Chapter 101 Good News
After coming out of Qixiayuan.
Shen Zhiyan asked Qiao Lianyu to go back first, and he went to Shen Jingshu's Yunhuayuan.
"Why are you here at this time, second brother?" The maid was applying medicine on Shen Jingshu's face. The imperial physician had already examined her face and knew that as long as she took the medicine on time, there would be no scars on her face.
She glanced at Shen Zhiyan lightly.
"Starting tomorrow, I want you to pay your respects to mother on time. From now on, you must respect mother and never make her angry again." Shen Zhiyan looked unquestionable.
Shen Jingshu was dissatisfied. "Why should I listen to you? You have seen everything my mother has done to me these days. Let me ask you, what is it about her that deserves my respect?"
"Because I am the eldest brother now, you must listen to me."
Shen Jingshu was not stupid at all. "If you want to please your mother, that's your business. What does it have to do with me? If you want me to respect my mother, that's fine, unless she bows her head and admits her mistake to me first."
Hearing her words, Shen Zhiyan suddenly laughed, "Fifth sister, I thought you had already understood your current situation. Don't forget that you should discuss marriage next year. Now that grandmother is busy with her own affairs, it's up to mother to decide what kind of person you want to marry and what kind of person you can marry."
"I don't think you would want to marry just any random guy."
Shen Jingshu pursed her lips tightly.
Chen Zhiyan continued, "After you get married, won't you need your family's support? You have no choice but to listen to me. Big brother is completely useless. Now I am the eldest son of the Marquisate. Sooner or later, the Marquisate will be handed over to me. I advise Fifth Sister to think carefully about this."
After saying this, he turned and left.
He had to let his mother know that only he could shoulder the burden of the Marquis's Mansion.
My third brother is just an uneducated waste, what can I use to compete with him?
Over there, on the way back.
Wu's face was filled with worry. "Master, Zhixu is very ambitious now! I'm afraid he won't listen to us anymore. In my opinion, we must quickly recognize Zhiyan and Zhizhou."
Qin Kaiji nodded, a murderous look flashing in his eyes. "Indeed, we must quickly recognize them, but the most urgent task is to get rid of that bitch Xie Changning. As long as she dies, the title of marquis will naturally fall to Zhiyan. The matter between mother and Jingyun can no longer be delayed."
He already had an idea in mind.
Early the next morning.
Shen Zhiyan brought Shen Jingshu to pay his respects to Xie Changning.
When she came in, Shen Jingshu was still a little reluctant.
Shen Zhiyan glanced at her, and Shen Jingshu immediately changed her expression, "Mother, it's all my fault these days. I made you sad. My second brother has already taught me a lesson, and I promise I won't do it again."
Shen Zhizhou was one step behind the two of them.
Seeing him come in, Xie Changning gave Shen Zhiyan an appreciative look, "Not bad, you are now acting like a brother, that's very good!"
Shen Zhiyan received the praise and smiled contentedly, "Please rest assured, mother. I will definitely discipline my third brother and fifth sister well in the future."
Shen Zhizhou was unhappy. "Second brother, just take care of your wife and children. My fifth sister and I have our mother to teach us."
The two people looked at each other.
Shen Zhiyan curled his lips and smiled, "The eldest brother is like a father. Now I should restrain my third brother and fifth sister more."
What a great elder brother who is like a father...
Shen Zhizhou glared at him angrily.
Xie Changning watched the brothers' confrontation with all their might. A triumphant smile flashed across her eyes. "So many things have happened in the mansion one after another. I plan to take you to Tianning Temple to pray for blessings tomorrow. You should prepare today, and we will set off early tomorrow morning."
She paused and looked at Shen Zhizhou with a smile, "Zhizhou, please stay and have breakfast with your mother."
Shen Zhizhou happily agreed.
Shen Zhiyan's eyes darkened.
What my mother did was too obvious...
"Madam, you are so happy! Just now, good news came from the border, and now it has spread throughout the capital. The Duke is on his way back to the capital." Without waiting for Shen Zhiyan and Shen Jingshu to leave, Butler Zhao rushed over like a gust of wind.
Xie Changning's eyes were filled with tears, "Okay, okay..."
at the same time.
Shen Zhixu also received the news.
He looked shocked and murmured, "How could this happen?"
Clearly, in the previous life, the news that came back was that the Duke of Zhenguo died on the battlefield!!!
Who will tell him why things turned out like this?
Because his injury had not healed yet, he did not go to the Imperial Stables today.
He also had no plans to go to places like Yumakang again.
He is the future Prime Minister of the Cabinet, how could he go to that kind of place!
"Husband, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that something was wrong with him, Bai Xizhi asked cautiously.
"Hurry up and change my clothes, I want to go out!" Shen Zhixu said as he was about to get up.
Bai Xizhi hesitated, "But my husband, your injury hasn't healed yet..."
Before she could finish her words, Shen Zhixu glanced at her. Bai Xizhi couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart, and could only quickly change his clothes.
"Daddy, are you going out? Qian'er wants to eat the osmanthus cake from Yunfangzhai. Can you buy Qian'er a box?" At this moment, Qian'er suddenly ran in with a smile and reached out to hug him.
Almost subconsciously, Shen Zhixu pushed away the child who rushed towards him.
Qian'er fell to the ground and burst into tears.
"Qian'er, let me see if you are hurt anywhere?" Bai Xizhi was stunned for a moment, then she picked up the child on the ground.
Qian'er cried and threw himself into her arms, "Mom, Qian'er's butt hurts..."
"Husband?" Bai Xizhi looked at Shen Zhixu with red eyes, "You have always loved Qian'er the most. Why do you treat him like this? If you have any dissatisfaction with us mother and son, you can speak out!"
After saying this, she picked up the child and left.
She could sense that Shen Zhixu had changed since returning yesterday...
Shen Zhixu, “…”
Looking at the backs of the mother and son, his eyes grew colder and colder.
In the past, Qian'er was naturally his most beloved child.
But today is different from the past.
Who can be kind to the murderer who killed him in the previous life?
Not to mention love!
Absolutely not.
Xie Changning only kept Shen Zhizhou for a while, and that was enough. She was going to go back to the Duke's Mansion.
The carriage is ready.
She was just about to get on the carriage when Xie Nan suddenly strode forward and said in a low voice, "Madam, I received news that Shen Zhixu suddenly went to the Fourth Prince's Mansion just now."
