The prince can read minds! I just want to be a princess and have a bad time

The original 'Shen Yu' also often went to the Su Mansion to play when she was a child, but she was too young at that time, and the scenes in her memory were always blurry fragments.

In her memory, there was an elegant old man who always held her gently on his knees and read poems to her in a gentle and magnetic voice. Those words were like a trickle of water, nourishing her young heart.

There was also a young man, sunny and strong, who always lifted her up high and let her fly in the air. At that moment, she seemed to be able to touch the sky. But it was also this man who would be scolded by the old man every time he played with her.

There was also a beautiful woman who always looked at her with a smile and put pieces of specially made snacks into her mouth. Those snacks were sweet but not greasy, fragrant and delicious.

Although these memories are long gone, listening to Aunt Xu talking about the past of the Su Mansion, the feelings suddenly became clear, allowing her to experience the warmth and beauty from her childhood.

Aunt Xu didn't know what she was thinking, so she continued, "Guess what happened. After hearing what I said, the beautiful lady suddenly realized something. From then on, we became friends. She always came to play with me secretly without telling anyone."

Listening to the funny stories of the two's past thefts, and how their mother and her little followers had caused trouble in the Su Mansion, it seemed as if the once cheerful, generous, and carefree girl appeared before her eyes, leaving behind countless laughter in the mansion.

However, when Shen Yu recalled the mother in this body's memory, why was she so different? She was gentle and virtuous, dignified and generous, and her every move revealed the demeanor of a lady from a noble family... When did her mother start to put away her true self and play another role?

Shen Yu directly expressed his doubts, but Aunt Xu remained silent.

Noticing that her breathing rhythm was gradually becoming heavier, Shen Yu knew that she was trying her best to adjust her mood, so he did not urge her, but just sat quietly beside her and started to make tea.

The brewed tea was gently handed to Aunt Xu, but she was still immersed in sorrow and did not notice anything wrong.

Aunt Xu felt as if she had returned to that dark period. The familiar people around her left her one by one. It was not until the cup of hot tea touched her palm that she came to her senses and her cold heart was somewhat comforted. The faint fragrance of tea bloomed on the tip of her tongue, like a spring breeze blowing over withered flowers, bringing a glimmer of vitality and hope.

She finally spoke, her voice trembling slightly, "When I was eight years old, the young lady was only going to follow the lady back to Jiangnan to visit relatives...A few months later, news came that the young lady was going to get married in Jiangnan, marrying a student!!"

Her thoughts seemed to be pulled back to the past, anger and memories intertwined, "Young lady is the daughter of Master Su, and the people in Luocheng who want to marry her are queuing from the palace to the city gate. How could it be the turn of a mere student like Shen Nian!!!" After that, she stared at Shen Yu angrily and said word by word, "Young lady once told me that she would never marry a scholar! Because her family is full of scholars, she is tired of seeing them since she was a child, and she said that she would marry a military commander in the future!"

Shen Yu was also shocked when he heard this. No way? Could it be that there was something behind Shen Nian marrying his mother? Didn't they say that his mother insisted on marrying Shen Nian, so his grandparents had no choice but to agree?

"Young lady, although I don't know what happened in Jiangnan, but when I saw you again five years later, she had... she had completely changed!" Aunt Xu suddenly stood up, holding her belly and about to kneel down. Shen Yu was frightened by her, "What are you doing? Aren't you afraid of hurting the brother or sister in your belly? Sit down quickly!"

Aunt Xu was so upset that she had no time to think about anything else. She seemed to have suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw, holding Shen Yu's sleeves tightly with both hands, her eyes flashing with pleading and anxiety.

"Miss, you must believe me!! Miss, she definitely did not marry Shen Nian willingly! I know, although I have no evidence, but after the young lady returned home that year, although others only thought that she had become more stable after getting married, I could feel that she was not happy. The light in the young lady's eyes was gone!" Her voice was trembling and anxious.

"Young lady, I used to think you didn't care about me, but I couldn't just watch my dowry being wasted by them, and I couldn't watch my daughter being kept in the dark, so I... I got pregnant by accident, believe me, I really didn't mean to compete with you for a husband... Bah! No, he is not worthy of being your husband!"

"That Shen Nian, I wish I could tear him into pieces! Young lady, you have to believe me, we had already sent people to find the midwife who helped you give birth that year, but she fell into the water and drowned the next day. There is definitely something fishy about this matter, they must have killed you, wuwuwu..."

Shen Yu was a little confused by what she said, but she understood the meaning. She still thought of herself as that little maid. The "young lady" she referred to was her mother, so the "young lady" must be herself.

As for what she said about not caring about her mother? It should be referring to the fact that she left Lingzhu Temple six years ago. From Aunt Xu's perspective, after her mother passed away, as a daughter, I not only did not seek justice for her, but chose to leave and hide in the temple for six years. Therefore, she chose to wade into the muddy water of the Shen Mansion herself, right?

Thinking about it this way, it was actually me who indirectly harmed her... But she had no time to care about other things at that time. She had just traveled to the body of a ten-year-old girl, and she was accompanied by a baby who couldn't see the light. She was lucky to be able to protect herself. I can only say that fate played tricks on her...

The concern for her mother revealed in her words didn't sound fake. Just because she dared to marry into the Shen family alone, Shen Yu respected her. She had done much more than his own daughter.

Shen Yu stretched out his hand, hugged her and patted her a few times, saying with concern, "Alas... In order to find the truth for your mother, you actually dared to marry your enemy. Are you stupid... You have worked hard all these years. Your mother would be so sad if she knew. But on second thought... If she knew that by chance, you actually gave birth to a younger brother or sister for me, she would probably be very happy!" Shen Yu said with a smile.

Although I don't agree with her way of ruining her lifelong happiness on a scumbag like Shen Nian, but now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying anything more. I can only try to maximize this result...

Aunt Xu retreated from Shen Yu's arms belatedly and said embarrassedly, "The young lady was very kind to me. She always took me out to play secretly and taught me calligraphy... The six years before she went to Jiangnan were the happiest time of my life. I was willing to do anything for her!"

Seeing that she was still holding her sleeves tightly, as if afraid of losing her support, Shen Yu did not forget the message she had just revealed in her anxiety... She said: us?

"By the way, is there anyone else in the Su Mansion besides you?"
