Chapter 35: Obstruction

In the case of Zhou Yun not interfering, Shen Fu and Xianning's words were quite deterrent, but as soon as they spoke, at tea time, the maids, guards, and coachmen who followed Mrs. Shen and Aunt Qi that day were all kneeling in the courtyard, Shen Fu looked at the young housekeeper Shen Qing with approval, sitting under the eaves, but unexpectedly, Shen Qing also lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt in the courtyard, causing Shen Fu to frown: "What are you doing?" ”

Shen Qing seemed to have expected Shen Fu to react like this, smiled slightly, bowed his head, and replied respectfully: "The girl is talking about everyone who followed the old lady and aunt that day, and the villain also followed that day, so naturally I have to kneel down with them, so as not to say that the girl is biased." ”

His smile looked quite sincere, but in Shen Fu's eyes, there was something else, she couldn't help but feel alarmed, others may not know what the identity of this housekeeper is, but she is clear, the reason why there is such a young housekeeper is only because he is the head of the Shen family's secret guard, and the origin of Shen Fu is not clear. I only vaguely know that it is related to a certain time when Shen Chen went out.

Now that Shen Qing is kneeling like this, she is a little difficult to deal with, if she is executed together, there is nothing wrong with it on the surface, but Shen Chen must be difficult to deal with, I am afraid that I will have to pay the price just after beating someone.

"Why did you send this person to the family temple that day?"

Shen Fu thought with a little headache, Xiuqi pursed her lips tightly, looked at the people in the courtyard, and Ning Ning didn't speak, just watched from the sidelines, after all, this is what Shen Fu has to do, she hasn't helped a little girl to meddle with things, and even has a habit of getting burned, the two just have a common goal, but they are not friends with the same hatred.

But no matter what the reason, since Shen Chen sent Shen Qing to serve Old Madam Shen and Aunt Qi, if she wants to investigate the matter of this temple, she will definitely not be able to get rid of Shen Qing, if she wants to be punished, she will naturally be treated equally, and she must not be biased.

Thinking of this, Shen Fu's eyes were a little more ruthless, his fingers slammed on the table, and he said coldly: "The old lady and Aunt Qi were injured that day, it is indeed because you were not well guarded, and now I want to settle accounts and punish after the autumn, what grievances do you have?" ”

This is actually a bit overstepping, but no one will say anything, the Shen family's efforts in this aspect are unimaginable, at least no one will dare to do anything on the surface, but Shen Qing is an exception, this has no reputation, has done countless secret pickling things for Shen Chen, but the young butler who is dressed in a green coat said softly and without fireworks: "Big girl, those of us who do things, naturally don't dare to have any opinions, but the villain wants to say a fair word, everyone present has already been punished before, and now there is another case, I'm afraid I can't stand it, I also hope that the eldest lady will be merciful. ”

He said this beautifully, and he was a young and reliable housekeeper in the hearts of many slaves, and he set off a wave of small noises in the crowd, which was a kind of half-concealed support, but Shen Fu didn't speak, only looked at the people in front of him, with a smile on his cheeks, and exerted invisible pressure, the wave gradually dispersed and disappeared, she still smiled and asked, "Have you finished talking?" If that's all that, I'm going to start working on it, and of course, I'll explain it to you, so that I can teach you what it means to be in harmony. ”

The beautiful girl's gaze slowly swept over the faces of everyone present, some people quietly lowered their heads, some people did not bow their heads with their necks, all living beings fell into Shen Fu's eyes at this moment, she was not in a hurry, she only felt that the cold wind was freezing, she took a sip of hot tea unhurriedly, and said gently: "The events of that day, the Song family helped me check, it was not an external thief, it was an internal ghost, that is to say, the person who did it to Aunt Qi was in you, because of the incident that day, there was no trace of retreat around, but who it was, the gods don't know, I can only use a stupid method, Let the big guys endure hardships together and expose each other. ”

One sentence shocked a thousand waves, the people in the courtyard are all extremely cunning and shrewd existences, otherwise how could Shen Chen be selected to serve Old Madam Shen and Aunt Qi? What's more, when it comes to the Shen family's cane punishment, it is extremely vicious, and if you are not careful, it will be a crippled result, and the young people in the courtyard will grab a handful, and no one will be willing to accept this kind of ending.

So the sound tide rose again, before the vital interests, no one could be alone, but Shen Qing was unexpectedly silent, and no one's hand pointed at him, he only remained silent until the sound tide subsided, and after everyone pointed out the people who were suspicious in their opinion, the crowd quickly divided into three groups, those who were suspicious, those who were not suspected, and there was also Shen Qing.

Shen Fu frowned almost invisibly, she didn't believe that someone in the troubled water could be alone, even if it was the second housekeeper of the Shen family, thinking of this, Shen Fu's eyes flashed with haze, the old housekeeper seemed to be too close to the main courtyard, who can guarantee that the relationship with the main courtyard is really clean?

Although she thought so in her heart, she didn't attack Shen Qing easily, but first took out her mind to interrogate those who were isolated: "You all tell me why these people are suspicious, come one by one, don't worry." ”

These words are like bait thrown into a koi pond, stirring a pool of clean water in an instant, there are really a lot of people, you come and go with another pillar of incense, Shen Fu can figure out the key, the so-called suspicious people, can't escape a few, what service is not careful, suddenly went to the toilet before the attack and so on, but there is still no news she wants.

"So what do you have to say? People have three urgency, could it be that you ......? ”

As soon as he asked, Shen Qing's brows furrowed, and he stepped forward to clench his fists and wanted to justify, but the people behind him spoke one step earlier and explained: "It's impossible for the little housekeeper, he was there when he was attacked, although he couldn't watch it all the time, but Aunt Qi and the old lady were taken away, but he brought people back." ”

Shen Fu raised his eyebrows with interest, his fingertips rubbed the pattern on the table, his eyes were calm and exploratory, falling on Shen Qing, Shen Qing was like a pine on the side of the abyss, quiet and flat, Shen Fu's eyes were just a breeze, but the words were like a hammer knocking: "I want to ask you, the second housekeeper, when Aunt Qi was attacked, where and what were you doing, did anyone see you chasing?" ”

She paused slightly, as if she was considering the words, and her lips opened again: "You don't have to answer in a hurry, the men and women present are divided into two groups, and they are disdressed for inspection, Aunt Qi told me earlier that when the man in black stabbed her, he was bitten." ”

The great defense of men and women was touched at this moment, but all the performances of Shen Fu's rebirth so far, even if he did not take the substantive rights from Zhou Yun's hands, but he established the majesty and fear of death in the hearts of these subordinates, so today's sound tide appeared again, and it quickly calmed down, Shen Qing's brows were almost invisibly provoked, but she did not miss Shen Fu's sight, she was waiting, wondering if this housekeeper was what she believed.

"Big girl, the lady asked you to go to the main courtyard, and said that the two of you should go to the courtyard to see the clothes made for Aunt Qi, as well as the things on the west side, the lady said that you don't have to bother, she has already caught people."

The person who came was Diecui, followed by Wen Xiang and a group of little maids, standing in front of Shen Fu with low eyebrows at this moment, but the words made Shen Fu frown slightly, his eyes crossed the top of Diecui's head, and fell on Shen Qing's face, and the two looked at each other, blowing up gunsmoke that only they knew.

"I'll go."

Shen Fu pulled away his gaze, his fingertips were slightly warped, showing hesitation and reluctance, Lord Fang stepped forward to help him with great vision, Shen Fu coughed lightly like a weak illness, and the two masters and servants made a weak gesture, which made Diecui frown, and Ning knew that Shen Fu was unwilling to go, so he also rolled up his sleeves and got up, stepped forward with a smile to block Shen Fu's way, and stopped Diecui: "The eldest girl is weak, the main courtyard is not close to the West Chamber, if it snows and hail later, there is a headache and brain fever, but it is not good." ”

This is nonsense, Diecui's face is not very good-looking for a moment, her fingers tightly grasp the handkerchief in her hand, although she is Zhou Yun's personal maid, she did not give Shen Chen a room, she is still a slave in front of Xianning, Xianning is so nonsense, she clearly doesn't take her seriously, this thought is clear, but there is nothing to be done.

At this time, it suddenly snowed, as if catering to Xianning's words, but Diecui and his party really didn't bring an umbrella, Diecui became more and more annoyed, turned around and slapped Wen Xiang in the face, and scolded Huai: "Faceless and skinless cheap hooves, can't you get used to serving the master?" The lady asked you to come with me to help, but it's not a help, I won't see it this day? Why don't you even bring an umbrella? Do you really think that the master has taken a fancy to you, and you are the master of the Shen family's eight classics? ”

Diecui raised his eyes to look at Xianning's face as he spoke, and sure enough, Xianning's eyebrows were angry, and his lips were tightly pursed, clearly annoyed, but it was not good to say anything, but his fingertips were white, Shen Fu looked at Diecui's behavior, and naturally refused to let Xianning suffer, not to mention that Diecui had been so tormented, and it was difficult to continue the interrogation.

Thinking of this, Shen Fu sighed secretly in his heart, and stepped forward to speak: "Aunt Xianning also feels sorry for me, as an elder, it is appropriate to say a few more words, since the mother of the main courtyard is calling, Sister Diecui should not delay the hour." ”

She is relieved, Diecui secretly rejoiced in her heart, and the anger on her face was slightly restrained, only Wen Xiang's palm print on her cheeks was bright red, looking quite aggrieved, and the eyes cast at Diecui were also full of resentment, but she lowered her head to cover herself, but this strangeness did not escape Shen Fu's gaze, she swept Wen Xiang quite playfully, did not speak, and followed Diecui straight to the main courtyard.

"I've seen my mother, my grandmother, my grandmother is okay? What about Aunt Qi? ”

The main courtyard was warm and burning the earth dragon, Mrs. Shen's injury was slightly lighter, and she already had the energy to look at Zhou Yun and others on the rattan chair at this time, when Shen Fu entered the door, Zhou Yun was picking fabrics, and the material from the Tibetan Pearl Courtyard fell into Shen Fu's eyes, which looked quite eye-catching, her heart moved slightly, and suddenly she thought of Aunt Qi, who was pregnant, and couldn't help but ask slightly, but Zhou Yun didn't seem to care at all, she stepped forward with a smile and held her hand, and slowly spoke: "You came at the right time, I have caught the main culprit of the family temple incident that day, and I will throw it to Jing Zhaoyin for review, what about you, Although the body is weak, but you can't ignore things, I will handle the affairs of the family temple for you, you are such a big girl, don't be embarrassed to pick up materials to make clothes for Aunt Qi, right? ”

Zhou Yun's words were mellow and proper, but Shen Fu only felt ominous, the fetus in Aunt Qi's womb was expensive, and now it was unstable, if there was a three-long and two-short, wouldn't she suffer a big loss?
