Chapter 177

I didn't expect that this vicious woman would still make some calculations about the dowry after leaving the Marquis' Mansion.

Shen Yun'an's face was gloomy, and his dissatisfaction with Xu Yuan increased.

"Brother Yun'an, do you think Xu Yuan will do something to our Yi'er?"

Seeing that there were only the two of them around, Lu Rou dared to speak out her worries.

"I don't know why during this period, I always have a bad premonition, as if Xu Yuan knows everything, and it seems that she has a backup plan."

Lu Rou touched her chest, "Brother Yun'an, can you find a way to bring Yi'er back."

Shen Yun'an was helpless when he saw this.

He didn't want to bring Yi'er back, but now he only has the identity of a marquis but no real power, and Xu Yuan is behind the Duke's Mansion.

I don't know how she has contact with the queen and the eldest prince. Shen Yun'an felt angry when he thought of this. In the past, he could still use Xu Yuan as the mistress of the mansion to restrain her behavior, but now after the divorce, Xu Yuan's actions are completely beyond his control.

But he can't do anything.

Seeing that Lu Rou was about to continue, Shen Yun'an interrupted, "Okay, I'll find a way to deal with this matter. Mother needs to recuperate during this period. What you need to do now is to take good care of her and don't cause any more trouble."

Shen Yun'an told Lu Rou.

Lu Rou bit her lower lip and heard that Shen Yun'an didn't want to continue talking about this topic, but she felt unwilling to think that the dowry had turned into stone.

"Brother Yun'an, is the matter of the stone just over?"

"Then what do you want?" Shen Yun'an asked.

"Rou'er, you have to know that even if Xu Yuan didn't take the things away after the divorce, they are still hers after all. If things get out of hand, the consequences will only be more serious."

Although Shen Yun'an was angry, he also understood that it was not honorable to take the dowry privately.

"You just need to take care of the mansion and remember what I said. I'm here for other things."

Shen Yun'an said to Lu Rou and turned to leave.

Lu Rou stayed where she was, but her heart was full of unwillingness. Xu Yuan had obviously left the mansion, but Brother Yun'an was still concerned about that bitch.

She would never let Xu Yuan take care of Yier for too long.

In the following days, Lu Rou's place was much quieter, but Chun'er was not going to let it go.

Early in the morning of this day, Chun'er came to Old Lady Shen's room.

"Old Lady, are you feeling better?"

Chun'er stepped forward quickly and asked Old Lady Shen.

When Old Lady Shen saw Chun'er, her face softened, "I'm fine."

"Just have you found out that the dowry has turned into stones? This Xu Yuan is so arrogant."

"The matter of stones..." Hearing what Old Lady Shen said, Chun'er showed an embarrassed expression.

Old Lady Shen quickly realized that something was wrong and asked immediately, "Why did something happen during the time I was unconscious?"

"Old Lady, the Marquis does not allow people in the mansion to mention the matter of stones, but about your poisoning..."

Chun'er spoke intermittently, and it seemed that she had said something wrong, and hurriedly said, "Old Lady, please forgive me, I said too much."

"What poisoning?"

Old Lady Shen looked at her hesitantly.

"Chun'er, please explain clearly."

Old Madam Shen said seriously, and was more certain that something else had happened, and it was even related to her coma this time.

You should know that her coma this time was completely due to Xu Yuan's secret transfer of the dowry to her, but Chun'er's words clearly showed that it was not the case.

"Old Madam, don't you know that Lu Rou secretly replaced your medicinal diet? Although her heart was good and she wanted you to get better, she didn't expect it to collide with the medicinal material you took before, which caused you to be poisoned and comatose."

"There is such a thing!"

Old Madam Shen was obviously shocked, "I said why the medicinal diet was different from before, and it was secretly replaced. This Lu Rou is too bold!"

"But fortunately it was discovered early. I heard from the doctor that if you take it for another month, you may be paralyzed."

Chun'er has been with Old Madam Shen for several years and knows her best.

Especially when it comes to her own safety, Old Madam Shen is particularly cautious.

When Old Lady Shen heard Chun'er's words, her anger increased immediately.

"Someone, go find Lu Rou for me."

She could still tolerate the previous things, but her life was almost ruined by Lu Rou. The more Old Lady Shen thought about it, the more she felt scared.

If she hadn't discovered it in time, wouldn't her life be killed by Lu Rou?

Lu Rou took care of Old Lady Shen for a few days, but she felt uncomfortable all over, especially when she had to go to the old lady's courtyard to pay her respects before dawn every day.

She remembered that when Xu Yuan was still the mistress in the mansion, she had never seen that bitch get up so early to go to the old lady.

Why did she have to do everything when it came to her turn?

But she mentioned these things to Shen Yun'an, and Shen Yun'an used to take her emotions into consideration.

But now Brother Yun'an sees her less often, and even if he does, he looks impatient.

This feeling makes Lu Rou feel extremely panicked.

It would be fine if there were no one else in the mansion, but there is also Chun'er who is against her.

With Chun'er, who was born as a lowly servant, she had to be careful and cautious no matter what she did.

When Lu Rou was dissatisfied with these things, she heard a scolding from outside.

"Lu Rou, come out!"

When she spoke, Madam Shen had already walked in with people.

While Lu Rou was stunned, she saw that the people who came were not only Madam Shen but also Chun'er.

Looking at Madam Shen's unfriendly face, Lu Rou knew without thinking that Chun'er must have said something in front of Madam Shen.

"Madam, do you have any instructions here?"

Even if Lu Rou was dissatisfied with Chun'er, she had to pretend in front of Madam Shen.

"I ask you, what happened to me being poisoned?"

"Lu Rou, you are really brave."

Facing Madam Shen's questioning, Lu Rou panicked immediately. Didn't she tell the people in the mansion not to let Madam Shen know about this.

Even Brother Yun'an acquiesced to this matter. Now there is only one possibility for Madam Shen to know.

It was Chun'er, the bitch, who said something behind her back.

"Chun'er, what do you mean!"

Lu Rou asked Chun'er directly in anger.

Chun'er showed an innocent look, stepped back two steps, and answered Lu Rou with doubt, "Lu Rou, the old lady is asking you a question, why did you ask me first? Do you know that this action is disrespectful to the old lady?"

Chun'er deliberately made the matter more serious. After hearing this, Old Lady Shen saw the unwillingness on Lu Rou's face and angrily scolded, "Lu Rou, kneel down!"

Lu Rou saw that there were maids watching around her, and Chun'er was still here. If she knelt like this, she would definitely be suppressed by Chun'er in the future.
