Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1048 She fell into the trap with her eyes open.

Hearing this, Gao Sheng's wife raised her eyes and glanced at Mr. Shen.

She did not express any opinion on Shen's words.

It was as if she cared about it, but couldn't speak.

In this way, she completely stayed out of the matter, leaving Shen unable to say anything in front of her regarding the matter between Gao and her parents' family.

Shen knew that this was a personal essence.

Of course, he also knew that the wife of a concubine could not affect any decisions of the family.

So Shen's purpose of looking for her was naturally to spread the word.

After a moment of silence, Mrs. Gao Sheng smiled and said, "The Baifu is so understanding and reasonable. Please allow me to express my gratitude to the Baifu on behalf of my sick mother."

Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "Sister-in-law of the Gao family, don't be in a hurry to thank me. I still have something I want to ask sister-in-law of the Gao family for help."

Gao Sheng's wife moved her eyebrows at the corners of her eyes, and finally turned into a soft smile: "I am a soft-spoken person, so I may not be able to help you in any way."

"But don't be polite to me, Madam. If there is anything you need me to do, please feel free to ask. If I can do it, I will do it."

Mrs. Shen showed a grateful smile: "Really, that's really great."

After a pause, she spoke again: "That's right, we would like to ask my brother to escort the third brother and sister when they return home."

"We know that my brother is busy with many things, but we raise this point not to deliberately embarrass him."

"We thought that since Mrs. Gao was so seriously ill, as a son of a human being, my brother must have wanted to fulfill his filial piety at Mrs. Gao's bedside."

"Now that the three siblings have returned to their hometown, and with the excuse of escorting my sister, my brother should be able to drop all his affairs and return to his hometown to visit his mother. Killing two birds with one stone, don't you think?"

When Gao Sheng's wife heard this, her face froze.

Can she still say no?
She couldn't say that she was a legitimate mother, a mother in name and etiquette, but in fact she didn't have deep feelings for her.

So the mother was ill, and it was not the couple's turn to serve the soup.

The couple even secretly rejoiced over this, wishing that the old woman would be happy soon.

But how can this be said?

So she could only respond with a smile: "The White House is still thoughtful. I will discuss this matter with my husband as soon as I get back."

Mrs. Shen immediately took over the words: "What are we discussing here? Since Mrs. Gao is so seriously ill, my brother and sister-in-law must be extremely anxious."

"But since Mrs. Gao became ill, my brother has not gone back to see her. The three siblings who have no reason to marry as wives have gone back to visit, but my brother, who is the son of a human being, is indifferent."

At this point, Gao Sheng's wife was speechless.

Whatever she said seemed to be an excuse.

The situation of a concubine is already sensitive. If there is a rumor about disrespecting the aunt's mother, who will do business with them in the future?

It is totally unacceptable to say that Mrs. Gao's condition is not serious.

How can you trick Mr. Gao into returning to your parents' home like this?

Shen used the word "filial piety" to successfully drag Gao Sheng into trouble.

If what Gao Sheng said was true, then Mrs. Gao had to marry that idiot.

The Gao family must return to the Gao family safely.

The only thing Gao Sheng can do is to escort this sister well.

Otherwise, if something happened to Mr. Gao, he would not be able to explain it to his family.

Gao Sheng's wife naturally knew about Shen's plan, but she couldn't say anything.

I can only apologize and say, "The young lady has misunderstood. My husband is naturally anxious."

Mrs. Shen's smile deepened: "In that case, please ask brother to prepare as soon as possible. Time waits for no one. If the third brother and sister can return to their parents' home earlier, Mrs. Gao can see the third brother and sister earlier."

Gao Sheng's wife responded with a smile: "I will tell my husband when I get back."

Mrs. Shen also took advantage of the situation and tactfully proposed to end today's meeting: "I wanted to keep my sister-in-law here longer to talk, but my sister-in-law should rush back to convey this matter to my brother."

Having said this, Mrs. Shen stood up and said, "I will stay with my sister-in-law soon. When my sister-in-law is free someday, we must sit down and have a good chat." When Mrs. Shen said this, Gao Sheng's wife immediately stood up and left: " Madam, please stay."

Mrs. Shen looked at Qingyun and said, "Help me see off my sister-in-law from the Gao family."

Qingyuan hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way: "Madam, I will see you off."

Mrs. Gao Sheng didn't give Qingyang any response, which showed that she was a little unhappy.

You can't be angry with Mrs. Shen, but you can show your face to the maid, right?

Don't blame her for being angry.

Mrs. Shen first asked about Mrs. Gao's situation.

It was she who answered that she was bedridden.

Then Mrs. Shen once again proposed that Gao Sheng should return to her hometown for a visit, could she still refuse?

She couldn't have imagined that the purpose of Shen's calling her today was not to ask about the marriage.

Instead, he asked his husband to send his sister-in-law back to his hometown.

It's just that she misunderstood other people's intentions. The key is that she still stepped into other people's traps with her eyes open.

Qingyuan saw off Gao Sheng's wife, and Cheng Bi walked out of the back room of Shuixie, Shi Shiran saluted: "My eldest wife."

Shen nodded: "Go tell Mingwei and tell her not to worry, things are going very smoothly here."

Cheng Bi wanted to speak but stopped.

Shen asked: "What's wrong?"

Cheng Bi was careful: "I don't understand, we have enough manpower, why would the young lady involve Gao Sheng?"

Mrs. Shen explained patiently: "Although some people deliberately made the Bai family hateful about this marriage, so they tried their best to promote it."

"But it doesn't mean that there are other people who would be happy for the third brother and sister to remarry someone else. Maybe those people want to attack the third brother and sister on the road."

"Once something happens to the three younger siblings, there will inevitably be a big conflict between the Gaofu and the Baifu. Although the Gaofu cannot affect the Baifu, becoming an enemy will only add trouble to the Baifu."

Cheng Bi seemed to understand: "Gao Sheng may not be able to protect the third young lady well."

Shen continued to explain: "Silly girl, who wants his protection?"

Cheng Bi was even more puzzled: "If you don't need it, why did you let him escort you?"

Mrs. Shen was very patient: "Because, with his escort, no matter what happens to the three siblings on the road, Gao Mansion cannot blame Bai Mansion entirely."

"If after he escorts the third younger brother and sister back, the Gao family immediately forces the third younger brother and sister to leave the Bai Mansion and remarry someone else, then his escort will have ulterior motives."

Cheng Bi suddenly realized: "It turns out that the eldest young lady is using him as a shield. When the time comes, the Gao family will force the third young lady to marry, which will be even more unreasonable."

Mrs. Shen smiled and nodded: "That's it. Go and report back to Mingwei."

Cheng Bi couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "The eldest young lady is really the best among women. What will our young lady do without you?"

Shen poked her head: "You are really good at talking, so you should go back and talk to your lady. Gao Sheng may find excuses not to go, so don't let Gao Sheng succeed."

Cheng Bi smiled and responded: "Yes! I obey!"

Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "Go ahead, go ahead, Miss Six is ​​already waiting outside."

Cheng Bi quietly exited, and sure enough, Bai Xiuying was already waiting outside.

Seeing that Bai Xiuying's sword was not leaving her body, she hurriedly said: "Sixth girl, you can't bring weapons in the post house. I'm afraid your sword will have to be put away."

Bai Xiuying hugged the sword tightly: "That won't work. Without the sword, I won't feel at ease. Just take it off when you get to the door of the post house."

With that said, Bai Xiuying looked at Mrs. Shen in the room: "Sister-in-law, I'm leaving."

Mrs. Shen nodded: "Go early and come back early. I'll wait for you to eat."

Bai Xiuying responded with a smile: "I know."

Farewell to Mr. Shen, the two set off to the posthouse together.
