Chapter 39(1/2)
Zhan’s mother touched Chu Yunning’s heart word by word. She cherished the suffering her mother suffered over the years.
So he said: Mother Zhan, a few days ago, the Queen Mother gave me a top-quality snow lotus, which is a good medicine for health care, and I plan to give it to my grandmother."
When Zhan's mother heard this, she immediately said, "I'll give this item to the old lady for the eldest lady."
"Snow lotus is expensive, I must go and offer it myself."
After moving out the Empress Dowager and Xuelian, Zhan's mother thought about it and changed her face: "The eldest lady is a rare trip back. She should meet the old lady no matter what. I will report back to the old lady now."
Zhan's mother left and came back soon: "The old lady asked the eldest lady to go there."
Chu Yunning nodded lightly, holding a brocade box in his hand, and walked towards the old lady's yard.
Surprisingly, Mrs. Chu was also there. Mrs. Chu stood behind the old lady, and clamped her shoulders skillfully for the old lady.
"You didn't say hello when you came back yesterday. When did you plan to leave?"
Chu Yunning looked at Mrs. Chu with heartache. She probably had Mrs. Chu's anger that was tormented by the old lady.
"Stay for a while, and you haven't decided to leave yet."
Chu Yunning had no good feelings for the old lady in the head, because she was well maintained and properly maintained, and her spirit seemed to be better than Mrs. Chu.
The naked disgust and meanness in the old lady Chu's eyes really makes people unable to get close to her.
"Isn't I going to marry King Xiao back then, but I was driven out in just a few years?"
Old Mrs. Chu snorted coldly and suddenly felt excited: "I was imprisoned for five years. Why did I hit the head to death and leave a good reputation for the Chu family?"
Look, this is what an elder said.
How cold-blooded.
"Mother, please calm down. Ning'er was young and energetic and ignorant at the time, but now she knows that she is wrong."
Mrs. Chu knelt on the cold ground, winked at Chu Yunning, and asked her to apologize.
"Ignorance?" Old Mrs. Chu spat angrily: "It is obvious that you can't teach, so you have raised such a bad thing. How much trouble has it caused to the Chu family over the years?"
Mrs. Chu was scolded so much that she had no power to fight back. Her head became more and more bent, and she murmured with sorry.
Chu Yunning couldn't bear it anymore and rolled his eyes.
"Ning'er, apologize to your grandmother."
Mrs. Chu advised.
Chu Yunning did not think that apologizing would allow Old Lady Chu to accept him.
Such people bully the weak and are afraid of the strong.
"Chu Yunning, the Chu family can only accommodate you for one day. You must leave before this evening!"
Old Mrs. Chu waved her hand and asked Chu Yunning to put down the brocade box and leave quickly.
Chu Yunning walked into Mrs. Chu and helped her stand up slowly.
"What are you going to do!" Old Mrs. Chu was angry.
"Ning'er!"
Chu Yunning suppressed his anger and smiled slightly: "Grandma, I have no plans to leave the Chu family when I come back this time."
"What are you talking nonsense?" Old Mrs. Chu seemed to have heard some huge joke: "I have the final say in the Chu family!"
"Grandmother, the Chu family is my father alone to support the glory of the entire clan. With the Queen Mother's love for me, I can ask the Queen Mother to let the Chu family separate."
Chu Yunning's words were like a landmine, which exploded directly in Old Mrs. Chu's ear.
"Chu Yunning, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Of course I know that I am a married daughter of the Chu family. I have a bad reputation and don't care about one more or one less. I'm afraid that it will affect my married aunt and younger sisters who have not yet married."
Chu Yunning acted like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. Anyway, there were no affected offspring in the big house.
She doesn't have to worry about wearing shoes barefoot, so she doesn't believe that the old lady can do anything.
"Chu Yunning!" Old Mrs. Chu slapped the table suddenly and was very angry: "You dare to threaten me!"
"Mother." As soon as Mrs. Chu spoke, the old lady Chu slapped her hard in the face: "Look at the good daughter you taught, you dare to contradict the elders and be a bad person with you!"
Seeing Mrs. Chu being beaten, Mrs. Chu covered her face and did not dare to speak. It was obvious that she was often beaten.
Chu Yunning felt anger surging inside, and he grabbed Mrs. Chu's wrist and exerted force gently.
Mrs. Chu's eyes fainted.
"mother!"
Old Mrs. Chu said, "It's shameful, it's embarrassing!"
"Bixiu, take my token to invite the imperial physician. You must ask the imperial physician Wen beside the queen mother!"
Bi Xiu turned her head and ran away. Only then did the old lady Chu react and immediately shouted: "Stop her!"
Bixiu's figure was agile and flexible to avoid the person who caught her.
Half an hour later, I successfully invited Doctor Wen.
After checking the pulse, I heard the Imperial Doctor say: "My wife has been suffering from overwork and has been ill after years of fatigue. She is not replenished because she needs to rest. She should not move her breath and get angry."
Old Mrs. Chu hummed, and when she thought that Doctor Wen was the person next to the Empress Dowager, she swallowed the complaints that came to her mouth.
Chu Yunning said, "I heard that the Imperial Doctor doesn't know that my mother gets up early and goes to bed late every day to honor her grandmother. Sometimes she doesn't even have time to eat breakfast, which makes her stomach so hungry and is frightened from time to time."
"Chu Yunning, what are you talking nonsense?" Old Mrs. Chu wanted to tear her mouth apart, and said this in front of outsiders without any hesitation, which made her angry to death.
"Am I wrong?" Chu Yunning looked innocent.
"Of course I'm wrong. Your mother is worried about you, so she falls ill. It's all your fault that you are unfilial daughter who disobeys her everywhere."
Old Mrs. Chu turned the blame and shirked the matter on Chu Yunning.
"Since my grandmother said that, I feel ashamed and plan to stay with my mother's knees to respect and filial piety."
"You!" Old Mrs. Chu suddenly realized that she was led by Chu Yunning to go astray.
Being fooled!
"I heard that the Imperial Doctor, my father was stationed in the border town to help the emperor solve his problems. My mother's longing for her has become sick. It's not too much for me, the only daughter, to be by my side, right?"
Doctor Wen nodded, but instead praised Chu Yunning for his filial piety.
"A married daughter should stay in the royal palace to take care of your husband and children. There are so many people in the Chu family, can no one serve your mother?"
Old Mrs. Chu argued: "You can stay with you these days and go back in two days."
Chu Yunning suddenly smiled: "I'm not at ease when I take care of my mother for so many years, and taking care of my mother's body in this way."
Some people are more well-behaved and sensible, the more they bully you.
Old Mrs. Chu is such a person.
The two faced each other and no one gave in. Old Mrs. Chu held her breath and finally made a compromise. She forced a smile in front of Doctor Wen: "You are filial."
After Doctor Wen prescribed a prescription for Mrs. Chu, he was sent away.
As soon as the person left, the old lady Chu picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it towards Chu Yunning.
Chu Yunning avoided his body, which undoubtedly added to the anger of Old Lady Chu.
"Chu Yunning, what are you going to do!"
"Grandma, I want to accompany my mother. Everyone should settle down and not find fault. Otherwise, I can only send someone to send a letter to my father to let him know what life is now!"
Chu Yunning grabbed the lifeline of the old lady Chu.
Chu’s father is the weakness of the old lady Chu. With Chu’s father here for so many years, the Chu family has been glorious.
Moreover, Chu's father and Mrs. Chu's favor were stronger than Jin. No matter how old Mrs. Chu put pressure on her for so many years, Chu's father never took a concubine again, and only guarded Mrs. Chu.
In this era of three wives and four concubines, Chu's father's move was simply an alternative. Old Mrs. Chu once thought that it was Mrs. Chu who gave Chu's father a fascination, and she had a lot of trouble.
In order to take into account the overall situation, Mrs. Chu didn't say anything if she was bullied, and she would only report good news and not bad news.
"You dare!" Old Mrs. Chu grinned.
Chu Yunning raised his jaw: "Don't challenge my bottom line, I can do anything!"
Old Mrs. Chu was so angry that she couldn't speak, and her hands were trembling at Chu Yunning.
"I am not my mother, I am kind-hearted. Who dares to bully me? I will make everyone unlucky!"
Chu Yunning threw the brocade box in his hand onto the table. It was just an ordinary Salvia miltiorrhiza inside, not a snow lotus at all.
The old lady Chu's face was gloomy. Seeing Chu Yunning leaving with Mrs. Chu, she was so angry that she was so angry: "This evil man, why didn't she strangle her to death!"
Once Chu Yunning was in trouble, no one could do anything to her.
Old Mrs. Chu was really worried that Chu Yunning would do something to harm the Chu family's face, so she told everyone: "Don't provoke her today."
"yes."
Mrs. Chu woke up as soon as she returned to the yard and looked around nervously: "Why am I back? Ning'er, your grandmother didn't blame you, don't worry, if you have your mother here, I will beg your grandmother to let you stay."
