The Shen Xin's household started packing up their luggage overnight, and what made others slap the table and shout with praise, was that before leaving, they unexpectedly forced Old Shen Furen to separate the family in front of the Shen family elders.

That day when Shen Xin and wife were summoned to the Palace, the dispute that Shen Lisa had with Old Shen Furen at the residence door, got into Shen Xin's ears and naturally he was unable to restrain his anger. This opportunity of hitting someone when they were down was used very well, and he did not even bother to save any face for the other. Luo Xue Yan hated that her eyes were blinded initially, and treated this entire family of dirty people, sincerely.

Even though Shen Xin's military power was seized, he was still daring. When he was obstinate, nine bulls would not be able to pull him back. The clan leader was unable to rush over, but there were clan members present. At his deathbed, the Old General Shen hoped that the entire family would live in harmony, but at the end it still collapsed and fell apart.

Old Shen Furen brought out the skills she had when she was a songstress, to claim more than half of Old General Shen's assets and lands. Shen Lisa did not obstruct this because for so many years they had not been easy to manage, and those shops and lands were no longer as satisfactory as before, and on the contrary they will be a drag to leave them by one's side. Moreover, they would soon be heading to the Xiao Chun City, thus these things were useless.

Shen Xin did not have a lack of money as the Emperor would usually bestow heaps of it to him. Old Shen Furen had initially thought that in the accounting books of the common fund, Shen Xin's money has long been cleaned out, and did not think that at the end, Shen Lisa found from somewhere, another accounting book no one knew. Inside, it clearly indicated all the money that Shen Xin had supplemented over the years to the public fund.

In front of the clan members, this could not be denied and in any case, Old Shen Furen had to vomit that out. Shen Lisa thought of it simple, no matter how much could be gotten back, even if Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan had no regards for these mere worldly possessions, it was good to nauseate Old Shen Furen.

Old Shen Furen was really so 'nauseated' that she fell ill, while Chen Rou Qiu was furious in her heart. Now that Ren Wan Yun did not care about this matters, she was the one managing the household and there was just not enough money. With the return of a portion of it back to Shen Xin, if the future was not as smooth as before, one fear that Old Shen Furen would take it out on her.

Shen Yue was also angry with them. These days she watched as Chen Rou Qiu became utterly exhausted due to the matter of money. Shen Yue was previously raised with an 'arrogant and holier than thou' temperament but now that had changed. Previously, she despised money matters, but now also wanted to fight for it. It was not good to say anything in front of the clan member, thus she looked at Shen Lisa and pretended to be worried, "One do not know when Fifth Younger Sister will be back this time. One heard that there is a shortage of suppliers at that Xiao Chun City, and it will bad if one was not able to eat or use good stuffs. It is better to bring more money along."

The words spoken had some ridicule insinuating that Shen Lisa was going to a place of suffering, but Shen Lisa only laughed gently, "Correct, but the prices in the Ding capital are very high, thus in the future without His Majesty's rewards, Second Older Sister must not spend so extravagantly like in the past." Her gaze landed on the bracelet on Shen Yue's wrist and smiled, "After all, Father will not be here to gift you a bracelet in the future."

Shen Yue was surprised for a moment, and looked at the bracelet on her wrist before her face flushed red. This was not other bracelet but one that Shen Xin was bestowed. Year after year Shen Xin would fill the common fund with the bestowments, and Shen Yue would pick out some jewellery. Who knew that when she said those words, Shen Lisa would be so straightforward to say that the bracelet that she was wearing was one of Shen Xin's things. This was slapping her face in public.
