Chapter 141 Domineering
Shen Yiran smiled and said, "It's me, for sure. There was toxin in my body before, and now that the toxin has been expelled, I have recovered to this state. Aunt Rong, you don't have to worry about me anymore."
"Oh my, that's great! Miss, you've made me so happy. Seeing you like this, I feel happier than eating honey."
When Shen Yiran saw Aunt Rong's genuine happiness for her, she felt a warm feeling in her heart.
She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, walked forward with a smile, and said softly: "Aunt Rong, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you in good health?"
Aunt Rong's eyes were filled with relief, and she quickly responded, "Miss, I am fine. Seeing you and Yun'er, I am so happy."
"Come in, come in and sit down. The young master knows you are coming, so he asked me to prepare some cakes. Come and have a taste."
"Wow, I want to eat it." Yun'er cheered, walked forward quickly, picked up a piece of cake and put it into her mouth, her face full of satisfaction.
"You are such an unruly girl! The young lady hasn't even eaten yet!" Aunt Rong quickly scolded her daughter.
"It's okay, let her eat. I told her not to feel restrained when there are no outsiders around." Shen Yiran's face was gentle and her tone was gentle.
"Miss, look at you, you have spoiled this girl to the point that she has become unruly." Aunt Rong looked anxious.
"Aunt Rong, I like Yun'er's personality. She is very natural." Shen Yiran looked at Yun'er's playful appearance. There were still pastry crumbs hanging at the corners of her mouth.
Aunt Rong turned to look at Yun'er and glared at her fiercely. But Yun'er ignored her and took up another piece of cake and stuffed it into her mouth, looking like a naughty child.
At this time, Shen Yunyu's clear voice came from outside the house: "Sister, you are here." Then, Shen Yiran saw her elder brother walking in with big strides with a happy look on his face.
"Brother." Shen Yiran stood up and greeted him. It was rare to see her brother so happy, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.
The brother and sister sat opposite each other and began to discuss how to ask Aunt Lan for their mother's dowry. "Last night, my father ordered Aunt Lan to hand over my mother's dowry. I think she has to
But with Aunt Lan's personality, she will definitely not hand it over so readily. "Shen Yunyu was a little worried.
Shen Yiran frowned slightly and said softly, "Brother, Aunt Lan has always been scheming. We must think of a good plan when we go to ask for the dowry this time."
The eldest brother Shen Yichen nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Yes, we need to be prepared and not let her take advantage of us. If she deliberately delays or makes excuses to shirk, how should we deal with it?"
Shen Yiran frowned slightly, as if she suddenly thought of something important, and asked, "Brother, where is mother's dowry book?"
Shen Yunyu lowered his head slightly, thought for a moment and then said slowly: "In my opinion, the dowry book should be with Aunt Lan.
After my mother passed away, Aunt Lan took charge of many affairs in the mansion, and this dowry book is very likely to have fallen into her hands."
After hearing what his elder brother said, Shen Yiran's face became more solemn, and he said worriedly: "If we can't produce mother's dowry book, Auntie Lan will definitely not return mother's dowry in full. Auntie Lan has always been greedy and selfish. Without the dowry book as proof, she will definitely make excuses in every possible way."
When Shen Yunyu heard his sister say this, his previous happy mood suddenly disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by heavy worry.
He sighed and said, "What should we do? Without the dowry book, it will be very difficult for us to get back our mother's dowry."
The two of them fell into deep thought, and the air seemed to freeze.
Just when the two of them were at a loss, Aunt Rong slowly walked in. She was holding a dowry book in her hand, with a solemn look on her face.
Upon seeing this, the brother and sister were stunned, their eyes fixed on the booklet in Aunt Rong's hand.
Aunt Rong walked up to them, her hands trembling slightly, and handed the dowry book to Shen Yiran, saying with a choked voice: "Miss, Master, this is the dowry book that Madam entrusted to me for safekeeping. For so many years, I have been guarding it carefully, living up to Madam's instructions, and finally completing the task."
Rong Da Niang's eyes were slightly red, tears welled up in them. She recalled the past and said slowly: "Over the years, the old servants in the Shen Mansion were often bullied by Aunt Lan. She relied on the master's favor to make things difficult for us old people around the lady.
But I have never thought of giving up. The motivation for me to persevere is to complete what my wife asked me to do before she died. My wife has been so kind to me. Even if I have suffered a lot, I must protect her dowry book and hand it over to you intactly. "
Shen Yiran held the dowry book tightly, tears of emotion flashing in her eyes.
She looked at Aunt Rong and said firmly, "Aunt Rong, you have worked hard over the years. Now that we have this dowry book, we will be able to get our mother's dowry back smoothly. Aunt Lan's evil deeds should also come to an end."
Shen Yunyu also stood up and thanked Aunt Rong solemnly: "Aunt Rong, we admire your loyalty and perseverance. We will not let Aunt Lan bully you again in the future."
Rong looked at the brother and sister with a look of relief in her eyes. She gently wiped the tears from her eyes and said, "Miss, Master, as long as I can do my part for Madam, it is worth it for me to suffer any more.
Now that we have this dowry book, we must plan carefully and make sure to get the lady's dowry back smoothly."
Shen Yiran nodded slightly, her eyes revealing determination and courage. "Aunt Rong is right, we can't let our guard down. Aunt Lan will never give in easily, we must be fully prepared."
She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then continued, "Brother, we can first test Aunt Lan's attitude and see what she is planning. If she insists on not handing over the dowry, we can think of other ways."
Shen Yiran and Shen Yunyu sorted out their thoughts, took the dowry book, and walked resolutely towards Aunt Lan's residence.
Arriving at Aunt Lan's courtyard, I saw Aunt Lan leisurely sitting in the living room drinking tea. Seeing the brother and sister coming, Aunt Lan's face was instantly filled with surprise, and her eyes were fixed on Shen Yiran.
She couldn't help but wonder in her heart: Why does this girl look so much like the dead woman? At this time, Aunt Lan recalled the day when they went to enjoy the flowers. Qiao'er came back from the palace and said that the ugly Shen Yiran had become slimmer and more beautiful. She didn't think much of it at the time, but she was really amazed when she saw her today.
Aunt Lan narrowed her eyes slightly and asked tentatively, "Who is this girl?"
Shen Yiran's lips curled up slightly, but there was no smile in her eyes. She said in a cold voice, "Auntie Lan, don't you recognize me?"
Aunt Lan was slightly startled. Although she was somewhat prepared in her heart, she could not connect the radiant and elegant woman in front of her with Shen Yiran, whom she once regarded as an ugly monster.
She secretly wondered who had cured the poison in this bitch's body? Would she already know that she was the one who poisoned her?
