Chapter 230: Disagreement On Who To Set Out

“That’s right, that’s right! Young Mistress is right! Young Master has been in good health ever since he was young. He will definitely be fine!” Nanny Li said as she held back her tears.

“That’s right, Aunt Wang. Big Cousin will definitely regain consciousness! You can rest assured!” Gu Fangzi cried again.

Wang Shi let out a long sigh. She held back her tears as she looked at Sang Wan and nodded her head slightly.

“Sister-in-law! Is it true that something happened to Fengju? What exactly happened!” Soon after, Second Old Master Shi and his wife, as well as Third Old Master Shi and his wife arrived one after another.

When Wang Shi saw them, she could not help but feel heart-broken again. How would she still have the energy to explain to them? Sang Wan, Nanny Jiang, and the rest hurriedly comforted her again as they explained what had happened briefly.

When Second Old Mistress Shi heard the news that her son was fine, she felt great joy but kept her eyes low and her joy under control after being made aware of the situation. At the same time, Third Old Mistress Shi and others went to console Wang Shi.

“Sister-in-law, don’t worry. From the looks of it, Shi Fengju is in good hands since that physician knows medicine as well as acupuncture. Fengju will definitely be fine. We encountered a similar situation in Sichuan previously. Someone woke up after being unconscious for more than half a month and he was in his usual good health. Fengju is in a similar situation, so I’m sure he will definitely regain consciousness!” Third Old Master Shi quickly added.

“That’s right, that’s right. My husband is right! I remember that as well. That man’s situation was similar to Fengju!” Third Old Mistress Shi hurriedly spoke.

“Is that true?” Wang Shi’s eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked. Sang Wan, Nanny Li, Gu Fangzi, and the others looked at Third Old Master Shi and his wife at the same time, almost as if it was finally affirmed that Shi Fengju would regain consciousness.

“Of course it’s true!” Third Old Master Shi and his wife nodded.

“Sister-in-law, I think we should send someone appropriate to take care of Fengju. That person will decide on our behalf if anything happens there! How can he only have servants there with him!” Third Old Master Shi suggested.

After Wang Shi heard that, she slowly nodded her head. Zhan Huan must have come back with this intention. Moreover, she did not feel at ease when there were no close relatives beside him. If not for the long journey that would tire her body, she would have gone there personally.

Both Second Old Mistress Shi and Third Old Mistress Shi were naturally not suitable. Second Old Master Shi only cared about his birds and fish, so he was unreliable. Therefore, Third Old Master Shi was clearly the most suitable. However, he was the one who suggested it and did not volunteer himself. In any case, if he had volunteered himself, would he do his best to nurse Shi Fengju back to health over there?

Wang Shi was hesitant and unsettled. Gu Fangzi quickly got up and kneeled again before saying, “Aunt Wang, please let me go! I’m willing to take care of Big Cousin! Aunt Wang, you don’t have to worry. I will bring him back in good health!”

“Mother!” Sang Wan also kneeled and said, “Mother, let me go! He is my husband. Now that something like this has happened to him, if I’m not by his side as his wife, it’ll be hard for me to feel at ease. Mother, please let me go!”

Sang Wan was silently upset that she was a step slower than Gu Fangzi. As such, she had to put in a lot of effort in her words. Ever since it was decided that one Master should head over there, she already had the intention. Who knew that just when she was hesitating on how she should go about requesting, Gu Fangzi had spoken first.

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Upon seeing that the two of them had her son in their hearts, Wang Shi was gratified. However, she felt she was put in a difficult situation as well.

“Sister Sang Wan.” Gu Fangzi said, “Since this household is taken care of by you, how can you leave? It’s better for me to go! Don’t worry. I’ll definitely take good care of Big Cousin!”

“There is still Mother and the rest who can take care of the household. I’ve always been taking care of Young Master. It’ll naturally be more convenient for me to go instead of you! Mother, let me go. Otherwise, how can I be at ease! Mother, please let me go!”

“Young Mistress is right. Since she has the heart, you should let her go! I can help to handle the matters in the household. Young Mistress has always taken care of Young Master’s daily life and knows what he wants. Nobody is more suitable than her to take care of him!” Nanny Li spoke in support of her.

When Zhan Huan heard Gu Fangzi say she would go over, his head went numb and silently complained. She had scolded him in the face just now. If she went over with him, he might get scolded even worse! Therefore, he stepped forward and cupped both his hands before saying, “Old Mistress, I don’t have the place to speak. However, I have been by Young Master’s side for a very long time. I know that he often misses Young Mistress so he will definitely want her to take care of him!”

“How dare a servant like you speak when you know there is no place for you! Don’t forget that you’re guilty. What right do you have to speak!” Gu Fangzi was furious. She hadn’t expected that even though she took the initiative, Sang Wan was still so thick-skinned as to request the same. As for Nanny Li, she had always been on Sang Wan’s side, so it was not strange that she spoke up for her!

There was nothing she could do against both of them. However, if Zhan Huan also chipped in and she did not speak up, then there would no longer be a place for her in the household.

After being scolded, Zhan Huan quickly lowered his head and did not dare to say anything more.

“Sister Sang Wan.” Gu Fangzi’s tears slowly came rolling down her pale face. Her eyes were teary as she begged Sang Wan with a pathetic look, “Do you have to fight over this with me? Please let me go instead! I beg you! Let me take care of Big Cousin!”
