Chapter 198 Reputation Ruined
The doctor also saw the bruises on Shen Luoxue's body and stepped forward to feel Shen Luoxue's pulse again.
"Madam, judging by your daughter's pulse, she shouldn't have been abused. As for these marks, I'll leave it up to you to figure it out."
Mrs. Shen felt happy when she heard this. She had prepared for Shen Luoxue's innocence to be gone. Now it seems that innocence is still there, but those traces...
The doctor quickly wrote the prescription. Mother Qiu gave the doctor some silver and asked Lihua to boil the medicine.
After receiving the news that Shen Luoxue had been found, the Shenzhou government finally rushed back.
"Madam, how is Luoxue?"
Mrs. Shen wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
"Master, Luoxue was deliberately harmed. When we found her at the gate of Yihong Garden, her clothes were disheveled and she was unconscious. She looked like she had been bullied. So many people saw it. Our Luoxue's reputation is completely ruined. I'm afraid the marriage we had agreed on with the Gu family is over."
Shenzhoufu frowned.
"How come we ended up like this when we were just going out?"
Madam Shen looked at Shenzhou Mansion.
"Master, our Shen family is a prestigious family in the northwest. The only family that could attack Luoxue and cause such a big commotion is probably the Jun family. Besides, Luoxue already had a feud with the Jun family last month."
Shenzhoufu frowned.
"Young Master Jun shouldn't be that kind of person. It's just that his daughter got distracted and went astray. The Jun family wouldn't go so far as to ruin someone's reputation, would they?"
Mrs. Shen spoke hurriedly, her voice filled with tears.
"Why not? Master, have you forgotten? Master, that wife of Master Jun, that Madam Jun only looks kind. How could a woman who opened so many restaurants and even built a mushroom shop and oil press to help the people be simple?"
Chenzhoufu also began to doubt. It was indeed Luoxue who did something wrong last month. He personally took him to the Jun family to apologize, but the Jun family refused to see him. If the Jun family was really so cruel to his daughter because of the last incident, then the relationship with the Jun family would probably become a grudge.
Suddenly a voice was heard.
"Father, mother, how is my eldest sister? I heard about it when I got back and rushed over to see her."
Shenzhoufu looked at Shen Luoyun.
"You went out today too."
Shen Luoyun stepped forward and saluted.
"Father, Mother."
Then he spoke.
"In reply to father, today is the opening of Madam Jun's third restaurant. I was invited to be her guest. I didn't know that my eldest sister encountered such a thing on the street. If I had known, I would have come back earlier."
Upon hearing this, Chenzhou Prefecture spoke hurriedly.
"Did you see Madam Jun today? When?"
Shen Luoxue spoke without changing his expression.
"My eldest sister and I went out together. She said she was going to release river lanterns and make a wish, while I went to Yue Manting to have dinner and chat with Madam Jun. After dinner, we went shopping. Father, I really didn't know that my eldest sister had encountered such a thing. If I had known, I would definitely not have been so distracted that I would not have come back."
Shenzhoufu looked at her.
"Are you sure you've been with Madam Jun all day?"
Shen Luoyun nodded after hearing this.
"Yes, we ate together and went shopping together. Madam Jun also asked me to say hello to my father and gave me a hairpin..."
Mrs. Shen became emotional when she heard this.
"This is impossible, Master. Who else could it be but Madam Jun? There must be something fishy going on."
Shen Luoyun spoke boldly.
"Mother, do you suspect that my eldest sister was kidnapped by Madam Jun? But the time doesn't match. The time I arrived at Yue Manting and the time my eldest sister arrived at the place where the river lanterns were released should be about the same. Madam Jun was clearly right in front of me, and Yue Manting and the place where the river lanterns were released are two streets away. This..."
Madam Shen looked at the hairpin on Shen Luoyun's head, and her face, which used to have a gentle smile, lost its composure.
"You silly girl, someone can bribe you with just a hairpin, but this is your eldest sister."
Shen Luoyun spoke with a look of fear and grievance.
"Mother, don't be angry. Luo Yun knows she's wrong. But, mother, Young Master Jun and Father have a close relationship. It would be bad if there was a misunderstanding. Let's not talk about the fact that we have no evidence. Madam Jun arrived this afternoon and has been with me since I came back. I can't possibly harm my own sister."
Shenzhoufu looked at Shen Luoyun fiercely.
"Luo Yun, you must ensure that every word you say now is true. If your father finds out that you lied, you should understand the consequences."
Shen Luoyun hurriedly spoke after hearing this, but there was no trace of guilt on his face.
"Father, how dare a daughter lie to you? Besides, when I went to Yue Manting, Madam Jun was already waiting in the private room. When Ping'er, who was beside her, came to the door to pick me up, the guests coming and going saw it. After we had dinner, we went to release river lanterns and go shopping together, and others saw it too.
There are so many people on the street, you can find out by just asking around. Besides, in terms of kinship, my eldest sister and I are the closest blood relatives. I'm really worried that my mother will misunderstand, and it would be bad if it affects the relationship between our two families."
Madam Shen opened her mouth and prepared to say something.
"master………"
Chenzhoufu raised his hand to signal her not to speak, and then spoke to Shen Luoyun.
"Let me see your hairpin."
Shen Luoyun raised his hand to take off the hairpin and handed it to Shenzhoufu.
"Yes, father."
Chenzhoufu took the hairpin and looked at it carefully.
"This hairpin is very unique. Father will have a few more made according to the same design so that your sister and younger sisters can each have one. You can go down first."
Shen Luoyun glanced at the hairpin before bowing.
"Yes, father, mother, your daughter will take her leave."
Madam Shen waited for Shen Luoyun to leave before speaking hurriedly.
"Master, even if Su Hanchu really has been staying with Luo Yun, what about Jun Moye? Who knows, maybe this is just because Jun Moye holds a grudge against Luo Xue..."
Chenzhoufu sat down aside. He was exhausted after leading officers and soldiers to search for Shen Luoxue for so long today.
"It can't be Master Jun, because I met Master Jun today. He was discussing with County Magistrate He about allowing the people to raise rice fish in large quantities."
Mrs. Shen's tears fell again.
"Who could it be? Apart from the Jun family, who else would dare to go against our Shen family?"
Chenzhoufu looked at the hairpin in his hand.
"Someone come."
Soon a man dressed as a burgundy guard came in.
"master."
Shenzhoufu handed him the hairpin.
"Go check for yourself to see if this hairpin was bought by Madam Jun and the Second Miss together today."
The guard took the hairpin.
"yes."
And the Jun family at this time.
Su Hanchu was happily taking a bath.
After hiding it for so long, Shen Luoxue was finally dealt with.
He was even humming an unknown song.
"I broke my vow for someone..."
When Jun Moye walked in, he saw Su Hanchu raising his arms in the bathtub.
He raised his hand to signal Ping'er, who was serving him, to go out.
He walked to the bathtub, reached out and picked up the towel to wipe Su Hanchu's back.
"Madam is in such a good mood, it seems that today's work has been accomplished."
