Speaking of Aunt Fang, Mo Wushuang was surprised by the disgust and disdain that Shen Moyu showed in her words.

"Oh oh, didn't you say that Aunt Fang and her daughter were gentle and kind, and asked me to take care of them more on weekdays? Why do you seem to be disgusted with them now? Could it be that Aunt Fang or Shen Lian'er made you unhappy..."

Before he finished speaking, Mo Wushuang suddenly widened his eyes and said in disbelief, "Wasn't the last time you fell from the rockery an accident?"

Shen Moyu had not expected her mother to think of this so quickly. She nodded in agreement, and Mo Wushuang immediately became furious.

"That little bitch, her methods are so vicious, I won't let her off!"

"Mother, please don't be so angry. It's not time to punish her yet. But mother, don't you suspect that your daughter deliberately framed Shen Lian'er?"

After all, she could see that Mo Wushuang loved Shen Lian'er over the years.

Mo Wushuang raised her hand and tapped Shen Moyu's head. "What nonsense are you talking about? How can a mother doubt her own daughter? I love her because you are my only child. I can't be with you for the rest of your life. It would be great if you had a sister to accompany you."

"Mom, Yoyo won't marry and will stay with you forever, okay?"

"You're just talking nonsense."

Mo Wushuang lightly scratched the tip of Shen Moyou's nose and changed the subject, "You have been targeting that Taoist priest several times just now. Do you have an idea in mind?"

"I plan to wait and see, and then catch the turtle in the jar."

Hearing Shen Moyou's confident tone, Mo Wushuang couldn't help but smile, "Then mother will wait for good news from Yoyo."

"Mom isn't even curious about what I'm going to do, so why are you so relieved?"

"My Yoyo has grown up and become sensible. There is no reason for me to worry."

Shen Moyu felt that her mother seemed a little different from her previous life. Perhaps it was because she was blinded by love at that time and could not distinguish between a good person and a bad person. Naturally, her mother was worried about her, so she always paid attention to every detail.

"Madam, it's rare that the young lady has realized that the mother and daughter in Furong Courtyard have bad intentions. It's time for you to let go of the heavy stone in your heart."

Mother Qi looked at Shen Moyu's back and smiled lovingly. She had watched Shen Moyu grow up, and it was great that the young lady was so sensible now.

Mo Wushuang also felt a little emotional, "Yes, I thought Youyou couldn't see the mother and daughter clearly, and I was distressed for a long time. If Youyou can handle Mrs. Shen's matter this time, I can really rest assured."

……

"Miss, I took the old lady's pulse and asked the people who served her in Rongsheng Hall about her symptoms. Together with the medicine residue found in the small kitchen, I can confirm that the old lady was poisoned by Aconitum. Fortunately, the person who gave her the medicine did not put enough. However, if she takes this dosage for five consecutive days, even a god cannot save her."

As Ji Chun spoke, she took out a wrapped handkerchief from her bosom, which contained some black medicine residue. "The person who poisoned the herb was very smart. He knew to grind the Aconitum into powder, but I still found very tiny fragments in the residue. He was not careful enough."

"Liyue, keep an eye on the small kitchen in Rongsheng Hall these few days. Replace the poison with ordinary tonic for the old lady to take. As for the antidote, Jichun, prepare it for me as soon as possible."

"The Taoist priest and Aunt Fang..."

"Don't worry, Shen Lingfeng will be back in two days. Besides, Ji Chun said that poison will kill people if taken for five consecutive days. It's okay to play along with them."

"Miss……"

Li Yue bit her lip, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Shen Moyou chuckled and said, "Just ask whatever you want to ask."

After hearing what her young lady said, Li Yue no longer hesitated and asked directly, "Why do you call the master by his name? Also, you used to have a good relationship with the old lady, but now you are talking to her as if she were a stranger?"

"Remember this, in the Shen family, my mother is my only relative, understand?"

"understood."

In the past, she was ignorant and could not recognize the people around her. She did not believe that the old lady was completely unaware of the things that Shen Lingfeng and Shen Lian'er did. She probably felt that her maternal family was too kind to them and turned a blind eye to what Shen Lingfeng and Shen Lian'er did.

……

Shen Lian'er really did not disappoint her. She had been "doing her best" to serve the old lady in Rongsheng Hall these past few days, and the Taoist priest had never left for a moment. When Shen Lingfeng and Shen Wanfeng returned from outside the city, the old lady had almost recovered and was able to speak.

"Mother, how are you? How could you be sick out of nowhere?"

Shen Lingfeng was the prime minister of Mingzhen and also a well-known filial son. As soon as he received a letter from home and learned that his mother had suddenly fallen ill, he immediately rushed to the imperial city.

"Lian'er meets father, second uncle."

Shen Lian'er, holding the bowl of medicine in her hand, tactfully stepped aside to make room for the two brothers.

Madam Shen is over sixty years old. Although her face is haggard and sallow, there are not many wrinkles on her face, which shows that she takes good care of herself.

She smiled and spoke weakly, "It's okay, thanks to Lian'er who waited by my side without taking off her clothes. Boss, you have a good daughter."

Shen Lingfeng was naturally happy to hear the old lady say this, "Lian'er, you did very well this time. Your father is very pleased."

Shen Lian'er smiled sweetly and said modestly, "This is what Lian'er should do. As long as grandma is healthy, Lian'er is willing to do anything."

"Master Lingxu has worked hard. I heard that he has been setting up a formation to pray for his mother in Rongsheng Hall these days. I will not treat you unfairly."

Greed flashed across the Taoist's eyes, and then he bowed his head slightly in humility, "I dare not take credit for it. This time, the old lady was able to escape danger, all thanks to the third young lady. If the third young lady can serve her all the time in the future, the old lady will surely live a long life."

Shen Lingfeng did not forget to ask his mother's opinion, "Mom, what do you think?"

"Just arrange it for me. I'm old now, and it would be great if I had a younger person around to talk to."

The implication was that he had no objection. Shen Lingfeng nodded and looked at the obedient concubine's daughter beside him, "Lian'er, from today on, you will move to Rongsheng Hall."

"Yes, father."

"By the way, why don't I see Ning'er and the others?"

Shen Wanfeng looked around but couldn't find his wife, and even his sister-in-law and Youyou were nowhere to be found.

"No...I don't know. I didn't see them when I came here."

Shen Lian'er's words were not a lie. When she arrived at Rongshengtang, everyone was "sent away" by the Taoist priest.

"Humph!"

When Shen Lingfeng heard this, he was so angry that he stormed out. Anyone with eyes could see that he was going to the Rose Courtyard to demand an explanation.

Rose Courtyard.

Li Yue ran in in a panic, "Miss, the master is back, and as soon as he came back he went into the mistress' room very angrily."

"It doesn't matter. Shen Lingfeng has always been a filial son. When he went to Rongsheng Hall and didn't see me and mother, he naturally came to ask."

Shen Moyou held the teacup, the scent of lavender refreshing, she drank slowly and slowly, "Is there any movement from Aunt Fang?"

"I made an appointment with the Taoist priest to meet at three o'clock."

Shen Moyou sneered and said, "Meet at midnight? Haha... It's dark and windy at night, aren't you afraid of bumping into some gods?"
