Chapter 140 How to break the situation
"Find an opportunity to chat with Feicui and tell her that I'm in a good mood recently and that I once found a white jade pendant..."
Jinzhu was stunned for a few seconds: "Miss? This is..."
Shen Shuyi gently teased the cricket in the jar, her almond-shaped eyes cold and clear.
"Wait a few days, Qin Xuerong will definitely send someone to Yunshu Garden to inquire about the news."
Qin Xuerong is not stupid. Although she has lived in the inner house for a long time, she is very smart. So many things have happened during this period, and everything is aimed at her children.
When she has time, she will definitely suspect her. In that case, she might as well give her some evidence.
Instead of waiting passively, it is better to prepare early.
"I understand!" Jinzhu nodded, feeling a little angry at Feicui for not fighting back.

Shen Shuyi looked at the time and said in a deep voice, "Change your clothes and send someone to tell him I want to see my father."
A quarter of an hour later, Shen Shuyi, wearing a plain snow-blue skirt and carrying a food box, was waiting outside Shen Jingchuan's study.
After a while, Shen Jingchuan's servant came running over: "Second Miss, the master invites you in."
"Thank you."
After Shen Shuyi expressed his thanks, he let the servant lead the way with a lantern and walked to Shen Jingchuan's study at a leisurely pace.
At this moment, in the study room.
The candle on the table was on, and the book was open, but it had obviously not been touched for a long time.
"Why are you here?" Shen Jingchuan was still in a bad mood and his tone was not very good.
It’s not just because of such a large sum of money, but also because the Shen family has offended the three major families, Prince Duan, the Chai family, and the Wang family, in succession in just a few days!
One can imagine how difficult his days will be.
Shen Shuyi put the food box aside and said softly, "Shuyi guessed that Daddy was in a bad mood and might not have much appetite, so I sent some midnight snacks over."
Hearing this, Shen Jingchuan sighed, looked at her and said, "You are thoughtful."
It would be great if Sister Zhen and the others were as worry-free as Shuyi.
"Dad, there may be a way to break the impasse in the Chai family's affairs." Shen Shuyi said in a gentle voice.
Upon hearing this, Shen Jingchuan's eyes lit up a little, and he looked at her and said, "Tell me about it."
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "My daughter doesn't know much about these things in the officialdom. I just thought that maybe my eldest brother would have a way."
Shen Shuyi looked at Shen Jingchuan with a smile, and met the surprise and the sudden resistance in his eyes without any haste.
"Brother Han..."
Shen Jingchuan frowned as if he wanted to say something, and then he heard Shen Shuyi say again: "Didn't Daddy promise Shuyi that he would accompany Shuyi to visit brother? Now that something happened at home, it's better to listen to brother's opinion."
Shen Jingchuan still frowned and said nothing. Shen Shuyi said again: "Dad, you can't write two Shen characters with one stroke. If the Shen family is not doing well, my brother's life will not be easy. Besides, he values friendship the most. If there is a way, he will not sit idly by."
Shen Jingchuan was finally persuaded by Shen Shuyi, and he sighed and said, "Well, Dad will accompany you on this trip!"
Shen Shuyi curled his eyes and said affectionately: "I know that Dad loves me the most!"
Shen Jingchuan shook his head: "You are just causing trouble. You knew I was in a bad mood, but you still insisted on going on this trip!"
Having said that, Shen Shuyi knew in her heart that Shen Jingchuan must have some expectations as well.
After all, things have reached a dead end and no one wants to sit and wait for death.
Be it out of desperation or blind credulity, he always wants to give it a try.
Shen Shuyi followed Shen Jingchuan, thinking that he must let Shen Jingchuan know that even if his brother became a disabled person, he was still useful.
People are profit-seeking by nature, and she didn't think that the Shen family had much affection for her and her siblings.

Here, Shen Shuyi and Shen Jingchuan walked towards Shu Hanyuan.
Qin Xuerong got the news.
"What did you say? The master actually accompanied that bastard to Shuhan Garden at this time?" Qin Xuerong's lips trembled with anger, and her eyes were bloodshot.
Nanny Wang lowered her head and said, "It's absolutely true!"
Qin Xuerong swept the teacup in front of her to the ground: "This bastard! What on earth does she want to do!"
"Madam, please calm down. Even if she has the ability to persuade the master, the fact is that the eldest young master is a useless person. He can never be compared with the second young master." Cuizhu hurriedly comforted him in a gentle voice.
That’s right, these words hit Qin Xuerong’s heart.
What she feared most was that Shen Jingan and Shen Jinglin would get into trouble one after another, causing Shen Jingchuan to think that her two sons were useless and then think of that bastard Shen Shuhan.
But Cuizhu was right, he was already a useless man, no matter what, he could never surpass Ang'er.
Qin Xuerong lowered her eyes, let out a breath, and asked, "I asked you to deliver the message to the Qin Mansion. Have you delivered it?"
Nanny Wang said quickly, "She has. The old lady said she will come over when she has time in the next two days. If this is the case, the eldest lady will probably have to go back home."
Thinking of this, Qin Xuerong frowned again. After a while, she said quietly, "It's good that she's back. Sister Yu has always been steady. I feel relieved when she comes back."
"Then the master..."
Qin Xuerong said coldly: "Can you stop the master from going? When the master comes out of Shuhanyuan, send someone to report immediately, don't let the master be intercepted by that bitch Aunt Wu!"
In the past few days, accidents have happened one after another.
The master never treated her well. He doted on Aunt Wu and stayed at her house every night.

Shuhan Garden.
When Shen Jingchuan and Shen Shuyi arrived, Shen Shuhan was still awake.
The silent boy was wearing a navy blue gown and leaning on a wooden recliner placed by the window, facing the moonlight.
Shen Shuyi couldn't help but take a look at his complexion, and his eyes softened.
Her hard work these days was finally not in vain.
At least this time, it seems that my brother's condition is much better than before.
His clothes and hair were neat and tidy, and his face had a little more flesh than before. Although he was still thin and had scars that had not yet faded, at least...
At least she could see some of his true self in him.
Shen Jingchuan had been feeling somewhat regretful ever since he entered Shuhan Garden, especially when facing his son Shen Shuhan, he was speechless for a long time.
"Brother, Dad and I are here to see you." Shen Shuyi spoke first.
Shen Shuhan slowly turned his head and looked at the two of them. His gaze paused on Shen Shuyi's face for a few seconds, then he looked at Shen Jingchuan and said softly, "Dad, Shuyi."
The boy's voice was no longer hoarse, but clear and clean, like a piece of jade being struck down.
Shen Jingchuan cleared his throat and asked uncomfortably: "How are your injuries recovering? Are you fully recovered?"
"Thank you for your concern, father. I am fine now."
After that, the father and son sat in silence, and the atmosphere became inexplicably awkward.
But Shen Shuyi could see that the embarrassment was mainly caused by Shen Jingchuan, and Shen Shuhan seemed to have been used to it long ago.
Shen Shuyi said in a gentle voice: "I came here today because I have something to ask my brother."
After that, Shen Shuyi briefly recounted the grudge between Shen Jingan and Chai Bin, as well as the Chai family's visit.
After a pause, she looked directly at Shen Shuhan with her almond-shaped eyes and said slowly: "Brother, do you have any way to break the impasse in this matter?"
