Reborn as the Regent's Beloved

If it weren't for the occasion, Xiao Fengyi would always reach out and applaud.

She now truly admires her younger sister for turning the situation around.

Looking at Shen Huimin, whose reputation had been completely ruined and who was now universally despised, Xiao Fengyi curled her lips into a smile.

"You, you, you wretched girl, you have brought shame to the Shen family and have failed all the teachings I have given you."

It must be said that Xiao Qingyin's actions completely dispelled Madam Shen's doubts. At first, she was hesitant, but now she was furious.

She always thought she treated all daughters, whether they were concubines or legitimate daughters, the same as everyone else, but she never expected that she would end up like this.

One or two people are so vicious that they actually want to kill her.

"Guards, drag these two wretches out and beat them severely, and the rest of them too..."

According to Madam Shen, since they dared to make a move, they should be taught a lesson.

Madam Shen's cold voice, coupled with the imposing aura of the matriarch, instilled fear in Song and the others, who hurriedly kowtowed and admitted their mistakes.

A servant came up and tried to pull the group out, but just then, a clear and melodious voice rang out.

"Grandma, wait a minute."

These words made the servants pause in their work, look at her, and finally look hesitantly at Old Madam Shen.

After all, Madam Shen is the matriarch of the household.

"Is there anything else?" Old Madam Shen asked, her voice slightly displeased.

Although Xiao Fengyi saved her, she was still somewhat dissatisfied that her decision had been interrupted.

"Grandmother, this isn't over yet!"

"It's not over yet, Feng girl, what else is there?" Even Old Master Shen couldn't help but speak up this time.

Looking at his granddaughter, he had a hint of confusion on his face.

His gaze was sharp, as if he wanted to pierce through Xiao Fengyi's heart.

Xiao Fengyi calmly met Old Master Shen's gaze, then clapped her fair little hand twice.

Her actions puzzled everyone, but they also realized that she had probably discovered something else.

Madam Shen waved her hand, and the servants stood aside. Then the door opened, and the Shen family's steward walked in.

Looking at the stack of account books he was holding, Old Master Shen and his wife exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with doubt.

"What does it mean?"

Seeing the steward put the account book aside, Old Madam Shen looked at Xiao Fengyi and asked.

“Grandmother, let the steward speak for himself!” Xiao Fengyi stepped aside.

The butler took out one of the ledgers and handed it over.

"Reporting to Master and Madam, according to my investigation, the bribed funds were all withdrawn from the ledgers. Please take a look."

The two were puzzled. Old Master Shen took the account book, glanced at it, and his expression changed drastically.

Then he threw the account book on the ground, a sudden action that startled Madam Shen and everyone present.

Of course, this does not include Xiao Fengyi, who looked completely confident.

Grandpa Shen looked at Shen Yu sitting there with a face full of disappointment.

The old master's actions puzzled everyone. Madam Shen looked at the butler and asked, "Tell me, what exactly happened?"

The icy voice made the butler shudder, and he hurriedly replied.

"Reporting to the old lady, these were all expenses that the young master paid out back then."

"What?" This sentence startled Old Madam Shen, and at the same time, her chest heaved with anger.

This proves that his poisoning was also related to his biological son.

The two elders of the Shen family were shocked. One was so angry that his chest heaved, and the other was so angry that his face turned ashen.

Seeing this, Xiao Fengyi realized something was wrong and quickly beckoned to the servants around her, "Quickly bring some water."

Immediately, a maidservant quickly poured two cups of water.

Xiao Fengyi took out the Qingxin Pill from her bosom and fed it to the two old people.

After taking the pills, the two elderly people finally recovered after a while.

The two looked at each other, and both saw a chill in each other's eyes.

They never imagined that their own son was involved in this.

In an instant, they both felt a chill run through their bodies.

Of course, they didn't forget that it was Xiao Fengyi who saved them again.

Madam Shen gently patted Xiao Fengyi's hand.

Before he could say anything, his mouth was slightly open, but Xiao Fengyi stopped him.

"Grandma, Grandpa, calm down, calm down. It's not worth getting sick from getting angry."

"Ugh!"

The old lady sighed heavily. She felt an even greater fondness and dependence on Xiao Fengyi.

Although everyone made her feel disheartened, thankfully, her love for her granddaughter was not in vain.

If we hadn't given them their medication in time, they probably would have suffered a heart attack and become paralyzed from the stress.

"Grandmother knows, don't worry, this little thing won't break me."

Madam Shen looked dejected.

"Shen Yu."

Suddenly, Madam Shen raised her voice.

As she spoke, Shen Yu suddenly stood up. "Is what the housekeeper said true?"

Faced with her mother's questioning, Shen Yu looked flustered and avoided eye contact.

"Say!"

Old Master Shen slammed his hand heavily on the table, the sound so loud that the other person knelt down with a thud.

He looked around, his gaze finally settling on his daughter and wife standing to the side.

At this moment, Shen Yu seemed to have made up his mind. He raised his head, faced his mother's somewhat unpleasant expression, and nodded.

"It was Mother. I did it. It has nothing to do with anyone else."

Shen Yu had his own plans. He thought that no matter what, Madam Shen was his parents and he was their son. Even if he was disappointed, they couldn't do anything to him.

But wives and children are different.

The Shen family elders were furious, and it was highly likely that his wife would be divorced and his daughter would be kicked out of the house, thus instantly shattering their family.

At this moment, Shen Yu's responsibilities as a husband and father made him shoulder all the burdens.

These words shocked not only those present, but also Song Shi and Shen Huimin.

Song looked at her husband with tears welling up in her eyes.

I always thought my husband was a coward, but I never expected him to take on all the responsibilities today.

Shen Huimin thought the same thing, and looked at her father with gratitude in her eyes.

Xiao Fengyi watched the father and son being kind and filial, and sneered inwardly.

Hmph, do you think this matter is over just because one person took the blame?

Xiao Fengyi fiddled with a jade pendant at her waist, secretly thinking to herself.

Nothing is more devastating than a son's cruelty towards him.

At this moment, Madam Shen looked deeply shocked.

Looking at her usually well-behaved and obedient son, she was filled with disbelief.

I just can't believe my son would do something like this.

Seeing her son's resolute expression, Old Madam Shen was utterly disappointed.
