Remarry 9,000 Years Old

Chapter 135: An Adventure at My Mother's Home at Night

In the capital city, water turned into ice late at night. Shen Nanqiao's mood at that moment was even colder than the weather. He felt almost suffocated.

In her two lives, she had heard many unpleasant words, but the word "bastard" was completely unfamiliar to her.

But think about it carefully, if his mother is dead and his father is unknown, doesn’t that mean he is a bastard?

However, this is not the most shocking thing. The most jaw-dropping thing is that Shen Jingyi guessed that Shen Hong was not his mother's son.

It’s simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!

Why did the mother go to so much trouble to do this? Just as Shen Jingyi said, was it to hide the fact that she was not a member of the Shen family?

It's impossible!

She instinctively refuted it in her heart, but she couldn't find strong evidence for the time being.

Shen Hong is two years younger than her, which means that when her mother was pregnant with Shen Hong, she didn't remember anything yet.

"Are you sure?" The Ninth Princess was obviously shocked by these words. "Mrs. Shen is a famous lady in Da Chu. She definitely shouldn't do such a thing, right?"

Shen Jingyi's eyes fell on the face of the Ninth Princess. She considered for a moment before speaking.

"The princess is also well-known for her gentleness and virtue. Isn't she also doing some unknown things in private?" He immediately made up for it, "I don't mean anything else, but my words are rough but true."

The Ninth Princess was not angry. She chose to ignore it and continued asking.

"Do you have any evidence for what you just said?"

Shen Nanqiao nodded slightly.

"When she was pregnant with her second child, I was already four or five years old, and I already had some memories of some things."

More than just an impression, she was born with this ability, and has been able to observe everything around her from an adult's perspective since she was young.

If she hadn't been hinting and fanning the flames over the years, how could Aunt Xu have gotten to where she is today?

She still remembered that Shen Nanqiao's mother once took her to Longfu Temple to pray for blessings, and she saw with her own eyes that her stepmother, who was known for her virtues, was harassed by a man in the mountains behind the temple.

Although I was far away at the time and couldn't hear clearly what the two were talking about, but from the way they were pulling each other, it seemed that they must have a close relationship.

When her stepmother came back, her eyes were red. She only vaguely remembered that it should be the attire of a military general.

From then on, she became attentive and whenever she observed Shen Nanqiao's mother closely, she always found that she did not look like she was pregnant.

Except for her belly, her limbs were as slender as before, which was not new, after all, there were such examples in her era.

But she used to act coquettishly and hug the other person, and she always felt that the touch of his belly was not right.

I didn't realize he was there at the time, but now that I'm pregnant, I realized that the belly was probably fake.

And the strangest thing is that in the year when she claimed to be pregnant with Shen Hong, Aunt Ma was rarely by her side.

How could a maid who came with the dowry be absent at the critical moment when her mistress was pregnant?

She had also asked this question tentatively at that time, but the answer she got was that Aunt Ma had to take care of Shen Nanqiao.

This makes even less sense.

Shen Nanqiao is the only legitimate daughter of the Shen family. According to the rules, she should have two maids and four servants, not to mention the wet nurse. How come it is the turn of Ma Yi Niang, who has no childbearing experience, to serve her?

Shen Jingyi told the Ninth Princess all her conjectures, and added at the end.

"So I later suspected that Aunt Ma was hiding in the small courtyard at the back waiting to give birth. In addition, my father was sent out during that period, so when he returned home, the child was already born."

The Ninth Princess fell into deep thought.

If Shen Nanqiao's mother passed off a concubine's daughter as a legitimate wife, then the crime would be neither big nor small. If the Shen family insisted on pursuing the matter, it is possible that she would be expelled from the family.

Although the person is already dead, this is one of the seven grounds for divorce. Confusion of bloodline is not a crime that can be easily forgiven at any time.

Once Mrs. Shen is no longer the legitimate wife, Shen Nanqiao will naturally no longer be the legitimate daughter of the Shen family.

How high can the status of a woman who has lost her natal identity be in her husband's family?

Even though Ning Sushang has no parents and cannot be blamed, if she, Shen Nanqiao, has any shame, she would not be embarrassed to move around among the rich families anymore, right?

This news made the Ninth Princess quite excited.

"I know about this matter, and I will ask someone to do it." She looked at Shen Jingyi with a much kinder look in her eyes, "Wait until the news has passed, and take some time to go back to the Shen family and find out the truth from your mother."

Shen Jingyi was eager to hear this and complained immediately.

"My mother has been detained by Shen Nanqiao, who has framed her for embezzlement. I have to trouble Princess Nine to find a way to get her out first."

This matter was not difficult for the Ninth Princess, but she still had to think carefully about whether or not to reach out to someone else's inner house for an uncertain piece of information.

Seeing that the Ninth Princess looked embarrassed, Shen Jingyi continued to increase the stakes.

"If this matter is made public, my mother will be able to become the mistress of the Shen family as the successor. At that time, will Shen Nanqiao be removed from the family tree? Isn't it just a matter of whispering in the pillow?"

Her words hit the Ninth Princess' weak spot precisely.

Wasn't it that she did all these things with such fanfare just to bring Shen Nanqiao down?

"Minister Shen has been confined in his mansion these days, right?" She smiled and returned to her usual gentleness. "When I go to the palace in the next two days, I will find a way to pass on a message to the Queen Mother."

Once Shen Mingde is reinstated, he will naturally be grateful to those who helped him.

In this way, Shen Jingyi and her daughter have an absolute advantage in the Shen family.

"Don't worry, Princess. I won't slack off in my efforts to find evidence."

Shen Jingyi is very clear-headed at critical moments, and she must repay others for their kindness.

The two women exchanged glances and smiled knowingly at each other.

Shen Jingyi suddenly seemed to remember something.

"The news that I was kidnapped will soon spread throughout the city, and Shen Nanqiao will definitely send people to hunt me down throughout the city..."

The Ninth Princess waved her hand nonchalantly.

"It's okay. When I see Uncle Cheng later, I will say hello to him and ask him to let me off the hook."

Shen Jingyi's eyes lit up.

It turns out that the Ninth Princess can have a say in front of Prince Cheng.

If he had the Yanyun Guard to help cover it up, even if the East Depot was mobilized in full force, he could rest easy.

Ning Su looked at the depressed Shen Nanqiao calmly and said comforting words.

"A blessing in disguise. Even if you are not the legitimate daughter of the Shen family as she said, so what?" He reached out and touched Shen Nanqiao's head, "Can't I protect you?"

Shen Nanqiao knew that he meant well, and felt a little warm in his heart. After a slight pause, he suddenly spoke.

"Can you take me to the Shen family?"

"Now?" However, Ning Su's surprise was only fleeting. He didn't even ask why and agreed immediately, "Let's go."

The carriage passed through the streets and alleys, and when it arrived at the Shen Mansion, it was already 3:00 p.m. The lights in the huge mansion were almost all turned off, so it was naturally impossible to go through the main gate at this time.

Ning Su took Shen Nanqiao and quietly climbed over the wall into the backyard. She took him through the rockery with ease and turned straight onto the small path.

"Where are you going now?" Ning Su followed closely, trying not to make any noise.

"Go to Aunt Ma." Shen Nanqiao said without looking back, "She is the only possible insider of the whole thing. I want to find out the truth before Shen Jingyi does."

Because it was Chinese New Year, the lights in the room were off, but the courtyard was still illuminated by large red lanterns hanging high.

However, unexpectedly, the light was still on in Aunt Ma's room.

Shen Nanqiao looked back at Ning Su, who hugged her helplessly and climbed onto the roof in one leap.

When it comes to peeping, it's easy to get used to it the second time.

Shen Nanqiao secretly blamed himself while leaning inside to look.

Late in the night, Aunt Ma was opening boxes and packing something.

Looking closely, I saw her taking out all the jewelry from the jewelry box and packing them up, and then taking out a bag of silver from the bottom of the box.

"Why are you suddenly packing up your gold and silver jewelry so late at night?" Shen Nanqiao turned around in confusion, "Are you going on a long journey?"

But Ning Su chuckled.

"Can't you see that? This is more like absconding from the crime."

Shen Nanqiao frowned.

"She is a daughter of my maternal grandfather. She doesn't even have her indenture in hand. Where can she escape to?"

Ning Su took a deep look inside and said meaningfully.

"If he didn't escape himself, then he must have helped someone else escape, right?"

Before she finished her words, Aunt Ma looked around, and seeing that there was no one around, she carefully opened the shrine.

Shen Nanqiao's eyes widened in surprise.

Because, there was a small secret room behind it.
