Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

Both mother and son were angry, but neither of them knew what to do.

"Mother, that princess really doesn't take people seriously."

"She is a princess, so naturally she won't take us seriously."

"Once my son captures her, he will definitely teach her a lesson."

"Do you really think you have that ability?"

"As long as my son makes a little effort, there is nothing he can't get."

"Don't act recklessly, or you might end up in danger of death."

"I know, I won't act rashly."

"Have you been to Aunt Lan's place recently?"

"No, she didn't seem to like me much after she got pregnant, and I was too lazy to see her. It was meaningless."

While speaking, Shen Yunyi unconsciously lowered his eyes, afraid that Mrs. Lu would see the panic in his eyes. Cuizhu and Tang Manrou were both young, and they were not as charming as Aunt Lan. However, Shen Yunyi was very obsessed with Aunt Lan and went to her courtyard many times, but was always given excuses. That was why he had not been there recently.

"You just realized it. I told you a long time ago that she was using you, but she had a child with you. How cruel! She used your child to deal with me."

"Don't worry, after the child is born, I will persuade her to be on the same page with you. Wouldn't it be wonderful if you two could live in harmony and deal with Aunt Su together?"

"You are asking for your life. This is in the Shen family, and you still dare to have anything to do with her. If you are discovered, both of you will be drowned."

Shen Yunyi picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"It's not my fault. Look at the two people in my room. Tang Manrou has become more and more arrogant since she came into my courtyard. Cuizhu has been giving me trouble all day long. I don't want to go back to my courtyard at all. Mom, can you take them somewhere else so I can have some peace and quiet?"

"Tang Manrou is pregnant and can't move for the time being. Cuizhu... do you still want her?"

"No, no, take it away quickly and sell it to a brothel or gambling den. The more I see it, the more annoying it gets."

"Okay, just be patient. I'll find a way to solve this problem."

The mother and son easily decided Cuizhu's life or death.

But Cuizhu had worked for Lu for so long, how could she not know what Lu's methods were, so she had taken precautions early on. So half a month later, when she found that there was something wrong with the teapot in her room, she became cautious. Everything she ate had to be made by her personal maid, and she dared not be careless at all.

Shen Yunyi still often stayed out all night like before. He used to stay in brothels, but a few months ago, he started spending the whole night in gambling houses.

This is naturally all thanks to Su Xinyuan. He found a few people in other counties who were like-minded with Shen Yunyi, brought them to Shangjing, and gave them a sum of money to let them approach Shen Yunyi. He began to encourage him to go to the gambling house every day. At the beginning, Shen Yunyi was naturally unwilling. He liked women more than gambling, but over time they gradually came into contact. This contact was extraordinary. The monthly silver was not enough, and Lu had to subsidize him every few days. Sometimes Lu didn't give it, so he went to find his uncle Lu.

But he can't go to ask for the money often, so now he has started writing IOUs to the gambling house. Because his father is the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, the gambling house is not worried about not getting the money.

When the first light snow fell, Caifu had several pots of silver charcoal burned and brought into the house. Shen Nanyue lay barefoot on the couch reading a book, and she didn't feel cold at all.

At midnight, Shen Nanyan had just gone to bed when she heard a knock on the door. The sound was very light, as if the person knocking was particularly fearful and cautious. Caifu hurriedly picked up a vase and was about to go out, but was stopped by Nanny Yuan.

"Just stay in the house and look after the girl. If there's any danger, don't open the door and hide with the girl."

"Madam Yuan, you are all in the room, I will go by myself."

Shen Nanyan had a gun, so what was she afraid of? But no matter what she said, Caifu and Nanny Yuan refused to let her leave the room and forcibly pulled her back to the bed. Nanny Yuan took the opportunity to open the door and walked out.

When Nanny Yuan and several maids opened the door, they found that the person in the gray cloak and hat was Cuizhu. Nanny Yuan naturally did not let her in and asked her to tell them what was the matter. However, Cuizhu only wanted to see Shen Nanyue. No matter what Nanny Yuan said, she just insisted on leaving.

There was no other way, so Nanny Yuan went in and reported to Shen Nanyan.

"Then let her in."

"Miss, she is from the eldest son's courtyard and used to be the mistress's maid."

"So what? If she harms me today, both the eldest master and the lady will be implicated. Bring her in."

"Yes."

In the blink of an eye, Cuizhu followed Nanny Yuan in. She didn't even bring a maid with her. Her little face was red from the cold. As soon as she entered the door, she was stopped by Nanny Yuan. She was only allowed to stand at the door and talk, and was not allowed to get close to Shen Nanyue.

After Cuizhu stood still, she immediately knelt down to Shen Nanyan without saying a word.

"Please, Miss Fifth, save me."

Shen Nanyan didn't even raise her eyelids, just concentrated on drinking the hot milk in her hand. It tasted good, but not as good as the milk Wu You brought. Seeing that Shen Nanyan didn't say anything, Caifu spoke.

"Your master is the Madam, and now you are the eldest son's concubine. How come you have come to our young lady for help?"

"I...I really can't stand it anymore in the eldest young master's courtyard. Concubine Tang always makes things difficult for me. Recently, I even discovered that someone was poisoning me, so I boldly asked Miss Fifth to save me."

"Even if someone poisoned you, you should go and tell the Madam and the Master. What can a mere concubine like me do for you? Get out of here."

Seeing that Shen Nanyan was about to kick her out, Cuizhu suddenly panicked.

"Miss Wu...Miss Wu, since I'm here, I must have a secret to exchange with you."

"A secret? Well, tell me about it."

"Actually, Madam... it was Madam who forced me to seduce the Second Young Master. She said I had to have sex with him in her room, and then... then she threatened to die, forcing him to keep me by his side. Then she secretly drugged him. Madam... she also said that if the Second Young Master died, she would give me a large sum of money."

Shen Nanyue had not expected what happened next. At that time, she just thought that Lu wanted Shen Zongyuan to punish Shen Zongyunzhi, but she didn't expect that she had such a cruel plan.

No wonder that night Lu ran to Aunt Su's courtyard and turned everything upside down. It turned out that her murder plan was interrupted and she took it out on Aunt Su.

Thinking about it now, if it weren't for Wei Ze, Shen Yunzhi would have really fallen into the trap set by Lu's mother and son, and would have taken Cuizhu into the room. Not long after, he would have died young like in his previous life. Fortunately, everything was resolved, but the hatred has not been avenged. However, Shen Nanyue is not in a hurry, because Shen Yunyi's retribution has come.

Since Cuizhu came to him for help, it was equivalent to giving him an opportunity. His, Shen Yunyi's good days would change from now on!
