Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

Shen Zongyuan didn't get any good results from Shen Nanyue, but he calmed down and followed Aunt Su back to the yard. When Mrs. Lu heard that Shen Zongyuan went to Aunt Su's yard, she was so angry that she slapped the maid.

Her daughter was beaten, and Shen Zongyuan had left the house in a rage, but now he did nothing. Instead, he was making love with Aunt Su. So Lu wrote a letter and had someone send it to her brother overnight. Since Shen Zongyuan could not make the decision for her daughter, she could not count on him.

But who knew that when Lu Senquan saw that it was Princess Chunxi, he immediately replied to the letter, and in the letter he bluntly advised Lu not to pursue the matter any further. Princess Chunxi did not follow the rules at all. Prince Xing loved his daughter like his life, not to mention that she was doted on by the emperor. Lu and Shen Lingxi could only swallow their anger and wait for another opportunity.

Upon hearing the news, Shen Lingxi cried all night, and asked Mrs. Lu to suppress the matter and not let anyone spread it out, otherwise she would become a laughing stock when she went out in the future.

After Shen Nanyan took the medicine properly, her health began to improve. However, after the wound scabbed over, she always felt itchy and couldn't help but reach out to scratch it secretly. So Aunt Su stayed with her all day and all night, fearing that the wound would split again. In addition to going to the military camp for training every day, Shen Yunzhi would also bring back a lot of small things to make Shen Nanyan happy, and she lived a comfortable life.

As her injuries gradually recovered, Shen Nanyan also began to continue detoxifying the old lady. Of course, every time she went, she asked Aunt Su to support her. The old lady felt sorry for her granddaughter and scolded herself at the same time. Shen Nanyan always comforted her softly, never missing a day. The old lady liked Aunt Su and her daughter even more.

One day, Shen Nanyan finished dialysis for the old lady. After the old lady woke up, she asked Nanny Yin to send Shen Nanyan back and left only Aunt Su in the room. Aunt Su naturally knew what was going on.

These days, she has been hiding and no longer goes into the old lady's yard every day like before. The old lady naturally feels uncomfortable because the person she used to see every day suddenly disappears. After there is no one else in the room, the old lady waved to Aunt Su and asked her to sit next to her.

"You haven't been to my courtyard these days. I'm not feeling well and don't have the energy to talk to you properly. So please stay today and have dinner with me before leaving."

"Forgive me, old lady. It's not that I won't come, it's...I just don't dare to come."

"I know, I know everything. You're angry because we all know you weren't the one who poisoned her, but you didn't give me an explanation, causing you and Yan'er so much injustice. But... well... you should be able to guess who the poisoner was. But now she's still pregnant with our Shen family's child, so I won't do anything to her for the time being. Don't worry, as soon as she gives birth to the child, I'll kick her out of the house. No matter how Zong Yuan keeps her outside or what he wants, I won't give her another chance to cause trouble."

Aunt Su didn't expect that the old lady had such plans in mind. She thought that the old lady would at most punish Aunt Lan and let it go, but who would have thought that the old lady actually wanted to kick her out of the house.

"Old Madam, this... Master... Actually, I..."

"This is not only to clear your name, but also to prolong my life. She wanted to kill me, and I was kind enough to just kick her out. If Zong Yuan still wants to protect her, then my relationship as mother and son will be over."

"Master is still very filial. Old Madam, please don't blame him for this. In fact, he is caught in the middle and is in a dilemma."

"If I really sever the mother-son relationship with him, are you willing to leave the Shen family with me, an old lady?"

The old lady had a smile on her face, and it seemed like a joke, but her shrewd eyes were observing Aunt Su's expression without blinking.

"The old lady and the master are mother and son. There will never be a day when their love is severed. Even if that day does come, I will go out and wash clothes for others to ensure that you spend your old age in peace."

The smile on the old lady's face deepened!

At this time, Shen Zongyuan outside the door sighed softly and withdrew his foot that was about to go in. He felt even more guilty in front of Aunt Su.

"Okay, okay, with what you said, I'm not afraid of anything anymore. I can't rely on my son, but I can still rely on you. It's my blessing."

After that afternoon, the old lady began to openly favor Concubine Su. Concubine Su, like before, went in and out of Luxiangzhai every day. Even if she did nothing but just chatted with the old lady, she could make the old lady very happy.

Just when Shen Nanyan's injury was about to heal, Princess Chunxi stepped into the gate of the Shen Mansion again. This time, Mrs. Lu and Shen Lingxi didn't even show up, so Princess Chunxi walked straight in and headed towards Shen Nanyan's yard.

"This old minister greets Princess Chunxi."

Shen Zongyuan stopped the princess halfway, and the princess glanced at Shen Zongyuan proudly with the corner of her eye.

"Oh, Master Shen is at home."

"I am on leave today and have not come to greet the princess. This is my fault."

"Master Shen, there's no need to resort to such nonsense. This princess just beat up your Shen family's legitimate daughter when I came here last time. It's good enough that Master Shen doesn't hold a grudge against this princess. There's no reason to come to greet her from afar."

"My daughter must have offended you, otherwise how could the princess punish her? It's all because I, your humble servant, failed to control her properly. Thank you, princess."

Princess Chunxi smiled and looked at Shen Zongyuan again.

"Of course, Shen Lingxi despises the royal family, and it is indeed difficult for this princess to teach her. If Lord Shen has any questions in the future, he can come and ask this princess at any time."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Princess. I still have one thing I don't understand. Could you please explain it to me?"

"You said."

"May I ask when did the princess meet my daughter Yan'er? How come I have never heard of her?"

"It was the day when I taught your daughter."

"So, the princess has never seen my daughter before."

"She's just a little concubine's daughter. How could I possibly know her? I came to your Shen's house that day because I heard that your concubines' sons and daughters were bullying your legitimate sons and daughters to the point of suffocating them. So I came with good intentions to persuade them. But I never expected that when I entered this mansion, it seemed that it was completely different. The one wearing gold and silver and acting so arrogantly seemed to be your legitimate daughter. Lord Shen, who spread these rumors outside? Was it intentional or unintentional?"

"This this…"

A thin layer of sweat instantly broke out on Shen Zongyuan's forehead, and he couldn't explain it for a long time. Princess Chunxi didn't bother with him. A hint of scorn appeared on her bright little face, and she walked away.

"Master Shen, think about it slowly. This princess brought something for Yan'er. If we wait any longer, I'm afraid it will get cold."

Shen Zongyuan hurriedly bowed to Princess Chunxi's receding figure and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand.

Princess Chunxi, who has always been arrogant, came to see Shen Nanyue and brought her things. Shen Zongyuan's opinion of his daughter began to change quietly. After all, not many people could win the favor of Princess Chunxi.
