Chapter 012: Brother is here to take you home!
Shen Haobai had a stern expression, staring coldly at the door plaque of the Marquis' Mansion.
After hearing the footsteps, Shen Haobai's eyes moved downwards.
The moment he saw Shen Ningyuan, his originally stern expression instantly softened.
Shen Haobai turned over and got off the horse, and quickly ran to Shen Ningyuan.
His hand trembled as he raised it, as if he wanted to touch Shen Ningyuan's face.
But the next second, he restrained himself and lowered his hand, saying in a deep voice: "Sister, big brother is here to take you home!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Ningyuan's voice choked instantly, "Brother..."
My eyes became red uncontrollably.
"Sister, don't cry!"
Seeing Shen Ningyuan crying, Shen Haobai immediately panicked and wiped Shen Ningyuan's tears at a loss.
"Sister, did that filthy family bully you?"
"If you have any grievances, you must tell me and I will seek justice for you!"
Seeing that Shen Ningyuan was still sobbing, Shen Haobai gritted his teeth and said, "I knew that Ji Yunchuan was gone! Those wicked people in the Ji family will definitely bully you..."
Shen Haobai almost gritted his teeth and said, "I will go and destroy the Ji family right now and get rid of this evil breath!"
As he spoke, Shen Haobai glared at the gate of the Ji family with resentment, and was about to rush in with a spear in hand.
“Brother——” Shen Ningyuan quickly stopped Shen Haobai.
“Chen Haobai, come back!” Shen Potian also ordered in a deep voice.
Shen Haobai gave up at this point, and turned around to look at Shen Potian unwillingly.
She asked angrily, "Dad! Are you just going to watch your sister being bullied by them?"
Shen Haobai clenched his fists in anger, and veins popped out on the back of his hands.
He gritted his teeth and said, "At first, the Ji family sent news that my sister had committed suicide for Ji Yunchuan... But when we rushed over, my sister was standing in front of us in good health. If you say there is no trick behind this, I absolutely don't believe it!"
Shen Haobai became more and more angry as he spoke, his eyes were almost bloodshot.
Shen Ningyuan knew that although his elder brother was a military commander, he had a gentle temperament and rarely went berserk.
But when he saw that he was wronged, he almost lost his mind.
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan reached out and squeezed Shen Haobai's hand like she did when she was a child.
He whispered, "Brother, if there is anything, let's go back and talk about it."
Shen Haobai looked at Shen Ningyuan, and then he slowly calmed down.
Cui Jin walked to the side of the two siblings and said in a deep voice: "Yuan'er is right. If there is anything, let's go back and talk about it."
As he said that, he called Shen Ningyuan to get on the carriage.
Seeing this, Shen Haobai had to suppress his anger, got on his horse and headed towards the Shen family.
At this time, the servant hiding behind the gate of the Marquis' Mansion hurried back after making sure that all the Shen family members had left.
The servant came to the backyard and told Ji Zehai and Chen what was happening outside.
After listening to this, Ji Zehai asked in disbelief: "The Shen family just left like that without leaving a single soldier behind?"
The servant nodded quickly, "They all left, not a single soldier remained."
Chen heaved a sigh of relief, "It seems that the Shen family is still wary of us."
Then he looked at Ji Zehai, "Master, I said it's okay, right? The Shen family doesn't dare to do anything to us!"
Ji Zehai did not respond to her.
He continued to stare at the servant and asked seriously, "Did the Shen family say anything when they left? Or did they do anything unusual?"
The servant shook his head, "Nothing was said, but General Shen Haobai looked very angry and wanted to rush in with a gun, but was stopped by the young lady."
Hearing this, Ji Zehai's heart skipped a beat.
He groaned and said, "The Shen family must have noticed something, so there is such a big commotion!"
As he spoke, Ji Zehai glared at Chen fiercely and scolded in a cold voice: "Have I ever told you that even if you want to deal with Shen Ningyuan, don't do it at Yunchuan's funeral. There are so many people and eyes, and it is inevitable that something will go wrong... If you listened to me, how could it have turned out like this!"
Chen felt very aggrieved by Ji Zehai's reprimand, and muttered softly, "But Lord Marquis, when I proposed this plan, didn't you object? You even suggested to me that Huan'er poison Chen Ningyuan."
"You still dare to quibble!" Ji Zehai said in a more serious tone, "You made a mistake, so I can't teach you a lesson, right?"
"My Lord, I——"
Bang!
Seeing that Chen wanted to speak again, Ji Zehai slapped her in the face.
"How dare you talk back!" Ji Zehai cursed: "My Ji family is a noble family after all, how could we marry a stupid woman like you!"
Chen choked, covered her beaten face, and looked at Ji Zehai in disbelief.
He asked, "My Lord, do you despise me for my humble origins?"
"If you dislike me, you shouldn't have married me in the first place." Chen cried, "I gave birth to a pair of children for the Marquis, but he still doesn't like me. I'd rather die!"
Seeing her crying, Ji Zehai felt even more upset.
After saying a few words to comfort her, he sent her to check on Ji Yunhuan's condition.
Ji Yunhuan hasn't woken up since he fell into a coma.
After Chen left wiping her tears, Ji Zehai collapsed on the Zen chair and let out a long sigh.
Now that they have offended the Shen family, the Marquis’ Mansion is probably doomed!
-
On the other side, Shen Ningyuan followed her parents and eldest brother back to the general's mansion.
The carriage shook all the way and finally stopped in front of the general's mansion.
"Mom, Yuan'er, we're home."
Shen Haobai's deep voice came from outside the carriage.
Cui Jin patted Shen Ningyuan's hand, "Yuan'er, get out of the car, we're home."
"good."
Shen Ningyuan nodded and followed Cui Jin out of the carriage.
Standing on familiar land, looking at the familiar gate and door plaque.
Shen Ningyuan couldn't recover for a long time.
In her previous life, ever since she married into the Ji family.
Until her death, until her soul was imprisoned on the chastity arch, until she witnessed the entire Shen family being turned into human pigs...
She hasn't been back to the Shen family for four years.
Looking at everything familiar, Shen Ningyuan was still a little dazed.
She was so scared that everything before her was just a dream.
After waking up from the dream, she had to return to the cold and icy chastity arch.
"younger sister!"
At this moment, a clear voice pulled Shen Ningyuan out of her trance.
Shen Ningyuan looked up and saw Shen Haoyue, dressed in white, running out of the general's mansion with a panicked look on his face.
"Two, two..."
Shen Ningyuan opened her mouth.
I couldn't say "Second Brother" because I was choking with sobs.
At this moment, in Shen Ningyuan's mind.
The scene of the previous life repeatedly emerged, in which the human-pig jar containing Shen Haoyue was tightly attached to the chastity arch.
Until Shen Haoyue ran to Shen Ningyuan.
“Second brother!”
The complete "Second Brother" was finally shouted out loud.
Then, Shen Ningyuan threw herself into Shen Haoyue's arms and burst into tears.
"Wuwuwu, second brother, it's really you...it's really you, I thought I would never see you again in this life!"
Being hugged tightly by Shen Ningyuan, Shen Haoyue's body stiffened, his hands spread out on both sides, not knowing where to put them.
"Yuan'er, you..."
Shen Haoyue opened his mouth, but was unable to speak because of his choked voice.
He and Shen Ningyuan haven't been this close for many years.
He has liked this sister since he was a child.
His parents were away all year round, and they didn't have as much time as he did to take care of Shen Ningyuan.
He could even say that he had raised Shen Ningyuan with great difficulty since she was a child.
The saying that older girls should avoid older brothers simply does not exist between him and Shen Ningyuan.
But ever since Shen Ningyuan fell in love with Ji Yunchuan, she inexplicably began to distance herself from him.
They haven't hugged each other like this for a long time.
Thinking of this, Shen Haoyue plucked up the courage, and locked Shen Ningyuan in his arms.
His voice was choked and hoarse, "Sister, second brother has finally waited for you... to come home!"
