Chapter 113: Burial and Sealing the Coffin
Chen's words made Shen Ningyuan speechless again.
Looking at Ji Yunhuan's pale body, Shen Ningyuan felt a trace of sadness in his heart.
Logically, as an unmarried daughter, Ji Yunhuan could not be buried in the Ji family's ancestral tomb.
Especially someone like her who died a violent death.
But she happened to die before Ji Yunchuan was buried.
According to current statements, Ji Yunchuan took a fancy to Ji Yunhuan's younger sister and took her away.
Therefore, Ji Yunhuan can not only be buried in the Ji family's ancestral tomb, but also be buried with Ji Yunchuan.
But in Chen's view, this became a great gift!
For a moment, Shen Ningyuan didn't know what to say.
Being the daughter of the Ji family, is it a blessing or a curse for Ji Yunhuan?
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan restrained his expression and looked away.
After all, looking at a corpse for too long is bound to bring bad luck.
But when I turned my head, I was suddenly met with a pair of scrutinizing eyes.
Shen Ningyuan was stunned immediately. It turned out to be Ji Yunnuo.
She was so busy today that she forgot about this person.
Thinking about the two previous quick meetings, Ji Yunnuo really wanted to cooperate with him.
Forget it, I'll have a good talk with him after the funeral.
Shen Ningyuan thought.
If the tragic destruction of the Shen family in the previous life was really planned by Xie Wanzhou behind the scenes.
Then she must seize the time and drag the Ji family into the water as soon as possible.
Since Ji Yunnuo said he had evidence, she would believe him for once!
After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Ji Yunnuo is exactly this person.
"The three souls are gone and buried!"
Just as Shen Ningyuan was lost in thought, the Taoist's high-pitched voice rang out again, pulling her out of her thoughts.
When he came to his senses, he saw that the coffins of Ji Yunchuan and Ji Yunhuan had been carefully placed into the tomb by a dozen strong men.
With a "bang", the two coffins fell steadily to the ground.
The Taoist priest stood beside the tomb, continuing to wave his dustpan and perform rituals.
Shen Ningyuan stood in the crowd, and like everyone else, she grabbed a handful of soil and threw it on the coffins of Ji Yunchuan and Ji Yunhuan.
All the relatives of the Ji family turned their backs and waited quietly for the Taoist priest to seal the coffin.
At this time, two masked men in black were standing on the hillside not far away, watching the scene quietly.
“Xie Wanzhou, you know what, that young widow is quite interesting. She clearly saw Ji Yunchuan just now, but she pretended not to see him and even made such a scene, deliberately messing with Ji Yunchuan’s mentality. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, quite interesting!”
Luo Ziyuan put his elbow on Xie Wanzhou's shoulder and said with a click of the tongue.
After hearing this, Xie Wanzhou shook his shoulders and shook off Luo Ziyuan's arm.
She asked unhappily, "Since you knew Ji Yunchuan was still alive, why did you still call her the little widow?"
"Hey, Ji Yunchuan doesn't care, but you still care about it?" Luo Ziyuan rolled his eyes at Xie Wanzhou, "Xie Wanzhou, you still dare to say that you are not interested in the young widow?"
"you--"
Xie Wanzhou wanted to refute.
But when he met Luo Ziyuan's mischievous eyes, he couldn't even utter a word of rebuttal.
"Forget it. I don't want to argue with you. Whatever you say is what it is!"
After saying that, Xie Wanzhou retracted his gaze and continued to stare at the funeral procession.
As time passed, Luo Ziyuan frowned and asked in confusion: "Why hasn't Xie Yumin made a move yet?"
"I don't know either, but what is certain is that he will take action today." Xie Wanzhou shook his head.
Hearing this, Luo Ziyuan frowned even more tightly, and said faintly: "I don't know what Xie Yumin has become after not seeing him for a few years."
"No matter what he becomes, the final result is just one word - death." Xie Wanzhou said coldly.
Luo Ziyuan glanced at him but said nothing.
Then, he set his sights on Shen Ningyuan.
Find an opportunity to meet this young widow.
Luo Ziyuan thought.
At this point, with the coffin lid closed, the funeral procession was considered over.
Chen Ningyuan turned around, took one last look at the two coffins in the cemetery, turned around, and with the help of Lan Yin, was about to get on the carriage back to the Marquis' Mansion.
You are not allowed to ride in a carriage during a funeral.
But you can sit on the way back.
Seeing that Shen Ningyuan was about to get on the carriage, Chen couldn't hold back and walked towards her.
After approaching, Chen asked in a cold voice that only the two of them could hear: “Chen Ningyuan, you are very happy to see Huan’er buried, right?”
Shen Ningyuan stopped getting in the car, turned around and looked at Chen, smiling happily.
"I am indeed happy." Shen Ningyuan said, "But to be honest, I would be happier if I could see my mother-in-law buried."
Chen's expression changed instantly, and she glared at Shen Ningyuan fiercely.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "You black-hearted man, aren't you afraid that Huan'er will come to you to avenge your life when you dream of midnight?"
Shen Ningyuan smiled and shook her head, and said slowly: "I'm not afraid. After all, even an executioner like my mother-in-law dared to kneel in front of Ji Yunhuan's coffin and prayed that she would bless you with peace and longevity and become a noble lady in the capital. What should I be afraid of?"
Chen's pupils shrank, and she looked at Shen Ningyuan in panic, trembling, "You, you, you...you heard everything?"
Shen Ningyuan did not answer, but said coldly: "When the mother-in-law prayed, she was so pious that it seemed like she was worshiping a Buddha. My sister-in-law is in heaven, so she should bless the mother-in-law, right?"
Shen Ningyuan leaned close to Chen's ear and said coldly in the face of Chen's panic, "I just don't know if mother-in-law has the blessing to accept the protection of her sister-in-law!"
"You bitch—"
Chen got anxious and wanted to curse.
But when Shen Ningyuan raised her eyebrows, Chen didn't dare to scold anymore and shut her mouth angrily.
Shen Ningyuan didn't care about her reaction and got into the carriage.
Then, Shen Ningyuan opened the curtain and looked at Chen with a smile, "Mother-in-law, your daughter-in-law will leave first!"
"you--"
Chen was furious, but couldn't bring herself to curse.
He could only watch helplessly as Shen Ningyuan's carriage drove away, feeling hatred and fear in his heart.
He wished he could snatch all of Shen Ningyuan's dowry and cut her into pieces.
He was also afraid that she would use evidence against him to spread the news of his affair.
In the end, Chen could only stamp her feet in anger.
With the help of her maid, she walked towards her carriage.
…
Not far away, Shen Haobai looked at Chen and said angrily: “Father, that old witch is looking for trouble with my sister again!”
“I saw it.” Shen Potian looked displeased, “She dared to cause trouble for Yuan’er even when we were there. I’m afraid that your sister has suffered more in the Ji family over the past year than we imagined!”
Shen Potian clenched his fists and said in a muffled voice: “If it weren’t for the emperor watching, I would definitely take Yuan’er back to the Shen family. I would rather she remain single for life than see her suffer in the Ji family!”
Seeing Shen Potian like this, Shen Haobai felt very uncomfortable, so he persuaded: “Father is carrying the mission of the survival of the border, and my sister...will understand father!”
But what I was thinking in my heart was: I’m sorry, father. My sister won’t let us tell the truth, so we can only hide it from you and mother for now!
Shen Potian nodded and was about to climb onto the horse.
But he suddenly thought of something, stopped and asked, "By the way, where is Cui Mingzhu? Have you found her?"
Hearing this, Shen Haobai’s heart tightened.
