Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

At this moment, Shen Zongyuan didn't say a word. Perhaps in his heart, the Su family could have its current industry thanks to the Shen family. Moreover, without Shen Nanyue's help, they would not be able to succeed. Since Shen Nanyue was involved, it would be understandable for her to take some silver from them. The main thing was that the Shen family really couldn't come up with so much money at once, which was 800,000 taels.

"Who can prove that the Su family's money belongs to the Shen family? If you dare, Madam, just go to the Su family and ask for the money. The Su family is no longer what it used to be. They still have some connections in both the government and business circles. Let's see who will be embarrassed in the end."

"Shen Yunzhi, that's your brother. You both have the surname Shen. How can you be so heartless?"

"It was he who took me to brothels, it was he who took me to drink and prostitutes, it was he who led me to the underground gambling den, it was he who had an affair with Miss Yudie, yet he pinned the blame on me, ruining my reputation in Shangjing City. How could I bear not to save such a good brother? Even a copper coin is the greatest kindness I can show."

As he spoke, Shen Yunzhi took out a copper coin from his waist and threw it on the ground. His handsome face was cold and his voice was full of teasing. Mrs. Lu was so angry that she couldn't say a word because those things were all facts.

"Alas, what a sin, what a sin! If it were me, I would just let him be hacked to death, and my Shen family would just pretend that we don't have this child, but... but this is still a life, Yingqiu, what do we do?"

This was the first time the old lady called Aunt Su by her nickname. Aunt Su's heart was instantly tightened. The old lady asked her what to do. Wasn't this just a test?

"Grandmother, don't be too sad. Madam has the Lu family behind her. A mere 800,000 is nothing to them. Even the few melons and dates in my aunt's noodle shop are not enough to make the Lu family laugh."

"Then... Yan'er, the Su family's shop..."

"That shop naturally belongs to the Su family, but my granddaughter just gave some suggestions. My eldest cousin Bao has been smart and courageous since he was a child, which is why the Su family has achieved its current status."

"You didn't pay a penny?"

"My granddaughter was so ignorant before, how could she give money to the Su family? But after the Su family got better, they would occasionally give me some change."

"Oh!"

The old lady said "oh" thoughtfully, her voice full of loss.

Although Shen Yunyi did all kinds of bad things, he was the legitimate son of the Shen family after all, and the old lady still wanted to save his life. However, the money he owed was too much, so after hearing that the Su family had made some money, she also had some ideas. But the old lady was not as domineering as Mrs. Lu. She originally thought of asking Aunt Su to borrow it, or Shen Nanyue to participate, which would be even simpler. But Shen Nanyue directly blocked what she wanted to say, and she was embarrassed to speak again.

Shen Zongyuan on the side also sighed softly. At this time, the servant brought the four treasures of the study. Shen Zongyuan stood up and was about to write the divorce letter. Lu rushed over to stop Shen Zongyuan. Shen Lingxi took advantage of this gap and threw the four treasures of the study directly out the door.

"Insolent! Shen Lingxi, do you still have me as your father in your eyes?"

"Father can't divorce my mother. The disaster was caused by my brother. What does it have to do with my mother? Anyway, my brother's surname is Shen. If the Shen family pays for saving him, it's fine. If not, then let him be hacked to death. I believe the Shen family doesn't need a son like him."

"you……"

"Lingxi, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Outside the door, Lu Senquan's voice was heard, and then Lu Senquan and Mrs. Lu walked in. As soon as they entered the room, they bowed to the old lady sitting in the seat of honor. After they sat down, Lu Senquan's eyes swept over everyone and finally stopped on Shen Nanyan.

Shen Nanyue held down Aunt Su and signaled her not to get up. Although Aunt Su was a concubine, Shen Zongyuan didn't say anything, so there was no need for her to get up and avoid him.

"Brother Shen, I've heard about this on the way. It's indeed Yun Yi's fault, but this isn't just about Yan Wan [Mrs. Lu]. You, as her father, also have an unshirkable responsibility. I think it's inappropriate for you to let Yan Wan collect the 800,000 taels by herself."

"She...Okay, now that this has happened, and Shen Yunyi's surname is Shen, then this disaster will be borne by my Shen family. Even if I have to sell everything I have, I will raise the 800,000 taels. Lord Lu, please take your sister back home now. The divorce letter will be sent to your house later."

"Sir Shen, if a son is not well-educated, it is the fault of his father. Do you have to drag my Lu family into this matter?"

"Our whole family had high hopes for this son, but what did he become in the end? Wasn't it all because of Lu's indulgence? Was it me who gave him money and let him go out and have fun? Was it me who let him idle around all day? Just ask, who has spoiled Shen Yunyi's extravagant nature? Not to mention a family like ours, even the princes in the palace don't dare to owe so much money in the gambling house like him. Lord Lu, if this was your son, how would you feel?"

"Young people are always prone to making mistakes. Now let's just talk about Yun Yi. Don't vent your anger on Yan Wan. After all, it was your Shen family's child who caused the trouble. Shouldn't your Shen family handle it?"

Shen Zongyuan leaned heavily on the chair and sighed deeply.

"Lord Lu, Madam Lu, now that we have come to this, I, Shen Zongyuan, will no longer have this face...today."

The Lu couple looked at each other, both of them were confused.

"My concubine, Shen Zongyuan, is pregnant..."

"master!"

When Lu heard Shen Zongyuan mention Aunt Lan, she was extremely frightened.

"Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu's two children both knew that the child's father was not me, but they kept it a secret because the child's father was Shen Yunyi. Tell me, can I still tolerate such a thing and not divorce my wife?"

Shen Zongyuan's words seemed to have hit the acupoints of the Lu couple. They were motionless and almost forgot to breathe. Looking at his sister who lowered her head and said nothing, without arguing, it was obvious that this was true.

Lu Senquan's blood froze. It would be fine if his sister didn't know about this, but since she wanted to hide it, she had to handle the matter properly. Now that things have turned out like this, he didn't know what to say when he wanted to speak for her. All his previous arguments seemed to have become a joke.

"This is the Shen family's business. How to deal with it is entirely up to Lord Shen. We haven't heard anything tonight. My husband and I are disturbing you all by visiting you late at night. Master, it's late. Let's go back."

Mrs. Lu immediately stood up and tried to pull Lu Senquan away, but Lu Senquan just sat there motionless.

"Brother, sister-in-law, you...are you going to abandon me?"

"If it was just for the money, we could still say a few words on your behalf, but look at what you've done. How can your brother and I even sit here with dignity? If this gets out, our Lu family will lose all face. How will the children in the Lu Mansion survive in the future? Yanwan, are you trying to destroy the Lu family?"

"Sister-in-law, Yun Yi is my child, the flesh and blood of my body, so naturally I have to protect him. What can I do? Sister-in-law, brother, you have loved Yun Yi very much since he was a child. Please save him, the people in the gambling house will really kill him."

Mrs. Lu turned her head away and didn't look at Mrs. Lu. She didn't want to have any more entanglement with Mrs. Lu. It didn't matter if the Shen family wanted to kick her out or divorce her, the Lu family would not get involved in this mess anyway.
