Chapter 68 Arson Murderer
Early the next morning, Mr. Shen heard that he had heard that Zhuyuan was on fire last night, so he rushed back from the dock. Chen Qiang heard that his sister's house had a fire and also filed a fuss with the court and rushed back. Chen Qiang entered the door and rushed towards his Wangzhuyuan. Seeing Wan Xin safe and sound, he felt relieved, "Sister, this Shen Mansion is a dragon and tiger den. Brother, please see if there is a suitable house. Let's move out."
Wan Xin laughed at him, "Does brother have so much silver now?"
When Chen Qiang heard Yinzi, he put his hand behind his head and scratched his head awkwardly, "Brother, I will work hard. If I can't, I'll borrow some money."
"You have just returned to the capital and have just entered the court. How can you manage your colleagues' borrowing money?" Wan Xin quickly asked Chen Qiang to give up this unreliable idea.
"Sister, tell me what happened yesterday?" Chen Qiang looked at his sister seriously. Now Chen Wanxin is his closest person in the world. Although he has a closest father, his relationship with his father is as indifferent as water. How could he compare to Shangwanxin? "I heard that you were poured cold water by Liu during the day yesterday?" At this point, Chen Qiang was so angry that he smashed his fist hard at the table.
Chen Wanxin lowered her eyelids and said softly, "It's nothing, don't worry about me, don't worry about me, don't you think I'm fine. You don't worry about this inner house. I've already asked my father to come back to uphold justice. Just look at me later."
"Miss, the master is in the front hall. It is said that everyone has arrived, so I'll wait for you." Mingyue looked up at Chen Qiang, who looked serious and spoke tremblingly.
Wan Xin discovered Mingyue's expression and knew that the black-faced god's eldest brother was scared by the maid again, "Okay, I'll go there now. Brother, can you go with me?"
"This is naturally. I think they will bully you because I haven't been in the mansion these days. In the future, my brother won't live in the office. If I am there, I will see who dares them!" Chen Qiang hit the table again with an iron fist. The bang scared Mingyue.
"Okay, okay, stop smashing it, and it will break if it hits the table again." Wan Xin stopped Chen Qiang from smashing the table for the third time. This table was carefully selected and bought by her. How could Chen Qiang smash it into pieces in just a few seconds?
Chen Mansion Front Hall
"Master, please calm down." Liu stood beside Mr. Shen, stretched out his hand to stroke Mr. Shen's back and calmed him down.
"How did you let me calm down? Now someone is still plotting to murder Wanxin. Do you know that Wanxin will enter the palace to meet the saint in the future. At this critical moment, the saint blames it. Our Shen family's water transportation is not closed yet!" Mr. Shen looked at everyone with a blue face and looked serious.
When Wan Xin entered the door, he happened to hear Mr. Shen saying the words of the Shen family's Shuiyun. I believe Chen Qiang also heard it, because Wan Xin felt the crunching sound of his elder brother's clenched fists. His daughter was almost in a state of fire. As a father, he was not worried about his daughter's comfort, but was concerned about his own business. After Chen Qiang heard it, his feelings for his father became a little colder.
"Wanxin, you are here. How did you rest yesterday? The eldest young master is here too." The fourth concubine Jiang saw Wanxin and Shen Qiang come to the front hall and quickly greeted him. "I didn't expect that Wanxin would fit me even more when I put on my clothes." Jiang said without a trace that he was concerned about Wanxin's safety, and even gave her all her clothes.
Sure enough, when Mr. Shen heard this, he praised and said to Jiang, "Wanxin's clothes were burned yesterday, but you were still thoughtful. Girl, tomorrow you will go to the street to buy a few ready-made clothes and wear them for the time being. When you have time, let the tailor come to the mansion and take care of your clothes again." After that, he glanced at Liu without any trace.
Although Mr. Shen didn't say anything, Mr. Liu also felt Mr. Shen's dissatisfaction. After all, she was the mistress of the house. This little thing actually made a fourth aunt take the lead. "My clothes are not as good as my sister. It's really a blessing for the Chen Mansion to have a sister to help me cook the Chen Mansion."
"Okay, I was on fire yesterday, so why would you like to ask for good luck?" Mr. Shen scolded Liu coldly. This was the first time Mr. Shen expressed dissatisfaction with Liu in public. Liu was startled by the sudden accusation. Chen Rufei heard Mr. Shen scolding her mother and also turned a blind eye. Her mother has always been favored by her father. Even if the fourth aunt came, her father never expressed any dissatisfaction with her mother. Now in front of the second and third rooms, she is actually accusing her mother of being unfavorable for doing things, and all this is caused by Chen Wanxin.
After Mr. Shen finished speaking, he might also feel that he was a little too much, and coughed awkwardly and continued, "Wanxin, I heard that you claimed yesterday that someone wanted to harm you and set fire to death. Do you have any evidence?"
Wan Xin took a step forward and bowed respectfully to Mr. Shen, "My daughter has only been back from the countryside for a month. I don't know what she has done, and she is so hated. Moreover, her daughter will enter the palace to meet the saint the next day. At this critical moment, she will not only cause her daughter to be famous but will also cause the Shen family's water fortune. The consequences will be unimaginable." Chen Wan Xin said not to mention who the murderer was, but to tell the possible consequences of this incident. Although Mr. Shen had just thought that his business would be implicated, Chen Wanxin has made it clear again, which will further deepen Mr. Shen's resentment towards the murderer.
The third concubine Wu also opened her mouth and said, "Wanxin, I think it was just an accident when I left yesterday..." Shen Dong'er pulled her sleeves timidly behind Wu. Wu felt her daughter's actions and suddenly stopped talking.
Wan Xin looked at Wu with cold eyes. Wu couldn't help but shrink his neck when facing this gaze that seemed to be trying to capture people's bones. Shen Dong'er even more, and immediately hid behind Wu and looked elsewhere. "The third aunt said this, it was not an accident yesterday..."
"Then do you have evidence?" When Liu saw the third aunt, the fourth aunt opened her mouth to express her opinions. How could she fall behind them?
"Of course my daughter has one. In recent days, there have been many insects and ants in my daughter's yard, so she sent Mingyue to the street to buy some sulfur. My daughter evenly sprinkled the sulfur at the door and outside the courtyard wall. Before the fire yesterday, I heard someone talking outside the door, and then it caught fire. Now, just check who has sulfur on the sole of the shoe, you will know who the murderer is!" As soon as Chen Wanxin finished speaking, Liu couldn't help but take a step back, and his eyes met Chen Wanxin's eyes.
Chen Wanxin looked at Liu and smiled slightly. The smile made Liu's body feel cold involuntarily. The coldness penetrated into the bone marrow. The next side, Wanxin slowly raised his jade arm and pointed to the direction where Liu was standing.
Liu was ashamed. It was dark last night and he didn't notice whether there was sulfur under his feet. Now Chen Wanxin said this, her soles must be covered with sulfur powder. Now she really couldn't wash it even if she jumped to the Yellow River. Chen Rufei saw Liu, who was ashen and looked at her inexplicably...
Chen Wanxin smiled and said five words to Liu's direction, "The murderer is you!"
