Chapter 48 I Don’t Believe It
Shen Lanyue was stunned for a moment.
It was the maidservant beside her who reacted and said, "There's a thief! Catch him!"
Shen Lanyue finally came to her senses. Looking at her empty hands and listening to the old woman's words, she trembled and said, "Hurry up and report to the authorities. We must get the silver back."
This is my mother's coffin book.
The man disappeared into the crowd.
They didn't even see the man's appearance clearly, so what would it matter if they reported him to the police?
It's just another unsolved case.
Sure enough, when Shen Lanyue came out of the Ministry of Justice, she looked like an eggplant hit by frost, with a wilted look.
The people from the Ministry of Justice just told her to go back and wait.
As for how long to wait?
No one could answer her question.
That was over 20,000 taels of silver, and she hadn't even warmed it up yet! It just disappeared without a trace...
What can she use to support Hongsheng?
Shen Lanyue was so angry that her eyes went dark and she passed out.
"Madam, Madam..."
Of course, they didn't dare to bring this matter to Qin's face.
In less than half an hour, the money box appeared in front of Xie Changning.
Xie Changning asked Mother Du to keep it.
Princess Mansion.
Shen Jingyun didn't know when she fainted. When she woke up, there was only a maid guarding her.
"Aunt, you are finally awake. Do you want some water?" The girl looked pale and thin, about twelve or thirteen years old.
Shen Jingyun's throat was burning, and she slowly looked around.
The room smelled of mold, and apart from the bed, there was only a table and two chairs, nothing else.
There was a set of green tea set on the table, which was obviously not worth much.
Even the maidservant beside her lived a much more comfortable life than this.
This is how Song Wenjing treated her!!!
This was the man she wanted to marry despite her mother's objections.
How ironic!
After the maid fed her a cup of warm water, she regained some energy and could barely speak. She pushed the maid beside her away, got off the couch barefoot, and walked quickly towards the door.
She wants to go home.
Yes, she wants to go home...
She would go back no matter what.
"Auntie, you are not well yet, what are you going to do?" The little girl rushed forward and tried to stop her.
"Get out of here! I want to go back to the Marquis' Mansion. Also, don't call me aunt. I'm not some aunt!" She had already seen through what kind of person Song Wenjing was. If she didn't go back, would she stay here and wait to die?
"Auntie, you can't..." The little girl wanted to say something, but was pushed to the ground by her.
Shen Jingyun rushed to open the door.
She never expected that the door would open before she even exerted any strength.
"What do you want to do, Aunt?" Two ferocious-looking old women walked in.
Shen Jingyun was a little flustered. She couldn't help but take a step back, "All of you get out of my way. I want to go back to the Marquis' Mansion."
She said it with confidence.
"Haha... why go back to the Marquis' Mansion? This is where you belong." The two old women laughed sarcastically.
Shen Jingyun was furious. She showed her usual demeanor and said with full force, "Get out of here, you two bitches! I'm the fourth daughter of the Marquis's family. Who dares to stop me today?"
"It's the fourth young lady of the Marquis' Mansion!" One of the maids grabbed her hair and slapped her face left and right. The crisp sound of slaps never stopped.
"You dare to hit me? I'm going to kill you, you lowly slave." Shen Jingyun resisted desperately.
Another woman grabbed her hands and kicked her legs.
Shen Jingyun cried out and knelt heavily on the ground.
"Early this morning, news came out of the Marquis' Mansion that the Fourth Young Lady had suddenly fallen ill and passed away last night. What kind of Fourth Young Lady are you? You still want to go back? Where can you go back to?"
"Ah, bah, you will never be able to return in this lifetime. There is no place for you in the Marquis' Mansion. Please remember your identity, my aunt. You are just a concubine who is not worthy of being on the stage. From now on, you can only wag your tail and beg for mercy."
The two women exchanged a few words, and in just a few words, they pushed Shen Jingyun into the abyss.
With a bang, her mind went blank.
"No, no, mother would never do this to me..." She shook her head desperately. Even when the slap landed on her face, she didn't feel any pain at all.
She had only one thought left.
That is, her mother doesn't want her anymore...
She was born after her mother carried her for ten months. How could her mother not want her?
From last night till now, she has been looking forward to her mother coming to take her home.
She was bewitched by Song Wenjing, and it was her fault. But even so, her mother couldn't just abandon her!
"No, you must be lying to me. I want to go back, I want to see my mother, I want to ask her in person whether this is true?" Shen Jingyun looked like a madman. She pushed the two old women away fiercely, turned around and rushed out.
Aunt Gui had already arrived with her people.
She was watching from the side. The two vicious old women wanted to chase Shen Jingyun. Nanny Gui gave them a look and she led her people to follow Shen Jingyun.
Even the guards at the door did not stop Shen Jingyun.
Shen Jingyun left the princess's mansion as she wished.
There were people coming and going on the street. She stood barefoot and in a mess in the crowd, unable to move.
Suddenly, she reached out and grabbed a passerby, a middle-aged man. "I'm the fourth daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an. Could you please take me back home? When I get back, I'll give you a large sum of money as a reward."
