After asking, Shen Potian still couldn’t figure it out, so he asked again: “A lot?”
Shen Ningyuan: "..."
Fifty-one thousand taels is not a lot, so what is a lot?
Then, Shen Potian continued, “The pair of night-shining pearls your mother bought casually are only worth 500,000 taels. Why did they faint from heartache just because they wrote an IOU for 500,000 taels?”
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan couldn't help but said, "Okay, Dad, don't say anymore."
Shen Potian gave up at this point and didn’t continue talking.
"Sister, after what happened today, you and the Ji family have completely broken off relations. Do you still want to stay in the Ji family?"
Shen Haobai hinted at something.
Shen Ningyuan understood the hidden meaning of his words.
She nodded immediately and said, "Ji Yunchuan and I are already married, and I am now the daughter-in-law of the Ji family."
"Unless the Ji family is extinct, I won't go anywhere."
Shen Ningyuan said this last sentence with a hint of coldness.
Shen Haobai understood what she meant and nodded firmly. "Since my sister has made up her mind, I won't try to persuade you anymore. No matter what happens, just remember that you will always be a member of the Shen family, and the Shen family will always stand behind you."
"Brother, I know."
After Shen Ningyuan responded, he looked at Shen Potian again: "Dad, I will send you out. Don't stay in the Ji family for too long, so as not to be contaminated by bad luck."
Just like that, Shen Ningyuan sent his father and brother out the door.
After they walked away, Shen Ningyuan turned around and went back to Xiyuanju.
As soon as I walked into the courtyard, I saw Lan Yin and Lu Ying excitedly checking the dowry sent by Chen.
Lambert stood aside, counting the items one by one with the account book.
After seeing Shen Ningyuan enter the room, Lan Bo walked towards Shen Ningyuan with the account book.
He said, "Miss, the dowry has been almost counted. In front of the old general and the deputy general, Chen dared not act recklessly and returned all the dowry."
Shen Ningyuan nodded and whispered, “Okay, send all these things back to the general’s mansion tonight.”
As soon as the words fell, the three of them looked at Shen Ningyuan in shock at the same time.
Lu Ying couldn't help but ask, "Miss, these are your dowry. Are you sure you want to send them back to the General's Mansion?"
"Don't ask too many questions about my arrangements, just follow them." Shen Ningyuan said indifferently.
"……good."
Seeing Shen Ningyuan's insistence, the three of them stopped asking questions.
At this time, Yi Ge walked in from outside.
Seeing the yard full of dowry boxes, there was no expression on his face.
"What's going on in the main courtyard?" Shen Ningyuan asked.
Yi Ge replied: "Miss, Ji Zehai and Chen are still in a coma and won't wake up for a while."
"In that case, let's take advantage of the chaos in the Marquis' Mansion tonight and send all these things back to the Shen family. They will understand what I mean."
"good."
Yi Ge nodded and made arrangements immediately.
Without even a hint of surprise, he just did it.
Then, Shen Ningyuan thought of something, looked at Lan Bo and instructed: "By the way, Lan Bo, after the funeral, some outside shops will come to the Marquis' Mansion to settle the balance. You don't have to pay a penny. Let them go to Chen."
"Yes, miss."
Afterwards, Shen Ningyuan turned around and went back to her room.
After a tiring day, she should have a good rest.
-
At night, Shen Ningyuan was sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt someone was staring at her.
This feeling of uneasiness made Shen Ningyuan suddenly open his eyes.
"woke up?"
A clear voice sounded beside the bed.
Shen Ningyuan's pupils shrank, and she immediately sat up from the bed, pulling the quilt inward.
He asked coldly, "Xie Wanzhou, what are you going to do?"
Xie Wanzhou paused, his face darkening: "Chen Ningyuan, why are you so nervous when you see me? Will I eat you?"
"You won't eat people, but you will eat the Shen family!" Shen Ningyuan gritted his teeth and roared.
"I...will eat up the Shen family?" Xie Wanzhou was stunned. "Chen Ningyuan, do you know what you are saying?"
Shen Ningyuan glared at Xie Wanzhou fiercely: "Of course I know!"
Hearing this, Xie Wanzhou couldn't help but frown, "Do you have any misunderstandings about me?"
"Misunderstanding?" Shen Ningyuan exploded instantly.
He immediately threw back the quilt and jumped out of bed.
He rushed to the dressing table, took out the jade pendant from the secret compartment, turned around and threw it at Xie Wanzhou.
Xie Wanzhou didn't expect that Shen Ningyuan would suddenly do this.
Seeing the jade pendant flying towards him, Xie Wanzhou suddenly became very nervous and quickly reached out to grab the jade pendant.
"Chen Ningyuan, what are you doing!" Xie Wanzhou's face also turned a little colder.
"Xie Wanzhou, what are you pretending to be?" Shen Ningyuan was even angrier than before. "You sent this jade pendant here just to provoke me, didn't you? You've already done it, so why are you still pretending to be confused with me?"
"Provoke you?" Xie Wanzhou's face was dark. "Chen Ningyuan, why am I provoking you? I gave you this jade pendant because—"
Help you.
Before Xie Wanzhou could finish, he was interrupted by Shen Ningyuan: "Why? Isn't it just to test my bottom line and stimulate me with this jade pendant?"
"Xie Wanzhou, you did it. I'm really inspired by you. What else do you want?"
Seeing Shen Ningyuan like this, Xie Wanzhou also became angry.
"Chen Ningyuan, I don't even know what you're talking about!"
"Then why are you breaking into my room so late?" Shen Ningyuan asked coldly.
"There's a misunderstanding between you and me." Xie Wanzhou said sullenly.
Shen Ningyuan frowned: "What misunderstanding?"
