Full level Black Heart Lotus, reborn to bully scumbags every day!

Qin Xuerong looked at Old Madam Shen in surprise, and saw the dark warning in her eyes.

Her heart tightened, not knowing what went wrong.

The old lady was clearly speaking for Sister Zhen before, why did she start criticizing her the next moment?

Seeing Qin Xuerong's face turn pale, Shen Shuyi pulled a cold arc at the corner of his lips.

Qin Xuerong and Shen Jingzhen were far away, so naturally they could not smell the thick, damp, moldy smell on the clothes.

But the old lady was close and had been in the backyard for so many years, so how could she not tell the difference?

So when she saw the clothes, she would just think that Qin Xuerong was deliberately trying to make things difficult for her, and that the clothes Shen Jingzhen gave her were just some of the things that were kept at the bottom of the box and were meant to fool people.

Shen Shuyi knew that this was the case with people like the old lady. Having lived a lifetime, they usually would not believe what they heard, but would believe more in what they had speculated.

In addition, she also mentioned that Yunshu Garden had been in disrepair for a long time. The old lady would naturally think that Qin Xuerong could not tolerate her, and therefore secretly neglected and made things difficult for her.

"Mom is right, I was wrong." Qin Xuerong's breathing was unstable and she quickly stood up to admit her mistake.

Shen Shuyi looked at Old Madam Shen at the right time and said in a gentle voice: "Grandma, I think it's better to forget it. Although the courtyard has been in disrepair for a long time, it is only because no one has lived in it for a long time. There are many people in the mansion now, and money is needed everywhere. Mother also has her own difficulties..."

Facing Shen Shuyi's clear eyes, Old Madam Shen's eyes softened and she said in a gentle voice, "Child, just take what's given to you. You're the daughter of a dignified Shangshu Mansion, not only do you dress plainly, but you're also wearing someone else's old clothes. What's wrong with that?"

Shen Jingchuan also said: "Mother is right, Sister Yi, you are now representing the face of the Shangshu Mansion. You can't always be like this when you are out in the world in the future."

This one sentence made Shen Jingzhen and Qin Xuerong's faces turn pale, and Shen Jingzhen clenched her teeth.

This is simply unreasonable!

Clearly, just now her father and the old lady were saying that they were brothers and sisters, praising her for being considerate and sensible, but the moment they stood on Shen Shuyi's side and supported her!

Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "Daddy and grandmother taught me that next time, Shuyi must wear all the jewelry on her body and must show the style of a young lady from our Shangshu Mansion."

A well-behaved joke made both Shen Jingchuan and Old Madam Shen smile.

"Qiulian, go get my set of gold-carved coral and peach-red hairpins and hollow orchid pearl hairpins and give them to Sister Yi."

Hearing this, Shen Jingzhen's face turned even thinner and from blue to green. The handkerchief in her hand was nearly torn to pieces, and she couldn't maintain her smile for a long time.

She had been coveting that set of gold-carved coral peach blossom hairpins for a long time, but the old lady had never given up. She didn't expect that she would give it to Shen Shuyi now!

This bitch!

Not only has she taken the position of the Shangshu Mansion's legitimate daughter, but now that she has just returned, she actually dares to snatch things from her!

"Thank you, grandma. But since you gave me two sets, how about I give one set to my third sister? This way, it can be considered as returning the favor." Shen Shuyi suggested seriously with a smile on his face.

Old Madam Shen nodded in satisfaction: "Your third sister has a lot of good things in her hands, you can keep these two sets of headgear for yourself."

Shen Shuyi hesitated for a moment and looked at Shen Jingchuan beside him.

Shen Jingchuan also nodded: "Your grandmother is right. You have lived in the Buddhist temple for a long time. You don't like disputes, but you have to think about yourself. In addition, your father has a jade pendant with a jasper vine flower, which I will give to you later."

Shen Jingzhen gnashed her teeth and responded with a smile: "Dad and grandma are right. Besides, I misunderstood my second sister before. How can I accept my sister's things again?"

Shen Shuyi did not refuse and said generously: "Thank you, Daddy and Grandma. I really hope that there will be more family dinners like this. In this way, it won't be long before Shuyi's makeup box will be full."

Madam Shen laughed out loud, pointed at Shen Shuyi and said to the people beside her: "Look at this greedy little guy, he's even more excessive than Sister Zhen."

Seeing that Shen Shuyi easily turned the game around, and that Old Madam Shen and Shen Jingchuan both gave her gifts, Qin Xuerong couldn't help but express her gratitude.

Then he smiled and said, "I was worried that Sister Yi would become timid after living in the Buddhist temple for too long and lose the demeanor of our Shangshu Mansion. Now it seems that she is well-mannered and behaves appropriately. She is truly a noble person."

"Mother, you are too kind. Compared with my third sister, Shuyi really has a lot to learn." Shen Shuyi said with a smile. That smile was extremely dazzling to Qin Xuerong.

Qin Xuerong smiled but didn't really smile, and continued, "Mother also has a few sets of precious jewelry in her collection, I'll have someone send them to you later."

Old Madam Shen was satisfied and said in a gentle voice: "Sister Yi, you are still young, you should dress brightly. Girls, don't dress so plainly. Wear more festive colors, so that you look blessed and people will love you."

As soon as the voice fell, the maid outside the door hurried in to report: "Old Madam, Master, Madam, the Second Young Master is back!"

"Hurry, go and welcome them." Old Madam Shen stood up quickly, with undisguised anticipation and joy in her eyes.

Shen Shuyi stopped in front of the door with a group of people. Not long after, he saw a young man in a light green robe with pine and crane brocade patterns walking in with big strides under the moonlight.

The boy had a handsome face, not particularly good-looking, but distinctive nonetheless. The only thing was his eyes, which were rather unpleasant. They were a bit long, with a bit too much white in them, and carried a hint of arrogance and hypocrisy that could not be concealed.

"Ang'er is finally back! Come on, start serving the dishes." Old Madam Shen said with a smile, and immediately took Shen Jing'an into her arms.

It was not until this moment that the smile on Qin Xuerong's face became more genuine.

Shen Shuyi also had a smile on his face, but he felt sad in his heart.

You know, that’s how the old lady and father liked my eldest brother back then.

But one day, something went wrong and his elder brother became a useless person, a disaster that everyone tried to avoid. However, Shen Jing'an rose to the top and transformed himself into a talented and capable young man in the capital.

It would be a lie to say that I am not sad or miserable.

Shen Shuyi felt unfair for his elder brother, but he also knew that human nature was cold and fickle.

Just like the old lady’s love and concern for her were real, but in addition to this love and concern, she was also the mistress of the entire Shen Mansion.

She is Shen Jingchuan's mother and the grandmother of many children. She can't help but love them and will not hesitate to protect the interests of her son and the entire Shen family.

Shen Shuyi knew very well that to the old lady, the only thing she had more than other children was the love and care she had received from her parents during those years of upbringing.

But this affection is actually thinner than paper. Not only will it be diluted over the years, but it will also disappear completely when she threatens others.

Therefore, people can never rely on others.

From the moment she was reborn, Shen Shuyi knew that the only person she could rely on was herself.
