509: The Threat from the Niu Family

Shen Ziju's face looked very ugly. In addition to being anxious and angry because of the news he had heard about Niu Xianhua before, he was also angry about what Shen Youfu said. He thought that his father really dared to say anything.

Shen Ziju was a man who looked elegant on the outside, but he was actually a little arrogant in his heart. He was born in the countryside and attached great importance to his reputation, so even if he met a beggar, he would act very friendly. In fact, he wanted to stay away from them in his heart. As for those who were in high status and could benefit his future, even if he appeared to be neither humble nor arrogant on the surface, he was actually very close to them in private, and he could make the other party feel good about him.

Of course, even if the status of the people is not too high but they are as talented as him, Shen Ziju is willing to get close to them, for example, Shen Zian and Su Zhi, these two are people he wants to get close to from the bottom of his heart.

Shen Ziju absolutely despised people like Niu Xianhua. Not to mention marrying her, he was unwilling to make her a concubine. Moreover, Niu Xianhua had plotted against him, and now she came to him with a child just when he was about to get married. She was so sinister that he wished he could strangle such a woman to death.

Now Shen Youfu actually let Niu Xianhua be his concubine, and even said that there was nothing wrong with the child being his, and that it was nothing for an official to have a concubine. Shen Ziju felt as if there was a breath stuck in his throat, and his face turned green.

"Brother! What's wrong with you? Don't be angry. If you don't want that Niu Xianhua, just get rid of her! Isn't she just a woman? Isn't it easy to get rid of her? Don't get yourself upset!"

When Shen Zhu saw Shen Ziju's expression, she hurriedly comforted him. She was still counting on her younger brother in the future. When she married into the Wang family, the only one she could really rely on was her younger brother. As for her fourth brother and his wife, she thought about what happened before, and after she got angry, she felt that she really couldn't count on them.

Shen Youfu and Shen Zhang also hurried to comfort their son.

Shen Zhang said: "Zi Ju, you have to hold back your anger now. Who asked that bitch to come to your house with the child? You are about to get married, you can't let anyone expose this before then, otherwise the marriage will be ruined..."

Shen Ziju was naturally aware that if Niu Xianhua's affairs became known to everyone, as long as the marriage had not taken place yet, the Shangshu Mansion would most likely cancel the marriage. He would then become the biggest laughing stock in the capital, and it would have an impact on his future. Therefore, he had to stabilize the Niu family and not let this matter become known.

But if he didn't let anyone know, would he have to accept this woman whom he hated from the bottom of his heart? And then she would use this method to control him for the rest of his life? Shen Ziju got a headache just thinking about it, and his smart mind began to wonder what to do, and his brows were tightly wrinkled.

Shen Youfu said, "Let's do a blood test to identify them. If they are really our Shen family's children, we'll find a place to settle them down and feed them well. At least let you get married first."

"It's really annoying. If I had known this would happen, I would have been more ruthless and gotten rid of her!"

Shen Zhu said bitterly. She disliked Niu Xianhua very much. She had opposed her in the matter of Lady Yu, and now she was targeting her younger brother. If something happened to her younger brother, she, as his younger sister, would also be affected. This was against her. She wanted to kill him.

Shen Ziju's heart was also moved. Although he was good at calculating and sometimes used some insidious means, he had never killed anyone. But now Niu Xianhua forced him to do so. He thought that if the child was his, he could keep it. As for Niu Xianhua, such a dirty and shameless woman. It was a filthy place for her to live in this world!

"How can you say such nonsense?!" Shen Youfu glared at Shen Zhu and said, "Don't talk nonsense about killing people. Don't do it! You will feel uncomfortable when the time comes. And you see that Liu Yimiao and her gang in the Marquis' Mansion arranged it so carefully. After several years, Zi'an's wife has even lost her memory. Didn't they get what they deserve? No matter how glorious they were before, they wanted to kill people!"

Shen Zhang's face changed, thinking of what happened in the past. Those people who knew her back then are now in the capital. Now that she has changed like this, she wonders if she will reveal her true colors in the future. She became anxious again.

Shen Ziju's ruthless intention was extinguished by Shen Youfu's words, but he was still unwilling to give in. He thought, is he going to let the Niu family control him like this?

Shen Youfu took another puff of his cigarette and said, "Zi Ju, you must not act rashly on this matter. The Niu family said that they dared to come this time because they were fully prepared. If there is any mistake, they will sue you. So you can only accept them for now."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ziju's brows furrowed even more. He thought that the Niu family was smart. They actually threatened him and even had a backup plan. He felt that this family was cunning, which made his murderous intent, which had just subsided, rise again. He thought that since Niu Xianhua was so deliberate in plotting against him, how could he be content to be a mistress?

However, it was impossible for Shen Ziju to give up his current marriage and marry her, and he would not allow his future to be controlled by this woman.

Shen Zhang had calmed down by then. She looked up and saw her son frowning. She thought to herself that her son was just like her. He would have to worry about someone destroying his good life at any time. She thought that she couldn't let her son suffer. Only when her son had a promising future could her status be guaranteed.

"Son, don't worry. We have to take it one step at a time. No matter how cunning the Niu family are, they are just a few country folk without a big foundation. First, stabilize them. Then, find a way to kill them and force them to reveal their back-up plan. Are you afraid that you won't be able to deal with them? By then, let alone one child, even if there are ten, they won't be able to do anything to you."

Shen Zhang patted Shen Ziju's hand and said softly.

After hearing this, Shen Ziju's brows relaxed a little, as this coincided with what he had just thought of. However, he was still very impatient because he had to deal with Niu Xianhua.

Shen Zhu said, "Looks like we can only let Niu Xianhua's family get away with it for now. Let them enjoy themselves for a while, and then we'll make them vomit it all out! Brother, you'll have to be willing to give up the child when the time comes. He's a troublemaker."

"What nonsense are you talking about, you damn girl!"

Shen Youfu cursed Shen Zhu again. He hated Niu Xianhua, but he still cared about the child. After all, he was Shen Ziju's first son, and he really looked like Shen Ziju when he was a child. He thought that if he could stay, he might become another Shen Ziju and bring more glory to their Shen family. As for the child's mother, whoever she was could be the mother!

After hearing what Shen Youfu said, Shen Zhu pouted and said, "Dad, there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. Do you think the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion can tolerate her husband having a son who is not born from her belly? If you don't want to cause trouble in your family, just stay."

Shen Zhang said: "Zhu'er is right, old man, Ziju can have more children in the future, this is nothing. That child has the blood of the Niu family, so there is no guarantee that he will have a wolfish temperament."

When Shen Youfu heard this, he stopped talking.

Shen Ziju hated Niu Xianhua, but he had mixed feelings about the child he had never met. Niu Xianhua plotted against him, and he wanted to kill her, but the little kid knew nothing. Thinking of his own future, Shen Ziju decided to stay away from the kid in the future, as he was afraid that he would not be able to be cruel enough.

The family has decided how to treat the Niu family, and then Shen Ziju will meet the Niu family.

After the Niu family arrived, they rented a small courtyard, which was quite remote. However, the quietness made Shen Ziju feel more at ease. He didn't really want people to see him coming here. Moreover, the carriage he took this time was just an ordinary carriage. From the outside, you couldn't tell that the person sitting inside was a prominent figure in the capital.

Shen Youfu, Shen Zhang, Shen Ziju and Shen Zhu all came. After all, this matter was of great importance, and it would be more appropriate for the whole family to come.

There were quite a few people from the Niu family who came this time, including Niu Xianhua's parents, second brother and second sister-in-law. The one who opened the door was the second brother Niu Er. When he saw that it was the Shen family, he quickly let them in. Then he quickly closed the door.

"Oh! It's Master Hanlin who's here. Come in and sit down. Our flowers have been waiting for you for so long that their eyes have grown big. And my little nephew is always crying for his daddy!"

When Niu Er's wife Wang saw the family coming in, she said happily that she was very happy. She thought that all the sufferings over the past year were not in vain, as she had raised her sister-in-law and her son. Now the hardship has finally paid off. The Shen family is now on the rise, and their lives will be much better if they get involved!

Shen Ziju pursed his lips and clenched his hands into fists inside his sleeves, but there was no expression on his face, neither happy nor sad.

Shen Zhu glanced at Niu Wang and said, "Sister-in-law Niu, please keep your voice down. Are you afraid that others won't hear you? If others hear you, you won't get any benefit from it!"

Niu Wang's smile froze, thinking that her family was relying on this matter to threaten the Shen family. If this secret was really known by others, the Shen family might really fight to the death and ignore them.

"Sister Zhu'er said, keep your voice down, keep your voice down."

Niu Wang lowered her voice quickly and spoke to Shen Zhu in a flattering tone. She knew everything about the Shen family these days without even asking. Shen Zhu was going to marry the brother of the imperial concubine, and her status would be so high that she couldn't even see him. As long as she raised her hand, the benefits of her family would be great, so she couldn't offend them.
