The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Shi An's seemingly casual words deeply touched Mrs. Shi's heart.

She is the stepmother of the Hou family. She has only one son, Chengxuan, and two other daughters.

In addition, the old Marquis has four sons. The eldest son Shi Chengyi was born to the late wife, and the second son was Shi Chengxuan. The third son and the fourth son were all born to concubines.

In the early years, the old marquis wanted to appoint the crown prince for his eldest son, so that he could inherit the title naturally. Unexpectedly, he fell ill before he could enter the palace to ask for a seal, and he stayed in bed for more than half a year.

For more than half a year, Mrs. Shi stayed by the bedside in undressed clothes, and Shi Chengxuan also behaved actively.

But the eldest son, Shi Chengyi, drank and ate meat outside every day, never came home and cared nothing about his life or death.

After the old Marquis recovered from his illness, he became disheartened and stopped mentioning the matter of inviting the crown prince.

Madam Shi had been planning for more than twenty years, wasn't it just to make Shi Chengxuan the heir apparent to inherit the Hou Mansion?

Now I see Mr. Hou, who is old and decrepit, lingering on his bed, feeling groggy and ignoring worldly affairs for seven or eight days out of ten.

When I heard that my grandson was dead a few days ago, I immediately rolled my eyes and fainted. Even now I am still awake and confused, and I don’t know if I will see Yama one day with just one kick of my legs.

She must ensure that her son Shi Chengxuan secures his position as the heir apparent while the Marquis is alive.

However, the reality is just as Shi Anxia said, Shi Chengxuan is simply unable to support the wall, and he only misses the things in the back house all day long. There are seven or eight concubines in the same room, and sometimes they have to wander around several courtyards in one night.

But didn't Mr. Yang Xuan say yesterday that her son's career would be smooth and he would soar to the sky and become a very powerful minister. Then she thought about it, could it be that the private incense altar had really ruined her son's career, leaving no trace of good luck behind?

At the same time, I felt happy and sad, and felt terrified inside. I thought I would definitely ask Mr. Yang Xuan to resolve the issue, no matter how much money I spent.

Mrs. Shi put down the tea cup, picked up Shi Anxia's hand and caressed it carefully, "Sister Xia, it's hard for you to worry about family affairs at a young age. Grandma knows that you are a good child and will definitely choose a good job for you in the future. Family marriage. Having said that, although the position of Crown Prince is just a virtual one, it will definitely be helpful to your future marriage. Grandma is getting old, and her biggest wish is just to wish you well. "

"Grandma, what do you mean, we have to fight for our father?" Shi Anxia opened her innocent and bright eyes, soft and caring.

Mrs. Shi nodded, "Grandma has already made up her mind. When your brother gets older, she will directly... But God's plan is not as good as God's, so he left like this." As she spoke, tears instantly filled her eyes. , flowing down the cheeks.

This was true, after all, Shi Yunxing had a sweet mouth and always made her happy.

That guy was used to being two-faced and was shameless when he was outside. When he returned home, he looked full of knowledge and ambition. Not only did he deceive Mrs. Tang, but also Mrs. Shi was also kept in the dark.

Shi Anxia wanted to tear off this fig leaf, "My mother doted on my brother too much. The servants she chose for him were all evil-minded and led him to do his job. My granddaughter has checked and found that my brother has long been raped by various people. He was expelled from the Grand Academy and no gentleman was willing to teach him."

"What?" Mrs. Shi couldn't accept it for a moment.

Although her grandson is gone, in her heart, she is still a talented young man full of knowledge, and she even placed the important responsibility of prospering the prince's family on this grandson.

Now tell her that this is an ignorant idiot who doesn't do his job properly?

Shi Anxia sighed deeply, lowering his eyebrows and lowering his eyes, "Not only that, last year my brother also got into a life lawsuit, and it took eight hundred taels to settle it."

Mrs. Shi's heart skipped a beat, "Eight hundred taels?"

Aunt Wen's expression suddenly changed as she stood aside.

Shi Anxia pretended not to see it and continued to talk to himself, "Well, my brother fell in love with a newly married bride. The bride was loyal and would not obey her until death. As a result, my brother teamed up with a bunch of gangsters and soiled the bride's innocence. The bride was so ashamed and angry that she threw herself into a well the next day. The bride's husband took the jade pendant left behind by his brother and went to the government office to sue his brother. Finally, the brother settled the matter with eight hundred taels of silver."

In the last life, the bride's husband knew that the powerful were protecting each other and could not avenge his wife, so he took the eight hundred taels of silver and quickly left the capital, and finally worked hard to become an imperial merchant.

Eight years later, when Shi Anxia was walking on thin ice in the palace, he was framed by this man and his concubine, and he almost died in the cold palace.

I also heard that every one of the gangsters who had insulted the bride with Shi Yunxing died miserably.

In this life, she was too late to save the poor bride, but she did not want to become a mortal enemy of this powerful future imperial merchant.

Injustice has its owner, debt has its owner, and whoever commits the sin will bear it.

Shi Anxia asked sincerely, "Grandma, did you pay for this money? My mother said that she never gave me this money."

Mrs. Shi had a toothache when she mentioned eight hundred taels of silver, which was only half of her private treasury.

Didn’t you say that you should worship the great Confucian as your teacher? Why is the lawsuit settled?

Last year, when Aunt Wen asked Mrs. Shi for money, she said that Brother Xing wanted to become a disciple of a great Confucian, and she needed to buy a famous painting as a gift from him.

The great scholar was Fang Yuchu, who was once the emperor's enlightenment teacher. Later, due to old age and lack of energy, he resigned and stayed at home to entertain his children and grandchildren and take care of himself.

Mrs. Shi was elated by the name "Fang Yuchu", thinking that if her grandson could worship the great scholar as his teacher, it would be much easier to ask him to be crowned prince in the future.

Originally, she planned to let Tang Group pay for it. But Aunt Wen said that the Tang family could not be allowed to know about this because Fang Yuchu had a personal grudge with the Protectorate. It took a lot of favors from her to get the scholar to soften his tone.

Mrs. Shi believed it somehow, and reluctantly took out her private money to subsidize her grandson.

At that time, her good grandson promised that he would work hard, succeed in the future, and honor his grandmother.

But I never expected that the truth would be so unbearable.

Mrs. Shi was so angry that she wanted to smash Aunt Wen's head with a tea cup. She looked at the tea in the cup, and forced herself to hold back. She only asked in a deep voice, "Say! Did the eight hundred taels of silver go to settle the lawsuit?"

Aunt Wen was so frightened that her legs went weak. She knelt down in front of Mrs. Shi and cried, "Auntie, Brother Xing made a mistake. He didn't dare to find his mother. He found his niece and his son. How could I not save him? My niece is afraid of scaring your old man, so I made up these words to coax you."

Shi Anxia glanced at Aunt Wen, with no wavering in her eyes, and stood up to leave, "Grandma, please talk to Aunt Wen. Your granddaughter has to go see her mother's body, so don't be sad." After saying this, I was blessed. Ready to leave.

Walking to the curtain, she suddenly seemed to remember something and turned around again, "By the way, my grandson has called all the brothers in the family to Haitang Courtyard. She wants them to spend more time with her mother, and then we can meet again." Choose a suitable one from among them and raise him in his mother's name to fulfill his filial piety. We, the second wife of the Marquis Mansion, can't afford not to have a legitimate son, don't you think so?"
