In the Lanzhi Courtyard, Shen Yuyan cried and cried in Meng's room for an afternoon, and Meng, who was not looking good, had an even more headache when she heard her cry like this.

Meng had no choice but to let Mama Li tell Shen Yuyan about her poisoning.

"What-" Shen Yuyan suddenly stood up from the stool and looked at Meng Shi in surprise, "Mother, you prepared that poison yourself?"

Meng Shi's face was still a little pale lying on the bed, but he couldn't hide the ruthlessness on his face: "If you don't be cruel to yourself, our mother and daughter won't be able to turn over, Shen Yanshu's cheap hooves are more difficult to deal with than we imagined." ”

Shen Yuyan couldn't believe it: "But it's poison, if you are not careful, ......"

"Don't worry, I won't be so reckless without perfect preparation. Meng said, "Anyway, we made the right bet this time." ”

"Why did my mother hide it from me, I really thought it was Shen Yanshu who poisoned you. Shen Yuyan asked with a pout.

Meng Shi stared at Shen Yuyan and said, "If you let you know, maybe you will be exposed, and you won't be able to hide it." ”

Although Shen Yuyan felt uncomfortable, she didn't continue to dwell on this matter, and the thought that Shen Yanshu actually whipped her with a whip made her angry.

"Mother, as long as Shen Yanshu is still in the Shen family for a day, we won't have a day of peace, I really wish she would never appear!" she said through gritted teeth.

Meng said: "How many times have I told you, don't act rashly, don't do it if you are not eighty percent sure, and don't be too impulsive." ”

Shen Yuyan said: "Where would I have thought that this Shen Yanshu would be hidden deeply, this temperament is too much worse than before, and I always feel like a different person." ”

Meng Shi, who originally thought something was a little strange, heard Shen Yuyan say this, as if he had been suddenly woken up, and suddenly turned his head to look at Shen Yuyan: "What did you just say?"

Shen Yuyan was frightened by Meng's expression, thought for a while, and said, "I said, Shen Yanshu's temperament is much worse than before...... It always feels like a different person. ”

"Yes! ahem—" Meng slapped the bed excitedly, but forgot that he hadn't recovered yet, and coughed a few times.

"Madame!" Mama Li hurriedly stepped forward to help her calm down.

Meng Shi coughed and suddenly laughed: "I know how to drive Shen Yanshu out of the Shen family." ”

Shen Yuyan and Mama Li glanced at each other, and both looked at Meng Shi suspiciously.

It wasn't dark yet, but twilight was beginning to fall, and the purple clouds on the horizon slowly lost their light, and the lanterns in the house lit up.

The two mothers-in-law who guarded put a food box into the ancestral hall, and the food still had to be given, otherwise if the third lady really starved to death, it would have to be counted on their heads at that time.

The green kite stepped forward to open the food box and saw that there was only gruel inside, which was so rare that it was difficult to find a few grains of rice.

In a fit of rage, she opened the door and threw the food box out, and with a "bang", the plates inside were broken, which startled the two mothers-in-law.

"Hey, you little, you dare to throw out the third lady's dinner, do you have to starve your young lady to death!" a woman scolded.

Qing Kite snorted coldly: "If you are hungry for our young lady, the old lady will definitely not let you go!" The second master didn't say anything to let our young lady eat this kind of thing, if the old lady knows, he will definitely punish you heavily!"

"It's against you!" the woman scolded, but her heart became empty, "You threw it out yourself, what does it have to do with us, even if you master and servant die of hunger, it has nothing to do with us!"

"If something happens to us, the old lady will be the first to punish you, do you think we can escape!" said the green kite.

When Mo Jiang came over with the food box, he saw the green kite and the two mothers-in-law scolding each other, originally thought that this girl would only cry and cry, but I didn't expect that the scolding was quite powerful at this time.

He shook his head helplessly, he really couldn't listen to the chatter and noise of these women, and fell directly behind the two mothers-in-law, and knocked them out with one palm.

He was just about to put the food box in front of the door, when he suddenly felt something unusual behind him, turned around, and dodged the man's attack, and at the same time stretched out his legs and swept over, intending to trip the man, but the man jumped up lightly and fought with him.

The two mothers-in-law outside did not scold, but there was more sound of fighting, Shen Yanshu hurriedly stood up from the ground to support the wall, pushed the door open, and saw Xiyan and Mojiang who were entangled together.

"Stop!" Shen Yanshu said.

When Mo Jiang and Xi Yan heard Shen Yanshu say this, they all let go.

"Miss, are you okay?" Xiyan saw Shen Yanshu, who was pale, and hurriedly stepped forward.

Shen Yanshu shook his head: "How did you find here?"

"I heard that something happened to you on the way, so I hurried back, and when I returned to the dark fragrance house, Chaoyan said that the three of you were locked up in the ancestral hall, so I came over, and then I saw him sneaking in front of the door and didn't know what to do. Xi Yan said and pointed to Mojiang.

Qing Kite saw that Mo Jiang was still holding a food box in his hand, which was exactly the same as the one sent yesterday, and she suddenly said, "You won't be the one who brought us food and medicine yesterday, right?"

Mo Jiang didn't speak, silently put the food box on the ground, and then turned around and disappeared into the night in the courtyard.

"Miss, what is he ......" Xiyan was a little surprised, and at the same time a little worried.

"Leave him alone. Shen Yanshu pulled her into the ancestral hall, asked Qing Kite to bring the food box in, and then closed the door.

The night is thick, and the Shen Mansion is quiet and peaceful.

"Miss, this Meng mother and daughter are too much, and they have been making trouble for you again and again, so let's leave this Shen family. When Xiyan heard what Shen Yanshu had encountered these days, she couldn't help but be worried.

Shen Yanshu shook his head: "Since I am the young lady of the Shen family, I can't just leave, and there is no better place for us to go except the Shen family." ”

"But ......"

"Okay, don't talk about this, will you gain anything from going to Jiangnan?" Shen Yanshu was more concerned about this.

Xiyan glanced back at Qingyuan and Qinglan, who were sleeping, before lowering her voice and saying, "Miss, I went to the Moon Mountain you mentioned, but I didn't find Nie Dong and Nie Liang as you said, there is only one temple halfway up the mountain, and the temple is full of monks." ”

Shen Yanshu was also a little surprised: "How is it possible?"

Xiyan continued: "Then I went and asked the monks in the temple if anyone knew these two people, and no one knew them. At last I asked the abbot, and the abbot said that they were no longer there, and that if they came back, he would hand over the letter on their behalf. ”

Shen Yanshu shook his head and said, "Impossible, they won't leave Moon Mountain." ”

"But I really didn't find them. Xiyan said with some self-reproach, "I'm sorry Miss, things didn't work out." ”

"It's not your fault, maybe it's because they don't want to reveal their identity. Shen Yanshu said, "But no matter what, I still have to go to the Moon Mountain in person, by the way, how is the affairs of the Xiao family?"

"Speaking of this, it's even more outrageous!" Xiyan sighed, "It turns out that the Xiao family didn't know that Xiao Yinyin left a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses back then, and they thought that Xiao Yinyin was a mother and son who died, and they hadn't had any contact with the Shen family for so many years, so naturally they didn't know the existence of the Shen family's siblings." ”

Shen Yanshu felt a little unbelievable when he heard it: "How could you not know?"

Xiyan told her that when she went to Jiangning Mansion, she heard that the Xiao family is now a very famous local wealthy merchant clan in Jiangnan, and it can be regarded as a little famous in Da Zhou, she took Shen Yanshu's token to find the people of the Xiao family, but was kicked out for the first time, saying that the Xiao family has no cousin, don't mess with relatives.

Unable to enter the door of the Xiao family, and unable to meet the people of the Xiao family, Xiyan had to disguise himself as a business talker to go to the Xiao family's silk village to discuss business, and finally met the second son of the Xiao family, Xiao Nansheng.

But Xiao Nansheng only thought she was joking after hearing Xi Yan's words, he said that he only had one aunt, but he died not long after getting married, and he did not leave a son and a half daughter.

Xiyan asked if his aunt's name was Xiao Yinyin, and if she was married to the Shen family in Chang'an?

But Xiao Nansheng didn't know anything about it, because after his aunt died, he was not allowed to mention it in the Xiao family, his aunt was the most favored child of the Xiao family, and when she learned of her death, her grandfather on the hospital bed died soon after because of excessive sadness, and since then, it has become a taboo in the Xiao family.

Xiyan was unwilling, and asked Xiao Nansheng to ask the Xiao family for clarification. Fortunately, Xiao Nan had a good temperament, so he agreed to her request, and asked his father, Xiao Yinyin's brother, Xiao Lu, on the same day.

Only then did the Xiao family know that the child Xiao Yinyin gave birth to that year did not die, and it was still a dragon and phoenix fetus.

Anyway, Xiyan couldn't forget the pitiful scene of the old lady of the Xiao family crying, and then kept holding her hand and asking questions, Xiyan took out Shen Yanshu's letter, saying that her young lady wanted to come to Jiangning to see them, and she was relieved.

But for the matter of concealing the child, the Xiao family decided to go to the Shen family to ask for an explanation.

So Xiao Lu, the big boss of the Xiao family, and Xiao Nansheng, the second son, went to Chang'an with Xiyan.

"Uncle Xiao and Xiao Gongzi will be able to enter the city tonight, and they will come to the Shen family tomorrow, so Miss can justifiably follow the Xiao family to Jiangnan at that time. Xiyan said.

But Shen Yanshu's brows were furrowed, and he said, "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. ”

"Why?"

Shen Yanshu said: "Do you think, why did Shen Kangzhi hide the existence of the two children in the first place? Now that the Xiao family knows about it, will he give in easily? And the Meng family, now that I have planted such a heel, I will definitely take the opportunity to step on it again to feel at ease." ”

Xiyan frowned: "Then what should we do?"

Shen Yanshu said in a deep voice: "The affairs of the Xiao family, wait and see, as for the Meng family's mother and daughter, it will not work if you don't do it." ”

Shen Yanshu couldn't understand Shen Kangzhi, and she didn't understand what he did, but if she couldn't understand it, she would feel a sense of threat in her heart, and she had to make all preparations.
