The prefect promised the woman to treat Old Madam Shen.
The woman took out a silver needle and pierced several acupuncture points on Mrs. Shen's face and head in public.
But just a moment.
The old lady who had just been convulsing violently suddenly opened her eyes, let out a cry of "ouch" from her crooked mouth, and her upper body sat up instantly.
The voice and the movement of standing up were very neat.
"Can someone who has suffered a stroke get up so swiftly?"
"Are you really pretending?"
"Tsk, this old lady from the Shen family is really good at acting. I almost got fooled."
“…”
The onlookers immediately started pointing and talking.
When Mr. Shen, Mrs. Yin and others saw the condition of Old Madam Shen, they were also stunned for a moment, and subconsciously thought that the old lady was just pretending.
Because the changes before and after are too great.
But they didn't know that Madam Shen was also confused at this time.
Until I heard a strange female voice saying, "My Lord, the old lady has woken up and will not faint again. May I go down first?"
"Go down."
"Thank you, sir."
The woman stood up and retreated back into the crowd of onlookers.
The prefect looked at the old lady who was obviously in good spirits, and disappointment flashed in his eyes. This Shen family... was really disappointing.
"Come here, take him away. I will make a decision after I have reported to His Majesty."
Mrs. Shen finally came to her senses, and her expression changed drastically: "No, no..."
The two yamen runners stepped forward and lifted up the old lady.
When Master Shen and Yin saw this, their faces changed and they quickly said, "My lord, please have mercy on me. My mother, my mother..." They wanted to say that she was sick, but now they couldn't say it.
Whoever has suffered a stroke can have such a mental state?
Just as the old lady was about to be taken away by the bailiffs, a voice came from outside.
"etc!"
It was Shen Li.
Li Afu pushed him over.
After entering the lobby, Shen Li, sitting in his wheelchair, bowed and saluted. He raised his warm eyes, looked at the prefect, and said, "Sir, what happened today was a misunderstanding. The items in my grandmother's private vault were birthday gifts given to her by my grandfather. They belonged to my grandmother personally. According to our country's laws, those items were not included in the confiscation of property."
Shen Li waved to Li Afu, who immediately stepped forward with an account book in his hand. "This account book was written by my grandfather back then. It clearly records this incident. Please take a look, sir."
Upon hearing this, the prefect asked someone to bring the account book and take a look.
Chen Li continued methodically, "Sir, my grandmother did indeed suffer a stroke, which is why I was unable to explain the situation to you in time. Regarding the stroke, you can ask Doctor Li from Jishitang to come over and ask him about it. It happened this morning."
However, at this moment, the woman just now spoke up: "The old lady did have a mild stroke, but it didn't affect her defense. We didn't hear her say that just now. Instead, she was trying to deliberately feign illness to evade responsibility."
"That's right. Since you have this account book to prove your innocence, you should have produced it earlier. Why did you bring the matter to the authorities? Isn't this fooling you, sir?"
"That's right. Without even this much brains, it's no wonder the women in the Shen family are so stupid."
“…”
There were many voices of contempt among the onlookers.
A hint of gloom flashed across Shen Liwen's warm eyes.
…
"Madam, the old lady is back."
"It was the master who delivered the account book personally and gave a guarantee on the spot. That's why the prefect asked the old lady to come back first and said that he would report the matter to the emperor and wait for his decision at that time." Dong Shuang entered the house to report.
Yang Zhao smiled faintly: "That prefect was once half a student of Old Master Shen. If he doesn't give a push in this matter, the account book will never reach the emperor."
"Is there anything I can do?" Dong Shuang asked.
Yang Zhao did not say anything immediately, but stared at the chessboard in front of him. With his slender fingertips, he dropped a black piece on the "cliff". In an instant, the chessboard changed drastically.
She slowly raised the corners of her lips and said, "Let's go to Old Chen's in the east of the city and buy some puff pastry."
Dong Shuang immediately smiled and said, "Yes, I'll go right away."
at the same time.
Linzhuyuan.
Chen Li sent Li Afu to Wanglai Pawnshop to deliver a message: "This time, tell the owner to do everything in his power to stop the prefect from bringing this matter before His Majesty, and to get the account book back."
Li Ahfu looked loyal and said, "Yes, I will definitely pass on the message."
