Chapter 478 - 478 Punish Them A Little!
478 Punish Them A Little!
Shen Tingyan was slightly startled, but she quickly smiled and said, “I heard that there was trouble at home, so I came back to take a look.”
Shen Yuansong nodded and said, “Okay, go see your mother quickly.”
“Okay.” Shen Tingyan nodded at Shen Ruojing before leaving.
With such a big incident happening at home, she didn’t want to tell her grandfather about her trivial matters.
Otherwise, he would surely get angry. Right now, the most important thing was to solve the crisis at home.
Taking away two-thirds of the family’s assets sounded simple, but the family business was like a production line where everything was arranged properly.
Suddenly losing two-thirds of the assets meant that the remaining one-third might not be able to sustain the family, and there would definitely be financial problems.
As Shen Tingyan thought of this, she entered her residence. And when Third Madam Shen saw her, she was quite surprised and asked, “Why did you come back today?”
Since she didn’t want to worry Shen Yuansong or her mother, Shen Tingyan just smiled and said, “Nothing, I just came back to accompany you for a few days.”
Third Madam Shen saw that her daughter’s expression was normal and she nodded.
But at noon, Madam Xu from the Xu family sent a butler over.
Third Madam Shen smiled at Shen Tingyan and said, “Do you still want to stay? Your mother-in-law probably wouldn’t agree. Look, they’re sending someone to call you back, right?”
However, Shen Tingyan’s body tensed.
The butler from the Xu family was an old woman who had been with Madam Xu for a long time. After she entered the house, she smiled and said, “Miss, you left in a hurry and forgot to bring the medicine, so the madam asked me to specially bring it to you.”
After that, the butler took out the medicine and said, “Madam also asked you to stay here. She said she wants me to watch over you and make sure you drink the medicine three times a day.”
Third Madam Shen’s expression changed immediately and she asked, “What medicine?”
The butler smiled and said, “It’s naturally a fertility medicine. Our madam has found a special prescription for her!”
After she finished speaking, the people behind her brought out the medicine one by one.
The butler first lit a talisman paper and threw it into the water. Then she started adding all kinds of dark medicinal herbs…
Third Madam Shen looked at a black ball and asked, “What is this?”
The butler smiled and said, “Oh, this is cow dung. It is said that cow dung contains a kind of fermentation material that is good for the body…”
Third Madam Shen suddenly felt nauseous!
The butler opened another package, and it was full of dried centipedes.
She took one and broke it into pieces, throwing them into a bottle of medicine. She then opened another bottle, and there were a bunch of squirming earthworms inside!
The butler used a pair of tweezers to take out the earthworms, held her nose in disgust, and threw them into the medicine bottle.
After poking them to death with a stick, she immediately handed the bottle to Shen Tingyan, saying, “Miss, drink it while it’s fresh!”
Shen Tingyan’s face turned as pale as paper. Seeing this, third Madam Shen was furious and stood up. “You are going too far. This is torture!”
The butler laughed and said, “Torture? Everything we use has its medicinal effect, and it is specially prescribed for people. Madam said she knows that the young mistress may need to endure some hardships, but our Xu family cannot afford to lose its direct line. Therefore, please drink it quickly while it’s fresh and effective!”
Third Madam Shen wanted to say something, but Shen Tingyan immediately took the medicine and drank it in one gulp. However, as soon as she finished, she couldn’t help feeling nauseous and rushed into the bathroom to vomit.
The butler sighed at the door and said, “Madam, you’ve just thrown away Madam’s good intentions. Our Xu family’s future depends on you. If you can’t have children, what are we going to do?”
Third Madam Shen immediately rushed over and pushed the butler aside, embracing Shen Tingyan and crying bitterly in the bathroom.
Meanwhile, Shen Ruojing knew nothing about what was happening in the third branch’s residence. She only told the butler, Uncle Liu, to keep an eye on them and prevent any sabotage against them.
Uncle Liu nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Miss. The old master has instructed us.”
Within half a day, the second house and its occupants were urged to move out.
After arriving at the residence in the south, the second branch felt that it was too small and very unlucky.
Shen Zhong and Shen Chong had gloomy faces and discussed the problem. In the end, they decided to punish the main branch a little and teach them a lesson.
At this time, Shen Cong spoke up, “Dad, Uncle, let me handle this! She’s in charge of the security system, right? What if the security system malfunctions tonight and thieves break into the manor? Where will she put her face then?”
Shen Zhong and Shen Chong were stunned and asked, “But who can break into the Shen Manor and steal things? Although she employed a few people who didn’t look very reliable today, the walls of the Shen Manor are high and have protective glass!”
Shen Cong smiled. “I already have people in mind!”
At night.
Shen Cong secretly brought the Fourth Senior Brother of Valor Gate and several outer disciples to the entrance of the Shen Manor.
After that, he looked at the Shen Manor fiercely and handed the map of the terrain to the Fourth Senior Brother, saying, “Do you see it? This is Shen Ruojing’s bedroom! You can steal things here, and if you can do something more, even better. It’s best to ruin her reputation!”
The Fourth Senior Brother thought of Shen Ruojing’s beautiful face and gulped down his saliva. “Okay, leave it to me!”
He immediately led the group of Valor Gate’s disciples and sneaked into the backyard.
Shen Cong had said that Shen Ruojing had hired several unreliable-looking fellows as the new security guards. After they scaled the wall, they could simply knock the guards out, and they could do as they pleased.
With this in mind, the Fourth Senior Brother jumped over the high wall…
