Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 117

How can he save face?!

Qin Shaoze, his face flushed with anger, said, "I asked you to come and take care of me because I have a position at the martial arts training ground! I am a man, and I am the one who supports this entire Yongning Marquis's mansion. You want me to abandon my future and stay at home every day, while you, a woman in the inner quarters, are idle and do nothing? What kind of logic is this!"

Just then, Yao Sujuan arrived.

She naturally wanted to add fuel to the fire at such a golden opportunity.

Yao Sujuan, pale and frail, was helped in by a maid.

"My lord, sister Man, please stop arguing. Let me take care of the old lady... cough cough..."

As she spoke, she began to cough weakly.

Qin Shaoze quickly went to help her up: "I know you're sensible, but you're a patient yourself, how can you take care of someone else? You don't need to worry about this, go back and rest."

Liu Manman sneered: "Only you can't see that she's faking illness! She doesn't want to take care of the old lady, so she's pretending to be sick!"

Upon hearing this, Yao Sujuan immediately burst into tears, feeling wronged: "My lord, I didn't..."

Qin Shaoze angrily said to Liu Manman, "What nonsense are you spouting! You yourself are not filial to your mother-in-law, don't assume that everyone else is like you!"

As Old Mrs. Qin watched the three people arguing back and forth in a chaotic and disorderly manner, she felt her head buzzing, the world spinning, and her vision going black.

She was paralyzed and unable to get up. Her son, daughter-in-law, and concubines were all passing the buck, and no one was willing to take care of her!

At that moment, she suddenly missed the old Shen Lingjun terribly.

For the first three years after Shen Lingjun married into the family, he served her wholeheartedly. Whenever she felt unwell, Shen Lingjun would stay by her bedside without changing his clothes, serving her tea and water, without the slightest complaint or impatience.

But now, Shen Lingjun won't even glance at her.

Old Mrs. Qin now deeply regrets letting Liu Manman into the family.

If it weren't for Liu Manman, Shen Lingjun wouldn't have made such a big fuss with them. He would still be the same gentle and virtuous wife he used to be, taking good care of her and making her feel comfortable. How wonderful!

If it were an ordinary elderly woman, she would be disheartened at this point and would probably just let it go. She wouldn't want her younger relatives to take care of her, and it would be better to have servants take care of her than to make such a scene.

However, Old Mrs. Qin was different from everyone else.

Despite her regret, she did not give up on caring for the sick.

Why can't she continue to enjoy the same treatment she used to have?

She would not give up so easily and let Liu Manman go.

She refused to believe that she couldn't handle Liu Manman, this daughter-in-law who was no longer favored!
