After hearing what Nanny Qin said, Shen Ningyuan was not very surprised.
From the very beginning, she had been prepared for Chen to stop her.
Seeing Nanny Qin's anxious face, Luying was very worried.
He immediately put down the work in his hands and walked towards Shen Ningyuan.
She suggested, "Young Madam, how about letting this servant go out and check the situation first?"
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan shook her head, "You can't solve this matter, you just stay here and clean up that room for me, and I'll go out alone."
The green warbler had no choice but to give up and stayed obediently in Xiyuanju.
Then, Shen Ningyuan looked at Nanny Qin and said, "Let's go to the front yard."
She wanted to see what Chen could do to stop her now.
-
Before he even reached the front yard, he heard Chen's sharp roar: "Where's the young lady? Why hasn't she come over yet?"
"Young Madam, Chen is still waiting for you." Nanny Qin reminded softly.
Shen Ningyuan nodded, "It's okay, don't be afraid of her."
She proposed to beat Hailian to death in the front yard just to show Chen.
She found it strange that Chen wanted to do nothing.
After passing through the doorway, you will arrive at the front yard.
At this time, Chen brought a lot of people and surrounded the front yard.
Seeing Shen Ningyuan appear with such a calm expression, Chen's anger grew even more intense.
Gnashing his teeth, he questioned, “Chen Ningyuan, I just brought you back to the Ji family, why are you showing off again?”
Seeing Shen Ningyuan coming, Hai Lian began to struggle again, shouting hoarsely: "Madam, you must stand up for this slave, I didn't steal anything from the young lady!"
Chen glanced at Hailian, ignored her, and directed her spearhead at Shen Ningyuan.
He continued to ask, "Yunchuan's funeral hasn't even ended yet, and you're beating a servant to death in the front yard. If other prominent families knew about this, what would they think of our Ji family? Have you considered the consequences?"
As soon as Chen finished speaking, Shen Ningyuan directly retorted: “Why should I care about what the outside world thinks of the Ji family?”
"You are the daughter-in-law of the Ji family, how can you not care?" Chen's tone changed.
"Since mother-in-law treats me as a member of the Ji family, then let me ask you, if my things were stolen from the Ji family, and I don't deal with it at home, do I have to send it to the government for processing?"
"What was stolen from you?" Chen asked without thinking.
"Everything in my house, my jewelry, my valuable calligraphy and paintings, the vases and jades on the shelves, were all stolen."
As she spoke, Shen Ningyuan pointed at Hai Lian, who was tied to a wooden bench, and said coldly: “I saw the gold bracelet that I brought with me as a dowry on the wrist of this maid, so I have every reason to suspect that she was the one who stole the things in my room while I was away!”
Chen's face darkened, and she subconsciously asked, "What gold bracelet?"
Shen Ningyuan didn't waste any words and took out the gold bracelet from his sleeve.
When Chen saw the bracelet, her expression changed immediately and she glared at Hailian viciously.
This short-sighted thing, how dare she wear that bracelet so openly on her wrist!
Hailian was glared at by Chen and was so scared that she dared not speak anymore.
Noticing the "interaction" between Chen and Hailian, Shen Ningyuan sneered and deliberately raised the bracelet to Chen. "Mother-in-law, don't you think this is strange? How could a dowry bracelet that was well kept in the private vault be worn on Hailian's wrist?"
Chen's face froze, and she deliberately avoided Shen Ningyuan's gaze, and said hesitantly: "It is indeed strange."
Then he pointed at Hailian fiercely, "It must be this bastard who took the things from your private vault!"
Of course she couldn't admit that she was the one who took the things from Shen Ningyuan's private storage.
At this point, Hailian can only take the blame for her.
Who told her to be so short-sighted that she couldn't wait to put the bracelet on as soon as she got it?
She brought all this upon herself!
Hearing Chen identify herself, Hai Lian instantly became anxious and looked at her in disbelief, "Madam, that bracelet was clearly given by you-"
Bang!
Before Hai Lian could finish her words, Chen rushed up to her and slapped her hard.
"You filthy slave, you stole my master's things, and you still have the nerve to yell like that! It seems my daughter-in-law has spoiled you too much!"
Chen shouted, "Come here, cover her mouth and don't let her make any more noise!"
As soon as Chen finished speaking, the nanny beside her picked up a stone from the flower bed, walked over and stuffed it into Hailian's mouth.
With her mouth blocked and her hands and feet tied by two maids, Hailian could only let out desperate screams of "Ahhhhh".
Seeing this scene, Shen Ningyuan sneered in his heart.
Chen knew exactly who took those things!
The current pretense of covering up is really ridiculous.
After confirming that Hailian would not make any more noise, Chen heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at Shen Ningyuan.
With a smile on his face, he said, "Ning Yuan, this girl has committed a heinous crime. She really deserves to be beaten to death, but Yunchuan's funeral is in two days. Do you think we should delay it for two days and lock her up in the woodshed first? You can deal with her after Yunchuan's funeral."
Looking at Chen's hypocritical face, Shen Ningyuan raised her eyebrows slightly.
Wait two more days?
Are we going to wait for them to secretly kill Hailian so that there is no evidence against her?
She is not a fool!
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan directly refused, “No, it must be dealt with today!”
Chen's face froze.
I didn't expect that Shen Ningyuan is so stubborn now!
After thinking for a moment, Chen continued, "Ning Yuan, it's not that I don't want you to deal with this girl. I'm doing this for your own good! You said you just brought a servant back to the Ji family and you beat her to death. If this gets out, it will affect your reputation. Isn't that right?"
