Chapter 300 Nuobao wakes up from a dream
Three days later, the black-armored army rode fast all the way back to the capital with the imperial edict.
The Shen family heard the news in advance and knew that a disaster was coming.
Mr. Shen immediately wet his pants, his eyes were straight with fear, and he fell off the bed just as he was about to get up.
Mrs. Shen's face was ashen. She
couldn't stop trembling.
After finally taking a breath, she still had a glimmer of delusion, thinking that she could escape in advance.
So she didn't even take care of washing up. With her hair disheveled and her face dirty, she rummaged through the boxes like crazy.
After finding some jewelry and soft things, as well as the pavement deed, she stuffed them into her skirt.
Shen Yue'er didn't know what happened, and ran to be hugged, crying, "Grandma, Yue'er is scared, why don't the maids listen to me, what are they shouting?"
Madam Shen Er pulled her away, "You little girl, go away, whoever can escape now is the best, I can't take care of you, blame you for being useless."
Pushing the little burden down, Madam Shen Er ran and stumbled, and climbed out of the house through the dog hole on the wall.
She hugged the jewelry in her arms tightly, panting and muttering, "No, I am a noble lady, I can't be a government slave or a prostitute, and no one can harm me!"
"I have jewelry awarded by the national teacher, all from the palace, I can definitely escape if I sell it, or I can escape to a foreign country if it doesn't work!" Madam Shen Er's lips trembled.
However, as soon as she went to the pawnshop, the woman was thrown out along with her jewelry!
"You have a copper hairpin and you dare to sell it as gold. I think you are asking for a beating!" The pawnshop clerk scolded angrily.
Madam Shen's face turned pale. Only then did she know that most of the gifts given to the Shen family by the imperial master were fakes!
In fact, Mu Yihan had long been suspicious of the Shen family, but he couldn't make a fuss.
Therefore, the rewards he gave out were all copper objects pretending to be gold objects, and colored glaze objects replaced crystal jade objects.
Unfortunately, the Shen family was shallow in knowledge, especially Madam Shen, who was a dancer. She only thought that it was a gift from the imperial master and didn't suspect it was fake.
"How could it not be gold jewelry? No wonder... when he first gifted it, he also repeatedly warned that no private sales were allowed in the mansion!" Second Madam Shen's eyes widened, she was so devastated that she had to continue running around in the street.
Turning around the alley, she found another shop of the Shen family. After falling in, she wanted to take the money on the account to use for arbitrating.
But she never expected that the title deed of the shop was not real, and all the people working inside were Mu Yihan's people.
When the shopkeeper saw that it was Second Madam Shen who wanted to run away, he snorted and laughed, then arrested her and sent her to the Black Armored Army.
The Shen family was finally complete.
The whole family knelt in the yard, half dead, crying and making a fuss.
Madam Shen was still unwilling to give up. After crying for a while, she quickly grabbed Shen Yue'er and said, "You, you can't treat us like this. My Yue'er has called the Imperial Master daddy for so long! Even if he hates us, he can't let Yue'er suffer as a slave. Is he still a human being?"
Shen Yue'er cried loudly with her burned cheeks, "Daddy, Yue'er wants daddy. Yue'er is daddy's daughter and can't live without daddy!"
The two black-armored soldiers looked at each other, unable to bear the disgust in their hearts, and directly found a rag to cover the mouths of Madam Shen and Shen Yue'er.
"A cuckoo in the nest is worthy of calling the Imperial Master daddy?" The leader of the black-armored army pointed at Shen Yue'er with a dark face and said, "Throw this girl to the laundry department and let her wash clothes to atone for her sins. She is only allowed to rest for two hours a day, so that she can understand what it feels like for those servants who have been humiliated by her."
"As for the old man and the mistress of the Shen family, throw them into the water dungeon and be tortured until they tell the whereabouts of the real little princess."
"The rest of the people who should be sent to the execution ground will be executed at noon today!" The Shen family
was wiped out in an instant, which was a devastating disaster that shocked the entire capital.
Even the Xiao family, who had just returned to Beijing, heard about it.
Xiao Lanyi has always been a gossip-loving person. After going out to inquire around, she was extremely surprised.
"So, the concubine that the Imperial Master had been looking for so hard turned out to be a fake? He is such a fool." After returning home, Xiao Lanyi pouted at her grandmother.
Old Madam Xiao sat on the couch, sorting out a box of perfumed ointments, powders, velvet flowers, flower drum toys, etc. prepared for Xiao Nuobao.
She snorted, "This man is naturally foolish, otherwise, he would not have been separated from his wife and daughter in the first place."
"It seems that no matter how strong people are in this world, they will always have some flaws. For example, this Imperial Master, I think he is quite stupid. No one is perfect!" Old Madam Xiao disliked Mu Yihan very much. Madam Xiao
covered her mouth and smiled, and brought a box of precious mulberry silk thread and a bag of golden needles, wanting to put them in the box together.
"Mother, I thought that although Nuobao is not yet three years old, she will be five years old after the New Year, and it is time for her to learn some needlework. So I prepared these for her and asked Lanyi to take them back with her." Mrs. Xiao said gently.
Old lady Xiao glanced at her and immediately denied it!
"Who said that girls must learn needlework? Pedantic! I am most annoyed by these needlework things. Women should be the same as men. If they want to learn, they should learn to read and shoot!"
"Xiao bastard, go to the Han Mansion. I heard that they have invited Master Qingshan to teach for Xiao Yi. Go and ask for a set of children's copybooks and some enlightenment books. This is what girls should learn!" Old lady Xiao said with a serious face.
Xiao Lanyi imagined Xiao Nuobao's reaction and immediately stood up with laughter, "I know, grandma. I'll go now and will definitely ask for more!"
It was late at night in Daliu Village.
In the west room of the main house, a series of snoring sounds were softly echoing.
Xiao Nuobao was lying on her back with her arms and legs spread out. In her dream, she vaguely saw boxes of books being carried into the yard...
and her brothers on the side were grinning, enjoying the misfortune of others.
They were all discussing which book would be best for their sister to learn first!
"Ah, no!" Xiao Nuobao was immediately frightened awake in the quilt.
She broke out in a sweat, and burrowed into Feng's arms, rolling around sobbingly.
"Woo woo mother, Nuobao had a nightmare! What a terrible dream!"
