I sighed softly, and then said lightly: "Sister Yunmei said, the cheongsam was given to her by Zhu's mother, doesn't that mean that Zhu's mother took advantage of my inattention and went into the room to steal it, my room is divided into two cabinets, one cabinet is a complete finished product, and the other is defective and needs to be repaired by the tailor. ”

"How could it be ......"

An Yunmei was stunned, she didn't expect me to open my eyes and talk nonsense like this.

Needless to say, in fact, I can understand her thoughts, after all, it is not the first time I have given her clothes, in the past, as long as there was any novelty or even valuable gadget from the Jiang Mansion, as long as she liked it, I would give it.

Although I had a bad attitude when I took my mother away the clothes today, and I must have played with right and wrong when my mother went back to find her, I didn't expect that there would be a problem with the cheongsam, and the last thing I expected was that I would hit a rake now.

Shen Fangyi's eyes rolled, and she also said: "Big sister, do you remember it, didn't you give a lot of dresses to Sister Yunmei before, they were all brought by Mother Zhu, why do you still say that Mother Zhu stole it now?" ”

"Nonsense!" As soon as her words fell, I interrupted her loudly and said seriously, "When did I give a dress to Sister Yunmei?" Why should I give a dress to Sister Yunmei? Do you think that Sister Yunmei has no dresses to wear on weekdays, or do you think that Sister Yunmei, who is stingy and doesn't give monthly money, can't even afford to buy a dress of her own, so she wants to take it from me? ”

After saying a few words, everyone present, including Mrs. An, was stunned.

I can't refute this at all, women's dresses are generally not delivered, in Xiping, there is a strange but unwritten rule, the dress is a woman's fig leaf, giving away the dress is equivalent to taking off your own fig leaf, most people do not send dresses, and women's homes do not send them.

In the past, I gave a dress to An Yunmei, and naturally I really treated her as my own sister, but now, am I stupid to admit it, anyway, every time she takes it away, she doesn't let me leave a handprint or anything, let alone tell Shen Jiashu, now I just grit my teeth and don't admit it, what can I do?

Shen Fangyi, who was sitting on the side, pushed the second aunt Yao Manxue and glared at her several times, Yao Manxue knew that Shen Fangyi wanted to speak out by herself, she didn't want to mix with these, but thinking that it was her daughter's meaning after all, she said softly: "It's not up to the eldest lady to give it away or steal, the eldest lady is kind and willing to share it with her sisters, and the family doesn't care about those, but today is because the eldest lady's cheongsam made a mistake, so that Miss Yunmei has no face, how important is the face of this girl's family, no matter what, The eldest lady should be responsible. ”

"Yes." Mrs. An also straightened up when she heard this, and said, "If it is according to the family law of our family, Chihiro should kneel down and personally admit your mistakes and apologize." ”

I almost sneered, I was embarrassed to say such a blind thing, in my previous life, I treated them as a family, and I took out my heart and lungs, what happened to me?

Now, I'm not stupid, An Yunmei has no face, so she wants me to be responsible, why?

I glanced at Shen Jiashu, he didn't say a word, but stared at me with a dark face, as if he agreed to ask me, the eldest lady of the Shen family, to kneel down and apologize to a daughter born in an unnamed outer room, thinking that this was a natural thing.

Tsk, to hell with it!

I smiled lightly and said to Shen Jiashu: "Father, it's okay to ask me to kneel down and apologize, but if there is really a thief in our family, and now everyone is blinded by the thief, and they come to frame me instead, this is spread out, isn't it laughing off the big teeth?" After a pause, I said softly, "If there is a thief in the house, the matter can be big or small, just like stealing clothes, if you steal other important documents, it will be a big matter." ”

Other people heard these words in a fog, but Shen Jiashu reacted immediately.

The year before last, there was a subordinate in the Shen Mansion who smoked and gambled outside and owed a lot of money, and when he was desperate, he thought of stealing things in the Shen Mansion to sell them, and the person sneaked into Shen Jiashu's study.

Originally, this was nothing, but there were a few letters in the lone book in Shen Jiashu's collection, and those letters were records about Shen Jiashu's private participation in the resale of arms and opium, and it took Shen Jiashu a lot of effort to settle the matter.

When I mention such a stubble now, Shen Jiashu will immediately become serious, he can no matter how much his wife and children are wronged, but when it comes to his interests, he attaches great importance to it.

An Meiling, who was the person next to Shen Jiashu's pillow, was naturally stunned, and her expression suddenly became nervous.

Sure enough, Shen Jiashu said in a cold voice: "Call that mother Zhu, and I'll ask you personally!" ”

Mrs. An was very dissatisfied and wanted to open her mouth to speak, but An Meiling pulled her sleeve and signaled her not to speak for the time being, she could only endure it.

Soon, Zhu's mother was brought, seeing such a big battle in front of her, she swallowed her saliva in fright, knelt down with a pop, and cried at the top of her throat: "Master, madam, I was wronged, the cheongsam was given to me by the eldest lady herself, and said that she and Miss Yunmei were angry a few days ago, and this cheongsam is considered to be a reparation, I ...... I thought at the time that they were all my own sisters, how could I have any overnight hatred, and I didn't check it, so I gave it to Miss Yunmei, how could I have expected such a thing to happen! ”

I spoke directly, staring at her with a torch in my eyes and said, "Zhu Mom, are you sure I really gave it to you?" ”

Zhu Mother was stunned, met my eyes, and saw me staring at her, she trembled with fright, but she also leaned her neck and said firmly: "Of course it is, Miss, you can't frame the old slave like this!" ”

"Then let's search for it. A thief will not steal only one thing, as long as I wish my mother is innocent, there will be no stolen goods in the house, as long as there is no stolen goods, the dress is not stolen by you, is it not reasonable? ”

I spoke softly, and my mother was already pale with fright.

This mother Zhu's hands and feet have not been very clean, relying on her and An Meiling to be a little related, the people in the Shen Mansion give her a little face, usually stealing chickens and dogs, and taking one or two good things when she sees them, which is a common thing, but as long as Shen Jiashu doesn't notice it, it will be fine.

If you want to search today, you will definitely be able to turn over a lot of things.

Shen Jiashu snorted, he didn't care about anything else, even the reputation of my daughter he could ignore it, but when it came to his own interests, he couldn't tolerate it, and then, Shen Jiashu couldn't refuse the order: "Come on, go and search my mother's room!" ”

In less than half an hour, a lot of stolen property from Zhu's mother has been found, including Shen Baihui's bracelet, Shen Fangyi's necklace, and the rouge box of the second aunt Yao Manxue, etc., among which I have the most things, not only silk dresses and scarves but also stacks of banknotes.

The most important thing is that Shen Jiashu's things were really searched, it was an old copper buckle leather bag of Shen Jiashu, although Shen Jiashu had long since used it to be shelved, but this leather bag was given by Shen Jiashu's top boss, even if it was not used, it could not be thrown away, otherwise if it was known, what would people think of him?

I hooked my lips coldly, wishing my mother that she would not be able to get better at this time.

Sure enough, Shen Jiashu saw that his leather bag had been stolen, and he immediately became furious: "An Meiling! It's the thief you invited! stole so many things from the Shen Mansion, and wronged Chihiro! Where are you in charge? ”

"I ...... I don't know...... " An Meiling was anxious, she knew that her mother was not clean on weekdays, but she didn't expect me to mention it at this juncture today and then search it.

"Father, if the evil slave is not punished in time, I am afraid that he will still cause trouble." I opened my mouth slowly and said coolly, "Besides, some time ago, the newspaper said that the Zhou Mansion in the south of the city was seized by the marshal, just because there was a wicked slave in the family who stole Master Zhou's things and went out to sell them, but unexpectedly, the things sold were prohibited items, and it was later found out that the evil slave was bought off by someone and deliberately framed the Zhou Mansion, do we have to ...... the Shen Mansion?"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Jiashu raised his foot angrily and kicked at the frightened mother Zhu: "Someone! Arrest this old woman for me and take her to the patrol room! ”
