Wang Lingyi laughed and said, "My mother couldn't find Qian Fucheng, so she assigned this task to me. I've been looking for him for seven days, but I still can't find him.
Seeing that there was no news from this person, I sent Xuan Mo and Xuan Qing. Speaking of which, these were the people my mother gave me. They learned a lot of kung fu from Jiang Heng's men, and their abilities have improved greatly.
I sent the two of them to sneak into Dong Rouer's house, and they learned the old method that Jiang Heng used to find evidence of Huang Mengling and her daughter murdering his wife and daughter.
Xuan Mo and Xuan Qing, one was squatting in the main house, and the other was squatting in the large kitchen and servants' quarters, where there were the most people and the most gossip. They gathered this from the conversation between Dong Rou'er and Duke Rong, as well as the discussions among several servants.
Shen Zhaoshu asked, "Do you have any clues about Qian Fucheng's current whereabouts?"
Wang Lingyi said, "That's not the case, but from what they said, it seems unlikely that this person will be found.
Then Qian Fucheng was either murdered to silence him;
Or maybe he's already taken a lot of benefits from Dong Rouer and moved his entire family to another place under a different name, hiding far away."
Chen Zhaoshu said worriedly, "Let's ask Xuan Mo and Xuan Qing to come back. If their skills are exposed, it will be bad if they get caught."
Wang Lingyi smiled and said, "Although they are not as good as Jiang Heng's men, they won't be caught if they go to Dong Rouer's yard to get some information. But since mother thinks it's a good idea to withdraw them, then let's do it.
These two people have worked hard.”
Shen Zhaoshu and Wang Lingyi discussed, "Qian Fucheng has two children. Can we find some clues from his parents, children, and wife?
If all these people disappeared, how would we report them to the village head? Missing?"
Wang Lingyi said, "The family we're looking for has all been reported missing..."
Shen Zhaoshu and her daughter were discussing Qian Fucheng's matter, but a maid came to report that something had happened to Shen Yu again.
Chen Yu has been treated by the Ghost Valley Doctor for half a year. He used to become confused once every three to five days, and each time would last for three to five days. Now he becomes confused only once every half a month, and the time of confusion has been shortened to two to three days.
But Guigu Strange Doctor said to Shen Zhaoshu: “After the remaining poison is removed, the recovery of brain power will be more obvious.
Progress will slow down after that, and I need to fully recover and train hard."
After all, Chen Yu would feel confused every month, and she no longer had a caring maid to help her.
During Shen Yu's confused days, she unknowingly let slip that she had another house outside.
At first, Duke Rong and his son didn't pay attention and thought she was talking about the courtyard that they had tricked away and given to Dong Rouer.
But later I heard her talk about the approximate location of the yard, but it was obviously not what Dong Rouer said.
After several rounds of inquiries, the father and son finally found out everything about how Chen Yu had taken money from her dowry and bought another house.
The two men were very angry when they heard this. In their opinion, every penny of Shen Yu's money belonged to them. They could spend it on Duke Rong and on their son, but they could not let Shen Yu spend it on himself.
Even if she used the money to subsidize the various families in Rongguo Mansion, it would be Shen Yu's responsibility. However, she secretly took such a large sum of money to buy a house for herself, and both father and son were furious.
So the son asked Shen Yu to hand over the house and transfer it to his own name, but the father asked Shen Yu to give the house directly to Dong Rouer as an apology for causing trouble.
After his father said this, the son didn't dare to ask his mother to give him the house again. He couldn't help but complain in his heart, "Isn't it enough that my father asked for a house for me?! I want more!"
Duke Rong seemed to see that his eldest son was dissatisfied, and thought that he had to keep this eldest son by his side to deal with Chen Yu, so he comforted him and said, "You are the eldest son of the eldest house of Duke Rong's mansion. In the future, won't everything in this mansion be yours?
Although your mother already has a house, your brother still doesn't have one. This house will be used for him to get married in the future, and your mother will feel at ease."
The daughter-in-law who received the letter couldn't help but retort to her father-in-law: "I only have this one son. If he gets married, shouldn't I live with him? Do we need two houses this big to accommodate these two people?"
When Duke Rong heard the sarcasm in his daughter-in-law's mouth, he couldn't help but scold her, "Do you have the right to speak here?
Your mother rushed to Rouer's house and made a big fuss, making Rouer sad. Shouldn't she apologize?
In the future, your brother-in-law will also recognize his ancestral roots and be registered under your mother's name. She was given such a good son for nothing, so isn't it only right that she give him a welcome gift?"
He also said to his eldest son, "Marry a virtuous wife. If the daughter-in-law you marry is so short-sighted and shallow-sighted as to want to steal the things of her elders and younger brothers, and bully your mother and her children, then don't blame me for not allowing such disturbances in the family."
The couple was beaten and scolded by Duke Rong. Although they were unhappy, they had to admit their mistakes and said obediently that the house should belong to the young lady and her brother.
Duke Rong's expression softened slightly as he said, "Brothers, be friendly and respectful to each other. You will naturally get along well in the future."
So Duke Rong coaxed Chen Yu to take him to the house to see what it was like, and he was impatient to call the people from the business to go with them.
He planned to sign a commercial contract if the house was good, pretend it was a deal, and transfer the house to Dong Rouer's name according to the previous routine.
After all, there was such a big fuss here that even the daughter-in-law of Duke Rong heard about it and came to help her husband fight for the house.
Jiang He also received the letter almost at the same time. After hearing it, he knew something was wrong and passed the news to Shen Zhaoshu.
