Chapter 216: "Murder with a Knife"
Xue Ning's eyes had a touch of coldness, and he didn't even look at Li Yinhong, as if there had never been any intersection between the two.
Li Yinhong then asked, "What happened in the house?"
"Shame on you!" the old general sighed.
Chen Hui stepped forward and took a step, his face was a little gloomy, "Today's matter, there is no need to spread the skills to the outside world, but this daughter's temperament is really unpredictable, and I am afraid that she will not be bewitched by someone, and now it has become like this, it is really uneasy!"
"If the general has anything to say, it is clear that it is, why bother to refer to Sang and scold Huai here. Xue Ning walked up slowly, with a touch of coldness in his eyebrows.
Chen Hui couldn't help but retreat, and he was also a little resistant to Xue Ning's character in his heart.
"The general sometimes talks, don't talk nonsense, otherwise it's easy to slap your face. Li Yinhong stepped forward and said softly.
Xue Ning glanced at Li Yinhong in a blink of an eye, he hadn't seen him for a long time, but he was much calmer than before, and he seemed to have grown a lot.
This morning, he just glanced at it in a hurry, and he didn't notice that he looked a little different.
In a few moments, the butler brought the books and boxes over.
"For the account book of the house, I don't need to look at it carefully for the time being, just look at the monthly salary, which can be used by my father, and my mother's dowry, if you click it carefully, there is no difference. ”
After that, the housekeeper nodded, and after a closer look, he really didn't get a silver tael from Chen Hui, and when he counted the dowry, there were still some relatively large things left in more than a dozen boxes.
"Ah, butler, if I'm not mistaken, my mother's dowry is full of ten chests!"
Chen Qianqian called out in surprise and said.
The butler turned his eyes to look at the old general.
The old general was also surprised by the empty box, "What's the matter?"
At this time, even Chen Hui was a little surprised, and turned his eyes to look at Fan Cuidan.
"How much did you use it, and what did you use it for?" Chen Hui asked angrily.
Fan Cuidan was surprised, took a step back, dumbfounded, and then immediately stood up and scolded: "What does it have to do with me?
"Even now, don't you even admit it?" Chen Qianqian asked angrily.
"Maybe it really wasn't Madame who did it at this time, after all, there is no evidence!" Li Yinhong said in time.
When Xue Ning heard this, he also glanced at Fan Cuidan, took a deep breath, and sighed lightly: "I think that since I took it, I will definitely find clues." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xue Ning stretched out his hand and directly snatched the pearl hairpin from Fan Cuidan's head, "Butler, what kind of pearl hairpin is this, in the account books, is there one?"
"This is a ruddy jade hairpin, I remember there is!" the butler began to bury his head in search as he spoke.
Fan Cuidan was full of anger and raised his voice to scold: "You are a group of crazy people, that's mine!"
"It's yours, I look at these jewels on your body, it's my mother's, butler, check!" Chen Qianqian scolded angrily, and then handed Xue Ning a gentle smile.
At this moment, a few people came from outside the mansion gate, knocked on the door, and said softly, "Is the general's wife here?"
The maid responded, and went into the house to report to the old general, and then brought people in.
The shopkeeper looked at the battle in front of him a little big, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.
Behind him were a few small servants, each holding something in his hand, standing motionless in front of the door.
Seeing this, Fan Cuidan was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped forward and made a color, "You group, hurry up." ”
"Hey, why did you ask them to leave?" Chen Qianqian stepped forward and pursed her lips and chuckled, "Why are you here, it's better to hear about it." ”
The shopkeeper glanced at Chen Qianqian, and because of Fan Cuidan's intimidation, he had some doubts.
"What the hell is going on, if you don't make it clear today, I'll ask Lord Fu Yin to take you to the prison and talk slowly!" the old general slapped the table and scolded angrily.
Xue Ning was also a little puzzled by this sudden shopkeeper, and he didn't know the purpose of their coming this time.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and said: "Please also ask the prince, the general, Lord Fu Yin spared the small one, and the little one was just dragged by the general's wife to help her sell these things!"
With that, the shopkeeper took out the covered jade.
When Chen Hui saw it, he only felt a little familiar, but he didn't have any impression at all.
"Heh, what nonsense are you talking about, what kind of family is our General's Mansion, and it has not yet fallen to the time of selling jade to make a living. Chen Qianqian waved her hand and denied it immediately.
"Second Miss, this is true! It is really the general's wife who brought it to the shop to sell, and she has sold several items before, but these are the ......."
Halfway through the shopkeeper's words, he turned his eyes to look at Fan Cuidan, and there was still a little embarrassment in his eyes.
"But what?"
Chen Hui finally couldn't help it and asked.
"You must have been bought by Chen Qianqian, and you actually lied in front of the prince, be careful of your head. Fan Cuidan scolded extremely anxiously.
At this time, the old general couldn't restrain his emotions for a long time, and instantly shouted angrily: "Say, if you don't make it clear, you will have your head!"
At this moment, almost no one believes in Fan Cuidan anymore, and even Chen Qianqian was surprised at this time, because she couldn't understand what kind of person her mother was.
For a while, the most leisurely were none other than Xue Ning and Li Yinhong.
Did Li Yinhong glance at Xue Ning, as far as the two of them looked, there was also a trace of tenderness, but looking back, that gentleness seemed to be destroyed and wiped out in an instant.
The shopkeeper also said: "It's not a secret, the general's wife has really gone to the shop to change a lot of these jade utensils, but these things are really fake." ”
This sentence made everyone sigh for a while.
Only Chen Qianqian was unmoved.
"Mrs. General, a small business, just because you are the general's wife, I believe you, but who would have thought that you would take a fake to fool you!"
The shopkeeper's face was tinged with remorse, but there was not a hint of lying in his eyes.
"How is this possible? I took it out of these boxes, how can it be fake?" Van Cuidan roared almost hysterically at this time.
In a word, it was completely exposed, Xue Ning also stretched his waist, his eyes were full of smiles, "Okay, the truth is revealed." ”
Chen Qianqian walked up and pursed her lips and smiled, "Father, do you remember even one of these fakes?"
When Chen Hui heard this, he hurriedly walked up to take a look, and his heart was suddenly shocked.
