Chapter 293 Wan'er must go with me!
"That means I didn't get poisoned to death, and I have to thank the mother and daughter for showing mercy?" Shen Wan put away her messy thoughts and looked at Shen Yizhou with a mocking expression.
After hearing this, Shen Yizhou couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
In the past, this little niece listened to him the most and always liked to stick to him when she had nothing to do. When did she become so sharp-tongued?
Seeing the look of doubt on his face, Shen Wan quickly lowered her head to avoid Shen Yizhou's sharp gaze.
This man's gaze was so terrifying, as if it could penetrate his body and see into the deepest part of his heart.
Xie Mubai also got off the carriage.
He has a title, and Chen Wan is a princess personally appointed by the dog emperor, so naturally they don't have to kneel like other people.
"I have already given Shen Yan the letter of withdrawal from the engagement." Xie Mubai slowly walked forward and held Shen Wan's hand tightly. "Now it has nothing to do with her who I want to marry."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yizhou couldn’t help but get furious: “Xie Mubai, you’re going too far!”
"Your marriage to Yan'er was arranged by the Duke of Zhenguo and the Marquis of Xiangyang. Now that the Duke's Mansion has fallen on hard times, it's a blessing for you that Yan'er is willing to marry you."
"How could you abandon her and even reach out your evil hands to Wan'er?"
"You're old and still want to eat young grass. Do you have any shame?"
"No, Wan'er must come with me today!"
He became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and got out of the car angrily.
Seeing that Shen Yizhou wanted to use force, Xie Mubai became annoyed and pulled Shen Wan behind him.
He didn't understand why he was old.
The old Grand Tutor is like this, and so is Shen Yizhou!
"As long as I'm here, no one can take Wan'er away!" He had a gloomy face and a terrifyingly sharp gaze.
That cold gaze made even the battle-hardened Shen Yizhou feel a chill down his spine.
As expected, a good father will have a good son.
This look is just like that of the Duke of Zhenguo!
Shen Wan, however, looked very happy. It felt good to be a little woman hiding behind him.
With the big villain around, I don’t have to worry about being exposed.
“Nonsense!” Shen Yizhou took a deep breath and shouted sternly, “Wan’er is my niece, why can’t I take her away?”
"Besides, you two have no matchmaker or engagement. If Wan'er were to follow you blindly like this, her reputation would be ruined for the rest of her life!"
"If you really like her, you should let her go and marry your Chen Yan honestly!"
He didn't understand. Chen Yan was beautiful and was the legitimate daughter, so why did this sickly guy look down on her?
"Sir Shen, I think it's better to discuss this in private." Xie Mubai sneered, not disguising the mockery in his eyes. "In front of so many people, some things are really inconvenient to say. I'm afraid you'll lose face!"
"Didn't you accept the complaint from that old woman?"
"Since I've accepted it, I think it's better to try it sooner rather than later."
Shen Yizhou's face turned pale.
Although he was busy with official duties, thanks to Xie Mubai's deliberate arrangements, Chen Yan's romantic affairs spread all over the country, and even he had heard a little about it.
When he heard that Shen Yan's pants were stripped off in public, he was so angry that he almost fainted.
"Okay, let's talk about it later." Shen Yizhou thought for a moment and looked at him coldly, "This old woman is suing you for kidnapping her son and forcing her daughter-in-law to do hard labor. Do you plead guilty?"
Xie Mubai was about to speak when he heard the drunkard's mother burst into tears: "My Lord, it doesn't matter whether they admit their guilt or not. In fact, all we need to do is close down the workshop and rescue those women."
After learning about the identities of Shen Wan and Xie Mubai, even if she had the courage, she would not dare to delve into the matter any further.
You can't write two characters for "沉" with one stroke.
She would never believe that the imperial envoy would punish his niece just for an old woman like her.
Upon hearing this, the drunkard immediately became anxious.
"What about my hand?" He raised his bloody hand and looked at Shen Yizhou crying, "Sir, if you don't believe me, ask your niece if she broke my hand bones!"
Even if this woman cannot be sent to jail, at least she should pay for her medical expenses.
If a hand can be exchanged for food and clothing for the rest of your life, it is still a great deal.
Shen Wan pretended to be surprised: "What are you talking about? I have no grudge against you, why would I step on your hand?"
Seeing her deny it, the drunkard's eyes turned red with anger.
"You dare not admit what you did?" He shouted harshly, "And these injuries on me, weren't they caused by you fighting with those people in town?"
If this girl was not the niece of the imperial envoy, he really wanted to curse her ancestors for eighteen generations.
After hearing this, Dafu Niang spat at him viciously: "Bah, do you dare to tell me why everyone beat you?"
She quickly crawled in front of Shen Zhizhou and kowtowed heavily.
"Your Excellency, I am the wife of this drunkard." Dafu Niang said with red eyes and choked sobs, "This drunkard can't support his family. The young lady took pity on me and let me work in the workshop to make a living."
"But these drunkard mother and son are not human beings. They actually want to sell me!"
"The young lady and the sisters in the workshop couldn't stand it, so a conflict broke out."
"This drunkard was so cruel and ruthless that he even beat up one of our sisters and caused her to give birth prematurely."
"To be honest, we are planning to drive to the county town to file a complaint on behalf of that sister!"
After seeing the two carriages in front of him, Shen Yizhou believed her words a little more.
"Nonsense!" the drunkard cursed, his eyes red and his teeth gnashing. "It's obvious that you're all in the same gang, that's why you've teamed up to slander me!"
"I didn't push anyone down, I'm the victim!"
After hearing this, Shen Wan smiled and asked, "I just came to this town not long ago, why are they helping me to frame you?"
When the others heard this, they quickly agreed.
"Yeah, this beast is not a human at all!"
"He was a thief and drunkard, too lazy to even work. He nearly starved his wife and children to death!"
After listening to everyone's words, Shen Yizhou's expression gradually changed.
Seeing his bad face, the drunkard's mother rolled her eyes and immediately said, "Sir, my son is lazy and has many bad habits, but it is absolutely true that he was beaten."
"Look at the injuries on his body. It's impossible that he fell down himself."
After hearing this, Black Hawk winked at a man in the crowd.
The man understood and sneered, "That's hard to say."
"Didn't your son almost have his legs broken when he peeped at the young widow bathing?"
When the drunkard's mother heard this, she immediately became anxious: "Nonsense, that's not true!"
"My son is very well behaved. He would never do such a thing."
The man sneered strangely after hearing this: "If he can sleep in the same bed with his own mother, what else can't he do?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene.
This is impossible?
Although the mother and son were not good people, they would not do such a dirty thing.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Shen Yizhou's face darkened and he shouted sternly.
The man kowtowed and said calmly, "I didn't lie."
"I've seen this before. This beast put his own mother's underwear in his arms and even slept with her while sleeping outside. At that time, I mistakenly thought it was his wife's."
"If he hadn't let it slip because he was drunk, I would never have believed that such a despicable beast existed in the world!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yizhou winked at the guard.
The guard stepped forward and reached out to the drunkard.
"If I can't find it, I'll beat you to pieces!" The drunkard roared at the man viciously with red eyes.
The drunkard mother saw it and felt inexplicably uneasy.
She had a vague feeling that today's matter might be a little tricky.
