What's even more shocking is that one of the two involved had lost his genitals and was lying half-dead in bed, while the other was mentally unstable and would attack anyone he saw, which greatly increased the difficulty of solving the case.
Qian Chuan discussed it with his companion and said, "This case is complicated and it will be difficult to reach a conclusion in a short time. It would be better to wait until the two people have recovered from their illness before bringing them to court for questioning."
“None of you witnessed this; you are simply each telling your own version of events, and it doesn’t count.”
"Right now, let's go find the lost silver."
Solve one problem at a time.
The officials have spoken, so who would dare to easily refute them?
Shen Cang still led Qian Chuan and the others to search for silver. Before leaving, he threatened Guo An, saying, "Leave this mansion before I return, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
Actually, if it weren't for the incident between Old Madam Shen and Guo An, given Shen Cang's prideful nature, he would have had to suppress his anger in front of Qian Chuan and the others, no matter how furious he was.
But even as a grown man, the thought of his mother having an affair with this lazy old man made his head spin with rage.
He didn't kill them with a knife...
well!
He has done everything he could.
Meanwhile, Madam Shen, who was already dizzy from arguing with Shen Cang, felt her legs grow even weaker after hearing Qian Chuan say that they would continue searching for the whereabouts of the silver.
Whether it was real or an act, she swayed and fell down.
Shen Cang no longer showed the concern and worry he once had, and didn't even bother to pretend anymore. He simply gave a token instruction to the servants: "The old lady is unwell, help her back to rest."
Shen Qiyin spoke up at the right moment, saying, "Grandmother is getting old after all. I don't know what happened when she suddenly fainted. I'll go and take a look at her."
Shen Cang responded with a somber expression, without saying anything else.
Shortly after they left, Qian Chuan and his group dug up a bag of silver from the ground behind Madam Shen's room.
I counted them, and they match perfectly!
The land there had clearly been recently renovated; its color was completely different from the surrounding soil. Even without the guards smelling it, they could tell something was wrong at a glance.
He guessed that Madam Shen had taken the silver, but she probably hadn't hidden it here. She probably heard they were coming and hastily buried it underground, thinking she had it all safe, but in reality, it was full of loopholes.
After finding the missing silver at Zhuijintang, Shen Cang was not worried about losing face as he had at first. Instead, he felt a sense of schadenfreude and muttered to himself, "Hmph, I knew it!"
Qian Chuan glanced at him upon hearing the sound, his expression quite complicated.
He took back what he had just said.
Dr. Er Ya's life isn't just bitter, it's incredibly bitter!
What kind of grandmother is this, stealing money from her own granddaughter?
And this father too...
This family is a basket of rotten apricots; not a single one of them is any good.
Now that the silver had been found, the matter seemed to be over. But just as Qian Chuan and his group were about to take their leave, a servant rushed over and told them that Guo Xiuran had woken up!
This means that he might be able to tell everyone what exactly happened last night.
When Qian Chuan and the others arrived, they saw Guo An sitting in front of his bed talking to him, while he was crying and wailing, looking like a two-hundred-pound child.
Guo An was also in tears: "Xiu Ran, what do you think?"
"Cousin... Cousin Qiyin..." Even now, he was still thinking about Shen Qiyin, and said weakly, "Grandfather, I want to see Cousin Qiyin. Go and call her, please go and call her quickly!"
"Alright, alright, I'll send someone to fetch her right away." Guo An coaxed him, "Tell me first, who hurt you? Tell your grandfather, was it Shen Yaozu?"
