Chapter 108 I have always been fair

At the end of the year, the Zhen family was summoned to Beijing.

Wang Xifeng knew that Shen Ajiao loved to watch the excitement, so as soon as the Zhen family arrived in Beijing, she sent a message to Shen Ajiao, inviting her to eat melon seeds.

Shen Ajiao refused because Zhen Baoyu did not go.

Wang Xifeng was very surprised to hear that Shen Ajiao rejected her. After asking around, she found out that the people who came to the Zhen family were just a few old women, and none of them were decent women. This melon was not tasty at all.

Mrs. Lin was indeed the most well-informed, and she felt inferior to her.

But she still has a piece of gossip about Shen A-Jiao herself. Wow, she really needs to investigate something.

Mrs. Lin is not the biological daughter of the current Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen!

No wonder family affection is weak.

She had thought that Mrs. Lin, a wealthy family, had little regard for family affection, but it turned out that it really was not.

When Shen A-jiao heard that it was about her, she harnessed her carriage and went to look for Wang Xifeng that day.

"What are you looking for?"

Wang Xifeng crossed her arms and kept the question a secret. "What are you investigating? What did Mrs. Lin say?"

[They say you are heartless and ungrateful, that you don’t know what’s good for you, that you are self-deprecating, that you don’t know how to show respect, that you are beautiful and charming, that you are cruel and ruthless…]

"Please be gracious, Grandma."

Wang Xifeng: Stop, isn’t that enough for me to say?

"I just heard it, I just heard it!"

Shen Ajiao nodded, [hearing that is equivalent to believing the river]

Wang Xifeng: Do you want to listen to it? Or should I tell you the legend?

"I trust you, grandma!" Shen A-Jiao patted her chest and promised to verify it after listening to it, but Wang Xifeng dared to say it, so of course she had investigated it 100%.

"I discovered this by accident. This story started ten years ago."

[I am such a boaster. I can't even describe what happened ten years ago so clearly. ]

Wang Xifeng...

"The old uncle has two sons, one legitimate and one illegitimate. The current uncle is the illegitimate son."

[I knew it. Looking at him, he is stingy, mean-spirited, and narrow-minded...]

"The eldest son of the old uncle was named Shen Huaiyuan. He was not only handsome, but also very knowledgeable. I heard that he was a candidate to enter the top three."

[You know Xiu 꺳, right? He is a potential prime minister. ]

Wang Xifeng: That’s a good point, but why does it sound a bit sour?

"The family chose a marriage for him, the eldest daughter of the Zhang family, but unfortunately, the eldest son ran away before the marriage. In order to save face for both families, the two families asked the illegitimate son to marry the eldest daughter of the Zhang family instead of the eldest son."

"I didn't expect that half a year later, the legitimate son actually came back with a pregnant woman." Having said this, Wang Xifeng glanced at Mrs. Lin who was still eating melons, touched his nose, and continued, "Coincidentally, the woman is the concubine sister raised by the Zhang family in the countryside!"

"Now that the legitimate son has returned, the position of the eldest son in the Earl's Mansion, which was originally set in stone, will naturally belong to the legitimate son. What's even more coincidental is..."

Shen Ajiao took over the conversation and said, "What's even more coincidental is that the eldest son fell ill not long after!"

Wang Xifeng wanted to applaud, but just as she raised her hand, she stopped, as if it was not the right time to applaud. "Mrs. Lin is right."

"And then? What about the woman Shen Huaiyuan brought back? Did she die in childbirth?"

Wang Xifeng nodded. That was true. She had been asking around for a long time. No, no, she had come across it unintentionally. Really, hehe...

As expected, Shen A-jiao guessed it right. It turned out to be true. No wonder Shen A-jiao was raised by her grandmother since she was a child. Unfortunately, her grandmother died of illness when she was in her teens, leaving the whole family to bully her.

But this family is too vicious, and their eating habits are even more ugly.

What does it matter? She won't.

Because she can kick!

"Keep this to yourself and don't tell anyone!"

Wang Xifeng was anxious, "What kind of person am I? Mrs. Lin doesn't know?"

[It's too clear, cruel and ruthless, not soft at all. ]

Wang Xifeng? ??? If you have the guts, say it out loud.

[That was in the past. Now she is gentle and considerate, kind and generous, and has a beautiful heart.]

Wang Xifeng felt better after hearing this. "I got some tea recently. I'll take it back for Sister Lin to eat."

[You don't have any reason to call her, right? ]

Wang Xifeng...doesn't want to talk.

"Lend me some money."

"I don't have any money, but I have a life."

"I'm leaving. There's chicken stewing on the pot at home. I'm leaving first." After saying this, Xiao Xiao slapped her hands and left without taking a single cloud of color with her.

Wang Xifeng: What about the lifelong friendship we promised each other?

Shen A-Jiao: I didn’t say anything. I don’t admit it. I didn’t…

When Shen Ajiao returned to the Lin family, Lin Ruhai and Lin Daiyu were sitting together waiting for her, but the atmosphere was very depressing.

"What's wrong? Is it a big deal?"

[No way, I just went out and my house was robbed? ]

[Should I take the money I saved with me? ]

Lin Ruhai...

"Ma'am, look at this."

Shen Ajiao took the envelope handed to her by Lin Ruhai. It was an opened envelope. She opened it and read ten lines at a glance.

[I am one step ahead of others in getting news. 】

Lin Ruhai: Wang Xifeng? She’s faster than him?

(Wang Xifeng: I said I just happened to meet Uncle Lin)

Lin Daiyu: Madam, do you already know?

Her expression seemed normal, but she must be sad inside, her eyes were red, "Madam, if you are sad, you can cry." She was holding it in her heart and it hurt.

Shen A-Jiao? Crying? Why is she crying? Shen A-Jiao has already cried.

"Madam, what do you want? What do you want to eat? Just tell me and I'll get it for you."

[Deal with those two bastards from the Shen family for me! ]

Lin Ruhai: It must be done!

"I want to eat duck tongue with soy sauce, boneless chicken, chicken soup with chicken belly, stir-fried chicken offal... fried chicken with bamboo shoots, and it would be perfect with a bottle of fruit wine."

Lin Ruhai: "I'll arrange it."

Then he turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare.

Lin Daiyu was full of doubts. Madam, are you craving something delicious? She doesn't look overly sad.

Seeing Lin Ruhai's hurriedly leaving and his wife already preparing to swallow a bottle of water, she decided to keep quiet. After all, her father's meal was indeed delicious and she wanted to eat it too.

But she didn't think that Madam Shen's life was so difficult. No wonder Madam Shen looked so hateful and hypocritical. She didn't like her at first sight.

Fortunately, she was so arrogant and domineering when I first met her, otherwise I would be so angry with her when we meet next time, huh.

She had already screened the person who was sent to the Madam last time. Not only did she want to monitor the Madam, she even wanted to bully her, confuse her father, and cause unrest in her own home. She is truly a bad person.

"Ma'am, what do you want to do?"

Shen Ajiao was fair in her dealings. Last time Shen Qin'er sent someone to her husband, she probably thought it wasn't a good idea. This time, she wouldn't send someone to her husband, fearing it would be unfair. She would send some people to Uncle Shen and his son's room.

We have neither money nor people, we just lack a place to watch the fun and enjoy the show.

Well, now there are more members of the Shen family, and the New Year is lively.

Shen A-Jiao just likes to be lively, so she is trying her best to help them.
