Chapter 27: Rumors
Seeing Song Yaner stamping her feet anxiously, Shen Ningyuan's heart skipped a beat.
He asked anxiously: "Sister-in-law, tell me, what is going on outside?"
"Those people outside who don't know the truth are saying that our Shen family is not doing anything right and is violating ethics and morality by snatching our married daughter back from her husband's family!"
“What’s more, it is said that my father-in-law doesn’t even take the Tian family seriously, and that the Shen family army has long wanted to rebel. Otherwise, how dare they be so arrogant and surround the Ji family at will?”
After hearing these words, Shen Ningyuan also felt her heartbeat quicken.
It is obvious that someone is deliberately guiding public opinion and forcing the Shen family into a desperate situation!
Song Yaner became angrier and angrier as she spoke. "That's fine, but what makes me even more angry is that the people actually said, said..."
At this point, Song Yaner looked at Shen Ningyuan, unable to say anything.
Seeing this, Shen Ningyuan frowned slightly.
She knew that the next words would be about her.
She even realized that it was not a good thing.
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan gently comforted: “Sister-in-law, what else did they say, just tell me directly, I’m fine.”
Song Yan'er said angrily, "They said that after you married into the Ji family, you would never be willing to be a widow for Ji Yunchuan, and you must have been cheating on her secretly. Moreover, the rumors are very convincing, saying that you even have a child!"
"The Shen family was worried that your pregnancy would be exposed, so they deliberately made trouble at the funeral and used the excuse to bring you back to the Shen family!"
Song Yaner took a deep breath, and finally mustered up the courage to say those unbearable words.
Song Yan'er was trembling all over as she spoke, gritting her teeth and saying, "These rumors must have been spread by the Ji family!"
"Damn Ji family, how could they be so vicious!"
"After failing to harm Yuan'er at the funeral, they resorted to such a vicious method to damage Yuan'er's reputation!"
“How hateful!”
Song Yaner gnashed her teeth in anger.
After hearing her words, Shen Ningyuan felt indescribable in her heart.
Unexpectedly, at this time, my sister-in-law was the first one to worry.
Neither the Shen family's reputation nor her own reputation would be affected.
From beginning to end, my sister-in-law only cared about her own reputation.
Brother, I really found a good person!
If she couldn't keep these things in her life again, her rebirth would be meaningless!
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan took a step forward and patted Song Yaner's hand soothingly.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Everything will work out. This matter... can definitely be handled properly."
Hearing this, Song Yan'er smiled bitterly and said, "Yuan'er, I know these things can be dealt with in a way. I'm just simply angry."
Song Yan'er pointed at Cui Jin and said, "Actually, the person who is really worried about you is your mother. Look how anxious she is!"
"I know."
Shen Ningyuan responded, then walked to Cui Jin and said softly, "Mom, take it easy for a while, don't be too anxious, and don't get angry and hurt yourself."
"Yuan'er, it's already this time, how can mother not be anxious?"
Cui Jin said with a sad face: "Your second brother has already investigated it clearly. It was those bastards in the Ji family who deliberately hired people to discredit you. They wanted to ruin your reputation and force you back to the Ji family!"
Cui Jin was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet, saying, "I have always thought that although the Ji family has declined, it is still a famous family. But I never thought that the Ji family would use such a despicable method to force Yuan'er to return to the Ji family!"
Seeing her mother so angry, Shen Ningyuan’s mind suddenly flashed back to Ji Yunchuan’s words last night.
Could this be Ji Yunchuan’s plan?
He used public opinion to force himself back to the Ji family.
But for some reason, Shen Ningyuan always felt that things were not that simple.
If it was just Ji Yunchuan alone, his efficiency wouldn't be so fast!
It is even more impossible for rumors against her to spread everywhere in just one night.
After all, this is not something that ordinary people can do!
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan frowned tightly.
She vaguely felt that the person behind Ji Yunchuan had taken action.
"Yuan'er, what are your plans now?"
Cui Jin suddenly grabbed Shen Ningyuan's hand and said anxiously: "How about we do as your second brother said yesterday, and let mother find a way to send you out of the capital, so that you can hide your identity and stay away from this place of trouble?"
This is the best solution she can think of for Shen Ningyuan as a mother!
Shen Ningyuan pursed her lips and did not respond to Cui Jin's words.
Seeing that her daughter didn't say anything, Cui Jin's heart ached even more.
He raised his hand and beat his chest, sighing in despair: "What a hateful Ji family! Why did they force my daughter to this point?"
"If I had known it would turn out like this, I shouldn't have agreed to marry Yuan'er to the Ji family!"
After saying that, Cui Jin started to cry, "Wow, my poor daughter, I am your mother and I am sorry for you!"
But Shen Ningyuan was very calm.
Seeing Cui Jin crying, she just gently held her hand and said in a low voice: "Mom, you are not sorry for me. This is my own choice. I pushed myself into this sea of suffering with my own hands. No one is sorry for me."
After hearing this, Cui Jin stopped crying immediately.
With red and swollen eyes, he stared blankly at Shen Ningyuan.
She always felt that Shen Ningyuan in front of her seemed like a different person.
"Yuan'er, how did you become..."
So sensible?
Cui Jin couldn't utter the last four words.
If possible, she would rather Shen Ningyuan not become so sensible.
Shen Ningyuan gently comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, things will work out when the time comes. This matter is not as bad as you think."
Cui Jin paused and said nothing.
Song Yan'er, who was standing by, asked, "But Yuan'er, the rumors outside are really serious. If you don't handle them well, your reputation will be completely ruined. Do you really not care at all?"
Shen Ningyuan shook her head and said seriously, "Sister-in-law, how could I not care? You know, those rumors outside not only affect my reputation, but also the reputation of the Shen family... Even if I don't care about my own reputation, I will never let the reputation of the Shen family be affected by me."
Song Yaner's face darkened, and she looked at Shen Ningyuan with worry, and asked in a muffled voice: "Then Yuaner...what are you going to do?"
Shen Ningyuan did not answer but asked: "Why do you want to deal with it?"
Hearing this, Song Yaner and Cui Jin were both stunned and looked at Shen Ningyuan in surprise.
Cui Jin disagreed and said, "But Yuan'er, if you don't do anything, this matter will get bigger and bigger. I'm afraid that by then, it will be out of control and you will have no place to stand in the capital."
Shen Ningyuan shook her head and said calmly: "Mom, the Ji family knows that we care about this, so they deliberately made up these rumors to force me to return to the Ji family, but if I really return to the Ji family, doesn't it just prove that I am guilty?"
Shen Ningyuan continued, “As long as I feel guilty, I can prove that the rumors are true.”
"By that time, everyone will believe that I am really pregnant with a bastard, and that the Shen family really has the intention of rebellion. We can't clear ourselves of this even if we jump into the Yellow River..."
