The expression on the Fourth Young Madam's face stiffened for a moment, but she finally chose to cooperate. It was impossible to contribute.
Now that the situation is unclear, she doesn't want to offend anyone, and she doesn't want to support anyone.
Shen Xingwan took Chanyi and Dongqing to the kitchen and flower room in person. One of the stewards of these two places was the eldest wife's dowry nun, and the other was the second wife's confidant.
As a daughter-in-law, the Fourth Young Madam couldn't afford to offend anyone, so she went with Shen Xingwan and just pretended to be silent.
Shen Xingwan didn't care, "Let's just investigate and take the manager away."
Chanyi quickly found the dish in question, and the kitchen manager was about to move the eldest wife out.
Dongqing kicked him over, took him down a few times, tied him up with a rope, threw him on the ground and clapped his hands, "Miss, we've done it."
"Sister-in-law, please help me keep an eye on this person. If something goes wrong, I will explain it to the old lady in person tomorrow," Shen Xingwan warned.
The fourth young lady's eyes twitched as she watched Shen Xingwan lead Dongqing all the way to use force to kill all the stewards in the kitchen and greenhouse, and imprisoned seven or eight people in one room.
While feeling bitter in my heart, I asked someone to inform the eldest wife and the second wife.
The commotion was so loud that it had already spread throughout Shen Yuan, but everyone was silent in tacit agreement. No one spoke or made any move.
The eldest wife and the second wife, after receiving the news, it seemed that nothing had happened and they did not make any statement.
The fourth young lady had no choice but to cooperate carefully, "My sister has arrested so many people, what are you going to do?"
Shen Xingwan yawned, "We'll talk about it tomorrow, sister-in-law, please arrange for someone to help me keep an eye on them tonight."
After saying that, he took the people back to his yard, went to bed early, and recharged his energy.
In the second wife's yard, the lights were brightly lit, and the sixth lady, Shen Ziyin, who was the most crowded in the gambling room, was sitting on a chair with her hair loose.
"Mom, what do you mean by her? She makes such a big noise, for fear that others will not know that she is jumping around."
The second wife glanced at her and said, "Yinyin, you are upset."
Shen Ziyin's beautiful face turned pale, and she was unwilling to give in. She calculated all the way to the end. If Shen Xingwan hadn't come out of nowhere, she would have had the greatest chance of taking over.
After all, she was the daughter she had carefully raised. The second lady sighed and analyzed her carefully, "She is quite smart. Anyway, she is already in the center of the vortex and is being stared at by countless eyes. If someone shows weakness and keeps a low profile, she will only die more." quick."
"So she went against the grain and simply showed her strong side?" Shen Ziyin answered.
The second wife nodded with satisfaction, "The tougher she is, the more capable she is of causing trouble, but everyone will be wary of her."
After all, lunatics are also very troublesome, and they can easily get bitten if they are not dealt with properly.
"The person who did this will not be afraid of her just because of this." Shen Ziyin said disdainfully.
"But I will have some scruples. I can't guarantee that I won't attack her easily before I can kill her with one blow." The second wife said regretfully. She was also waiting and watching.
If Shen Xingwan was really vulnerable, she wouldn't mind taking the opportunity to step on him.
There are many people who hold the same attitude as her. If Shen Xingwan's performance tonight is good, it will at least shock a group of people.
As expected, Jiang was very old, and the second wife basically guessed most of Shen Xingwan's thoughts.
"Just act like you don't know anything. Just treat her like an ordinary sister when you meet her in the future." The second wife warned, "Those who act too early are usually cannon fodder. We can't make wedding dresses for others."
Shen Ziyin nodded, "Don't worry, Mom, I can carry it cleanly."
Shen Xingwan didn't know how many people had insomnia because of her sudden "crazy" last night.
She got up early in the morning, had breakfast, and then led the people to the old lady's yard with great fanfare.
When the maids and wives saw her along the way, they all fled in panic.
Walking to the Chaoyang Hall where the old lady lived, Bai He immediately brought someone out to greet her, "Girl, the old lady is still washing up. You go inside first to drink tea."
Shen Xingwan took a deep breath and made preparations.
He immediately knelt down outside Chaoyang Hall and started wailing loudly, "Old Madam, someone wants to poison me, please make the decision for me!"
The maid who followed behind also knelt on the floor, and the scene was a bit awkward for a while.
Bai He was startled and then knelt down, "Girl, if you have anything to do, please get up first and talk to me first."
Shen Xingwan said sternly, "Whoever wants my life, I will take his life! This matter cannot be ignored like this."
Then he cried again, "Why can't I, a little girl like me, be tolerated by a famous family that we agreed to have, and there are actually people who are deliberately trying to kill me..."
Those who were lucky enough to witness this scene: I have never seen such a tormented girl...
Just when Shen Xingwan felt his voice became hoarse, the door opened, and Grandma Zhou walked out with a serious face, "Old madam, please come in."
Then he ordered Bai He, "Please invite the Fourth Young Madam, the Eldest Madam, and the Second Madam to come over."
Soon, several major owners of the Shen Mansion gathered in Chaoyang Hall.
Shen Xingwan accepted everyone's scrutiny without changing his expression, and calmly told the story about the poisoning and sleep disturbance.
"Please make the decision, old lady and ladies." Shen Xingwan said so, but his attitude was quite tough and he had to give an explanation.
Behind the scenes, the Shen family, a century-old clan that has been passed down for generations, is not trying to protect the murderer, right?
"When something like this happens, severe punishment will naturally be required." The old lady expressed her stance first.
A high-ranking aristocrat, no matter how fiercely they fight internally and externally, they still need to save face.
The eldest lady said, "Then I wonder what the lady wants to do with it?"
Shen Xingwan said sternly, "Of course we must conduct a strict investigation and find out the murderer behind the scenes."
The fourth young lady personally led people to investigate. From morning to night, of course, there was no result.
He punished several maids and women to take the blame, and severely punished the people in the kitchen and greenhouse to serve as a warning to others.
"Are you satisfied, young lady?" the eldest lady asked tiredly. After sitting there all day, she just wanted to go back and rest quickly.
"I was too angry last night and was too rude to the people in the kitchen and greenhouse. Will they not hold grudges? What if they are provoked to poison me again?" Shen Xingwan said innocently.
The eldest lady looked at her speechlessly for a while, not wanting to continue arguing with her, "What does the girl want to do?"
"Let's open a small kitchen in my yard. That will be good for everyone, right?"
The eldest wife didn't have a daughter to compete for this position anyway. She just wanted to get it over with quickly. Thinking that Shen Xingwan was so tormented, she would just obey her once and there would be no loss.
"Okay." The eldest lady nodded.
Shen Xingwan took the opportunity to give the fourth young lady a booklet, which recorded in detail various problems of the maids and wives in her yard.
The fourth young lady faced a thick booklet, one with two heads.
Shen Xingwan kept working hard until night, and finally succeeded in finding all the wives and maids in the courtyard and sending them away.
As for the new candidates, it doesn't matter. The fourth young lady will choose someone, and Shen Xingwan will choose the remaining people.
When they walked out of Chaoyang Hall, the eldest wife, second wife, and fourth young lady all looked tired, but Shen Xingwan was in high spirits after having achieved his goal.
Sure enough, going crazy is useful, struggling is useful!
