"They are from the government." Father Shen's face looked a little ugly. "They said someone reported that our Shen family was harboring criminals, and they are coming to search."
Song Jiao raised her eyebrows, and she already understood about 70% of it.
This must be a counterattack by Li Yexiao and Shen Yuli.
These two people took the things away, but they didn't forget to do something behind the scenes?
"Let them search." Song Jiao said calmly, "Our Shen family is upright and honest, so we are not afraid of them searching."
Father Shen nodded and stepped aside.
The officers and soldiers began to search the Shen residence extensively, but found nothing suspicious. In the end, they could only leave in disappointment.
Looking at the backs of the officers and soldiers leaving, Song Jiao's mouth curled up into a sneer again.
Don’t these two people think they can control the Shen family in this way?
Father Shen looked at Song Jiao, and suddenly felt that his daughter seemed to have grown up.
Faced with such a large situation, he was able to handle it all so calmly.
"Jiao'er, are you okay?" Father Shen asked worriedly.
Song Jiao shook her head. "Father, I'm fine. These soldiers are just going through the motions. Our Shen family has never done anything illegal, so we're not afraid of them searching us."
Father Shen nodded, and his heart was much more at ease.
After a while, the officers and soldiers came out of the Shen family and began to speak politely again.
Song Jiao smiled coldly. It would be strange if they could find anything. She had already dealt with all the things that Shen Yuli and Li Yexiao had hidden when she held the funeral two days ago.
At this moment, a servant came running over in a hurry, "Master, Madam, something bad has happened. A lot of people are outside, saying they want to see the young lady."
Song Jiao frowned, already having a bad feeling in her heart.
She walked out quickly and saw that the outside was full of people, all ordinary people.
There was anger and dissatisfaction on their faces, as if they had some deep hatred.
"What are you doing?" Song Jiao asked in a deep voice.
"Are you Shen Yuhuan?" A middle-aged man walked out of the crowd with a gloomy smile on his face, like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, ready to give its prey a fatal blow at any time. "It is you who caused our family to be destroyed. Today we come to you to seek an explanation!"
Song Jiao raised her eyebrows slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in her obsidian eyes.
She immediately understood the purpose of these people's visit and couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
Li Yexiao and Shen Yuli's methods are endless. First they framed others, and now they are inciting the public.
They thought they could not defeat the Shen family head-on, so they wanted to use the hands of these innocent people to crush Song Jiao. What a good plan!
Unfortunately, they miscalculated!
Do they really think that their little tricks can bring the Shen family to an irretrievable state? How naive!
"You say that I caused your family to be destroyed. What evidence do you have?" Song Jiao's voice was as cold as ice. Her eyes shot towards the middle-aged man like a sharp sword, as if she wanted to see through him.
"Evidence? We are the evidence!" the middle-aged man roared, his voice filled with anger and resentment. "Li Yexiao is your husband, right? He promised that as long as we follow him to invest and make money, he can let us live a good life. But now we have invested our money, and he has run away! Isn't it your Shen family's fault?"
"Yes! She is the culprit! We want her to compensate us for our hard-earned money!" Others echoed, their voices rising one after another, as if to overturn the entire sky.
However, facing these extremely angry people, Song Jiao did not show any fear.
She stood there, her posture straight as a pine tree, like an unshakable mountain.
She knew that these people were just being used.
The anger and resentment in their hearts were carefully planned and instigated. As long as she could expose Li Yexiao and Shen Yuli's conspiracy, these people would naturally disperse.
Thinking of this, Song Jiao took a deep breath and then said loudly: "Dear fellow villagers, please listen to me! I know you are very angry and disappointed now. But please believe me, I have never done anything to let you down! Li Yexiao's behavior has nothing to do with me. He cheated you of your hard-earned money, and I will help you get it back! But please don't listen to others' instigation and come here to cause trouble. This will not only fail to solve the problem, but will also allow the real culprit to go unpunished!"
Although Song Jiao's voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by everyone.
Her words were full of sincerity and determination, and seemed to have a magical power that gradually calmed down the extremely angry people.
"No matter whether he is dead or alive, my Shen family will recover the money, as long as you can provide the original receipt."
After resolving the two matters, Song Jiao followed Father Shen's footsteps and slowly returned to the main hall. Father Shen's face was terrifyingly gloomy, and anger was boiling in his chest. He swung his hand violently and smashed the teacup in his hand. The teacup drew a sad and angry arc in the air, and finally, with a "crack", it shattered into several pieces on the floor, splashing tea everywhere.
"What a bastard!" Father Shen's voice was filled with uncontrollable anger, "Even after leaving, he still wanted to plot against the Shen family. I shouldn't have let this beast in in the first place!"
Song Jiao gently gestured for Yun You to deal with the debris on the ground. Then she walked up to Father Shen and said in a soft but firm voice, "Dad, don't let this kind of person get you hurt. The case has been reported to the authorities, the funeral has been held, and now we just have to wait for them to fall into the trap."
Father Shen took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner rage. He closed his eyes, and the hateful faces of Li Yexiao and Shen Yuli emerged in his mind. They knew clearly what their identities were in the Shen family, yet they still plotted against the Shen family with such cruelty.
"I really didn't expect these two people to be so shameless!" Father Shen's voice revealed endless disappointment and regret, "I should have listened to your mother and let these two people fend for themselves."
Song Jiao gently patted Father Shen's shoulder and comforted him, "Dad, this has already happened. It's no use for you to regret it. Just wait patiently. Don't worry, they will be sent back soon. When the time comes, we will make them pay the price they deserve!"
Father Shen nodded, and the anger in his heart gradually subsided.
He knew that the most important thing now was to remain calm and clear-headed, waiting for the two culprits to fall into his trap.
"I'll leave this matter to you. I need to investigate the Shen family and find out if Li Yexiao has done anything shady in the name of the Shen family."
"Just leave this matter to your daughter without worry."
