Chapter 91

Shi Wanzhen thought of how ruthless Song Shizi was last night. She was overwhelmed with grief and threw herself into the arms of Old Madam Shi. "Mother! I'm scared! I thought I was going to be beaten to death last night...but I still have a pair of children. What should I do?"

Mrs. Shi is also very worried. Now she always wants to discuss it with Tang Chujun and Sister Xia whenever something happens.

Only then did I finally realize that the Shi family was not the one who could make the final decision. There are also clan elders and clan heads there. Once trouble breaks out, who can shoulder this responsibility?

Xia Jie'er... can she really handle this? She is just a little girl, what can she handle?

But no matter what, if you take one step, what's the worst? It was nothing more than that she took out a thousand taels of silver from her private treasury, pushed her daughter back to the uncle's house, and left her to fend for herself. This was the end of the mother-daughter relationship.

Shi Wanzhen just settled in He'an Courtyard. Dr. Shen diagnosed her and she recovered quickly from her injuries.

The end of the month is here in a blink of an eye, and the new year is about to begin.

Shi Anxia was busy and fulfilled all day, and the thoughts in his heart were gradually arranged in an orderly manner.

She personally selected a few maids and women who were quick to handle things, and specially assigned some guards to both Haitang Courtyard and Xiashi Courtyard.

These people were not on the slave register of the Hou Mansion. She had purchased them all with her own money and only reported them to Mrs. Shi.

Mrs. Shi didn't say anything. She hesitated all day about whether to hand over the power of the family. But whether she lets go or not doesn't seem to affect the happy life of the mother and daughter.

At this hour of the day, Shi Anxia had just finished breakfast when Bei Hui came to report in a hurry, "Girl, the big black man and the big black dog are here again."

Shi Anxia thought for a while and stood up, "Then let's take a look."

It had been three or four days. The man and the big black dog who had fainted in the alley earlier found their way to the gate of the Hou Mansion somehow.

The concierge asked him who he was looking for, but he didn't say anything. He just stood under the eaves with one person and one dog. Sometimes I would sit upright on the stone steps in a daze, or occasionally disappear for a while and then come back again.

When the news reached Shi Anxia's ears, he had already been there for two days.

Originally, An Xia didn't intend to have anything to do with this person, let alone repay a favor. But people always stand at the door of the Hou Mansion, which has some influence on the Hou Mansion and herself.

When Shi Anxia stepped out of the threshold and saw the man and the dog, he finally understood why Mr. Bei Hui came to report "the big black man and the big black dog."

The man was really tall. He was standing under the eaves in a ragged black suit, with his body straight and his back wide, which immediately made the eaves appear very low.

When Shi Anxia walked out, one person and one dog all turned back to look at her.

There were wounds on his face, and because his skin was so white, the wounds were particularly obvious. He looked haggard and had some stubble.

His dark hair was fixed with an inconspicuous hairpin. It was probably not taken care of much and looked a little messy.

Even so, Shi Anxia could still tell that this man looked good.

Because the roots of the mountain were so straight, her eyes never moved from the moment she walked out, completely free of the uneasiness and hesitation she felt after being rescued.

Even his gratitude felt oppressive.

Shi Anxia had seen countless people, how could he not know that this person's background must be either rich or noble, otherwise he shouldn't be so magnanimous, and he doesn't know what happened to him to end up in this situation.

She was about to speak when she saw the big black dog rushing towards her.

The concierge was shocked and before he could react, the big black dog pounced at Shi Anxia's feet. Then he rolled over and lay on the ground like a naughty child, with his belly exposed and his limbs flapping happily.

Shi Anxia smiled.

She had raised a dog before and knew that a dog with its legs in the air was a sign of trust, and even a bit coquettish and begging for petting.

She slowly squatted down and touched its belly with her hand, "Why don't you recuperate in the medical center, but you come here to guard it in the heavy wind and snow?"

She spoke to the big black dog, but she asked the big black man.

The big black man's voice was low and indifferent, "It's coming."

The concierge was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. This person is not a mute!
