Chapter 69: Incomprehensible

Chapter 69: Incomprehensible

Madam Shen sighed. She used to think Xu Yuan was arrogant, but after hearing what Lu Rou said, she suddenly felt that Xu Yuan was not so bad.

At least she managed the house well and would not say disrespectful words to her.

Chun'er quickly returned on Madam Shen's orders.

"How is it, is the Marquis back?"

Madam Shen asked when she saw Chun'er.

"He is back, but the Marquis was drunk and the servant who was waiting outside said that he had fallen asleep."

"Forget it, it's good that he is back." Madam Shen was relieved to hear that Shen Yun'an was back, but Chun'er asked hesitantly, "Madam, do I need to go to Miss Lu in the future?"

"I am worried that Miss Lu will take advantage of the last incident to do something unexpected again."

"She dares!" Madam Shen snorted coldly, full of dissatisfaction with Lu Rou.

"She is going to come to the mansion to take care of me, right? I want to see what she can do."

Chun'er was delighted, and couldn't help but sigh that the lady's idea was really good. Just a few words could make the old lady so resistant to Lu Rou.

The next morning.

Old Madam Shen brought people to Xu Yuan's house.

Cui Liu was most surprised when she saw Old Madam Shen, and asked hesitantly, "Old Madam, why are you here?"

"I came to see my precious grandson."

Old Madam Shen leaned on a cane with one hand, and walked forward with the other hand supported by Chun'er.

Seeing this, Cui Liu did not dare to delay at all and hurriedly went into the house before them to tell Xu Yuan about it.

"Madam, the old lady is here."

Inside the house, Xu Yuan just picked up the child from the cradle and heard Cui Liu's hurried report.

She hummed lightly, without much emotional fluctuation.

You know, in the past, only her mother-in-law could order her to carry the child over, but now she took the initiative to come at dawn, which is enough to prove that Lu Rou's work worked.

People, you just can't compare. In her previous life, Old Lady Shen always compared herself with Lu Rou, and she would not let go of any mistakes she made. But now, once she finds that things are different from what she thought, her attitude changes again.

As she was talking, Old Lady Shen had brought Chun'er in, and when she saw the child in her arms, her face smiled more.

"Xu, give me Yi'er to hold."

Old Lady Shen came to Xu Yuan's side and her tone became gentle.

In this matter, Xu Yuan did not refuse. While holding the child, she asked Old Lady Shen, "Is mother-in-law feeling better?"

Hearing the concern in Xu Yuan's words, Old Lady Shen felt much better.

"It's fine now."

"That's good, thanks to Miss Lu this time."

"It's strange, Miss Lu suddenly appeared here yesterday, and I almost mistook her for a thief with bad intentions."

"There's such a thing?"

Old Lady Shen paused, she didn't expect Lu Rou to be so bold to come here directly.

"That's right, old lady, you don't know. Miss Lu said she went to the wrong place at first, and then she said she was attracted by the voice of the young master. It's really suspicious."

Cui Liu echoed on the side.

Old Lady Shen looked unhappy, and she was dissatisfied with Lu Rou even more. Yun An was also the same. He had always told her not to expose the child swap in front of Xu Yuan, but he was good enough. He not only allowed Lu Rou to enter the mansion but also came to Xu Yuan.

At this time, a report came from outside.

"Madam, old lady, the Marquis is here."

Hearing Shen Yun An coming, Old Lady Shen looked outside, but saw that Shen Yun An was not alone, and Lu Rou was following him.

Lu Rou showed a surprise when she saw the child in Old Lady Shen's arms.

"What a beautiful child." Lu Rou exclaimed, and was about to step forward.

Cui Liu stepped in front of Lu Rou first.

"Miss Lu, what do you want to do?"

The moment she saw Cui Liu, Lu Rou's eyes were gloomy. It was this damned maid again, who always came out to ruin her good deeds.

"Cui Liu, step back."

This time, Shen Yun'an brought Lu Rou to apologize to his mother and visit his son. He was displeased when he saw Cui Liu blocking his way.

But before Xu Yuan could speak, Old Lady Shen said sternly, "Why do you want to get out of the way!"

"Yun'an, do you know where this is? Why let an outsider in?"

Old Lady Shen started to scold Shen Yun'an. She hadn't settled the matter with Lu Rou yesterday, and she dared to appear in front of her.

This was simply a provocation.

Xu Yuan was a noble lady after all, and she didn't dare to do this with such an identity and background. Lu Rou was just a woman who was raised outside, and she dared to be so arrogant.

"Mother, I wanted to come to pay my respects to you, but I learned that you were here with Madam, and I happened to meet Miss Lu who came to visit, so I brought her with me."

Shen Yun'an didn't expect his mother to be angry.

"Visit?"

Old Madam Shen snorted coldly, "Yun'an, are you sure you want me to say it again?"

"I'm in good health now and don't need anyone to visit me."

"If you really care about her kindness, give her some silver to send her off."

Xu Yuan curled her lips and found the scene of the two people arguing ridiculous.

It seems that Lu Rou has completely annoyed her mother-in-law.

She sighed lightly and said in confusion, "Mother-in-law, isn't this Miss Lu your savior?"

"What savior? She just helped me up when she saw me fall down."

"I was accompanied by Chun'er and people from the Marquis' Mansion at the time. An outsider cannot bear the title of savior."

Lu Rou was annoyed when she heard what Old Madam Shen said.

"Madam, how can you say that? I came to visit you because I was worried about your health. Even if I was wrong about what happened yesterday, you can't humiliate me with such words."

"Besides, I just think this child is cute."

"Even if this is the case, what does it have to do with you?"

"It doesn't matter?"

Lu Rou's anger rose. You know, she is the child's biological mother!

But this old lady Shen actually said that it didn't matter to her, and in front of so many people, what else could this be but humiliation?

Shen Yun'an never thought that this would happen.

The scene in front of her was completely beyond her expectations. Her mother was impatient and would probably not care about the consequences once she got angry.

But why was Rou'er the same? Didn't they have already agreed before coming?

Shen Yun'an looked at Lu Rou arguing with her mother and felt strange. He suddenly regretted his decision to bring her into the mansion.

He looked at Xu Yuan again, but saw her standing aside with an intriguing look on her face, and his heart skipped a beat.

Could she have noticed something?

No, if these two people continue to talk, the consequences will be disastrous if they say something.

Thinking of this, Shen Yunan quickly stepped forward and comforted Old Madam Shen, "Mother, please calm down first."

"Someone, please ask Miss Lu to leave for the time being."
