The melon-eating system, everyone listens to my voice

"Girl, what can you do?"

It was the woman who spoke first.

The woman, Wu Laoer's wife, He Hua, couldn't help but lower her voice by several tones when she saw the fairy-like girl.

Wu Laoer was very surprised. He hadn't heard this tone for many years. His wife always yelled at him.

"Excuse me, is Aunt Wu home? She's the one who used to work as a wet nurse in a wealthy family."

Shen Zhao looked at the man and the woman and guessed that they should be Aunt Wu's family. This sentence not only stated his purpose, but also served as a test.

Lotus shouted towards the inner room,

"Mom, there is a very beautiful girl looking for you, do you want to meet her?"

An old and weak voice was heard, and it was Aunt Wu who walked out of the house with unsteady steps.

"Lotus, please come in, my dear guest!"

Shen Zhao strode quickly and soon arrived in front of Aunt Wu.

She looked at Aunt Wu's old face, her skinny figure, and her excitement, but she was indifferent. She said coldly,

"I think Aunt Wu has something to say to me, so she should just say it directly without hiding anything."

Aunt Wu wiped the tears from her face with her hands and said sternly to the couple who were standing by to watch the fun,

"Second brother, second brother's wife, you two should go back first. This is not something you can know. It could cost someone's life."

The two of them shrank their necks. Just as Hehua was about to say something, Wu Laoer grabbed her arm and dragged her into the house.

"Wu Lao Er, what are you doing?"

Lotus's angry voice echoed in this quiet space, and she just wanted to put her ear against the window.

Wu Lao Er directly pressed her to sit on the bed and said seriously,

"Lotus, this is not something we can get involved in. Mother is doing this for our own good."

Wu Laoer thought of his mother's dream talk and had a bad feeling in his heart. He also felt even more uneasy when he saw Shen Zhao, who looked like a daughter of a rich family.

The door to the yard was wide open, and the breeze was blowing, so even if someone wanted to peek or eavesdrop, it would not be easy.

Shen Zhao's voice was full of deep meaning.

"It seems that Aunt Wu's life is very interesting. She built such a big house at home.

Your son and daughter-in-law's clothes are very clean and tidy. I think the money that man gave to Aunt Wu must have been put to good use."

Aunt Wu knelt down tremblingly.

"This old servant greets the young princess."

From the first moment she saw Shen Zhao, Aunt Wu knew who she was.

Having served Princess Sheng since she was a child, Aunt Wu has witnessed Princess Sheng grow from a baby learning to speak to a young girl in her prime and then to a dignified and graceful princess.

She may not be able to describe what her child was like when she was a child, but Aunt Wu knows everything about Princess Sheng, from when her hair was waist-length to what she liked to eat and what she was allergic to.

But precisely because of this, Aunt Wu’s betrayal was a huge harm to Princess Sheng.

It is true that Princess Sheng doesn’t know now, but she will know sooner or later when Shen Zhao returns.

So since he has poured his feelings into Princess Sheng, how could he easily betray her?

Aunt Wu's life has become better now, and she has the time and energy to regret what she did in the past!

Give yourself some psychological comfort.

Shen Zhao said calmly,

"I am not worthy of being called a little princess. The moment you stole me away, I was no longer a little princess of the palace. Instead, I was a little baby who lost his life at some unknown time.

Aunt Wu, was it the concubine who ordered you to do this?"

After kneeling for a while, Aunt Wu felt uncomfortable all over her body and decided not to endure it anymore.

She already had one foot in the coffin. Since Shen Zhao didn't acknowledge that she was the little princess, there was no need for her to kneel.

She sat cross-legged on the ground, looking carefree. The sound was like fallen leaves blown by the wind, floating to the ground.

"Girl, I don't understand what you are talking about. Since you are not the baby you were back then, what qualifications do you have to talk about this?"

Shen Zhao stood in the yard and looked up at the huge willow tree above his head. Unfortunately, it was so old that its branches and leaves were almost all fallen off.

She casually pulled out a branch that looked fairly green and gestured with it.

"Auntie Wu, do you want to see Princess Sheng again so you can apologize to her?

What a pity! You can forget about it in this life. Since you think I am not qualified, I believe your grandchildren who are studying in the county may be qualified.

They probably don't know that their grandmother is so cruel that she would attack a child. They don't know that you are also a fickle woman. "

When he said the last sentence, Shen Zhao's expression suddenly turned stern and sarcastic, as if he saw through Aunt Wu who was sitting on the ground.

"Do you want me to explain your dirty thoughts again? When you get older, you can really think of anything.

Aunt Wu, please keep the things in your box well hidden."

"You, how do you know?"

Aunt Wu looked at the young girl in disbelief. She spoke in a mature manner, slowly and steadily, and went straight to the point and started threatening her.

Thinking of her despicable and disgusting thoughts twenty years ago, Aunt Wu no longer had the idea of ​​pretending to be stubborn.

If it really gets out, I will be disrespectful to my elders and my reputation for most of my life will be ruined, and I may even be despised by the whole village.

She stood up tremblingly, walked with old steps, came to a dim room, and finally was willing to light the oil lamp.

Aunt Wu took out a key from the wall, opened the small box she had moved out from under the bed with great difficulty, inserted it into the lock, and took out a beautiful but old-fashioned golden hairpin from it.

Holding it in your hand is like holding half a lifetime of memories.

Aunt Wu handed the hairpin to Shen Zhao and spoke slowly.

"This was given to me by the person who ordered me to do this. I was afraid that I would be silenced. She took this golden hairpin and said that if I gave it to the prince, he would know who the owner of the hairpin was."

"As for whether she is a concubine, to be honest, I don't know. I have never seen a concubine wearing this golden hairpin."

"That person gave me five hundred taels of silver notes back then. After spending so many years, there are only a few dozen taels of silver left. I won't give it to you."

After a pause, Aunt Wu said with some difficulty,

"Can you please spare my family? They don't know anything, especially my grandchildren who are going to take the imperial examinations."

Shen Zhao took the hairpin and ate Aunt Wu's melon, but there was no golden hairpin.

Asking whether it was the concubine who ordered it was also Shen Zhao's own test. It is estimated that only when he arrives in the capital can he get more specific information.

As for the punishment for Aunt Wu's family, Shen Zhao said nonchalantly,

"This is not something I can decide. After all, you lost a mother's precious child for fifteen years. How Princess Sheng handles it depends on what she thinks."

Aunt Wu couldn't have the nerve to ask Shen Zhao to plead for her.

Although she let Shen Zhao go, she also placed the princess' personal jade seal inside the swaddling clothes.

At that time, I thought that if the child was lucky enough to survive, I could use this token to recognize his relatives.

If Shen Zhao heard her thoughts, he would also refute them.

She did give some face. After all, the little princess who should have been a pampered princess became a peasant girl. She was very considerate of him by not killing all these people.

But Princess Sheng will definitely not let them go!

This is also the reason why Shen Zhao did not do it himself.

Wouldn't it be better to let Aunt Wu do everything she can, worry about it, and suffer psychological torture during this period?
