Xiao Zhenhai looked at her indifferently. Lian Shiya only felt a cold wind blowing past her. Knowing that she had spoken incorrectly, she quickly lowered her head in fear.

”Ya Er, don't interrupt uncle when he speaks. Hurry up and kneel down.” Madam Xiao pinched Lian Shiya's wrist and scolded her in a low voice.

Lian Shiya hurriedly knelt down. ”Uncle, Ya Er is wrong, you shouldn't interrupt.”

”Big brother taught a lesson right away. It was because little sister wasn't calm enough and had been tricked by this little slut time and time again. In the future, she will definitely learn from her mistakes and won't disappoint big brother.”

”Now, all of you have the same rank and position. I want you to sit as Lian Yanqing's wife for a short period of time and truly wield great power in the Residence of Prime Minister.” Those words came out of Xiao Zhenhai's mouth as his eyes emitted a dangerous aura.

The Xiao family's people trembled as they looked at Xiao Zhenhai and said, ”If it were in the past, little sister would have agreed immediately, but …” Lian Ru Yue has always been a hindrance, she is no longer the person Big Brother saw before. ”

”Hmph …” Xiao Zhenhai snorted coldly and said, ”You little brat. You made me make you tremble with fear. You are not worthy to be a member of my Xiao family!”

”…” The Xiao Clan member lowered his head in rebuke.

”Five days later, I want to hold a celebratory banquet in the manor. At that time, I want to see how powerful she is to make you afraid!” Seeing that the fighting spirit of the Xiao family was not as strong as it used to be, Xiao Zhenhai wanted to see the current Lian Yue even more. ”A direct daughter shouldn't be afraid. To you, the most important thing is to have a son.

Ever since she gave birth to Lian Shiya, she had taken up the majority of Lian Yanqing's favors. However, she had not seen any news of this belly, which had already become a sore point in her heart. Now that Xiao Zhenhai mentioned it, her heart felt even heavier.

”You and Lady Dong have studied medicine. How are you doing? Has the monthly practice of applying medicine been carried out on time? ” It was also Xiao Zhenhai's instruction that Lian Shiya would become a medicine girl that helped the world through a hanging pot, different from the one that was given to her by Lian Shiya. It was he who sent Senior Servant Dong to her as an ordinary Senior Servant.

Lian Shiya's eyes flashed with a hint of guilt as she lowered her head and said, ”Ya'er follows to study every day. Lady Dong said that my medical skills have improved greatly. However, because Lian Ruyue tried to stop me, Grandmother did not allow me to practice medicine anymore. ” Seeing Xiao Zhen Hai frown, she immediately said, ”However, don't worry uncle, I will start again on the fifteenth of this month.”

She thought to herself that since she was already the county governor, her grandmother would definitely not disagree with continuing to practice medicine at the gate of the Prime Minister's Estate.

”Apart from your medical skills, as well as your calligraphy and calligraphy skills, you must train hard in every single one of them. When the time comes to consider the matter of marriage, you must be worthy of the prince with the most influence.” This was Xiao Zhenhai's most basic requirement for Lian Shiya.

Even Shiya couldn't help but blush when she heard this. If she were to be matched with the most powerful prince, then she wouldn't have to care about all ten princes when the time came.

After leaving Lian Yan Qing's study, Lian Shiya breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, ”Mother, Uncle is really scary, much more frightening than Father. When he was angry just now, I thought he would ignore me.”

A trace of an unfathomable smile appeared on the corners of the Xiao family's lips. ”Don't worry. Your uncle won't give up on you no matter what.”

”Why? In the past, what Mother was worried about the most was that Uncle would just let us be as we please, right? ” Lian Shiya didn't understand where the Xiao Clan's sudden firm confidence came from.

”Let's go see Rou Er. After her accident, we haven't gone to see her yet.”

”Alright.” Even Shi Ya didn't ask any further as she followed the Xiao family to Xiao Rou's Yi Cui Courtyard.

However, before he could even get close, he heard a burst of wailing and begging.
