Chapter 121 Nanny Zhou
Chapter 121 Nanny Zhou
Under Shen Wen's hypnosis, Shen Pingchang recalled the past events that he had not dared to recall for so many years. When he talked about his infatuated lover, he cried like a child. Shen Wen slapped him and knocked him unconscious, cursing in his heart, "Shameless!"
Shen Wen thought about it and felt unwilling to give up. Following the previous process, she broke one of Shen Pingchang's fingers and hypnotized him again.
Shen Wen asked him again, "Shen Pingchang, it was your father who took away your future. I am the Great God of Ancient Reincarnation. You and I had a chance in our previous lives. Just tell me about the injustices your father has done. I will ask him to correct his mistakes and treat you fairly in the future."
Shen Pingchang was very excited after hearing this, and he wanted to kowtow like crazy, and then he told all the grievances he had suffered over the years. However, this guy was very petty, and even when he was a child, he wore open-crotch pants and was not given milk to eat, he told him about the biggest grievance of the day, and he almost told all the details of the past few decades.
Shen Wen was a very patient person, but he was also irritated by his nonsense. Shen Wen held his forehead and sighed, and couldn't help but look up and stop him, "Shen Pingchang said something serious enough to be beheaded. Your father is a ruthless hero. All such evil people must have had great achievements in their previous lives. If you don't finish talking about his evil deeds that are enough to send him to hell for several lifetimes, we in the God Realm will not bother to intervene. Quick! Tell it again, even the evil deeds done by your brothers one by one. Do you understand the key points?"
Shen Pingchang was very sensible this time, and even told her about the fact that the eldest master had lost his mind after drinking and accidentally broke into Shen Shuchan's room.
Shen Wen was extremely shocked, and only then did he understand why Shen Shuchan had become so perverted.
There was also the story of the second master spending a thousand gold coins to buy a skinny horse and ten thousand gold coins to raise a Hu girl, and sending ten treasure boxes to the border troops of Tianjing Kingdom to pave the way for buying medicinal materials. The second master would rather buy mountains and pastures to entertain his underworld staff, and was unwilling to pay Shen Pingchang a single ounce of silver. He even personally ordered someone to kidnap Shen Pingchang and send him to the casino to pay off his debt with his life.
The Seventh Master was even more powerful when he was an official. He once exiled the entire village for 3,000 miles. He once hosted a banquet for a wealthy merchant from Jiangnan on a boat and set it on fire. In order to find a sword for his son, he mobilized the garrison to hunt down the descendants of a retired general and fabricated charges to hunt down chivalrous knights.
In the past, Mrs. Shen loved to torture the slaves and concubines. In her courtyard, maids were often beaten to death and concubines died accidentally. The third and fourth masters she gave birth to were also influenced by her and treated people as worthless. People often died accidentally or were convicted and killed for a reason. Later, the third and fourth masters became officials under the influence of the old marquis. I think there must have been many people who died unjustly.
The Shen family is very powerful. Their disciples and old friends are almost present in the entire dynasty. They stand at the center of power and enjoy wealth and glory at their fingertips. Even if they are mediocre in qualifications or have bad character, there are always close relatives to pave the way for them. There is never a shortage of people who are willing to be stepping stones, so they have been fearless over the years, and even worse, they think that everything is their due and it is natural.
This is the art of being an official of the Shen family, and it is Lord Shen’s unique method.
As for the old marquis.
Apart from being too indifferent to his illegitimate sons and their children, he often demanded strictness from his eldest son, often punishing him by making him kneel down, and he would slap his ears and kick his feet when he summoned his second, third, and fourth sons, but he was not partial or harsh to his legitimate grandchildren, rewarding and praising them repeatedly.
And there is Shen Wen.
They paid great attention to him, kept him close to them, and made special exceptions for him in the family rules and etiquette, making all their descendants jealous and fearful, but also despising him. Just take the character Wen in his name for example, all male descendants should be named with the character Feng, and all female descendants should be named with the character Shui, so Shen Shuyuan and Shen Yuanyi (third in line, legitimate) all laughed at him.
Shen Wen wrote down everything Shen Pingchang said, whether it was hearsay or what he saw with his own eyes.
Time passed quickly and it was already four o'clock in the morning. Shen Pingchang fainted again.
Shen Wen wanted to go back and ask Shen Pingchang about the details of the man who gave birth to him, the Crown Prince, and Lord Shen. But time was too tight, and Shen Pingchang's energy had reached its limit. If the situation got out of control after hypnosis again, he might become insane.
It wasn't because she was worried that he would go crazy, but the timing was wrong. After all, it was only her first day back home, and the old marquis would be suspicious. She had to make appropriate changes in front of the old marquis, but not to the point of being wary and fearful.
Shen Wen looked at Shen Pingchang, who was sleeping like a dead pig, and felt inexplicably angry.
We can't just let him off like this.
So Shen Wen took out the largest wine jar hidden under the bed and poured all the wine into the wooden basin used for washing face. Then he tied up Shen Pingchang's arms, dragged him headfirst to the footstool beside the bed, grabbed his head and pressed it into the wooden basin.
This went on repeatedly until Shen Pingchang was drowning in the water. He was unable to break free and, coupled with the alcohol he drank, he was half dead.
Shen Wen didn't let Shen Pingchang go until her anger subsided. She looked at the wine and drinks all over the floor and bed, as well as the wine bottles rolling on the floor, and tidied up the scene to make it look like Shen Pingchang had stolen wine and got drunk. Shen Wen was naturally the target of domestic violence by this bastard. She only had to pretend to be beaten by him as usual, and hide on the roof.
The next morning, Hua slept until dawn and only had time to dress up carefully before looking for Li Mahua. The master and servant had a quarrel before they ate the food brought by Li Mahua. However, before they had taken two bites of the food, Shen Wen's childhood wet nurse, Zhou Ma, came to their door.
Nanny Zhou was not polite to Hua either. She looked at Hua and asked, "You are so content to eat your breakfast? When you marry into your husband's family, you should regard your husband as your God. Your master hasn't even finished his meal yet, but you sit at the table to eat. Do you understand the truth? Are you a puffed-up person? Did no one teach you these things when you were born?"
The more Hua listened, the more she felt something was wrong. She frowned and asked, "Are you trying to say that I have no parents to teach me?"
Nanny Zhou waved her hands and said, "I won't argue with you about these things. I want to ask you where is my brother Wen? Why can't I see the shadow of my brother? How are you as a stepmother? How was he this morning? Didn't you even ask a maid to ask about it? I can tell you that my brother is very precious in front of the Marquis. If he knows that you have wronged Brother Wen, the Marquis will first punish you to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days and then punish your master. I'm not trying to scare you. Go and ask around in the mansion. How many times did the fifth master suffer from the old Marquis because of his son? The Marquis can't bear to see Brother Wen suffer any injustice."
Hua also knew about this, so she was frightened by what Zhou Ma said. She stammered, "I... I can't order the servants in my courtyard. As a stepmother, I can't go to my son's room to see him by myself, right? What's more, he slept in the same room with his father yesterday. His father knows better what's going on with him..."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Zhou interrupted and said, "What? You actually let him sleep in the same room with the Fifth Master. Doesn't my brother even have a room of his own when he returns home? You are the mistress of the house, so he should be an outsider? You are a black-hearted fool. If you push him into the Fifth Master's room, how can he survive? Don't you know that the Fifth Master... will beat him to death?"
As she said this, Nanny Zhou turned around tremblingly and went to the room of the Fifth Master Shen Pingchang, leaning on her big crutch.
Hua and her maid Li Mahua followed behind to find out the reason.
When they pushed open the door, they smelled the pungent smell of alcohol. When they walked in and took a quick look, they saw the floor was a mess.
Madam Zhou cried anxiously, "Fifth Master! I knew you would behave stupidly again when you saw him. Why can't you change your bad habits? He is your biological son after all. You are worse than pigs and dogs. As the saying goes, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. You-what can I say to you!"
As she was cursing, Nanny Zhou rebuked Li Mahua to go and check on Shen Wen and look carefully for his whereabouts. She must not be beaten to death, otherwise if the old marquis asked about it, they would all be kicked out of the house.
Li Mahua scratched his head stupidly and looked around the room for Shen Wen's hiding place.
The scolded Fifth Master Shen Pingchang was still sleeping soundly on his bed like a dead pig, occasionally touching his mouth to wipe his saliva.
Shen Wen, who had been watching the show after being woken up, sat on the beam and thought about Nanny Zhou.
In the past, she thought she was a kind woman with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Now she realized that this old woman was a brainwasher who was more experienced than the Nazis. Shen Wen could become a wooden man who was willing to be manipulated and directed by the Shen family, thanks to the words and deeds of Zhou Ma. Zhou Ma was very good at teaching people. In the eyes of this old woman, it was his fault if others were happy, and it was also his fault if others were angry. It was his fault if he obeyed and flattered, and it was also his fault if he escaped and avoided trouble. Even the future that no one could imagine was his fault. It was because the Shen Mansion regained its glory that it was not hit by this evil star. If the Shen Mansion fell into a low profile, it was because of this monster.
Shen Wen looked down on him.
Low-key and lonely? How can you be so lucky? Which family with high-rise buildings can escape the end of decline? Not to mention the price of sacrifice with his blood and tears? Wait! I don't know how many people see you unlucky, you are cursed, and the consequences will be ten times or a hundred times more, right?
When Nanny Zhou and the others failed to find Shen Wen, they hurriedly went outside to look for him. They also said that they must report this to the master and ask him to send more people to look for him?
After they left, Shen Wen left the room, felt his hungry stomach, and went to Shen Shuchan's boudoir to ask her for food.
