As expected, it was related to Aunt Wang.
Xiuying pursed her lips and looked at Aunt Wang, who was crying on the ground.
She knew Aunt Wang's personality very well. Not to mention all these years, even her previous life had been peaceful and quiet. Even if Aunt Wang's father was promoted to a sixth rank official, she was still taken in as a concubine because of that. She didn't have the slightest bit of arrogance in her, but that was after her mother passed away.
Furthermore, even if Aunt Wang wanted to harm Aunt Cui, would she be so stupid as to directly grab hold of her weakness?
Xiuying raised her head to look at Mrs Feng. Just as she was about to inquire about the situation, a greeting sounded in the courtyard. Master Shen rushed into the house with an ashen face, cursed at the slut and kicked Aunt Wang's shoulder.
Mrs Feng stood up in shock. Aunt Wang was kicked until she cried out in grief and fell to the ground, unable to get up.
Master Shen was about to make a move, but Mrs Feng quickly stopped him, "Even if you are angry, you should still pay attention to your identity."
His parents were in a concubine's room in Central Europe. Even if his concubine was in the wrong, if word of this got out, someone would definitely catch him.
Master Shen stopped his actions abruptly and saw that his eldest daughter was also there, holding a pair of bright eyes and looking at him. He also felt that his actions were inappropriate, so he restrained himself before turning and sitting down. It was a rare occasion for him to be concerned about Xiuying. "I heard that you and Third Bro went out today. It's so fun outside."
"Yes, it's pretty good." Xiuying bowed to him and retreated behind Mrs Feng.
Master Shen was provoked by her estrangement, but with Mrs Feng in front of him, it wasn't good for him to flare up. His eyes were filled with confusion.
"née Wang is cruel and merciless. You can lock her up in the future." When Master Shen thought of the smell of blood in Aunt Cui's room, his eyes almost spouted fire. I will write to the Wang family and tell your father that Aunt Cui will take care of Brother Xiang in the future. "
Aunt Wang's father was a ninth rank official in the south. She was the youngest in the family and was a pitiful person who her father had used to exchange for her future. After she became a concubine in Shen Family, her father had indeed risen from the seventh rank due to his Shen Family.
Aunt Wang immediately cried out that she had been wronged, but Master Shen steeled his heart and didn't even look at her.
Mrs Feng's gaze turned cold as she asked, "Master, what did you say? Brother Xiang was taken care of by Aunt Cui?! Master, did you take Brother Xiang to pacify Aunt Cui? "
Even though Mrs Feng did not make a sound, Xiuying was also aware that something was amiss.
Her mother hadn't told her that Brother Xiang would be remembered as her direct descendant, but Xin Mei had hinted to her several times that the matter regarding Brother Xiang's direct descendant must be settled. How did he end up being given to Aunt Cui in the blink of an eye?
In his previous life, there was no mention of Aunt Cui's pregnancy or Brother Xiang's being remembered, but now, these two things were related?!
Xiuying was confused. Master Shen suddenly remembered something he had agreed to after Mrs Feng asked him. Aunt Cui slipped. He wanted to make it up to her for the loss of her son, so he immediately asked for it. But now, it was not a good time to explain …
Master Shen pursed his lips and didn't say anything. Mrs Feng's pretty eyebrows gradually raised and her gaze towards him became sharper.
"Cloud Zither …" Master Shen couldn't sit still anymore under her gaze. He couldn't remain silent, "Brother Xiang still remembers your name, call Aunt Cui to keep first …" He found it hard to speak.
Mrs Feng sneered, "She, Aunt Cui, is so lucky. We only have one and she's already making up for it?!" "Remember my name, and allow a concubine to raise you. Old master, you can afford to embarrass me, but I can't afford to humiliate you!"
"Mrs Feng!" Master Shen's voice sank.
These words were too unpleasant to hear.
However, Xiuying's eyes lit up when she heard this.
It's weird here!
"What a coincidence." Xiuying stood up from behind Mrs Feng and looked up at her. "Mother only said that she wanted my younger brother to be reared in front of her, but Aunt Cui became pregnant. No one knows for two months. This was how everyone knew that the child was gone again. Mother, there's only one brother at home, I like him. "
Xiuying's words made Master Shen's heart skip a beat. Mrs Feng's eyes were filled with shock. She raised her hand to stroke her hair. Unexpectedly, her daughter was able to see the twisted problems within it.
Aunt Wang, who had originally been depressed, threw herself at Master Shen's feet when she heard this. She hugged him and cried, "Master, today, I just went to congratulate Sister Cui. She stood up and I went to help her up. Then she fell to the ground! There are only two people in the room, Sister Cui and I, and I are unable to identify them. But please think about it, Master, I really want to harm her, why use such a clumsy method! "
"Shut up!" Master Shen gritted his teeth, "How many cases have I decided? Many of them are those clumsy methods of deliberately deceiving people to numb the hearts of others and make them feel that he shouldn't have done that!"
Master Shen was telling the truth again, not to mention Aunt Cui was pregnant. She was a concubine and didn't have a son. Perhaps a single child was precious enough to be a mother, so she should be able to protect her in every possible way.
Aunt Wang's eyes were filled with tears. She felt that many of the men who slept together day and night were very strange to her.
He was sure that she had killed Aunt Cui with just one sentence, but she hadn't. She had a son, and her son was immediately taken as his heir. There was no need for her to do anything unnecessary. Who didn't know that Madam hated Aunt Cui? Even if Aunt Cui gave birth to a son, without Madam, she would still be a concubine!
No more than her son!
Aunt Wang's heart turned cold as she sat back. Tears kept dripping down her face, leaving small puddles of water on the stone floor.
When Mrs Feng saw Aunt Wang acting like this, she felt pity for her. She knew that this matter was suspicious. But she had to figure out where to start.
A small figure suddenly rushed forward and pulled Aunt Wang's arm, asking her to get up.
"Aunt, you didn't do anything wrong. Why did you ask him? He doesn't believe you …" "Xiuying was so excited that her face turned red and her eyes turned red." He doesn't believe you, so no matter how much you beg, he won't believe you! "
Xiuying's last sentence was practically a roar. Her tiny body was also trembling non-stop, and her face was filled with a shocking, sorrowful expression.
She was moved by the scene and thought of everything that had happened before she died. She also kept begging Lee Qingzhao to believe her, but did he believe her?! These men, their hearts are biased, they will never side with you!
Aunt Wang was being pulled by her. She looked at her in a daze, as if she had been shocked by Xiuying's outrageous words. However, there was a storm in her heart. Xiuying's words hit the nail on the head, causing her heart to ache intensely. The pain was then slowly shattered bit by bit into anger. That's right, if a person didn't want to believe you, then that person wouldn't believe you. Even if the person's mouth was filled with words of love, it would only be for a short time.
How could she only see clearly now?
Xiuying was still holding onto Aunt Wang, trying to get her to stand up. The answer was obvious. Aunt Cui was two months pregnant, yet she didn't say anything. The moment she said she was pregnant, her child would be gone. How could there be such a coincidence!? Furthermore, the little girl beside her had secretly sneakily asked for some medicine … The room was still heavy with incense!
Xiuying suddenly recalled what she saw in the garden and looked anxiously at Mrs Feng.
The little girl had already shed tears without her realizing it, so Mrs Feng had already thought it through. She looked at Master Shen and clenched her fists tightly. "Master, there are two things I have to say …"
