Looking at Shen Ningyuan's face so close to him, Ji Yunhuan's heart trembled with fear.

"Sister-in-law, I don't want to go in. I'm really afraid of snakes!"

"What are you afraid of? With your brother here, those snakes won't hurt you!"

Shen Ningyuan dragged Ji Yunhuan into the ancestral hall without saying anything.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, a bamboo green snake rushed towards Shen Ningyuan.

"Miss!"

Seeing the bamboo green snake rushing towards Shen Ningyuan, Lan Yin couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

In contrast, Shen Ningyuan seemed unusually calm. She pulled Ji Yunhuan in front of her and blocked the snake for her.

But in the blink of an eye, the bamboo green snake came face to face with Ji Yunhuan.

"ah!"

After Ji Yunhuan let out a heart-wrenching scream, she immediately reached out and shook off the Bamboo Leaf Green on her face.

But at this time, another thick and long rattlesnake quickly crawled towards Shen Ningyuan.

Shen Ningyuan was still not at all flustered. She flashed and hid behind Ji Yunhuan.

The rattlesnake changed direction again and rushed towards Ji Yunhuan.

Ji Yunhuan kept standing on tiptoe to dodge the rattlesnake.

Soon after, more and more snakes rushed towards Shen Ningyuan.

In response to this, Shen Ningyuan was not at all panicked. She just hid behind Ji Yunhuan and attracted the attention of the snakes to Ji Yunhuan.

Ji Yunhuan kept dodging the snakes, but no matter how she dodged, more and more snakes rushed towards her.

In desperation, Ji Yunhuan had to take out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve and sweep the yellow powder in the bottle onto every snake that approached her.

Strangely, after these snakes came into contact with the yellow powder that Ji Yunhuan sprinkled, they all avoided it.

After a while, all the snakes retreated, spitting out their tongues and looking at Shen Ningyuan and Ji Yunhuan from a distance that was neither too far nor too close.

After glancing at the snakes around, Shen Ningyuan walked to Ji Yunhuan's side and sneered, "I didn't expect that my sister-in-law actually carried realgar powder to repel snakes. It's such a coincidence that I just happened to use it."

Hearing this, Ji Yunhuan forced a forced smile and said awkwardly, "Sister-in-law, you don't know, I've been afraid of snakes since I was a child, so I always carry realgar powder with me."

"Oh...I see."

Shen Ningyuan smiled meaningfully, but didn't say much.

She didn't expect that Chen would let Ji Yunhuan attack her for the second time.

And, in such a clumsy way.

This made her doubt that Chen was really out of options.

At this time, after Ji Yunhuan glanced at these snakes, he looked at Shen Ningyuan and asked coldly: "Sister-in-law, it is really strange that these snakes suddenly appeared near my brother's coffin."

"Of course it's strange."

Ji Yunhuan continued, "Sister-in-law, do you think that your recent actions may have angered Big Brother, so he summoned these snakes to warn you?"

"Oh? Really?"

Shen Ningyuan turned her head and glanced at Ji Yunhuan with a half-smile.

He said nonchalantly, "If he can't stand it, just take me away."

“…”

Shen Ningyuan's words left Ji Yunhuan speechless, and a nameless anger arose in his heart.

She actually hoped that Ji Yunchuan's spirit in heaven could take the bitch Shen Ningyuan away.

This way she could save a breath and not be forced by Chen to rack her brains to find a way to take Shen Ningyuan's life!

Thinking of this, Ji Yunhuan glared at Shen Ningyuan angrily, wishing he could rush up and tear her into pieces.

This damn bitch has been causing her troubles frequently recently!

Seeing that the snakes had all hidden to the side, Lan Yin dared to walk into the ancestral hall tremblingly and came to Shen Ningyuan's side, "Madam, are you okay? I was almost scared to death just now. If you were bitten by a snake, you would be dead!"

Lan Yin was so worried that she almost cried.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine with my sister-in-law here." Shen Ningyuan said with a hint of meaning.

Lan Yin also understood the hidden meaning of her words and looked at Ji Yunhuan resentfully.

These black-hearted people still won’t let her young lady go even at this time!

Seeing Lan Yin was so impatient, Shen Ningyuan immediately ordered: "Go find a few servants to take these snakes away, so that no more snakes will come out and scare the guests on the day of the funeral."

"Miss, why don't you let this servant stay with you."

Lan Yin glanced at Shen Ningyuan hesitantly, with no intention of leaving.

Seeing this, Shen Ningyuan shook his head and signaled Lan Yin with his eyes to leave quickly.

Because she knew that Ji Yunhuan's plan was not over yet.

What she had to do was to give Ji Yunhuan the opportunity to take action.

She really wanted to see what big tricks Chen and Ji Yunhuan had come up with in the past few days.

Seeing Shen Ningyuan's insistence, Lan Yin had no choice but to obey her orders and go outside to call the servant in to clean up the snakes.

Then, Shen Ningyuan turned around and was about to leave.

As soon as I reached the entrance of the ancestral hall, Ji Yunhuan's voice came from behind me.

"Sister-in-law, wait for me!"

Shen Ningyuan stopped and turned to look at Ji Yunhuan, "Sister-in-law, is there anything else?"

Ji Yunhuan ran towards Shen Ningyuan, almost sticking to her body, "Sister-in-law, did I scare you just now? I'll take you back to Xiyuanju."

"No need." Shen Ningyuan refused directly, "I'm not scared."

Ji Yunhuan paused for a moment and continued, "Even if that's the case, there are so many snakes in the mansion. What if there are snakes on the way back? I'm worried about you going back alone, so let me take you back!"
