Shen Lifeng's scalp went numb from Shen Zhu's gaze.

He originally wanted to ask for some money, to show off and reveal this secret, he did not have any ideas at the moment, nor did he know how to tell Zhu Huiru that he was not from his Shen Family.

"But mother has been with you for so many years. You should be filial to her, so you have to be filial to her. The silver …"

Halfway through his words, he saw Shen Zhu's cold gaze towards him, and stopped in his tracks.

Shen Zhu scoffed, he did not care about Shen Lifeng and turned to leave.

She used to think that no matter how extraordinary Zhu Huiru was, he was the original owner's biological mother.

Now he knew everything! Silver? Dream on!

Shen Lifeng was a stubborn person, but when he saw that Shen Zhu did not scold him in anger, but instead shot out his blade eye at him, he could not help but feel weak.

He forgot, this Shen Zhu was no longer the same Shen Zhu as before.

This woman in front of him, was no longer afraid of Mother …

Sunset, red clouds.

When Shen Zhu returned, Su Zongwen was already home.

Su Zongwen saw that Shen Zhu's expression was not right, and asked with concern: "What happened?"

Shen Zhu came back to reality and placed the thing in his hand on the chair outside. He then supported his face with one hand as he sat down.

"Today in town, I ran into Shen Lao Er …"

She told him everything that had happened.

After she finished speaking, she looked at the man with a sorrowful expression. She didn't know how to describe her feelings, "If he hadn't spoken so quickly today, I'm afraid he would have been kept in the dark forever."

On the way back, he suddenly felt sad for himself.

She had always been alone in this world. Although she did not have any feelings for her parents, she was still a close relative of the original owner. She could be considered to have a family.

But now it would seem that she was only left with one person.

After she and Su Zongwen finished talking, her mood became a lot better.

Ruanruan's crying sounds could be heard right after, causing the corner of his mouth to twitch.

Well, at least she had a daughter now, born in October.

Seeing her lowered her head, Su Zongwen thought that she could not accept this fact and comforted her: "Even if you aren't the Shen family's biological daughter, you are still my, Su Zongwen's wife. Marrying my Su Family, is equivalent to being a member of my Su Family."

The man's voice was deep and powerful.

Shen Zhu looked blankly at the man's side profile as it was dyed in multicolored light, her gaze burning with passion.

A warm feeling rose in her heart, and she smiled faintly. "Yes."

Yes, she still has people from the Su Family!

The two of them did not notice that Ah Qiu was standing at the door, laughing while retreating a few steps.

Zhuer saw that the Ah Qiu was sneaking around and curiously walked over: What are you doing?

Ah Qiu was shocked, seeing the approaching person, he snorted: "What are you doing here?"

She looked at Zhuer with an alert expression.

Zhuer peeked through the door, and his face instantly turned green.

Shen Zhu's hands casually rested on Su Zongwen's shoulders, his gaze sweeping across them.

Zhuer, "Shameless, how is that proper?!"

The Ah Qiu said: "I am a couple, even if you are so strong in front of me, what can you do about it?"

"You … A big girl's house, you don't know shame. "

"Tsk, jealous woman. If you cannot get married, you are not allowed to be loved by others. "

"You! That's because I don't want to marry, and there are a lot of men in the town who marry me back. "

"Yes, they all need to be filled in as concubines."

Ah Qiu was able to handle it well.

This woman was simply making things difficult for him.

"You … Liu Qiu, you and that woman Shen Zhu have learnt so much, you better be careful that you don't get married. "

Ah Qiu laughed: "At least it's better than you trying to act coquettish."

She ignored him and returned to her kitchen.

Zhuer glared furiously at the beautiful figure of the Ah Qiu, so angry that he did not know how he scolded her back.

She looked at Shen Zhu's courtyard unwillingly. There was no one left, she turned and left angrily.

In the kitchen.

Madame Chen threw the noodles into the pot and said to Shen Zhu who was seated beside him. "Yue Niang, I saw Zhuer at the door just now, but I did not come in."

Shen Zhu placed the well-prepared Clear Light Fruit at the side: "Mother, it's fine if we don't need to care about people like Zhuer."

He smiled helplessly.

A person like Zhuer could be considered to be someone who would go to the sky whenever he was disregarded.

They might as well … Zhuer had come to cause trouble for Shen Zhu, but she simply didn't know what to say.

Madame Chen nodded.

Suddenly, he remembered that when she served Shen Zhu, he had come in and talked a lot of weird things with her, suing her for her mercy.

Because he was a neighbor, he didn't want to get along with her, so he just laughed and ignored her. In the end, Zhuer left in a flustered manner and didn't come again.

"Mother, in a few days it will be Ruanruan's Hundred Day Feast. I think, while we're at it, we should also take Yi'er and Shuer to the village chief's residence."

Shen Zhu suggested.

When she returned, she wanted to see if there were any good young schools in the town.

Madame Chen nodded his head and quickly fished out a bowl of noodles, "Yi'er and Shuer are both sensible children."

Shen Zhu stared at the pastries in his hands, thinking back to when the boy came over in the afternoon with a bashful expression and said to her, "Mother, I still want to eat that monkey fruit."

As for the first time the child asked her for something, did it mean that she was slowly getting used to the life here?

Days passed, and very soon, it was Ruanruan's Hundred Day Feast.

On the day of the Hundred Day Feast, Su Zongwen and Shen Zhu reported their farewells to Uncle Chen, who returned early.

On the way back to the village, Su Zongwen specially hired a carriage to bring the family back to the village.

Shen Zhu carried the child. Just as he arrived at the courtyard, he heard Zhu Huiru's loud voice.

Seeing Shen Zhu coming out, Zhu Huiru said with a shrill voice, "Yo, great Lady Shen is so capable, look at the Hundred Day Banquet!"

"Why are you guys here?"

Shen Zhu frowned slightly in displeasure. She did not expect Zhu Huiru to actually come here with such a thick face.

Could it be that Shen Lao Er didn't find out that she wasn't from the Shen family when he returned?

"Why can't we come? What? Now that you have the money, you want to completely get rid of us, the destitute mothers? Just take it as if I didn't give birth to you. No matter what, I've raised you for more than ten years.

With a proud expression, a trace of panic flashed across Zhu Huiru's eyes.

If we were to talk about threatening Shen Zhu using their mother-daughter relationship, then now that Shen Zhu knew the truth, even the last strand of support was severed.

Shen Yao and the other Shen Family members quickly walked to Zhu Huiru's side, looking like they were about to fight.

There was nothing they could do, Su Zongwen who was beside Shen Zhu had a terrifying expression, if they did not stand together, they would be terrified!

Shen Zhu was worried that the child would be frightened again, so he instructed them to return to the hut first and let Su Qingyi carry Ruanruan back.

She and Su Zongwen faced this group of relatives together.

Shen Zhu, our family is almost unable to boil a pot, yet you are holding a banquet here, eating and drinking with gusto, do you still have any conscience?

Shen Lifeng said.

He was also very anxious in his heart, and he accidentally leaked the news of Shen Zhu's identity to his own family.

Zhu Huiru reprimanded him, if Shen Zhu really wanted to turn hostile, Zhu Huiru had no choice.

In this kind of big scene, those countryside elders who did not know anything, would stand at the Shen Family home and criticize Shen Zhu when they heard what Zhu Huiru said.

If she didn't want to be called an ungrateful ingrate in the future, she could only swallow her anger.

Shen Zhu looked at Shen Lifeng and the Shen family's eldest brother with a cold face, and gave a mocking smile.

"Big brother, second brother, why do you think your limbs are so good? How did you end up like this?" After pausing for a moment, Shen Zhu looked at Zhu Huiru with an expressionless face, "Mother said that it's better to be magnanimous than to be merciful. You should know what you have treated me with all these years, even without me saying anything. Besides, after my marriage, you came to me every now and then to ask for silver, rice, and food. If this does not count as filial piety, I would like to know, what is filial piety? "

The eldest brother and second brother of the Shen family were flustered by their words, and couldn't say a single word as the surrounding people pointed and pointed at them.

A man who couldn't even afford a home and needed his sister to support him was typically useless!

His spine was poked.

Zhu Huiru was flustered and exasperated: "I don't care, you have to give me the silver! The amount of filial piety you should pay cannot be lesser! After so many years, how much silver did I give you to pay for the food and clothing you would wear to the academy? Now that you're rich, you don't recognize me? "

"Shut up!"

Shen Chengjiu who had rushed over shouted.

When he went back, he was informed that Zhu Huiru had arrived at the Shen family.

Sure enough!

All these years, Shen Chengjiu had a good idea of how Zhu Huiru treated him.

He had always felt that he owed Shen Zhu.

"Are you done yet? All these years, have you ever treated Yue Niang as your real daughter? Don't talk about money, Yue Niang doesn't owe you money! " Shen Chengjiu shouted in anger.

"Great!" Shen Chengjiu, you are still defending her even now, and you still say that it isn't your illegitimate daughter who is outside? I think that's it! Ever since you were young, you have always sided with this little girl, no matter what you say, you must get her to go to school. Touch your conscience and tell me, are you carrying me on your back because there are other women out there! "

After Shen Chengjiu was forced to come here, not only did he lose face, all the discontent he had been suppressing surfaced in his heart.

"What nonsense are you talking about!?" It's simply unreasonable! "

Shen Chengjiu's face alternated between green and white for a while.

However, Zhu Huiru refused to forgive him and refused to let him go, "Am I lying or are you feeling guilty? You said she was picked up, how did you get the chance to pick it up? This is clearly an excuse! "

"You're clearly just messing around!"

Shen Chengjiu didn't want to waste time with Zhu Huiru and wanted to pull her.

As soon as he lifted his foot, he felt his vision darken.

Then, he fell straight to the ground.
