Chapter 143: Forcing Her to Move Out
After hearing what Chen said, Chen Moer was so shocked that her face changed immediately: "What, you want me to move out? But I have lived in Fanghua Garden for five years!"
"That's what Chen Ningyuan asked for, there's nothing I can do about it, auntie!" Chen said helplessly.
Chen Moer frowned and said, "Something's wrong. Why would Chen Ningyuan suddenly ask me to move out of Fanghua Garden? It's not like she must have this yard."
"I don't know either. Maybe she just has a crush on Fanghua Garden." Chen pondered.
Chen Moer shook her head and said, "Aunt, this matter is not that simple."
Chen asked, “Does Moer think that Shen Ningyuan has other thoughts?”
Chen Moer nodded, "Everything happens for a reason. I don't believe Shen Ningyuan is really like this. She just took a fancy to this courtyard."
She suspected that Shen Ningyuan was targeting her.
But on second thought, she had been hiding it very well, how could Shen Ningyuan notice her abnormality?
At this time, Chen looked at Chen Mo'er and said tentatively: "Mo'er, how about... Auntie give you a spacious yard?"
Chen Moer was stunned and asked in disbelief: "Aunt, are you really going to make me move out of Fanghua Garden just for that little money?"
Hearing this, Chen avoided Chen Mo'er's eyes and said weakly, "Mo'er, it's not that auntie doesn't consider you, but that amount of money is too much, and the Marquis's Mansion can't afford it at all."
"Before, your uncle was forced by the Shen family to sign an IOU for 500,000 taels. If he were to bear these debts again, the life of the Marquis' Mansion would be unbearable!"
"So, aunt, you want me to move out of Fanghua Garden?"
Chen Moer gritted her teeth and confirmed it again.
Chen nodded, "Mo'er, for the sake of the Marquis' Mansion, you should move out of Fanghua Garden first!"
"Okay, I'll move."
Chen Moer agreed, but the look she gave Chen was one of disappointment.
Chen didn't see the disappointment in her eyes, and said happily: "Mo'er, I know you are the most obedient and sensible. No matter what your aunt asks you to do, you will do it."
"Yeah." Chen Moer said in a light tone.
Chen didn't waste any more time. She patted Chen Mo'er on the shoulder and said, "Mo'er, auntie will leave first. Take some time in the next two days to pack up your things and move to Huan'er's yard!"
Chen Moer was shocked again, "Auntie asked me to move to my cousin's yard?"
Chen asked directly, "What else? That is the only empty courtyard in the Marquis's Mansion."
This matter-of-fact tone made Chen Moer even more disappointed.
After a moment, Chen Moer gritted her teeth and whispered, "Moer, listen to your aunt's arrangements."
"Okay, okay, I'll go back first then!"
Chen patted her shoulder, turned around and hurried away.
Chen Moer watched her walk away, her eyes growing colder by the second.
"You consider everything for this aunt, but she treats you like this. Wouldn't it be sad?"
Chen Moer said without even turning her head: "I'm used to it, so there's nothing to be upset about."
The man walked to Chen Moer's side and snorted coldly: "If I were you, I would kill her directly."
"Your Highness, you don't understand. I have been an orphan since I was a child. My aunt raised me. In the Ji family, I was treated the same as Ji Yunhuan. My aunt and uncle never treated me badly."
"You know how to be grateful!" The man snorted coldly and mocked: "You are an aunt who doesn't even care about the death of your own daughter, not to mention that you are just her niece."
"Xie Yumin!" Chen Moer frowned and immediately ordered him to leave: "You should go back."
Being called by his full name, Xie Yumin's face changed. He raised his hand to lock Chen Moer's neck and asked coldly, "Chen Moer, who gave you the courage to call me by my full name and chase me away?"
Chen Moer frowned and asked, "Your Highness, you know that the person I care about most is my aunt, but you still say such things in front of me. Isn't that too much?"
Xie Yumin stared at Chen Moer's face and asked in surprise: "Are you angry?"
"I am also a human being, can't I be angry?" Chen Moer asked back.
Xie Yumin did not respond and let go of Chen Moer's chin.
"Chen Ningyuan has set her sights on you." Xie Yumin said in a playful tone.
Chen Moer nodded, "To be exact, she was targeting you who was behind me."
Xie Yumin's face changed, "You mean, Shen Ningyuan has guessed that the person we really want to plot against is the Shen family?"
Chen Moer nodded again, “Chen Ningyuan is not a fool. Her abnormal behavior during this period is enough to show that she has noticed something.”
Hearing this, Xie Yumin's smile became more playful, "Things are becoming more and more interesting. If that's the case, then Your Highness should show up in advance."
"Yeah." Chen Moer nodded lightly.
It seems that he is still a little unhappy.
Xie Yumin noticed her strangeness, but suddenly picked up Chen Moer by the waist and strode into the house.
Chen Moer did not resist.
-
Xiyuanju.
Shen Ningyuan didn't expect that Chen Moer would agree to give up Fanghua Garden so easily.
Looking at Chen who was expectant, Shen Ningyuan confirmed again: “Madam Ji, did Chen Moer really agree without any requirements?”
Chen snorted coldly, "Fanghua Garden originally belonged to the Marquis' Mansion. It's not a big deal to ask her to move to another courtyard."
Seeing this, Shen Ningyuan smiled and asked, "As far as I know, the Marquis's Mansion currently does not have a suitable courtyard. Where does Madam Ji plan to let my cousin move to?"
"Of course it's Huan'er's yard." Chen said without hesitation: "Now in the Marquis's Mansion, only Huan'er's Qiushui Garden is vacant."
"What? You want Chen Mo'er to move to Qiushui Garden, where Ji Yunhuan lived before his death?"
Even though Shen Ningyuan was used to the ruthlessness of the Ji family, she never expected that Chen would actually arrange for Chen Moer to live in Qiushuiyuan.
That was the yard where the dead lived.
According to custom, after the owner's death, the yard must be left vacant for a year before new people can move in.
"Mrs. Ji made this request, and cousin Moer agreed?" Shen Ningyuan asked uncertainly.
"Anyway, she has agreed. Fanghua Garden is yours. I don't care whether you want to plant flowers or grass. You just need to tell me when you want to borrow the money."
Chen's tone was very impatient.
"Since Fanghua Garden can be vacated, I will definitely lend the money."
"When?" Chen's eyes lit up.
"Tomorrow, I will go to the bank to get the silver."
"Okay! I hope you get it. I'll send someone to watch you go to the bank to withdraw money tomorrow!"
After finishing speaking, Chen took one last look at Shen Ningyuan and left Xiyuanju impatiently.
Looking at her leaving back, Shen Ningyuan's face was cold.
Lan Yin came to Chen Ningyuan's side and asked in confusion: "Miss, doesn't Chen love my cousin very much? Why would she let her live in the courtyard where Ji Yunhuan lived before his death? Isn't she afraid that Ji Yunhuan's ghost will have nowhere to go and haunt my cousin?"
Shen Ningyuan sneered: "What are nieces and daughters? Chen only has eyes for the Ji family and the dignity of the wife of the Marquis's mansion."
