When they hurried over, they saw a lot of people sitting in the room. Even their Third Uncle, who rarely showed up, appeared. The Third Madam struggled to come over despite her illness. Shao Caihuan and Shao Cailing were also there. Everyone looked upset and gloomy.

Zhao Xiran looked around, found Shao Huaan sitting in the chair, and hurried over.

Shao Huaan looked quite gloomy. He glanced at Zhao Xiran and said gloomily, which was rare, Where have you been? Something happened to Grandma, but you werent around.

Grandma asked me and Second Sister to see Fifth Sister. Zhao Xiran felt wronged.

Shao Huaan knew what she meant and asked in a low voice, How did it go?

We didnt see Fifth Sister. She went to the Palace and I dont know when she will come back. Zhao Xiran lowered her voice and asked, How is Grandmother? What happened?

Grandma may have had a stroke! Shao Huaan said impatiently. His biological mother had just died, and such a thing had happened to his grandma today. His father had been taken away by the Ministry of Justice for interrogation. The whole Marquis Xings Mansion was in chaos.

The imperial physician came out of the room. Ignoring Zhao Xiran, Shao Huaan pushed her away, took a few steps forward, and asked anxiously, Doctor, how is my grandma?

The imperial physician shook his head helplessly and said, Old Madam has always been in poor health and fainted just now. She really had a stroke this time. Shell keep recuperating from now on. Im afraid she wont be able to get up.

My grandma has been fine How could she end up like this? Shao Huaan asked anxiously.

The imperial physician said, I dont know. She had a stroke on the bed, and none of you knew it. Arent the servants in your manor supposed to serve her in front of the bed? Its not strange for an old woman, who is in poor health, to have a stroke occasionally. You are too careless.

He thought that Old Madam of Marquis Xing had to have someone to closely take care of her and keep an eye on her. Otherwise, she would easily get in danger. She should not have had such a serious stroke if she had someone serve her closely.

Half of her body suffered from the stroke. How could she move? He was certain that she would have to spend the rest of her time lying in bed.

Is there any other way? Shao Huaan asked.

No. Youll just take care of her during the rest of her days, the imperial physician said. After that, he left with the medicine chest and went to the wing room to give a prescription.

It was better for Old Madam to take some medicine than not.

Nanny Yu, what exactly happened? Third Master Shao looked at Nanny Yu unkindly and said in a sharp voice, My mother has always been fine before. How could such a thing happen?

Nanny Yu knelt and said, Third Master, I dont know. I just went to get a medicinal soup prescription for Old Madam and gave it to the kitchen. I found her like that when I came back. Second Miss gave the prescription to me.

How could Nanny Yu remain composed after such a thing happened to Old Madam?

Third Master Shaos eyes fell on Shao Jieer as he asked unhappily, Jieer, why are you here today? What happened? How did your grandma become like this?

Third Uncle, I I dont know. Grandma was fine when I left! Shao Jieer was so scared that she stammered.

Third Master Shao looked at Shao Jieer suspiciously and asked, What do you mean by you dont know? Since you were there at that time, how could you know nothing? Did you do something?

Shao Jieer was now a consort of Commandery Prince Qing. Who knew if she would do something to hurt Old Madam?ReadNovelFull.com

Third Uncle, what are you talking about? Im here to see Grandmother today. I heard from Fifth Sister that Grandmother is in poor health. After I came here, Sister Zhao asked me to go to Fifth Sister together. How can you blame me for what happened while I merely stayed in the mansion for such a short time? Third Uncle, if you dont believe me, Im willing to die to prove my innocence!

Shao Jieer got anxious. She cried and was about to run into the pillar on the side.

Liuxiang grabbed her and burst into tears as well. The room became more and more chaotic. Third Madam reached out to touch her forehead and felt that the veins on her forehead were beating rapidly. She pressed her eyes hard to suppress the inexplicable discomfort in her heart and then slowly opened her eyes. Alright. Enough with this. Lets see what we should do next.

What should we do? What else can we do? Mother is already like this, but Eldest Brother is still in the Ministry of Justice. What should we do while things are like this? Third Master Shao had never been responsible. He was the youngest son of Old Madam in the mansion. Although he was disappointed, Old Madam treated him well. Now that he was going to take responsibility, he was in a panic.

Third Madam pressed her chest. She coughed and said in a low voice, Go to the Ministry of Justice to get the Marquis and have him go back to the mansion first.

Yes yes, yes. I need to go get Eldest Brother. Im going to the Ministry of Justice now to get Eldest Brother! Third Master Shaos eyes lit up. He dropped the mess in the room and hurried out.

The rest of the people were all dumbfounded. Third Master Shao left without saying a word. To whom was he going to leave the mess?

Third Aunt, you are not in good health. You should go back first. Third Sister, Fourth Sister, help Third Aunt. Zhao Xiran had to stand up to take charge of the affairs.

Shao Caihuan and Shao Cailing didnt want to stay here for a long time, so they agreed and helped Third Madam leave Chuntang Courtyard.

Second Sister, you should also go back now! Zhao Xiran said to Shao Jieer.

Im not leaving, Sister Zhao.
