Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

On the way to the Su family, neither the master nor the servant spoke. Shen Nanyan was thinking about the Su family's affairs, while Caifu was thinking about the cat in Shen Lingxi's arms. It was really beautiful, but it was a pity that it was not in the hands of her own lady.

The carriage was parked in front of the Su family's door. Shen Nanyan was about to get off when Nanny Yuan's man made a puzzled sound outside. Shen Nanyan glanced at Caifu. Caifu hurriedly bent down and went out, following Nanny Yuan's man's gaze, and also became puzzled.

"Miss, that's not right. We haven't come to the wrong place, but why did the Su Mansion change to the Hong Mansion? Who in our family has the surname Hong? I think my uncle's wife's surname is Yao."

Hearing Caifu say this, Shen Nanyan raised her hand and lifted the curtain. Sure enough, she saw that the house that the Su family bought at the beginning of the year had been renamed. Her premonition became worse and worse.

"Uncle Yi, please go knock on the door and ask."

"it is good."

Uncle Yi knocked on the door for a while, and then a servant came out, said a few words to him hurriedly at the door, and then closed the door again.

"Miss, the servant said that it was sold to them by the Master of the Su family, and that it had been sold for almost two months."

"Have you asked your uncle where they moved to?"

To be honest, at this moment Shen Nanyan hoped that her uncle and aunt would move to a bigger house.

"I asked, but they didn't know either."

Shen Nanyan lowered the curtain and sat back without saying another word. Caifu came in and didn't know what to say or how to comfort Shen Nanyan.

"Uncle Yi, let's go to Baicao Lane and take a look."

That was the courtyard where the Su family first lived when they moved into the city. It has been idle since they moved.

"Yes, Miss, please sit down."

The carriage turned around and headed towards Baicao Lane.

If they couldn't find them in Baicao Lane, Shen Nanyue would have to ask Wu You to go and ask around at night, because they still had to manage the shop in Shangjing City, so it was impossible for them to go back outside the city. They must still be in the city.

After the carriage arrived at Baicao Lane, they saw people walking in the courtyard from afar. As soon as the carriage stopped, Shen Nanyan jumped out of the car impatiently, which scared Uncle Yi and Caifu so much that they reached out to catch her, but Shen Nanyan was not at all squeamish and rushed into the courtyard as soon as she landed.

There were clothes hanging out to dry in the yard, as well as some chopped firewood. A woman was sitting in the yard with her back to him.

"Aunt."

Obviously, Shen Nanyan's voice startled Yao Susu. She turned her head suddenly, her face showing panic. She seemed like she was about to cry, but also wanted to escape.

She was no longer wearing her usual gorgeous clothes, but a coarse cloth dress. She had no jewelry on her head, and only a piece of rag wrapped around her hair. Her face was rough and sallow, and she looked lifeless, as if she had suffered for decades.

"Yan... Yan Yan'er, how did you find yourself here? I... your uncle... please sit down first, yes, sit down quickly. I'll go make some tea, wait for me."

"Aunt, what's going on?"

Shen Nanyan stepped forward and stopped Yao Susu who was about to enter the house. In just a moment, Yao Susu's tears fell. No matter how Shen Nanyan comforted her, she couldn't stop crying. It was as if the grievances that had been suppressed for a long time burst out at this moment.

Helplessly, Shen Nanyan could only pull her to sit down and watch her cry. After an incense stick of time, her emotions slowly stabilized. At this moment, her eyes were already swollen from crying, and Shen Nanyan's heart was sinking straight down, as if it had fallen into the abyss. She had been there for so long and hadn't seen anyone else in the yard, so she even suspected that someone in the Su family was in danger.

"Yan'er, I...we know that truth cannot be hidden. One day you will find out. It is your aunt who has wronged you. It is our Su family that owes your mother and you. It is all my fault. It is all my fault. If you want to blame someone, just blame your aunt."

"What's strange? You have to tell me what it is first."

"I really can't put it into words. You gave us the chance to change our fate, but we... ah... we are so disappointing!"

"Aunt, no matter how big the problem is, there will always be a solution. Stop crying and tell me what it is. Is everyone in your family still alive?"

"Yes, yes, they are all here."

After hearing the affirmative answer, Shen Nanyan's anxious heart was comforted a little. As long as the person is still there, no matter how big the problem is, it will be a small matter.

"What is it, then? Tell me."

"Your second brother, he... he must have been bewitched. He's not that kind of child. He never had those bad habits before. I don't know when he got addicted to gambling. When we found out, the people were already blocking the door and wanted to take over the house. Your uncle was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot. After questioning, we found out that he not only lost the newly bought house, but also... he also took a lot of money from your shop. Now your eldest brother has tied him up in the house and won't let him go out again. But even if we collected all the money, we can't fill the hole in the account book. Yan'er, don't blame your second brother. He didn't do it on purpose. We will definitely work hard to pay the money back."

"How is my second brother now?"

Shen Nanyue was naturally surprised by such a thing, but it was just silver, so she didn't take it to heart. Besides, she didn't touch a penny of the silver she got from Lei Wanjin.

"He was smashing things in the house all day long. I didn't dare get close to him. Only when your eldest brother came back could I bring him some food. I couldn't go out either. I had to stay in this yard all day, afraid that he would escape."

"Why didn't you tell me what happened?"

"Child, how can we open our mouths? This is a loss of your money. The last time I saw you, I wanted to tell you, but it was really hard to say it."

"I'm going to see my second brother."

Seeing Shen Nanyan about to get up, Yao Susu grabbed her.

"No, don't go. Be careful he might hurt you. Otherwise, wait for your big brother to come back and then go in with you. Oh, look at what he's doing. I was also mad at him. He made a lot of trouble when he brought me back. He smashed everything in the house. If it weren't for your big brother, I'm afraid your uncle and I would have been beaten by him."

"how so."

Shen Nanyan looked around and held Yao Susu's rough hand, feeling very uncomfortable.

"I'll have someone buy a new house tomorrow, so you should move in as soon as possible. Don't worry about the money in the account book. If it's gone, it's gone. We don't need to worry about that few taels of silver..."

"That's not just a few taels of silver. I've calculated it, it's a full two hundred and thirty thousand taels of silver!"

Su Xinyuan, who suddenly came back, interrupted Shen Nanyan.

"Big brother, you're back."

Shen Nanyan turned around and saw Su Xinyuan, who had lost a lot of weight, with a smile on her face.

"Yan'er, we didn't mean to hide it from you. We just wanted to fill in the gaps as much as possible before telling you."

"Big brother said we are a family, but he is still haggling over such a small amount of money."

"This isn't a..."

"I'll leave it at that. Okay, let's leave it at that. Don't mention it again. Taking good care of my second brother is the most important thing right now. The account is done. Tomorrow, my eldest brother and I will go look at the house. We'll also take care of anything else we need. Don't think about anything else. By the way, how is my uncle?"

Things have already happened, and in Shen Nanyan's opinion, this is not a big deal, but Su Xinrong really needs to be restrained, otherwise if it continues to develop, who knows what will happen.
