Chapter 58 The Abacus is clacking



Following Shen Haoyue's order, the team started moving again, heading towards the Ji family in a mighty manner.

Ji Zehai and Chen, covered in dust, got into the carriage amidst the pointing and talking eyes of the crowd.

When Ji Zehai left the Shen family, he was riding a horse.

But after what happened just now, he didn't dare show up in public again and could only squeeze into a carriage with Chen.

When she got on the carriage, Chen glared at Shen Ningyuan’s carriage viciously.

This bitch made them suffer such humiliation!

When we get back to the Ji family, let’s see how she deals with her!

She will let Shen Ningyuan know who has the final say in the Ji family!

The carriage wobbled and soon arrived at the gate of the Ji family.

After a few days, the Ji family was still in mourning, with white silk hanging everywhere inside and outside the house.

Looking at all this, Shen Ningyuan suddenly remembered that in two days it would be the seventh day after Ji Yunchuan's death.

She wanted to see what kind of funeral the Ji family could hold without her dowry!

Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan slowly got off the carriage with the help of Luying.

At this time, Shen Haoyue also turned over and dismounted, coming to Shen Ningyuan's side.

"Sister, I'll take you here, but you'll have to walk the rest of the way on your own."

As he spoke, Shen Haoyue glanced at the Ji family's door plaque and said with gritted teeth: "One day, I will definitely smash this door plaque!"

Shen Ningyuan tilted his head to look at Shen Haoyue's profile and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, second brother, this day will come soon, and I won't let you wait too long."

Shen Haoyue nodded, retracted his gaze, and lowered his voice again, "Don't worry, sister, father has already made arrangements. There will be two secret guards by your side to protect your safety at any time."

Before Shen Ningyuan could respond, Shen Haoyue continued, "However, it's easier to dodge an open attack than to defend against a hidden one. Even with the protection of secret guards, you still have to be careful and don't let the Ji family take advantage of you."

"Okay, I understand, second brother." Shen Ningyuan nodded in response.

While the brother and sister were still talking, Ji Zehai and Chen also got off the carriage at this time.

Ji Zehai walked towards the two of them with a smile on his face, looked at Shen Haoyue and said, "Don't worry, nephew, we will take good care of our daughter-in-law when she returns to the Ji family."

Ji Zehai deliberately emphasized the word "take care of", and stared at Shen Ningyuan viciously with a pair of gloomy eyes.

Chen also took the opportunity to say, "That's right. After my nephew returns, please let my father-in-law and mother-in-law rest assured. From now on, our Ji family will still be under the final say of my daughter-in-law. She will always be the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion. All family affairs will be decided by her. I should let my daughter-in-law take over the Ji family."

As she spoke, Chen looked at Shen Ningyuan, smiling so much that wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes, "Don't you agree, daughter-in-law?"

After hearing this, the smile in Shen Ningyuan's eyes became very playful.

She looked up at Chen's calculating eyes, and her smile deepened.

This is not about asking her to take over the Ji family, it is clearly about asking her to use her dowry to subsidize the Ji family.

Once she takes over the Ji family, she will spend her own money to hold a decent banquet for Ji Yunchuan's funeral.

The sound of the abacus beads was deafening.

This mother-in-law, doesn't she really think that she is so smart that she and her second brother can't see through her little thoughts, right?

Sure enough, before Shen Ningyuan could speak, Shen Haoyue rejected Chen's offer.

"Mrs. Ji, I think this is inappropriate."

Shen Haoyue did not refute, "My sister has just experienced the pain of losing her husband, and her body and mind have not yet recovered. I am afraid that she will not be able to bear the trouble of managing the Ji family."

"What's more, worrying is bound to lead to mistakes. I'm afraid my sister will make mistakes in her busy schedule and bring shame to the Ji family." Shen Haoyue said, deliberately emphasizing the tone, "So you should take charge of the household affairs yourself."

"What?" Chen was stunned. "Let me do it?"

"That's right!" Shen Haoyue said seriously, "I've heard from my sister before that Madam Ji has the final say on all matters big or small in the Ji family, so I think it's better for you to take charge of the Ji family!"

This series of words left Chen unable to refute.

When she came to her senses and wanted to say something.

Shen Haoyue had already turned to look at Shen Ningyuan, and said in a serious tone: "Sister, look how much your mother-in-law cares about you, you must be more filial to her in the future!"

Shen Ningyuan pursed her lips and smiled, looking at Chen Shi with a touch of emotion, "Mother-in-law is so considerate of her daughter-in-law, I will definitely be filial to her in the future!"

Chen: “…”

The brother and sister sang in unison, leaving Chen speechless.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.

When Ji Zehai saw her like this, he glared at her fiercely, looking as if he was disappointed in her.

In this way, the "heavy burden" of managing the Ji family's food supply finally fell on Chen.

She looked at Shen Ningyuan, who had a smile on her face and lowered her head in silence, and felt as disgusted as if she had eaten a fly.

She was also thinking about asking Shen Ningyuan to take the initiative to pay for a decent funeral for Ji Yunchuan!

Unexpectedly, they didn't suffer any loss at all!

Now, with the little money the Ji family has, there will be nothing left after the funeral!

Thinking of draining her family's wealth, Chen felt so painful that she glared at Shen Ningyuan fiercely.

This black-hearted bitch wasn't even willing to pay a penny more for her husband's funeral!

I am really unworthy of being a wife!

At this moment, Shen Ningyuan suddenly raised her head and looked in the direction of Chen.

This glance happened to meet Chen's gloomy gaze.

Chen was stunned. She didn't expect that she would be caught on the spot by Shen Ningyuan just by glaring at him.
