Shen Ningyuan took a step back in shock.
Cui Jin's expression changed immediately, and she scolded him coldly, "Mother-in-law, what are you doing?"
"Yuan'er is your junior, and as her elder, you're kneeling down to her in public. You're going to shorten her lifespan!"
As Cui Jin said this, she was about to step forward and help Chen up.
But Chen pushed her hand away, knelt and crawled in front of Shen Ningyuan, holding Shen Ningyuan's clothes tightly.
She cried out loudly, "Yuan'er, my good daughter-in-law, I kneel down to you, please give Huan'er a way out!"
Chen's sudden kneeling was something Shen Ningyuan had not expected.
Not only did she not expect this, but Ji Zehai, her husband who had slept with her for decades, was also shocked by her behavior.
"Ms. Chen, what are you going to do?" Ji Zehai scolded in a low voice: "Today is Yunchuan's funeral, don't embarrass yourself!"
Chen refused to listen and continued to kneel before Shen Ningyuan, shouting, "Ningyuan, I don't ask for anything else. I only ask you to give Huan'er a few more days for Yunchuan's sake!"
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan frowned slightly.
Based on her understanding of Chen, Chen would not easily kneel down to her in such an occasion.
Unless, she thought of a more sinister way to plot against herself.
Before anyone could ask, Chen had already stated her request, "Ning Yuan, I know Huan'er has wronged you, but can we discuss whether to send Huan'er away after Yunchuan's seventh day of mourning?"
"You know they have a very good relationship as siblings. At least let Huan'er give Yunchuan a ride!"
After Chen finished speaking, she burst into tears.
Shen Ningyuan's brows furrowed even tighter.
Wait until the seventh day after Ji Yunchuan's death, and then send Ji Yunhuan away.
This request is not excessive.
If she didn't agree, she would appear stingy.
But if you agree, who knows what tricks they will play behind your back.
"Okay, we agree to your request."
Before Shen Ningyuan could think it over, her mother had already agreed to this request on her behalf.
Shen Ningyuan was startled and looked at Cui Jin in surprise, "Mother, you..."
Cui Jin patted her hand soothingly and whispered, "Yuan'er, don't worry, mother has a plan."
After saying that, Cui Jin looked at Chen and said, "Mother-in-law, we agree to your request. You can get up first!"
"So many people are watching here, how do you want them to view Yuan'er?" Cui Jin added.
This matter concerns Shen Ningyuan's reputation, so she has to take it seriously.
If what happened today were to be spread by someone with ulterior motives, I'm afraid everyone would say that Shen Ningyuan was a wicked woman who bullied her mother-in-law.
Thinking of this, Cui Jin walked forward and helped Chen up.
Chen was still crying, "If Yunchuan hadn't passed away so suddenly, things wouldn't have gotten to this point. It's our Ji family that's wronged Ning Yuan, letting her lose her husband at such a young age..."
Cui Jin frowned slightly and turned to look at Shen Ningyuan.
Seeing that she didn't react, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, looking at Chen, he coldly warned: "This is Yuan'er's fate. She has accepted it. Don't mention it in the future."
Only then did Chen shut her mouth and stopped talking casually.
At this time, Ji Zehai looked at Shen Ningyuan and said in a deep voice: "Daughter-in-law, it's settled then. After Yunchuan's first seven days are over, we will immediately send Huan'er to the temple and will never let her affect your life again."
Cui Jin immediately responded, "Of course Ji Yunhuan can stay at the Ji family. Let alone until the seventh day, even if it's until the seventh day, we have no objection."
Upon hearing this, Chen's eyes lit up instantly.
I couldn't wait to ask, "Really? Can Huan'er stay until Qiqi?"
Cui Jin rolled her eyes and said, "Of course, we have no objection to sending Ji Yunhuan away whenever you want, but we have to bring Yuan'er back to the Shen family today."
"What?" Chen's eyes widened. "You want to take Ning Yuan back to the Shen family?"
"Why? Is it not possible?" Cui Jin looked at Chen calmly, "My daughter was almost poisoned to death by Ji Yunhuan. Do you think we would be at ease to let her live with Ji Yunhuan again in the Ji family?"
Cui Jin snorted coldly and said firmly, "What's more, Yuan'er has been frightened today. No matter what, we must take Yuan'er away today!"
“That’s right!” Shen Potian immediately responded, “My daughter cannot be bullied by your Ji family!”
Seeing their tough attitude, Chen didn't dare to say anything and just turned her gaze to Ji Zehai.
Ji Zehai gritted his teeth secretly and looked back and forth between Shen Potian and Cui Jin.
Just as he opened his mouth to persuade the two to change their minds, a servant from the Ji Mansion hurried over.
He leaned close to Ji Zehai's ear and said something quickly.
After hearing this, Ji Zehai's face changed instantly.
"Are you serious?" Ji Zehai grabbed the boy's collar and asked in disbelief.
The servant had a bitter face and nodded repeatedly, "Master, how dare I say such things? The eldest son of the Shen family is really with his troops, wandering outside the Ji Mansion, but not too close, probably only a hundred meters away..."
Ji Zehai took a deep breath and looked at Shen Potian and Cui Jin. He was angry but dared not say anything.
Finally, he could only grit his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Okay, let my daughter-in-law go back to her parents' home to rest for two days!"
He didn't say anything too decisive, just said to go back and rest for two days.
I'll find a chance later and bring Shen Ningyuan back.
"Master, why did you agree so easily?"
Chen's expression changed and she looked at Ji Zehai in disbelief.
Seeing that Ji Zehai didn't say anything, Chen hurried over and grabbed Ji Zehai's sleeve.
