Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

Seeing that Tang Manrou still didn't say a word, Shen Yunyi bent down, suppressed his temper and explained to her calmly. It was not that Shen Yunyi was very patient, but the old lady fainted from anger today, and Shen Zongyuan also confined her feet, so nothing could happen again now.

What's more, women, once they have children, will eventually have to compromise. Now they just want a way out.

"In a few months, I will take the imperial examination again. I will definitely pass it. Even if you are a concubine, you are still a noble concubine, no more noble than those maids who share the same room with me."

"Why did you lie to me?"

"When did I lie to you?"

"You said you would marry me, but you ended up marrying me. You said you only loved me, but now you're thinking of marrying someone else."

"This... no, how dare you blame me for this? It's because you don't even have a family to support yourself. You're an orphan with no one to rely on. It's a blessing for you to be with me. Otherwise, you'd still be hanging around beggars, fighting for food with dogs. You want to open a dyeing factory after being given some color. You really think you're still a lady from a wealthy family, dreaming of becoming my, Shen Yunyi's, legal wife. I tell you, you can be my concubine if you want, or get out if you don't want to, and don't bother me in the future."

As he spoke, Shen Yunyi's face turned cold and he shook off Tang Manrou's hand.

In fact, Shen Yunyi and Tang Manrou were just playing around. He had someone he liked, but that person was impossible for him, so he took Tang Manrou back home to piss that person off, but he didn't expect that the person who was even more angry today was himself.

So at this moment his patience had been exhausted, and he spoke without any reservation, literally tearing Tang Manrou's heart apart and making her bleed like a river.

Shen Yunyi didn't care about all this and turned around to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, followed by a crisp cracking sound in the hall.

"Master!"

"Yun Yi!"

The fear on Lu's face was obvious, and she almost fell down when she ran over.

Shen Yunyi fell to the ground as soft as a cooked noodle. The hall was in chaos in an instant. The maids and old women gathered around, but no one could wake Shen Yunyi up.

"Call the doctor, call the doctor quickly, and then call the master, quickly."

Mrs. Lu pulled Madam Zhao, her face ferocious and terrifying. Madam Zhao hurried out to make arrangements, while Mrs. Lu turned around and slapped Tang Manrou's face several times, causing the corners of Tang Manrou's lips to bleed.

Shen Nanyan and Aunt Su entered the hall under the guidance of Shen Zongyuan, and were shocked by the scene in front of them.

"Master, wow, wow... That bitch, he beat up our Yun Yi, and he bled so much. What will I do if anything happens to Yun Yi? How will I survive?"

Lu threw herself into Shen Zongyuan's arms and cried. When Shen Nanyan saw Lu throwing herself at him, Shen Zongyuan took two steps back. Even when Lu was crying, there was an expression of disgust on his face.

"Okay, I'm here. Yun Yi will be fine. Is the doctor here?"

As Shen Zongyuan spoke, he pushed Lu away and took the opportunity to visit Shen Yunyi to quickly distance himself from Lu.

Shen Yunyi had been carried to the back hall, and the doctor was bandaging him. Shen Nanyan took a look and saw that although there was bleeding, the injury should not be serious. She thought that Tang Manrou was just venting her anger and did not really want to kill anyone.

After the doctor's examination, he found out that there was nothing serious, and Mrs. Lu stopped crying. Everyone sat down in the front hall. Mrs. Lu turned her head to look at Aunt Zhao. Aunt Zhao walked to Tang Manrou, pulled her to the ground with force, and made her kneel like a sinner.

"How dare a murderer sit here, sir? Send her to the authorities. She is a murderer."

After all, she was the daughter of his old friend. Although Shen Zongyuan hated her in his heart, he felt sorry for her being alone and did not speak for a long time.

"Master, this woman seduced Yun Yi with the intention of entering our Shen family. Keeping her here will cause endless trouble."

"Rou'er, uncle wants to hear what you have to say."

Shen Zongyuan ignored Lu and turned his gaze to Tang Manrou who was kneeling on the ground.

"Rou'er is just angry. Brother Yun Yi clearly said that he would marry me, but now he has changed to taking a concubine. He is lying to me. I am not willing to accept this, so I attacked him."

"If he says he'll marry you, do you believe him? Does that mean he's already in charge of the Shen family? We elders are dead. You're such a brainless person, how can you take such words seriously?"

Naturally, Mrs. Lu wanted to protect her son, so she pushed all the problems onto Tang Manrou, blaming her for not knowing how to distinguish truth from falsehood.

"That's enough. Your son deceived her, and she was wronged. Not only do you not feel sorry for her being alone and helpless, but you also blame her like this. Do you behave like an elder?"

"Master, then I...wasn't I also angry that she attacked Yun Yi? Am I not angry? So is this damn kid. Why couldn't she talk to Rou'er properly? She had to lie to the girl. Now things have turned out like this, and both of them are upset. But Rou'er, although these words are hard to hear, they are not wrong. Yun Yi has a promising career in the future, and he has to marry someone who can help him. You understand this truth, right? Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the child in your belly. If Yun Yi has a smooth career, your child will also have a good future. It's better than the whole family suffering, right?"

After calming down, Mrs. Lu used her two-faced tricks again. She couldn't make things too embarrassing. The most important thing was that in Shen Zongyuan's heart, Tang Manrou was not the daughter of an ordinary family. Even if it was to ease the relationship with Shen Zongyuan, Mrs. Lu had to accept Tang Manrou. Anyway, how long she could survive under her command depended on her fate.

Shen Nanyan and Aunt Su sat aside drinking tea the whole time, watching the game between Lu and Tang Manrou, and also watching Shen Zongyuan's anxiety. For the first time, Shen Nanyan felt the difficulties her father had faced.

In the end, Tang Manrou compromised.

She had to compromise. She was already married to Shen Yunyi and was pregnant. She couldn't just pretend nothing had happened. She had to settle down first. She had to think carefully about the future. Anyway, she didn't want to be a concubine forever.

Three days later, according to Mrs. Lu's wishes, Tang Manrou entered the mansion through a small door. She had nothing with her but an ordinary sedan chair. She didn't even have a maid by her side.

Shen Nanyanyi sat in the pavilion by the lake, watching from afar as the sedan chair carried Tang Manrou into Zijuan Pavilion, with a piercing coldness in her eyes.

In the previous life, after Tang Manrou framed her brother, she fell in love with Yue Hanzhou's younger brother and finally entered the Yue family. She even said that she couldn't bear to leave her, so she entered the Yue family with her so that the two sisters could be companions. Later, Shen Nanyan found out that her mother-in-law made her get up at the hour of Yin every day, stand in the corridor, wash clothes with cold water in winter, collect dew to make tea, and so on. All the misfortunes came from her good sister Tang Manrou.

In this life, she did not harm her brother and married Shen Yunyi. Did this change the trajectory of her life? But I don’t know how long she can survive under the control of the Lu family.

However, even if Mrs. Lu took action, Shen Nanyue was too lazy to pay attention to her. As long as she didn't harm Shen Yunzhi, she could do whatever she wanted. If such a person stayed in the Shen family, who knew how much trouble she would cause.

In mid-May, war reports came from the border of Yujing Kingdom. Yue Hanzhou volunteered to go there. Yue Hanzhou had been to the border twice with his father, so the emperor wanted to train him and agreed to his request.
