Chapter 279 The old past

"I heard you got engaged not long ago?"

Mr. Si thought he had seen countless people, so he stared at the woman in front of him with scrutiny.

The coercion from Patriarch Si has long been immune to Sheng Jiuxuan. In her previous life, she had received this kind of gaze countless times.

"Yes."

Sheng Jiuxuan answered decisively and neatly.

"You are sincere!" Mr. Si narrowed his eyes, not knowing his emotions.

"You have lived a carefree life this year. How can such a woman with no responsibility be the mistress of our family?"

His voice was raised a few degrees, and the awe-inspiring tone could suppress people from speaking.

Sheng Jiuxuan smiled flamboyantly and recklessly, "Patriarch Si, I think you may not know what I am. I think it is too arbitrary for you to judge me as irresponsible based on this alone."

"Are you questioning me?"

Mr. Si has lived most of his life and is highly respected. I am afraid that in this imperial capital, it is rare to find another person who doubts the Patriarch of the Si family like this.

"Your understanding of me is just a superficial appearance that the world can see, which is deceptive and confusing. As for whether you can be the mistress of the Si family,"

"First, this identity, first of all, must be Cheng Yu's wife? Shouldn't this be in accordance with his wishes? Could it be that you and Mrs. Si are also controlled by your father without any love at all?"

"you you!"

Mr. Si was a little emotional, and was aroused by her.

Seeing him pointing at her, Sheng Jiuxuan finally lost her original calmness, but it was within her expectation.

She knew that Mr. Si didn't talk about anything else, but he never dared to slack off or neglect her for his first wife, and even planted a garden full of flowers for her. For decades, Mrs. Si was the first.

"Patriarch Si, please don't get excited." Sheng Jiuxuan smiled slightly, "I'm just making an analogy. You and Mrs. Si are recognized as husband and wife. How come your grandson's generation will beat mandarin ducks with sticks? Are you irrational?"

Mr. Si's expression was a little strange, as if he had thought of something, but he hesitated to speak.

"Is it because of the old young master of the Si family?"

The eldest son of the Si family that Sheng Jiuxuan spoke of was actually Si Chengyu's father, and also his father-in-law, and even his mother-in-law were mysterious.

"You," he looked up at her, his pupils dilated slightly, "did he even tell you this?"

Tell?

Well, as long as her husband knew, he told her without reservation.

However, Cheng Yu was still young at that time, and many things were hidden back then.

Mr. Si's face was stained with sadness, and he let out a long sigh of relief. "Ugh!"

"I'm just afraid that Cheng Yu will repeat the same mistakes. I don't want the tragedy to happen again. I have already lost a son, and I don't want to lose my grandson!"

His lips trembled slightly, and his face, which was no longer young, seemed to have aged ten years all of a sudden.

Repeat the same mistakes?What's the meaning?
With doubts, Sheng Jiuxuan wanted to find out more information on his face, "Mrs. Si, did she really die of mental illness? Didn't she?"

She hesitated to speak, and what she said next seemed a little offensive.

"Did our Si family kill her?"

Old Master Si smiled bitterly, a cloudy tear overflowed from the corner of his eye.
