Chapter 13: Hypocritical Shen Family

Shen Ding Shan took his daughter out of the horse carriage. He pointed at the lacquered door in front of him, and there were two large stone lions at the door, the three characters ‘The General Mansion’ was hung up as the name plaque.

Shen Qing Ci still leaned her little head on her Daddy’s shoulder. Finally, she returned here again. She lived here in her previous life. She thought that it was impossible for her to come back in her entire life, but in the end, she came back in such a way.

In her previous lifetime, after their father passed away, she and her eldest brother and sister had no relatives. These so-called relatives squeezed even the last bit of wealth from them.

They took away her mother’s dowry and the all the wealth of the General’s Mansion. They also took possession of the General’s Mansion. If it were not for these people from the Shen family, her eldest sister would not have been forced to marry into such a family. She was killed and was buried in the sea of ​​flames, leaving behind ashes.

If these so-called relatives were not kind, she would be unrighteous to them in this lifetime.

“Let’s go home with daddy.”

Shen Ding Shan touched his daughter’s head again. There were two guards at the door; they stood upright, looking mighty and unyielding.

The door opened, and when they first entered, Old Shen Furen had already brought everyone over.

“Grandma’s little A Ning, grandma really missed you to death.”

(T/N: Yuck… This Old Shen Furen is disgusting. She was the one who sent them away. What “Grandma’s Little A Ning”? And what “missed you to death”? I wanna slap her… anyone with me?)

Old Shen Furen could really act… She should just go and act on the stage. If she doesn’t go to the stage, it would really a pity. Look at this appearance and facial expressions, how was it any different from those actors?

Maybe it was because she had already seen the old lady’s ability to change face and the hypocrisy of the so-called relatives in her last life, she felt that it was disgusting. How stupid was she in her last life, blindly thinking about dressing and looking better along with those women of the Shen family, and comparing with them, because she had a dad who was a general, but they didn’t.

However, in the end, they were all married off well by the old lady, but she and her elder sister never ended well, and even her eldest brother was left without a whole body.

Shen Qing Ci learned about the word “hypocrisy” from Old Shen Furen, while the idiom “back stabbing^[1]” was derived from Huang An Dong.

The lessons that she learned in her previous life were too heavy, and the betrayal and hypocrisy not only killed her father, but also her and her whole family.

Mrs. Shen was crying enough, and the two Furens from the second household also joined her. Old Shen Furen was about to stretch out her hands to hold Shen Qing Ci, but Shen Qing Ci twisted her small face, moved from her daddy’s right shoulder to his left shoulder, and avoided her.

In front of so many people, Old Shen Furen was left with a bright red face.

She smiled stiffly, “It seems that A Ning is still very good to me, huh?.”

She gave herself a way out, but everyone was tacitly aware of her shamelessness.

Old Shen Furen glared at Shen Qing Ci when no one was noticing, but was met with Shen Qing Ci’s cold and deep eyes. She felt a chill down her spine. Due to the suffocating feeling, she quickly covered her chest, panting unconsciously.

“A Ning is sleepy. I want to take her back to rest first. If aunt doesn’t mind, please go back.” Shen Ding Shan spoke coldly.
