Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

Afterwards, Shen Yunzhi also left with Aunt Su and her daughter. The room instantly became quiet. The old lady raised her eyes and glanced at Shen Lingxi on the bed. Her eyes were full of disappointment. How could the two children whom she valued and was most proud of in the past become like this? Was she shortsighted, or had they all changed?

"Ugh……"

In the end, the old lady didn't say a word. She sighed deeply and turned away.

Watching the backs of everyone leaving, Shen Zongyuan felt powerless. He lowered his head and pinched his eyebrows, looking around helplessly. There was no one in the room to talk to except some wooden servants.

"Take good care of the young lady."

Shen Zongyuan left a helpless remark and was about to walk out of the room without any reluctance.

"Dad, you...you don't care about your daughter anymore. Her leg hasn't been healed yet."

"Did your father not care about you? Didn't your father call a doctor for you? The doctor said there was nothing he could do, so I asked Yan'er to treat you. Yan'er is your biological sister. She said she would do her best to treat you, regardless of past grudges. But what have you done? Now you have the nerve to say that your injury cannot be cured. You... you... when did you become like your mother, so unreasonable and troublesome!"

"My daughter is being unreasonable? It's Shen Nanyan who is two-faced. It was clearly her who injured me, but now she pretends to know nothing. Grandma is on her side, and even Daddy is on her side. Then what am I?"

"You've brought this upon yourself. Juhua, have someone go buy... buy some good medicine to apply to the young lady. Xi'er, your father has never wronged you. I only hope you can cherish our father-daughter relationship and not be like your mother, exhausting all my patience."

"father……"

Shen Zongyuan did not stay any longer. He turned around and looked very desolate and lonely.

Although Shen Lingxi's leg injury caused a lot of blood, the bones were not actually injured. Only the tibia and iliac ligament were injured. This kind of injury is not serious, but it is not light either. It mainly depends on the later treatment. However, there is no doctor who can treat it in this era. In addition, Shen Lingxi refused Shen Nanyan's medicine, so the consequences are naturally different.

Back at Qingyun Pavilion, Aunt Su was crying while asking Yulan to prepare hot water and medicine. Shen Yunzhi next to her also had a dark face. Shen Nanyue smiled and pulled Aunt Su to sit down.

"Mom, don't be busy. It's not that serious. The blood is fake. How could I be so stupid to stand there and let Shen Lingxi hit me? Look, the wound is very small."

Aunt Su was stunned and quickly stretched her neck to check Shen Nanyue's wound. Shen Yunzhi also came over.

Sure enough, after wiping off the bright red blood, the wound was indeed smaller than expected, but it was still broken. Now not only was there a wound, but there was also a small bump on the smooth forehead.

"What's so small about it? It's such a big bump, I don't know how long it will take to go away."

"Don't worry, Auntie. I'll go boil some eggs. You can rub the Fifth Miss well, and it will be gone by tomorrow."

Yulan came in with hot water and comforted Aunt Su as she put it down.

"Okay, then go and cook a few more. You said it wasn't serious, but it looks like it's turning purple. It's New Year's Eve in a few days, and I don't know if it will recover."

"Mom, whether it can be cured or not, we still have to celebrate the New Year. Anyway, it doesn't affect going out to eat, it's not a problem."

"If you don't want to treat Shen Lingxi, just refuse directly. Why let yourself get hurt? Don't do this next time."

Shen Yunzhi placed a cup of hot tea in Aunt Su's hand.

"I know my brother loves me, but that's what Daddy wants. The more the Lu family disobeys, the more we should obey. That way, Daddy's heart will soon tip in our favor."

"There's no hope for the Lu family now. With the Lu family down, the Lu family's good days are over. It's only a matter of time before my father divorces her."

"That's not necessarily true. Shen Lingxi is not simple. By the way, mother, if daddy divorces Lu, are you willing to be the mistress?"

"Ah I……"

The brother and sister were talking peacefully when Shen Nanyan suddenly brought up Aunt Su, who was stunned for a moment.

"Are you willing to be the mistress?"

"This...is this what I can think of? I..."

"Why not? My brother has made great achievements now, and the Su family has established a firm foothold in Shangjing City. Now that my uncle and cousins ​​are out, who would not give them some respect? We are not the same as before. Mother, you really can think about it."

"Mother, what Yan'er said makes sense. I'm just a mistress, not a luxury. But it's okay if you don't want to. Although my son's last name is Shen, I don't want you to give up yourself for us. If you want to leave the Shen family, that's fine too. You can live your own free life. Thanks to Yan'er, all of this can be achieved."

Having seen the dirty tricks in the backyard, Shen Yunzhi really felt that it was not impossible for Aunt Su to leave.

If Aunt Su could return to the Su family and just be a leisurely young lady at home, living with her brothers and sisters, happily enjoying her old age, it would be better than living happily in the backyard of the Shen family.

"I haven't thought about it."

"Then you can think about it now. Whether you want to stay in the Shen family as the mistress or return to the Su family as a lady, your brother and I support you."

After applying the medicine in Aunt Su's yard, Shen Yunzhi sent Shen Nanyue back to the yard. Aunt Su sent the two of them out and leaned against the door looking at the backs of the two children. What they had just said kept replaying in her mind.

If she really had a choice, she would naturally want to leave. When she was young, she also had the dream of wandering around the world, but that was a long time ago.

Shen Yunzhi stayed by Shen Nanyue's bedside until she fell asleep, then he gently got up and left. The New Year was just a few days away, so Shen Yunzhi began to rest. He didn't have to go to the military camp tomorrow, so he felt completely relaxed. But in fact, he still wanted to go to the battle and earn more merits so that he would be better able to protect the people he wanted to protect, just like today. If Shen Nanyue didn't want to listen to Shen Zongyuan's arrangements, she didn't have to use this method.

After Shen Yunzhi left, the yard gradually became quiet. Shen Nanyue's door was quietly pushed open, and Lu Jiusi appeared in a black robe.

Such a dark night, such an inky color, made his skin look even whiter, as white as the finest mutton-fat jade. When he saw Shen Nanyue, his eyes became ignorant, gentle, clean, and pure... just like a baby's eyes.

Lu Jiusi stood in the outer room for a moment, until the coldness on his body was forced away by his internal force, then he stepped into the inner room. When his deep eyes saw the white forehead band on Shen Nanyan's head, his pupils shrank and his steps quickened. He received a message from the housekeeper Zhao saying that Shen Nanyan was injured, so he rushed here in a hurry, but he never had the chance to come in. Now looking at her injuries, Lu Jiusi's gentle eyes instantly became cold and sharp, as if he wanted to eat someone.
