Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

Chapter 137 Su Zhaoyu's hesitation to speak

In an instant, Yue Hanzhou quickly caught up with Shen Nanyan who was about to go out, and stopped her in the corner of the wall. Caifu stood straight between the two of them, ready to guard against Yue Hanzhou.

"Master Yue, this is the Shen family. What do you want to do with our young lady?"

"I have no other intentions. I just want to ask Fifth Sister why she is targeting me like this. But if there is anything I did wrong in the past, Fifth Sister can..."

"Who is your sister? You and my fourth young lady haven't married yet. Even if you were married, my young lady wouldn't dare to be your sister. I hope Master Yue will stop saying such things, lest you ruin my young lady's reputation."

From Shen Nanyan's previous attitude towards Yue Hanzhou, Caifu could tell that her young lady disliked and even hated Yue Hanzhou, so she didn't give Yue Hanzhou any face.

A maid could speak like this, she must be relying on Shen Nanyan's power, but Yue Hanzhou had no choice, he coveted Shen Nanyan, so he could only suppress his temper.

"Yes, Miss Fifth, I wonder if Miss Fifth could tell me what I did wrong."

Yue Hanzhou's gaze passed Caifu and looked at Shen Nanyan behind her. Shen Nanyan smiled gently and reached out to pull Caifu away.

"It would be appropriate if Master Yue didn't appear in front of me."

Not wanting to get entangled with him anymore, Shen Nanyan walked straight out of the Shen family's gate. Behind Shen Nanyan, Yue Hanzhou's face became sinister and cunning, and his eyes seemed to shoot through Shen Nanyan.

After a moment, he turned around and went to look for Shen Rongying again. After all, he was able to enter and leave the Shen family now only by using Shen Rongying's name. If they really fell out, how could he come to the Shen family in the future and how could he see Shen Nanyue?

Shen Nanyan took Caifu directly to Baiweizhai. After a long time, her aunt Yao Susu couldn't stop looking at her while holding her. Finally, her uncle Su Zhaoyu helped her out, and Shen Nanyan was able to escape. Now everyone in the Su family is in high spirits, and they are dressed in low-key and gorgeous clothes. Her uncle Su Zhaoyu looks a lot younger.

"If you don't come, I'll have to ask your aunt to go to the Shen family to look for you."

"Is there something wrong, uncle?"

"Recently, shops in Qingzhou and Yiluancheng have opened one after another. Business is booming, so I want to discuss with you where we should go next."

"Uncle can go wherever he wants. What do you think, big brother?"

"He said he wanted to see your arrangements."

"It's up to me. My uncle and big brother are taking care of the business. You guys naturally know more than me, so I won't interfere."

"How can this be possible? That's just a stunt..."

"Goods are a small matter. After buying the shop, just prepare the warehouse."

"Since you don't have any ideas, let's discuss it."

"Where's big brother?"

"I went looking for a shop early in the morning. It should be at the Seven Stars Building right now."

"Okay, then I'll go find big brother."

What could she say to the old man? Shen Nanyan hadn't seen Su Xinyuan for a long time and just wanted to play with him.

When Shen Nanyan turned around to leave, Su Zhaoyu behind her suddenly stood up and opened his mouth, then finally sighed lightly and sat back weakly.

Aunt Yao Susu came in and frowned when she saw Su Zhaoyu's haggard face. She stuffed the hot tea on the table into his hand, stood behind him, and gently massaged his back.

As soon as Shen Nanyan arrived at the Qixing Tower, she met Su Xinyuan who was about to go out. When he looked up and saw that it was Shen Nanyan, Su Xinyuan's face instantly lit up with a smile.

"Yan'er, it's Yan'er."

"Big brother."

Shen Nanyan smiled and walked over quickly, hugging Su Xinyuan like a child seeing a candied haws. Su Xinyuan turned around and looked around, then hurriedly pulled him to the backyard.

"I haven't seen you for so long. Why are you here today? Are you cold? Are you dressed enough?"

While asking, he pulled Shen Nanyan's little hand and rubbed it.

"Hurry up and have someone bring in two more charcoal pots. Remember to use silver-thread charcoal, and... hot tea. Make a pot of the newly bought Mengding tea. Also have someone bring in some fruit. They all need to be hot."

Su Xinyuan wanted to bring all the good things to Shen Nanyue. Seeing him commanding the servants, Shen Nanyue's eyes curved with smiles and she grabbed him with her backhand.

"Big brother, please stop busying yourself. I'm not a stranger."

"I'm just worried about not taking good care of you. You're not used to the rough life we ​​usually have. How can a girl raised by a wealthy family endure the slightest injustice? Oh, why do you look a little thinner? Have you been eating well recently?"

"No, I've gained weight. My uncle said business is good right now."

"Yes, the shops everywhere are making good profits, aren't they? Didn't you even look at the account books I sent you?"

"Why should I look at that? I feel relieved to have a big brother watching over me. Brother, now that there are no problems in the shop, have you ever thought about yourself?"

"what?"

"Want to enter the court?"

"You mean... to be an official?"

"With your intelligence, this isn't a problem. I can help you if you want."

"No, Yan'er, I'm very satisfied with my life now. Being an official has its pros and cons. You never know when your entire family might be executed for any reason. But business is different. As long as you follow the rules of the court and have enough wealth, you can provide those around you with a stable life. All I want is for my family to live together in peace."

There was light in Su Xinyuan's eyes when he spoke, especially when he talked about business. Shen Nanyan knew that he was more interested in business than the court, so she didn't say anything else.

She originally thought that if Shen Yunzhi was a martial artist and Su Xinyuan was a literary scholar, then in time, it would not be a problem for them to overthrow the Yue family. However, Su Xinyuan did not have such an idea, so she did not force it.

The two chatted for a while and vaguely heard some noise in front. Su Xinyuan was worried and wanted to get up to check it out. Shen Nanyan liked to watch the fun, so she naturally followed.

In the lobby on the first floor, the shopkeeper and several of his men were stopping a girl, while the others were watching a show. The girl had a slender back and was well-dressed, but they had an argument for some unknown reason. When the two men approached, they heard the girl's mosquito-like voice making requests.

"Shopkeeper, I really...if you let me go back, I will definitely pay the bill. I really didn't expect it to cost so much. Please give me a chance. I will definitely not default on my debt."

"I'm not the boss either. If I let you go and you don't come back, how can I make up for the money? Girl, please think about me too."

"But... I don't know where my maid has gone. What should I do? I..."

"I told you, why don't you write a letter and I'll send someone to your house to collect the money. As long as we receive the silver, we will definitely let you go. Otherwise, we will have to report you to the police."

"No, no, no, don't report it to the police, I..."

Shen Nanyan took two steps closer, and the woman's voice became clearer, but there was a hint of crying in her voice.

"Fan Yujun."

"you know?"

Su Xinyuan looked down at Shen Nanyan beside him.

"Yeah, we're friends."

"Go upstairs first, I'll bring the person to see you."

Shen Nanyan knew that Su Xinyuan was protecting her. A concubine's daughter should not show up in public, otherwise if she was seen by so many people, who knows what rumors would spread.
