Chapter 69: Who Stole the Dowry

"Big brother must not be like this!" Wu hurriedly avoided Shen Zhixin's salute, squatted down and returned the salute again: "When I was in the boudoir with my sister-in-law, I had to be good, and after marrying into the Shen family together, my sister-in-law took care of me so much!" My sister-in-law left early, leaving these three poor children to beg me to take care of them, and I, as an aunt, treat them as my own! It's a pity that my aunt is so incompetent that she couldn't take care of their brother and sister and betrayed the trust of her sister-in-law! Wu couldn't help but cry as he spoke, and the people in the room were also sad.

"Da Lang, let's look at something else!" Shen Zaishi, who had been silent for a long time, spoke at this time, his eyes as sharp as knives looked at Cui Shi, which made Cui Shi shudder and hang his head weakly.

"Yes, Father!" Shen Zhixin put away his mind and began to look through the other things in the box.

Shen Zhixin carefully looked at the mahogany box on the side, and it was indeed as Wu said, the dowries of the beloved wives he had received at the beginning were all gone. He held back the anger in his chest and didn't dare to look at his mother, he was afraid that he would not be able to resist doing disrespectful things to Cui's. He opened every wooden box to show everyone, and it was all empty.

Shen Mengxi had long known what the situation was in the mahogany box, and she had discussed with the Wu family how to explain the situation to Shen Zaishi in front of everyone. Shen Mengxi didn't think about telling Shen Zaishi about it in private, she believed that Shen Zaishi would have a way to get the Cui family to return the dowry she had stolen from the Fu family. But thinking of Cui's unkindness towards Shen Mengxu and the two of them, she couldn't calm down in her heart. Coupled with Cui's embarrassment of Shen Zhixin this morning, he made up his mind to teach Cui's a lesson!

"Where's the stuff?" Shen Zaishi's eyes kept staring at Cui's family, seeing Cui's face getting more and more ugly, after Shen Zhixin took out the last wooden box and opened it to show it, he couldn't help but ask her sharply.

Cui's was shocked by Shen Zaishi's fierce drinking, and she looked up at Shen Zaishi tremblingly, "It's ridiculous that the official asked, how can I know where Fu's dowry is?" Cui tried his best to maintain his composure, but he didn't know that this would only make people look down on her even more.

"You don't know? Good! If I find out that the dowry of Da Lang's daughter-in-law appears in a place where it shouldn't be, then you can go back to Cui's house with Wang Jin! Shen Zaishi said coldly.

"Official! How can you be so ruthless? Fu's thing is gone, why must it be my hand? Could it be that Xiaoxi was naughty and took it out to play and lost it? Cui Shi said unconvinced.

"Can she lose everything?" Shen Zaishi said angrily.

"Xiaoxi's strength is small, and he can't lift the lid of this box at all!" Wu whispered that she couldn't let Xiaoxi be charged with being a thief.

"Mother wants to find someone to carry the black pot and find a reliable one, who will believe that Xiaoxi stole it?" Shen Zhixin couldn't help but say.

"Then you can't just assume that I stole it! What evidence do you have? Cui Shi thought that anyway, they didn't catch her and stole Fu's dowry, so they bit it to death and didn't recognize that they could bear her.

"Da Lang and Erlang went to search for me, starting from the upper room where I lived, room by room! By the way, Da Lang still has your daughter-in-law's dowry list? ”

"Grandfather, mother's dowry list is with the grandson! There is also the title deed of a Zhuangzi married by his mother and the deed of a shop in the town, which his father handed over to his grandchildren for safekeeping! At this time, Shen Mengzhu spoke.

"Go find it for your father, and let him look for it on the dowry list, and give me the same careful search!" Erlang's daughter-in-law, you wait for a few children to go to Mengzhu's house first, if you can't find the dowry of Dalang's daughter-in-law today, no one is allowed to sleep! After Shen Zaishi finished his order, he glanced at Cui Shi coldly and walked to the upper room alone, sitting upright.
