But in the past, people's feelings were always directed downwards. Parents love their children and children love the next generation of children but there were very few who love their parents more than their children. Shen Xin was the same. Between a mother who was not related by blood and his own flesh and blood, Shen Xin naturally would not hesitate to choose his flesh and blood. Old Shen Furen's words did not have any use in Shen Xin's ears.
He cupped his fists towards Old Shen Furen, "Mother, it is not that I am putting on airs in the residence but today's matter is really fishy. I am the Formidable Great General and if I cannot even protect my own daughter's safety, how would I have the face to see the Shen family's ancestors? Would it not be a shame to my prestige outside? I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter. Today should be celebrating Mother's birthday but this son is unfilial and is unable to watch Jiao Jiao fall into a predicament as if nothing had happened, so one can only apologise to Mother in the future. " His words were full of hidden sarcasm. Shen Miao was in a predicament but these Shen family people still had the mood to continue the banquet as if nothing had happened.
Old Shen Furen stood blankly at the same spot. Shen Xin had always been well-behaved towards her. When she was young, she had thought of using other means to kill Shen Xin but the Old General doted on Shen Xin like his lifeblood and did not give her any chance to do so. When Shen Xin grew up, there was no other way. But Shen Xin treated her with respect and she was happy to put on a show. This was the first time Shen Xin refuted her words in such a strong manner and she was so shocked that she did not make a sound.
Shen Xin then turned his head to look at Shen Gui and Shen Wan and said in a gloomy tone, "I will naturally investigate clearly what is going on in this matter. Second Younger Brother and Third Younger Brother, farewell. "He turned and strode away, not even looking at the rest of them. Shen Qiu quickly followed.
After walking out of the Eastern courtyard, Shen Xin then said to Shen Qiu, "Later give the fire rat fur cloak to your Younger Sister. I see that the danger in the residence is not comparable to the battlefield and your Younger Sister needs it more than Old Taitai. "
"Yes." Shen Qiu was overjoyed and immediately thought of something, "Father, before Younger Sister fainted, we have to check on what marriage matters. The Northwest has never received any news about these things. "
"Humph." Shen Xin said in a deep voice, "I see that there are quite a number of demons and ghosts in the General residence. This time your Younger Sister almost lost her life. Find those who do not want their lives and let this old man serve them with great torture!"
…
Residence of the Marquis of Lin An.
When Xie Jing Xing returned to the room, he saw a person sitting in front of the table. That person's white robes fluttered as he gently fanned himself and smiled at him.
"What are you here for?" Xie Jing Xing put down the sword in his hand and asked.
"I heard that you went to the Shen residence to look for something. What was the result?" Gao Yang asked with a smile.
"No."
"I have long guessed that the thing is not in the Shen residence." Gao Yang shook his head and a trace of disappointment flashed across his face, "If the thing is not in the Shen residence, what are you going to do next?"
"Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their supernatural powers." Xie Jing Xing sat opposite him and poured himself a cup of tea, "What else can it be?"
"But with Shen Xin's return to the capital this time, there might be new turbulence in Ming Qi." Gao Yang looked at him and the fan in his hand slightly paused, "At this time, will the Fu family …" He placed his hand on his neck and made a gesture of silencing someone.
"The Shen family's merits are too high to cover the Lord's, adding oil to the fire. Sooner or later there will be such a day." Xie Jing Xing drank a mouthful of tea and evaluated in a flat tone without a trace of sympathy.
Gao Yang shrugged his shoulders and suddenly thought of something. He took out a small green bottle from his bosom, "Last time I heard from Tie Yi that your hand was injured so I prescribed this medicine for you."
"What medicine do I need for a small injury?" Xie Jing Xing frowned.
"This medicine of mine will not leave a scar." Gao Yang forcefully stuffed the medicine bottle into Xie Jing Xing's hands, "It is not good to leave a scar."
"I am not a woman." Xie Jing Xing threw the medicine bottle back like he was avoiding the plague, "Take it back!"
"If you were a woman, you would cry and beg me for it." Gao Yang said, "Take it back. This medicine is very expensive. One bottle is worth a thousand gold."
Xie Jing Xing swept a glance at him and his lips curled up in disdain. But suddenly he thought of the sea of fire and the scene of the young female burning the tablet on her hand without hesitation.
Afraid of leaving a scar? That might not be the case.
After muttering to himself for a moment, he reached out and kept the medicine bottle back into his bosom.
