The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

"Yan'er, I haven't seen you for a few days. You look thinner."

The look of pity and love on her face would make people who didn't know think that Shen Qingyan was Qin Fenglan's biological daughter.

Shen Qingyan brushed her hand away without giving her any face, her face cold.

"Second Madam, there's no need to try to get close to me. Just keep talking."

Qin Fenglan's hands froze in mid-air awkwardly, her smile awkward.

"Don't worry, Yan'er, I just..."

Shen Qingyan didn't want to listen to her hypocritical nonsense, so she turned around and sat down.

"I came here today for only one purpose, which is to take back my mother's dowry. Are you ready?"

Shen Yunjiao's expression changed slightly, and she immediately stepped forward to change the subject.

"Sister, we are all family. It's not easy for you to come back. We have prepared a family dinner..."

Shen Qingyan sneered and interrupted her coldly.

"Isn't it said that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled? I am an outsider, why should I eat at the family dinner?"

Shen Yunjiao's smile froze, and everything she wanted to say was stuck in her throat.

Qin Fenglan and Shen Yunjiao were embarrassed, so people from the second and third rooms naturally wouldn't step forward and embarrass themselves.

But there was one person who was different. Shen Zhidie ignored Feng Huirou's attempts to stop her and said, "Sister, we have good intentions. There were many misunderstandings before, and grandma specially held this family dinner to clarify those misunderstandings..."

Shen Qingyan's eyes were icy as she glanced over, and Shen Zhidie's voice instantly dropped.

"Could it be that the money for the family banquet was also used from my mother's dowry?"

The main hall fell into silence in an instant.

She was right indeed.

Old Madam Shen didn't expect Shen Qingyan to be so stubborn. Her expression changed several times before finally turning into a kind one.

"Yan'er, grandma knows that you are angry. It was indeed what they did before that was wrong. Grandma has already talked to them about it."

"Now that you are back today, let's sit down together as a family and have a good meal and talk it out."

Everyone's eyes fell on Shen Qingyan, and they all thought that although she didn't give face to others, she would always give face to the old lady, right?

Unexpectedly, Shen Qingyan looked at Old Madam Shen with cold eyes and expressionless face, and her voice was still as cold as ice.

"Grandma, I just want to ask one question now, can I get my mother's dowry?"

This sentence made Old Madam Shen choke.

It seems that the strategy of appealing to people's emotions and reasoning simply doesn't work.

There was no other choice, so Old Madam Shen had to give Qin Fenglan a look.

Qin Fenglan murmured in her heart, if you don’t want to be the bad guy, then let me speak.

But when he thought about the fact that he had spent all the money, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Yan'er, the situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion is really difficult right now, so can you be considerate of us and give us a little more time?"

"After all, we are a family. Even if our bones are broken, our tendons are still connected. Once the mansion has overcome this difficult time, I will definitely prepare the dowry for you."

Shen Zhidie watched the fun and agreed, "Yeah, you can't force someone to death if they don't have money, right?"

"Heh~" Shen Qingyan sneered, and said sarcastically, "Grace? Difficulties? I force you?"

"If you have any shame, you won't say such things!"

After Shen Qingyan finished speaking, she took a step forward and directly pulled out the flamboyant gold hairpin from Qin Fenglan's hair.

"This golden hairpin is probably worth a lot of money, right? How about using it to help you get through this difficult time?"

Qin Fenglan's hair spread out in an instant, and she looked like a madman.

Shen Yunjiao was surprised, "Sister, what are you doing?"

Shen Qingyan was not polite and pulled quickly with both hands. Shen Yunjiao felt a sharp pain passing through her earlobe, and then a pair of bloody filigree earrings appeared in Shen Qingyan's hand.

"This earring is more valuable than this hairpin. How dare you say that the Prime Minister's Mansion is facing difficulties?"

"Ahhh!"

Because the speed was too fast, the pain was felt half a beat late, and Shen Yunjiao let out a scream. Blood gushed out of her ears, and it was painful just to look at it.

Originally, Shen Zhidie wanted to show off and say a few righteous words, but now she didn't dare to say anything and quickly followed Feng Huirou to sit behind her.

Old Madam Shen almost passed out and had trouble breathing.

But I could only bear it, after all, she was the one who first suggested using a gentle tactic.

So he forced a smile and said, "Yan'er, I know you have resentment in your heart, but even if all these are added together, they can't completely fill the vacancy in the mansion."

Shen Qingyan's gaze slowly turned over. You only talked about them, but not you, right?

"Grandma is right. After all, these are worthless things to you."

Old Madam Shen frowned, feeling something was wrong.

As expected, Shen Qingyan's next words almost choked her to death.

"I remember there was a fine carved jade inlaid screen in my grandmother's room, which must be worth several thousand taels of silver."

"Oh, and there are also a lot of agate headpieces and valuable calligraphy and paintings, which should be worth a lot of money."

Listening to her careful consideration, Madam Shen tightly grasped her cane and tried her best to suppress her anger.

How did she know so clearly?

Shen Yunjiao's ear was still bleeding. The doctor had been summoned, but he had not arrived yet.

After hearing Shen Qingyan's words, she could no longer hold back and spoke angrily.

"Shen Qingyan, don't push your luck. You even dare to covet my grandmother's things!"

Shen Qingyan's cold eyes quickly swept towards her, and the latter suddenly felt that her ears hurt more than before, and her momentum weakened a little.

"I took back something that belonged to my mother. Is that coveting?"

"The screen and the paintings were part of my mother's dowry. When did they become yours?"

"Even my grandmother's life depended on the expensive medicines bought with my mother's money."

"And what you eat, wear and use now, all of them are paid for from my mother's dowry. You have no shame, but I can help you tear off this shame."

Shen Qingyan's eyes were cold, and every word she spoke was like an icy blade, piercing everyone's heart.

Especially those who feel guilty like Qin Fenglan.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control again, Old Madam Shen looked at the third wife, Min Shu, who had remained silent.

She had an even smaller presence than Feng Huirou from the second room. She had expected that things would not end well today, so she had deliberately not brought her six-year-old daughter with her, fearing that she would be frightened. She had not expected that she would still be pushed forward.

For the future of her two sons and daughter, Min Shu had to act as a peacemaker no matter how reluctant she was.

"Yan'er." Min Shu looked a little reserved, and said calmly, "You see, the old lady is in poor health, and the second young lady is injured. I know a little about the situation in the mansion, and it is indeed a bit difficult, so the dowry can be postponed for a while..."

"Third Aunt." Shen Qingyan interrupted her calmly, "As far as I know, the two brothers in your family are going to take the imperial examination soon, right? I guess it will cost a lot of money, but I wonder if the mansion will help the brothers to pay for it?"
