The main hall of Lingfeng Pavilion.

Shen Qingyin looked at the old lady coldly.

"Grandma, why did you make such a fuss today? If it's for father, then you don't have to speak up. I won't ask the Su family for you. I don't have the face to do so, and I won't let you bother them."

"As for the death-free gold medal of the General's Mansion, it was earned by two generations of the General's Mansion with their blood, lives, and loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. They sacrificed their lives and shed their blood, not to save a person who wantonly harmed the people."

"I wonder if I'm clear enough to say this? And if Grandmother understands me, too?"

Shen Qingyin spoke decisively, directly cutting off all possible thoughts of the old lady.

Unexpectedly, the old lady changed her demeanor outside the gate of Bixiyuan. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she lowered her voice:

"Grandma knows...Grandma understands...You are right. Grandma just can't bear to part with your father. After all, he is my son. How can I not feel heartbroken...Don't blame Grandma..."

Seeing Shen Qingyin looking at her without saying anything, she continued to mutter:

"It's all Grandma's fault. I won't force you anymore..."

Shen Qing pursed her lips at the fan behind her and let out a sigh of relief.

It seemed that the old lady knew it was useless to make a fuss, so she finally stopped.

But the next moment, the old lady said, "It's just that grandma had a quarrel with your mother and Du today, and she doesn't want to go back to the Shen family for a while. Can you take grandma in for two or three days?"

Shen Qingyin sneered in his heart.

I knew the old lady wouldn't give up so easily.

It's obvious that he still won't give up!

The old lady clearly had other intentions, so Shen Qingyin naturally refused to give in easily.

She walked to the door and called Yun Wei over, whispering, "Go check at the door..."

Then she turned around and said to the old lady with a half-smile: "Why, grandma, are you afraid of Mrs. Du? This is strange. Even if you two are quarreling, you are the mother-in-law, and Mrs. Du should be afraid of you!"

The old lady opened her mouth and said, "Who, who said I was afraid of her?"

The last thing she wanted to admit was that she was afraid of Mrs. Du.

"Grandma, there's no need to hide it. If I wasn't afraid of her, why would I be kicked out of the house by her?" Shen Qingyin's face showed a trace of anger.

"This Du family is too outrageous. How can a daughter-in-law treat her mother-in-law like this? But please rest assured, grandma. I will ask Yun Wei and Yun Chan to escort you back later. Let's see if Du dares to say no!"

Shen Qingyin became more and more irritated as he spoke, and suddenly slammed the small table next to him.

The old lady was startled and immediately stood up from her chair.

But soon, she squeezed out two lines of tears.

"Actually, the quarrel with Mrs. Du is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that when I see the courtyard of the Shen family, I will think of your father. When I think of your father, I can't breathe... That's why I want to stay in Bixiyuan for two days."

"Yin'er, I am your grandmother after all. Don't you think you would refuse to let me stay here for two days?"

The old lady looked so pitiful that Faner frowned.

The old lady performed really well. It was such a loss to the troupe that I didn’t go with her!

Shen Qingyin stood up and was about to insist on having the old lady sent back, but he saw Yun Wei coming back.

"Madam, those people at the door haven't left yet, they are still waiting outside... There are even people outside the side door..." Yun Wei whispered in Shen Qingyin's ear.

Shen Qingyin frowned slightly.

If the group of people outside didn't leave, it would be impossible to force the old lady out.

It seems that I underestimated the old lady today.

To have calculated to such an extent...

Looking at the old lady who was still begging, Shen Qingyin waved his hand: "Forget it, since grandma doesn't want to go back to the Shen family, then stay here for two days."

She turned her head to Fan'er and said, "Go and make arrangements and prepare a room for grandma in Lingfeng Pavilion."

Since the old lady insists on staying here, I'll just keep her under my nose and see what she wants to do.

"How about I just go and live in the guest courtyard? Lingfeng Pavilion is the main courtyard, it's not suitable for me to live there..." said the old lady.

Fan'er couldn't help but say, "Old lady, you are a guest, so just follow Madam's arrangements."

The old lady's intentions are so obvious.

Do you think you can't guess what she's planning?

Feng Yunmo lives in the guest houses on the east and west sides of Bixiyuan. He doesn't like being disturbed, and even the maids are not allowed to go there easily. The old lady knew this when she was here.

On the other side, lived Su Wenjin's family.

The old lady obviously still refused to give up and wanted to plead with Su Wenjin's family, asking them to withdraw the lawsuit!

Shen Qingyin also frowned.

She said bluntly: "Grandma, there is no place for you to live in the guest house now."

"Well, okay, then we'll live in Lingfeng Pavilion..." The old lady looked extremely reluctant and helpless.

The old lady followed Fan'er out, and Shen Qingyin instructed Yun Wei and Yun Chan: "You two go and serve the old lady in person, and send someone back to tell the lady that I will stay in Bixiyuan tonight."

The old lady is here and she is reluctant to leave.

Yun Wei and Yun Chan immediately understood what Shen Qingyin meant.

To serve, they have to stay by the old lady's side and go wherever she goes.

"Madam, rest assured. The two of us will serve the old lady wholeheartedly. Even if the old lady goes to the toilet, we will follow her."

Shen Qingyin nodded with satisfaction, and the two turned and went to the old lady's room.

As night fell, the entire Bixi Garden gradually became quiet. Except for a few guards patrolling the yard, everyone else had fallen asleep.

Only Shen Qingyin was still flipping through a book beside the couch.

"Madam, it's getting late, you should go to bed too!" Faner came over and said softly.

"Have they sent more people to Zhen'er's courtyard?" Shen Qingyin put down the book in his hand.

"Don't worry, Madam. We have arranged for more than a dozen guards to guard outside their yard. The old lady is alone, and no matter how hard she tries, she can't get in. What's more, Yun Wei and Yun Chan are personally guarding the old lady's room, so she can't cause any trouble if she is left alone."

Shen Qingyin nodded slightly: "Wait until dawn, and immediately send someone to send the old lady back. Also, have someone guard the 500 steps in front of the door, and don't let the old lady come to Bixiyuan again."

"Yes, Madam, don't worry. Don't think of getting close to our Bixiyuan again in the future. You should just rest quickly."

Seeing that Fan'er was getting sleepy and yawning continuously, Shen Qingyin lay down with his clothes on.

"You should go and rest too."

I don’t know how long it had been, but when Shen Qingyin seemed to be half asleep, there was suddenly a noise outside the door.

"Oh no! There's a fire! Help! There's a fire!"

Then someone rushed in and said, "Madam, madam, wake up!"
