In her previous life, Shen Ningyuan was deeply devoted to her husband. Not only did she willingly live as a widow for him, but she also used her dowry to support his family.
However, in retur...
Chapter 152: The Blinded Mother
After hearing what Shen Ningyuan said, Cui Mingzhu’s eyes widened instantly.
It seemed that he had figured out who Shen Ningyuan was referring to.
The next second, Cui Mingzhu shook her head violently, denying Shen Ningyuan's words.
"It can't be her! She knows that I'm pregnant with Ji Yunchuan's child. She can't possibly be plotting against me with you!"
Shen Ningyuan raised her eyebrows, her eyes fell on Cui Mingzhu's abdomen, and asked with a smile: "Then who cut away the baby in your belly? Wasn't it Ji Yunchuan?"
Cui Mingzhu raised her head and looked at Chen Ningyuan in disbelief, "You...how did you know? On the day of the funeral, you were also in the other courtyard, and you saw Ji Yunchuan cut open my stomach with your own eyes!"
Shen Ningyuan sneered, “If Ji Yunchuan can cut open your stomach, why can’t Chen scheme against you?”
Cui Mingzhu gritted her teeth and couldn't utter a word.
At this time, Shen Ningyuan continued to sarcastically say: “Cui Mingzhu, people like you don’t even know how they died in the end!”
"Chen Ningyuan, you..."
"What do you mean?" Shen Ningyuan asked coldly, "Cui Mingzhu, the Shen family feeds you well, why do you want to join forces with Ji Yunchuan to plot against the Shen family?"
"Feeding me with good food and drink?" After repeating this sentence, Cui Mingzhu laughed directly, "Chen Ningyuan, are you sure that the Shen family is really feeding me with good food and drink?"
"My father didn't have to die. I could have been raised well in the Qinghe Cui family. It was that bitch Cui Jin who killed my father. In order to make up for the uneasy conscience, she kept me by her side."
"Do you think I don't know? Whether it's you, Shen Haobai, or Shen Haoyue, none of you think highly of me! You won't take me with you no matter what you do. Since you don't regard me as your sister, why do you keep me in the Shen family? Wouldn't it be better to let me go back to the Cui family in Qinghe?"
Listening to Cui Mingzhu's accusation, Shen Ningyuan frowned.
"Who told you these words?"
"What? Are you feeling guilty?" Cui Mingzhu asked back.
Shen Ningyuan shook her head, "It's not that I feel guilty, I just think you're stupid."
Cui Mingzhu's expression changed instantly, "Who are you calling stupid?"
"You are stupid, Cui Mingzhu. You have been raised in the Shen family for these years. You can see clearly how good the Shen family is to you. You believe what others say. The Shen family has done so much for you, but you turn a blind eye to it!"
Cui Mingzhu was speechless.
Seeing this, the mockery on Shen Ningyuan's face became even more intense.
"Not talking? You agree?" Shen Ningyuan shook her head helplessly, "Sure enough, Cui Mingzhu, you know better than anyone how good the Shen family is to you, but you are an ungrateful person who betrays his own people!"
"Chen Ningyuan, who are you calling an ungrateful wolf?"
Cui Mingzhu was so anxious that she almost sat up from the bed.
But as soon as she moved, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, so severe that she had to lie back down.
"Are you so excited that you want to attack me?" Shen Ningyuan asked with a raised eyebrow.
Cui Mingzhu gritted her teeth, “Chen Ningyuan, you will not have a good ending!”
"Whether I have a good ending or not is not important." Shen Ningyuan shrugged and took a step closer to Cui Mingzhu, "But cousin, the one who has no good ending now is you!"
"Your beloved one cut open the baby in your belly with his own hands, and you almost lost your life. You were thrown at the gate of the general's mansion like a dog. How can your fate be any better?"
"you--"
Cui Mingzhu was extremely angry.
But in her current state, she had no way to deal with Shen Ningyuan.
At this time, Shen Ningyuan's face turned cold, and she asked coldly: "Cui Mingzhu, tell me, who saved you? And who threw you at the gate of the general's mansion?"
Thinking of the masked man she saw in the other courtyard, Shen Ningyuan immediately guessed that it was him who saved Cui Mingzhu.
Perhaps, we can know the identity of the mastermind from Cui Mingzhu's mouth!
Shen Ningyuan looked at Shen Ningyuan more anxiously.
"Why should I tell you?" Cui Mingzhu asked back, "Chen Ningyuan, the more you care, the less I will tell you!"
"If you don't tell me, then you can die!"
As he spoke, Shen Ningyuan picked up the soft pillow and pressed it against Cui Mingzhu's face again.
“Chen Ningyuan, I know you don’t dare to kill me!” Cui Mingzhu said through gritted teeth.
"You haven't even tried, how can you be sure that I won't kill you?"
Cui Mingzhu said firmly: "Aunt will be back soon, you won't kill me in front of her!"
"Oh? Cui Mingzhu, is this the reason why you are so fearless?"
After asking, Shen Ningyuan pressed hard and covered Cui Mingzhu’s face tightly with a soft pillow.
"But you guessed wrong!" Shen Ningyuan roared viciously: "Compared to you living, the Shen family will be ruined by you forever, I will choose to kill you now!"
"Even if you are kicked out of the Shen family by my mother, you must die!"
Cui Mingzhu struggled hard as Shen Ningyuan covered her face tightly.
But no matter how she struggled, she couldn't push Shen Ningyuan away.
Just like that, Cui Mingzhu, who was already weak, slowly stopped struggling.
"Yuan'er, what are you doing?"
Just at this moment, Cui Jin's voice came from the door.
Seeing Shen Ningyuan covering Cui Mingzhu's face tightly, Cui Jin's face changed instantly, and he rushed over to pull his daughter away.
After pulling Shen Ningyuan away, Cui Jin looked at Cui Mingzhu worriedly, "Zhu'er, are you okay?"
Cui Mingzhu kept coughing, "Ahem, aunt, I'm fine... I don't know what's wrong with my cousin, she actually wanted to attack me."
Cui Jin turned to look at Chen Ningyuan and asked loudly: "Yuan'er, she is your cousin. She finally came back alive. Why did you kill her?"
Being pushed and staggering, Shen Ningyuan looked at Cui Jin in confusion, and suddenly asked: "Mother, have you not seen Cui Mingzhu's true face until now?"
Cui Jin's face paused, her expression even more puzzled than Shen Ningyuan's, "Yuan'er, what do you mean by this?"
"Mom, haven't you noticed that no one in this family likes Cui Mingzhu except you?"
Shen Ningyuan pointed at Cui Mingzhu and continued to question: “Whether it’s my father, my two elder brothers, or my sister-in-law who just married into the Shen family, no one is close to Cui Mingzhu.”
Cui Jin paused for a moment and explained weakly, "That's because Zhu'er is too sensitive and awkward, so she's not liked by everyone."
"Mom, you're still speaking for her!"
Shen Ningyuan was completely anxious.
He shouted angrily: "Mom, what do I have to say so that you can listen to me? Cui Mingzhu is not a good person!"
Before Cui Jin could speak, Cui Mingzhu pulled her hand and said pitifully, "Aunt, what is my cousin talking about? I haven't done anything to let the Shen family down. Why is she saying this to me?"
Cui Jin also frowned and looked at Shen Ningyuan in confusion, "Yes, Yuan'er, tell mother, what did Zhu'er do to let down the Shen family, otherwise why would you say that about her?"
Shen Ningyuan paused, looking at Cui Mingzhu with red eyes, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer this question.
