Full level Black Heart Lotus, reborn to bully scumbags every day!

"But I secretly walked around the courtyard and ran into the Second Young Master a few times." Jinzhu lowered her voice.

"Shen Jing'an?" Shen Shuyi asked softly.

Jinzhu nodded heavily, with a complicated look in her eyes: "The Second Young Master looks bright and gentle, but he... but..."

Shen Shuyi looked at her: "But what?"

"But I have seen him bullying the young master several times." When Jinzhu mentioned this, her eyes turned red.

Shen Shuyi pursed her lips lightly and said nothing. She just felt that after two lifetimes as a human being, she now really hated those hypocrites who seemed gentle and elegant!

"I saw it from afar. The eldest young master was very thin, and his body...his body looked a little dirty. He was pushed by a servant to bask in the sun in the yard. Then the second young master happened to pass by and not only mocked the eldest young master, but also hit him..."

Hearing this, Shen Shuyi's eyes darkened. She had spent many years investigating the details of her brother's injury in her previous life, but until long after her brother's death, she was still not sure whether what she had found was the whole truth.

Now it seems that no matter why my brother was injured, his life in the past few years has been worse than mine.

Shen Shuyi lowered his eyes to hide the gloom in his eyes.

No matter what, she had to admit that Qin Xuerong was quite capable. She had raised her two sons and two daughters to be outstanding people, while she and her brother were trampled into the mud by her, and she was unwilling to leave them even the slightest chance to survive!

After Shen Shuyi left, Old Madam Sun and her granddaughter-in-law did not stay long.

Old Madam Shen sent Zhang and her group back first, leaving Qin Xuerong behind to give her a few words.

"I know it has not been easy for you these years. Brother Han doesn't mention it now, but Sister Yi is just a girl and can't threaten you. You should pay more attention to your daily affairs and don't let this kind of wicked servant bully his master again."

Old Madam Shen held the teacup and spoke in a deep voice.

Qin Xuerong heard the hidden meaning of Madam Shen's words and quickly responded, "Mother is right. I have been negligent in the past few years. I will make it up to you later."

Seeing that she understood, Old Madam Shen nodded and said, "Sister Yi is a legitimate daughter after all. We can't let her feel disappointed and make others laugh at her."

"Mom is right. I will definitely reflect on this seriously." Qin Xuerong acted humble and ashamed.

Madam Shen waved her hand and said, "Alright, I'm tired too, you go first."

After the group left, Old Lady Shen picked up the Buddhist scripture presented to her by Shen Shuyi and asked gently, "Qiulian, what do you think?"

Qiulian is the head maid who has been with Old Madam Shen for many years. She has never been married and is deeply trusted by the old lady. Now, when others see her, they all call her Aunt Qiulian.

Qiu Lian thought for a moment and whispered, "I feel that the Second Miss is absolutely perfect in both her demeanor and her words and deeds. You can't tell at all that she has been practicing in a Buddhist temple for several years."

Old Madam Shen sighed: "After all, we owe her."

Qiu Lian continued, "But from what I can see, the Second Miss has a calm temperament. Maybe it's due to her years of meditation in the Buddhist temple."

Madam Shen nodded: "She has a good temper. It's hard for her to have such a heart. I will consider her marriage carefully for her later."

Qiulian said again: "You don't have to worry too much. The second young lady is obviously a promising person."

After Qin Xuerong left Jing'an Courtyard, her face darkened.

Not long after walking out, I saw a group of servants sweeping the ground outside the yard.

Large stains of blood were repeatedly washed away by water, and then someone carefully brushed them for a long time before they gradually became clear.

This scene made Nanny Wang, Cuizhu, Hongying and others who were following behind Qin Xuerong turn pale.

Nanny Zhang's body had been dragged away long ago, but no one could relax after seeing this scene.

As soon as she returned to Ruixueyuan, Qin Xuerong swept the tea set on the table to the ground with a slap.

The crackling sound continued.

Qin Xuerong was furious when she thought of Aunt Zhang's death. She looked at Cuizhu and asked coldly, "What did you do?"

Cuizhu knelt on the ground immediately: "Madam, please understand! I did tamper with her shoes, but I don't know how the Second Miss...how could she..."

"According to what you said, you saw a ghost!" Qin Xuerong shouted angrily.

Seeing this, Nanny Wang quickly spoke up: "Madam, calm down. Be careful not to get too angry. In my opinion, Shen Shuyi came prepared. Cuizhu has been with you for many years. It is impossible that she can't do such a small thing. Besides, leaving aside the shoes, the seams inside the clothes are obviously not made by us."

Qin Xuerong was silent for a while, her well-maintained face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but in the end, she calmed down a little.

"I underestimated her. Aunt Zhang died unjustly."

"It's really a pity for Nanny Zhang..." Nanny Wang couldn't help but speak, feeling a little sympathetic.

Qin Xuerong breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, she's right under my nose. I want to see what kind of trouble she can cause."

"Madam, do you have any plans?" asked Nanny Wang.

Qin Xuerong glanced at her and sneered, "Have you forgotten the Buddhist scripture she presented to the old lady?"

Nanny Wang understood immediately: "Madam is talking about her name..."

Qin Xuerong sneered, "How could it be such a coincidence that she got injured at this time? Go, ask Doctor Yin to take a good look at her injuries, and don't say that I, her stepmother, have treated her harshly."

"Slave, let's do it now."

After Cuizhu responded, Qin Xuerong thought of the miserable death of Nanny Zhang. After a while, she let out a breath and said, "Give her a proper burial and give her family a reward. It will be worth it that she kept her mouth shut until her death."

Nanny Wang responded, "Yes."

After she finished speaking, Qin Xuerong glanced at Hongying, who was standing beside her with a restless look on her face. Knowing that she was Nanny Zhang's niece, she immediately softened a little.

"It has not been easy for you to keep an eye on Shen Shuyi these past few years. For the sake of Aunt Zhang, I will not treat you harshly as long as you work hard in the future."

Hongying came back to her senses and knelt on the ground with tears and snot: "Thank you, ma'am! Thank you, ma'am!"

Qin Xuerong waved her hand and let her retreat.

Just at this moment, Shen Jingzhen pushed the door open and said dissatisfiedly: "Mom, do you really want to compensate Shen Shuyi for all the monthly salary and share of these years?"

The monthly salary of the eldest daughter of the Minister's Mansion is five taels, which is more than two hundred taels in four years. In addition, she needs three sets of clothes, three pairs of shoes, and two sets of headgear every quarter. I don't know how much silver it will cost!

Qin Xuerong said quietly, "With so many eyes watching, it's natural to make up for it."

There was more resentment in Shen Jingzhen's eyes. The share of the eldest daughter in the mansion was limited. In the past few years, many of Shen Shuyi's things fell on her and her elder sister. She didn't expect that she would have the courage to ask for them back!

"I don't care. I've already used up what was given to me. Don't even think about asking me to take it out again."
