The daily life of a concubine's daughter

Shi Mingkui became a eunuch.

Shannai followed the seventh brother Shi Mingchen to the Shi family's convoy.

When she passed by Shi Mingwei's coffin, she shuddered suddenly.

For some reason, it seemed as if Shi Mingwei was sitting on the coffin, staring at her coldly, making her feel cold from head to toe.

She thought silently that Shi Mingwei had ruined her life and the lives of countless other girls. It was against the will of heaven and he deserved to die.

His death is the only justice in this world.

Thinking of this, the coldness in my body disappeared.

She first paid her respects to Le An Ning.

Le An Ning was surprised for a moment, and asked the doctor in the caravan to check her pulse. It turned out that she was indeed pregnant, so he nodded and took her to see the Duke of Zhenguo:

"This child is the orphan of the Second Master and cannot be left alone. Don't worry, after you meet the Duke, I will propose you as his concubine."

Shannai didn't dare to say that she was not pregnant.

Otherwise, her motive for pursuing Shi's family would not be justifiable, so she could only agree to it and live one day at a time.

However, Le An Ning's willingness to accept her kind attitude made her inexplicably uneasy.

She couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Second Grandma angry?"

Le An Ning tilted his head and asked, "What are you angry about?"

"I have the second master's child."

"Why should you be angry? This is a good thing. I am the child's legal mother. You can rest assured that the Second Master can have a posthumous child. I am happier than anyone else."

After Le Anning said this, he glanced at Shannai implicitly, gratefully, and sympathetically.

Shannai, the maid, was really unlucky. First, she was treated badly by Shi Yao, and then her innocence was ruined by the gangsters instigated by that bastard Shi Mingwei. She was thrown into that cruel farm, and then she was picked out by Wang Fan for revenge, and was tortured by Shi Mingwei for a long time.

Fortunately, she was decisive enough and cooperated with the eunuch Shi Mingkui to kill Shi Mingwei.

Even if Shannai didn't kill him, one day, she would take it upon herself to be a widow.

Shanna did for her what she had always wanted to do.

Now that she has Shi Mingwei's child, she will protect Shannai and Shannai's child in the future.

The two met the Duke of Zhenguo, and Le Anning told him the whole story.

The Duke of Zhenguo was indeed an old and cunning man. He suspected Shannai and questioned him carefully, staring at Shannai's expression carefully.

Shannai was very nervous and sweat broke out on his forehead.

She did not mention a single word about Shi Mingwei's abuse of her, but only said how much Shi Mingwei doted on her. Anyway, the maids and servants who had served her and Shi Mingwei had long been sent away.

"... Duke, I am not greedy for fame and wealth, but the one in my belly is Second Master's child. I really can't bear to see him have an unknown father and be called a bastard..."

Although he said so, the Duke of Zhenguo certainly believed that she was chasing him because she was greedy for fame and fortune.

Shannai didn't care what he thought of her, because she would live with the second grandmother from now on anyway.

Le An Ning sobbed and said, "Duke, this is Second Master's posthumous child, and I am his mother. No matter what, this maidservant is destined to be my wife.

I knew about Shannai's matter a long time ago, but the Second Master didn't bring her to the mansion. I am always jealous, so I just pretended not to see it.

The Second Master is gone, so I can’t be jealous anymore. I just hope that Yi Ge’er and his two brothers will have more brothers, so that when they grow up, they will have more people to help them.”

So Shannai offered tea to the mistress and stayed.

Of course, the Duke of Zhenguo did not completely dispel his doubts.

That night, Shi Mingchen's servant said that the second brother was protecting the woman behind him, so the second brother must like that woman, have a close relationship with her, and trust her very much.

Shannai just happens to meet the requirements.

If Shi Mingkui took advantage of these points, bribed Shannai, brought Shannai into the mansion, took the opportunity to kill the second brother, and then sent Shannai out of the mansion, it would make sense.

Sending Shannai out of the house caused quite a stir, and the third brother Shi Mingzhen must have known about it.

Shi Mingchen's servant is still alive and is in the convoy.

The Duke of Zhenguo pursed his lips tightly, secretly called the boy over, and asked him to listen to Shannai's voice.

After hearing this, the servant came back, trembling like a sieve: "My Lord, Shannai is not the woman from that night. I have seen Shannai before. If it was her, I would have recognized her voice that night."

The Duke of Zhenguo looked stern: "Then why are you shaking?"

The servant was so anxious that he was sweating. "I am afraid of the Duke's majesty."

The Duke of Zhenguo did not dispel his suspicion, but instead increased it. He waved his hand and asked the servant to go back, knowing that the servant was a servant of the third house, and even if he recognized the woman's voice, he would not tell him the truth.

Both the second and third wives wanted to treat Shi Mingwei's death as an accident.

"Shi Mingkui, don't think I will let you go just because you escape to the palace and become a eunuch!"

The Duke of Zhenguo has decided that no matter whether Shannai is the murderer or not, he must kill the mother and save the son. He would rather kill the innocent than let him go.

Doesn’t the second brother like her?

It’s a good opportunity for her to go down and serve the second one.

Then he will be buried next to the second brother’s grave.

Shannai was pregnant and had a simple carriage to herself.

She was afraid of exposing her true identity, so she stayed at home and rarely went out.

Occasionally, when she met the Duke of Zhenguo at dinner, she could not help but feel terrified when she met his gaze as if he was looking at a dead person.

Second Mistress came to comfort her: "You are also suspicious, right? The Duke suspects that you killed Shi Mingwei? Don't worry, the servant of the Seventh Master said that the woman that night had a different voice from yours."

Then, Le Anning recounted the story of Shi Mingwei's death, including the clues the Shi family had.

Shannai smiled numbly, scared to the point of wanting to cry.

Fortunately, when she spoke that night, her voice was coquettish, different from usual.

They traveled in fear all the way, and when they were about to reach Nanjing, the Duke of Zhenguo suddenly died in public!

While Shannai breathed a sigh of relief, he also knew that Crown Prince Shi Mingwu would definitely continue to investigate him.

Unexpectedly, after just a few days of tension, Shi Mingwu fell ill as soon as he arrived in Nanjing. He was then escorted to Beijing and died on the way!

As soon as the Duke and the Crown Prince died, the eldest grandmother returned to Nanjing and immediately sold many servants on the pretext that the Shi family needed to stay out of the spotlight.

Those who investigated Shi Mingwei's case returned their indentures to them and ordered them to find a way to make a living outside.

Before Shannai could breathe a sigh of relief, she suddenly couldn't hide her pregnancy anymore!

The last glimmer of hope was shattered. After four or five months, her belly showed no change. Instead, she ate well and was full every day, and her face became rounder, but no one noticed anything at first.

Shi Mingkui, that damn eunuch, actually drugged her and tricked her into thinking she was pregnant!

Shannai was in tears.

That day, Le An Ning invited a doctor to check Shan Nai's pulse and said with a smile: "This old doctor is a famous doctor in Jinling. He is best at treating pregnant women. I'll check your pulse."

Shannet wants to die.

I finally have a stable and good life, but it’s gone in the blink of an eye.

She knelt on the ground, tears in her eyes: "Second Madam, I have something to say to you."
