So, she fell into a beautiful dream.

A crescent moon hung on the willow treetops, the night breeze was blowing gently, frogs were croaking in the distant pond, and militiamen were standing guard and patrolling in the threshing ground.

In the room of Old Lady Shen in the main house, the half-asleep Old Lady Shen suddenly opened her eyes. She sat up, was dazed for a moment, then got off the kang, took out the key, opened the cabinet, and took out a small box from it.

She opened the box and took out a longevity lock.

She stroked it gently.

There was a flash of nostalgia and a flash of cruelty in his eyes.

She murmured, "My eldest son, I don't know how you are now. Don't blame me, I just want you to live a good life..."

Old Man Shen was actually awakened as well, and he also heard Old Lady Shen's mumbling.

He gritted his teeth and lowered his voice, "You damn old woman, you want to die? If anyone hears us, we're done for. Shut up and put the things back!"

Old Mrs. Shen was also startled.

She put the longevity lock back into the box angrily, but her eyes were moist. In the blink of an eye, more than 40 years have passed, and she didn't know whether she could see her biological son again in her lifetime.

I wanted to go and see it before, but I didn’t have the conditions. Now that I have the conditions, I don’t dare to go. What if it affects my eldest son?

"Old man, that family is so rich, our son will definitely live a good life."

"Do you even need to tell me that?" Old Man Shen's eyes flickered, and he said in a very low voice, "The Shen family in Yuncheng is a big family with hundreds of years of history. It is still the same now. I heard from the eldest brother of the old Su family some time ago that when they deliver goods to the Shen family, the big trucks can drive directly into the Shen family manor. It is said that ginseng and ganoderma lucidum are eaten as vegetables..."

After listening to this, a hint of relief flashed in Old Lady Shen's eyes.

With a smile on her face, she let out a breath, a trace of resentment flashing in her eyes, "That evil creature actually dared to resist and wanted to divide the family. He's dreaming. I'm going to make that whole family work like slaves for us until they die. Humph, so what if she's a lady from a wealthy family? She still has to raise the son of my wet nurse as her own son, while her own son is still at my mercy..."

"Okay, shut up now, and don't go too far next time, or else it will make a big fuss and it will be embarrassing for us, do you hear me?"

Old Man Shen thought about what happened in the evening and scolded sternly.

"Okay, okay, I got it..."

At the same time in Yuncheng.

Although it was late at night, one of the courtyards of the Shen family manor located on the shore of Xianren Lake was brightly lit.

There are carved beams and painted pillars outside, and the decorations inside the house are both ancient and luxurious at the forefront of this era.

The two are perfectly combined together, appearing noble and elegant.

On the sofa, Luo Aofu, the eldest daughter-in-law of Old Master Shen, the head of the Shen family, sat gracefully on a rosewood chair. She was 58 years old this year, but seemed to be in her early 30s. Decades of time had left no trace on her face. She had beautiful eyebrows, phoenix eyes, fair skin, and even spoke in a gentle voice.

"Zhehan, your grandfather is looking for you so late, what's the matter?"

The middle-aged man sitting opposite was called Shen Zhehan. He was of medium height, with fair complexion, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, well-dressed, and his gestures showed that he had received a good upbringing. He whispered, "Mom, Grandfather is looking for me because of my cousin."

Luo Aofu's expression changed slightly, but it was gone in the blink of an eye. "Your grandfather is old and has not been in good health recently. The burden of the head of the family is too heavy. As the eldest son and grandson, you should share the worries of your grandfather."

"Son, I'll remember that." Shen Zhehan quickly agreed, but his brows were slightly frowned. "Mom, what do you think grandfather meant? Why hasn't he handed over the position of head of this family yet?"

"What else could it be? I'm just not satisfied with you." Although Luo Aofu's voice was light, if you listened carefully, there was a hint of gloom in her tone.

She knew that the old man was not only dissatisfied with Zhehan, but also with herself.

"Mom, you said that in recent years, grandpa always likes to discuss things with my cousin, right..."

Then he paused and said, "Go back and discipline your eldest daughter. Someone has already reported her arrogant and domineering behavior to me. If your grandfather finds out, you know the consequences."

"This child has developed a spoiled personality because I spoiled her too much when she was young. I will discipline her when I get back." Although Shen Zhehan said this, his expression showed disapproval.

"Well, go back."

Luo Aofu waved her hand, and an inexplicable gleam flashed in her eyes.

She came to her husband, whispered a few words, and then left.

The bedroom was on the second floor. She went up the stairs and happened to see Shen Zhehan's leaving back.

She clenched her hands, and her usually gentle face became gloomy. As expected, like nature demands excellence, like nature demands excellence. No matter how well this bitch's son is trained, he will always be a useless piece of shit.

But she only has this one son! If the head of the Shen family is taken away by the second uncle's family, their family will definitely be driven out by that cruel man after the old man passes away.

But she couldn't find anyone to discuss it with.

Only she knows this secret.

And that bitch! Back then, if back then...

She gritted her teeth and now had no choice but to help Zhehan get the position of the head of the family, otherwise...

Thinking of the old man's methods, she couldn't help but shudder.

This matter will rot in my stomach forever.

This night seemed as peaceful as any other night, but there seemed to be something different.

Shen Mingxi fell asleep.

The little fish birthmark on her wrist suddenly moved, and then she seemed to look around curiously, and then a trace of her spiritual consciousness fell on Shen Baozhi's room.

The spiritual consciousness moved around the room.

It stopped above Shen Baozhi's head and seemed to be looking at her curiously.

Just when it wanted to get into Shen Baozhi's sea of ​​consciousness to take a look, 009 vigilantly activated the electronic scanner.

I glanced around but didn't find anything unusual.

And that trace of spiritual consciousness had already returned to Shen Mingxi's wrist when 009 scanned it.

009 has entered hibernation mode.

And the little fish also quietly hid in the birthmark...

The next morning.

As the sky was just getting light, Old Mrs. Shen, who was worried about something, came to the door of the woodshed where her eldest son lived with a fire poker in her hand and was furious.

The door was already in tatters, so she kicked it open, then pointed at the room and yelled, "...Chen Li, you lazy mess, it's already so late and you haven't gotten up to cook and feed the pigs yet? Are you waiting for me to serve you? I'm telling you, there's no way, you..."
