Ji Zehai and the Taoist priest's eyes met, Shen Ningyuan saw it clearly and immediately noticed that there was something strange between them.
I thought to myself: Is the Ji family planning something again?
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan's heart sank.
Ji family, is this ever going to end?
But then I thought, Dad and elder brother are here, so there is nothing to worry about.
“Woo—”
Just as Shen Ningyuan was thinking, the Taoist priest hummed softly, bringing her back to reality from her trance.
Looking up, I saw the Taoist priest gently waving his hand, and the dust was blown away.
Immediately afterwards, two Taoist priests walked out steadily from the crowd and sat cross-legged in front of the coffin.
It looks like they are going to start a ritual.
"The living retreat, the relatives kneel!"
The Taoist priest's resonant voice echoed in the ancestral hall.
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of people from the Ji family knelt in unison in front of the coffins of Ji Yunchuan and Ji Yunhuan.
Ji Zehai and several elders of the Ji family knelt in the first place.
Shen Ningyuan knew all these elders and could even clearly say each of their names!
In her previous life, every time her death anniversary came, the Ji family would, under the leadership of these people, hold grand sacrifices and rituals under the chastity archway.
On the one hand, they were afraid that she would turn into a ghost and escape, so they performed a ritual to capture her soul.
On the other hand, it is to remind the world that their Ji family has produced a chaste and heroic woman, and is a truly chaste family.
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan gritted his teeth secretly and suppressed the hatred in his heart.
After glaring at these people, he knelt side by side with Chen.
The moment she leaned over, Chen Ningyuan clearly heard Chen's muttering, "Huan'er, although it was mother who bewitched you to kill Chen Ningyuan, it was you who messed up. You slipped and fell into the lake and drowned. That was your fate, so you can't blame mother. If you have any sympathy or hatred in the afterlife, go find Chen Ningyuan, don't come to me!"
After hearing this, Shen Ningyuan couldn't help but sneered in his heart.
It's really ridiculous!
At this point, it’s bad enough that Chen doesn’t show any apology or sadness, but she is still thinking about this matter!
As a mother of two children, she is shameless to the extreme.
Then, Chen continued to mutter in a low voice: "Huan'er, we are mother and daughter. If you are in heaven, please protect me from being caught by that little bitch Chen Ningyuan. Please protect me and keep me safe and long-lived!"
Shen Ningyuan: "..."
Chen almost said the last sentence silently.
But Shen Ningyuan had excellent hearing and could still hear it clearly, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little complicated.
Having such a selfish mother, it doesn't seem unfair that Ji Yunhuan died at her own hands.
"Open the coffin!"
At this moment, the Taoist priest shouted loudly, and Chen trembled with fear.
Seeing this scene, Shen Ningyuan sneered again.
She couldn't imagine how guilty Chen must have felt to be so frightened that she trembled.
When several big men went to carry the coffin, Shen Ningyuan looked around and found nothing unusual in the crowd.
I couldn't help but wonder, after Ji Yunchuan killed Cui Mingzhu in the villa, didn't he return to the Marquis' Mansion?
After all, not everyone can have the experience of seeing themselves being buried with their own eyes.
When Shen Ningyuan looked around, a pair of vicious and resentful eyes were also staring at Shen Ningyuan.
Just as Shen Ningyuan expected, after Ji Yunchuan left the villa, he returned to the Marquis' Mansion without stopping and hid in the crowd.
Through the gap in the crowd, Ji Yunchuan stared at Shen Ningyuan with a cold expression.
At this moment, the contempt in his eyes had long disappeared.
Become more cautious.
After all, he still underestimated Shen Ningyuan!
After the failed poisoning at the funeral, he should have been more wary of Shen Ningyuan!
If he had planned earlier, Cui Mingzhu wouldn't have been tricked and killed by that disgusting homeless man...
Thinking of that unbearable scene, Ji Yunchuan's anger began to rise again.
He knew very well that Cui Mingzhu was plotted against and it must be related to Shen Ningyuan!
But there was one thing that Ji Yunchuan couldn't figure out.
Why did Chen help Shen Ningyuan, send the crowd away and leave the ancestral hall to Shen Ningyuan?
While Ji Yunchuan was thinking, the crowd began to get restless.
Following the Taoist priest's order, the male members of the Ji family stepped forward in groups of eight and lifted the coffin.
Ji Yunchuan looked at his coffin, which was being lifted up easily, and felt a little weird in his heart.
This scene is strange no matter how you look at it.
As the two coffins were lifted up, a group of people walked out of the ancestral hall in a mighty procession.
Shen Ningyuan slowly moved forward with the funeral procession, with Shen Potian and Shen Haobai following closely behind.
His heart and eyes were filled with Shen Ningyuan, fearing that she would be in a bad mood and do something stupid.
After taking a step, Shen Haobai looked around and suddenly noticed something was wrong.
He quickly turned around and asked Shen Potian, “Dad, have you noticed that Cui Mingzhu is missing?”
Hearing this, Shen Potian frowned instantly and his eyes quickly turned around.
He nodded and replied, "Yeah, it's true that no one can be seen."
Then, Shen Potian asked, “When did she leave?”
Shen Haobai shook his head, "I don't know, it seems that when we were in the front hall, she said she was going to the ancestral hall to accompany her sister, and she has not been seen since then!"
Hearing this, Shen Potian’s face darkened, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes, “You arrange two people to find her, and make sure she is safe.”
"Okay, father." Shen Haobai responded.
Although he knew in his heart what kind of person Cui Mingzhu was.
