CHAPTER 361: CHAPTER 183: A COLD SHOWER OUT OF NOWHERE (PART 2)

"I don’t know," Shi Fengju said, "Liu Ya mentioned that Cui Zhu, who serves my elder sister, came with urgent news! You go back to sleep, I’ll go check on it."

"I’ll come with you!" Sang Wan immediately turned over and sat up. Hearing it was about Shi Yumei, how could Sang Wan peacefully sleep? Otherwise, Shi Yumei would complain to their mother-in-law again, saying she didn’t care for her own husband, letting him get up while she slept comfortably!

Shi Fengju smiled helplessly, "Alright! Put on some more clothes, don’t catch a cold!"

"Hmm!" Sang Wan replied and quickly dressed herself in her inner wear, tidying up her hair as well.

Both of them got dressed properly and came out, where Cui Zhu was seen with tearful eyes, brimming with tears, struggling to speak.

"Take your time, what exactly happened?" Sang Wan was startled and quickly took Cui Zhu’s hand.

"Madam!" Cui Zhu finally burst into tears, sobbing, "Young master! Please go check on our madam! Master, he... He ordered the banana garden’s gate to be shut, not allowing madam to enter, and now she’s still standing outside!"

"What!" Shi Fengju was furious enough to jump up, and exclaimed harshly, "Is that so? What exactly happened tonight?"

"My husband!" Sang Wan quickly said gently, "Don’t panic! Let’s go now, and we can listen to Cui Zhu’s explanation on the way! It’s so cold, we can’t let elder sister freeze out there!"

Shi Fengju huffed, commanded someone to fetch cloaks, and hurriedly went with Sang Wan, Cui Zhu, Liu Ya, and others. Sang Wan sternly instructed Xingzhi, "Tell everyone, no one is allowed to speak of this incident, not even half a word to the lady of the house!"

Xingzhi quickly agreed and went to instruct everyone.

Shi Fengju also regained his composure; this incident shouldn’t blow up, otherwise elder sister would become a laughingstock. He then chose a secluded path through the garden.

"Madam! Madam!" Approaching the banana garden, Cui Zhu hurriedly ran ahead, supporting the dazed Shi Yumei standing there.

"You’re here!" Shi Yumei looked up blankly, her eyes filled with tears as she watched Shi Fengju and Sang Wan approach, quickly blinking away her tears.

"Elder sister!" Shi Fengju’s face was livid as he gently patted Shi Yumei’s shoulder.

Sang Wan quickly handed a hand warmer to Shi Yumei, "It’s quite windy outside, did you get cold, elder sister?"

Shi Yumei shook her head gently, looking at Sang Wan, seemingly unsure of what to say.

"Don’t be afraid! We’re at our home, how dare he act like this, does he think the Shi family is dead!" Shi Fengju said bitterly.

Shi Yumei hurriedly said, "Tsk tsk, don’t speak such inauspicious words during the New Year!"

Shi Fengju turned and instructed Liu Ya, "Go find a ladder, be careful not to let others see!"

"Yes, young master!" Liu Ya left with a matron.

"What are you going to do!" Shi Yumei was startled.

Shi Fengju coldly said, "Of course, to settle accounts with him!" He wasn’t interested in knocking when the other party had locked the door. A young master of the Shi family was not reduced to begging others to open the door!

Shi Yumei moved her lips, staring dumbfounded.

Sang Wan wasn’t surprised, knowing Shi Fengju’s temperament; her brother-in-law was in for trouble!

"Young master, the ladder is here!" Soon, Liu Ya and the matron came back, the matron carrying a bamboo ladder.

"Put it here!" Shi Fengju pointed to the base of the wall, steadied the ladder, and then climbed up.

"Fengju, let the servants do it, it’s dangerous!" Shi Yumei anxiously grabbed him.

"It’s okay!" Shi Fengju said, "It’s not that high, I’ll be careful."

Sang Wan also said "Be careful," ordering someone to steady the ladder, watching as Shi Fengju climbed to the top of the wall, lifting the ladder up to him. Shi Fengju took it, placed it inside the yard, and climbed down. Soon after, he opened the yard gate from inside.

"Miss Wan, you go back and rest, I’ll handle things here, quickly go back, you need to get up early tomorrow!" Shi Fengju gently told Sang Wan.

Sang Wan knew she shouldn’t be there while he reprimanded Ren Zhixian, and nodded, "Then I’ll go back first, today is still the New Year after all, my husband, don’t get too angry!" Not to cause a huge scene and lose face.

"Rest assured!" Shi Fengju nodded to her, ordering Liu Ya and others to accompany her back.

Liu Ya felt a little regret inside; she actually wanted to stay and watch the excitement, too bad!

"Elder sister, you go to the next room and stay there. No matter what I do, don’t interfere!" Shi Fengju’s expression darkened, speaking coldly.

This side of Shi Fengju made Shi Yumei feel somewhat unfamiliar and involuntarily a bit frightened, nodding and went with Cui Zhu.

Shi Fengju ordered a basin of cold water, carried it and kicked open Ren Zhixian’s room door, splashing the cold water onto the bed, and then carelessly threw the basin on the carpet.

"Ah!" Suddenly splashed with cold water in a deep sleep, Cui Bao screamed sharply, while Ren Zhixian also shivered sharply, yelling furiously, "Who! Who dares!"

The room’s light was turned on by the maid. Shi Fengju stood in front of the bed and coldly said, "Enjoying the comfort of a high bed and soft pillow, does dear brother-in-law know where my sister is now?"

"Ah!" Cui Bao, realizing the man standing before her was the young master, panicked and subconsciously crossed her arms around her body, screaming while frantically pulling the brocade quilt around her. At this moment, the brocade quilt was already soaked with the cold water, leaving Cui Bao miserably complaining.

"It’s you! Get out! Get out!" Ren Zhixian furiously shouted, still shielding Cui Bao as if afraid she would lose out by being seen by Shi Fengju.

Shi Fengju didn’t consider a mere servant worth his concern, not even sparing a glance at Cui Bao but focusing on Ren Zhixian with a cold smile, "Get out? Are you calling me? You are on Shi family’s grounds, ordering me to leave? Brother-in-law, are you mistaken!"
