Chapter 155: Another debt
As if sensing the murderous intent in Shen Ningyuan's tone, Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue did not speak.
After a while, Shen Ningyuan returned to normal on her own.
"Brother, brother, please pay attention to the things at home." Shen Ningyuan said slowly.
"What about mother?" Shen Haobai thought of the real Cui Jin, "Should we find mother back?"
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan nodded, "Looking for her, even if it means turning the entire capital upside down, I will find her back."
"But we can't alert the enemy. If he finds out that we have discovered his plan, I can't guarantee what he will do to mother!" Shen Ningyuan said seriously.
"What we can guarantee now is that the other party will not harm my mother, but no matter what, we still have to hurry up and find my mother as soon as possible!" Shen Haoyue looked at Shen Haobai, "Brother, don't you agree?"
Shen Haobai nodded, "Yes."
The three were just about to end the topic.
Lan Yin's anxious voice suddenly came from outside.
"Who?"
The three of them changed their expressions and immediately turned around and walked out the door.
When I opened the door, I saw Lan Yin grabbing an old woman's sleeve and refusing to let her leave.
Lan Yin shouted to Shen Ningyuan, “Miss, this old woman was sneaky and was caught by the servant!”
Shen Ningyuan and the two brothers looked at each other and walked over.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the old woman broke free from Lan Yin's hand and ran away without looking back.
Looking at the other person's running back, Shen Ningyuan frowned slightly.
Why does the back of this old woman look so familiar?
"I'll go bring her back!" Shen Haobai said, and immediately chased after him.
But within a cup of tea, Shen Haobai came back by himself, looking at the three people and shaking his head helplessly: "I didn't catch him. He disappeared after passing through the backyard."
"It's okay. Lan Yin has been guarding outside. The other party should not have heard our conversation."
Shen Ningyuan said, looking at the two brothers, "Big brother, second brother, I will go back to the Ji family first."
"Didn't my sister say that she wanted to stay in the general's mansion for a night?" Shen Haobai frowned.
Shen Ningyuan shook her head and said, "I'd better go back first, so as not to alert the enemy."
"good."
The two of them escorted Shen Ningyuan out of the general's mansion.
Seeing a carriage parked in front of the gate of the general's mansion, Shen Ningyuan looked at his two brothers strangely.
Shen Haoyue explained softly: "You have been out for a day, you must be tired. If you take the bus back, you don't have to be so tired."
"Um."
Shen Ningyuan nodded without any pretense, and got on the carriage under the gaze of the two.
The carriage drove away, and Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue's faces turned cold.
Shen Haoyue said quietly: “I didn’t expect that in such a short period of time, the Shen family has been remembered by so many people.”
Shen Haobai sneered: "Dad has soldiers and mom has money, how could they not be targeted by others?"
When Shen Potian was mentioned, Shen Haobai suddenly froze and turned to look at Shen Haoyue.
"Is Dad not at home today? In the past, as soon as my sister came home, Dad would definitely come out to see her first. But today, my sister is gone, and Dad didn't show up either."
Shen Haoyue said helplessly: "Dad went to the palace last night to accompany the emperor. He should be back tonight."
Shen Haobai: “…”
Touching his nose, Shen Haobai said angrily: "Okay."
Obviously, the two of them were already used to Shen Potian entering the palace at any time.

On the other side, sitting in the carriage returning to the Ji family, Shen Ningyuan's brows were tightly furrowed.
Since her rebirth, many things have developed beyond her expectations.
She killed one Cui Mingzhu, and then a fake Cui Mingzhu appeared.
Even his real mother is missing.
Thinking of these messy things, Shen Ningyuan frowned even more tightly.
"Miss, are you still thinking about your cousin?" Lan Yin asked with concern.
Shen Ningyuan frowned and nodded, "I guess so."
Seeing Shen Ningyuan frowning, Lan Yin had no choice but to shut up silently.
At this time, Shen Ningyuan opened the curtains, “We are almost at the Ji family, stop the car!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage stopped immediately.
"Miss, what's the matter?" the coachman asked outside.
"Just drop us off here, and we'll walk the rest of the way back by ourselves," said Shen Ningyuan.
Then he opened the curtain and got out of the car.
Lan Yin got off the carriage behind Shen Ningyuan, gave the driver two silver coins, and asked him to go back to the Shen family as soon as possible.
The coachman nodded, took the silver from Lan Yin's hand, and drove the carriage back.
Lan Yin looked at Shen Ningyuan and asked curiously: "Miss, even if you send us to the door of the Ji family, no one will say anything, why did you stop here?"
Shen Ningyuan shook her head, "There's still something I haven't dealt with. I'll go back after I've dealt with it."
"Is there anything else? Haven't today's issues been resolved?" Lan Yin asked puzzledly.
"Just follow me."
After that, Shen Ningyuan walked towards the secluded alley.
At the entrance of the alley, the owner of the money shop had obviously been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Shen Ningyuan coming over, the shopkeeper immediately handed over the IOU signed by Ji Zehai himself.
"Miss, Ji Zehai has signed it personally. This IOU with high interest has come into effect."
The shopkeeper looked at Chen Ningyuan flatteringly, "Miss, you can take this IOU and go to the Marquis' Mansion to pay back the money at any time."
“Well done.”
Shen Ningyuan took the IOU and looked at where Ji Zehai signed.
"Doesn't he have any doubts?" Shen Ningyuan asked again.
The shopkeeper shook his head, "No, it seems that he is in urgent need of money. Ji Zehai signed the contract without any doubt."
"That's good. Please keep this IOU for me first, and I'll come to collect it when the time comes."
Shen Ningyuan handed the IOU to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took the IOU and said respectfully, "Okay, Miss. I'll go back first then."
"Um."
Shen Ningyuan nodded calmly and watched the shopkeeper leave her sight.
"Miss, the Ji family owes you so much money. Will they pay it back in the end?" Lan Yin asked doubtfully.
Shen Ningyuan replied coldly: "You won't pay back the money? Then pay with your life."
After finishing speaking, Shen Ningyuan turned and walked out of the alley, heading towards the direction of the Marquis' Mansion.
"Miss!"
Lan Yin, who was following behind her, suddenly shouted.
Shen Ningyuan suddenly became nervous, and just as she was about to turn around, a hand covered her mouth.
A hard chest pressed against her from behind, and Shen Ningyuan was about to resist immediately.
But the next second, a familiar smell enveloped her.
Shen Ningyuan stopped immediately and asked in a cold tone: "Your Highness, have you been too idle recently? Why are you targeting me again?"
As soon as I asked the question, the person behind me immediately let go of my hand.
Then, Xie Wanzhou's playful voice sounded in his ears: "Chen Ningyuan, I didn't say anything, how did you know it was me?"
