"Chen Ningyuan, get out here!"
As soon as Shen Ningyuan sat up straight, Chen's angry roar came from outside.
Looking up, Chen and a group of Ji family servants blocked the gate of Yushang Pavilion.
Seeing this scene, Shen Ningyuan did not show any fear on his face.
She stood up and bowed to Chen, "Ning Yuan greets mother-in-law."
Chen pointed at Shen Ningyuan and said angrily: “I am not your mother-in-law, the Ji family does not recognize you as their daughter-in-law!”
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan paused for a moment and then bowed respectfully.
"Then... Ning Yuan meets Madam Ji."
"you!"
Chen was extremely angry and pointed at Shen Ningyuan with a trembling body, "Shen Ningyuan, you bitch, you really exposed your thoughts!"
Chen became more and more angry, "You have long since stopped wanting to recognize me as your mother-in-law and to be the daughter-in-law of the Ji family!"
Shen Ningyuan raised her eyebrows, stood up straight, and said in a cold voice: "Madam Ji, what are you talking about? When I first saw you, I bowed to you respectfully at the first moment. It was you who kept saying that I was not your daughter-in-law and that the Ji family did not recognize me as their daughter-in-law, so I changed my words temporarily."
Shen Ningyuan added with a smile: "I have always been respectful to Madam Ji, so naturally I have to listen to you."
"You, you, you..." Chen was extremely angry. "You are so sharp-tongued and disrespectful to your mother-in-law. I really should send you to the government and let the officials pull out your tongue!"
After hearing this, Shen Ningyuan's face darkened, but he did not respond.
Song Yan'er couldn't stand it any longer and rushed out to block Shen Ningyuan. "I'm here today. I want to see who dares to pull out Yuan'er's tongue!"
"Who do you think you are? How dare you meddle in our Ji family's affairs!" Ji Yunhuan glared at Song Yan'er and asked sharply.
Song Yan'er also responded bluntly: "I am Yuan'er's sister-in-law. If you want to bully her, ask me first!"
"So what if she is Shen Ningyuan's sister-in-law? She is already married and is no longer a member of the Shen family. What does it have to do with you?" Ji Yunhuan put his hands on his hips, looking extremely arrogant.
Seeing her like this, Song Yaner was so angry that her heartbeat accelerated. After taking a deep breath, she spat out two words fiercely, "Wrong logic!"
"Whether it's a fallacy or not, you know it in your heart!"
Seeing that Song Yan'er couldn't find any words to refute, Ji Yunhuan became even more arrogant, pointing at Shen Ningyuan behind her and shouting: "Shen Ningyuan disrespected her late husband, so her tongue should be pulled out!"
Chen also jumped out and angrily accused, "That's right! Chen Ningyuan, my son's body is still warm, and you're already making a big fuss to buy new clothes and dress yourself up. Who are you showing off to? What? Have you found a new owner so quickly?"
Chen pointed at Shen Ningyuan fiercely, her face ferocious, "We really should let the people outside see what a shameless daughter the Shen family has raised!"
"Pooh!"
Chen spat.
Seeing her spitting, Song Yaner took a step back in disgust.
She thought to herself, "She's the wife of a marquis, after all, so how can she act so rudely? Yuan'er is so young, how can she possibly get away with anything in her hands? No wonder Yuan'er's temperament changed so drastically after returning from the Ji family. Even the best-tempered person will be turned into a shrew by a mother-in-law like this... Oh, Yuan'er is suffering!"
Thinking of this, Song Yaner couldn’t help but reached out and squeezed Shen Ningyuan’s hand.
She said gently, "Don't be afraid, Yuan'er. With my sister-in-law here, they won't dare bully you!"
Seeing Song Yan'er standing firmly in front of her, Shen Ningyuan felt a warm feeling in her heart.
However, she shook Song Yaner's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I know what to do."
As she spoke, Shen Ningyuan walked out from behind Song Yaner, looked at Ji Yunhuan, and asked coldly: "If I remember correctly, my sister-in-law should be kneeling in the Ji family's ancestral hall at this time, praying for me and your eldest brother who died young. Why is she here?"
“I…” Ji Yunhuan was too guilty to look directly at Shen Ningyuan, but after a while, he still said with a stiff upper lip: “How can I be at ease and let my mother come out to find you alone? Of course I have to accompany my mother. What if my mother is bullied by you?”
"Bullying?" Shen Ningyuan suddenly sneered, "Sister-in-law, what you said is totally unreasonable. This time when I went out, I only brought two maids, a coachman, and four servants, less than ten people in total, while you brought dozens of servants. Who is bullying who?"
"You!" Ji Yunhuan was speechless again, pursed her lips and glared at Shen Ningyuan.
How could she not know that Shen Ningyuan was so sharp-tongued?
This bitch!
All the gentleness and virtue in the Ji family this year were just pretense!
"Yuan'er, don't waste your time talking to them. Even if they bring so many people with them, my Shen family is not to be trifled with! If they dare to do anything to you, I will be the first one to be rude to them!" Song Yan'er emphasized.
She finally figured it out.
Chen and Ji Yunhuan are here just to cause trouble!
"Are you still being reasonable?" Chen pointed at Shen Ningyuan. "It was this bastard who came out to buy new clothes when my son's body was still warm. He doesn't even take my son and the Ji family seriously. Is it not possible for us to ask for an explanation?"
"Look at the rumors out there, how ugly they are!" Chen said, then turned and walked to the gate. She wailed loudly to the people outside, "Oh my! Our Ji family is truly unfortunate. How could we marry a daughter-in-law like this?"
"My son Yunchuan, if he knew his wife was so reckless, I'm afraid the lid of his coffin would burst!"
"You must testify for us. It was that bastard Shen Ningyuan who bullied us by relying on his family background!"
"Oh, my poor son, if you are still alive, please come back and see this wonderful wife you worked so hard to marry!"
“Wuwuwu…”
After Chen finished her accusation, she began to cry uncontrollably, and her sobs became louder and louder.
Shen Ningyuan stood behind her, watching Chen pretending to wail quietly, without a trace of emotion on her face.
Indeed, what Chen said is absolutely right.
Ji Yunchuan really put a lot of thought into marrying her!
The people who did not know the truth also began to attack Shen Ningyuan after hearing Chen's words.
"How shameless! She's showing up in public even before her husband's body is cold, and she's even dressed up like a stunner. She must have already found a new husband!"
"Mrs. Ji's son just died, and Shen Ningyuan bullied her like this. It's simply too much!"
"Poor Ji family's eldest son, he died on the battlefield at such a young age, and even got cuckolded after his death. What bad luck he has!"
"Yes, yes, it's indeed too much. How can this be done?"
The people followed Chen's words and scolded Shen Ningyuan bitterly.
Among this group of people, there was a man wearing a cloak with his face covered tightly. He was inconspicuous in the crowd. After hearing what the people said, he couldn't help but clench his fists and trembled slightly with anger.
After looking at Shen Ningyuan deeply, the man took a deep breath.
While pulling down the brim of his hat, he also forced down the depression in his heart.
