The Incense Monopoly Order

Chapter 95 She can live a good life

"Thank you, Madam Shang Er." Chen Jin was forced to break his spine.

Shang Zishu waved her hand generously: "You're welcome, I'm a soft-hearted and kind person."

"Take Chen Jin away." Clan leader Chen hoped that things would be settled quickly.

No one left. About a quarter of an hour later, the dying Chen Jin was brought up. His snow-white undershirt was stained with blood, and there was a whip mark so deep that the bone was visible.

Seeing that Chen Jin exhaled more than he inhaled, Shang Mingshu was in awe of the Chen family rules.

The farce came to an end with Chen Jin being punished. Shang Zishu left with Shang Jinliang, and Chen Che returned home with Mrs. Chen.

"How could you act so rashly?" Shang Jinliang scolded Shang Zishu as soon as he got home. "You know, if your mother and your sister hadn't arrived in time, that's the Chen family's territory, and they can turn black into white!"

Shang Jinliang was very angry. Shang Zishu thought the matter was too simple. If Shang Mingshu had not suppressed him with force today, even if Clan Leader Chen saw the fake tea recipe, he would have turned it into the real Longjing tea recipe. Then Shang Zishu and Chen Che would have been unable to defend themselves.

Shang Zishu was not convinced about this: "Chen Che and I have repeatedly discussed this, and we have our people in the Chen clan."

If they hadn't had someone, how could they have informed Shang Mingshu so quickly? If they hadn't had someone, who would have challenged Chief Chen? Chief Chen had long been at odds with his superiors.

"Bang!" Shang Jinliang slammed the table. "You don't understand anything at all! No matter how fierce the internal fighting among the Chen family is, they are all from the same clan, and you are just an outsider! They are willing to lend a hand to muddy the waters, but whether they will truly stand on your side depends on how the situation develops.

You had a plan long ago, so you should have informed me. I won't be going to the south of the city today. If it weren't for your sister's outstanding martial arts, I wouldn't be able to get back. Do you think these people would turn against you and help you?"

Shang Zishu was so frightened that she trembled. Xiao Yu couldn't bear to watch and hugged Shang Zishu to block Shang Jinliang's sight. "Why are you so fierce and vicious? Today's matter is over. Although Zishu made some mistakes, she is still young after all. What can you do by explaining the pros and cons in a gentle voice?"

"You..." Shang Jinliang pointed at Xiao Yu. When he saw Xiao Yu, he thought of Mu Xiaoniang and he couldn't help feeling short of breath.

"Dad, now that things have come to this, I am also concerned about your busy work schedule and don't want to burden you any further." Shang Mingshu persuaded, and Shang Zishu nodded enthusiastically as she spoke. "Besides, my daughter is skilled in martial arts, and I know that with my daughter here, even if you can't make it, I won't let you suffer any loss."

"Yes, that's right!" Shang Zishu nodded vigorously. She really didn't rely on her father at all. She had a younger sister!
Shang Jinliang obviously also understood what Shang Zishu had not said. The scene of the whole family being plotted against and relying on Shang Mingshu to save the situation came to his mind again, and he became more and more ashamed to be in front of Shang Mingshu.

"Alright, Zishu and Mingshu are grown up now." Xiao Yu gave Shang Jinliang a way out. "They are now at the age of marriage and will soon have to take on the responsibility of supporting the family. If we don't teach them how to deal with others, can you and I still give them dowries and watch over them from the sidelines?"

"Puchi." Shang Zishu couldn't help laughing when the thought of her father becoming her dowry appeared in her mind.

Xiao Yu caught a glimpse of Shang Jinliang's extremely smelly face and glanced at Shang Zishu with disapproval: "You two should go back to your rooms and rest."

Shang Zishu quickly grabbed Shang Mingshu's hand and ran away.

Shang Zishu only breathed a sigh of relief after running out of Shang Jinliang's sight.

"Why did you attack Chen Jin?" Shang Mingshu guessed that there must be a reason she didn't know.

"Ever since I got engaged to Chen Che, he's been pestering me." Shang Zishu was furious when she mentioned it. "Several times, he said something that seemed to make sense, intentionally or unintentionally causing Chen Che to become suspicious of me."

"Did Chen Che suspect you?"

Shang Zishu suddenly pursed her lips and smiled, finally showing some of the shyness and sweetness of a lady: "That's not the case..."

Because Chen Che had never pressed the issue, Shang Zishu was unsure what Chen Che was thinking, whether he was holding it in, so she asked directly, asking Chen Che why he didn't doubt it. Chen Che was very confident at the time: "You won't fall for him."

"Why?"

"He's ugly."

Thinking back now, Shang Zishu couldn't help laughing out loud. Chen Che actually thought that she was attracted to him just for his looks. Although Chen Jin was not as good as Chen Che, he was still a handsome man.

Shang Mingshu looked at her with an unfathomable gaze.

Uncomfortable with her sister's gaze, she cleared her throat and said, "He's so annoying. He even tried to touch me once. Shouldn't I teach him a lesson?"

God knows how relieved she felt when she saw Chen Jin being beaten to pieces.

Shang Mingshu nodded without saying a word.

Facing Shang Jinliang's self-righteous attitude, Shang Zishu felt inexplicably uneasy at this moment: "Do you also think I'm reckless?"

Ever since Mu Xiaoniang and Wen Yan jointly framed her, Shang Zishu's admiration for Shang Mingshu has been like oil in a fire, boiling hot.

"Second sister, you did a great job." Shang Mingshu praised generously.

Shang Zishu will marry far away in the future. After she returns this time, Chen will come to propose marriage, and then she will get married. At the latest, she will marry to Hangzhou City next year, so she must learn to be independent.

"I originally wanted to ask you for advice." Shang Zishu was relieved to receive the affirmation and became more confident. "But I can't rely on you for the rest of my life and let you worry about me when you are away. I want you to know that I can deal with evil spirits."

This time she is looking for Shang Mingshu, what about the future?

It was she who chose Chen Che, and she had to lead the battle against the Chen family.

She also wanted to reassure Shang Mingshu. This time she conspired with Chen Che to prove herself, and also because Shang Mingshu was still there. If she made any mistakes, she believed that Shang Mingshu would help her make up for it.

"Second sister, you will live a wonderful life." Shang Mingshu had never worried about Shang Zishu. She was insightful and efficient. Shang Mingshu didn't say anything too much to remind her to be careful of Chen Jin. She could think of it.

"I also think I can live a good life." Shang Zishu smiled at Shang Mingshu with her eyes curved.

After spending the past few days with Chen Che, especially this time when they teamed up to harm Chen Jin, Shang Zishu felt that she and Chen Che had become closer.

Chen Che likes to make wine. She accompanies him in wine tasting and gives him some of her own wonderful ideas. Chen Che never thinks that she doesn't understand and never takes it lightly. He is even willing to try them no matter how outrageous they are.

Just for this reason, Shang Zishu became more and more satisfied with Chen Che. In the past, she always didn't know what her ideal husband looked like. She said that she wanted to find someone like Du Zhong, but in fact she had never been attracted to Du Zhong. Now, seeing Chen Che every day, she felt that the vague ideal husband seemed to gradually take shape.

It is overlapping with Chen Che little by little.

"It's a pity that I won't see Chen Jin receive the penalty next time." Shang Zishu looked regretful.

Chen Jin received ten lashes and would need to rest for at least ten days to half a month, and they would set off for home the day after tomorrow.
