Moreover, at that time only Grand Madam was there, and Nanny Chen was still there with the three of them. At that time, wouldn't Nanny Chen say whatever they wanted to say, so how could everyone believe it?

Lin Shu thought about it, and felt that Lu Jingran's words made sense. She had to think carefully about what to do next.

Thus, she sent a message to the First Madam and followed Lu Jingran back to the National Duke Ning Residence. The Old Ancestor had already sent someone over, as long as Lin Shu was resting well, she would not be too worried.

The Old Ancestor did not know that Lin Shu had gone to the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, but in the recent days, because of the news of the relationship between and the Madam Lian, the entire National Duke Ning Palace had been abuzz with excitement, and even the way the crowd looked at Lin Shu was somewhat different. They did not understand, that the Madam Lian was originally a merchant's daughter, and that marrying into the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion was already a high honor, so why would Lin Pei agree and leave?

But how could the crowd be clear about the ins and outs of this matter?

The Old Ancestor had even never asked Lin Shu a single time. However, Lu Minzhi had always been concerned about that matter, and if shshemet Lin Shu when she went to pay respects to the Old Ancestor with her Rongshou Hall, he would say a few words of respect to her.

If this dog bites you, are you going to bite me back? Right now, she didn't have time to argue with Lu Minzhi.

Young Madam Zhang was extremely busy during this period, probably because of the vacancy in Jin Wu Wei …

Today, as soon as Lin Shu returned to the Banyan Garden, after a quick shower, she fell into a deep sleep while leaning on Lu Jingran's chest.

She dreamed that Princess Changze, wearing a wedding robe, was going to marry his father again. She dreamed of Shao Shengping taking Lin Lian to find her in his previous life, and even more so of that big fire from her previous life …

Lin Shu knew that she was being held back, but everything in the dream was too realistic.

She watched as the flames engulfed her body bit by bit. Her entire body was extremely hot, and no matter how she searched, she couldn't find Lu Jingran anywhere, so why wasn't Lu Jingran coming to save her?

Just as he was looking around, he heard a gentle voice say, "Sister Shu, Sister Shu, what's wrong …"

Lin Shu sat up on the bed with a "Ah" sound, only to see that Lu Jingran was sitting right beside the bed, looking at her with a face full of concern, "Sister Shu, are you alright?"

At this time, not only Lu Jingran was seated in front of her bed, but also Yun Dou and Tian Zhu. She took a glance outside and saw that it was First Madam.

"I'm fine!" Lin Shu shook her head and forced a smile, "First Aunt, why are you here?"

First Madam did not speak.

Lu Jingran stroked the hair beside his ear, brought a cup of tea with the life pearl, and softly said: "Sister Shu, no rush, let's drink some water first!"

He would train every day, and he was really worried about Lin Shu today. He thought that he still had a bunch of things to take care of, but when he just went to the small study room, and he just went to the small study room, Ban Xia heard that the Marquis Lady was here.

Waiting for him to come back and wake Lin Shu up, he realized that Lin Shu was sweating profusely and she looked extremely uncomfortable.

Lin Shu leaned on him and drank two mouthfuls of water, then asked: "What happened?"

Although the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion could not compare to the National Duke Ning Palace's, there were still a lot of trivial matters that were only common to him every day, so how could the First Aunt have the time to come at this time?

First Madam only looked at Lu Jingran.

Lu Jingran nodded his head, he could not hide some things.

First Madam let out a long sigh and said, "Sister Shu, Mother went last night …"

What?

Lin Shu was slightly taken aback, but then she realized that this was also within her expectations. Grand Madam was already old, and with the Imperial Physician previously saying, even if Grand Madam took care of his body well, he would not live past three years.

In the next moment, she also said, "I believe that First Aunt has something else to say to me today?"

If it was just this one matter, First Madam only needed to send a message.

Lu Jingran nodded at the pearl, and the pearl brought all of the servants and wives down the stairs.

Waiting until there were no longer other people in the room, First Madam finally opened her mouth and said, "The reason why I came to find you today is indeed not because of this matter. Ever since you left yesterday, the Green Pine Academy has been in chaos. At that time, not only did we rush over to the main and second houses, even the married Sister Jia, Sister Qian and Sis Hui'er have rushed back."

Back then, your First Aunt and I only surrounded your First Aunt and were busy sending people to the palace to invite the imperial physician, we never thought that your Second Aunt would actually secretly look for your Nanny Chen. Until now, I still don't know what your Second Aunt and your Second Aunt said.

"After the imperial physician arrived, he used acupuncture and ordered people to fry medicine. He busied himself with most of the night, but it was already late at night and your grandmother still couldn't catch her breath …" At that time, your Second Aunt said that you were the one who killed your grandmother, and Sis Hui'er even jumped out to argue with you, and if I did not stop you, I'm afraid your Sis Hui'er would have fallen into an argument with your Second Aunt. "I know we can't rely on Nanny Chen's words, but you did indeed go. That's why your grandmother had a stroke …"

This situation was within Lin Shu's expectations.

Even if this was not her fault, it could still be considered to be caused by her. "Then what did Nanny Chen say?"

As expected of the mother by Grand Madam's side, she truly had the ability to reverse right from wrong like the Grand Madam did!

After hesitating for a while, he said, "I don't know how Nanny Chen said it to your Second Aunt. After your grandmother left yesterday, Nanny Chen fainted when she heard her words, and everything she said was from your Second Aunt's mouth …"

Your grandmother said that she didn't have that much silver in her heart, and wanted you to give her a few days of grace. However, you refused to give her the time limit, and said that if your grandmother couldn't take out the money, she would have to report it to the officials. Your grandmother begged you repeatedly, but your grandmother was not moved, and your grandmother was only momentarily angered.

As she spoke, she glanced at Lin Shu, "Aunt knows that you aren't an ignorant child, so there must be some hidden meaning behind this."

Lin Shu laughed bitterly, and told her the whole story without end. Aunt, you know my character very well, you treat me well, I will definitely return you seventy percent. As for the Grand Madam, I boast that I have already done my best to help them, from the moment I could remember, the Grand Madam had never liked me, and had not even shown any kindness to my mother in all these years. Do you think that I was wrong to ask for silver? If it were you, what would you do? "

Pausing for a moment, she slowly continued: "But it's already too late to say anything now, I'm afraid that no one in the entire Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion does not know that I have caused the death of the Grand Madam. Presumably within three days, the entire capital will be in an uproar!"

What could the First Madam say?

He could only sigh again and again, "You have to come up with a solution to this situation. Are you going to let the crowd criticize you?" Now that you are the daughter-in-law of the National Duke Ning Palace, even if it wasn't for her sake and your mother's sake, the National Duke Ning Palace wouldn't mind … "

She truly cherished Lin Shu, or else she wouldn't have said such words.

Lu Jingran held Lin Shu's hand, and said solemnly: "Aunt, please be at ease, no matter what happens, I will definitely protect Sister Shu."

First Madam nodded her head, looking pleased, "I am relieved now."

Today, the most important thing for her to do was to wake Lin Shu up. Now that the words had been said, it was time for her to leave.

After a long time.

Lin Shu slowly said: "Tell me, did I do wrong?"

She was very upset.

"You're not wrong!" Lu Jingran tightened his grip on her hand, "Sister Shu, you're right!" No matter how wrong the Grand Madam was when he was alive, it was not the time for him to criticize the Grand Madam.

Under Lu Jingran's comforting, Lin Shu once again fell into a deep sleep.

In the evening, Lin Shu became sick, and started babbling nonsense.

Lu Jingran did not even go anywhere and stayed in front of the bed for three days. If there was anything important, he would be in the small study room to take care of it.

In these three days, Madam Lian and Lin Hui had both come to visit her, but Lin Shu only blurrily opened her eyes, and after speaking a few sentences, she fell asleep once again.

It was a good thing that before there was Doctor Fan, he had come to see him, and directly saying that Lin Shu's illness was merely a depression in his heart and that he had caught a cold from the wind, he would be fine after recuperating for half a month.

Only then did Madam Lian relax and return.

On the fourth day, Lin Shu finally felt better, and this time, Lu Jingran was feeding medicine to her, when she heard the voice of the Maid outside, "Elder, Eldest Wife, the ancestor is here to see you."

Just as Lin Shu was about to get up, she saw the Old Ancestor supporting the Nanny Bai in walking in, laughing: "Don't get up, don't get up, you're still sick, I saw that the weather is good these few days, I planned to walk around the flower garden, and I came to look for you as well. I know you always like those flowers, and when I thought about the flowers in the Banyan Garden that have yet to bloom, I had Yugrong and the others bring a few good quality white jade vases from my warehouse.

Lin Shu pursed her lips and laughed, he then looked at Lu Jingran and said: "Many thanks Grandmother, I was talking about this with uncle just now, and planned to send pearls to the flower garden to break some flowers to come here, I didn't expect that when I was talking about this, you would come over."

A few days ago, she could not eat a single bit of food. Only today did she feel that she had an appetite, and only then did she gain a bit of energy.
