"Whether mother-in-law really doesn't know or is pretending not to know, you know it better than anyone else." Shen Ningyuan said in a cold tone.
Even so, Chen was still stubborn, "Produce evidence to prove that what you said is true."
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan smiled again.
She said, "Mother-in-law, what's the point of me producing evidence? What you need to do now is to convince your partner that you and Uncle Chen are truly brother and sister."
After she finished speaking, Chen's expression became even uglier than before.
He immediately asked, “Chen Ningyuan, where did you hear these things?”
"My mother-in-law cried very loudly in her own yard last night. Many people heard it, didn't they?" Shen Ningyuan said softly.
Once these words were spoken, Chen was unable to refute them.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Shen Ningyuan continued: "Mother-in-law came to me today just to find out if I have any evidence of your affair with Uncle Chen. You are afraid that I will give the evidence to Ji Zehai and affect your relationship as husband and wife."
Shen Ningyuan continued, "Not only that, I also know that Ji Zehai has some suspicions about the relationship between you and Uncle Chen, but he has no evidence."
After hearing these words, Chen was completely confused.
Gritting his teeth, he asked, "So, do you have any evidence?"
"Yes!" Shen Ningyuan said loudly.
She was pretending.
Actually she didn't.
Chen believed it, and immediately panicked, and shouted coldly: "Bring out the evidence!"
"Why?" Shen Ningyuan asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I am your mother-in-law!" Chen put on the airs of an elder again.
Shen Ningyuan smiled nonchalantly, "What's wrong with my mother-in-law? She's having an affair, which is against morality and ethics! She will be despised by the people! She will be thrown into the pig cage!"
"you--"
Chen was speechless after hearing Shen Ningyuan's light words.
After a moment, Chen took a deep breath and asked through gritted teeth, "Tell me, what do you want?"
"I want to make a deal with my mother-in-law." Shen Ningyuan got straight to the point.
"You want to make a deal with me?" Chen's pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes were even more surprised than before.
She frowned, looked Shen Ningyuan up and down, and asked, "What deal do you want to make with me?"
Just after she finished speaking, Chen suddenly thought of something and immediately added, "I won't do anything that is detrimental to the Marquis' Mansion!"
“Don’t worry, this matter will not affect the Marquis’ Mansion.” Shen Ningyuan said sincerely.
It will only affect your son.
Shen Ningyuan added in her heart.
Seeing Shen Ningyuan's sincere tone and calm expression, Chen believed it a little.
But he was still worried and immediately said, "Then you swear to heaven that the deal you want to make with me will not have any impact on the Marquis' Mansion!"
"Okay, I swear." Shen Ningyuan raised four fingers, "I, Shen Ningyuan, swear to heaven that the deal I made with my mother-in-law Chen today will not have any impact on the Marquis' Mansion. If I am wrong, I will be struck by lightning!"
After swearing the oath, Shen Ningyuan withdrew her hand, looked at Chen and said, “I have sworn the oath. Do you believe this?”
Chen nodded, "Okay, then tell me, what deal do you want to make with me?"
"It's very simple. On the day of the funeral, all you need to do is take the mourners to the front yard and leave the space in the ancestral hall to me. It will only take an hour. After an hour, I will hand her the evidence of your affair with Uncle Chen."
"Is it that simple?" Chen was a little unconvinced.
Shen Ningyuan nodded, "It's that simple."
Even so, Chen was still unsure and continued to ask, "No other requests?"
Shen Ningyuan shook her head, "No."
"Okay, I promise you." Chen hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed.
The evidence was in Shen Ningyuan's hands, so she had no choice but to agree.
Shen Ningyuan smiled lightly, “Then Ning Yuan is here, thank you mother-in-law!”
Thank you for helping me out and tricking your son.
Seeing Chen Ningyuan smiling so happily, Chen's heart began to beat fast, and she quickly asked, "Chen Ningyuan, what are you going to do in the ancestral hall on the day of the funeral? You're not going to do anything crazy like last time, are you?"
Whenever Chen thought of that time, her eyelids would twitch.
Shen Ningyuan shook her head and said with certainty: "Don't worry, mother-in-law, I won't touch a single brick or tile of the Ji family's ancestral hall."
Hearing this, Chen felt relieved.
He immediately said, "Okay, I will do what I promised you. On the day of the funeral, I will lead the guests to the front yard, and then bring them in an hour later."
"Remember to keep your word. Once you're done, hand over the evidence to me!"
"Okay." Shen Ningyuan agreed.
The deal was done, and Chen didn't want to stay here anymore, so she immediately turned around and left Xiyuanju.
After Chen left, Lu Ying ran in anxiously and asked with concern, "Miss, did the Madam do anything to you?"
"Don't worry, she didn't do anything to me."
Then, Shen Ningyuan asked again: "Is Lan Yin back?"
"I'm back. Sister Lan Yin and her father are waiting outside the yard!" Lu Ying pointed outside.
Shen Ningyuan frowned slightly, "Why don't you come in?"
Lu Ying explained: "Sister Lan Yin said that the young lady's status is special now, so it's better for Lan Bo not to come in casually."
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan felt warm in her heart.
No matter what the situation is, Lan Yin will always consider her carefully from many aspects.
Shen Ningyuan ordered: "Okay, go out and tell Lan Yin to take Lan Bo to the accounting office to wait for me. I will come back after I pack up."
"good."
Luying nodded, turned around and walked out of Xiyuanju.
Shen Ningyuan returned to the room, took the several account books left by Uncle Chen, walked out of Xiyuanju, and headed towards the accounting office.
