Yinshuang stayed behind to look for the hosta with Ziyu, and Shen Wan randomly pointed out one of the second-class maids to follow her to Qinghui Courtyard to pay her respects.

Shen Wan arrived late, and when she arrived, Shen Ying and the others were all there, chatting and laughing around the old lady, having a good time.

When Shen Wan walked in, Shen Ying said, "Why are you here so late, eldest sister? We have been talking to grandma for a long time."

Shen Wan showed her unhappiness on her face.

The old lady saw it and said, "Why is your face so ugly? Who provoked you?"

Shen Wan said sullenly, "No one bothered me, I just couldn't find anything."

The second wife asked, "What is missing that makes you so angry?"

Shen Wan said, "Prince Ling gave me the hosta yesterday. Just when I was about to wear it, I couldn't find it. I searched for it for a long time and was delayed in coming to pay my respects to my grandmother."

Seeing that Shen Wan was anxious, the fourth wife comforted her and said, "As long as it's in the house, I can't lose it. I can always find it."

Shen Wan nodded lightly, bowed to the old lady, then sat down and listened to the second wife and the third wife discussing the matter of hosting a birthday banquet for the old lady.

It’s the old lady’s birthday in one month, so you have to prepare in advance.

After Shen Wan's mother Yun passed away, Shen Jing had no intention of continuing their relationship. There were only two rooms in the inner house for concubines, and they had nowhere to go. Shen Wan could not see them on a daily basis. There was no mistress in the eldest house, so the old lady in the Hou Mansion had to give in to her. The second wife is in charge, and she usually greets us when we are greeted and dropped off.

Shen Wan listened to their discussion quietly, and they happened to discuss the purchase of camel humps. The third wife said, "Camel humps are not easy to buy, especially if you have to buy so many at once. It seems that we can only ask the Yun family for help..."

Before he finished speaking, Yinshuang walked in quickly from outside and said, "Girl, I found the hosta."

What she held in her hand was the jade lotus hairpin.

Shen Wan couldn't wait to take it, "Fortunately, I didn't lose it."

Shen Ying asked, "Where did you find it?"

Yinshuang stopped talking.

The second wife said coldly, "Don't you know where you found the hosta?!"

When her daughter asked questions, even a maid dared not answer.

The second wife's sharp voice startled Yinshuang, and her voice trembled as she said, "Yes, it was found under the pillow in Mother Wu's room..."

Shen Wan blurted out, "Why did my hosta get under Mother Wu's pillow?"

Can a big girl be any stupider?

It must have been stolen by Mother Wu.

The maid and mother-in-law slandered in her heart.

Yinshuang replied, "The hosta was put into the box by the slave herself, but she couldn't find it. Ziyu suspected that someone had taken it away, so she had everyone search the girl's house yesterday. Then I found the hosta in Wu’s mother’s house…”

Yin Shuang didn't know why her daughter suddenly plotted against Mother Wu, but Mother Wu often bullied the little maids in the yard and deducted their monthly money. Not only Yin Shuang, but also Zi Yu, who was closest to Mother Wu, didn't like her and favored Mother Wu. The old lady gave it to the girl, and everyone dared not speak out.

It would be great if we could drive Mother Wu away.

The second wife said, "Mother Wu was given to the eldest girl by the old lady. She shouldn't be such a dirty person. Is there some misunderstanding in this?"

The person whom the old lady rewarded did something embarrassing, and it was also the old lady's face that was lost. This was to ask her to consider the old lady's face and suppress the matter.

Shen Wan said obediently, "Maybe I was careless. I left the hosta somewhere and let Mother Wu pick it up."

He took a step back, but it was not much different from not taking a step back.

Such a hosta, at first glance, is not something that ordinary people can have. If you find it, you should hand it in instead of keeping it.

The second wife looked at the old lady, and the old lady said angrily, "Where is Mrs. Wu? Bring her here!"

Yin Shuang replied, "Mother Wu left the house early in the morning and hasn't come back yet."

Shen Wan said, "Send someone to wait at the side door. As soon as Mother Wu comes back, she will bring her to Grandma.

After waiting for another two-quarters of an hour, Mother Wu came into the room and said to Shen Wan, "The hosta was obviously given to the slave by the girl! Why did the girl falsely accuse me of stealing it?!"

Shen Wan looked at her, "When did I reward you?"

Mother Wu told the exact time, and then said, "Yin Shuang can bear witness to this slave!"

Yin Shuang said, "What nonsense is Mother Wu talking about? The hosta was given to the girl as a hairpin gift by Prince Ling. How could the girl give the hosta to you?"

Mother Wu was furious. This little bitch usually secretly worked against her, but today he even told lies with his eyes open.

Mother Wu scolded Yin Shuang, who felt extremely wronged. Shen Wan said angrily, "Tell me, Mother Wu, what did you do yesterday to make me happy and reward you with a hosta?"

Mother Wu couldn't help but blush when she thought of how she coaxed the eldest girl to give Dongzhu to the second girl yesterday.

Don't worry, she turned her elbows outward and annoyed the older girl, so the older girl used the hosta to plot against her and get rid of her, a cheater.

Unfortunately, there were only three of them in the room at that time, and there was no one to testify for her.

She was unprepared for a moment and fell into the trap of the eldest girl. She had done this kind of thing before. Why did she make the eldest girl unhappy yesterday?

Mother Wu couldn't understand.

Shen Wan said, "You were given to me by my grandmother. I always trust you and have never treated you badly. If you take other things, I will just turn a blind eye and I may not even notice. You dare to take the hairpin gift that Prince Ling gave me."

How much Shen Wan trusted Mother Wu, and how Mother Wu deceived Shen Wan, not only the old lady knew, but also the people around the old lady.

Therefore, no one suspected that Shen Wan was plotting against Wu's mother.

The old lady had a gloomy look on her face, she slapped the table angrily and said, "You bastard! You stole the master's things and you dare to lie. You will be beaten to death!"

The two wives came over and dragged Mother Wu down. Mother Wu cried out, "Old madam, you have to believe me. I really didn't steal the eldest girl's hosta. She was the one who slandered me!"

The old lady was so angry that she said, "Stop her mouth!"

Soon, Wu's mother's mouth was covered, leaving only whimpering.

Shen Wan looked at the old lady and said, "I don't dare to use Mother Wu anymore, but since she has served me for so many years, she is still dedicated, so don't kill her with a stick, just hit 30 big boards and sell it." Bar."

The old lady said, "She has bullied you, and you still speak for her. It's your grandmother who doesn't know people well, and you have been wronged. Mother Zhou has been with her for decades, and she will take care of you in the future."

He really wanted to have her firmly in his hands. He got rid of Mother Wu and inserted another Mother Zhou.

It's a pity that she is no longer the easy-to-deceive and easily-impressed Miss Shen in her previous life. Shen Yuan shook her head and said, "Grandma loves me. I know that my mother Zhou can stay with her for decades, so she must be used to it. I How can I accept it? There are a few in my yard who are no worse than Mother Wu in doing things, so I can just pick one up and take care of things myself."

The second wife did not expect that Shen Wan would refuse the old lady's arrangement. She smiled and said, "The elder girl is very filial, but she dare not refuse the elder's gift..."

Shen Wan smiled and interrupted the second wife, "As the second aunt said, I will accept Mother Zhou, but I will get married soon. If Mother Zhou follows me to Prince Ling's Mansion, wouldn't it mean that she has to be separated from her two children? ?Grandma just love me a little more and give me all their renouncements."

As soon as Shen Wan said these words, the second wife and the old lady were stunned. They didn't expect that Shen Wan actually knew that he wanted to sell himself.

It was the old lady who kept the fortress, but Shen Wan didn't want it. The second lady also used the gift from the elders to put pressure on her, but Shen Wan really wanted it, but she couldn't help but not give it to the old lady.

But once the deed of betrayal is given, the life and death of Zhou's mother and her children will be decided by Shen Wan from now on. But if the deed of betrayal is not given, it does not mean that the person is really given to Shen Wan.

After receiving the deed of sale, Shen Wanfu thanked her, and then said, "Grandma has been feeling unwell recently. I went to see her."

Looking at Shen Wan's leaving figure, the old lady fiddled with the beads slowly, her eyes dim and unclear.

The big girl seems to be different from before...
