Chapter 199: The Shen Family Men's Helplessness
Could it be that she should tell her sister-in-law that she had seen with her own eyes her nephew being turned into a human pig in her previous life?
So that's why she is so sure that this baby must be a boy?
After pondering for a moment, Chen Ningyuan smiled and said, "I'm not sure, but a few days ago, I suddenly dreamed of a white and chubby little boy who held my hand and called me aunt, so I thought that this baby might be a boy."
"So that's how it is."
Song Yan'er raised her lips and smiled, lowered her head and stroked her abdomen, with a gentle smile in her eyes.
She whispered, "I hope this baby is a daughter."
"Why?" Shen Ningyuan asked curiously.
"There are constant wars on the border now. If he is a boy and born in the Shen family, he will definitely go to the border in the future." Song Yan'er did not hide anything and spoke her mind truthfully, "But if it is a girl, I can raise her under my knees and protect her for the rest of her life."
After hearing this, Shen Ningyuan felt very uncomfortable.
She knew that Song Yaner was right.
All the men of the Shen family cannot escape the fate of going to war.
If the eldest brother dies in the future, even the second brother, who has literary talent, will have to go to the battlefield.
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan couldn't help but sigh.
Holding Song Yaner's hand, he said softly, "Sister-in-law, I understand what you mean."
Song Yan'er raised her head, forced a smile, and pushed the box towards Chen Ningyuan, "Sister, this money is too much, I can't accept it."
"Sister-in-law, just listen to me and accept it." Shen Ningyuan explained: "This money was taken out of my dowry by the Ji family. It is most suitable for your unborn child."
Song Yan'er paused and stopped being polite to Shen Ningyuan.
"In that case, I'll take it." Song Yan'er said, "If you need money in the future, you can come to me. I will keep these banknotes."
"good."
Then, the two continued walking towards the study.
Behind the two of them, the fake Cui Jin followed not too far away.
When they reached the door of the study, Song Yaner said, "Sister, I'll go back first. Come back to me after you finish talking to your father-in-law."
"Um."
Shen Ningyuan watched Song Yaner leave, then knocked on the study door.
"Come in."
Shen Potian’s deep and powerful voice came from behind the door.
Shen Ningyuan opened the door and walked in slowly.
Shen Potian looked up and saw that the person coming was Shen Ningyuan. He immediately put down the brush in his hand and walked towards her.
"Yuan'er, why are you back?" Shen Potian asked excitedly.
Shen Ningyuan said truthfully: “I have something important to discuss with Daddy, it concerns the Ji family and the Shen family, so I came here in person.”
Shen Potian frowned and asked in a deep voice: “Yuan’er, you are not here to ask your father to help the Ji family overcome difficulties, right?”
After saying that, Shen Potian looked at Shen Ningyuan with a little more disappointment.
Could it be that at this point, my daughter still cannot see the true face of the Ji family and wants to stand up for them?
Chen Ningyuan nodded, "If that's the case, it's true. I want to ask my father to help me plead with the emperor to keep the Ji family's title."
Shen Potian took a deep breath, "Yuan'er, you are confused, do you really want to let Daddy speak to the emperor for the sake of the Ji family?"
"Dad, listen to me first..."
Just as Shen Ningyuan was about to explain, Shen Potian suddenly made a "silence" gesture.
He lowered his voice and said, "Yuan'er, don't talk for now. Someone is eavesdropping outside."
Shen Ningyuan immediately shut up and looked out the window vigilantly.
Indeed, she also noticed that there was someone outside the window.
Neither the father nor the daughter spoke any more, they just looked out the window vigilantly.
At this time, the fake Cui Jin was lying on the edge of the window, putting his ear close to the window to eavesdrop on the movements inside.
When he heard no more sound from inside, the fake Cui Jin frowned instantly.
I wondered in my heart: What happened? Why is there no sound all of a sudden?
After waiting for a long time and seeing that there was no more sound from inside, the fake Cui Jin frowned, turned around and left the study.
“From what Shen Ningyuan said, she wants Shen Potian to go to the palace to plead for the Ji family and keep the Ji family’s title?” Fake Cui Jin narrowed her eyes slightly, “If that’s the case, I have to tell the master about this matter quickly.”
After saying that, the fake Cui Jin quickened his pace and walked outside.
At this time, in the study.
After making sure that the people outside had left, the father and daughter looked relieved.
"Yuan'er, the person has already left, please continue."
Shen Ningyuan nodded, and then said: “Dad, I just said to protect the title of the Ji family, and I didn’t say to protect Ji Zehai’s title. Do you understand what I mean?”
Shen Potian frowned and asked directly, “What’s the difference between saving the Ji family’s title and saving Ji Zehai’s title?”
"Ji Yunchuan is already dead. Doesn't it fall to Ji Zehai to keep the Ji family's title?"
"But father, Ji Zehai doesn't have only Ji Yunchuan as his son."
"What do you mean?" Shen Potian was confused, "Ji Zehai, are there any other legitimate sons?"
Shen Ningyuan nodded, "Dad probably doesn't know that Ji Zehai has a bastard son named Ji Yunnuo."
"Ji Yunnuo?" Shen Potian thought for a moment, "When did I hear this name?"
But for a moment, I couldn't remember it.
Shen Ningyuan didn't ask any more questions and continued to explain: "Dad, Ji Zehai made such a fuss. If you directly told His Majesty that you wanted to keep his title, it would definitely be impossible. But if you let a bastard inherit the title, His Majesty would definitely agree."
Shen Potian nodded, “It is indeed feasible to let Ji Yunnuo inherit the title.”
“But Yuan’er, why did you suddenly do this?” Shen Potian suddenly stared at Shen Ningyuan in confusion, “Could it be that you have already considered it and are ready to remarry Ji Yunnuo?”
"W-what?" Shen Ningyuan was so shocked that his tongue became tied. "Dad, no, listen to my explanation..."
Before he finished explaining, he heard Shen Potian continue: “If Ji Yunnuo has decent character, even if he is a member of the Ji family, as long as Yuan’er likes it, Dad can accept it.”
After hearing this, Shen Ningyuan felt a black screen in front of his eyes.
She hurriedly explained: "Dad, don't misunderstand me, I don't mean to marry Ji Yunnuo."
"You won't marry him?" Shen Potian frowned, "If you don't marry him, then why did you ask your father to go to the palace to plead with His Majesty to transfer the title of the Ji family to him? Isn't it to make him eligible to marry you?"
Seeing Shen Potian’s puzzled look, Shen Ningyuan knew that it would take a while to explain it clearly, and a trace of panic appeared on her face.
Seeing her like this, Shen Potian, who always doted on his daughter, immediately said: "Okay Yuan'er, you have grown up and have your own opinions. If you don't want to say it, Daddy won't force you. Daddy will go to the palace tomorrow and ask the emperor for mercy to keep the Ji family's title."
"Thank you, Dad!"
Seeing Shen Potian readily agree, Shen Ningyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
