After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother
Chapter 289: The Argumentative Son is Hard to Serve
His elder brother was also listening attentively to the noise, and was almost hit by his younger brother's elbow.
Fortunately, he was well-trained and stretched out his big hand to firmly grasp the handle of the carriage. After stabilizing his body, he turned around, gave him a cold look and scolded him in a low voice.
"Just drive your car, why are you in so much trouble?!"
Seeing that he almost got into trouble, the guilty Jiang Dahei didn't dare to get angry even when Jiang Dabai rolled his eyes and scolded him. He could only mutter softly.
"Humph, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Why are you so angry?"
"Shut up!"
"Humph!"
This was the last stubbornness of the chosen coachman. After a firm snort, he raised the whip and whipped it in vain, and the horse then paddled more diligently.
Although the house where Chu Chi and the others were currently living was quite large, strictly speaking, the location was not very good. It was not that it was not prosperous, but it was located at the extreme edge of the southeast of the inner city.
The entire capital city is divided into inside and outside, and into east, west, south and north.
The most central place is naturally the imperial palace.
The inner city was built around the palace, where the civil and military officials lived. The outer city was generally inhabited by minor officials, common people, or merchants. Further out were the rural farms and the fields and farms of the aristocratic families.
There are many people living in the capital city. If we break it down, there are probably different rules: the east is rich, the west is noble, the south is humble, and the north is poor.
The reason why Dongcheng is rich is that many granaries and silver shops have been built here, and the Ministry of Revenue, which is in charge of the entire Da Qi's purse, is located here. It would be unreasonable for it not to be rich.
The reason why West City is so expensive is that many of the mansions of the rich and powerful families are gathered there, such as the Chu family. But fortunately, their general's mansion is also in the southeast, not too far from here.
Don't ask why Shen Mufeng, as a first-rank general, didn't join in the fun with other dignitaries? The reason is that he is a vain person. At the beginning, he was young and wanted to establish his own family, and he was too lazy to stand on the same Tongfei Avenue with the Zhennan Marquis Mansion.
So from West City to East City, the Jiang brothers drove their carriage for quite a distance before they were able to send their future mistress back home.
Shen Mufeng and his servants lingered in the house for a few more cups of tea, enthusiastically chatting with the Lin family. Finally, when Chu Daidai pointed at the setting sun and told them very bluntly that he would never let them stay for dinner, they stood up with heavy steps and left.
His master was so obviously dejected that he drove the carriage back to the general's mansion. Jiang Dahei felt a little sorry for him.
However, with the warning look from his eldest brother, he didn't dare to say anything nonsense.
He followed his elder brother's example and kept silent, handing the carriage to the servant in the mansion. As soon as he stepped into the front hall, he felt a bad atmosphere.
He slowed down his pace and approached the door, then timidly stuck his head inside to look.
Oh my god, why is the master’s father here?
What's going on?
Before he could finish his complaints, Jiang Dabai, who had retreated respectfully, passed by and grabbed him by the collar and dragged him into the yard.
After waving their hands to dismiss all the guards and servants in the yard, the two brothers stood upright in the corridor and waited for orders.
This distance is just right, ensuring that I can't hear the masters' conversation, while ensuring that I can respond immediately when the master calls.
The sky had not yet darkened, and the afterglow of the spring sun was still quite warm. It shone faintly into the house through the window, adding a little brightness to the rather dark and rigid general's residence.
Shen Mufeng held the teacup and sipped it slowly.
Every time he raised his hand and pecked her, he was graceful and pleasing to the eye. If you didn't look at the cold edge in his eyes, it would be hard to imagine that he was a brave warrior who had fought in the battlefield. He was really a handsome man with an extraordinary appearance.
Even the Marquis of Zhennan, who didn't like his vindictive nature, had to admit that his son was indeed very outstanding. But he was too outstanding, which made his father look mediocre and incompetent like a common person. He smiled bitterly in his heart and turned his mind to admonish himself.
Fortunately, the Shen family has this son, otherwise, how would he have the face to face his ancestors a hundred years later?
Shen Yunchuan glanced at his second son without any expression on his face, then silently lowered his eyes.
The father and son continued to sit opposite each other and drink tea quietly.
It was not until a bird resting on a branch outside the window became too lazy to watch this boring scene anymore, chirped crisply, spread its wings and flew away, that a low voice was heard in the room.
"Your mother's birthday will be coming up in a while. When do you plan to go back to see her? Your mother misses you very much."
"Ah."
Shen Mufeng responded indifferently.
"It doesn't matter whether I go back or not. My mother will come to see me if she misses me. There is no need for you to worry about it."
"I am your father!"
"Well, my mother didn't seem to say otherwise."
"……you,"
This is why Shen Yunchuan was too lazy to argue with his son. He had never won once! He had been defeated over and over again. How could he still have the perseverance to keep fighting?
He closed his eyes and sighed tiredly, then put the teacup in his hand back on the table. He began to try to reason with his son, who had been a sharp-tongued person since he was a child.
"Mu Feng, Dad knows that you are mad at your eldest brother for the stupid things he did.
But you have beaten him and retaliated, and the position of the crown prince is already in your hands as you wished, so why do you still want to hold on to him? After all, you are brothers and sisters, why do you have to be like this?"
"Have you asked Shen Congfeng this question?"
Shen Mufeng raised his eyelids and looked at his biological father, his eyes were still so calm and even a little cold.
"I actually don't understand it either. Although he and I didn't have a close relationship since we were kids, at least we never had any major conflicts.
Why would you really want to kill me, your own brother, just because of a woman I don't even know who she is and a bunch of nonsense she said? "
The teacup fell onto the table with a bang, and the splashing tea appeared slightly turbid in the afterglow.
Shen Mufeng's eyes, which were full of affection even when looking at a dog, suddenly turned cold, and inexplicably carried a murderous aura, which made Shen Yunchuan, his father, couldn't help but feel a jump in his heart.
"My dear father, have you sought justice for me, who was implicated and nearly killed?"
Shen Yunchuan couldn't help but feel bitter in his mouth.
His two legitimate sons had become enemies and were even ready to fight to the death because of such an unfaithful woman!
How could this not make him, as a father, feel heartbroken?
