Shen Tai actually attempted to murder his grandfather.

It was a pity that he failed to steal the chicken and lost the rice instead, harming himself.

Doctor Liu asked for people to bring over a few porcelain bottles for disposal of the tea on the table. The servants took the desk outside, along with everything else on it that had been splashed by the tea, then burned it all. At this time, Duchess Ningguo and Second Madam Shen also showed up. Everyone was there except for the people from the main branch.

“Such misfortune, such misfortune!” Duchess Ningguo started to wipe her tears with the handkerchief in her hand.

Second Master Shen’s face was solemn, and Second Madam Shen’s face was covered in shock. Duke Ningguo sat there with his thick eyebrows furrowed and felt as if he had aged a lot from this brief period.

“Father, how should I explain this to my sister-in-law?”

Duke Ningguo slammed his hand onto the table, and the teacup that was on it jumped. “How else should you explain? She raised a good son who dared to make such a deadly move to his grandfather! Heh, his obedience and meekness before this were all an act used to fool this old man. True I was strict, but I never thought there could be someone this ruthless and ungrateful! Go call the eldest’s wife here, I will personally explain this to her! “

Soon, Eldest Madam Shen was brought over.

Before she stepped inside, she hadn’t noticed any abnormality at all. But once she came in, she saw how the entire family was there, and the scene was as if she was to be put on trial. She was a bit surprised, but once Duke Ningguo’s servant relayed what had happened she suddenly collapsed.

“How is that possible? How could my Tai Ge’er poison his grandfather? Are you lying? Are you all lying to me? Where is my Tai Ge’er? Where is he?”

Following Duke Ningguo’s gesture, two servants brought the body over. The corpse was covered with a layer of white cloth. Eldest Madam Shen was about to rush over, but upon hearing what Second Master Shen said, she paused and only dared to look at it from a distance.

“This poison is very strong. Tai Ge’er was poisoned from touching his wound with a finger that had come in contact with the poison, then died.”

A servant covered his hand with a piece of cloth then lifted the white cloth on the corpse. Eldest Madam Shen covered her mouth then let out a painful howl. Third Miss Shen was no better than her mother. Even though she despised this elder brother of hers, now that he was dead, there was only sadness.

Madam Shen’s face was pale, and her body trembled, but she managed to steady herself. Her eyes turned red as she stared at her son’s dead body, wishing to engrave him into her heart.

“You said that my Tai Ge’er tried to poison father, and had accidentally touched some of the poison before he died. If he were to harm someone with this poison, why doesn’t he know how strong it is and actually dares to do such a stupid thing as touching it himself? Also, why does my Tai Ge’er have so many scratches on his face? Did you do something to my Tai Ge’er? My dear Tai Ge’er is so unfortunate to be charged with killing his grandfather for no reason whatsoever. To be charged with such a great sin, his body wouldn’t even get to be buried in the ancestral grave… Whose path did we block that they had to use such a vicious method to deal with us widow and orphans…Brother Rui, if your spirit is still there, come take a look. May heaven’s punishment come down and smash these bad-hearted people to death…”

Second Master Shen had wanted to explain further. Yet after hearing his sister-in-law imply that he was involved and had even harmed Tai Ge’er deliberately, he was angered to the point of not knowing what to say.

Eldest Madam Shen’s words clearly meant that he had deliberately killed Tai Ge’er for the title of the heir so that no one in the main branch could fight for it.

“Sister-in-law, don’t you feel guilty for saying those words? It has nothing to do with us second branch…” argued Second Madam Shen.

Eldest Madam Shen was unwilling to listen and continued to cry. “…This is simply forcing us to die. Once we are all dead, everything will be according to your wishes…”

“Eldest daughter-in-law, no one wants to harm you and no one wants to harm your Tai Ge’er…”

“No one wants to hurt my Tai Ge’er, yet my Tai Ge’er died so miserably out of nowhere! Mother, I know you are biased towards the second branch but Brother Rui is also your son, the son who sacrificed his life for the Shen family. It has only been ten years since he was gone but now you treat his only son like this…I’m not going to live anymore, let me die with them together…”

Third Miss Shen was also sobbing, but she stubbornly held back her mother, who was about to slam her forehead against the wall. She said, “Mother, don’t scare me, don’t scare your daughter…”

“Shut up! Everyone, shut up!”

Following these words was the sound of something being smashed onto the ground. When everyone looked over, they saw Duke Ningguo standing there with his eyes shut in grief.

“Eldest daughter-in-law, your words were truly inappropriate! I have never mistreated your main branch and even if there was something I was sorry for, it would be for my eldest son who has nothing to do with you and your son! The position of the heir was bestowed by His Majesty, and regardless of whether we wished to or not, we must accept it. Even if the position of the heir was to be chosen by me, I would still give it to my second son, not Tai Ge’er!”

Eldest Madam Shen smiled before saying, “Father, you are finally willing to admit the truth…”

“As for why I wouldn’t give him the position, isn’t it all because of what you had taught him?”

“Craving glory while being a good for nothing. Having a vicious mind, yet not even the strength to truss up a chicken. With ambitions loftier than the sky, yet failing to achieve any accomplishments. Even if I were to give him this position, do you dare to let him accept it?!”

“I…”

“This unscrupulous child even dares to poison his grandfather. Does he truly think that after poisoning this old man to death, the position would belong to him? The truth is even if this old man is no longer here, even if the second child is gone, he still won’t be able to remain in this seat for long before being forced aside by someone else. It doesn’t matter whether you can accept this truth or not. But since you can’t accept it, move out of my Duke Ningguo Manor, lest you see each other as an eyesore while living under the same roof!”

Duke Ningguo’s words were harsh, obviously meaning to drive out the main branch, leaving Eldest Madam Shen unable to snap out of her daze.

At this time, Second Master Shen suddenly exclaimed, “Father, father…”

Duke Ningguo’s face was as pale as paper. He shut his eyes then collapsed.

Mini-theatre:

Xiaobao holding a cup of tea while stirring it with his chubby finger.

“Huahua, drink the tea.”

Tabby cat: *shrinks back* Meow…

Xiaobao: Tell me the truth, did you also experience a rebirth or was it my mother who arranged you to be here?

Tabby cat: *Continues to retreat to a safe place before sitting down to lick its paw in peace.*

Xiaobao: If you don’t say anything, I will invite you to drink the tea.

Tabby cat: But the thing is even if I were to say it, you must be able to understand. Meow…

Xiaobao: Huahua, don’t you know that you can’t just lick your paws like that? You saw how that person had died such a terrifying death.

Tabby cat: *As if being scalded, he shook his paw vigorously*

Meow, meow, you are so mean, meow, does your mother know?
