Chapter 605 Duck can never become a swan

Old master Ji's last hope was also diminished from his eyes, he looked at Old madam Shen and his face changed as he growled resentfully, " Yes, I tried to kill you but wasn't it because you refused to help your family? No matter what we are still your maternal family even if you are married off to the Shen family, you should have paid a little more attention to your Ji family! You knew all along that the Ji family was declining but did you care about us? No! Every time I would have to beg you for every little thing and only then will you help our family a little bit was I wrong in wanting what was the best for our family? If only you would have helped me a little without me begging for your help every d.a.m.n time then I wouldn't have been forced to do something like this! The eldest grandson of our Ji family is your grandnephew as well but did you care about when he was locked up in Yamen? No! I had to beg you three days before you helped me out …. The same could be said for the time when I got caught in a hitch and I needed you to help me get out of the trouble but ——even then, even then you made me grovel for a week before you agreed to help me!"

With his eyes glinting dangerously, he looked at Old madam Shen. " You could have helped me without me doing any of this but you didn't… yet you made me beg you, made me grovel at your knees, isn't it because you were so full of yourself that you wanted to see me beg?"

His words made Old madam Shen's eyes turn even colder as she sneered and kicked him off her leg. " You should be grateful that at least I was willing to help you, just how many people come at my door to beg me to give them this and that, have I ever done anything to help them? I only gave you my help because you begged me as my brother, if you were someone else, I wouldn't have even bothered myself with you."???e?????ѵ??. c??

Then she paused and snorted haughtily. " As for not helping the Ji family, don't forget that I am not the matriarch of the Ji family instead you are the Master of the Ji family, it's your responsibility to take care of the problems that arise in the Ji family, what does that it has to do with me? I helped you out of my goodwill, and nothing more. If I am the one who is responsible for solving everything, then why are you enjoying the respect and power as the Master of the Ji family? Just drop the t.i.tle and let me take over, what's your say on this? Would you have let me take the Ji family over?"

How could he have been willing to hand over the Ji family? Wouldn't it mean that he had to hand over all the revenues that he enjoyed and most importantly his family would have lost all the powers that they had if he had handed the family to Old madam Shen.

Seeing that he wasn't saying anything, Old madam Shen sneered. " You don't want to even hand over the t.i.tle of the Matriarch to me and yet you want me to take care of your family? Cousin, instead of coming to me while crying like a little crybaby, you should have dealt with the matters on your own but you didn't and yet you want to be the master of the Ji family, on what basis?"

She took three steps back and lightly added, " The reason the Ji family is declining now, is not because I didn't help you but because of your own incompetence. That's the only reason you were never able to revive the Ji family even after fighting for so long, after no matter how hard a duck tries it can never copy the grace of a Swan."

Before Old master Ji could say anything anymore, Shen Zizhen raised his hand and motioned for the Yamen officers to come inside. " These two are the direct culprits of poisoning my mother, officers. I would like to have a thorough investigation including the other Ji family as well, in case someone else was involved, please do take them under investigation as well."

The Yamen officers have heard all the hoo-hah that was going inside the banquet hall and thus they didn't need to question anyone and they all hurried inside to catch the Ji family's members.

Ji Shan who was dragged by the Yamen officers tried to fight them as she shouted, " Grandma please, please….I don't want to go Yamen, please save me! I promise that I will be a good person from now on, please I swear, don't send me away! Please, I am still too young to be sent to prison!"

'Oh so she does know that she was young,' thought the guests that were watching the scenes unfold in front of them.

" What are you begging for?" snapped Shen Tian. " You are the reason why my mother's health was endangered yet you have the audacity to ask for forgiveness? Are you out of your mind? You have committed a crime and you are going to be punished for it. And a good person? If you had even the slightest bit of humanity in your conscience you wouldn't have tried to harm my niece."

Ji Shan knew that there was nothing she could do, so she took in a sharp breath and shook her head in denial. " Please, please …" she was still a young girl and of course when faced with such a situation she was startled and scared.

On the other hand, Old master Ji didn't want to be taken away either, so he shouted desperately. " If you are going to drag me to prison then you might as well drag them to prison, they trespa.s.sed in my house, and stole a bunch of things that never belonged to them, what do you have to say for that? Huh?"
