Shen Wanli and his wife were both somewhat unable to accept this outcome.
Fortunately, both of them were in good physical condition, and Shen Liuliu was also there.
Tian Guifen neither cried nor made a fuss; she was just silently heartbroken and listless.
Shen Liuliu advised her for a while before whispering, "Mother, please don't reveal anything to Fourth Brother."
"If Fourth Brother is true, he will be sad to know that we doubt him."
"If Fourth Brother is a fake, he would have been prepared knowing we suspected him." (Reading)
In short, we must never show the slightest suspicion in front of Shen Sishi.
With tears in her eyes, Tian Guifen agreed.
She choked back tears and said, "My stone..."
At this moment, Tian Guifen, as a mother, already had some premonitions in her heart.
In other words, when Shen Sishi first returned, Tian Guifen did have some doubts, but her joy overwhelmed her.
At this moment, listening to her daughter Shen Liuliu's analysis, her doubts immediately resurfaced.
Everything has its traces.
"Mom, do you think my third sister-in-law will give birth to a little niece this time?"
Shen Liuliu immediately changed the subject.
If I let Mom keep thinking like this, she probably won't be able to sleep tonight.
Tian Guifen knew her daughter was trying to change the subject, but she went along with it anyway.
"My grandchildren are all well. It's all fate. As long as they are safe and sound, that's all that matters."
She no longer has any expectations for her grandchildren; she just wants them to be safe and sound.
Before that, she would excitedly look forward to having a little granddaughter.
Now, all she hopes for is that her daughter-in-law and grandson are safe and sound.
"It's inconvenient for me as the father-in-law, so please take better care of Fang Hui. That child has no parents, so we should show her more concern during times like this."
Don't worry.
Tian Guifen nodded.
She's so old, can't she even handle this little thing?
Shen Wanli suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked, "By the way, why don't you talk to Fang Hui about letting Dou Dou come and stay with us?"
After all, my daughter-in-law is pregnant now, and DouDou is still young and doesn't understand things. It wouldn't be good if she hurts my daughter-in-law.
Tian Guifen said, "I've spoken to Fang Hui about it, but Fang Hui is worried that Dou Dou will feel that they don't like Dou Dou anymore now that they have a new child. So she doesn't want Dou Dou to move in."
"Of course, the baby in her belly is more important right now."
Shen Wanli disagreed.
DouDou is too young to understand anything, and he doesn't know what it means for his mother to be pregnant.
If you get hurt, you'll regret it later.
"Fang Hui and Da Linzi are both steady people. They've already discussed it and decided that we, as the elders, shouldn't get involved."
Tian Guifen, however, was unwilling to say anything more.
She had already made the possibility clear, but Fang Hui still insisted.
If we're talking about who cares most about DouDou and the child, it's definitely Fang Hui, the mother herself.
Why should she play the villain?
“Dad, Mom is right. My third sister-in-law actually refused, so let’s not worry about it for now. We can bring DouDou over to live with us when she’s more pregnant and can’t move around as much.”
Shen Liuliu also felt that since her third sister-in-law had refused once, if her mother asked her again, her third sister-in-law would agree even if she didn't want to.
What if Third Sister-in-law gets upset about Dou Dou then?
It's not worth the risk.
The same words from Tian Guifen had no effect, and Shen Wanli might even argue back.
But when his daughter spoke, all he could do was nod.
He smiled and praised, "My daughter is right. She's so thoughtful."
Tian Guifen: ...
That's really laughable.
"In short, you don't need to worry about my second, third, and fourth brothers' affairs."
"Okay, okay."
Tian Guifen was tired of her daughter's lectures.
—
As the days passed, Mo Lan'an's letter finally arrived with the autumn winds of September.
Shen Sishi is not the real Shen Sishi; his original name was Sun Lianchao.
They are people secretly trained by certain adults.
Sun Lianchao, however, loathed the life of risking his life and always wanted to retire into seclusion.
Later, he found an opportunity to fake his death and go into seclusion.
He had been using a mask all along, so when he reverted to his original appearance, no one recognized him.
By chance, Sun Lianchao encountered the Shen Baili family, who had been driven away.
Shen Baili could tell at a glance that Sun Lianchao looked almost exactly like the deceased Shen Sishi.
So I made a plan.
"...When Shen Baili heard that you had become successful, he wanted me to impersonate Shen Sishi and steal the winery's recipe for them."
Sun Lianchao gave the instructions casually.
He originally thought that even if he was found later, he would be safe with the Crown Prince's protection.
But no one expected that the Crown Prince cared so much about the Shen family that he actually went to investigate him.
Then he had nothing to deny; it was all for nothing.
It would be better to just explain things clearly.
"Shen Baili? He's actually connected to this? Where is he?"
Shen Wanli stood up in shock.
He never expected that the person who was impersonating the stone was actually arranged by Shen Baili!
What Shen Baili wanted to do was self-evident.
"Oh, he wants..."
"etc."
Shen Wanli suddenly interrupted Sun Lianchao and instructed Shen Sanlin: "Dalinzi, go and call your second uncle, second aunt, and eldest cousin."
Since this concerns Shen Baili, his second brother's family must know.
To avoid trouble, it's best to call someone over so they can listen together.
"good."
Upon hearing this, Sun Lianchao quietly shut his mouth and sat down to wait.
His ears twitched as he carefully observed the Shen family.
It's quite unexpected that His Highness the Crown Prince has assigned so many secret guards to the Shen family.
What secrets does the Shen family hold that make the current crown prince so concerned?
Just as Sun Lianchao was racking his brains trying to figure it out, Shen Qianli and his wife, along with Shen Songshan, rushed over.
Upon entering, Shen Qianli angrily asked, "Shen Baili is still alive?"
Clearly, Shen Sanlin had already told Shen Qianli and his wife about what had happened here on the way here.
After Shen Qianli and the other two sat down, Shen Wanli nodded sadly, then said to Sun Lianchao:
"You can continue now."
Sun Lianchao: "We made a deal. He won't expose me, and I'll help him achieve his goal."
What does he want you to do?
Shen Wanli felt a vague unease in his heart.
Sun Lianchao has been here for several months now. If he wanted to harm his family, he probably would have done it already.
But their whole family is still fine. Could it be that Shen Baili didn't do anything to them?
impossible.
Given Shen Baili's character, there is absolutely no way he would let them go.
"Shen Baili must have asked you to poison us, but you didn't do it, did you?"
Shen Liuliu suddenly spoke up and asked.
This is the most likely possibility.
Sun Lianchao glanced at his younger sister in surprise.
That's really clever.
Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince has taken a liking to this young girl?
That's impossible.
