The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Huo Junyu caught up with the angry Qian Duoduo and patted him on the shoulder:

"Hey, aren't you usually quite capable? How come you became like this just because of this little thing?"

"A small matter? My father openly protected that woman and bullied my mother. How can this be a small matter?"

Qian Duoduo stopped, turned around and said angrily to Huo Junyu.

But at this point, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate for him to get angry at Huo Junyu, so he exhaled again, turned his face to the side, crossed his arms and said:

"Well, you still have some conscience to tell me the news, but I won't repay you. After all, you told me the news just for fun!"

Huo Junyu rolled his eyes and reached out to hit Qian Duoduo on the head. Qian Duoduo cried out in pain.

Hearing Qian Duoduo's cry of pain, Huo Junyu finally felt more at ease and said:

"Don't judge others by your own standards! I'm telling you, I'm not the same person I used to be! I have my mother's teachings! My mother taught me etiquette and right from wrong! My mother is amazing!"

When talking about Shen Qinglan, Huo Junyu's little face showed a hint of pride and honor.

He used to envy Qian Duoduo’s mother for protecting him in every way, but now, he doesn’t have to envy other people’s mothers anymore!

Because his own mother is tens of thousands times better than anyone else's!

Qian Duoduo rolled his eyes, but thinking of Shen Qinglan's elegance and grace, and the fact that he had helped his mother today, he did not refute and only said:

"Hmph, my mother is good too. She will teach me martial arts! In the future, I will definitely return to the General of the Cavalry's Mansion to inherit my grandfather's legacy."

"Humph! My mother is a first-rate archer. Just wait for me to learn from her and make you envy her to death!"

The two of them argued with each other until the servants came to urge Huo Junyu to leave.

But before leaving, Huo Junyu suddenly seemed to have thought of something, tilted his head and said to Qian Duoduo very seriously:

"Hey, you want to stand up for your mother, but what you just did will actually cause trouble for her."

Although it makes one feel relieved, but in this way, wouldn't Qian Duoduo be passing the accusation of being unfilial and unfraternal to Aunt Liu?

"Then what else can I do? Should I ask my grandfather for help?" Qian Duoduo said unhappily.

"No, if you want your mother to stand up straight and your father to be afraid of you, it's useless to ask anyone else. You have to do it yourself."

Huo Junyu shook his head, and the dandy and arrogant look on his face disappeared completely.

"I want to do well on my own? But I'm only seven years old. Even if I want to go to war right away, no one wants me..."

Huo Junyu rolled his eyes, knocked Qian Duoduo on the head, and cursed:

"Stupid! I want you to study hard! If you do well in your studies, you will bring honor to your mother!"

"Just say it! Why do you always hit me?" Qian Duoduo covered his head and stared at Huo Junyu depressedly.

Huo Junyu laughed twice and shrugged innocently.

He was just imitating his elder brother's behavior, and suddenly he found that it felt really good to call people stupid and hit them on the head like his elder brother did!

No wonder the eldest brother likes to hit him on the head! If someone else were to scold him, he would seem to like the feeling.

Thinking of this, Huo Junyu suddenly had an idea. He looked at Qian Duoduo with a fox-like smile and said:

"Actually, I have an opportunity here. Let's see if you are willing to come."

"what chance?"

The two little ones came together and bit each other's ears quietly. Qian Duoduo asked suspiciously, "Is it true?"

When Huo Junyu heard Qian Duoduo's doubts, she immediately raised her little face proudly and said:

"How could it be false? My mother can't lie to me! Just wait! I'll have someone notify you when the time comes."

"Okay! If I can really be successful, I will recognize you as my big brother from now on!"

"Don't worry, I've got you as my little brother!"

Since such a thing happened in the Shangshu Mansion, Shen Qinglan naturally couldn't stay there any longer.

The Shangshu's wife was not in a very good mood, and did not try to keep Shen Qinglan. She just held Shen Qinglan's hand and sighed:

"My sister and I hit it off right away. I'm lucky that she reminded me today. Otherwise, if I had thought about looking for evidence, I'm afraid it would have been too late. When I have time another day, I will definitely come to thank you."

"It's just a simple task. Sister is just confused by the situation. However..."

Shen Qinglan shook his head, then seemed to have thought of something, and hesitated to speak but stopped.

Seeing Shen Qinglan like this, the Shangshu Madam wondered what she didn't know. She said directly:

"Sister, just tell me what you have to say. I have no problem believing you."

Seeing that the Shangshu's wife was straightforward, Shen Qinglan did not hide it anymore, but spoke carefully:

"I just looked at the child... He doesn't look like a seven-month-old baby. Also, I just asked Shuwen to check, and there are a few corpse spots on the child's neck..."

After pondering for a while, Shen Qinglan said meaningfully:

"Besides, look at Aunt Liu. She just had a difficult birth, but when she cries her voice is as loud as a bell. Although she looks tired, she is in good spirits..."

Shen Qinglan said this and didn't say anything else.

She believed that if the Shangshu's wife was not stupid, she would definitely investigate this aspect carefully!

As for what choice the Shangshu's wife would make after finding out the results, that was not something she could comment on.

Furthermore...

That concubine Liu looks smart, but her methods are actually clumsy.

Of course, it is not ruled out that it might be because the Shangshu's wife did not give her a chance on weekdays, which led to Aunt Liu happening upon the bird's nest incident and having the idea on impulse.

So the preparation was too hasty, resulting in this game being full of loopholes...

Upon hearing this, the Shangshu’s wife was stunned for a moment, and then she suddenly realized something!

She was extremely angry at what Aunt Liu had done, but she couldn't help but hold Shen Qinglan's hand with gratitude and said solemnly:

"Good sister! I've made note of this! You've helped me a lot! If you need any help in the future, just let me know! Not to mention the Shangshu Mansion, at least the Huqi General's Mansion will definitely help you with all its strength!"

After a pause, the Shangshu Madam seemed to have thought of something, looked around, and whispered in Shen Qinglan's ear, solemnly:

"Sister, you must be careful of the Eighth Prince."

"Eighth Prince?"

Shen Qinglan was stunned for a moment, unable to react. How did this involve the Eighth Prince?

The Shangshu's wife did not hide it from Shen Qinglan and continued to explain:

"Because of you, Wang Jian was demoted. I'm afraid he must be holding a grudge against you!"

"And Madam Wang Jian's biological sister is the Eighth Prince's concubine. She is very favored. Who knows, she might whisper in the Eighth Prince's ear and cause trouble for you."

Shen Qinglan was stunned when he heard this, and immediately bowed to the Shangshu's wife and said:

"Thank you for the reminder, sister. I will be careful."

On the way back, Shen Qinglan always felt that there was a knife hanging over their heads, making them uneasy and they couldn't help but think carefully...
