"Believe it!" Xia Tian replied seriously.
Shen Nian looked into her eyes and carefully recounted his origins and experiences in a calm tone.
It turned out that Chen Nian lived in the capital and was the eldest son of the Wu'an Marquis's mansion. His biological mother died of illness when he was two years old, and his father, Wu'an Marquis, married a new wife when he was three years old.
The stepmother later gave birth to two sons and a daughter, the eldest son being only four years younger than Shen Nian.
After his stepmother came into the family, she was always very nice to him and was always concerned about him. He didn't expect that all her concern was fake and was just to make him let down his guard.
It was not until he was seventeen years old and had the poison take effect that he found out that his stepmother had been plotting to take his position as the crown prince. She had been secretly poisoning his food since she married him and gave birth to their first child.
By the time he woke up from the poison, it was already too late to cure him.
In order to detoxify, he tried many methods and never stopped searching. The last time, he was on his way to find Doctor Xue, who had the ability to "bring the dead back to life", when he was attacked and most of his guards were killed.
In order to divert the pursuers, Mu Feng took a small number of guards and went their separate ways. Mu Yang brought people to protect him as they continued to move forward. As a result, they were chased again. All the guards were sacrificed, and Mu Yang was also seriously injured for him. Finally, the two of them ended up in Liujia Village.
When Mu Yang knew that he didn't have much time left, he married her so that he would have someone to take care of him in the future and to keep his identity a secret.
After Shen Nian finished speaking, Xia Tian was stunned.
This kid’s life story is so tragic!
"You have such a vicious stepmother. What about your father? He just doesn't care?" Xia Tian asked indignantly, clenching his fists.
“Who cares? They just beat and killed a few insignificant servants.” Shen Nian snorted sarcastically.
"That's it? Where's your stepmother?"
"She knelt in the ancestral hall for two days, and after coming out, she continued to be the glorious wife of the marquis."
His stepmother, Liu, was the second daughter of the Lingxiu Marquis's family, whose influence in the capital should not be underestimated.
"What did your grandmother say? Not to seek justice for you?"
Shen Nian also has a grandmother who has always loved him.
"She said family disgrace should not be made public."
Even the eldest grandson, whom he loved the most, could still be sacrificed for the reputation of the marquis's mansion.
"What kind of people are these? My son and grandson have been harmed like this, and they still want to keep the family shame private. I'm so angry."
Xia Tianqi slapped the table, and with a "crash", the table collapsed and the teapot shattered onto the floor.
She was startled, "This..."
What's going on? When did she become so powerful?
Shen Nian was stunned. This girl, this strength...
I really didn’t expect it!
Mu Feng just happened to come back with water.
Seeing the collapsed table and the broken pieces of teapot on the ground, he was also stunned, "What happened?" Is the master angry with his sister-in-law?
Xia Tian bared his teeth in embarrassment, "Sorry, I didn't control the strength well."
"Sister-in-law, you did it?" Mu Feng was extremely surprised. "Do you know martial arts?"
"No, no, I'm just stronger." She waved her hands quickly.
Mu Feng gave a thumbs up in admiration, "Sister-in-law is amazing!"
Xiatian smiled embarrassedly and quickly took the broom to sweep away the debris.
He swiftly moved a table from under the shed.
There are several tables like this, all woven by Chen Nian out of bamboo.
I just need to buy a new set of teapots.
Let’s get back to the topic!
Xia Tian sat back down and asked Shen Nian, “Brother Shen, don’t you want revenge?”
Shen Nian was silent. Of course he wanted revenge, but he had thought he was going to die soon, so he was disheartened and lived a dejected life.
"Revenge is never that easy."
"You want revenge! I'll help you!"
Mu Feng was curious, "How can I help?"
"Do you know what the best way to take revenge is?" Xia Tian smiled proudly.
"What?" they asked in unison.
"That means Big Brother Shen, take good care of your health and live a glorious life." Xia Tian smiled mysteriously, "When you are fully recovered, you can go home in a grand manner. Let your stepmother see you so full of life. She will definitely be furious."
The two looked at each other!
That’s it?
Xia Tian found it funny when he thought of how Chen Nian's stepmother jumped in anger after seeing that Chen Nian was safe and sound.
"Has Brother Shen ever heard a saying?"
"What?"
"I just like the way you can't stand me but can't get rid of me!"
This was a phrase she often used to tease people in her original world.
She felt that it was very appropriate to describe Shen Nian and his stepmother!
"I just like the way you can't stand me but can't get rid of me!" Shen Nian repeated in a low voice, chewing it carefully, it really makes sense.
Suddenly, he understood and bowed solemnly to Xia Tian, "Thank you!"
"Brother Shen, you're too polite!" Xia Tian laughed.
Seeing the gloomy aura on Shen Nian disappear, she knew that he was alive again.
Mu Feng listened and saw the light in his master's eyes, as if he had returned to the way he was before the poison took effect. He was secretly happy. He admired Xia Tian even more, "Sister-in-law is really smart."
"Sister-in-law, if you need anything in the future, just send me there. Mu Feng will definitely be there for you."
"That's too much. What can happen to me?"
"Then I'll go fetch some water." Mu Feng said as he went out carrying the bucket.
"Brother Shen, what are your plans for the future?" Xia Tian asked.
"First, take care of your health."
"That's right, that's how it should be. Don't think about anything else first. Just take care of your body and everything will be fine."
“Yeah.” Shen Nian nodded.
Xia Tian was relieved to hear that Shen Nian would not return to the capital for the time being. She had not saved enough money yet and could not make other plans.
It seems that she needs to make more money. If Shen Nian leaves at that time, she still needs to live a good life.
