Chapter Ninety-Five: Slander
In the evening, the Mu family had dinner.
Shen Shengyu was invited downstairs by the maid to eat, and when he arrived in the hall, the atmosphere in the hall was solemn, no one spoke, and it was very solemn.
Old Man Mu sat in the main seat, lined up in turn, Mu Chengxue was not there, Lu Qinyi sat next to Mu Mu, Mu Shengfeng sat on the left side of Old Man Mu, and the position next to him was empty.
As soon as Shen Shengyu appeared, a glimmer of light flashed in Lu Qinyi's eyes, and her face was not visible, sitting quietly, like a sister next door.
Mu Mu spoke: "Come down so late, let our elders wait for you and a junior?"
Shen Shengyu raised his eyebrows, didn't speak, and sat next to Mu Shengfeng in silence.
Mu Mu knew that she was bored, so she snorted coldly and began to be silent.
Old Man Mu stared at Shen Shengyu with cloudy eyes, and asked in a vicissitudes of life: "Shengyu, did you go out today to buy anything?"
"Nope." Shen Shengyu looked at Mu Shengfeng, and when he saw that he was also looking back at him, he lowered his voice and continued: "Wait for Shengfeng to buy it with me next time he is free."
Hearing this, Mu Shengfeng felt a pain in his heart, and felt even more guilty about her. Thinking that he had snubbed her today because of work, he felt extremely guilty in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "Wait for tomorrow, I will accompany you tomorrow."
Old Man Mu looked at the two of them and nodded with satisfaction.
In terms of sensibility, Shen Shengyu is much better than that Xin Zhiyan, and much more stable than Lu Qinyi. This kind of gentle and virtuous woman is the virtuous helper of his grandson.
In addition, his grandson likes this woman, and he has no opinion as a grandfather, which is a good thing.
However, his eyes swept over Mu Mu, who was eating, as unusually silent, and he was determined to have something bad brewing in his heart.
Although Mu's mother is Shengfeng's own mother, what does she say? is the same as Xin Zhiyan, he is thoughtful, he actually didn't want her to enter the door at the beginning, but because his son liked it, he gave up.
Now if she is a demon again, he will no longer care about face.
Halfway through the meal, Mu's mother said goodbye and left first.
Lu Qinyi caught a glimpse of her entering the room, and the corners of her mouth curled up with pleasure. stared at the two loving people with resentment, and his heart sank violently.
Let's have a good time first, and we'll see how you end up later!
Lu Qinyi silently counted the time in her heart, and finally heard an exclamation from upstairs, and in an instant, several people in the hall heard the sound and looked over.
I saw Mu Mu walking outside with a pale face, walking hurriedly, and pointing to her room: "Oh no! Someone came into my room. ”
Lu Qinyi stood up for the first time and looked at her pretending to be surprised: "Aunt Mu, don't be nervous, speak slowly."
For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to freeze.
Old Man Mu's eyebrows were twisted, and his vicissitudes of voice echoed in the empty hall, and he asked undoubtedly, "What did you lose?"
Mu Mu was entangled for a moment and said, "Yes, it's the bracelet of the family heirloom."
Jintian jade bracelet is the wife of Old Man Mu, that is, Mu Shengfeng's grandmother passed it to Mu's mother, although this thing is not expensive, in the heart of Old Man Mu, this is a witness, and it is also the only thing that Grandma Mu left in the world.
Hearing this, Old Man Mu was not angry, stood up violently, and shouted: "Search for me!" I'd like to see who is so bold! ”
Seeing Old Man Mu so angry, Lu Qinyi was happy in her heart, her face was worried, and she asked euphemistically: "Grandpa Mu, if you find the murderer, you must not let it go!"
Old Man Mu glanced over with a sharp gaze, his expression dark, "That's nature!" ”
After getting the answer in her heart, Lu Qinyi secretly rejoiced in her heart, she secretly glanced at Shen Shengyu, who was sitting in the position, gritted her teeth fiercely, raised her eyebrows, and simply sat down to watch this good show.
Many servants were ordered by Old Man Mu and began to search the various rooms.
Shen Shengyu took the chopsticks in her hand, and always felt that someone was looking at her, she looked back and happened to see Lu Qinyi retracting her gaze. Her eyes flashed, and she was inexplicably uneasy.
Suddenly, someone upstairs shouted, "Old man, I've found it!"
The eyes of several people downstairs looked over, and Old Man Mu had a gloomy face and shouted: "Where did you find it!?"
"Back to the old man, yes, I found it in Miss Shen's room."
The man looked hesitantly at the others before replying in a trembling voice.
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Shen Shengyu's body, and it was difficult to ignore that compelling gaze.
Shen Shengyu put down his chopsticks, looked back, and when he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Lu Qinyi: "Shen Shengyu, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person, you are going to enter the Mu family, the bracelet will be yours sooner or later, why do you want to steal it?"
directly confirmed the status of the thief, leaving her speechless.
Upstairs, Mu's mother walked down angrily, came to Mu Shengfeng's side, and pointed at her fiercely: "Son, I told you that she has a bad character, you see, she can steal the bracelet today, and she will empty the Mu family tomorrow."
"yes, you recognize it now, right? She Shen Shengyu is a woman who hates the poor and loves the rich, she left at the beginning, and now she is back, what is it if she is not trying to make money? ”
Lu Qinyi instigated with oil and vinegar.
Mu Shengfeng frowned and explained, "I believe Sheng Yu, that bracelet must have been deliberately placed in her room."
Mu's eyes widened: "You child, is it difficult or I framed her?"
Mu Shengfeng didn't answer, but instead found a servant and prepared to interrogate. Suddenly, Old Man Mu, who had not spoken for a long time, swept towards Shen Shengyu and asked gloomily: "Shengyu, you took the bracelet?"
"It's not." Shen Shengyu lowered his eyelashes and opened his mouth to deny.
"Now that everyone has stolen goods, do you dare to deny it?!" Lu Qinyi frowned, and said angrily. She turned her head to look at Old Man Mu, and said one after another: "Grandpa Mu, you just said that after finding the murderer, you must be severely punished!"
Mu's mother was crying and covered her face: "Dad, this bracelet was given to me by my mother, I have always kept it in the house, but I don't want to be targeted by someone, Dad, you have to make the decision for me."
Shen Shengyu's heart sank, now she knew why Lu Qinyi looked at her so often just now, and dared to wait for her here? slandered her for stealing, and then made Old Man Mu disappointed in her, thus ruining the wedding.
Now, she had to fight back.
Otherwise, they will treat her as a soft persimmon, and they don't know how to mock her in the future.
Shen Shengyu stood up, ignoring Mu Mu and Lu Qinyi singing and harmonizing, his voice was crisp and powerful, and he said to Old Man Mu without the slightest timidity: "The Qing is self-purifying, I never disdain to do such things that damage my character, since someone does not welcome Sheng Yu, then Sheng Yu will leave first."
After that, regardless of Mu Shengfeng's retention, he left directly.
