Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Chapter 80: Blocked from retreating, no chance of recovery

Before Ji Qingyuan could open her mouth, the people outside started to make a commotion again!

"Shen Chengjing!"

"Shen Chengjing is here!"

I saw Shen Chengjing being pushed towards this side by several servants from the Ji mansion.

"Shen Chengjing, pay me back!"

Shen Chengjing lowered his head and was being pulled around by someone. He was already in a miserable state, and now he looked even more like a dog that had lost its home.

"Everyone, please listen to me." Ji Cheng also came to the gate of the mansion to calm everyone's emotions.

When everyone saw County Magistrate Ji, they immediately quieted down.

"I have understood the situation you all are talking about, and I have also detained Shen Chengjing to give everyone an explanation! He will not default on any debts he owes, and will pay you back in full. Please give me some time."

"Since County Magistrate Ji has said so, we believe that County Magistrate Ji will definitely give us a satisfactory answer."

"Yes, yes!"

"Then let's go back and wait for news."

Then everyone dispersed.

Geng and Ji Qingyuan got off the carriage.

Ji Cheng looked at the mother and daughter with a murderous look in his eyes.

"Master..." Geng called out tremblingly.

"Everyone, get in! Don't embarrass yourself here!" Ji Cheng stepped into the mansion first.

Geng glared at Ji Qingyuan fiercely and strode after Ji Cheng.

Ji Qingyuan hurriedly walked up to Shen Chengjing and said, "My husband, what's going on? Why are there so many people coming to collect debts?"

Shen Chengjing was in a dishevel at this time, his face was stained with sweat, and his hair and clothes were messy.

Facing Ji Qingyuan's questioning, he gritted his teeth and said nothing.

He was caught by Ji Cheng!

He had caused such a big mess that he had no way to solve it, so he wanted to run away first and leave the mess to the people in the Ji family to clean up.

Unfortunately, he didn’t run away!

What he didn't know was that someone had been following him. How could he escape so easily?

"Shen Chengjing! Say something!" Ji Qingyuan's voice rose several degrees.

"Yuan'er, please save me! I was really cheated! That traveling merchant was fake. He tricked me into buying so many goods, but he disappeared. I have no way to pay such a huge amount of money now. They are coming to me with the receipts to ask for money!"

Ji Qingyuan was so angry that her chest hurt and her breathing became unstable. She pointed at Shen Chengjing and cursed, "Shen Chengjing, you idiot! I told you that you were a liar, but you didn't believe me! How are you going to end this huge mess?"

"Yuan'er, the Ji family will definitely be able to come up with that much money! Go and ask your mother..."

"Pah!" Ji Qingyuan slapped Shen Chengjing on the face, "How dare you ask me to beg my mother!"

"Miss, son-in-law, the master wants you to go in immediately!" The steward came out and delivered the message.

Ji Qingyuan's heart tightened, and her little face was full of fear.

Shen Chengjing had no choice but to be forced inside.

When the two arrived at the front yard, they saw Geng already kneeling in the yard.

Ji Qingyuan also hurried over and knelt beside Geng.

Geng suddenly reached out and pushed Ji Qingyuan hard, "Get out! Don't get close to me!"

"Mother, I'm sorry." Ji Qingyuan apologized while crying.

Geng lost all his rationality and started fighting with Ji Qingyuan.

"You debt collector! Are you crazy for looking for such a loser? You said he would achieve great things in the future, but what can he achieve? Is he cheating you? You see, you were cheated and deceived by him!"

"Look at the life you're living now! You're even causing trouble for your own parents! I gave birth to you and raised you, is this how you repay me? If I had known you were such a disaster, I would have thrown you into a cesspool and drowned you when you were a child!"

"Shut up!" Ji Cheng yelled impatiently.

Geng stopped, but tears continued to flow out.

"Shen Chengjing, do you have anything else to say?" Ji Cheng looked at Shen Chengjing and asked angrily.

"Father-in-law, I was really cheated! Someone wanted to frame me and set a trap for me! I also wanted to make more money and give Yuaner a better life." Shen Chengjing hurriedly explained.

"So you admit all those things?"

"Father-in-law, please help me, I am penniless!" Shen Chengjing crawled over and grabbed Ji Cheng's clothes and begged.

Ji Cheng kicked him out!

Shen Chengjing no longer cared about his face at this time and crawled over again.

"In Huaiyang, you dared to buy so many goods and sell them to a peddler whose background you didn't know, Shen Chengjing, you don't just want to give Yuan'er a good life, you are just too ambitious!"

"Father-in-law, I know I was wrong! Father-in-law, please help me this time! I will be down-to-earth in the future! I will never dare to have such wishful thinking again!"

"You have to bear all the consequences of your own actions!" Ji Cheng was not moved at all.

Shen Chengjing looked at Ji Qingyuan. Geng had beaten her to the point where she collapsed on the ground and could not speak.

"Father-in-law, it is true that I caused the disaster, but I am your son-in-law. The shop I opened was also funded by my mother-in-law, and the new mansion I live in was also bought by the Ji family. They thought I was the son-in-law of the Ji family. Outsiders did not regard us as two families, so they came to the Ji family with the receipts to ask for money."

"You!" Ji Cheng was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Shen Chengjing, do you still have any shame?" Geng shouted.

"Father-in-law, you are the governor of a city, and you were sent directly by the emperor to Huaiyang to assist the prince. You are highly valued by the prince. This matter cannot affect your reputation! You help me, and you are also helping yourself." Shen Chengjing said fearlessly.

Ji Cheng raised his leg and kicked Shen Chengjing hard in the chest again.

There is no other solution to this matter.

He could only grit his teeth and accept it.

Who made him get involved with a son-in-law of such a scumbag!

……

Ji Chuhe was drinking tea and listening to a book in a teahouse in the city.

The storyteller was really well-informed, and he was talking excitedly on the stage about how Shen Chengjing was cheated.

The people in the audience burst into cheers from time to time.

"Miss, will Magistrate Ji really swallow this loss?" Mianzhu asked curiously.

"This matter seems to have caused quite a stir, but in fact, after it is dealt with, Shen Chengjing doesn't need to pay much." Ji Chuhe responded calmly.

"Miss, Shen Chengjing bought so many goods at once. These alone are a huge amount of money!" Mianzhu was puzzled.

"Silly girl, can you still suffer this loss in silence when County Magistrate Ji comes forward? He will definitely discuss with these shopkeepers to return the goods. After the goods are returned, the worst that can happen is that they will compensate for some losses. And he will also let Shen Chengjing bear most of the responsibility for these losses."

"We planned this event without hurting Shen Chengjing!" Mianzhu felt a little regretful.

Ji Chuhe smiled and didn't explain to Mianzhu any further.

She had already guessed that Shen Chengjing wanted to leave Huaiyang.

She wouldn't give him the chance to leave Huaiyang.

Even if he doesn't have the same opportunities as in his previous life, he won't be careless.

In order to make money, Shen Chengjing made a mess of the accounts in the shop. He ran away with the money, leaving the mess behind for the Ji family to clean up.

Things have gotten to this point this time, there is no way Ji Cheng wouldn’t check the shop’s accounts.

Shen Chengjing's methods are exposed.

After the Ji Mansion, they will never give him any financial support. He is still heavily in debt, and so many eyes are staring at him. Let alone leaving Huaiyang, he can't even get out of the city gate!
