Remarry 9,000 Years Old
Chapter 120: Was my deceased mother ever unfaithful?
Shen Nanqiao was surprised for a moment.
I originally thought that he must be a troublesome person since he entered the palace all night yesterday due to the spy matter, so I had already prepared to return to the princess's mansion at night.
Unexpectedly, he arrived in time.
"If you have something to do, you don't have to make this special trip." Shen Nanqiao put away his gloomy expression. "*** said she would pick me up later. It's the same if I go to her place."
Ning Su pinched her face in front of everyone without any hesitation.
"What use is there to me then?"
As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to Shen Mingde.
Although they have been colleagues for many years, Shen Mingde still has an instinctive fear of him. Every time he looks at someone like this, someone is bound to be in trouble.
As expected, the powerful official spoke slowly.
"I am also a little puzzled. Why is it that every time my wife comes back to her parents' home, there is always something that makes her unhappy?" Ning Su chuckled, "Is it because your family's horoscope conflicts with her? If so, I will not let my wife come back to suffer grievances."
Shen Mingde was already frightened by Shen Nanqiao's calling him "Minister Shen" just now, and now from what Ning Su said, it seemed that he wanted to break off the relationship with him!
Thinking of this, he hurriedly took a few steps forward.
"Don't say that, Mr. Factory. Since Sister Qiao has spoken today, I will send Aunt Xu back to her parents' home. This will solve the problem once and for all, so that she won't be an eyesore."
Shen Nanqiao sneered.
"If it was just now, I would have done this, but Shen Jingyi is ignorant of life and death, so today I will just settle the old and new accounts together. If I don't take her life, I swear I will not be a human being!"
Ning Su was slightly surprised.
Even though someone had stolen her original husband before, the girl was never so angry. What happened?
The old lady was relieved to see Ning Su favoring her granddaughter.
But the more this was the case, the more she couldn't let the young couple be criticized by others, so she nodded slightly towards Ning Su.
"My son-in-law is a reasonable person. Firstly, the New Year is unlucky. Secondly, she is newly married. It is not good for her to get involved in a murder case." She softened her tone and said, "The court still has a law that does not allow the killing of pregnant women. Should we reconsider it?"
At this time, Shen Nanqiao had recovered a little from her anger. She remembered that even the prince had shown mercy because of her pregnancy. If she insisted on doing it openly, she would appear more domineering than the prince and would easily cause trouble for Ning Su.
Besides, Shen Jingyi is already at the end of her strength. There are plenty of ways to torment her. I was really overwhelmed by her vicious words just now.
Think of this.
"Then for the sake of the old lady, I will save her life today." Then he ordered, "Keep these two people under guard and do not allow them to contact the outside world."
The old lady immediately called the palace doctor to take Shen Jingyi's pulse, who only said that she had some miscarriage and it was nothing serious.
Shen Mingde stammered, "If someone asks, what should I say?"
"Who is asking? Why are you asking about a concubine?" Shen Nanqiao's disdain was clearly written on his face. "Even if they really ask, they will say that she embezzled a huge amount of money, which needs to be verified, and she is suspected of murdering the former mistress."
Shen Mingde looked at Shen Jingyi again with trepidation.
"Jingyi is the concubine of Pingyuan Marquis's mansion. She can't stay out all night, right?"
Shen Nanqiao smiled, his eyes gradually becoming meaningful: "No problem, I'll send her back myself."
Ning Su had a clue in his mind, and immediately called two factory guards to take Shen Jingyi away alone.
"Take me to see your boudoir?" He fixed his eyes on Shen Nanqiao's face, "I'm going to pay my respects to my mother-in-law."
Shen Nanqiao's heart moved.
The old lady hurriedly called the maid beside her: "Go and open the small courtyard for the young lady and her husband. I have people clean it every day. It is very clean."
Shen Hong cleared his throat when he heard this.
"I'll take my sister and brother-in-law with me." Seeing everyone looking at him, he added, "It's just on the way."
So he took the key and led Shen Nanqiao and his wife forward.
Ning Su did not shy away when he saw the old lady coming out of her courtyard.
"How did she provoke you today?"
Shen Nanqiao was a little embarrassed to say it. Although they were husband and wife, his deceased mother's reputation was at stake.
And most importantly, what Shen Jingyi just said was not completely groundless.
My deceased mother was a Buddhist and often took her and her sisters to burn incense when they were young. They had indeed been to Longfu Temple several times, and the old lady and Shen Mingde were not there each time.
So when Shen Jingyi opened her mouth just now, for a moment, her intuition told her that what the other party said was true.
But she had some vague memories from her childhood, so she was not sure whether it was true or not.
I just subconsciously felt that even if it was true, it shouldn't become a topic of gossip for Shen Jingyi.
Ning Su waited for a long time, but she didn't speak, so he didn't get anxious. Instead, he deliberately slowed down his pace.
After he had fallen behind Shen Hong for some distance, he asked in a low voice.
"Is it because of your deceased mother?"
Shen Nanqiao was lost in thought when his thoughts were suddenly exposed. He looked up in surprise and met Ning Su's gaze.
"What do you know?" She heard her own voice trembling.
Ning Su paused, and for some reason, glanced at Shen Hong who was walking proudly in front of him, then he looked away.
"That's probably what you want to know."
