Chapter 5 is back

This small door is none other than the back door of the Shen Mansion, a door used exclusively for servants to make purchases and enter and exit.

Shen Yanrong had walked past here more than once before, otherwise he would not have recognized it at first sight.

After arriving in Yunshan Village, they did go back to the Shen family, but only during the day.

Those people in the Shen family also want to save face. Even if they hate him so much and wish he would never exist in this world, they cannot do anything to him, the original wife's son, openly.

When they drove their family to the countryside, they also found a plausible excuse to make it public.

But behind the scenes, especially now when it's dark, there's no need to worry too much.

I just don't know whether this was Shen Tao's deliberate revenge or someone else's instruction.

Whatever the reason, it doesn't matter to them now.

He took his wife and children with him, and without any further delay or paying any attention to Shen Tao who was looking down on him, the couple, each holding a child, walked straight towards the small door.

There was someone guarding the small gate. Li Shan had immediately asked someone to open the door. When he saw them coming, the gatekeeper looked at Shen Tao. Although the latter had an ugly expression, he didn't say anything, so he let them in.

Chen Tao looked at their backs and thought badly that he didn't lead the way himself and just watched those country bumpkins go wherever they wanted.

Shen Yanrong has lived in this house for nearly twenty years. Even if he left for a few years, it is impossible for him to forget the memories of so many years so quickly.

He originally thought that those people would probably leave him alone for a while and he would not leave so quickly, so he planned to go back to his side yard with his wife and children, but was stopped by Shen Tao, who said that the master and mistress missed him too much and wanted to see him as soon as possible.

In fact, as soon as their carriage entered the city, someone took a shortcut back to the Shen Mansion to inform them, and the master's intention was also conveyed to Shen Tao immediately.

Lu Yao rolled her eyes. He didn't even lie sincerely. This was obviously nonsense. Anyone who believed it was a fool.

But even though they knew the Shen family had bad intentions, they had no choice but to go.

The two were worried. Years of experience had taught them that they had to treat people who were obviously malicious with the utmost malice, otherwise, they would most likely push themselves into an irretrievable disaster.

The two of them quickly thought of a problem: choosing to go to Yunshan Village in the evening was probably a special arrangement by Long.

If so, what do they want to do?

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. However, there was no effective solution at the moment. Seeing his wife's frown so tight that she could pinch a fly, Shen Yanrong glanced at Shen Tao who was leading the way in front of him and whispered to her, "Don't worry, we'll see what happens when the time comes."

There is no point in thinking too much, he can only take one step at a time, but no matter what, he will not remain silent and accept it like before.

Shen Tao, who was walking in front, saw the pace of the people behind him slow down, and couldn't help but sneer: "Master Yan, although this house is beautiful, it is not the time to admire it now. Don't keep me waiting for too long."

Chen Yanrong didn't even look at him. If it weren't for his mother's dowry, he wouldn't know who would own this house.

Chen Tao was disappointed and felt unhappy, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only quicken his pace and secretly watch the people behind him making fun of him.

Humph, let’s see how long you can be so proud!

The Shen family's house was quite large, and it took about a quarter of an hour to get from the back door to the main courtyard in front. Lu Yao and Shen Yanrong were holding the child, and it was night, so it took even longer.

When they arrived at the main courtyard, the servant who had been waiting at the door for a long time was already very impatient. Seeing the four people behind Chen Tao, he frowned and said that only Young Master Yan would be allowed in.

Of course, Chen Yanrong would not leave his wife and two children here, so the servant had no choice but to go in and report.

The three people who had been waiting in the main courtyard for a long time couldn't help but frown when they heard the servant's report, but they could only nod and let them go together. Things had happened for so many days and they couldn't wait any longer.

The servant moved quickly, and in a moment he came out to inform Shen Tao to take Shen Yanrong and the other three inside. Shen Tao's eyes swept over the four of them one by one, and smiled contemptuously: "Master Yan, let's go inside."

After saying that, he took the lead to enter the yard and went to the study of Shen Shiren, the head of the Shen family.

In the study, besides Shen Shiren, there were also his second wife Wang Yalan and her son Shen Yaoming.

Shen Yaoming is twenty years old this year, four years younger than Shen Yanrong, but he has not yet married.

Logically, he should have married and had children at his age, but because everyone in the Shen family thought their grandson/son was handsome, outstanding and capable, Wang Yalan and Wang Xiuhua, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, had started to openly and secretly look for him several years ago, and finally got engaged to the second daughter of the Minister of Personnel last year. However, the girl was four years younger than Shen Yaoming, and her family felt sorry for the child and wanted to keep him for two more years, so the wedding date was set for the beginning of next spring.

In ancient times, people paid attention to the hierarchy of seniority. If the eldest brother was not married, the younger brothers could not marry or get married before the older brother. This was one of the reasons why Shen Yanrong was able to get married early even though he was not well-received.

He was seventeen years old at that time and married Lu Yao, who was only fifteen years old. Now, one is twenty-four and the other is twenty-two, and they are already the parents of two children.

Seeing them come in, Shen Shiren had a cold face as usual, but Wang Yalan and Shen Yaoming beside him were very enthusiastic.

"Brother, you are finally back."

"Yan Rong, you have worked hard on the journey. I heard that it was very bumpy. Are you tired? Have you had dinner?" Although he said this, he did not move at all. He had no intention of asking the people below to bring over refreshments, and he did not even ask them to sit down.

Shen Yanrong was not happy to play along with them, but he didn't want to offend anyone who smiled at him. He nodded slightly at them as a greeting, then looked at Shen Shiren and said, "Father."

It seems respectful, but in fact there is no emotion or feeling at all.

Lu Yao also shouted, "Eunuch."

Xiao Yunhao's eyes rolled around, and then he gave him a sweet smile: "Grandfather."

Little Xinyue has always been his brother's echoer, so he also followed his brother's example and called out "Grandpa".

The two children have soft voices, sweet smiles, and adorable dimples. They are so adorable that even a heart of stone would soften them.

Unfortunately, the people in front of me are exceptions.

Shen Shiren's expression changed again and again, and he finally swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, "Look at what you are wearing! Let someone make you a decent one tomorrow, so that people who don't know won't say that my Shen family treats the original wife's son harshly."

He felt depressed and irritated whenever he mentioned this. If it weren't for the special circumstances now, he would never want to see this face again in his life.

Wang Yalan and Shen Yaoming's faces turned ugly when they heard the words "original wife's legitimate son", and there was the same jealousy and unwillingness in their eyes. When their eyes fell on Shen Yanrong and others, they saw that they were dressed in rags, had sallow faces, and exuded the smell of poverty. Their mood instantly improved.

Humph, so what if he's the legitimate son of the original wife? He lives worse than the others and is still trapped in the family for the rest of his life!
