Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

After the door was closed, Shen Lingxi stood up suddenly, regardless of the cold weather and the exposure of her skin. She took three or two steps to Shen Rongying and slapped her twice in the face.

"Bitch, do you want to die?"

After saying that, Shen Lingxi went to pinch Shen Rongying's neck, and the two of them wrestled with each other in an instant. Soon, the naked Shen Lingxi was injured, but Shen Rongying was not much better. All the ornaments on her head fell all over the floor, and Shen Lingxi was still holding a strand of her hair in her hand.

"Miss, please stop fighting! We're in a teahouse and the boy is still outside. If we alert others, how will you ladies be able to go out again?"

The maids Juhua and Dongmei took turns persuading and pulling, and finally managed to separate the two. Juhua hurriedly pulled Shen Lingxi aside, picked up clothes from the ground and wrapped her up, and Dongmei also began to tidy up her lady's makeup and dress.

After a cup of tea, the two of them managed to tidy up, but a closer look revealed that their hair was messy, their jewelry was broken, and even their nails were cracked.

Shen Rongying sat for a while, then called Dongmei and asked her to go out and send the servant away. Although Shen Nanyan said she would introduce him, how could Princess Chunxi be willing to help him? Now that he had Shen Lingxi's handle, everything would be solved.

"Shen Rongying, remember this, if you dare to say a word about this, I will kill you."

After saying that, Shen Lingxi pulled her cloak and was about to leave. Shen Rongying picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Why, are you leaving now, big sister?"

Shen Lingxi turned her head in confusion, and looked at Shen Rongying with eyes as sharp as knives. Shen Rongying was not afraid, and even had a smug smile on her face.

"My mother is pregnant now, and there's no one to take care of her. The child is about to be born, so I can't give birth to him at my mother's house, big sister, what do you think?"

"Is that what you're telling me?"

"A house needs servants, and the daily meals should be the same as before at the Shen family. Oh... and by the way, we also need to find a wet nurse and a midwife in advance. During the winter confinement period, there must be at least 20 people to serve. After all, both mother and child need someone to take care of them."

"No, Shen Rongying, what do you mean?"

"Isn't the meaning clear enough? Big Sister should be able to get it done within three days. If Big Sister can't, it doesn't matter. It will just be one more scandal in the capital, and the storyteller under the overpass will have another story to tell."

"Do you threaten me?"

"Oh, big sister, you are wronging me. We are sisters. How could I do such a thing? It's just that my mother is in a bad situation now. Please, big sister, please be kind. Besides, the child calls you aunt. We are all family."

"Bah! What kind of slutty child dares to cling to me? Shen Rongying, I advise you to behave yourself, otherwise I will kill you as easily as crushing an ant."

"Okay, since big sister doesn't want to, I can't force her."

Shen Rongying stood up and walked out, reaching out to open the door.

"In broad daylight, the eldest daughter of the Shen family was having a secret meeting in this teahouse. Her crimson inner garment had been pulled down to her waist, and the straps of her bellyband had already been..."

After opening the door, Shen Rongying's voice became much louder. Shen Lingxi was really frightened. Without having time to tell Juhua, she rushed over and covered Shen Rongying's mouth. Juhua quickly closed the door again.

"Are you crazy?"

"If I were the big sister, I'm afraid she would be even crazier than me."

Shen Lingxi knew that Shen Rongying was not joking with her, she was really determined.

"Don't you care about the Shen family's reputation? If the Shen family falls, do you think the Yue family will really welcome you in?"

"Haha... Isn't it hot to say this? How did I get into Yue Hanzhou's bed, and how was I forced to have an engagement with the Yue family? Don't you, Shen Lingxi, know? What does it matter whether Yue Hanzhou marries me or not?"

"But the Shen family is at least your home. Do you want to watch the Shen family being laughed at by everyone in the capital?"

"If you care so much about the Shen family, then do as I say. It's just a little money, it's nothing to you, isn't it?"

Shen Lingxi lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. When she raised her head again, her face had softened a lot.

"Even if my sister doesn't tell me about this little thing, we will still make arrangements. Like you said, the baby Lan is carrying is my brother's child. We are all family."

"It's good that you know. Within three days, I want to see the courtyard, the servants, and the 100,000 taels of silver. I hope you won't let me down."

One hundred thousand taels!

Shen Lingxi naturally hated it in her heart, but she had just agreed and now she regretted it. If Shen Rongying was desperate, her affairs would be known to everyone, and then it would not be a matter of 100,000 taels of silver. Shen Nanyan gritted her teeth and swallowed her breath secretly, with a fake smile on her face, and took Shen Rongying's hand.

"Don't worry, Fourth Sister. These are just small matters. We will definitely have them handled properly."

The deal was settled with the two sisters pretending to be friendly and smiling, and when they left the house, they were holding hands, as if they were natural sisters. No one knew that they had just had a fight.

On the other side, Shen Nanyue, Shen Yunzhi, and Su Xinyuan had just sat down in the Seven Star Tower. The dishes had not yet arrived when the servants from the Su Mansion ran in in a panic.

"Master, no...something's wrong. Second Master, I don't know when, but he ran away."

"What, ran away?"

The three of them were also shocked. How could someone who was locked up in the mansion run away by himself? You know, Su Xinrong's door was always locked, and the key was only in the hands of Yao Susu, the mistress of the Su family.

"There are servants at the gates of the mansion. He shouldn't be able to escape. Have you looked for him in the mansion?"

Shen Nanyan reacted the fastest.

"When I left, the master had just ordered the butler to send someone to look for it. I don't know if they've found it yet."

"Okay, we'll know when we get back. Let's go."

Shen Yunzhi pulled Shen Nanyan up and walked out, Su Xinyuan followed closely behind. The carriage was running wildly on the streets in the afternoon. Shen Yunzhi's hands tightly protected Shen Nanyan's body, fearing that she would get hit somewhere.

After the carriage stopped, the three of them rushed into the mansion without stopping. At this time, the mansion was in chaos. All the servants were shouting for Su Xinyuan everywhere, including the coachman and the kitchen staff. They almost didn't leave an inch of space. The three of them soon joined in and started searching, but as the sky gradually darkened, there was still no news at all.

Shen Nanyan went to Su Xinrong's room alone. The doors and windows in the room were intact, with no signs of being pried open. This meant that Su Xinrong did not escape. He walked out of the room normally. But how could he do it alone, unless there was someone else in the mansion to help him.

If someone really helped him leave, he would have been out of the mansion by now.
