Chapter 156 The truth is revealed
Xiuzhu kept talking, as if she was describing something that had nothing to do with her, but everyone in the room was so shocked and indignant that they were speechless.
After a long time, Mingxiu Courtyard finally quieted down, and Chen Shuyao sat there stiffly for a long time.
The maids didn't dare to speak.
After a while, she said, "Go to the outer courtyard and call father over!"
From the mouth of the woman kneeling in front of her, Shen Shuyao heard many incredible things that were closely related to herself.
Her father in Huzhou once said that her abduction might be a conspiracy and asked her to be careful when looking for her relatives.
Chen Shuyao originally thought so, but when she returned to the Shen family smoothly, she no longer thought about it that way.
After a while, Shen Xinian arrived. He was in a hurry and still wearing his official uniform, which he had not had time to change out of.
Then Xiuzhu's voice was heard from the room again. Chen Shuyao heard her father say, "Evil woman!" and then walked out.
She hurriedly followed with Perilla, Holly and the maid.
When Chen Shuyao and his daughter arrived at the main room, Jiang was scolding Aunt Cai. Seeing their aggressive attitude, she forced herself to say, "Second brother, do you have anything to talk to me about?"
After that, he said to Shen Shuyao, "It's rare for my niece to come here. Come in and sit down!"
Shen Xinian waved his hand, and the servants behind him rushed over to tie up the man.
Shen Jingshu, who was hiding inside, saw Jiang being tied up and rushed out to stop them, but she heard Shen Shuyao say, "Tie her up too!"
The second house's action alarmed everyone in the mansion.
Later, Ruan and people from the third and fourth rooms also rushed over and asked in a low voice what had happened.
It took a while to piece together the whole thing.
When Jiang saw them, she giggled strangely: "Why are you arresting me? It's my fourth sister-in-law! She lost the child. Go ask her! Go ask her!"
"Fourth sister-in-law! Say something!"
Seeing that Ruan still seemed to be in shock, Jiang laughed even louder. "Second brother's wife is also involved, don't you think? She has taken good care of Jingshu, even better than I do. She almost gave her the marriage at the Duke's Mansion!"
Ruan's face turned red and white, and then she seemed to suddenly remember something and rushed towards the arrogant smiling face.
Mrs. Ruan, who had never lost her temper since she was born, suddenly burst out with astonishing strength. She tore at Jiang's hair and cried, "I'll beat you to death! I'll beat you to death..."
Ruan pressed her former sister-in-law to the ground like a madman and punched her again and again.
Shen Xinian didn't ask anyone to pull them away, and everyone watched it all.
When they finally separated the two, Jiang was found lying on the ground with a bruised face, while Ruan was squatting beside her, sobbing.
Seeing his wife and daughter like this, Shen Changbai rushed over and said, "Second brother! Everything else is fine, but please don't report it to the police."
Chen Xinian looked at his brother's unsurprised eyes and waved his hand away, "Get out of the way!"
Finally, Master Shen from Yiyuan also rushed over, and Xiuzhu recounted the crimes of Jiang mother and daughter one by one.
It all started with Jiang's jealousy of the second wife's marriage, and how she had someone kidnap the child during the Lantern Festival. Then it continued with how Shen Jingshu murdered her brother in the temple, and now she was asked to assassinate Shen Shuyao...
Why did Jiang say that this matter was related to the fourth wife, Wu?
This story starts with the Lantern Festival. When Mrs. Wu saw that her child's brother was intently watching the mountain of lanterns, she kindly took her niece to a nearby place to buy some sugar figures.
She just said a few more words to the stall owner, and when she lowered her head again, the little doll disappeared.
Jiang took advantage of this opportunity to have Taotao taken away.
But when she saw her fourth brother's wife was anxious, she suggested keeping it a secret.
This secret was kept for more than ten years until Shen Shuyao returned recently.
Originally, Xiuzhu was just guessing about what happened that year, but the maid's mother was a nanny by Jiang's side. She had been staying in the farm for many years due to health reasons.
The maids employed by Jiang were insiders.
After the murder of Shen Shaoyu in the temple was exposed, the family originally planned to run away, but they were called by the eldest lady of the mansion to help her one last time.
But who would have thought that the second young lady would have such an agile maid by her side?
It was only after hearing what the maid said that Mrs. Wu realized how badly she had been deceived by Mrs. Jiang!
She was a new daughter-in-law at that time, and she was very grateful when she heard her elder sister-in-law say that she would keep it a secret for her.
I originally volunteered to take care of my niece, but something went wrong.
When she saw her eldest nephew calling for his sister in a heart-wrenching voice, she wanted to admit the truth for a moment, but in the end she did not have the courage to stand up.
Because of their shared secret, she has been controlled by Jiang for all these years.
Thinking of the days when she had racked her brains to please her husband so that Shen Jingshu could return home, Wu felt a surge of anger in her heart.
If her father-in-law hadn't been there, she would have wanted to run over and beat up that evil woman like Ruan did.
As Wu thought about it, she began to cry, and then she laughed as if she had put down a heavy burden in her heart.
How could someone be so bad?
She couldn't figure it out.
Wu was crying and laughing, and suddenly felt her palms warm. She wiped away her tears and saw her husband Shen Cunzhong looking at her gently.
Suddenly I felt embarrassed to cry anymore.
On the other side, Chen Shuyao also walked over and helped her mother up.
This confused woman!
She treated Shen Jingshu sincerely and gave her all her love and trust.
Blame her?
Shen Shuyao didn't know.
The mother and daughter missed each other for more than ten years, and everything has changed.
The mother raised the daughter of her enemy by her side, while she was also being cared for by her parents in Huzhou.
Chen Shuyao had experienced this, so she didn't think that blood ties were necessary to be close.
But Ruan met a mother and daughter who were poisonous snakes.
"Wuwu...Taotao...Wuwu..." Shen Shuyao was a little overwhelmed as she supported her crying mother.
She could only tentatively pat the other person on the back: "Okay, okay...don't cry!"
Despite hearing her daughter's gentle words of comfort, Ruan's condition did not improve. Instead, she cried even louder: "Taotao! Mother is so foolish! Mother is so sorry for you and your brother. I almost... almost..."
Chen Shuyao was originally just polite to Ruan and did not really play the role of a daughter.
But suddenly faced with this situation, she was at a loss for words.
