The daughter of the firstborn is rebellious and is reborn to bury her whole family

Chapter 128 If not calling him “Sir”, what should we call him?

Shen Qiyin adhered to the principle of "taking money from others and helping them get rid of disasters", and did not play dumb with Shen Cang, but said bluntly: "What grandma values ​​most is offspring."

"But look at the state of the eldest and second brothers now. Not to mention bringing honor to the Shen family, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to find a wife to continue the family line."

"If Aunt Wan's pregnancy brought good news at this time, would Grandma just watch her beloved grandson wandering around?"

When Shen Cang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes!" He slapped his thigh excitedly, "Why didn't I think of that?"

Shen Qiyin thought to himself that with a brain as small as a garlic clove, it's normal for you to not be able to think of anything.

Shen Cang thought he had a brilliant plan and was extremely excited. He kept muttering to himself, "Yes, yes, yes, the old lady likes grandchildren. As long as Wan Niang is pregnant, the current dilemma will naturally be solved."

"By then, I'm afraid she will take the initiative to ask for Wan Niang to come in before I say anything."

But as he spoke, the smile on Shen Cang's face gradually froze.

This child is not something you can just get.

Even if they lied to the old lady, the pregnancy came at such a coincidence that the old lady might become suspicious. And if they then asked someone else to take her pulse, wouldn't the truth be revealed?

Tsk, this is difficult.

I wanted to ask Shen Qiyin later, but then I thought that she was my daughter after all, and it might not be appropriate to tell her about this.

But then he thought again, since he had already told her about the plan to bring Wan Niang into the mansion, this one thing wouldn't be a big deal, so he said, "I'm afraid pregnancy is something that cannot be controlled by human power."

"Who said Aunt Wan really has to get pregnant?"

"But if it's fake, then your grandmother would have found someone else to diagnose Wan Niang's pulse, wouldn't that have backfired?"

"Then you won't be able to diagnose him."

"This……"

Shen Cang frowned and held his breath for a long time. Finally, he looked at Shen Qiyin for help: "Yin'er, Daddy is confused and can't figure it out."

"What else can you do?"

"...How, how can you talk to daddy like that!" After all, he needed help from others, so Shen Cang didn't dare to lose his temper easily.

Shen Qiyin counted the silver in his hand and said distractedly, "Why were you arrested and taken to Qiying Pavilion? Have you forgotten?"

When Shen Cang heard the three words "Qiying Pavilion", he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

How could I forget!

Concubine Li in the palace faked pregnancy to win favor, and as the imperial physician who had treated her before, he was naturally suspected and was arrested and taken to Qiying Pavilion for investigation.

"You mean, you want me to use Lady Li's method?"

"Yes." After counting the silver, Shen Qiyin put those little cuties back into the purse one by one: "Even the imperial doctors couldn't diagnose that the pregnancy pulse was fake. The possibility that the doctor my grandmother found could tell is very small."

"This is foolproof, but..." Shen Cang looked embarrassed: "I don't know what method Lady Li used."

If he had known, he would have sought medical treatment at that time.

Moreover, when he was released from Qiying Pavilion, they only said that the case of Concubine Li's fake pregnancy had nothing to do with him, and no one explained to him the whole story.

After hearing this, Shen Qiyin paused as he was packing the silver.

Her eyes moved slightly, and she said to Shen Cang sincerely: "I know what method she used."

"How did you know?"

"Don't ask." Shen Qiyin had an expression that said, "knowing too much is not good for you."

Shen Cang suddenly understood.

It must be Prince Xiao who told her!

Otherwise, how could she know about palace secrets like Concubine Li's fake pregnancy when she didn't even dare to tell the old lady!

In this case, Shen Cang did not dare to ask any further questions and just listened obediently.

Shen Qiyin said: "Lady Li was diagnosed with pregnancy because she took a medicine."

"And this kind of medicine can be prepared by my junior brother."

"Fifty taels of silver each."

Shen Cang thought he had heard wrongly: "How much?! How much did you say?"

"Fifty taels."

"Why so many?"

"If you think it's too expensive, you don't have to buy it."

Shen Cang looked depressed.

The price to bring someone into the mansion is too high.

He asked Shen Qiyin unwillingly, "You two are brothers after all, can't he just tell you the recipe directly? I can make it myself."

"Or at least a little cheaper."

Shen Qiyin pulled the drawstring on his purse and said in a calm tone: "You still want the formula? Why don't you just ask for Guangrentang directly?" He was thinking too much.

Shen Cang did think it was too expensive, but he had no choice but to buy it.

Finally, he gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and decided to spend the fifty taels.

Shen Qiyin asked him to take the silver directly to Guangrentang to buy the medicine from Sanwa, and then send it to Jiang Wan as soon as he got it.

Not long after he left, Mrs. Shen also came to Haitangyuan.

Miss Shen was happily muttering to herself, "There's business again," but her face looked calm and composed.

In comparison, Mrs. Shen was extremely impatient.

"Your father just left the house again. He must have gone to see that little bitch again!"

"It seems that he is determined to take that little vixen into the mansion."

"It's already this late, and you don't even give me any advice!"

But the more anxious she was, the calmer Shen Qiyin became. She said slowly, "Haven't you heard the saying, 'When it rains, my mother will marry', it is beyond human control. Now it's the same for my father to take a concubine."

"Don't say that it's hard to manage a daughter like me. Even if I am a grandmother and can manage her, I still have to be able to do it. Do you think my father listens to her?"

Madam Shen said unwillingly, "So according to you, I can only endure it?"

"That's not true."

"Do you have an idea?!" Mrs. Shen immediately became excited.

"Yes, there is, but why should I tell you?"

"You..." Mrs. Shen stood up in disbelief: "What are you talking about? I'm your mother!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Qiyin raised her hand to signal her not to continue. She said calmly, "I have never denied this. You don't need to emphasize it every time."

"You are my mother, but so what?"

"Have you ever cared for me and loved me, or protected me when my grandmother and father blamed me? None of that, right?"

"In that case, let's just talk about the real thing next time, and stop talking about these nonsense."

"Instead of repeatedly mentioning that you are my mother, it would be more practical for you to just give me some money."

Mrs. Shen was stunned and still couldn't believe that these words came from Shen Qiyin's mouth.

She is her mother!

She is her biological mother!

How could she say something so heartless?

What made Mrs. Shen even more scared was that she didn't think Shen Qiyin was just saying that out of anger. Now she could really do what she said.

As a mother and an elder, she naturally doesn't want to be controlled by her daughter.

But looking at the entire mansion, she didn't know who else she could turn to for help except Shen Qiyin.

After a moment of silence, Mrs. Shen finally asked indignantly: "Okay, from now on, I will just pretend that I have never given birth to a daughter like you."

"Xianglan, go get the silver!"

Shen Qiyin added calmly: "Fifty taels."

"You!" Mrs. Shen was furious, but she could do nothing about it. In the end, she just vented her anger on Xianglan: "Go quickly!"

Xianglan replied bitterly, "Yes," and thought to herself, how could I still fly!

When she came back with the silver, Madam Shen threw it in front of Shen Qiyin and said very firmly, "Can you tell me now?"

Shen Qiyin took the silver with a smile and said, "If you want to deal with Jiang Wan, you have to take her into the mansion first."

Mrs. Shen wanted to snatch the silver back at that time.

"What a stupid idea you came up with!" She didn't think much of it. "I came to you just because I didn't want her to come into the mansion, but you're helping that little bitch!"

"Then let me ask you, what will you gain by stopping her from entering the mansion?"

"Will father change his mind and love you from now on?"

"No, he won't." Shen Qiyin said firmly, "The more you try to stop him, the more he wants to overcome all the obstacles and be with her."

"He might even think that your obstruction caused Jiang Wan to suffer a great injustice, and he would do his best to make it up to her."

"And the means of making up for it include, but are not limited to, spending money on her."

"You see, in the end you have lost both your money and your life."

If Mrs. Shen was still quite energetic at the beginning, she completely wilted after Shen Qiyin said these words.

Indeed, I blocked the loneliness and didn't solve any problems.

but--

"Will these problems disappear if we bring people into the mansion?"

"There are some, but not so many." Shen Qiyin listed them one by one: "First, you brought her into the mansion. She is under your nose, so you can do whatever you want to her, right?"

"Secondly, after she entered this family, my grandmother has seen all the expenses. My father is biased towards her, but can my grandmother be willing to let her squander that money?"

"You and Grandma are in the same boat on this matter."

After a pause, Shen Qiyin looked at Madam Shen meaningfully and said, "Let me remind mother again."

"Father is out of the house all day to look for her, and they have become husband and wife. If she gets pregnant again one day, I'm afraid that grandmother will not agree with you, and you will be in a passive situation then."

"Why not take advantage of this opportunity to bring her in early? This will help alleviate your reputation as a jealous person, and also help you avoid quarreling with your father."

Mrs. Shen nodded secretly.

That's right!

After all, she is the principal wife and the one in charge of the household. It is easy for her to manipulate a concubine like her!

It is not impossible to secretly give her some medicine to prevent her from having children.

Mrs. Shen felt excited just thinking about it.

It’s worth spending fifty taels!

With an idea in mind, Mrs. Shen did not delay and immediately asked someone to prepare the car and went to Guihua Lane again.

Shen Cang thought she was here to cause trouble again.

He even picked up the broom, but was told that she was here to pick up Jiang Wan into the mansion.

This unexpected turn of events caught Shen Cang and Jiang Wan off guard.

His first reaction was: I bought the medicine in vain!

The second reaction was: Fortunately, I haven’t eaten it yet, otherwise I should have returned it?

After all, it was fifty taels of silver, not a small amount. Therefore, on the way back home, Shen Cang actually went to Guangrentang, hoping to rely on Shen Qiyin's face to ask Sanwa to return the medicine.

As a result, Sanwa said: "Once the medicine is sold, it cannot be returned or exchanged."

Shen Cang clearly stated: "I am Shen Qiyin's father..."

"It doesn't matter even if you are my father." Sanwa spoke gently, but his attitude was very tough: "This is medicine. After it passed through your hands, who knows if there will be any problems. I will return it to you and dare not sell it to others. If I do, I will lose a lot!"

"What's the problem? You can check it out."

"Hey!" Sanwa waved his hands: "There are always people out there. What if you are so skilled that I can't find out? I won't do such a reckless thing."

There was no other choice, Shen Cang had to take the useless medicine back to the Shen family.

Mrs. Shen arranged for Jiang Wan to live in the courtyard where Aunt Zhou used to live.

Shen Cang's face immediately looked like he had stepped on shit.

But I just thought that the person had already entered the mansion, and there was no need to argue about such a small matter.

At the end of the incident, everyone seemed satisfied.

Of course, the most satisfied one was Shen Qiyin.

One hundred taels of silver was even enough for her to buy furniture for her new house.

She finally chose a relatively large one from the five houses that Xiao Yan had helped her pick, thinking that if her senior and junior brothers got married in the future, they would have a place to stay.

She has hired a few servants to clean and tidy up the place so that they can move in at any time in the future.

That evening, Shen Qiyin was busy writing down his accounts to see how much money he had left. Rendong lay drowsily on the bed and said in a soft voice, "Sister, have you thought of a name for the shop? It will be open in two days."

"You've been studying for a while, so you can start now."

"Me?!" When she was suddenly asked to check her "homework", Honeysuckle "sat up in shock from her dying illness" and even her sleepiness was scared away.

"Try it."

Under Shen Qiyin's encouraging gaze, Rendong scratched his head and said, "Well, let me think about it..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar "click" sound came from the window, making Honeysuckle feel like he had escaped a disaster.

"Hehe, it must be Lord Xiao who is here. You should go quickly, sister. Let's talk about the name tomorrow." After saying that, she crawled into the bed like a loach, leaving Shen Qiyin with only a round back of her head.

Shen Qiyin shook his head helplessly and laughed, then stood up and walked out.

As soon as the door opened, Xiao Yan walked in without waiting for her to let him in.

Shen Qiyin was stunned by his action, thinking that it was true that the first time is unfamiliar the second time is familiar. This man was quite embarrassed when he first entered her boudoir, but now he was as comfortable as if he was back in his own bedroom.

After closing the door, Shen Qiyin looked at him and asked, "My Lord, why are you here now? Is there something wrong?"

"You..." He seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Ok?"

"You don't have to call me 'sir'."

Shen Qiyin blinked blankly.

If not “Sir”, what should we call him?

She thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "My Lord?"

Xiao Yan lowered his eyes.

Shen Qiyin immediately changed his words: "Obviously not true!"

"Please give me another chance."

Xiao Yan was amused by her eagerness to survive. For a moment, the slight awkwardness in his heart disappeared, and he told her frankly: "...You can just call me by my name."

"How can that be done!"

"Why not?"

"That would be very rude."

"Are we so unfamiliar with each other?" Thinking of something, he suddenly said meaningfully: "Oh, no wonder, after all, Miss Shen and I are not familiar with each other."

“…” She seemed to be “being treated strangely”.

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Qiyin looked at Xiao Yan's expression and called softly, "Xiao, Xiao Hanyu?"

Just one name makes someone blush.

Shen Qiyin originally thought it was nothing, but when she saw his face getting redder and redder, as if she was teasing him, she began to feel a little uncomfortable.

Finally, he could only change the subject and said, "Big...you, you haven't told me what you are here for?"

When talking about business, Xiao Yan suppressed the ripples in his eyes, and instantly regained his serious face, and asked: "Originally, I just came here to give you something, but when I passed by a yard, I heard some movement, and I thought you might be interested."

"Whose yard?"
