Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

Shen Nanyan lifted the old lady's head and laid it on the side, then leaned over her chest and listened. Finally, she took out a pack of silver needles from her sleeve, took off the old lady's shoes and socks, and was about to insert the needles into her toes.

"Yan'er..."

"you dare!"

Aunt Su and Shen Zongyuan exclaimed at the same time, while Mrs. Lu stood aside with ease, her face full of sarcasm. Aunt Lan's expression was even more interesting. She stared at the silver needle in Shen Nanyue's hand, hoping that this needle would kill the old lady directly.

Shen Nanyan just glanced at Caifu and Nanny Yuan, and without any further delay, she pulled Shen Zongyuan's finger and stuffed it into the old lady's mouth. Then, before everyone could react, the thin silver needle was instantly inserted into the old lady's toes.

Caifu and Nanny Yuan stood behind Shen Nanyan, one standing behind her while the other guarded Shen Zongyuan, fearing that someone would disturb Shen Nanyan.

Shen Zongyuan's heart was in his throat. He didn't know when his daughter became so bold. He thought to himself that if something happened to the old lady, he would beat Shen Nanyue to death.

But the daughter in front of him seemed a little different from before. She looked focused and serious, as if she really knew medical skills.

In just a moment, the old lady reacted, and her cloudy eyes slightly woke up. Shen Zongyuan looked at the old lady, as if he couldn't believe it, then turned to look at Shen Nanyue, with surprise and relief on his face.

"Mom, you're finally awake. Are you feeling okay?"

The old lady closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, there was a little light in her eyes, and she looked up at everyone.

"No problem."

It was just two words, but it seemed as if the old lady had used up all her strength.

At this time, the doctor came hurriedly with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

Shen Zongyuan hurriedly asked the doctor to treat the old lady, and Shen Nanyue also began to give the old lady acupuncture. The doctor took her pulse and watched Shen Nanyue's technique.

"Master Shen, the old lady's qi and blood attacked her heart, but now she has recovered. She should be fine after lying down for a few more days, drinking a few doses of soup and nourishing herself."

"Okay, thank you, doctor. Please write me a prescription."

"I'm not the one who should be thanking you. I didn't do anything. But Miss Fifth's acupuncture technique is very skillful, and the needle placement is very accurate. I think she knows some medical skills. If it weren't for her acupuncture, the old lady would be in danger."

The doctor's words made Aunt Lan's face freeze. She didn't expect to be slapped in the face so quickly. Mrs. Lu beside her hurriedly stood up.

"I said Yan'er was calm and composed. It's really thanks to Yan'er that the old lady is safe and sound today. Otherwise, I don't know what others would say about her being wronged."

"My daughter also knows a little bit about it, thank you for the compliment, doctor."

"Fifth Miss has such a keen understanding. I'm afraid her medical skills will surpass mine in the future. Master Shen is very lucky."

The doctor went downstairs to write a prescription. Shen Zongyuan sat down beside the bed and asked about the old lady's condition. However, the old lady stretched out her hand to Shen Nanyue. Shen Nanyue hurried forward and held the old lady.

"Good boy, good."

The old lady didn't say anything else, but everyone knew that from today on, Shen Nanyue would be different in front of the old lady.

Then everyone was asked to leave, and the old lady left Shen Zongyuan alone in the room to talk.

The most nervous person at this time was Mrs. Lu who was outside the door. The old lady was so angry today because Shen Yunyi brought Tang Manrou back and said he wanted to marry Tang Manrou back home. The old lady had always disliked Tang Manrou, so Shen Yunyi talked back to her a few times, which led to what happened today.

"Although Madam is the legitimate daughter of the Lu family, and our Shen family is considered a high-ranking family, it is still not as good as the eldest master's favor. I think this marriage is not bad. Miss Tang is alone, and she will not have such troubles as her mother's family in the future. The eldest master has good taste. Unlike me, Rong Ying, I can only marry into the general's mansion."

"Snapped!"

As soon as Aunt Lan finished speaking, Mrs. Lu turned around and slapped Aunt Lan in the face.

"Bitch, don't forget your status. You are not even as good as a servant, and you are not qualified to make up stories about the legitimate son."

"You... is Madam angry? There's no point in being angry. The eldest son and Miss Tang are already a fait accompli. Now you even have a grandson. Whether Madam is willing or not, this marriage is already sealed."

"Someone, slap me!"

The status of a concubine is only slightly higher than that of a servant, so she really has no right to say such things. However, Aunt Lan has been spoiled and has never taken Lu seriously, so of course she wants to show off her verbal skills.

Soon, Madam Zhao, who was by Lu's side, brought two maids and grabbed Aunt Lan's wrist.

"You are so outrageous, stop it now."

Shen Rongying came over to stop them. In fact, she was angry with Aunt Lan. She had just reconciled with Shen Zongyuan, but now she was causing trouble again. But she was her mother after all, and she couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

Mrs. Lu gave Madam Zhao a look, and Madam Zhao grabbed Shen Rongying and signaled the other two madams to take action. Loud slaps rang out in the yard. Shen Nanyue pulled Aunt Su and stood in the corner tremblingly to watch the show.

This kind of dog-eat-dog drama is really fun to watch.

Aunt Lan's face swelled up instantly, which showed that the two maids showed no mercy at all.

"stop!"

The door opened, but Shen Zongyuan did not appear. Instead, Nanny Yin walked out with a cold face.

"The old lady needs to rest. If you want to beat her or kill her, drag her out and deal with it. Don't dirty her yard."

"Ms. Lan deserves to be punished for her rude remarks, but she certainly shouldn't have done so in the old lady's courtyard. I hope Madam Yin will apologize to my mother on my behalf. Madam Zhao, take her out and beat her."

"Yes, ma'am."

The maids were pulling Aunt Lan to go out, but Shen Rongying grabbed Aunt Lan and cried towards the house.

"Daddy, Daddy, come and save my aunt, she's about to be beaten to death, Daddy... didn't you say you would protect my aunt? She's about to be beaten to death, can you..."

"How could a few slaps take her life?"

Shen Zongyuan's voice came from the door, and then his figure walked out. However, his face no longer had the tension and worry of seeing his beloved being wronged, but his usual calmness.

"Daddy, the lady bullied my aunt. My eldest brother made my grandmother so angry that she fell ill. My aunt just said a few words to him, but the lady had someone beat my aunt. Daddy, you have to stand up for my aunt!"

"Does a concubine like her have the right to comment on the master's affairs?"

Shen Zongyuan's integrity left Shen Rongying and Aunt Lan stunned.

Then Shen Zongyuan looked at Lu again, his voice lowered a few degrees, but still calm.

"She's been beaten, and she knows she's wrong. Stop making a fuss. The old lady needs to rest. Besides, the matter of your good son hasn't been resolved yet."

Although Shen Zongyuan did not help Aunt Lan openly, he also resolved Aunt Lan's crisis. Mrs. Lu glanced at Aunt Lan, and then asked Madam Zhao to let her go. Mrs. Lu would definitely give Shen Zongyuan this face, not only because Shen Zongyuan was the head of the family, but also because she needed Shen Zongyuan to vent his anger about her son's affairs.

"Aunt, what's wrong with you?"

When everyone turned around, they saw that Aunt Lan had fainted on the ground. Her swollen cheeks made her look less mean.
