Chen Siyuan knew in her heart that although Aunt Zhao was hateful, she was not in such a hurry to do things, and she must have produced some 'evidence'.
Sure enough, soon she found irrefutable evidence that Aunt Zhao hadn't had time to say.
A letter from Wang Li to his maid.
Thinking that Aunt Chen was dragged away without revealing the letter, it must be because the letter was too poorly written and couldn't fool certain people.
Chen Siyuan threw the letter on the ground and looked at the many maids and servants kneeling before her.
"Look carefully, this is evidence of their affair."
The crowd was terrified, not knowing what the young lady wanted.
Even someone as capable as Aunt Zhao was sent to a remote village to fend for herself; what good could possibly come of them?
“When Wang Li first arrived, you may not know that he is illiterate and cannot write.”
Hearing this, the maids and servants didn't react much. Those who could read were from wealthy families. For them, children from poor families, it was good enough to have enough to eat. To be literate was simply a dream.
Wang Li, Chunlan, and Chunping stood to the side, listening to the young lady's nonsense.
Chen Siyuan sighed as she spoke, "Aunt Zhao has gone to the estate. Who among you is willing to go and serve her? Step forward now."
Upon hearing this, no one was foolish. Even those who had become Aunt Zhao's henchmen over the years did not dare to stand up.
Chen Siyuan was satisfied with everyone's reaction.
She was determined to completely destroy Aunt Zhao's faction and let everyone see who was truly in charge of the Chen family.
Furthermore, her status clearly reminded everyone that no matter how capable Aunt Zhao was, she was still just a servant.
After being intimidated, Chen Siyuan drove away the irrelevant people.
Everyone who was staying at the house knelt in the courtyard.
This incident means there are unclean people in her yard. She should deal with her own yard first, and then deal with the Chen family.
The doctor arrived and treated the wounds of several people, while Chen Siyuan sat quietly on a chair in the garden.
She knew in her heart that Wang Li could write, but he had only been in this courtyard for a short time, so how did others come to have their eyes on him?
She understood Aunt Zhao's thoughts.
It's nothing more than wanting to regain control of the stewardship and coveting his treasures; he was too impatient and resorted to clumsy tactics.
Having been reborn, she was wary of the maidservants that Aunt Zhao sent to the warm residence, but she never expected Aunt Zhao to act so quickly.
"Speak, what exactly is this letter about?" Chen Siyuan's gaze swept over each of them like a poisoned sword. "This is your last chance. Confess now, and I might spare your life. But if I find out anything, heh heh—"
hehe--
This style allows for a lot of thought.
Chen Siyuan sneered, "But you can conclude that someone close to me has done such a dirty thing based on just one letter, huh?"
Chunlan and Chunping lowered their heads.
They served the young lady so diligently that they didn't even notice such a thing, and they felt guilty.
"I believe everyone in my yard is clean, but what pains me today is that there are rat droppings in my yard!"
The doctor and his apprentice were treating the wounded when they heard this, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
Everyone says that the eldest daughter of the Chen family is arrogant and domineering, but the meaning of these words seems different from the rumors.
He was a doctor, an old man, and had experienced a lot. He also frequently visited wealthy families and had seen a lot.
He saw in the young lady an imposing aura that was not appropriate for someone her age.
A cold smile gradually crept onto Chen Siyuan's lips as she glanced at the so-called doctor.
She believed that after today, no one would come to the Chen family to propose marriage, and even the Tao family would have to give up.
Why make yourself unhappy when you can live a good life on your own?
This was something she came up with on the spur of the moment after seeing what she saw when she returned to her own courtyard.
"Since no one is going to speak, then... give each person five strokes of the cane before they speak." Chen Siyuan said, a hint of resentment creeping into her eyes.
Everyone was very alarmed.
Chunlan and Chunping moved even faster.
Soon, a series of slapping sounds echoed throughout the courtyard.
The people who had been kneeling tremblingly on the ground just moments before began to turn pale one by one.
“I have a bad temper and little patience,” Chen Siyuan said, reaching out her hand. Chunlan brought her a cup of tea, which she took a sip to moisten her throat before continuing, “You all work together, so I don’t believe no one has noticed anything unusual about the people around you.”
This made everyone understand the origin of the five strokes of the cane.
"Opportunities are limited. As long as you point out the differences among the people around you, and if it is true, you can be spared the next five strokes of the cane."
After the five lashes, no one dared to be careless and quickly began to point out the differences between the people around them.
As they spoke, everyone became even more alarmed.
It turned out that Wang Li was the one who was writing down what they were saying.
They remembered that the young lady had just said Wang Li was illiterate, but now he can write, isn't that...?
After they had all finished explaining...
Chen Siyuan asked the doctor to leave enough medicine for each of them before leaving.
The doctor made a fortune, but his heart couldn't find peace even after leaving the Chen family for a long time.
Chen Siyuan dismissed some people, but kept a few behind.
These are clearly problematic individuals.
Chen Siyuan spoke again, "This is your last chance. If you just ask, I'll leave you with a whole corpse."
At that moment, the group realized that when it came to ruthlessness, Aunt Zhao was far inferior to the eldest young lady.
After half an incense stick's time had passed, no one spoke, and Chen Siyuan's patience seemed to have run out.
He glanced at the maid kneeling beside him, trying to appear calm, and asked, "Lü'er, do you know your crime?"
Greenie was sent over by Aunt Zhao. She had always been well-behaved and obedient. If it weren't for this incident, she wouldn't have discovered her. This person was very good at hiding her true nature.
Greenie looked up in a panic, glanced at Chen Siyuan, and then quickly lowered her head again. "Miss, this servant doesn't know what you're talking about."
Chen Siyuan's eyes darkened, and she grabbed the teacup next to her and smashed it directly on Lü'er's head.
Instantly, Greenie's forehead was smashed open, and blood flowed out.
Given the previous incident of losing an arm, followed by being beaten with a cane and bleeding from the forehead, it's not surprising at all.
“I gave you a chance, but you didn’t know how to repent.” Chen Siyuan said as she stood up and slapped the armrest next to her.
The handrail shattered instantly.
She glanced at the fallen handrail, then saw Chunlan blink, and a warm feeling welled up inside her. "You think I don't know what you've done?"
It can only be said that Greenie is a smart person. So many people exposed the people around them, but Greenie was the only one who was clean.
After her rebirth, she was no longer the foolish young lady she once was, and she became more wary of everyone.
The person who harms you is never your enemy, but rather the person closest to you.
Only those closest to you can design something invisibly.
