"gold?"
Chen was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly.
She asked sharply, "Where did you get so much money?"
"This money is mine, so there's no need for you to ask, mother."
Chen's expression changed, and she scolded him coldly, "You are from the Ji family, and your money belongs to the Ji family. As the mistress of the family, am I not allowed to interfere?"
"But mother, I am now the Marquis of Anding, and everything in the Ji family belongs to me."
Ji Yunnuo's tone was calm and relaxed.
But the more nonchalant the tone, the angrier Chen became.
"You, you, you...you are so outrageous!" Chen pointed at Ji Yunnuo, "Your father is still alive, how can you be called Marquis of Anding?"
Ji Yunnuo smiled and asked, "Mother, father behaved disrespectfully in front of the palace. His Majesty has already given up on him. Haven't you seen that?"
"How could Your Majesty abandon your father?"
Chen didn't believe it at all.
Ji Yunnuo sneered, "Your Majesty hasn't released my father yet, and he's even given me the title of Marquis. Isn't that obvious enough?"
But even after hearing this, Chen still refused to believe it.
Seeing her like this, Ji Yunnuo's face showed a hint of coldness, and he said in a cold voice: "Mother, the matter is a foregone conclusion, just accept it!"
After saying that, Ji Yunnuo no longer cared about Chen's expression, turned to look at Shen Ningyuan, smiled and nodded to her.
Although he didn't say anything, his eyes revealed a lot of information.
Seeing this scene, Chen finally reacted.
He looked at Shen Ningyuan, then at Ji Yunnuo, "You..."
Chen shouted, "You have been colluding with each other for a long time!"
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan and Ji Yunnuo looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.
Chen was instantly out of breath and pointed at the two of them and said, "You, you...why are you plotting against the Ji family like this?"
Ji Yunnuo raised his eyebrows and asked, "Mother, I am also a member of the Ji family. Isn't it natural for me to inherit the title of the Ji family?"
After finishing speaking, Ji Yunnuo looked at Ji Nian and asked in a playful tone, "Patriarch, is this the truth?"
Ji Nian rolled his eyes a few times, knowing the current situation, he absolutely could not offend Ji Yunnuo.
What's more, Ji Yunnuo could easily spend a hundred taels of gold.
Compared to Chen, who gave him a hundred taels and still made a fuss, Ji Yunnuo was the person he should curry favor with.
Thinking of this, Ji Nian immediately nodded and said, "Yun Nuo is right. You are a member of the Ji family. It is reasonable for you to inherit the title of the Ji family."
"Chief! How can you turn against outsiders?"
Chen's face turned ugly again.
Hearing this, Ji Nian snorted coldly and said very rudely: "What are you saying? His surname is Ji, and your surname is Chen. Who is the outsider?"
Amidst Chen's unpleasant expression, Ji Nian looked at Ji Yunnuo in a flattering manner, "Yunnuo, don't you think this is the truth? We are family."
"The Patriarch is right."
Ji Yunnuo nodded calmly, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
Even so, Ji Nian was still very happy, and his eyes were filled with excitement as he looked at Ji Yunnuo.
At this moment, Chen completely realized the reality and glared at Shen Ningyuan with a sinister look on her face.
"Bitch! You clearly promised me that as long as I accepted 500,000 taels, you would keep the Ji family's title. How could you lie to me?"
As she spoke, Chen rushed towards Shen Ningyuan, raised her hand high, and pretended to slap her in the face.
"Sister-in-law, be careful!" Ji Yunnuo shouted worriedly.
But before the slap could land, Chen was grabbed by Shen Ningyuan's wrist.
"Bitch, you're so wicked, and you still dare to fight back?" Chen was so angry that she cursed: "I must kill you today, you bitch!"
There was a cold smile on Shen Ningyuan's face.
"Madam Ji, that's not what you said!" Shen Ningyuan's eyes were cold. "First, the five hundred thousand taels originally belonged to me. It was the dowry owed to me by the Ji family. I have a clear conscience about taking the five hundred thousand taels."
"Secondly, I swore to heaven that I would protect the Ji family's title. Doesn't this title still belong to the Ji family now?"
As he spoke, Shen Ningyuan looked at Ji Yunnuo, his tone becoming more playful.
"Madam Ji, you can't deny Ji Yunnuo's identity as a member of the Ji family just because he is a concubine's son, right?"
“You, you, you…”
Chen was speechless again and was so angry that she couldn't breathe.
It took me a long time to finally find my voice.
"Bitch, you're playing tricks on me!"
After a scream, Chen finally realized the reality. She was really fooled by Shen Ningyuan.
Shen Ningyuan snorted coldly and shrugged provocatively.
It seems to be saying: I'm just kidding you, so what?
Chen was so angry that she pointed at Shen Ningyuan's nose and couldn't utter a word for a long time.
“Chen Ningyuan, you bitch, I won’t let you go!”
After yelling this, Chen could no longer bear the anger in her heart. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
"lady!"
Nanny Hai's face changed and she quickly ran towards Chen and helped her up.
"Madam, please wake up quickly, don't scare me!"
Ji Yunnuo ordered in a deep voice: "Hurry up and help the lady back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of servants came running over and hurriedly helped Chen back.
