Chapter 374 It turns out the traitor was him
The two men in black were startled again.
The two of them immediately ran back, trying to leave the rice warehouse.
However, just as they reached the door, a flash of lightning appeared outside the window behind them, and the white light shone on the door in front of them, reflecting a strange and terrifying black figure.
The leader of the men in black, who had initially been somewhat skeptical of ghosts and spirits, saw everything clearly now, and his legs immediately went weak.
They hugged each other and shouted, "Ghost! Ah! Don't eat us!"
As they shouted, the door to the rice warehouse was suddenly opened.
A group of servants carrying torches surrounded them.
Du Wanchun slowly walked towards them from the crowd.
When Xiao Mianmian and Yi'er and Yu'er saw this, they immediately hid behind the pile of rice again.
"Manager Du! There's something fishy going on in this rice warehouse!" The black-clad shop assistant practically crawled on his knees to Du Wanchun's side.
Du Wanchun looked at the two men dressed in black acting suspiciously in front of her and asked them in a cold voice, "Who are you two? Why are you in my rice warehouse?"
The two men in black then realized what was happening and quickly tried to escape.
Du Wanchun gave a wink to the two guards carrying long swords beside her.
The two men strode forward and kicked the two men in black, sending them crashing to the ground.
Then he ripped off the black cloth covering their faces.
Two familiar faces then appeared.
Although Du Wanchun had already guessed who it was, she was still slightly surprised when she saw those two faces.
Manager You was one of the veterans in Zhou Feng's shop. He had been with Zhou Feng since when Zhou Feng was just running a small incense shop, so there was some loyalty between them.
Du Wanchun couldn't understand why such a person would choose to frame the Zhou family.
She asked him coldly, "I never expected it to be Manager You."
Manager You kept his head down, and without his gold-rimmed glasses, he appeared much more cunning than usual.
He said sternly, "Madam Du, I brought my men to the rice warehouse to guard the rice. Why did you send people to attack us?"
"Guarding the rice?" Du Wanchun slowly walked to his side and picked up the medicine bottle he was about to throw away. "What is this?"
Manager You looked up and replied, "I heard during the day that there were bugs in the rice granary, so I planned to come over tonight to kill them. This medicine bottle contains the insecticide."
Du Wanchun listened to his sophistry with a mocking smile. "Manager You, don't take me for a fool. Do you need to wear night clothes to kill pests at the rice warehouse?"
She abandoned her usual gentle demeanor and said to the guard beside her, "Send the two of them to the yamen first thing tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Madam," the guards replied in unison.
Manager You struggled and tried to argue, "Madam Du, you can't wrong me like this! I want to see Zhou Feng! I want to see him!"
Du Wanchun said coldly, "Do you think Zhou Feng will let you go after you see him? Manager You, Zhou Feng has long suspected that you might be the mole, which is why he specifically asked me to handle this matter, because he doesn't want to confront you face to face."
Manager You gritted his teeth, his face full of resentment.
At this moment, Manager Tong ran over, and he was also stunned by the scene before him.
Over the years, he had always felt that Zhou Feng favored Manager You, so he harbored resentment.
He was especially displeased that Du Wanchun had entrusted the rice granary to Manager You. He thought he would work there for a few years before seeking a better job, but he never expected that Manager You would turn out to be a traitor.
He was both surprised and delighted.
Manager You still refuses to admit it. "Madam Du, I've been working for Manager Zhou for at least three or four years. I've been here since the Zhou family was just a small incense shop. Everything I have now was given to me by Manager Zhou. Why would I want to harm him?"
Zhou Feng almost died at the hands of the Northern Barbarians because of this traitor.
This is aimed at killing him.
Du Wanchun couldn't understand it at first either, until she asked Manager Bo about something in the evening.
She looked coldly at Manager You and laughed, "Manager You, the money for your house was indeed given by the Zhou family, but now it has all been sent to that Miss Liang."
"You've long harbored feelings for Miss Liang, dreaming of marrying her and becoming the head of the Liang family. What do the things the Zhou family gave you amount to?"
Manager You's face turned pale.
Du Wanchun was asking Manager Bo about Manager You's marriage.
She heard from Manager Bo that matchmakers had been coming to the Zhou family to arrange marriages for Manager You for some time, but then one day the matchmakers stopped coming altogether.
From that day on, the Zhou family's shop was always having problems.
Then came the incident of Zhou Feng being detained in the Northern Di.
After hearing this, Du Wanchun guessed that it might be related to a woman, so he sent someone to follow Manager You, and sure enough, they saw him having a secret rendezvous with Miss Liang.
He actually repaid kindness with enmity for a woman.
Du Wanchun was furious. She would not let Manager You off the hook, nor would she let the Liang family off the hook.
