He looked at Shen Ruyun again. He couldn’t possibly fork out the money, right?
Shen Ruyun gritted her teeth and nodded with her eyes closed. She did not care about a few thousand taels of silver, but when she thought about giving it to Shen Yijia, she was indignant.
Lord Cai nodded. “It’s my duty.”
He instructed his assistant to get the banknotes.!!
The commoners who were still criticizing Shen Yijia just now were all looking at the Shen siblings with disdain.
However, due to Shen Ruyun’s status, they did not dare to be as brazen as they were when they scolded Shen Yijia.
However, even so, the Shen siblings were furious.
This was especially true for Shen Ruyun. No matter what she did at home, she had always been praised by others. When had she ever gone through something like this? At this moment, she felt a chill down her spine.
She looked at Shen Yijia and said gently, “Second Sister, we were also misled. We thought that you really did these things. Fortunately, the misunderstanding was resolved.”
Shen Ruyun had never been a smart person. She only maintained a good reputation due to Madam Chen’s guidance before she married.
Actually, she was still a fool. For example, now, she felt that Shen Yijia only wanted the money because she did not intend to fall out with her family.
She believed that if she gave Shen Yijia a way out, Shen Yijia would cling onto it.
Anyone with a brain would know that it was best not to say anything at this time, let alone provoke Shen Yijia.
However, she did it.
“Misunderstanding? Don’t you know if Lord Shen has a mistress? Doesn’t he know?”
Shen Yijia was disgusted. She did not understand what else to do at this time. They were not blind.
Shen Pingxiu was not worthy of the word “father.”
Shen Yijia originally wanted to ignore him. She only wanted to use her fists to deal with him once after she went out. She noticed the citizens craning their necks outside.
She rolled her eyes and blinked. “If there’s a misunderstanding, I’m the one who has misunderstood your so-called good intentions. You wanted me to be your maidservant since I was young. You wanted me to kneel in the courtyard as punishment in the winter and lock me in the woodshed for no reason. Is this what you mean by kindness? I really don’t care about your so-called kindness to me.”
When all the evidence pointed to Shen Yijia, no one would believe her. However, it was different now.
Shen Yijia did not know that as soon as she said this, Xuanyuan Ce clenched his fists under his sleeves, his entire body emitting dense killing intent.
“Also, about the marriage exchange.” Noticing the panic on Shen Ruyun’s face, Shen Yijia smiled. “If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten. I’m an orphan without a mother and can’t even eat my fill. How can I have the ability to snatch the marriage from you?”
“Initially, I didn’t understand why you suddenly asked me to get married a month before the wedding. Now that I think about it, could it be that you already knew something?”
What was Shen Yijia referring to?
Did Shen Ruyun know that the Bulwark Duke’s Residence would be implicated in the rebellion, or did she know that someone would frame the Bulwark Duke’s Residence?
This was worth thinking about.
If it was the former, why didn’t she report it to His Majesty after knowing?
If it was the latter, could it be that the Shen family was also involved in the framing?
Lord Cai almost knelt down. This girl was not only greedy, but she also dared to say anything.
At the same time, he cursed Lord Jing in his heart for marrying such a stupid thing.
Shen Wenbo’s pupils constricted as he reprimanded, “Shen Yijia, stop spouting nonsense.”
Shen Yijia tilted her head innocently. “Am I wrong? Otherwise, why would things be so coincidental? At that time, Shen Ruyun’s dowry should be almost ready, right? We should be able to find any famous shops in the capital.”
“But at the end of the day, she asked me to get married. She even asked me to get married with an empty box…”
Was she not afraid of offending the Bulwark Duke’s Residence?
“Oh my, my stomach hurts…” Before Shen Yijia could finish, Shen Ruyun covered her stomach and cried out in pain.
The maidservants she brought all shouted in fear, “Hurry up and call a doctor.”
Shen Yijia turned her head away in disdain. Shen Ruyun was acting again.
Lord Cai felt a headache coming on. Why did she come out to cause trouble when she was pregnant? He quickly got someone to get a doctor.
“Back to the residence,” Shen Ruyun screamed.
She secretly squeezed Lian’er’s hand. Lian’er understood and quickly called for the others to help Shen Ruyun leave.
Shen Wenbo followed.
Lord Cai was speechless.
What was going on?
“What more do you want?” he thought.
Shen Yijia was overjoyed when she received a stack of banknotes from him.
As soon as she walked out of the hall, Madam Li and the others surrounded her.
Madam Li’s face was filled with guilt. She opened her mouth to say something.
Shen Yijia smiled and showed her the banknotes. “Mother, look, there’s so much money.”
She knew what Madam Li was feeling guilty about, but she was not the original host. Madam Li had always been very good to her, so she could not blame her on behalf of the original host.
Moreover, the original host was in a place like the Shen family. If nothing happened to the Bulwark Duke’s residence, even if Madam Li chose the original host, Madam Chen would not let her get married properly.
After all, it was too easy to ruin someone’s marriage. She just had to destroy that person’s innocence and reputation.
Madam Chen was even more ruthless and killed the original host. It was not impossible for her to accuse the original host of eloping with someone.
