The daily life of a concubine's daughter

Chapter 344 Let the elder sister be reborn again

After Shi Mingmo left Beijing, the Duke's Mansion was quiet for a while.

Shi Yao watched coldly. The old duke and the old lady's complexion became even worse, and their sickly looks could hardly be concealed.

Well, there's nothing we can do. Her life is also her life.

The only way she would have a chance to escape was for the Duke's Mansion to continue to be in chaos.

Old man and old lady, I'm really sorry for you.

Time flies, it is May and the Dragon Boat Festival.

Shi Yao had an imperial decree granting her marriage, and Shen informed her one day in advance that she would take her to the dragon boat banquet held in the palace.

The sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly. Today is another good day.

Shi Yao decided not to waste the good time and gave herself a holiday gift.

Early in the morning, she summoned the Book of Merits and silently recited with a smile: [Let my elder sister Shi Mingzhu be reborn again! My elder sister suffered in her last life and this life, let her remember the happy second life! ]

Merit Book: [Merit Value: 315

Respawn Points: 3

Host, are you sure you want to use one rebirth point on Shi Mingzhu? Once used, it cannot be returned, and Shi Mingzhu will gain the memory of her past life. 】

Shi Yao said expectantly: [Confirm! Confirm!]

Merit Book: [Used successfully! Shi Mingzhu has been reborn.

Merit value: 315

Respawn point: 2]

Shi Yao: [Book of Merits, Book of Merits, don't run away yet. Is it the memory of my elder sister's second life that was reborn? ]

The Book of Merits was noble and cold, and it flew back to Shi Yao's mind in a flash.

Shi Yao tried to dig it out but couldn't.

She called out the Book of Merits in her mind in a chaotic manner and asked various questions until she was tired. Then she gave up communicating and called Banxia in to help her get dressed.

The dragon boat banquet was held on the banks of the Mingyue River.

Both sides of the river were filled with onlookers, and the crowds were shoulder to shoulder.

Peddlers carried their goods on their shoulders and shuttled through the crowd, shouting constantly.

Before the emperor arrived, all the officials and their families took their seats first.

Six people came to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion today: the Duke of Zhenguo, Shi Jian'an, Rong, Shen, Shi Mingchen and Shi Yao.

Before leaving, Shi Yao looked at her family of six and was secretly happy: the eldest master, the third master, the third wife, the second wife, the third son, and the third daughter.

Just putting this combination here is enough to make people laugh.

The eldest master and the third master rode in one carriage, the second and third wives rode in one carriage, and Shi Yao was forced to ride in one carriage with Shi Mingchen.

The wound on Shi Mingchen's face healed, and Shi Yao began to like him a little better.

The brother and sister seemed to be competing with each other, and they were silent for a while. Shi Mingchen was the first to give in, and said sullenly: "On the way to the border, Sixth Brother was heartbroken when he thought of Sixth Sister-in-law abandoning him. He fell off his horse and broke his leg. He is now recovering in Liyue City.

It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, but the emperor has ordered him to report to the border before he can wait until his injury is healed."

What a waste! Shi Yao glanced at him, said softly, and waved the silk fan in her hand faster: "It's really hot today, luckily I brought an umbrella."

Shi Mingchen choked and asked in a deep voice, "Did Sister-in-law Six know that Brother Six was ill?"

Shi Yao picked up the icy bowl of yogurt, ate two spoonfuls, and answered impatiently: "How should I know? Sixth sister-in-law won't tell me everything."

Shi Mingchen couldn't help but teach her a lesson: "Girls should eat less cold food."

Shi Yao hummed twice, scooped a large spoonful and put it into her mouth, sighing with satisfaction: "It's delicious! It's finally cooled down."

Shi Mingchen licked his lips, his mouth watering, but Shi Yao's portion was prepared by Banxia, ​​not by Huaixi, so he could only stare blankly at Shi Yao while she ate, mumbling:

"I am your brother after all, how can you eat alone?"

Shi Yao swallowed a mouthful of yogurt. The cherry jam was sour and sweet, very refreshing. Then she sneered: "And you all ate it, and I was all alone with nothing to eat. When I saw you, why didn't you remember whose brother you were?"

Shi Mingchen remembered the scene when he and Shi Yao were punished and cooked porridge together.

There was indeed one time when Zhuzhu brought cakes to visit them and distributed them to everyone. Shi Yao was the youngest, so by the time it was her turn, all the cakes were gone.

He hesitated about giving his share to Shi Yao, but he didn't want to be a loner and join everyone in ostracizing her.

He would occasionally dream about Shi Yao's embarrassment at that time, and often stayed awake until dawn because of shame for his cowardice.

Shi Mingchen refused to admit that he had been soft-hearted: "That time, you didn't suffer any loss. Later, you ate the exquisite meals sent by the big kitchen by yourself, and we drank porridge and watched you eat, didn't we?"

Shi Yao rolled her eyes at him, not wanting to pay attention to him, and continued eating her cherry yogurt.

Shi Mingchen complained in a low voice: "You really hold a grudge. It's such a small matter, I forgot it a long time ago, but you remember it."

Shi Yao suddenly frowned and sneered, "You who have done evil are of course generous and quick to forget! I am the one who has been wronged. I tell you, I will remember this 'little' thing for the rest of my life!

Don't argue with me. If you have the guts, ask Sixth Brother to be more generous and stop arguing with Sister Wang! How could he be so stingy that he broke his leg out of anger?

And you, you are so generous, so generous that you even pulled your ex-fiancee and let her brother beat her into a pig's head! You are so generous, why don't you let Xie's sister go?

"Go away! I'm just eating. Am I bothering you? If you don't want to stay in the same room with me, go out and ride your horse!"

"..."

Shi Mingchen shrank silently into the corner, lowered his head, and dared not say another word.

He was secretly annoyed at himself for being so bad-mouthed. He clearly had good intentions at the beginning, so why couldn't he say that he had thought about giving the pastries to Shi Yao?

He doesn't go out riding.

The ten brothers and sisters of the Shi family had already become famous in the capital. Their older brothers and younger brothers had all run away, so he would definitely be laughed at if he went out.

Besides, Shi Yao is about to get married.

For some reason, his eyes started to sore just thinking about it.

This younger sister had been home for less than a year when she had to leave forever and become the daughter-in-law of another family.

It was obvious that Shi Yao had never been gentle or kind to him. Every time they met, she was always sharp-tongued and spoke harshly to him.

At this time, the carriage stopped and the voice of the carriage maid came from outside: "Seventh Master, Second Miss, here is the carriage of King Cheng. Please get off the carriage and greet him."

Then, another woman's voice came, "Second Miss, the eldest aunt wants you to go to her carriage to chat and kill time."

Shi Yao kicked Shi Mingchen away, took a soft pillow and stuffed it behind her, then lay down on the seat, eating yogurt while saying softly, "Go tell my aunt that I have a heat stroke, so I'm sorry I can't come to see you, and I can't go to see my elder sister."

Shi Mingchen: “…”

He rubbed his aching waist, got out of the carriage, and thought to himself, this girl has really strong legs.

In less than a moment, Shi Mingzhu came in person, the rings and bracelets on her waist jingled. After sitting down, she smiled coldly and said, "Second sister, how come you got a heat stroke while eating ice cream? You are not lying to me, are you? It's okay to lie to me, but to lie to His Royal Highness is a crime of deceiving the emperor."

Shi Mingchen also came in and huddled in another corner, giving Shi Yao a helpless look: I tried my best, it was Zhuzhu who insisted on seeing you.
