After Shen Yunhui cried loudly, the suppressed emotions in her heart were released, and she was no longer as scared as she was at the beginning.
After Shen Zhonglei left, Ping Niang watched her sleep, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
Although Ping Niang had known for a long time that Shen Yunyao followed Xu's personality, she did not regard Shen Yunhui as her sister at all, but only treated her as a little follower.
But in order to live a better life, she taught her daughter from an early age to obey Shen Yunyao in everything, and to remember that she and she had different identities, and she finally lived peacefully for so many years.
I thought that I would just have to wait a few more years and marry my daughter off in a glamorous manner, and then I would put my worries aside, but I never expected that Shen Yunyao would be so vicious.
In front of Shen Zhonglei, Ping Niang didn't dare to say anything, but her thoughts were flooding in her heart.
Shen Yunhui is already thirteen years old this year, and it will be almost time to discuss marriage in two years.
She was different from Shen Tianshu. Even if Shen Tianshu lost his mother, she was still the eldest daughter of the Shen family. Not only did she have the support of her maternal family, but the old lady of the Shen family took care of her marriage.
Shen Yunhui was just a concubine, neither a direct descendant nor an elder, and the old lady of the Shen family didn't have the time to care.
Her fate is in Xu's hands.
But now, can the Xu family still be reliable?
If she knew that Shen Yunhui had told Shen Zhonglei everything today, how would she deal with her mother and daughter?
Looking at her daughter's brows that were still furrowed in her sleep, Ping Niang's tears fell down her cheeks.
If I had known this, it would have been better for me not to have children in the first place. It would have been better to die alone than to bring a child into this world and suffer.
Just what Shen Yunhui said just now is enough to turn the Shen family upside down.
She couldn't imagine what would happen at home tomorrow.
Early the next morning, as soon as Shen Yunyao got up, a maid came to send a message, saying that Mrs. Xu's condition had worsened and asking her to go to the main room to check on her.
Shen Yunyao anxiously changed her clothes, combed her hair casually, and went straight to the main house.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Shen Zhonglei sitting at the head of the hall.
"Daughter, please pay your respects to your father." Shen Yunyao hurriedly stopped her steps, bowed politely, and then asked anxiously, "How is mother? Isn't it almost fine? Why is it getting worse again?"
"You still have the nerve to ask your mother what's wrong!" Shen Zhonglei glared at her, "It's all because of you, an unfilial daughter!"
Shen Yunyao was startled and kept beating her heart, but she said deliberately: "Dad, it's all my daughter's fault. Something happened yesterday and my parents were worried. I'll go in and see my mother..."
"Did I let you go?" Shen Zhonglei said with a stern face, "Kneel down!"
"Dad..." Shen Yunyao was so flustered that her hands and feet were cold and she couldn't stop trembling, "I, I..."
Shen Zhonglei slapped the table and roared: "Kneel down!"
Shen Yunyao's legs were weak and her feet were soft, and her knees fell to the ground with a plop.
Her knees hit the ground hard, and the pain made her burst into tears.
"Dad, if your daughter does something wrong, just point it out to her..."
Shen Yunyao habitually tried to get through by acting coquettishly.
But today's matter was no longer something she could get away with by acting coquettishly.
"Don't do this to me!" Shen Zhonglei's face was as dark as water, "I have found out everything about what happened yesterday. If you still want to give yourself a chance, you'd better explain the matter clearly now. Otherwise, if I call someone to come over and confront you one by one, things will get really big and it won’t do you any good.”
Shen Yunyao had never heard Shen Zhonglei speak in such a tone. Before she could explain her affairs, she opened her mouth to confess Xu Yihao and said: "Dad, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong, but what happened yesterday? It was really not my idea, it was my cousin who asked me to do this. I, I just believed in my cousin’s words. I really didn’t know that it would turn out like this in the end..."
Shen Yunyao fell to the ground and cried bitterly. She really felt that she was wronged. She clearly said that she was just acting, but in the end, not only was she spat on, she almost died in that broken house.
Shen Zhonglei was furious when he heard this. This matter was indeed related to Xu Yihao, who pretended to be nothing in front of him yesterday.
"Why on earth are you doing this?" This is what Shen Zhonglei doesn't understand the most.
No matter what people do, they should have a motive and a purpose. What are Xu Yihao and Shen Yunyao doing this for?
Shen Yunyao didn't care about the pain in her knees at this time. She took a few steps forward, hugged Shen Zhonglei's legs, and cried: "Dad, I don't know why my cousin is doing it. I just want dad to care more about me. You love me so much. My father is usually so kind to my eldest sister, and I am not as good as her in everything. When I see my father exaggerating and treating my eldest sister so well, I feel unspeakably uncomfortable.
"I just hate that I am incompetent and not as capable as my eldest sister in being able to get into trouble and please my father. But I am also my father's daughter, and I also want my father to love me more and praise me more.
"Later, my cousin came to me and told me that he had a way to deal with the eldest sister, so that dad would be angry with her and love me even more in the future. I, I didn't know why I was obsessed at the time, so I just believed my cousin's words...Dad, I I really know I was wrong. I was almost killed yesterday and I have learned my lesson. Please take care of my youth and ignorance and spare me this time!"
Shen Zhonglei never expected that the motives coming out of Shen Yunyao's mouth would be so absurd and childish.
"You..." Shen Zhonglei was so angry that he kicked Shen Yunyao away, pointed at her and cursed, "Not to mention that you and Shu'er are biological sisters, you actually have such thoughts. Am I not good enough to you? What? Am I lacking your food or clothing? If you want me to praise you more, you have to do something so that I can praise you, right?
"At such a young age, not only do you not know how to love sisters, you are actually jealous of talents. You don't know how to work hard. Your mind is full of such crooked ways. You, what do you want me to say about you?
"Poor Shu'er, she tried every means to lead people to rescue you yesterday. Don't you feel ashamed?"
Shen Zhonglei was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.
When he was young, his qualifications were average and he was not favored by the elders in his family.
But he was studious and motivated, and through his own efforts, he finally stood out from the many children of the Shen family and passed the Jinshi examination.
This is the past event that he is most proud of and talks about most. Every time he drinks some wine during the New Year, he can't help but tell these past events to his children.
"As the daughter of me, Shen Zhonglei, you didn't learn any ambition or character from me. Instead, you learned a lot of intrigues and tricks from the Xu family. You still want me to praise you?
"I'm telling you today, Shu'er is a hundred and a thousand times stronger than you! When your mother recovers from her illness, let her take you and Xu Yihao back to the Xu family!
"My Shen family doesn't have a daughter like you!"
