Returned to the house.
Chunjun replaced most of the servants in the house, including the housekeeper. She was as gentle as water, but she was vigorous and resolute in her work.
Shen Zhi went to Shen Hua's courtyard.
The brother and sister didn't know what they said, and Shen Hua's eyes were red.
"Son."
Yicui enters from the outside.
"There is news from the concierge. The elders of the Shen family are leading the elders of the Shen family outside to ask for a meeting."
Shen Zhi's eyes were slightly cold.
"Don't let A Niang show up."
"Invite people to the main hall, and I'll come over.
"Let Brother Cui borrow the Ji Qing next to him."
When he left, Shen Hua followed him subconsciously for a few steps, and finally paused to secretly wipe his tears.
Shen Zhi had just entered the main hall. His expression was unclear.
"Is the clan leader here to plead for mercy?"
"no."
"That clan leader is fighting like this..."
His eyes glanced around.
"What's the meaning?"
Mr. Chen never thought that Shen Zhi would ask so directly.
He pretended to be mourning: "Ah Shen Pheasant."
"We also know what happened today. Shen Wei did not do the right thing! My child, we are not here to defend him."
"He deserves to be punished for the mistakes he made. Even though my heart aches, I know there will be retribution."
The voice of the old Shen clan member changed.
"But I really feel sorry for you brothers and sisters. How is Yangyang doing now? Your mother-in-law is soft-tempered. Orphaned and widowed, you have to focus on studying and can't care too much. How can you live without a pillar in the family? I This old man just wants to help you with the hard work. From now on, there will always be someone to support you."
That's really polite to say.
Shen Zhi couldn't bear to say anything.
"Don't bother! If you are afraid that life will be difficult for us, it is better to go and redeem your son and pay back the money."
"It depends on how you are born. Is it possible that we will harm you?"
Elder Shen: "You, please don't get along with us."
"Yes, we all grew up seeing you."
"Uncle, I feel sorry for you too."
Shen Zhi still smiled: "This is true for close relatives, let alone an outsider."
"Elders don't need to say high-sounding words. Just say that you want to rob the embroidery workshop. Today, I put down my words. This is absolutely impossible."
"The embroidery workshop is my grandma's hard work, no one can take it away."
These words made those who came over very popular.
"What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Xiufang's surname is Shen."
"If you pursue an official career in the future, who will take care of the embroidery workshop?"
Even though it was clear, I don’t know when it came.
"Master Shen."
Ji Qing interrupted as if he was embarrassed: "Why do you let everyone in the house? A group of old men who rely on their old age are making noises about our master taking a lunch break."
"My subordinates think it would be better to drive him out."
Elder Shen:???
After all, he didn't dare to offend Cui Yun.
"This... this place is far away from Mr. Cui's courtyard."
Ji Qingqing looked down and said: "Are you saying that our master has slandered you?"
"No...don't dare."
Then, a group of people were really kicked out.
Outside the door of Shen's house were all onlookers. They were all stunned.
Ji Qing clapped his hands and threw the broom to the ground.
"County Magistrate Liu has invited our father to live with Liu's family over and over again. He is here just to make friends with Mr. Shen. Naturally, he does not allow some people to take themselves too seriously and come to get Qiao."
His voice suddenly became louder: "More than a dozen people! Entering the house rashly! Why don't the whole family move here to live in Mingqiang! I don't know what I mean, but I have the nerve to act as an elder here? If something like this happens, Mr. Shen After all, we are still living well now, but the elder of the Shen family led a group of people to come over to fight for the family property, which is a bit ugly."
"Let everyone take a look and see if you have the nerve to come again!"
Spectator:???
These people are really not ashamed.

At night.
Inside the prison, it was damp and dark, the pitted walls were mottled with stains and bloodstains, and the hanging oil lamps gave off a weak light.
With a 'pop' sound, two lamps were extinguished.
Shen Zhi went to the cell.
When he arrived, Shen Wei was already huddled in a corner, his whole body twitching with pain.
Seeing him coming, Shen Hewen eagerly stretched out his hand through the wooden door.
"Brother Pheasant, are you here to save us?"
"I knew you were a good boy."
"After all, we are a family. There is no overnight feud. Shen Hua is going to get married after all. Besides, she is fine now."
Seeing him coming, tears flashed in Shen Wei's eyes.
"When can I get out?"
In his opinion, nothing happened to Shen Hua. Xue Miaoyan had spent money to buy her in the first place. When the relationship was established, a fake sale deed would be issued, and the slaves would be executed in the house. The Yamen would have nothing to do with it.
Shen Zhi was dressed in a brocade robe, he was a scholar but he was also noble. He just looked at Shen Wei who was wearing a prison uniform with anklets and didn't say anything.
The prisoners in the cells were all unkempt. There was an unspeakable smell of ugliness and filth in the air.
"Daddy just lost his mind for a moment. Just be obedient and help me and your grandma explain."
Shen Zhi gave a slight appeasing smile.
"My son can come here because of Mr. Cui's sake. I can't stay too long."
"My father is in poor health now, so don't get angry. County Magistrate Liu is an upright official and does not accept any bribes. But my son will find a way to get you out."
He confuses people with every word: "You must remember that my mother and I will not pursue Yangyang's matter. As for Xue Mouyan, it was my second uncle who killed him and has nothing to do with you."
Shen Wei hurriedly said: "Yes, yes!"
Shen Hewen's eyes were bloodshot when he heard this.
Look, brotherhood is so fragile.
When Shen Zhi came out of the cell, he turned cold and handed the money bag in his sleeve to the guard.
"Please take good care of me."
The Yamen servant dared not accept it, so he hurriedly said: "Your Excellency has just sent a message and has given orders."
"Take this as your hard-earned money. You can use it to buy wine."
The yamen servant smiled and showed his yellow teeth.
soon.
Shen Wei and Shen Hewen were kicked into another cell by the officer.
The yamen servant spat on Shen Wei.
"I have seen people harming people's lives, but I have never seen people harming my own flesh and blood."
Shen Wei felt humiliated and wiped it with nausea. But what could he do? His whole body was trembling.
"How dare you do this to me!"
The officer mercilessly locked him up, turned around and left.
You still don't know how to regret it. Now you are still thinking about someone to save him, right?
Including him and Shen Hewen, there were three other people in this cell.
One was lying curled up on the ground, dying. The other was flatteringly beating the legs of a middle-aged man who was sitting on the straw with a greedy and fierce look in his eyes.
This was specifically stated by County Magistrate Liu.
‘Special consideration’
Shen Wei coughed so hard that he felt heartbroken.
"Second brother, help me up."
Shen Hewen was very angry, with a thick frost on his face: "Shen Wei, you have hurt me, and you still want me to do your bidding?"
"You——" Shen Wei couldn't believe it.
"What are you? I killed someone to flatter you! How could I have gotten to this point without you!"
"Why can you go out and I still have to suffer here?"
Shen Wei was so angry that his whole body was shaking.
There was a voice that was as cold and smooth as a snake, enough to make one's whole body shiver.
