Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

On the second day after the funeral, mourners came in an endless stream. When Shen Nanyan looked up, she saw the young man Yue Hanzhou. Just like in his previous life, he had a gentle complexion, was humble and polite, and his every word and action showed the demeanor of a young master from a noble family.

Thinking of what he had done to her and her child in the previous life, Shen Nanyan wanted to rush to him and cut open his chest with a knife to see if he had a heart. What kind of beast could do that to his own child?

Shen Nanyan gritted her teeth and suppressed the surging cruelty in her heart.

After bowing, Yue Hanzhou's eyes immediately locked on Shen Lingxi. The silky eyes could make people feel the scorching temperature. The two had been engaged since childhood, and they were only waiting for Shen Lingxi to reach the age of marriage before the two families began to arrange the marriage. But now that Old Master Shen has passed away, Shen Lingxi has to observe mourning for three years. In this way, she is said to be old. Fortunately, she has already been engaged. As long as the Yue family has no objection, this matter will not be delayed.

Mrs. Lu was about to ask Yue Hanzhou to go to the side room for tea, but Shen Zongyuan spoke up and asked Shen Lingxi to accompany Yue Hanzhou for a walk in the garden.

Shen Zongyuan not only gave the two a chance to talk, but also felt sorry for his daughter who had been kneeling here for most of the day, and wanted to let her take a break. However, Shen Lingxi was unwilling in her heart, but her face was very submissive. When she stood up and looked at Yue Hanzhou, she was still a bit shy like a girl, which made Yue Hanzhou's heart flutter.

This is where Shen Lingxi is smart. In fact, she has already hooked up with the third grandson of the emperor and is not willing to marry into the Yue family at all. However, she cannot bring this up, otherwise it will make her seem heartless. So even if she is disgusted in her heart, she does not show it on her face at all, which makes Yue Hanzhou devoted to her.

Watching the two people leaving, Shen Nanyan's eyes were cold, and every bit of her past life surfaced in her mind again. Her hands hidden in her sleeves clenched into fists. She wished she could take a knife and stab this pair of dogs in the heart, watching their blood drain away bit by bit, and they die in agony.

Yue Hanzhou, who had already walked out, felt a chill on his back. He looked back unconsciously, but found nothing.

[Big sister, big sister... Shen... Shen Nanyan, wake up, I can't stay here any longer, damn it, please stop!]

In her mind, Wu You's voice interrupted Shen Nanyan's thoughts.

How can you talk to me?

"Big sister, your hands are clasped together, so why can't I talk to you? I know you're angry, but don't be angry yet. Your resentment makes the Qiankun Pearl cold and piercing. Do you want to kill me?"

[No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I was distracted. Sorry.]

"I told you, we are one. Everything else is fine, but your strong resentment will affect me. This won't do. I have to go find old man Yanwang and see if he has any magic weapons."

Can he give it to you?

【If you don’t give, I’ll rob you, and if you don’t give, I’ll steal you. 】

【By the way, can you help me find someone? 】

Me? Now?

[No, forget it. I was just asking.]

The voice in her mind disappeared, and just when Shen Nanyan was about to release her palm, Wu You's voice sounded again.

[I'm not sure if it's possible. Tell me your name first and let's try. If it doesn't work, we can find another way.]

[Thank you for your hard work. His name is Wang Shutai and he lives in the west of the city.]

[Okay, I'll talk to you later. Please control your emotions and don't make others feel guilty. I'll really scold you.]

【it is good. 】

After Shen Nanyan released her palm, she remembered that Wu You only said that he would find her later. How could she find him?

The number of guests decreased until the evening. Aunt Su helped Shen Nanyue up and rubbed her knees with heartache. The eldest daughter Shen Lingxi never appeared again after she left with Yue Hanzhou. The second daughter Shen Rongying had always been weak and was called away by Shen Zongyuan after kneeling for not long. Only her daughter knelt for the whole day. Aunt Su's heart was broken. She blamed herself for being incompetent and letting her daughter suffer with her.

Shen Nanyan took Aunt Su's hand, shook her head at her, and then took Aunt Su back to the yard.

Xifeng Garden, just by listening to the name you can tell that it is not a proper courtyard, it is just a shabby and remote place. Aunt Su was arranged here. Not to mention Shen Zongyuan, even the servants were too lazy to come here.

The courtyard was the same as Shen Nanyan's. Except for a personal maid, the rest were all Lu's people. They all relied on Lu's family to bully Aunt Su. Now seeing Shen Nanyan coming back with Aunt Su, they didn't move at all and didn't even say a word. Aunt Su was used to it. Shen Nanyan just glanced at them without saying a word. The mother and daughter went into the house, and only the maid Yue'e brought them water for them to wash.

Shen Nanyan felt sad when she looked at the things in Aunt Su's room. After all, she had given birth to two children for the Shen family, but her life was not even as good as Aunt Lan's, who had no son.

"Mom, do you have any money?"

Aunt Su paused and her eyes turned red.

"What...what did you call me?"

“Mom…”

Aunt Su walked over quickly and covered Shen Nanyan's mouth.

"Don't call me that. If someone hears it, I'll be punished by kneeling in the ancestral hall."

"Mom, we are alone right now. If we were in front of outsiders, I wouldn't scream."

"My yard is drafty on all sides. It's not a place where you can talk freely."

"My voice is so small, don't worry, mother."

"What do you want the silver for? But you want to buy some jewelry."

After Aunt Su's reminder, Shen Nanyan thought of a way to get the money.

"Mother, brother can't go on like this. Mrs. Lu is just flattering him and turning him into a loser so that he won't compete with her son for everything in the Shen family. Mother, all the brothers in the Shen family don't have to share, but brother must have his own life. If he continues like this, what awaits him... In short, we must change brother and let him concentrate on his studies."

Aunt Su's tears fell even harder. She didn't expect that her daughter had come to her senses and understood Lu's flattery and criticism. She was no longer alone and helpless.

"Yan'er has grown up, and I'm very happy. I still have some money, and I'll give it all to you. But no matter what you do, you must ensure your own safety. The Lu family is not that easy to deal with."

"I've thought of a way to get the money. You don't need my help. The children of the Lu family will be careful. You don't have to worry. The situation in our courtyards is similar. Please be patient. When there is a clue about my brother's matter, I will come to help you find a solution."

"You...but you are..."

"Mom, my daughter is already twelve years old. Some girls get married at the age of twelve, so don't worry about her."

That night, the mother and daughter talked for a long time, saying everything they had not said in their previous life. Shen Nanyan also fully understood her mother during the conversation. Although she was weak, she loved her son very much. She loved and protected herself and Shen Yunzhi with all her heart. In her previous life, she also gave up everything to win the favor of Shen Zongyuan and gain some love for her children, but was discovered by Aunt Lan, who finally joined forces with Lu to kill Aunt Su.

In her next life, Shen Nanyan not only wants her mother and brother to be alive, but also wants them to live with dignity and meaning.

After the funeral, everyone was exhausted. Shen Nanyan returned to the yard, took off her shoes without even taking off her clothes, and fell asleep on the bed. She didn't have to work so hard, but she wanted to do it for Shen Zongyuan and her grandmother to see. They were not blind, and after this funeral, their views of herself and her brother would change.
