Chapter 352 Rejection, whoever wants to manage this family can do it
"This..." After the poisoning incident, everyone around the princess no longer trusted her.
"It doesn't matter, let her come over and try."
The eldest princess waved her hand and signaled the maid to leave.
Her veil was gently lifted, revealing her injured face, which was painful to look at. Yao Qingnian took out a small jar of transparent ointment and applied it on the princess's face. It was cool and the princess' pain instantly dissipated.
"What is this? It's icy and very comfortable." The pain was relieved a lot, and the princess felt her irritable mood was also much better.
"Princess, this is for anti-inflammatory and analgesic purposes. Don't worry, it is mild and non-irritating." After Yao Qingnian applied the stuff on her face, he gave the rest to the maids and asked them to apply it on the princess' face three times a day. She would naturally heal in a few days.
"I heard that Princess Zi Ning's heart disease was also cured by you?" The eldest princess heard a few days ago that Zi Ning's heart disease was cured, but she didn't believe it. However, after seeing the things and ointments she took out, she believed it a little more.
"There is no cure for heart disease, but it can be controlled. If controlled well, it will not endanger life." Yao Qingnian answered truthfully.
"Is there any way to restore my face?" She touched her face. Although she usually acted like she didn't care, there is no woman in the world who doesn't love beauty.
"Your face is badly injured. It will be difficult to recover with medication alone."
Hearing her say this, a look of disappointment flashed across the eldest princess' face. She had seen all kinds of miracle doctors over the years. If the disease could be cured, it would have been cured long ago. What was she doing? She was still counting on a little girl like her.
"That's all."
“Although medication is difficult, physical therapy can achieve the desired effect.”
"Physical therapy?"
"I'll make arrangements for you after your face has healed. Physical therapy can't get rid of all the problems in one go. I'll make a treatment plan for you based on the situation."
"Is there really a way?" The eldest princess was somewhat delighted. She had never dared to say so confidently that she could remove the scars on her face.
"Yes." Scars more serious than the eldest princess's could be repaired, so he was confident that he could repair the scars on her face.
"Okay! I will trust you once more. If you can heal my face, I will reward you handsomely."
Yao Qingnian and Chen Shuhua chatted with the eldest princess for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.
In the carriage, Chen Shuhua's face was filled with worry. One side was because of Shen Youran, and the other side was because of Yao Qingnian: "Nian'er, are you really sure you can remove the scars on the princess' face? It's not that mother doesn't believe you, but for so many years, I have searched for countless famous doctors in the world, and even Dr. Han couldn't do anything."
"Mom, don't worry! I have my own way." Yao Qingnian assured her that she would not do anything rash.
After returning to the mansion, Shen Wenting and the old lady were waiting in the main hall. They saw the mother and daughter come back, but there was no sign of Shen Youran.
"What's going on? Shuhua, does the princess agree to let Youran go back?" the old lady came forward and asked.
"Madam, the cause of the incident was actually the poison ointment that Youran spent five taels of silver to buy. The eldest princess' face was poisoned and injured. You didn't see how badly her face was injured. Now the eldest princess didn't blame her, but just kept her in the princess's mansion to suffer. It's already merciful, so don't ask any more questions." Chen Shuhua said in a cold voice.
"What? Is it really that serious? This girl is really something. What a show-off. Fortunately, the princess didn't blame her, otherwise the whole Shangshu Mansion would be finished." The old lady also knew the seriousness of the matter. Since she was just going to suffer a little, let her be! Not implicated in the Shangshu Mansion was the best news. Nothing was more important than the reputation of the Shangshu Mansion.
"It's because you didn't give out the dowry. Otherwise, how could Youran do such a stupid thing..." Shen Wenting muttered in a low voice.
"Master Shen, what did you say?" Chen Shuhua glanced at him.
"It's nothing! Madam is still angry with me! It's my fault. I shouldn't blame you without knowing the truth. This time it was the girl Youran who did something wrong. She should just learn the rules in the Princess's Mansion..." Before he could finish his words, Chen Shuhua took Yao Qingsi and left without looking back, leaving him standing there awkwardly.
Hearing that Chen Shuhua didn't even call him "Master" but directly called him "Sir Shen", he felt very uncomfortable. In the past, she always called him "Husband", took care of his daily life, and prepared his favorite meals for him every day regardless of whether he came home or not.
Now he was not allowed to enter the courtyard door, and the Shangshu Mansion was in a mess. He went to court in the morning, but because of time constraints, he did not pay attention. When he got there, he found that his official uniform was wrinkled. His colleagues covered their mouths and laughed at him. After the morning court, he hurried back without stopping and scolded all the servants in the courtyard.
"Wen Ting, don't blame me for being nosy. Shuhua has changed a lot in recent times. If you don't behave yourself, you won't be able to live like this! I'm already old, and not only can I not enjoy a peaceful life, I also have to worry about and take care of the affairs in the mansion for you. Look at what a mess the mansion is in during the time that Youran has been the housekeeper. Listen to me and return the housekeeper power to your wife!" Shen Youran was taken to the Princess's Mansion. There was not even a housekeeper in the mansion now. The old lady hadn't been involved in housekeeping matters for a long time, and she had a headache just by looking at the account book.
Besides, without Chen Shuhua's dowry, the mansion is in a mess and it will be the same no matter who is the housekeeper. At first, they all had their eyes on Chen Shuhua's dowry, thinking that as long as they got the right to be the housekeeper, the dowry would be theirs. Who knew that the stinky girl Shen Nianran actually reported the list of things to the Duke's Mansion? Even if the things are in the warehouse now, they dare not act rashly. If it gets out that she is coveting her daughter-in-law's dowry, where will the old face and the face of the Shangshu Mansion be saved?
Shen Wenting felt that what the old lady said made sense, and the mansion had to be handed over to Chen Shuhua to manage, so he took the account book and the housekeeper's key and went to Chen Shuhua's yard in person.
"Madam, I discussed with my mother that Youran and the others are still young after all, and the mansion cannot do without you. You still have to be the steward of the Shangshu Mansion."
"Master, you've praised me too much. Isn't the housekeeper Youran doing a good job in the mansion? If that doesn't work out, there's still the old lady. You know Jinghong's current situation, and he needs my company. I plan to take him to see a miracle doctor, so let's find someone else to take care of the housekeeper!"
Chen Shuhua directly refused the job of being the housekeeper again. After that, she found that she felt a lot more relaxed and younger. Why should she waste her energy on these unworthy people? Whoever wants to take care of the family can do so.
