went back to the mansion.
Chunyun replaced more than half of the servants in the mansion, even the housekeeper. She is as gentle as water, but she is swift and resolute in her actions.
Shen Pheasant went to Shen Hua's courtyard.
The brothers and sisters didn't know what they said, and Shen Hua's eyes were red.
"Young master."
Yi Cui comes in from the outside.
"There is news from the gatehouse. The elders of the Shen family are leading the elders of the Shen family to seek an audience."
Shen Zhi's eyes were slightly cold.
"Don't let A Niang come forward."
"Take people to the main hall, I'll go there.
"Let Brother Cui borrow the Jiqing that is beside him and use it."
When he left, Shen Hua subconsciously followed a few steps, and finally stamped her feet and secretly wiped her tears.
Shen Zhi just entered the main hall. His face was unclear.
"Is the clan boss here to intercede?"
"no."
"The clan elders are fighting like this, is it..."
His eyes scan around.
"What's the meaning?"
The Shen family never thought that Shen Zhi would ask so directly.
He pretended to mourn: "Shen Pheasant."
"We also know what happened today, Shen Wei did something wrong! Son, we are not here to defend him."
"He should be punished for his mistakes. Even if my heart hurts, I know karma."
The Shen family's old voice changed.
"But I really love you brothers and sisters. How is Yangyang doing now? Your mother is soft-tempered. Orphans and widows, you have to focus on studying after all, and you can't care too much. How can you live without a pillar in the family? I This old bone just wants to help you with hard work. From now on, there will always be someone to support you."
That's really euphemistic.
Shen Pheasant held back.
"Don't worry! If you are afraid that we will have a hard time, why don't you go ahead and redeem your son's money back."
"Look at your birthright, maybe we will still harm you."
Shen Clan Elder: "You, don't live with us."
"Yeah, we all grew up watching you."
"Uncle, I love you too."
Shen Zhi still smiled: "This is true for close relatives, let alone outsiders."
"The elders don't have to say high-sounding words. If you want to grab the embroidery workshop, you can say it. Today, I put the words down. This is absolutely impossible."
"The embroidery workshop is my mother's hard work, and no one can take it away."
These words made the people who came over very popular.
"What are you talking about? What about your mother! The surname of Xiufang is Shen."
"If you go into an official career in the future, who will take care of the embroidery workshop?"
Even Qing didn’t know when it came.
"Young Master Shen."
Jing Qing interrupted as if embarrassed: "Why does everyone in the house let everyone in? A group of old men who rely on their elders to sell their elders are arguing that our father is taking a lunch break."
"The subordinate feels that it is better to drive out."
Shen Clan Elder:? ? ?
He didn't dare to provoke Cui Yun after all.
"This... is far away from Mr. Cui's courtyard."
The face turned cold: "You mean that our master has slandered you?"
"No... dare not."
Then, a bunch of people really got kicked out.
Shen’s house was full of spectators. They all froze.
That is, Qing clapped his hands and threw the broom on the ground.
"Magistrate Liu has repeatedly invited our grandfather to live in Liu's house. He is here just to make friends with Mr. Shen. Naturally, some people are not allowed to take themselves too seriously and come to get Joe."
His voice suddenly increased: "More than a dozen people! Entering the house rashly! Why don't the whole family move here and live in Mingqian! I don't know what An's heart is, but I am ashamed to be an elder here? This kind of thing happened, Mr. Shen After all, they are still living well now, but the elders of the Shen family led a group of people to compete for the family property, it would be rather ugly."
Spectator:? ? ?
These people are really not ashamed.
——
Into the night.
Inside the prison, it was damp and dark, with mottled stains and bloodstains on the pitted walls, and the hanging oil lamps glowing faintly.
With a sound of '噗味', two lamps went out.
Shen Zhi went to the cell.
When he arrived, Shen Wei was already huddled in a corner, his whole body convulsed by the pain.
Seeing him coming, Shen Hewen eagerly stretched out his hand through the wooden door.
"Brother Pheasant, are you here to save us?"
"I knew you were a good boy."
"We are a family after all. There is no overnight feud. After all, Shen Wei is going to marry, and besides, she is fine now."
Seeing him coming, tears flashed in Shen Wei's eyes.
"When can I go out?"
In his opinion, nothing happened to Shen Wei. Xue Miaoyan was bought with money at the beginning, and then he opened up the relationship and issued a fake contract of sale.
Shen Zhi was dressed in brocade robes, scholarly but also noble, just looking at Shen Wei who was chained to his ankles and wearing a prison uniform, he didn't speak.
The prisoners in the cell are all unkempt. There was an unspeakably ugly and filthy smell in the air.
"Father just lost his mind for a while. Be obedient and explain to your mother and me."
Shen Zhi gave a soothing smile.
"My son can come here, it is for the sake of Mr. Cui. After all, I can't stay for too long."
"Father is not in good health now, don't get angry. Magistrate Liu is an upright official, and he doesn't accept any bribes. But my son will find a way to let you out."
He bewitched people word by word: "You must always remember that A Niang and I will not pursue the matter of Yangyang. As for Xue Miaoyan, it was killed by the second uncle and has nothing to do with you."
Shen Wei hurriedly said: "Yes!"
Shen Hewen's eyes were bloodshot when he heard this.
Look, brotherhood is fragile and vulnerable.
When Shen Zhi came out of the cell, his face turned cold, and he handed the money bag in his sleeve to the guard's hand.
"Lao Duoduo will take care of you."
The yamen servant didn't dare to accept it, he hurriedly said: "My lord has just sent a message, and I have ordered it."
"The right is a hard-earned money. You use it to buy wine."
The yamen servant smiled and showed his yellow teeth.
soon.
Shen Wei and Shen Hewen were kicked into another cell by the yamen guards.
The yamen servant spit on Shen Wei.
“I’ve seen someone who killed someone, but I’ve never seen someone who killed my own flesh and blood.”
Shen Wei felt humiliated, and wiped it with nausea. But so what. He was trembling all over.
"How dare you do this to me!"
The yamen servant ruthlessly locked the lock, turned around and left.
I still don’t know how to repent. At this moment, you still think of someone to save him, don't you?
This cell includes him, Shen Hewen, and three other people.
One lay curled up on the ground, dying. One obsequiously beat the leg of the middle-aged man sitting on the straw with greedy and fierce eyes.
This is what magistrate Liu specially explained.
‘Special care’
Shen Wei coughed so hard.
"Second brother, help me up."
Shen Hewen was very annoyed, his face was full of frost: "Shen Wei, you have troubled me, and you still want me to obey you?"
"You—" Shen Wei couldn't believe it.
"What are you? I killed someone, so I am flattering you! Without you, how could I have come to this point!"
"Why can you go out, I still have to suffer here!"
Shen Wei was shaking with anger.
A voice that was as cold and smooth as a snake could make one's body shudder came from the side of the ear.
"Great, two more playthings."
