Chapter 339: Poor Little Child in Ancient Times (22)

The warehouse is so important, not to mention that the whole Shen family is coming back, and all the food, clothing and other expenses will have to be paid from it.

Early the next morning, the servant who was going out to purchase something opened the door of the storeroom and couldn't help screaming loudly, attracting the nanny and the old woman in charge.

Looking at the empty storehouse, everyone was shocked and terrified. Where was the money? Where were the boxes and cages filled with various treasures?

Gone, all gone.

When Old Madam Shen learned about this, she was so shocked that she rolled her eyes and almost died suddenly.

The serving maid tried to comfort him fearfully for a while, and then was taken to see the old lady who refused to believe in evil.

Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you experience the feeling of despair.

To be honest, the things that were pulled in were not much, just three or four trucks. A cunning rabbit has three burrows. The Shen family has worked hard for so many years, and they have assets from their ancestors. There is no way they can have only this little property. But anyone would be vomiting blood if they lost property for nothing.

Old Madam Shen had a gloomy face, her thoughts were complicated and her brain was working fast. Yesterday, even her son couldn't subdue the evil creature Shen Yongen, and was humiliated instead. Today's incident, no matter how she explained it, was definitely related to her.

What might be done?

Using status and filial piety to pressure her? That's just a scoundrel, useless.

Suppress with force? Her son and grandson have shown her through their actions that this approach will not work.

Old Madam Shen covered her chest with her hands, feeling both painful and stuffy inside, and she was very angry.

The servant next to her carefully watched the master's face, thought again and again, and finally reminded her: "Old Madam... today's shopping will be waiting for you at noon..."

Mrs. Shen: "..."

That’s right, it’s so ridiculous. If they don’t pay the money, the Shen family, the Zhen’an Mansion, won’t even have food to eat!

It's all Shen Yongen's fault. She said that everything eaten and used in the mansion belonged to her, and they couldn't be so shameless as to take advantage of their daughter and granddaughter!

Outrageous! Treasonous!

Old Madam Shen lived a smooth life, but in her later years she would embarrass herself in front of her granddaughter and be humiliated throughout the northwest.

"...First, go open the box in my room."

After feeling resentful, she quickly made a decision to save the Shen family's reputation first. Otherwise, what else could she do? After this incident, she would definitely deal with that evildoer!

Thinking of this, Madam Shen had a gloomy face and asked someone to call Shen's mother over and told her about the loss of the warehouse.

Mother Shen had been taking care of her husband the whole night, worried about his injuries. She hadn't gotten enough rest and her mind was in a fuss. When she heard what the old lady said, she didn't react for a moment. What did she mean by "things in the warehouse were gone"?

Although they only brought three or four carts yesterday, those large boxes were not easy to move. They were filled with valuables and hundreds of thousands of silver coins. How could they be gone? Where were the servants guarding them?

According to the old lady, could it be that those things grew wings and flew away?

She felt that the old lady was joking with her.

Old Madam Shen's face looked unhappy. Seeing suspicion in Shen's mother's eyes made her even angrier. She even smashed a teacup to express her anger.

Mother Shen's gaze narrowed slightly, but her doubts were not dispelled. She asked a few more questions, but the old lady still gave the same answer.

Mother Shen: “…” Hehe.

"What do you mean by looking at me? This is most likely caused by that evil creature. I don't know what evil he did in his previous life to attract such a debt collector to the Shen family!"

Mother Shen felt very uncomfortable with her mother-in-law's indirect criticism, as the child was not hers alone. However, it also reminded her that it was very likely that Shen Yongen did it. But again, how did she do it?

The two were puzzled and did not dare to ask her.

However, although money is important, Shen Ping's injuries are more important.

As for the theft in the warehouse, they could only suffer in silence for the time being and wait for the reckoning in the future.

However, it seems that there is still a long way to go before "after autumn".

At noon, Shen Ruyi found Shen Ping and his wife in the yard. Seeing her father lying there with a pale face, she felt a little uncomfortable. Her father, who had always been brave and tall, was knocked down by his second sister one day and was injured like this.

This really damages the other person's image in her mind.

Shen Ruyi lowered her eyebrows and comforted her mother: "Don't worry, Dad will get better."

Mother Shen was applying ice to her face. The red palm prints from yesterday's slapping had finally faded. She nodded and finally had the leisure to ask her daughter about her condition: "Did you get a good rest last night?"

"Can you get lunch?"

Shen Ruyi shook her head and said, "I'm worried about you. I can't eat."

"Silly girl, mother is fine. She hasn't eaten yet, so come and eat with her."

The maidservant next to them was very considerate and brought in the lunch that had been prepared long ago. There were ten plates of different sizes, with a wide variety of dishes, which was very rich.

"Eat more, dear."

Shen Ruyi smiled obediently and picked up the chopsticks...

"Hey, what delicious food are you hiding from? Are you two trying to eat it alone?!"

The words came before the person arrived, but the sarcastic voice successfully made the two people stiffen.

Heshan rushed in with a big knife and a bad look on his face, followed by Mrs. Zhao who was trying to stop him in a panic.

She glanced at the table and became even angrier: "You are going too far! My father, my elder brother, and my younger brother are all lying in bed, and you are in a good mood eating and drinking here!"

"You are so heartless and cruel! You don't deserve to be human!!"

Shen's mother and Shen Ruyi: "......?"

Shen's mother said angrily: "What are you going crazy about again!"

He Shan's eyes widened in disbelief: "How dare you quibble!"

"I can't eat or sleep because of my dear family, but you guys are so good that you don't worry or feel sad, and you even enjoy yourself behind everyone's back!"

"I want justice for my father and my elder and younger brothers!"

Shen's mother and Shen Ruyi were the ones who were truly in disbelief. They couldn't believe that there were such shameless people in the world.

Didn't you beat up your father and your elder brother? ! Why are you pretending here! !

Just as they were about to say this angrily, they saw the man rushing towards them angrily and overturning the table.

“Huahuala—”

The table was overturned and of course the food was also overturned.

“Ah ...

Shen Ruyi stood up tremblingly and stamped her feet, trying to shake off the food juice on her body. She was so angry that she pulled the wound on her calf in the process. She grimaced in pain and was in unbearable pain.

Shen's mother was even more unlucky. The food spilled on her head. Perhaps the evil of Heshan had not penetrated into her heart, so the first thing she reacted to was to teach him a lesson. She took three or two steps forward and raised her hand to slap the man.

To be honest, at that moment, Heshan wanted to chop off her hand...

In the end, she didn't do it. She bent the other person's wrist back, allowing Shen's mother to perform a slap herself.

"Snapped"

The noise is quite loud.

The room was silent for a moment.

Mother Shen could no longer hold back. She had been harboring a fire in her heart since yesterday. The smooth sailing days made her unable to bear the humiliation, so she endured the pain, changed her hand, and continued to slap him.

Heshan was surprised, then did not hesitate.

Well, if you insist on having neither hand, you can satisfy me.
