Chapter 871: Greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant.

Ling Heng, who was standing next to him, looked at Shen Xia and this Madam Shen and saw that they seemed to have a close relationship.

No matter how you look at it, they seem like close people, but from the information he found, he didn't find any connection between them.

Of course Ling Heng didn't think any more about it, as long as he understood that they had a close relationship.

Ling Heng listened to the mother and daughter talking, and quietly poured tea for them without saying a word.

Mother Shen looked at Ling Heng and told the truth.

Who doesn’t like a son-in-law who is good-looking and capable?

But it seems that Ling Heng is a cunning person.

Comparable to the fourth and third brothers.

There are too many people with such cunning minds.

Will there be a fight?

Although there were quite a few before, at least they were all brothers.

So there wouldn't be a big fight, but it's different now!

I always feel that Ling Heng is not simple.

Ling Heng may have also noticed the look in Shen's mother's eyes.

He didn't care and continued to peel the fiery red fruit in his hand.

Shen Xia looked at Shen's mother.

Of course, I also felt that my mother seemed to want to say something?

But because Ling Heng was here, it seemed difficult to speak up.

It’s okay, they both have plenty of time anyway.

Let’s talk about it when we have time!

After a while, Li Yi came.

Shen Xia looked at Li Yi and said enthusiastically, "Come over and have some tea."

Li Yi stepped forward and nodded: "Okay." Then he looked at Shen's mother and said respectfully: "Hello, Madam Shen."

Mother Shen smiled and said, "Why call me Madam Shen? Just follow Xia Xia and call me godmother."

"Godmother."

"Ah."

Mother Shen looked at Li Yi. Although his appearance was not as outstanding as Ling Heng's, Mother Shen knew that Li Yi had been with her daughter for almost five years.

He always obeys his daughter's words.

So it seems that it is relatively close to Yi.

Ling Heng frowned beside him.

What's so good about Li Yi? He's not even as sweet-mouthed as herself. He's like a piece of wood and has no sense of romance.

Why do so many people value him?

Li Yi just sat down.

Shen Xia took the teapot next to Ling Heng and picked up a cup: "Drink some tea to quench your thirst, and we will have dinner together here later."

"it is good."

Ling Heng: She only poured tea for Li Yi and never poured tea for herself.

Shen Xia: You can’t see that your teacup is full.

Li Yi looked at Shen Xia after he entered the mansion.

We just returned home together.

After returning home, he went straight back to his own yard.

I originally thought that I would have lunch alone at noon, but I didn't expect Xia Xia to come and call me to have lunch together.

Li Yi was still quite happy in his heart.

The four of them talked together.

It’s time to eat at noon.

Father Shen just left the study.

Looking at his daughter, they started chatting enthusiastically again.

Of course, we were just talking about some daily topics.

After all, in their eyes, Li Yi and Ling Heng were still outsiders and they couldn't say anything.

Of course Shen Xia didn't ask her father how the design went.

But there is no rush now.

It still takes time to buy things in Huayu.

In addition, she had to go to the Anwen Army with her mother.

After meal.

Shen Xia said goodbye to her parents.

Then he walked into his own yard.

Arrived at the gate of his own yard.

Shen Xia looked at the two of them and said, "You should go back and rest as well! The sun is strong at noon."

Ling Heng looked at Shen Xia and asked, "You are going to the palace for a banquet tonight."

Shen Xia nodded: "Yes!"

Shen Xia was curious why Ling Heng suddenly asked this.

Then Ling Heng said, "I'll go with you!"

Shen Xia raised his eyebrows: Brother, in what capacity are you coming with me?

Ling Heng probably understood Shen Xia's meaning immediately.

Then he explained: "Ruyi's skills are not good, I am worried about you, I can use Qianyu's appearance and be a maid beside you."

Shen Xia's mouth twitched.

What a luxury.

The leader of Baixiao Pavilion served as his maid.

What a big deal!

No, with his identity as Qianyu, he probably knows a lot of people!

I have many hobbies all day long.

Suddenly I thought of this, has he ever had...

Forget it, what happened before is what happened before, and I’m too lazy to ask too much.

Shen Xia looked at him and asked, "Qianyu looks like she knows a lot of people, right?"

Ling Heng shook his head: "Not bad! Not much."

Although Shen Xia became more cautious about safety because of what happened last time.

But thinking about Ling Heng being by his side under the identity of Qianyu.

Forget it.

"No need. My eldest brother will go to the palace banquet tonight. We will come back together and nothing will happen. Besides, the palace is still safe."

What else does Ling Heng want to say?

Li Yi said slowly: "I will wait for you at the palace gate tonight."

"Okay!"

Seeing that Li Yi said this, Ling Heng definitely couldn't go with them.

"Okay, let's go back and rest!" Shen Xia said and turned away.

Li Yi looked at Shen Xia's back as she turned around.

Then he turned around and left back to his own courtyard.

Ling Heng watched as everyone left.

What kind of hobby is this? I need to take a lunch break!

He never takes a lunch break.

Shen Xia returned to her own yard.

I don't see Song Jiang, I only see Song Jin.

When Song Jin saw Shen Xia coming back, he stepped forward and asked, "Has Xia Xia eaten at her godmother's place?"

Shen Xia nodded: "Yes!"

Shen Xia did not ask her elder brother how he handled the matter. Since the matter was handed over to her elder brother, she would not interfere.

No matter whether elder brother does what she wants or not.

Song Jin walked forward, took Shen Xia's hand, and sat down next to her.

Although Shen Xia did not ask, Song Jin spoke up in advance: "The eldest brother sold those two people directly to the slave market."

When Shen Xia heard the word slave market, it was even more chaotic than the place where she bought people before!

People who come to buy things from places like that are even less likely to take people seriously.

But the person who sells that thing is expensive, and the buyer is also expensive.

So, although they are all places that sell people, there are differences between them.

Normally, people go to the Ya Ren Market to buy normal servants.

The people in the slave market are a little more expensive.

That day would be even more miserable.

After Shen Xia heard this, she didn't feel any sympathy at all.

She said that if they told the truth she would spare their lives, but how long they could live was none of her business.

If the two of them had not had any ulterior motives, they could have lived a good life.

Song Jiang was not a cruel and ruthless person at all, it was they who were getting too greedy.

It's really a shameful thing.

This is not fate, it is caused by one's own desires.

Only 5% of the things in your life are what you are bound to encounter.

The remaining 95% depends on your 5% decision.

So they have to bear the consequences themselves if they take the wrong path!

Song Jiang saw that Shen Xia didn't say anything.

He continued, "Brother knows he is wrong. Xia Xia can ignore you for a while, but can Xia Xia give you a chance? You have little experience in this kind of thing, so you have no defense at all and you only want to fight."

Song Jin spoke carefully for his elder brother.

Shen Xia looked up at Song Jin's cautious expression.

But third brother, do you understand?

You both came from the countryside together, so you face no more temptations than he does.

This kind of thing has never happened to you, but it happened to your brother and you don’t know how to deal with it.

It's really disappointing.

Shen Xia could only comfort herself, it’s okay to be soft-hearted!
