Si Tingyu turned to look at Shu Lingyin, not angry at all, but instead smiled and said, "Wanwan is so outstanding that she doesn't need me, which means I have good taste. As for when I can win her over? I'm not in a hurry. Anyway, I have a lifetime. I'll eventually win the heart of the beauty."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted Shu Lingyin's shoulder, "So you'll be the second brother-in-law sooner or later."
Then he strode after him.
Shu Lingyin grinned at his retreating figure.
What's there to be so smug about? His sister might not even be interested in Si Tingyu.
snort!
In the lobby.
The servant who had been brought down was kneeling and pleading with Yun Yun, "Madam, please be magnanimous and forgive my greed this time. I promise I will never dare to do it again."
Yun Yun got a headache listening to this. "Alright, stop repeating this over and over."
What she says isn't annoying, but even she finds it annoying to listen to.
Fu Rong spoke up: "Yun Yun, this isn't a big deal, you don't need to make such a fuss, do you?"
Yunyun looked at her, and instead of answering, asked, "Mom, if this person had entered Xueyin's room, would you be able to say such a thing so casually?"
"..."
Of course not.
But Fu Rong couldn't answer like that, otherwise Yun Yun would retort with accusations of double standards.
Just as she was thinking about how to get Yun Yun to be lenient about the maid entering the room, Shu Mowan and the others returned.
"Wanwan, you're back."
Yun Yun beckoned to Shu Mowan, and after she walked over and sat down, she said, "How do you plan to deal with this person entering your room?"
Shu Mowan smiled and said, "Mom, of course I want to know why she did that."
“We really have a tacit understanding; Mom thinks the same way.”
Yun Yun made a joke.
After the mother and daughter exchanged a smile, Shu Mowan looked at the maid.
"Ms. Li, right?"
Shu Mowan spoke.
She asked Shu Lingyi and learned that the maid, who was in her early thirties, was surnamed Li and had been working for the Shu family for seven years. She was usually responsible for cleaning the backyard where Fu Rong lived.
The Shu family home is very large, with several backyards.
Anyone who wants peace and quiet can stay in the backyard for a while, or even for an extended period.
"Yes, Miss."
The servant said.
“I checked on my way back. In the past seven years, you have resold a total of ten bracelets, five gold bangles, three necklaces, and seven pairs of earrings at a gold recycling shop, totaling more than 100,000 yuan.”
Shu Mowan looked at her and said, "These gold jewelry pieces have been verified to have been lost by my mother in recent years. According to relevant Chinese laws, theft of a large sum of money is punishable by imprisonment for not less than three years but not more than ten years. If we prosecute you, you will go to jail."
Yunyun has a lot of jewelry, and she doesn't even know how many pieces of gold jewelry she owns. So she doesn't even know if she occasionally loses a gold bracelet or necklace, and then she just buys it back and keeps it.
So the maid stole for seven years without being discovered.
The maid thought Shu Mowan would come back to ask her what she was doing in the room, but she didn't expect Shu Mowan to act unpredictably and directly tell her about the theft.
She was greedy but timid. When she realized she had been caught stealing, she immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Miss, please don't call the police to arrest me. I only had the idea of stealing because my family was poor. If you forgive me this time, I will never dare to do it again."
Shu Mowan remained unmoved by her pitiful pleas for mercy.
"You want me to not call the police?"
Shu Mowan said.
The maid nodded repeatedly.
"Tell me honestly why you entered my room, and I might consider not calling the police."
Shu Mowan said.
The opportunity is right in front of her; it's just a matter of whether the maid is willing to seize it.
"this……"
The maid hesitated, her gaze involuntarily drifting towards Fu Rong.
Fu Rong's face darkened, and she glared at her warningly.
The maid lowered her head, not daring to look at Fu Rong again.
She couldn't afford to offend Shu Mowan, nor could she afford to offend Fu Rong.
"Ms. Li, I've found out that your husband is having an affair with a hairdresser. If you go to jail and he has a new lover, do you think he'll treat your daughter well?"
Shu Mowan took drastic measures, knowing that her daughter was the maid's only weakness.
Sure enough, the maid suddenly looked up, her eyes slightly red as she stared at Shu Mowan, "Miss, did you really find out that he's hooking up with the shampoo girl again?"
It seems she knew about her husband's urinary habits.
"Don't you know best in your heart whether you've been flirting or not?"
Shu Mowan didn't answer but instead spoke.
The maid remained silent.
This is equivalent to the default setting.
"Miss, if I tell you, will you really promise not to call the police and have me arrested?"
After a long pause, she looked up again and said.
Before Shu Mowan could answer, Fu Rong made some noise.
Everyone looked at Fu Rong.
"I'm getting old, and my hands are a bit slippery."
Fu Rong steadied the teacup that she had made a sound, and said calmly.
Yun Yun snorted coldly.
She guessed that this was instigated by Fu Rong, otherwise the old hag would never have made so many moves.
Shu Mowan gave Fu Rong a meaningful smile before saying to the maid, "As long as you speak up, not only will you not be arrested by the police, but no one will dare to do anything to you or your daughter."
"Of course you can choose not to believe it."
She added this sentence.
The maid was caught in a dilemma.
Finally, she said, "Miss, it was the old lady who asked me to come into your room, saying she wanted to find a few strands of your hair."
"Li Guixiang, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Fu Rong's expression changed, and she shouted.
"Madam, to prevent you from denying it after things go wrong, I also made a recording."
The maid, seemingly reckless and fearless, retorted.
