Chapter 162: Follow the vine and feel the clues

After Tao Shan'er left, Shen Meilan returned to the appearance of a beautiful woman. It was as if the vicious witch just now had nothing to do with Shen Meilan.

"Alright, let's go inside. Mama Qiao, before we set off, she had already taken over the big and small affairs in the mansion. She knew that I would come back today, and she would ask the grandmothers and maids in the back kitchen to prepare the dishes in advance. Let's just eat it when we go into the house. ”

Sure enough, as soon as Tan Qingqing walked into the inner hall, he saw that the eight-treasure round mahogany table was full of all kinds of delicacies. These delicacies are all seasonal delicacies. What kind of fat sheep shabu-shabu, what kind of tamales.

As for green vegetables such as yams, they were directly ignored by Tan Qingqing. Although she also knows that greens are also very nutritious. But the green vegetables are also the spices that Tan Qingqing is tired of eating meat and vegetables, and occasionally changes the taste.

Tao Shan'er and Tao Wan'er went back to their own room and asked the grandmother in the house to go directly to the back kitchen to bring them vegetables into the room. Therefore, in the hall, when there are no two people, Shen Meilan's face is as gentle as she wants.

But when everyone finished the meal.

Especially Shen Meilan, after asking her subordinates to bring the washbasin for washing her hands and wiping her hands with a hand towel, the momentum of her body changed completely. It's become very aggressive.

"Mama Qiao, go check who is handling the carriage I went to Lingyin Taoist Temple. In particular, the groom in our house called him and asked him if the new groom who was in his class was his own cousin. ”

"Yes." Although Mama Qiao didn't know what happened to Shen Meilan and her party on the road, looking at Shen Meilan's serious expression, Mama Qiao could also guess a rough idea.

People quickly brought Shen Meilan.

The groom was a black man. When she was brought up, she still looked incomprehensible and incomprehensible, staring at Shen Meilan tightly.

Although this person looks kind, he is also an old man who serves Shen Meilan, so he naturally knows what kind of temperament Shen Meilan is.

He looked at Shen Meilan's serious appearance, and he was immediately frightened and trembled. Without waiting for Shen Meilan to ask, he said everything he knew like pouring soybeans.

"That man gave me ten silver ingots, black lump I've never seen so much money! At that time, I had a hot head and helped him with the replacement work. Master, I was wrong, you can punish me however you want, but don't kick me out of the Tao family...... I am old and young, and the whole family depends on me to live...... Be merciful, ......"

"I sent you mercy, so who sent me mercy?"

Shen Meilan glared at Hei Tuo angrily, "It's because you're greedy for money that thieves have a chance to take advantage of it." Let this foreign groom stab Mrs. Ben on the way! If it weren't for the protection of my precious niece, the whole car would have already seen Hades! ”

"Mama Qiao, sell this person. From today on, Mrs. Ben doesn't want to see a subordinate like him who turns his elbow out for some dirty money! ”

"Yes." Mama Qiao has always been Shen Meilan's loyal confidant. Whatever Shen Meilan said, Mama Qiao didn't have anything to do.

When Heituo was dragged away, he kept begging for mercy. But the entire hall was also frightened because of Shen Meilan's domineering momentum. Who has the extra energy to intercede for Heituo?

"Now, it's time to deal with the people related to Liu's car dealership."

Shen Meilan sat in a dignified posture, but her arrogance of not being angry and arrogant made everyone dare not come out.

"Who praised me at the beginning, saying that the carriage made by Liu's car company is exquisite and chic, and many ladies are proud to ride Liu's carriage?"

The maid who was named, Bai Wei directly weakened her legs, "Madam, the slave doesn't really want to harm you, it's really because...... Because ......"

"Because of Mrs. Dong." Tan Qingqing directly pierced the person who was behind Bai Wei and instructed Bai Wei on the side. "How many people in the Tao Mansion are currently under the control of Old Lady Dong? Madame, I will now give you a chance to confess yourself. Maybe you confess yourself, and Madame can still blame the past and continue to let you do things in Taofu. ”

"But if you are still stubborn, you do not intend to turn to the darkness and turn to the light. When Madame finds out for herself, then you will be good-looking. ”

……

No one spoke.

It seems that everyone is still holding a fluke mentality.

Okay, since she didn't speak, Shen Meilan began to name them one by one.

"Zihuai, picking green, it seems that the two of you were in charge of contacting Liu's car dealership at the beginning, right? Do you want Mrs. Ben to send someone to invite the carpenter of the Liu Clan's car shop to see who else is involved in the carriageman's foot? ”

This matter simply does not stand up to investigation.

No matter how much Old Lady Dong is the emperor, it is different from the real battle between the court factions. The factions of the imperial court fought, killing people and destroying corpses, and other things were much more ruthless than Old Lady Dong.

But Mrs. Dong can always make people find some clues.

No, Zihuai and Cai Lu immediately abandoned their weapons and surrendered, "Madam, we are the same as Bai Wei, it is really because our relatives are in the palm of Old Lady Dong's hands, we have to listen to that old man's words......"

"It's late." Shen Meilan looked at them with an indifferent face, "My precious niece also said just now, if you confess yourself, Mrs. Ben may be able to forgive you and let you continue to stay in Tao Mansion." But the two of you were arrested by Mrs. Ben herself. So Mama Joe, the two of them, you know what to do. ”

Mama Qiao nodded. If you turn around, you have to let someone sell the two of them.

Unexpectedly, this purple locust and green picking, refused to leave the house. And the attitude is still very resolute.

"Madam, I report! I know who else is in the house, and it is the old man's eyes. If I say, can you raise your hand and let us go? ”

They are women. It's no better than those thugs and little guys. If someone sells it, the best and worst situation is just to change the company, or be sold into Yihong Courtyard and continue to work for Mrs. Dong.

It's better to give it a go, relying on the strength of Tao Fu and Tan Qingqing to rescue their relatives from the hands of Old Lady Dong. Completely out of that old man's grasp!

"But the slaves have one condition. That is, to rescue me and my brother who was mining greenery from the mine. Otherwise, don't try to pry half a word out of our mouths! ”

Dare to threaten?

Shen Meilan's face turned cold, "Mama Qiao, drag it down." ”

Seeing that Mama Qiao was about to do it again, Zihuai immediately changed her words, "I know Aunt Liu's handle!" Aunt Liu is also the person sent by Mrs. Dong to the master's side, the purpose is to find out the master's business trends at any time! The entire Yuzhou City, not only the Tao Mansion, but also other mansions, is also the same......"

Hearing that she was interested, Shen Meilan stopped Mama Qiao.

"Is there any tangible evidence for what you say?"

"Nope." Zihuai shook his head, with a look of guilt on his face, "An old chess piece like this, which has been laid out for more than ten years, is not something that a new chess piece like us can control." ”

"There is something about Aunt Liu being the eyes of Old Lady Dong, and I only learned about it recently."

"Because when Mrs. Dong wants us to do something, he will send someone to bury the note in the dog hole of the mansion. It was also when I was receiving the note that I saw Dong Ling, who was next to Aunt Liu, also appeared near the dog cave. ”

"Madam, all I can say is this, please Madame, save my brother! He's still so young, he can't afford to carry dozens of pounds of ore all day long......"

Wait a minute.

Tan Qingqing watched the two of them crying and begging for mercy here, as if she had found the key.

And I asked directly.

"How do you know that your relatives carry dozens of pounds of ore every day? Do you know the location of this Lushan mine, and have you been there? ”
