Chapter 127 Grandmother's Love

Shen Shuyi withdrew his thoughts and his gaze on Pang Xinlian became deeper.

The Qingyuan Marquisate had kept a low profile for many years, avoiding others everywhere and rarely making enemies. In addition to earning some money in a low-key manner, it had never been in anyone's way, so who on earth would be so cruel to such a downtrodden Marquisate?

And that all-important puppet, since it could be hidden in the mansion without being noticed, it must have been done by someone in the mansion.

But, could it be Pang Xinlian?

Shen Shuyi suppressed the doubts in his heart.

She shouldn't have. Regardless of how well her grandmother treated her, although she was not implicated in the execution of her entire family, if something happened in the Marquis' Mansion, she would not have a good life if she returned to the Pang family.

There's no reason for her to do that.

After the meal, Lord Zhao and Zhao Dechuan continued to drink with Shen Jingchuan, while Madam Zhao called Shen Shuyi to her courtyard.

Old Madam Zhao sat in the main seat. After asking everyone to leave, her eyes fell on Shen Shuyi with a gentle look.

"Hurry, come to grandma and let me take a good look at you." Mrs. Zhao's eyes were red and she looked at Shen Shuyi with tears in her eyes.

Different from Zhao Deyue's daughter who always makes her worry, Zhao Derong has always been sensible. Therefore, although Mrs. Zhao loves Pang Xinlian, her feelings towards Shen Shuyi are different.

After all, Zhao Deyue's leaving her parents behind to elope with someone else had already made her disappointed and sad, and then he went to the border with someone else again, abandoning a daughter, which made her even more angry.

And no matter what, Zhao Deyue is still alive. As for whether she lives a good life or not, that is the path she chose herself.

But Zhao Derong was different. Shen Jingchuan was the one they had carefully selected for her as her marriage partner. But they didn't expect that she would have such a miserable life and pass away early, leaving her with the pain of seeing her loved one die before her.

Shen Shuyi obediently walked to the old lady. Old Madam Zhao hugged her in her arms, gently stroked her cheek, her eyes full of tears.

"Like... You look like your mother, but you are more beautiful than your mother." Old Madam Zhao choked up and spoke. Obviously, she thought of her deceased daughter through Shen Shuyi.

Shen Shuyi also carefully looked at the woman in front of him. Madam Zhao was also a beauty, with a round and dignified appearance. To be honest, she was well maintained and looked much younger than the sharp Madam Shen. Shen Shuyi even felt a little incongruous to call her Madam.

Apart from the contrast of her gorgeous clothes and jewelry, there were no wrinkles on her face, only some fine lines at the corners of her eyes. She had a kind and gentle appearance, but when she had a cold face, she looked a bit fierce like the mistress of the house.

Shen Shuyi's almond-shaped eyes were calm, and she said in a gentle voice: "My mother is more gentle and kind than me. I only look like her 60% or 70%."

What Shen Shuyi said was true. Zhao Derong was a likable person, gentle and generous, with both virtue and morality. Although he looked a bit like her, she was covered with hidden fangs and claws. Even if he spent his whole life, he could never be as gentle and peaceful as his mother.

Hearing her mention this, Mrs. Zhao was obviously very happy, and a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.

She wiped it hastily with a handkerchief and asked with a smile, "Do you still remember your mother?"

Shen Shuyi nodded: "Of course, although I may not remember some things, but at least I always remember what my mother looks like."

Old Madam Zhao held her hand tightly and patted it gently: "Good child, good child!"

Old Madam Zhao took Shen Shuyi aside and asked her in detail about her situation over the years, and also asked in detail about Shen Shuhan's recent situation.

When she learned that she had been subjected to all kinds of difficulties in the Jade Buddha Temple over the years and that Shen Shuhan had really become a disabled person, Old Madam Zhao was furious, and her usually kind face was tinged with anger.

"This Qin Xuerong! She is simply a villain who has succeeded. How unreasonable!" Old Madam Zhao almost bit her teeth to pieces, her beautiful eyes turning red with anger.

"Back then, her Qin family was not doing well, and she and your mother pretended to be very close sisters. Who would have thought that she actually had such a vicious heart hidden under that appearance!"

That’s right, if it were someone else, Shen Shuyi would probably not bother to mention his situation in the Jade Buddha Temple over the past few years, nor would he mention too much news about his brother.

But facing Old Madam Zhao, Shen Shuyi did not intend to hide it.

Firstly, she really cared about herself and her brother. Secondly, she had to prepare them so that they would not find it so difficult to accept when they heard in the future that their mother was murdered by Qin Xuerong.

"It's because of your grandmother's lack of ability that you have to suffer so much." Old Madam Zhao stared at her obedient granddaughter with her beautiful eyes, her heart aching.

If she hadn't rescued Bao Kun and Xue Qing a few days ago, she really wouldn't have known that she had suffered so much injustice over the years.

"I have already told your grandfather that he and your uncle will get along well with your father, so that you will have the opportunity to interact with the Marquis' Mansion again in the future." Old Madam Zhao said in a gentle voice.

If it wasn't for Yi Jie'er, given the old man's violent temper, he would have blasted Shen Jingchuan out with a long knife.

"Don't worry, grandma. I will come to see you often in the future."

After hearing what Shen Shuyi said, Madam Zhao felt satisfied, but she also felt extremely guilty for not being able to persist a little longer.

If she had insisted back then, perhaps she would have realized the situation of the two children. Although she couldn't help much, at least...

Old Madam Zhao held Shen Shuyi's hand tightly, as if she had a lot to say, but time was too long and she didn't know where to start.

After a while, Old Madam Zhao called her personal maid in.

"Sister Yi, these are gifts from your grandmother. Qin has seized your mother's dowry. You are short of money, so you should accept these. If you have no money, no one will obey you, and it will be inconvenient for you to do things."

Although they had not met for a long time, Old Madam Zhao knew how powerful Shen Shuyi was from what her grandchildren had heard.

She didn't ask questions about things she didn't understand, she just wanted to make up for what she had owed over the years.

The two maids each held a box and opened the boxes in front of Shen Shuyi.

What came into view were two boxes filled with jewellery that hurt my eyes. There were so many gold, silver, pearls and jade that the boxes were almost full.

Shen Shuyi only took a glance and could tell that these two boxes were not something that could be purchased with the Shen family's wealth.

Compared to the fake items Qin Xuerong gave her and the not-so-top-quality stuff in Old Madam Shen's hands, every item in these two boxes can be said to be a rare treasure.

Not to mention anything else, just the two egg-sized Dongzhu pearls stuffed in the gap are enough to make people unable to take their eyes off.

"Grandma can't give you too much, lest you be seen by Qin's people when you return home and bring you trouble. You can come more often and grandma can bring you some each time, so it won't attract attention." Old Madam Zhao whispered.

Shen Shuyi was speechless for a long time. Even though he had lived two lifetimes, he still felt a sense of unreality as if he was overwhelmed by the silver.

Don't give too much...

So, how much is too much?
