Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

After opening the door, a well-dressed middle-aged man was standing at the door, holding a gift box in his hand.

Seeing someone opening the door, he quickly asked politely, "Excuse me, sir, is this the residence of Wei Yanniang's father?"

Shi Zhenxiang was stunned for a moment but still nodded and said, "It is me."

Hearing Shi Zhenxiang say that he was Wei Yanniang's father, the middle-aged man became even more enthusiastic: "Oh, Lord Wei, why is there a sign of Shi Mansion hanging on the door of your mansion? I thought I had come to the wrong place."

What could Shi Zhenxiang say? He could only smile vaguely and get away with it.

"Lord Wei, your daughter is really amazing. She is so young and yet she can work under the Marquis of Zhenguo. I heard that the Marquis of Zhenguo is very popular now. Your daughter is the first person to work under the Marquis of Zhenguo. There are so many people trying to curry favor with your daughter..."

The middle-aged man opened his mouth and began to offer a long list of compliments, but the person he was complimenting was not Shi Zhenxiang, but his daughter Wei Yanniang.

The smiles on Shi Zhenxiang and Wang's faces froze.

After praising for a long time, the middle-aged man finally got to the point: "My daughter has been smart and well-read since she was a child. I wonder if Lord Wei can talk to your daughter and let her study hard under Miss Wei."

Shi Zhenxiang forced a smile on his face: "This is a bit inconvenient. You know that the Marquis of Zhenguo is very popular now, and there are too many people asking for help..."

Before Shi Zhenxiang could refuse, the middle-aged man had already opened the box he was holding with a snap: "Master Wei, don't worry, I know the rules. Here is a 10,000 tael silver note. As long as my daughter can work under your daughter, it doesn't matter what she does."

Shi Zhenxiang was moved.

He had never seen ten thousand taels of silver before.

Shi Zhenxiang couldn't help but stretch out his hand.

As soon as that hand was placed on the box, a cold voice came: "Master Shi, my master has something to say to you."

"Whoosh!"

The middle-aged man holding the box took back his box containing the banknotes.

"What's going on? Why are you Mr. Shi? Shouldn't your last name be Wei?"

"Ah!"

A sneer came from behind.

The middle-aged man turned around and saw a maid, but it was obvious that this maid came from a wealthy family.

The maidservant didn't even look at Shi Zhenxiang: "Master, don't let anyone fool you. But our young lady's surname is Wei, following the surname of the Marquis of Zhenguo, which was given by His Majesty himself. The one you are looking for is not surnamed Wei, but Shi."

Since the maid said so, the middle-aged man had nothing to understand. He either found the wrong person or the father and daughter had a bad relationship.

Legend has it that Wei Yanniang was born in a brothel. If a girl was born in a brothel, it was either because of an accident or because she was sold there by her parents.

I didn't understand the inside story and just barged in.

The middle-aged man couldn't help but spit, put away the box and turned away.

Shi Zhenxiang watched helplessly the ten thousand taels of silver going away from him. He wanted to curse but didn't dare to. He wanted to say something nice but couldn't lower his head.

After a long while, he finally uttered: "What does Yan Niang want to do? I am his father."

The maid smiled softly, her voice was crisp, but the words she said were indeed particularly infuriating: "My Lord said that being reborn as your daughter was the most unfortunate thing that happened to her in her life. If it weren't for the fact that the dead cannot be resurrected, she would have died long ago."

Shi Zhenxiang's face turned red with anger at the maid's words, but he didn't dare to scold his daughter.

Your Majesty has spoken clearly that there is no relationship between them as father and daughter, and that means there is no relationship between them.

Seeing Shi Zhenxiang so angry, the maid continued, "Our master also said that she has nothing to do with you. If you do anything in her name, she will definitely not show mercy. You have to do what you have to do."

"besides····"

The maid gave a final warning: "Our masters don't want to have anything to do with you, please shut up, Master Shi."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away. He walked past the corner and boarded a carriage. Looking at Wei Yanniang, who was wearing an official uniform and sitting in the carriage, he asked in a low voice, "Yanniang, aren't you going to show off in front of your father?"

This little maidservant was originally a girl from a brothel. She had no talent and simply came to serve Yan Niang, so she was quite casual when she spoke.

Wei Yanniang looked at Shi Zhenxiang's disappointed face through the gap in the carriage curtain and said, "I was wrong. I originally wanted to show off in front of my surname Shi and let him see how successful his daughter who he once abandoned is."

"I wanted him to regret, to regret to the point of tearing his heart out, to regret abandoning me, but I just saw someone actually going to give him a gift because of me, so I changed my mind. If I had shown up just now, given Shi's temper, he would have insisted on coming over, and maybe Shi could have gotten some benefits from me, and his newborn children might have used my name to do something."

"I want Mr. Shi to watch me rise step by step, watch me become rich and powerful, while he has nothing to do with it. That way he will really regret it."

"Ah, that's it."

The maid cheered.

"Just to make him regret it."

"let's go!"

The carriage left, but the door of the Shi family was still open.

Shi Zhenxiang's face was still filled with surprise.

Obviously, he didn't expect his daughter to be so heartless.

Zhang knew him well: "Why, do you still want to use your daughter's name to reinstate your official position?"

Shi Zhenxiang replied subconsciously: "Why, is it not possible? She is my daughter, she should listen to me."

Zhang emphasized: "The girl who has a grudge against you, the girl who wishes you death."

Shi Zhenxiang sneered: "The moral and etiquette will force her to deny it. It's a pity that your majesty intervened, otherwise I would be an old man now."

An old man who is a sixth-rank official has a much more leisurely life than being an official himself.

Originally, Shi Zhenxiang wanted to take advantage of his daughter's revenge and create some trouble to force his daughter to recognize him as her biological father.

Even if you admit it reluctantly, you have to admit it.

It's a pity that the daughter has become smart.

Otherwise... But if her father doesn't help, what about her brother? Her brother will be her backbone in the future, so she must help him.

Shi Zhenxiang was thinking about it when he saw his wife coming out with a lot of bags.

Seeing Shi Zhenxiang bowing lightly, he said, "Master, take care of yourself in the future. I am going home with the children. Please give me a letter of divorce."

Shi Zhenxiang's expression immediately turned ugly, "You want a divorce!"

Wang smiled faintly: "Master, for the sake of the children, I will also divorce you and change the children's surname. Master, just think of it as for the children."

Shi Zhenxiang's face became even uglier.

Because what his wife said was the truth, and he knew his own reputation. Now when he went out, everyone who knew him would spit on him.

If these children continue to use my surname, their lives will be ruined.

Shi Zhenxiang lowered his head dejectedly.

"Thank you, sir. I'll leave this house to you."

"Okay, I'll write it now."
