Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

Mrs. Lu lowered her eyes and looked at her son, her eyes full of schemes and calculations. The tacit understanding between mother and son made Shen Yunyi instantly understand his mother's meaning, and he immediately changed his attitude.

"Father, no matter what, things have come to this point. I am indeed married to Cuizhu. If I kick her out now, I can't bear it. Why don't you let me marry her? Even if it means she stays in my courtyard and I protect her for the rest of her life, otherwise I will be unworthy of being a man."

Shen Yunyi's words made Shen Zongyuan look at him with a higher opinion. Although his son was mediocre, he had a good heart and had not made any major mistakes in the past. It seemed that he really lost control today and that this ridiculous thing happened.

"Forget it. Let your mother take care of this matter. She'll take you to the courtyard first, and then make you a concubine after you get married. Cuizhu, this is a matter of mutual affection between you and the eldest young master. There was no coercion involved. Do you understand?"

"Thank you very much, Master. I will keep it in mind."

Shen Zongyuan felt helpless. Shen Yunyi had a concubine before he got married. If the family he was considering marrying knew about this, there would be a lot of trouble and all the follow-up matters would be handed over to Mrs. Lu. He didn't feel like staying any longer, so he stood up and left the yard, heading towards Aunt Lan's yard.

As soon as Shen Zongyuan left, Lu's face changed. She grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it on Cuizhu's head. In an instant, tea mixed with blood dripped down her cheeks.

"You seem to have your own ideas more and more. I asked you to seduce that idiot Shen Yunzhi, but you actually changed your mind on your own. I didn't even know I had a vixen by my side."

"Madam, I dare not. We originally agreed that I would pretend to be entangled with the Second Young Master, waiting for the Master to catch us. But who knew that the First Young Master would grab me and refuse to let go for a long time, so it turned out like this. It was really not my intention. Besides...besides...the Second Young Master is not in this room. Even if I wanted to seduce him, I would be powerless."

Only then did Mrs. Lu remember that Shen Yunzhi was not here at all. There was someone guarding the gate of her yard, so when did Shen Yunzhi leave?

Another failure made Mrs. Lu even more angry. She had a vague feeling that she was being fooled, but she was not quite sure.

"Even without the Second Young Master, you still wouldn't let go of the First Young Master, right? That's why you forced us to agree to take you as a concubine. But don't think being a concubine is that easy."

"Cuizhu will remain Madam's confidante from now on. She will obey Madam's orders and will do whatever she says without hesitation. She won't dare to have any other thoughts."

I just had to bite the bullet and force Lu. If I don't humble myself now, I'm afraid that before I can recover, Lu's knife will be stuck in my heart.

Mrs. Lu didn't say anything else. She glanced at Cuizhu with a look full of contempt.

"Why don't you take her out? What are you standing here for? She will be your resident in the future. Don't let me worry about how to discipline her."

"Yes, son, I understand. Mother, go to bed early."

Shen Yunyi took Cuizhu away. Cuizhu was naturally very happy. Although she was still just a bed warmer, at least she left the Lu family and could spend the whole day with Shen Yunyi. If this continued, sooner or later Shen Yunyi would become dependent on her. If she was lucky, maybe she would be able to sit on the position of the mistress of the Shen family in the future.

But Mrs. Lu and Shen Yunyi were unhappy. It was clearly a trap set for Shen Yunzhi, but in the end they were framed by a servant. Both of them looked as dark as the night.

Mrs. Lu thought about it over and over again but couldn't understand how Shen Yunzhi left. Could it be that the people in her yard were bribed?

Lu tossed and turned, feeling so upset that she simply gave up and went to Concubine Su's yard with Madam Cheng. At this time, Shen Nanyue had already slept with Concubine Su, while Shen Yunzhi was in the side room.

When Mrs. Lu arrived in a hurry, she kicked open Aunt Su's door.

"Smash it for me."

Because the maids and servants in this courtyard were all from the Lu family, she could do whatever she wanted without worrying about anyone leaking out.

Shen Nanyue held Aunt Su's hand and asked her not to go out. The two of them hid on the bed. Lu's people searched the house for a long time but couldn't find Aunt Su, which made Lu even more angry.

In the entire Shen family, only in front of Aunt Su would Mrs. Lu take off her disguise. She and her son suffered a loss tonight, and she would definitely vent her anger on Aunt Su. Now that Aunt Su was nowhere to be seen, Mrs. Lu almost had the yard set on fire.

"Su Yingqiu, come out here! You're becoming more and more powerful. You dare to do something in my courtyard? Is it because I haven't taken good care of you recently that you've forgotten your identity? Madam Cheng, find the person for me."

"Yes, ma'am."

No one in the yard saw Aunt Su go out, so Aunt Su should still be in the room. Nanny Cheng ran straight to the bed, lifted the bed curtain and saw Aunt Su hugging Shen Nanyue and huddled in the corner of the bed. When Nanny Cheng reached out to pull her out, Shen Nanyue glared at her.

"Stop it, we can get out of here by ourselves, there's no need for an old woman like you to do anything."

Nanny Cheng rolled her eyes and withdrew her hand, standing firmly beside the bed and watching the two of them come down.

"It's the middle of the night. I don't know why Madam smashed Aunt Su's room like this."

Shen Nanyan stood in front of Aunt Su. Although she was not tall, the aura on her face was so imposing that it could not be ignored.

"Why are you here?"

"This is my aunt, why can't I be here."

"Madam Cheng, have someone send the Fifth Miss back home."

"Yes……"

"I won't leave. If Madam doesn't give me an explanation, I will die here. Madam, please collect my and my aunt's bodies tomorrow."

Mrs. Lu's eyes were fixed, and there was a flash of sharpness in the corner of her eyes. Then when she lowered her eyes and raised them again, she looked like a loving mother.

"I am the mistress of this household. I simply want to speak to your aunt. Besides, it's inappropriate for a girl like you to listen to a conversation between adults. Today, Mother asked Madam Cheng to select a piece of fabric for you. Tomorrow, you can go to my courtyard to see what kind of clothes I can make. I guarantee you'll like the color."

This is how Mrs. Lu deceived Shen Nanyue in the past. It is ridiculous in Shen Nanyue's eyes that she still uses this method now.

"Let's give the good stuff to Big Sister. As a concubine's daughter, it's hard for me to show off too much. Otherwise, people will just say that I stole Big Sister's things. Then it will be bad to blame Madam for flattering a concubine's daughter. What do you think, Madam?"

"You... hehe, it seems like you really intend to fight to the death with this lady today."

Shen Nanyue's words were very clear. She already knew about Lu's flattery of her. Since that was the case, Lu simply stopped pretending. She originally thought that this concubine's daughter was stupid and dumb, and she could just fool around and raise her for a few more years before sending her away. Unexpectedly, she suddenly became smart and even saw through her own methods. She was afraid that the people she had to deal with would not only be Shen Yun.
