BXBX NOVEL Chapter 382
Seeing Mu Yunyao and Shen Binglin walk out, Su Wenyuan couldn\'t help but look at the First Madam and ask in a low voice, "How much do you know about the matter with Xiang Wu?"
The First Madam quickly shook her head, "Master, I really don\'t know how Xun Wu died."
"Then what of Xun Wu bribing those bastards?"
"This …"
The First Madam lowered her head and pursed her lips in silence. Looking at her expression, Su Wen Yuan\'s anger rose. If it wasn\'t for the presence of an outsider, he really wanted to pull the First Madam up and ask her about this matter. Was this person stupid? If they wanted to kill Mu Yunyao and bribe a few hoodlums, would those hoodlums believe it?
"Once the matter is revealed, I will be questioned in two or three sentences."
If he explained everything, then what would be the Su Clan\'s face? Should he, the Minister of the Civil Service, be treated as such? The First Madam didn\'t dare say anything. At that time, she had underestimated Mu Yunyao and didn\'t place her in her eyes. She felt that if she were to slightly use her abilities, wouldn\'t dealing with her be an easy task? Who would have thought that the result would be her being suppressed to the point that she couldn\'t even lift her head? Furthermore, in order to prevent the matter from being exposed, she secretly gave orders … "Xun Wu, after this is over, invite those people to have a drink, and do some tricks in the wine."
In this way, it was guaranteed that no one would notice, and she even thought of how to silence Xun Wu, but the plan did not change in time, so Mu Yunyao was completely fine. Instead, it involved her, so she could only bite the bullet and not admit it!
Su Wen Yuan coldly looked at the First Madam and said, "In the next few days, you will peacefully stay at home to take care of Yu Yi. You don\'t need to worry about anything else. Don\'t meddle in Qingwu\'s matters. Mother and I will take care of it."
"Old master, you are the head of the family and I am the head of the household. However, the authority of the steward fell into the hands of the Qi Madam of the second branch. No matter what, they are unreasonable and unreasonable. If you wait few days more, we might be killed. If the authority of the steward were in my hands, I would be more at ease. "
Su Wen Yuan coldly snorted. "Take care of yourself first." At this time, he was still trying to gain power. He really had no idea what was going on! With that, he turned and left. The First Madam gritted her teeth in hatred and her gaze fell on Mu Yunyao who was in the pavilion outside. She wished she could cut off a piece of meat from her body, but after a while, she took a deep breath and retracted her gaze.
There must be no more mistakes.
Within the pavilion, Shen Bingshu thought for a moment before speaking, "Miss Shen, I have investigated your case for a long time, but in the end, I was unable to find any useful clues."
Mu Yunyao slightly paused for a moment, then abruptly broke into a smile, "I believe Sir Shen must have done his best. Yunyao, thank you very much, Sir."
Looking at Mu Yunyao\'s smiling face, Shen Bingshu was astonished in his heart. "Does Miss Mu not mind what happened earlier?"
Mu Yunyao lowered her eyes slightly, the smile on her face had an additional bitterness to it: "How could I not mind? But since Senior Shen couldn\'t investigate anything, then it would be really hard to uncover the truth. Since that\'s the case, besides opening my eyes a bit, I don\'t have any better methods."
Shen Bingshu shook his head, "This official hates evil, but there are many things that are beyond the reach of man. Shuntian Manor receives many cases, big and small, every day. If the case cannot be settled, then it is because I am incapable."
"Senior Shen, please do not say that. The citizens of the capital all call you Shen Qingtian, it is enough to see your actions. For you to explain this matter to me in private, Yunyao is extremely grateful." Mu Yunyao smiled as she said, "Actually, it\'s better if we don\'t find out about it this way. In the end, it\'s still worth it. I have to be considerate of our bloodline and kinship. "
"Miss Mu is a kind person. It is only natural that you would think this way. I still have other things to do, so I will take my leave first." Based on his position, he shouldn\'t have said all this to Mu Yunyao alone. However, this girl was truly worthy of respect and pity.
Mu Yunyao curtsied. "I\'ll be sending you off, Sir Shen."
When they returned to the United Moon Pavilion, Mu Yunyao immediately called for Jin Lan. "You go out of the house and tell Six Taels. Let him make his move."
The First Madam originally thought that there wouldn\'t be much to do after Shen Bingchen\'s inquiry, but unexpectedly, in just two short days, the Su Clan was pushed to the heart of the matter once again. There were thieves that were caught in the prison of Shuntian for stealing. When they were interrogated, they suddenly mentioned that they had seen the Su Residence\'s Xun Wu, and also overheard the matter of Xun Wu bribing a hooligan to make trouble with Mu Yunyao. They described the situation in great detail, and even explained it, and went to find Grandma Wang\'s son, Wang Zhu, several times to cause trouble.
The person who did this was also a hooligan who had been bribed by Xun Wu. Initially, he thought it was something valuable, but after stealing it, he realized it was only a normal card game. He was furious for a moment, and so he threw the card game into Wang Zhu\'s house, and then … The scene of Wang Zhu coming to the Shuntian to complain with his opponent\'s cards in his hand happened.
Shen Bingshu also did not expect that things would turn out this way. After interrogating that thief in the middle of the night, he brought his men to the Su Residence once again.
The First Madam would rather die than admit that she had ordered Xun Wu to do something. Since Shen Bingchen had no other choice, he could only make a move from another person\'s side.
Yun Chun, Jin Lan, and Jin Qiao were also called over to ask a few questions. Mu Yunyao had already warned them earlier, so there weren\'t any mistakes.
The case was not over yet, but the people already knew the answer.
The First Madam\'s reputation as a virtuous person had spread far and wide, and now, it was extremely abhorrent. The commoners didn\'t dare to openly discuss the Su Residence\'s wife, so they used Lady Snake Scorpion instead. Within a few days, almost all of the city\'s Madams knew that the virtuous Meng Madam had the nickname of Lady Snake Scorpion.
"That Lady Snake Scorpion is not ordinary. On the surface, she is generous and magnanimous, but secretly she dares to hire people for murder. Furthermore, she coveted the eighty thousand taels of silver from the young mistress."
"Who is still concerned about the money? Someone has already told you that Lady Snake Scorpion wants to kill them to keep their mouths shut. Don\'t you think that the deaths of those bastards in Baohua Temple are strange?"
"More than a dozen people fell off the cliff at the same time and died in the same place. How could there not be something fishy?"
"It\'s a pity that we don\'t have conclusive evidence. We can\'t bring this Lady Scorpion to justice. A few days ago, I saw Sir Shen on the street, and his hair almost turned white."
"Master Shen is in a tough spot."
"The most pitiful one is still that young mistress. She almost lost her life, and her silver was taken away by greed. Her family only values her inheritance … Sigh, she is still deep in a pit of fire. Who knows when someone might secretly lay his hands on her again!"
"That\'s right, what a pity. Such a kind-hearted young lady, what a pity."
"There\'s one more thing that you probably don\'t know. The Nebula Market and the No Envy Restaurant are about to open, and the good days of our citizens are about to come!"
