Mrs. Shen's expression was very bad. She really didn't want to see Lan Xi, but she was the daughter of the Mu family after all, and she was raised pampered and pampered. Moreover, it was his son who caused the romantic debt. As the saying goes, a slap in the face can't make a difference, she I felt unhappy with Lan Xi, but I had to admit my son's mistakes.
Xi Chuqing was not so well-mannered, so she helped Mrs. Shen follow into the house. Seeing Liu Yun's arrogant look, she immediately straightened her face and snorted: "This is the Shen Mansion, Miss Mu, please don't Forgot, it was your sister who crawled into my cousin's bed. Now that my aunt has accepted her, it is her blessing that she has cultivated for several lifetimes. Is there anything else Miss Mu is dissatisfied with?"
Lan Xi's face became paler and she clenched her fists tightly, but she could not refute Xi Chuqing's words. In the past few days, she came over almost every few days to make a fuss. Lan Xi even made trouble with her once or twice. However, Mrs. Shen came over and dismissed her with a few words, asking her to rest in the mansion. If she became restless, she would be sent to the villa of Shen's mansion. Now she is alone and helpless. In addition to pretending to be a victim, she also What can be done?
"Actually, I came here today because on the one hand, my aunt is worried about Lan Xi's health, and on the other hand, I want to ask Magistrate Shen. As the saying goes, the emperor breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty, so I don't know that the magistrate's niece killed an innocent life. Is this a violation of the law?" Liu Yun sat down leisurely, with a look of disdain on his face, and looked at Xi Chuqing from top to bottom, "I wonder if Miss Xi still remembers that it was you who punched and kicked her not long ago? "Kick, I caused my sister to have a miscarriage, I don't know how to calculate this debt?"
As soon as the words fell, Xi Chuqing's expression changed, and even Mrs. Shen froze. In fact, they all thought that the matter had been over. Mrs. Shen was willing to bring Lan Xi to the house in order to prevent the incident that day. That incident was a big deal.
On the one hand, it is to preserve Shen Yi's reputation, and on the other hand, it is also for the miscarriage of the child. If Mu Mansion insists on pursuing the case, then Chu Qing's injury will be confirmed. After all, so many pairs of eyes saw it that day. So. , Mrs. Shen immediately made a decision and brought the person close to the mansion to take care of her. The Mu Mansion would naturally resolve the matter for the sake of the relationship between the two families.
"Miss Xi knows why my sister is so weak, but she didn't expect that Shen Mansion would treat my sister so coldly. Did she really think that our Mu Mansion has no one?" Liu Yun sneered, with a cold gaze in his eyes. , stabbed straight at Mrs. Shen.
That's right, Liu Yun's target has always been Mrs. Shen. Xi Chuqing is just a spoiled and squeamish young lady. Her infatuation with Shen Yi is simply amazing. I just heard that Shen Yi has sent her away not long ago. Unexpectedly, she came back soon.
"What Liu Yun said is wrong. Our Shen family had to take good care of Lan Xi when they brought her in. I was also negligent." Mrs. Shen was a neat person. As she spoke, she had already asked someone to take care of Lan Xi. Everyone was beaten with a rod to punish them for their neglect.
At this point, Ms. Lin finally spoke and smoothed things over with a faint smile: "The eldest lady in our family is spoiled by the master and the old lady. In fact, the eldest miss loves her younger sister. They can just have a little relationship with each other. Mrs. Shen can't Don’t take it personally.”
This was the first time that Liu Yun and Lin had such a tacit understanding. Even Lan Xi frowned and looked at the two of them, suspicious in her heart. What happened to these two people today?
"By the way, I heard that something happened at Mr. Mu's place. Our master came back yesterday and stayed in the study until midnight just to deal with Mr. Mu." Mrs. Shen was eager to change the topic and immediately found something that Lin was interested in. .
Mrs. Lin inadvertently glanced at Liuyun. She was playing with the bracelet in her hand naturally, as if the aggressive one just now was not her. Ms. Lin was actually grateful for her taking advantage of her. If she hadn't moved to Chu Qing's How could Mrs. Shen sit here so talkatively, and how could she bring up the matter about the master to appease them.
However, Mrs. Lin had some doubts in her heart. With Liu Yun's temperament, she would have been reluctant to come together today. There was no reason for her to be so cooperative. However, after thinking about it, maybe the old lady said to Liu Yun before going out. What did she say? They came here this time because of her father's affairs.
"I, a woman like you, don't understand business matters. I originally wanted to visit Mr. Shen, but the old lady refused to let him go. She said it was to avoid suspicion. Who told you and Shen Mu's family to have a good relationship? Let's put this matter aside It's really difficult to deal with it at this moment." Lin's face showed embarrassment, but he hesitated to speak.
"There is no need to avoid suspicion. The masters of our two families have always been friends. If it hadn't been for... something happened, our two families would be real in-laws now." Mrs. Shen said for a while, and then said, "But... I never ask questions when Master Mu handles cases, but you can rest assured that anything that Master Mu has not committed will definitely come to light."
This statement is really watertight. If he has not committed a crime, nothing will happen to him. Then if something happens to him, it must be because he has committed a crime. She is worthy of being Lord Shen's wife, a true official wife.
Xi Chuqing wanted to say some harsh words, but Mrs. Shen gave her a cold look. Seeing Liu Yun standing aside, she secretly resented why that idiot beauty had become more powerful, but she didn't dare to offend her. , she secretly thought about how she would torture Mu Lanxi to vent her anger after they left.
At this moment, Shen Yi suddenly came over.
"Cousin, you're back." Xi Chuqing rushed over like a butterfly. Shen Yi frowned slightly, stretched out his hand to support her body, turned slightly to one side, and crossed over her.
Shen Yi nodded slightly as a greeting to everyone, and then his eyes fell on Liu Yun, but Liu Yun didn't even raise her head and was playing with her bracelet calmly. Shen Yi's eyes narrowed slightly. He had seen a blood jade bracelet in the capital, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
"Master Shen is here..." Lan Xi said softly and coughed lightly before finishing her words.
"I haven't come to see you these past few days due to busy work. Are you feeling better?" Shen Yi's face was indifferent, and the look he looked at Lan Xi was lukewarm, but it was enough for Lan Xi. Since she After entering Shen Mansion, Shen Yi only came once. He only sent people to deliver some medicinal materials, but he never came.
"Thank you, Mr. Master, for your concern. I'm much better now." He put his right fist against the corner of his mouth and coughed lightly, intentionally or unintentionally.
Liu Yun suddenly spoke casually: "If Mr. Shen really cared about Lan Xi, he would not let a room full of servants be indifferent and rude, let alone let his cousin make trouble unreasonably. Mr. Shen, I would like to ask, When you bring this person to your house, are you here to rest, or are you here to cause trouble?"
This was because of Lan Xi's injustice, but it was even more harsh in Shen Yi's ears.
"Miss Mu really has a deep love for sisters." Shen Yi smiled coldly and looked at Liu Yun with a deeper look.
"It's natural. Mr. Shen, please be kind to my sister. After all, she lost a child because of you." Liu Yun glanced at Xi Chuqing without leaving a trace, and then said, "But, so will Lan Xi from now on." You, the Shen family, will naturally be protected by your Shen family, right?"
Shen Yi frowned. When Mrs. Shen saw this, she immediately responded: "This is natural. Mr. Lan Xi is also the daughter-in-law of our Shen family. Naturally, she will not treat her badly."
"It's best this way, otherwise I'll let down Sister Lan Xi's wishes." Someone became more and more adept at stimulating people. Seeing Shen Yi's increasingly gloomy face, she felt happy in her heart.
