Chapter 351 1 In the blink of an eye, you have grown up
A warm feeling suddenly surged in Shi Yao's heart.
This was the first time that the old Duke called Ji Yun his mother.
In just a moment, she woke up.
A Niang is her mother, what is there to be moved about?
I've been oppressed for so long that I'm blindly moved by the slightest benefit given by others.
"Okay, thank you grandpa and grandma for thinking of me and my mother. Grandpa, I have something to tell you."
The old Duke understood, dismissed his attendants, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Shi Yao took a step forward and said solemnly in a low voice: "Grandfather, today we met the elder sister. The elder sister dreamed of her second life! It was the life that Brother Fan remembered."
The old Duke's heart tightened, his face was solemn, and he asked in a deep voice: "What did she say?"
Shi Yao said: "It's nothing, she should know the truth about Sixth Brother's infertility and suspect Sixth Sister-in-law deliberately harmed Sixth Brother.
In addition, it is said that the seventh brother married a concubine in his first life, and in his second life, she disliked the girl from the Xie family for being unvirtuous. Before the seventh brother got married, she ruined the girl's reputation, demoted her to a concubine, and forced the seventh brother to marry another original wife.
The 'new seventh sister-in-law' gave birth to three sons. When my wife heard about it, she was overjoyed and wanted to take the eldest sister back to her parents' home to find out who the daughter was from. "
Shi Yao only heard a few words from the conversation between Shen and Rong, and she knew that Shi Mingzhu had revealed the existence of Du Jinhui, and in order to control Rong, she deliberately did not mention Du Jinhui's name.
Even Shen and Rong were not sure whether the "Seventh Grandma" of the second life was the "Little Seventh Grandma" of the first life.
The old Duke's face was as gloomy as water.
He didn't care who Shi Mingchen married in his first and second lives, or who was wronged by him.
What he was concerned about was the fact that Shi Mingzhu remembered her second life.
This girl had already been causing a lot of trouble, and now she remembered that in her second life, she had successfully ascended the throne of Queen and had enjoyed a lifetime of glory and honor. She didn't know what she was going to do to make such a fuss.
"I see. Go and keep your grandmother company."
Shi Yao hurriedly asked, "Grandfather, where are you going?"
The old Duke walked out of Ganlu Hall without looking back, waved his hand and said, "Go to the study."
His chest began to ache again, and he thought silently, is it really God's will to destroy my Shi family?
How long will the demons and monsters in this mansion continue to run rampant?
There is actually a situation where one can remember two lives!
When you suppress one problem, another one pops up; there is no moment of peace.
He couldn't even imagine how chaotic the Shi family could be.
When Shi Yao saw that he was walking hurriedly but with heavy steps, she knew that the old man was frightened and angry.
Let her worry about it, she can't play the survival game alone.
She shook her head and planned to sleep a little longer, but it happened that the Duke of Zhenguo and his companions came back from the Dragon Boat Banquet.
Hearing that the lady was still asleep, he quietly left.
The Duke of Zhenguo, his second wife Shen, and his third wife Rong went to Hanxu Hall to see the old Duke, probably to report to him the news of Shi Mingzhu's second rebirth.
The third master Shi Jian'an was left alone. When the Duke of Zhenguo heard that there were guests at home, he ordered him to accompany them.
It just so happened that Shi Yao was going back to accompany her mother.
The father and daughter have been on the same journey for a while.
Shi Yao’s expressionless face: Bad luck!
Shi Jian'an had three sons, two of whom were abandoned. After a day of listening to open and hidden sarcasm, he was filled with resentment. When he saw Shi Yao, he couldn't help but think of the Xie family.
When he thought about entertaining the Xie family, the long-lost fatherly love and guilt came over him.
"Yaoyao——"
When she heard him speak and met his eyes, Shi Yao shuddered: "Third Master, please speak as soon as possible if you have anything to say."
Don't say anything that is unpleasant to hear.
Also, don't look at her with such loving yet guilty eyes.
It gave her goosebumps.
Shi Ji'an slowed down his pace and found that Shi Yao didn't care about his speed at all, so he hurriedly walked a few steps to catch up, and said with emotion: "In the blink of an eye, you have grown up and will be married next month."
Every time he saw Shi Yao, he always had a verbal battle to start, but thinking that he would hardly see her in the future and his daughter would go to someone else's home, Shi Jian'an felt reluctant to let her go.
I would rather quarrel and argue with her every day.
Besides, the family she was going to marry were merchants, and she didn't know how much grievance she would have to endure.
The day before yesterday, he overheard his eldest son talking to his wife, saying that his eldest brother might punish Shi Yao after she got married.
Shi Jianan was so anxious that he was running around in circles, but there was nothing he could do. He could not stop his elder brother from doing anything.
Therefore, when he saw Shi Yao at this moment, he felt even more guilty.
Shi Yao rubbed her arms and smiled: "Yes, the Third Master never raised me for a day. He left me in Jinling for more than ten years, as if I could grow up in the blink of an eye."
Shi Jian'an felt a tightness in his chest and his face turned slightly stiff. Eh, what was he expecting? When had this girl ever given him a good look?
"I am your father after all, and I hope for the best for you. It is not my wish to marry you off to a merchant family. I heard that you and Xie Jibai are getting along well?"
Shi Yao's face turned cold and she sneered, "What does it have to do with you? I get along well with him, so can you hide your incompetence?
The three obediences for women are to obey their father, husband and son. The one they obey is a supporter. Do you think that slaves should obey their masters and are born to work hard and be at your mercy?
A father is kind and his son is filial. If the father is not kind, then don’t expect the children to be filial. Since you didn’t raise me before, when you see me in the future, just pretend you don’t know me, just like the past ten years.”
If it were in the past, Shi Jianan would have been furious and had a good quarrel with her.
But when he thought that Shi Yao was about to get married, Shi Jian'an felt no anger but only sadness after hearing these heart-wrenching words.
"Ayao, don't say that. When I sent you away, I always thought about you. After all, the Duke's Mansion has only given birth to boys for eight generations, no girls. Before you, there was only one girl, your elder sister.
When you were born, I was also surprised. But things were complicated back then, and your aunt had an awkward position in the mansion, so sending her to Jinling would make her live more freely.
Jinling is the ancestral home of the Shi family, where all the clansmen live together. With the relationship with the Duke's Mansion, and you being the daughter of the Duke's Mansion, no one dares to bully you and your daughter.
I have thought about all of this. After you left Beijing, I have had many dreams about you, about you learning to speak, about you learning to walk, about you calling me daddy.
Shi Yao sneered and listened patiently.
Shi Jianan was embarrassed, as if afraid that Shi Yao would interrupt him, and he hurriedly poured out his true feelings: "I have never said these words to anyone. Because I missed you too much, I couldn't walk when I saw Zhuzhu, who is also a girl. I made up for all my debt to you on her.
Zhuzhu smiled at me, just like you smiled at me, Zhuzhu called me Third Uncle sweetly, just like you called me Daddy. I held her in my arms, just like I held the young you.
Ah Yao, my love for Zhuzhu is not without reason, nor is it because your grandfather ordered everyone to love her. It is only because of you. I love her because I want to love you.
I have been a coward all my life, living in confusion and not understanding a single day. I used to think that I hated you and only liked Zhuzhu.
Until I heard that you were going to marry into the Xie family. I heard the news on my way back to Beijing. It was like a bolt from the blue. I was in a daze and almost fell off my horse several times.
It was then that I suddenly realized that I had been thinking about you since you were born. I was afraid that I would not be able to bear to see you and your aunt leave, so I never dared to look at you more. I loved Zhuzhu as much as I loved you.
But it's too late to regret. You and Xie Jibai were married by imperial decree. As a father, I can do nothing but watch you marry him, hoping that he will treat you better after marriage and not let you suffer any grievances... Ah Yao, what's wrong with you?"
