Chapter 14 Threaten the second roommate
Mrs. Pei didn't want to talk anymore. It was easy to ask for help but difficult to send him away. No matter how much she hated her second wife, she couldn't drive them away right now.

Whenever the second wife and her family walk out of the Hou Mansion today and turn around, the news that Mrs. Pei is narrow-minded and cannot tolerate her uncle's family will spread throughout the entire aristocratic family.

From now on, anyone can orchestrate her behind her back.

And now she doesn't even have her only son, and she doesn't even have anyone who can support her and make decisions for her in the future.

"But it's up to my father-in-law to make the decision."

Pei said these words sadly and pulled Shen Tinglan away.

Shen Fengnian watched them go away with complicated eyes.

"My second aunt made rash accusations, my second uncle made furious accusations, and my grandfather upheld justice regardless of the reason. Didn't anyone ask my mother why she told my second uncle's family to get out?"

Shen Yu'an stood behind the crowd, with an indifferent expression and a light tone.

Everyone immediately looked at her.

Shen Yu'an looked at Shen Fengnian with calm eyes, "My daughter didn't say anything because she believed that her father could handle the matter. But what the daughter saw was that her sister's eyes were red from crying, and her mother was so aggrieved that she didn't even want to explain."

"For the Shenhou Mansion, if the Crown Prince loses, there will be another Crown Prince to take over, and the Shen family will still be glorious."

"But for my mother, losing her only son is equivalent to losing everything."

"When my third brother was alive, my second uncle's family came to the Hou Mansion and they were very polite to my mother. What they saw in their eyes was not only their sister-in-law, but also the noble Mrs. Hou."

"Now what? What about Mrs. Hou? She is just a woman who has lost her son and has no one to rely on."

"The wealth and glory of the Marquis Mansion has become something that the second wife can covet."

"Once my third brother cannot be resurrected, in the eyes of the second house, they are the masters of the palace, so they don't even bother to take my mother seriously."

"After all, my father and mother still have to rely on their son to provide for them until they die. Our family has given away their wealth, and we have to be grateful to them."

Her brother died, and the Hou Mansion needed to pass on the inheritance, so all hopes fell on the second wife.

So her father didn't ask anything, so her grandfather said lightly that the family should be harmonious.

The merits are no longer important, but a second wife who can contribute to his son is more important.

Shen Yuan's face was full of sarcasm.

"Second uncle and his family want to leave at any time. If you step out of Pingxihou Mansion, I will have people spread the news that it was I, Shen Yu'an, who drove you out of the house."

"It's the second young lady of the Shen family who can't tolerate you. No one can even think of throwing dirty water on my mother."

Shen Yu'an looked at Li with cold eyes.

"Second Aunt, my mother has always had a good temper. You can make her angry, which shows how many unpleasant things you have said."

"My mother is kind and doesn't care about you, but I am different."

"I especially remember when I was a child, I was cleaning the battlefield with my father. I picked up a human head, played with it for half a month, and then threw it away when it got bad."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Shen Fengnian and Old General Shen became very subtle.

Shen Yu'an raised her lips, looked at Li with cold eyes, and said in a cold tone, "Second aunt, do you want to taste the pain of losing a child?"

Li was frightened by the coldness in Shen Yu'an's eyes and felt frightened. She subconsciously pulled Shen Yanqing to protect her behind her, "Don't scare me!"

"Try it if you don't believe me!" Shen Yu'an hummed and left with a puff of sleeves.

"Don't provoke her!" Old General Shen looked at Li with stern eyes, "When that girl was five or six years old, she not only picked up human heads and hugged her to sleep, but also took off the flesh bit by bit and washed the heads clean. , carved into the skull.”

Until he was nine years old, he suddenly stopped playing with human heads, so much so that he almost forgot that she was extremely perverted when she was a child.

Except for General Shen and Shen Fengnian, everyone present looked shocked.

"Grandpa, are you kidding me?" Shen Zhirong's expression was hard to explain.

Old General Shen sighed and told Mrs. Li, "Keep an eye on Yan Qing and don't let him hang around in front of Miss An."

Li's face turned pale immediately. Is this true?

Shen Yuan originally wanted to go find Pei and Shen Tinglan, but thought about it and decided not to go.Mothers and sisters always have to learn to be strong.

She returned to Lanyue Pavilion and had four skulls picked up from the mass graves. They were wrapped in white silk and hung on the beams outside the guest room where the second bedroom and her family lived.

She kindly placed a white candle on the skull, and then had all the lanterns removed from the eaves.

That night, Shen Qinian dragged his family and made a fuss about leaving.

Old General Shen was concerned about the face of the Shen family and worried about outsiders gossiping, so he refused to allow them to leave and had the skull removed.

In the middle of the night, the skull was hung up again.

Early the next morning, Shen Yuan appeared in front of Li with a smile on her face.

"Second aunt, morning!"

Li's face was pale and she obviously hadn't had a good rest. She looked at Shen Yu'an with alert eyes, "What do you want to do?"

"I didn't want to do anything. I just felt that my second aunt should apologize to my mother."

"What should I do to apologize to your mother?"

"I don't know what the second aunt did. I just think you should apologize to my mother."

Shen Yuan smiled, turned around and left without bothering her too much.

She went to the guest room where Shen Yanqing lived. Without saying a word, she pulled Shen Yanqing away and said, "Second sister will take you to see the world."

Shen Yanqing tried to struggle, but found that Shen Yu'an was extremely strong, and he couldn't break free at all, and his face turned pale.

At this moment, he completely believed his grandfather's words and was full of fear and guard against Shen Yu'an, "Where is the second sister taking me?"

"Go to the front yard. Today, the eminent monks from the Huguo Temple will come to set up a spiritual summoning array. They need your help."

"When is it coming? What do I need to do?"

"Come here at noon. What you need to do now is go to the lotus pond to cleanse your body and wash away the filth."

Shen Yanqing's face turned red immediately, "I'll go by myself, I don't need my second sister to accompany me."

"Don't be nervous. It's different from taking a bath. You only need to pour the pure water from the lotus pond over your whole body, then sit in the lotus pond and soak for two hours."

"Need to undress?"

"unnecessary."

"Oh, that's fine."

The lotus pond of Shen Mansion is located in the west courtyard. To get from the front yard, you need to pass through the atrium garden.

To go from the inner courtyard, it is relatively far, and you have to pass through two corridors, three arches, and bypass the pear garden.

The Shen family is a large family, and their mansion has five courtyards. Each independent courtyard is very large.

"Do you like it here?" Shen Yu'an suddenly asked.

Shen Yanqing was stunned for a moment and answered truthfully, "I like it."

“Want to live here forever?”

Shen Yanqing was suddenly nervous and a little embarrassed, not knowing how to answer.

When he came, his parents told him that his third brother had died and he would become the heir to the Pingxi Hou Mansion.

Pingxihou's mansion is several times bigger than his family. As long as he becomes the heir apparent, he can have wealth and glory without any effort.

Of course he wants to be the owner here and live here forever.

But now...
