Chapter 68: Forcing her to take action again
"What?" Chen jumped up from the couch, "She's going to stop giving me blood ginseng and bird's nest?"
Uncle Chen explained anxiously, "It's absolutely true. That little bitch just called me over and checked all the account books in the mansion. He cut off a lot of unnecessary expenses."
Hearing this, Chen became even more anxious and asked loudly, "What do you do? Don't you stop her?"
Uncle Chen acted very embarrassed, "I tried to stop her, but Shen Ningyuan kept saying that everything the Marquis's family eats and uses comes from her dowry, and I couldn't find a reason to stop her."
Upon hearing this, Chen's blood immediately surged.
He beat his chest and roared, "She has already married into the Marquis's Mansion. Don't all her things belong to the Marquis's Mansion? What right does she have to stop my blood ginseng and medicinal diet? She is trying to kill me!"
Seeing Chen's angry look, Uncle Chen didn't know what to say to persuade her and could only stand aside and sigh.
Chen was angry for a long time before she slowly calmed down.
"No, we can't let Shen Ningyuan come anymore!" Chen narrowed her eyes slightly and turned her head to look at Uncle Chen, "Where's the eldest lady?"
"The eldest lady is still under house arrest in the courtyard. She cannot go out without the master's order."
Chen thought for a moment and said in a muffled voice, "I'll go see her."
Having said that, Chen stood up and went to Ji Yunhuan's yard.
On the other side, Ji Yunhuan was in his room, clenching the handkerchief in his hand, thinking about how to deal with the situation.
She couldn't just sit there and wait for death, otherwise after her eldest brother's funeral, she would have to watch herself being sent to the temple to become a nun!
Thinking of this, Ji Yunhuan became extremely panicked.
She turned to look at the maid beside her and asked angrily, "Where's my mother? Didn't she say that she would find a way to help me so that I don't have to be sent to the temple to become a nun? How come there has been no movement until now, but she has taken that bitch Shen Ningyuan back to the Marquis' Mansion!"
After he finished speaking, Ji Yunhuan's personal maid, Bilian, opened the curtain and walked in from outside.
As soon as he came in, he looked at Ji Yunhuan and said anxiously: "Miss, the lady is here to see you!"
"real?"
Ji Yunhuan's eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up from the chair and walked out the door anxiously.
As soon as I went out, I saw Chen and Uncle Chen walking in.
"Mom, you finally came to see your daughter!"
When he saw Chen, Ji Yunhuan immediately went up to her and threw himself into her arms.
"Mom, you have to think of a solution quickly. My eldest brother's funeral is coming soon. Do you really have the heart to send your daughter to the temple after my eldest brother's funeral?"
Ji Yunhuan cried so hard that she couldn't speak, and she held Chen tightly and refused to let go.
Seeing this, Uncle Chen reminded in a low voice: "Huan'er, be rational. Your uncle and your mother came here just for this matter."
Hearing this, Ji Yunhuan's eyes brightened.
He immediately raised his head from Chen's arms, looked at Uncle Chen and asked, "Really, Uncle?"
Before Uncle Chen could speak, Mrs. Chen's voice rang out, "Of course it's true. Can your uncle really lie to you?"
"What's more, how could your mother bear to watch you go to the temple to become a nun?" Chen added.
Seeing how serious the two were, Ji Yunhuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and pulled Chen into the house.
"Mom, tell me quickly, what is the solution?"
As soon as he sat down, Ji Yunhuan's eyes lit up and he asked impatiently.
Hearing this, Mrs. Chen and Uncle Chen looked at each other and saw the same murderous intent in each other's eyes.
Then, Chen looked at Ji Yunhuan and said in a cold tone: “As long as Shen Ningyuan dies, no one can force you to become a monk.”
Ji Yunhuan frowned slightly, looking a little puzzled, “Mom, do you have to kill Shen Ningyuan?”
Before, Chen asked her to poison Shen Ningyuan, which she didn’t quite understand.
Although she didn't like Shen Ningyuan very much, this sister-in-law was quite generous to her.
No matter how much she hated her, she never thought of killing her.
It was Chen who kept brainwashing her and analyzing the pros and cons with her, so she listened to Chen's words and poisoned Shen Ningyuan.
Unexpectedly, even though the poisoning failed, Chen still didn’t give up the idea of killing Shen Ningyuan.
Thinking of this, Ji Yunhuan asked curiously: “Mom, the last time you poisoned someone, you failed. How are you going to kill Shen Ningyuan this time?”
Mrs. Chen and Uncle Chen looked at each other again, and finally their gazes fell on Ji Yunhuan, their eyes were dark and unclear.
Seeing this, Ji Yunhuan's heart skipped a beat. He covered his mouth and exclaimed, "Mom, you don't want me to do it again, do you?"
This was just Ji Yunhuan's guess. She thought that no matter what the situation was, Chen would not ask her to kill someone twice in a row.
But when he saw that Chen didn't say anything, Ji Yunhuan suddenly felt a chill in his throat.
He asked hesitantly: "Mom, do you really want me to attack Shen Ningyuan again?"
Chen nodded, her tone even more serious than before, "Yes."
Ji Yunhuan: “…”
Seeing Chen's serious look, Ji Yunhuan's heart skipped a beat again.
She just asked this question unnecessarily.
Seeing Ji Yunhuan didn't say anything, Chen hurried over, patted Ji Yunhuan's hand, and comforted her: "Huan'er, don't worry, mother has considered it carefully this time and will not harm you."
Ji Yunhuan was silent, with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, she suddenly raised her head, looked at Chen, and asked, "Mom, if you have considered it carefully, why don't you do it yourself?"
Chen: “…”
After these words were spoken, Chen was speechless.
Seeing the seriousness in Ji Yunhuan's eyes, Chen opened her mouth but couldn't say anything to refute.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Uncle Chen quickly spoke to ease the situation, "Huan'er, how can you talk to your mother like that? You are her biological daughter, how can she harm you? Your mother did this for your own good. She knew that you didn't want to become a nun in the temple, so she has been trying to find a solution for you."
After hearing what Uncle Chen said, Ji Yunhuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something to refute.
But my throat seemed to be blocked by something and I couldn't open my mouth.
Just saying "It's for your own good" can stop all her resistance.
Chen stared at Ji Yunhuan, eagerly waiting for her response.
Being stared at by Chen like this, Ji Yunhuan felt inexplicably panicked.
I still remember that when Chen asked her to poison Shen Ningyuan a few days ago, he stared at her with such eyes.
Being stared at in such a way, she had no choice but to compromise.
After a long stalemate, Ji Yunhuan lowered his head and asked, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Chen and Uncle Chen looked at each other and saw the same joy in each other's eyes.
Chen was so anxious that she grabbed Ji Yunhuan's hand and said with relief: "Huan'er, you are really a good daughter of your mother!"
Being held by Chen's hand, Ji Yunhuan subconsciously wanted to retract his hand.
But his hand was held tightly by Chen and he couldn't pull it away.
She could only accept her fate and let Chen hold her hand.
Chen held Ji Yunhuan's hand and told her plans and arrangements.
After listening to this, Ji Yunhuan raised his head, looked into Chen's eyes in disbelief, and asked in a trembling voice: "Mom, do you really want me to do this?"
