Chapter 250 Figure it out
Shi Mingkui lay on the couch, looking at the ceiling, and said calmly: "I thought she was greedy and would find an excuse to take all the banknotes in this box, but I never thought she would keep half of them.
Although his tone of voice was gentle, his words were full of determination. It was true that those who were barefoot were not afraid of those who wore shoes.
However, people can decide where they go, but they cannot decide where they come from. She wants to cut off ties with the Shi family and the third branch, but it is impossible. Her surname is Shi, and she will be Shi for the rest of her life. She is the daughter of the third branch of the Duke's Mansion."
Rong sighed and said, "After all, she is your biological sister. I was wrong in the past and didn't take her seriously. She is just a girl. Why bother to make things difficult for her? Building a good relationship will benefit both sides.
It’s too late to say these things now, so it’s better not to say them. From now on, you brothers should stop messing with her. I don’t ask you to treat her the same as Zhuzhu, I just ask you to treat her as your concubine sister.”
Shi Mingkui turned his head, stared at Rong and asked, "Mother, are you going to give up?"
Rong said solemnly: "Don't forget, in Zhuzhu and the others' dreams, you, the concubine sister, are not a good person. The queen has done it. It shows that when people are willing to give up, there is nothing they can't do.
I am afraid that we will not be able to help each other and benefit each other, but will be in trouble. Have you forgotten what your fifth brother said just now? Shi Yao and the others may have more prophetic dreams than Zhu Zhu!"
Thinking of Shi Mingying's words, Rong was quite afraid, so she only advised Shi Yao and did not dare to force her.
Shi Mingkui's eyes slowly turned red, and he choked up a little, "But mother, I am already a useless person! If you ask me to be honest, quiet, and do nothing, I will not be able to survive! I want revenge, mother, I want revenge!"
Rong burst into tears and held her son's hand distressedly. After hesitating for a moment, she slowly said, "Okay. Shi Yao is too smart. Since entering the Duke's Mansion, she has never suffered any loss.
Although he likes money, he is not greedy for money, and he has no desire for power and wealth. At first glance, he has no weaknesses.
However, she has an aunt who depends on her for life. Shi Yao is young, a little girl, and her ideas are too simple. She has never really suffered hardship or suffered a big loss, so her temperament is always noble. Her aunt is different. Ji has suffered enough losses due to her status and family background, so she will definitely persuade her to marry into a wealthy family. "
Shi Mingkui nodded, wiped the tears from his face, and a cold look flashed across his eyes.
At this moment, the third master came in carrying Shi Yunfan and asked angrily, "Madam, what is Shi Yao doing here? If this girl comes again next time, I will beat her out!"
Rong ignored him, stretched out her hand to Shi Yunfan, and said with a loving smile: "Brother Fan, come to grandma quickly."
Shi Yunfan first glanced at Shi Mingkui, shuddered, and timidly went to his grandmother's arms: "Grandma."
Shi Mingkui glanced over coldly, his brows stern and gloomy: "Yun Fan, why don't you greet the elders? It's so rude! What did Nanny teach you?"
The nurse following behind Shi Jianan knelt down hurriedly and said in a panic, "Fourth Master, calm down. The young master didn't mean it."
Rong waved his hand: "Go out, it has nothing to do with you."
The nurse quickly got up and left.
Shi Yunfan was trembling. After his father fell ill, his temper became unpredictable, and he became more and more afraid of his father.
The little man trembled and bowed to the three elders one by one: "Greetings, grandfather, grandmother, and father."
Rong hugged him in her arms and said, "Alright, alright, don't scare Brother Fan. When you were young, your father didn't treat you like this."
Shi Jianan was laughing and was about to reminisce with his wife about their daily life when they had their eldest son, when he heard Shi Mingkui sneer, "So the sixth and seventh sons grew up to be useless!"
The smile on Shi Jian'an's face suddenly froze.
Rong shook her head, lowered her eyes and asked in a gentle voice, "Brother Fan, did you meet your aunt just now?"
Shi Yunfan touched his forehead and answered carefully: "Yes."
Rong asked patiently, "What did you say to your aunt?"
Shi Yunfan didn't want to say anything, but his grandmother looked at him so gently that he was a little scared for some reason and could only speak incoherently:
"She said that my grandfather fell into the water yesterday and he jumped out of it by himself. She also said that Brother Fan must protect my aunt when he grows up. Also, my aunt invited me to her yard for dinner. Grandmother, is the name of my aunt's yard the same as the phrase 'Guan Guan Ju Jiu, on the island of the river'?"
Rong winked at Shi Mingkui and smiled at Shi Yunfan, "Yes, who taught you to recite it?"
The child pointed at the third master and answered loudly: "My grandfather taught me!"
Shi Jianan's forehead was covered with sweat, and he hurriedly explained: "This child is smart. I taught him to recite the Book of Songs, and he recited more than ten poems. This morning, when I randomly checked his homework, he happened to mention Guanju, so maybe he remembered it."
Rong smiled gently and said, "I didn't say anything about you, why are you feeling guilty?"
Shi Jianan blushed and raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat off his face.
Shi Yunfan said: "Grandma, I can still do it behind your back. A beautiful lady is a good match for a gentleman..."
Rong listened to him patiently until he finished reciting the last line. She kept praising him for his intelligence and said, "Your aunt's name is also taken from this poem. Next time you see your aunt, recite it to her, okay?"
"Okay! Don't worry, grandma, I will never forget it!" Shi Yunfan had never received so much attention from so many adults before, and he shyly hid in Rong's arms.
It seemed that his father's complexion had also improved a lot. Shi Yunfan quietly observed the expressions of the elders and silently recited Guanju several times.

On the way, Aunt Liu Hua said, "The Fifth Young Master likes the girl very much."
Shi Yao smiled and said, "Maybe it's because we have similarities."
Unpopular, observant, cautious, vindictive, villain, unwilling to suffer, swallowing grievances, rebelling at every opportunity, rebellious...
Shi Yao knocked her head.
She has achieved something great. She is compared to a four-year-old child.
Aunt Liu Hua asked, "The Madam was very polite to the young lady today."
Shi Mingying's face flashed through Shi Yao's mind.
Shi Mingying had just been beaten up by his fifth sister-in-law not long ago and his injuries were not light. The fact that he came to Fu Suiyuan with injuries must mean that the message he was conveying was very important.
Could it be that the fifth sister-in-law’s second life has been exposed?
Otherwise, why would Rong be so wary of her?
This is interesting.
Shi Yao pursed her lips and smiled, "Madam wants to make a profit from me, so she naturally speaks in a nice way. When I ask someone to do something for me, I also speak sweetly."
For example, her attitude towards the old Duke and the Lady Dowager.
Aunt Liu Hua asked again, "Why didn't the young lady take all the banknotes in the box? I think the Third Madam would definitely be willing to give them to her."
Shi Yao shook her head: "Aunt, I took the compensation money. The remaining money is the money for selling my body, so I must not take it."
Aunt Liu Hua suddenly came to her senses and said with a wry smile, "I was confused. I am not as clear as you." She added, "Don't worry, young lady. The old lady has been preparing a dowry for you five years ago. When you get married, you will be well-dressed and glorious."
Shi Yao was completely relieved, her eyes slightly curved: "Grandmother is indeed the person who loves me the most in the mansion. Aunt, look!"
She pointed to the stone bridge over the Invitation River.
