Chapter 271 Secretly raising children

But he succeeded in bluffing the shop owner. After all, there are only a few people who are willing to go to the Yamen for such a trivial matter, but what if this old lady is such a trouble-making person.

Mrs. Gu continued: "Let me tell you, the person I know is working in the Yamen now!"

Mrs. Gu didn't blush when she said this, and she didn't feel like she was lying. After all, Li Ya and Xie Xingchuan were also people she knew, and they were indeed handling the transfer of the house in the Yamen.

The shop owner couldn't afford to gamble, and since he was in the wrong, he didn't dare to pester him again when he heard such words.

Mrs. Gu carried the successfully replaced copper basin and left with the three children in an aggressive manner.

Xie Xingchuan's house was almost finished, and the group of people walked back.

After listening to the Shen brothers and sisters scolding profiteers a few times, Mrs. Gu said:

"Next time you get something, you have to look past it on the spot. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain clearly if something goes wrong. When I was young, I saw someone holding a dead baby for the doctor to see. Once the doctor held it, If they have a child, they will use the child to blackmail them for a sum of money.”

When the Shen brothers and sisters heard this, their eyes widened.

Shen Changfeng had experienced hardship, but Shen Ling had grown up in an ivory tower and had never heard of such a thing.

Niuniu nodded vigorously at this time and said: "Dad also said this. He asked me to check the things I received, even my own things. Daddy had a test before, and someone threw a small paper ball into the test basket. If it is not discovered in time, it will be regarded as cheating.”

When the Shen brothers and sisters heard this, they were also frightened.

While they were talking, they had already arrived near Xie Xingchuan's newly bought house.

Shen Ling suddenly stopped.

She saw a young man wearing a black shirt.

The man was tall and straight, with a face like a crown of jade. The setting sun shone on him, as if his whole body was coated with a layer of golden light.

Shen Ling couldn't help but be stunned.

The young master was fine in everything, but he seemed to be a little weak. As he passed by, he suddenly covered his mouth with a handkerchief and let out a few light coughs.

This slightly sickly physique made Shen Ling couldn't help but feel something strange in her heart.

After the person completely disappeared around the corner, Mrs. Gu lowered her voice and muttered to the children: "What a pity."

Niu Niu was puzzled and asked: "What's a pity?"

Mrs. Gu looked back, alluding to the young man who had just left.

"Old lady, when I was young, I heard someone talk about a man like this who coughed twice when he had nothing to do. He..."

Mrs. Gu deliberately betrayed her.

Shen Ling's heart skipped a beat and she asked, "Grandma Gu, what happened to him?"

Mrs. Gu glanced at Shen Ling in surprise.

Shen Ling realized that her concern seemed a bit excessive and immediately lowered her head.

Mrs. Gu continued: "A man who coughs when there is nothing wrong cannot have children!"

"Cough cough cough!" Shen Changfeng suddenly let out an earth-shattering cough when he heard this turn of events.

But the next second, he faced the surprised looks of the people around him, quickly covered his mouth, and explained: "I can give birth! I was coughed by my grandma, and I don't cough often!"

Mrs. Gu did not bully him, but touched Shen Changfeng's little head and said, "Yes, yes, our Changfeng is in good health."

"What is the old lady talking about? Is there anything funny?"

It happened that Li Yaren and Xie Xingchuan were doing something good from the yamen. As soon as they walked to the entrance of the alley, they saw this big family gathered here.

Mrs. Gu said casually: "A young man passed by just now. He looked very respectable. We happened to be talking about him." When Li Yaren heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

After he pulled the others into the house that Xie Xingchuan had just bought, he lowered his voice and said, "Don't look at that young man who looks respectable, but in fact, he keeps an outside house secretly!"

Everyone present widened their eyes.

Mrs. Gu, Niu Niu and Shen Changfeng's eyes were full of excitement.

Even Xie Xingchuan pricked up his ears and leaned forward slightly.

"This man looks well-dressed, I didn't expect him to be this kind of person!" Mrs. Gu said with emotion.

Shen Changfeng tilted his head at this time, and said belatedly: "This person looks familiar, as if he has seen him somewhere."

But when he came back to his senses, he saw everyone, including Niu Niu, staring at him with eyes like light bulbs, and he was suddenly startled.

"What do you think I'm doing?" Shen Changfeng was confused.

Niu Niu said obediently: "Brother Changfeng, we are waiting for you to remember who this person is."

Shen Changfeng:…

A flash of inspiration flashed in Shen Changfeng's mind, but when everyone was so frightened, he immediately waved his hands: "Don't wait, I can't remember."

Everyone suddenly looked disappointed, and turned their heads to look at Li Yaren with curious eyes.

Li Yaren continued: "This young man moved here last month. He bought the house from Cao Yaren. On the day of moving, he saw a young woman with a curtain being helped in, and then she I’ve never seen that woman go out.”

"But the neighbors also said that there was a fire in the house, and servants came out every day to buy expensive food. But when the troublesome neighbors came to inquire, the servants in the house insisted that there was no master living there."

"Usually when people in that house have disputes with their neighbors, they all give in. Such a peaceful style is not like the style of a wealthy family at all."

Occasionally, the Ya people exchange news, and they all know exactly which houses have been sold and which ones have not.

Li Ya, who spends his days running around the streets and alleys, has managed to piece together the story through gossip.

"It is said that the young master's secret wife may be the queen of the guilty minister!"

He lowered his voice and threw a big thunderbolt, shocking everyone.

"After secretly raising a sinner, you can't tell that besides being unable to have children, he is so courageous!" Mrs. Gu couldn't help but sigh.

Most of the female relatives of the criminal family were thrown into the Jiaofang Division. Occasionally, there were a few who escaped. If they were found to have been raised secretly, the person who helped hide them would be charged with harboring fugitives.

"I didn't expect that this young master, who looks like a human being, is actually an outlaw!" Shen Changfeng said softly.

Shen Ling turned to look at his brother.

There was infertility in the past and lawless maniacs in the future. The strangeness that Shen Ling originally felt when he saw the young master finally dissipated completely.

Li Yaren is a cautious person, and he is also afraid of causing trouble, so he added a patch: "These are just speculations. No one can say for sure whether they are harboring fugitives."

Mrs. Gu nodded. She was mature and mature, so she naturally understood Li Yaren's worries and comforted her: "Don't worry, so many of us are tight-lipped. No one will go and complain to the officials."

Li Ya was very determined.

Shen Changfeng suddenly shouted.

"I remembered who he was!"
