Shi Qi also tried to persuade Shi Rou from the side. "Rou'er, your mother dotes on you the most. You're only thinking of bringing your brother over because you want your parents to stay together. Your mother will understand your intentions and won't blame you."
With tears in her eyes, Shi Rou said, "But I'm still scared."
Old Madam Shi said, "What's there to be afraid of? After your mother leaves, you'll be the mistress of the Rong family's household. How did you become so timid?"
Shi Rou sobbed, "Grandmother, I..."
Old Madam Shi said, "Do you want to carry this stain on your reputation and be unable to marry into a titled family? And your grandfather is sick in bed, asking for your brother. You can't be so thoughtless!
We're not monsters. Your brother is my grandson, too. It's not like I'm going to eat him."
Hearing this, Shi Rou could only relent. "Grandmother, don't worry. I'll bring my brother."
