After hearing this, Shen Linkun became anxious at first, "What's so worth studying about a charcoal fire?"
Shen Zi followed his words and said, "Using charcoal fire to ask my grandmother is really overkill. Please turn to another page. My granddaughter has already marked it with a red pen. It records the clothing materials that have just been put into the warehouse in winter. My granddaughter sent someone After taking inventory, there are exactly two missing. Although they are not the most expensive ones, they are enough for an ordinary person to eat and drink for a year."
Mrs. Shen looked at what Shen Zi was pointing at, and found that there were indeed two pieces missing. First, it was the Gu family's engagement list, then the charcoal fire, and then the cloth. Then she looked at her son who couldn't hide things. It seemed that she was well prepared. came.
After living for so many years, Mrs. Shen didn't know the twists and turns in the back house. She put down the account book and rubbed her head gently, "My body is getting worse every year. Aunt Li, after all the hard work, my body has become worse." I’m also tired.”
Then she said to Shen Zi, "Thank you for the hard work in the courtyard. If you don't understand anything, just send someone to ask!"
"Yes!" Shen Zi stood up and sent Mrs. Shen away.
At this time, only Luo Che was left confused.
She couldn't sit still for a long time. When she saw the old lady leaving, she wanted to get up, but the old lady was holding her down and she couldn't move. Luo Shi said angrily, "You also took the things, so you should let them go, right?"
Shen Zi sat on the soft couch, looked at the furious Luo Shi, and said with a smile, "Second Aunt, don't panic. Aunt He hasn't come back yet, so why should Second Aunt leave in a hurry?"
"You..." Luo Shi sat down, "Now that you have taken away many things, what else do you want to do?"
Shen Zi continued to flip through the account books, "I'm afraid my second aunt has forgotten, so my niece is here to help you reminisce. The things you sent to the Luo family a few days ago must be from the Gu family!"
Shen Linkun glared at Luo Shi, "You're such a pickpocket, I asked you to go back to your parents' house to supplement your useless brother!"
"I...I also have a share of the Shen family's things." Luo Shi avoided Shen Linkun's eyes, "Besides, I use my own things to supplement my younger brother. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Shen Linkun got up from the chair, "My own stuff? You don't know how much your incompetent brother has done? How many times has he framed you before and after, and you still have the nerve to talk about it here?"
Now that Aunt He has not come back, Luo Shi is panicking.
Luo Shi couldn't help cursing Shen Zi, "You are a girl who has been divorced. If you don't reflect on yourself at home, you come to the second room to stir up trouble. Is this how Xie raised you? To make you so arrogant in the Shen family?"
After saying that, Luo Shi said to Shen Linkun again, "If my family hadn't been in such a bad state, how could I have married you? How could I be so angry here?"
"At first, it was because of your personal request from the Shen family that my Luo family agreed to the marriage. Now you dislike me for supporting my mother's family. Why didn't you dislike me at that time?"
When Shen Linkun saw that Luo Shi was angry and wanted to fight with him, he also got angry, "If you are not satisfied, you can invite him back to the Luo family. What are you talking about here now?"
After hearing what he said, Luo Shi's anger immediately rose, "Well, you Shen Linkun, now you are disgusted. Even your niece dares to bully your aunt. There is no good person in your Shen family!"
"Besides, why should I go back to the Luo family? What have I done? If you want me to go back to the Luo family, don't even think about it. Don't think I'm easy to bully."
As soon as Luo Shi finished speaking, he saw Granny He next to him being brought in by a woman.
"Miss, I have brought all the things back. As for this nanny, I think she is with the second lady. She was at the Luo family when I left. She said she was sending some things to the Luo family for the second lady. I think she is It was strange, so I tied them back together."
"Tie" Luo Shi said hurriedly, "How dare you? This Nanny He is my personal nanny, how can she be compared to you lowly slaves?"
"What the Second Madam said is that the old slave is a second-class servant outside the courtyard. Naturally, he cannot compare with Aunt He. He cannot do anything that Aunt He can do, and the old slave cannot do it either."
"Miss, these were found from Grandma He. I think they are the missing items from the Gu family's gift list this time, so I would like to ask the eldest lady to take a look."
When Luo Shi heard this, he stood up suddenly and shouted loudly, "Nonsense! It can't be that Aunt He took this. I just asked her to go back to Luo's house, and then she stole it? It's simply a slander!"
"Second Aunt, please be patient!" Shen Zi was obviously troubled by Luo Shi's quarrel.
"Since the second aunt said that Aunt He is innocent, can the second aunt provide evidence? After all, these things were found from Aunt He on the spot. If they can't be found, the niece can only send her to the Yamen for interrogation."
"Don't even think about it!" Luo Shi shouted to Shen Zi, "Don't think that I don't know. You arranged all this. Didn't you just take a few things from the Gu family?"
"How many things belong to the Gu family? Second Aunt said it lightly. If the Gu family finds out that something is missing, the Shen family will not only be embarrassed. I'm afraid the Holy Father will also blame it. Then the Luo family will also suffer. Is Second Aunt okay? Have you thought about the consequences?"
Luo Shi suddenly murmured in his heart, the Luo family was naturally inferior to the Shen family, but if he was really blamed, the Shen family's origins and heritage were still there.
But if it falls on the Luo family, the Luo family will not be able to survive for a few days.
"I" Luo Shi grabbed his handkerchief tightly and didn't know how to speak.
"Now that the person has been caught, this matter must be settled. I am tired today. You can take the person back to the big room by yourself. As for the old slave, just beat him to death with a stick and throw him out. Why bother to alert the government and cause such trouble? Everyone knows it." Shen Linkun spoke to Shen Zi from the side.
"No!" Luo Shi was so anxious that sweat broke out on her head. This Nanny He had been following her since she was born. How could she let it go?
"Aunt He is the person I brought from my mother's family. You, the Shen family, have no right to deal with her!" Luo Shi said through gritted teeth.
Hearing this, Shen Zi sneered, "Second uncle, why should I be anxious? I just found half of it, and there is another half. Don't you want to know where it is?"
"What else do you want?" Shen Linkun said bitterly.
"Since the second uncle asked, I might as well say it directly! I would also like to ask the second uncle to return the other things, if not."
Shen Linkun said disdainfully, "What if I don't pay you back?"
Shen Zi put down the account book in her hand and raised her eyes, "Don't pay it back? Then I'll send someone outside to tell you that the second master of the Shen family has taken his niece's engagement gift. Let's see what people outside will say about you."
"Shen Zi." Shen Linkun's eyes widened when he heard this, "You actually don't care about the Shen family's face!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Shen Zi's lips, "The Shen family's reputation? Hasn't this Shen family's reputation been ruined by you long ago? Now I think of the Shen family's reputation again, so why don't you think of the Shen family when you take things out? ?”
