Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

They have been hanging around in underground casinos for years, and naturally have killed people. Even though the person in front of them is an official appointed by the imperial court, they may not take it seriously.

Shen Yunzhi took a big step forward and pressed his strong hand on the man's hand. He was secretly strong, but his face did not show anything.

"It is only natural to pay back a debt, but this is eight hundred thousand taels, not eighty thousand taels."

"Hahaha...yes, yes, yes, it's a large sum indeed, but the eldest master had a blast at the time. Okay, then what number of days does Second Master Shen think would be appropriate?"

Shen Yunzhi turned his gaze to Shen Zongyuan.

"Five... ten days."

Shen Zongyuan was so nervous that he stuttered.

"I'm a very talkative person. Since Lord Shen said five days, then it's five days. It's getting late, so we won't stay for dinner. See you in five days!"

Before the Smiling Tiger came, he knew that this debt would not be so easy to collect. In the final analysis, it just required a word from the Shen family. Now that the deadline had been agreed upon, they naturally would not stay any longer and turned around and left happily.

After the two figures disappeared, Lu fell to the ground, completely without any strength in his body.

"Master, you must save Yun Yi. Those people really dare to kill people. Poor Yun Yi is still so young. He is the legitimate son of our Shen family. You must not let anything happen to him, Master."

"Ms. Lu, I have two options for you. First, the Shen family will pay you 800,000 taels of silver, and I, Shen Zongyuan, will divorce you immediately. Second, go and raise enough silver."

"Master, what did you say? Divorce... Divorce me. What did I do wrong that you want to divorce me?"

"Don't ask me for a reason, just choose."

Shen Zongyuan was really determined to divorce Lu. It was because of her that Shen Yunyi did all these bad things. Shen Zongyuan really couldn't stand it anymore. He could either borrow or steal the 800,000 taels himself to make up for Shen Yunyi, but Lu had to leave the house. Or she could stay in the mansion, and then she would have to pay the 800,000 taels herself.

"No, I won't choose. I won't. This is my home and I won't leave. Shen Zongyuan, Yun Yi is your child. Are you going to abandon him and leave him alone? How can you be so cruel to leave us mother and son? You used to love him the most, didn't you?"

"Butler, have someone go and invite Lord Lu."

"Why are you looking for my brother? What do you want to do? Shen Zongyuan, you and I have been married for more than 20 years. I am devoted to you. Are you really so heartless?"

"Take advantage of the darkness and have your brother take you back. Then we can stop arguing and you won't have to worry about the 800,000 taels of silver."

"Don't even think about it. I won't leave. Su Yingqiu, that bitch, is still in the Shen family. Why should I leave?"

"Ms. Lu, please be careful with your words."

Shen Yunzhi's cold voice seemed to penetrate people's bones, but Mrs. Lu slowly stood up.

"How dare you, a lowly bastard, speak to me like that? You're just relying on your merits. But compared to my brother, your lowly position is nothing."

"Madam, please don't be so arrogant. Lord Lu may not abandon his wife and children to care only about you. If Lord Lu doesn't care about you, think about your own situation."

Shen Yunzhi couldn't say these words, but Shen Nanyue didn't care. Lu's eyes were obviously panicked for a moment, but soon she held her head high and chest out, like a rooster ready to fight at any time.

"My brother will naturally protect me. Why should you, a little bitch, worry about it? What qualifications do you, a bastard who is not worthy of being on the stage, have to speak here?"

"I gave you the qualifications, and now you are the one who has no right to speak. Come, prepare the four treasures of the study."

Shen Zongyuan didn't want to argue with her anymore, so he began to prepare to write a letter of divorce, just waiting for Lu Senquan to come and take Lu away directly, so that the Shen family could have a few days of peace.

"Shen Zongyuan, I haven't committed any of the seven grounds for divorce, so you can't divorce me."

"Then let the whole of the capital despise me, say I'm a jerk, and call me a person of low character. I, Shen Zongyuan, will endure it. Mrs. Lu, I gave you a chance, but you didn't want it."

"You... No, Shen Zongyuan, it's not like that. I know Yun Yi has gotten into big trouble, but let's pool our money. We still have a few farms outside the city. The harvests are not good, so we can sell them. We also have shops, but we don't know how to run them. We can... No, sir, we have silver, yes, we have silver, and it must be more than 800,000 taels."

"What are you crazy about?"

"Mrs. Su's shop has made a lot of money. And, Master, I'm afraid you don't know, there are also Qixinglou, Baiweizhai, Kelaixuan, Hongyunlou, Zhenwei Pavilion... There's also the Su's grain shop on Lianhua Street, the famous milk tea shop on Xihe Street, and oh, yes, there's also Piaoxiang Pavilion. These are all looked after by Mrs. Su's brothers and nephews. With so many shops, taking out 800,000 taels is a piece of cake."

Mrs. Lu was delighted when she heard this, while Aunt Su was frightened, and Shen Zongyuan and the old lady were completely confused.

"Su...you said these shops all belong to the Su family?"

"What Su family? If it weren't for our Fifth Miss, the Su family might still be begging for food in some corner. Since it's the Fifth Miss's shop, it's the Shen family's shop. So it's reasonable for us to take a little money from our own shop, right?"

It turns out that when people are speechless, they really can't help laughing, just like Shen Nanyan at this moment. She really can't control herself, and the smile on her face is not concealed at all.

"Yan'er, is this... true?"

"Dad, what does the truth have to do with your decision to divorce Mrs. Lu?"

"Of course it matters. If I take the money from the shop, Yun Yi's problem will be solved, and the master won't have to divorce me anymore."

"Ask Dad, is this the only reason he wants to divorce you?"

Shen Nanyan's words instantly made Shen Zongyuan clear his mind. Yes, his disgust for Lu was not just because of Shen Yunyi, but Shen Yunyi's matter accelerated the process of divorcing his wife.

Ever since Madam Lu covered her face with the nanny's urine, she had been very resistant to her in her heart, as well as her hypocrisy, her duplicity, her harshness, and her methods.

When Mrs. Lu looked at Shen Zongyuan's expression, her heart began to sink slowly. She never thought that after she and Shen Zongyuan had been married for so many years, he had been thinking about divorcing her.

"Don't try to guess what your father is thinking. I've been married to your father for many years and we've been inseparable. Your father wouldn't do this. Master, please save Yun Yi. Once this is over, I'll teach him well, make him respect his elders, study hard, and bring honor to our Shen family. I'll also serve you and the old lady well, and we'll live in harmony and happiness. Nothing will happen again."

“The Su family’s money will not save your Lu family’s child.”

Although it was the Su family's shop, as Mrs. Lu said, that was Shen Nanyan's money, so Shen Yunzhi just said it directly.

"That's the Shen family's money!"

Mrs. Lu suddenly started yelling hysterically, as if the louder her voice was, the more likely she would get the silver.
