Chapter 47: Constable
Shen Wuyou: "Shen Ercheng, since the money is so high per month, why don't you bring Shen Guangzong into the Chen Mansion? Don't say you are thinking about my nephew again"
"When my father was alive, your relationship with him was not that good. You didn't give this opportunity to make money to your son, but gave it to me, your nephew. You can't even fool yourself when you tell me this, right? Who else can you fool?"
Hearing this, Shen Ercheng sobbed and said, "I didn't expect that I was misunderstood for my nephew. What can I do for him?"
"I just feel guilty about my deceased elder brother. When he was alive, we had a misunderstanding for a lifetime. Woohoo, I just want to make up for my guilt towards my elder brother by passing it on to you, my nephew!"
When Shen Wuyou heard this, he really didn't understand why Shen Ercheng made such a fuss today.
They've torn their faces apart! Even if he and his brother went back to the Shen family today, it would be impossible for them to believe anything he said. His behavior today seemed to be just to make him and his brother go back.
At this time, Shen Ercheng was extremely anxious. The Third Master sent a message saying that tomorrow night, Chen Yuanwai would come to meet his nephew in person. Who knew that his nephew would marry into the Xu family.
The Xu family is in the middle of the village, and it would be easier for him to do it if his nephew didn't live at the end of the village near the foot of the mountain. When the time comes, Mr. Chen can get some drugs and scream in his nephew's thatched cottage, and no villagers will hear him!
Xu Zhiyi looked at Shen Ercheng and said coldly, "Oh, don't think I don't know what you are planning! Shen Wuyou and Shen Changan have already married into my Xu family, so they are mine! They are even registered in the household registration! Your trick is... no use!"
Suddenly a villager exclaimed: "Ah! Those look like three constables coming!"
"What? Did someone commit a crime?"
"I don't know! It seems to be coming this way."
"Hey, let's quickly step aside and don't get into trouble. He's an official, we can't afford to offend him."
Mu, who was standing by, pulled Shen Ercheng and whispered, “Boss, it seems the constable is really heading in this direction!”
Shen Ercheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but then he calmed down. He hadn't done anything wrong, so what was there to be afraid of? Even if his plan to sell his nephew was exposed, then why hadn't he succeeded? There was no need for the police to arrest him for this.
"What are you afraid of? We haven't done anything wrong. Even if it's about Shen Wuyou, we haven't succeeded yet, have we? Besides, the constable is heading to the Xu family. Humph, it's probably the mother and daughter of the Xu family!"
After listening to Shen Ercheng's analysis, Mu was relieved: "Boss, if the constable comes and arrests the Xu family mother and daughter! Then Shen Wuyou will have to go back obediently, right?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Ercheng laughed twice: "Humph, he can't run away! When we get the money, we will move to the town, rent a small courtyard, and do some small business. Isn't it fun?"
Mu: "Hey! I'll listen to you."
Shen Wuyou looked at the smug look of Shen Ercheng and Mu after they muttered, his eyes filled with anger.
Oh! Are you gloating over someone else's misfortune? You two will cry later!
At this time, the constables came over. It was most likely that Su Dongjia had taken action! Chen Shou was afraid that his house had been confiscated!
Everyone watched as the men approached them. Although they thought they had done nothing wrong, they couldn't help but feel afraid when they looked at the three detectives.
One of the leading constables glanced at everyone and asked in a cold voice: “Who is Shen Wuyou?”
When Shen Wuyou heard that it was him he was looking for, although he was a little curious, he still stood up and responded: "Sir, I am Shen Wuyou."
The leading constable heard this and waved his hand, "Please come with us to the government office."
Shen Wuyou: "Yes, sir"
Su, who was standing aside, went up and grabbed Shen Wuyou worriedly, looked at the leading constable and asked, "Excuse me, sir, what has my son-in-law done wrong? He has been staying at home these days and has not gone anywhere. Is there any misunderstanding?"
The chief constable said: "Whether he has committed any crime or not, we have to go back to the yamen for questioning, and the adults will make the final decision."
Xu Zhiyi pulled Su and whispered, "Mom, don't worry, I'll go to the town with you. You and Chang'an wait at home. We'll be back soon!"
Su: "But, that's the government office! Mother is afraid..."
Xu Zhiyi: "Mom, it shouldn't be a big problem. If he really committed a serious crime, the constables wouldn't be so polite! They would just take him away!"
After hearing this, Su felt that it made sense and had to suppress his worries.
The villagers murmured among themselves.
"What do you think Shen Erlang has done wrong?"
"He must have done something bad outside. I said, he was so rude to his own uncle and aunt just now, it's obvious that he is not a good person."
"How can you tell at first glance that he's not a good person? I think just looking at his handsome appearance, I really can't tell what's wrong with him!"
Mu was so anxious that she pulled Shen Ercheng and said, "Boss, what's going on? Shen Wuyou, that bastard, has been arrested! How can we hand him over to Mr. Chen? Oh, that huge sum of money!"
Shen Ercheng was also a little confused at this time. What had happened to his nephew? He was so angry! If he had known earlier, he would not have insisted on signing the contract to sell himself and get the money!
They should have tricked him into the Chen residence. Mr. Chen had a good time! Are you still afraid that he will default on his debt and not pay the money?
Oh, I really want to slap myself twice. I lost a hundred taels of silver in vain.
Shen Ercheng gritted his teeth and whispered: "If this second nephew can't come back! I'll ask Mr. Chen if he is interested in the eldest nephew."
"Although his legs are paralyzed, he is still very handsome! Anyway, he is not our biological father, so we don't care whether he lives or dies, we won't be sorry to the ancestors of the Shen family."
When Mu heard this, her eyes lit up and she thought it was feasible. After all, Mr. Chen only looked at the face, and there was nothing wrong with her eldest nephew's face. Maybe Mr. Chen really liked him.
The constable saw Shen Wuyou catching up, and looked at everyone and said, "Who of you will lead the way? Which family is Shen Ercheng in?"
When the villagers heard this, they all looked at Shen Ercheng standing aside: "He is Shen Ercheng"
Shen Ercheng was so frightened that he couldn't even hold on to his crutches. He asked tremblingly, "Sir, I am Shen Ercheng. I don't know what I have done wrong!"
After hearing this, the leading constable replied in a cold voice: "You will know what you have done in court!"
Then he signaled to the other two detectives: "Take Shen Ercheng back to the yamen and wait for interrogation."
After receiving the order, the two constables rushed over, put the knife on Shen Ercheng's neck, and then held him by the shoulders.
Mu was so frightened that she was stunned! After she came to her senses, she cried out loudly, "Master, how can I live if you leave? Master, my husband has always been honest and upright. He can't possibly commit a crime!"
Shen Ercheng: "Yes! Sir, I don't even dare to kill a chicken."
Upon hearing this, the leading constable asked, "Are you Mrs. Shen Ercheng?"
Mu thought there was a chance of a turnaround, and nodded frantically in surprise: "Yes, yes, yes, I am his wife, and my husband is the most honest! He would never dare to commit a crime!"
Who would have thought…
"The other one of you, take Shen Ercheng's wife back to the government office with you."
Mu: "What???"
