Chapter 244 No Way Out (4)
"It's not my business what they say. Since you insist on believing this, I don't bother to explain. You don't believe it anyway. Did you come here just to call me to task?"
Chen Yuan endured it again and again. The girl in front of him smiled calmly, the corner of her lips curved into a mocking arc, her eyes clear as water, reflecting his slightly embarrassed self. He was proud and conceited, but now he was tricked by a little girl, and he was naturally very unwilling to accept it. However, when the matter came to this point, he had indeed underestimated his enemy.
"Aren't you afraid of implicating the Shen family by doing this? If so, uncle's family will not be able to escape any good!" Shen Yuan said viciously.
Hearing this, Shen Miao seemed to have heard something funny. She looked at Shen Yuan with a smile for a moment, and only when Shen Yuan could no longer hold back his anger did she speak calmly, "I didn't do anything. Besides, what Second Brother said is really strange. Even if this matter is related to the Shen family, what does it have to do with our eldest branch?" She said lightly, "My parents and brother are in the northwest all year round. You can't say that a little girl like me can become the head of the eldest branch. Even if the Shen family is really implicated, Second Brother, at least the eldest branch, can get away with it with a clean slate."
Shen Yuan gasped.
It's not that he hadn't thought of this, but when he brought this up, it was simply to show that Shen Miao had no understanding of the affairs of the court. No matter how clever and cunning Shen Miao was, she could only bully others in the rear quarters. The court was a man's world. Shen Miao was in the Shen residence, so who would analyze the court situation with her? Shen Gui? Shen Wan? Don't laugh at me. But Shen Miao's sarcastic words clearly showed that she understood these situations better than anyone else.
"So you already have a trick up your sleeve." Chen Yuan's expression changed, and he sneered, "It seems that your eldest wife is not going to take action?"
"We never have the leisure to worry about other people's affairs." Shen Miao looked at him calmly: "Second Uncle and Third Uncle, you need to explain it properly now. But the one who should be most worried about is you, Second Brother." She shook her head and said with regret: "You just returned to Dingjing City to take office, and you encountered such a thing. This is really hindering Second Brother's future."
She deliberately spoke in a rhythmic manner, perhaps because she had been with Shen Qiu for so long these days that she had learned to be irritating without showing any emotion. This made Shen Yuan's fists clench even tighter in anger.
Shen Miao suddenly turned her head, stroked the soft fur of her own body, and said with a smile: "But considering that we all have the surname Chen, I do have an idea that can solve this urgent problem."
"I dare not use Fifth Sister's idea." Chen Yuan stared at her: "If you are not careful, you will lose your life without knowing it."
"Brother, you're joking. I'm not that scary. I came up with this idea sincerely for you. But I think with my intelligence, I'm afraid I've already thought of it. Since the Shen family has been implicated, wouldn't it be better to just separate them from it? In fact, I also know that rumors can't be true. It's just that if they spread for a long time, people will inevitably become suspicious. So, when the rumor first started, just treat it as a 'rumor'. But how to make it a 'rumor' requires Big Sister to clarify."
Shen Miao looked out the window, where Shen Qiu was crouching under a tree, holding his rifle nervously, peering into the house from afar. She smiled faintly, "I think the most powerful clarification in this world is at the cost of one's life."
"You!" Shen Yuan suddenly stretched out his fist, but stopped just above Shen Miao's head. He stared at Shen Miao and said, "At your age, you have such a vicious heart. Fifth sister, you are the first person I have ever seen in my life."
