Chapter 83 Dog Eats Dog

Chapter 83 Dog bites dog

Author: Xu Lin

When Shen Shaowei came out of the inner hall, she felt that the atmosphere between Shen Fu and Xiao Zian was a bit strange, but she couldn't explain it.

"Shaowei."

Before Xiao Zian could go up to speak, he was pushed aside by Shen Fu. In a blink of an eye, he took Shen Shaowei out of the inner hall. Shen Zhijing saw them coming out and stepped forward to tell Shen Shaowei his guess.

"It turned out to be them."

"This is just a guess, but we can lure them out."

After Shen Zhiyi finished speaking, he smiled. Shang Junhua and Ren Wanli seemed to be submissive and aloof, but in fact they didn't trust each other, so the only ones who really did things were Ren Wanli and Zheng Fanglan beside her. .

As for what role Shang Junhua played in it, we will soon know.

"No wonder when I went to buy rice grains in those days, the price of other stores' rice grains was higher than that of Zhangjia rice grains. It turned out that they were trying to force me to buy Zhangjia rice grains."

Shen Shaowei's face was full of anger: "You have a vicious mind."

Xiao Zian, who was behind her, naturally heard what she said. After she finished speaking, Xiao Zian intervened and said, "I understand what you mean, and you want to go together with me. Let's wait and see what happens."

A mighty voice sounded in the hall again. Zhang Pinggui knelt on the ground and listened to Xiao Zian above: "The records in the ledger are not deceptive. Aren't you telling the truth?"

He pretended to look through the account books, and Zhang Pinggui felt uneasy in his heart. He heard Xiao Zian say: "Boss Zhang is really flawless in his work. It's a pity that the people who supply you every month have already accounted for everything."

"Do you know that your sin is now a crime that will lead to beheading?"

When he heard the word beheading, Zhang Pinggui couldn't help but kowtow: "I don't know who it is, that person always covers his head every time he comes."

"Miss Shen Si, I told you that you must save me."

After saying those words, he turned around and kowtowed to Shen Zhiyi. This fight made them think that Shen Zhiyi was the mastermind behind it, if they hadn't sued the Shen family this time.

"You didn't tell the truth, why should I save you?"

Shen Zhiyi lowered his eyes and looked at him coldly. He clearly knew who the person behind it was, but he was still telling lies.

Zhang Pinggui kowtowed for a moment, and when he met Shen Zhiyi's gaze, he leaned back feebly and sat on the ground: "As long as I tell you the real person behind the scenes, you will save me."

Now there is nothing to hide. If you don't tell him, he will be the one who dies. If you tell him, you can still give it a try. After all, the identity of Changping Marquis is there, and Ren Wanli can't get past it.

"It's Dayong's Law that saves you. Boss Zhang, it's all up to you whether you want to save your life or whether you want to hand over the lives of your wife and children to others."

The smile on Shen Zhiyi's face deepened, Zhang Pinggui lowered his head and told the whole story. In fact, Ren Wanli was very cautious in doing things, and she always let strangers go.

It was only that time that she sent her maid to take a look, and then Lu Mei saw it.

Zhang Pinggui originally didn't want to agree to her, because once he did this, it would mean that he had given up his credibility and would never be able to live in Huaijing in the future.

But they threatened him that day. If he didn't do this, he wouldn't be able to survive. If things went well, he would not only get a generous amount of money, but he could also go to other places to do business safely.

But if the matter is exposed, then you need to take all the blame on yourself.

This was the deal between them. During that time, the business of the rice and grain store was not easy. He still owed money for goods while away from home. His youngest son at home was also sick, and the rent of the store was rising.

Everything seemed to be forcing him to do this. After much thought, Zhang Pinggui finally agreed to her.

When Ren Wanli's maid went to the rice and grain store, he also saw her. These aristocratic families have fixed people for purchasing, and there is no need for a helpless little maid to do the shopping.

Apart from the buying ladies, the people who frequented the rice and grain store were women. There were very few young girls, so Zhang Pinggui fell in love with that maid.

He followed secretly and watched the maid enter the Ren Mansion.

"This is just my guess. I don't know if Miss Ren did it."

After telling them everything he knew, Zhang Pinggui raised his head and looked at Shen Zhiyi: "I saw that the maid was wearing clothes that can only be worn by the eldest maid in the mansion, and the concierge respectfully called her girl."

After listening to what he said, Shen Zhiyi noticed something was wrong with Li Shoucai's expression. She knew that Li Shoucai must have done something here. After counting the time, Shang Junhua and Ren Wanli also received the letter.

She had just asked Lu Mei to find someone to send an identical letter to Wangfu and Renfu. In this dog-eat-dog show, she wanted to see who jumped out first.

"Now that Zhang Pinggui has explained everything clearly, let's go to the Ren Mansion and ask Miss Ren to come."

Everyone in the hall was waiting for Ren Wanli to appear, but they were told by the Ren family that Ren Wanli had contracted a cold some time ago and has not recovered yet.

It seems that this matter cannot be dealt with today. Xiao Zian has to go to Ren Mansion in person. Zhang Pinggui is temporarily detained. Shen Shaowei and Shen Zhiyi are cleared of suspicion and can naturally return home.

"Commander Xiao, you haven't finished talking about Li Jiatian yet, are you letting the suspect go just like that?"

Seeing that Shen Zhiyi and Shen Shaowei were let go, Li Shoucai stopped them. The matter was not completed, and the noble people would not give him money. After struggling for so long and getting nothing, how could he be willing to do so?

"Village Chief, didn't you hear what Boss Zhang said just now? What does it have to do with us if someone else is behind the scenes? You might as well think about whether Li Jiatian had offended anyone before he was killed."

Shen Zhiyi's words meant something, and Li Shoucai looked at her and said, "Chen rice passed through the hands of your Shen family before it reached the hands of Li Jiatian."

"You are trying to grab us like this. Could it be that when did our Shen family offend you? Or, what benefits can you gain by dragging us into the water?"

The little girl pressed towards Li Shoucai step by step, and she didn't even let him know what she said: "Village Chief Li, this is going too far, and it arouses suspicion."

The person in front of him had a smile on his face, but Li Shoucai felt that he had been seen through.

Shen Zhiyi didn't say anything more. When she was about to get on the carriage, she stopped and said to Shen Fu and the others: "Dad, I'm going out for a while."

"Are you going to find Ren Wanli?"

Shen Shaowei guessed what she was thinking, but Shen Zhiyi shook his head: "No, Commander Xiao will go find out the truth. After all, this is about a human life, and even if I go, Ren Wanli will not see me."

"I'm going to find Zheng Fanglan."

Zheng Fanglan and Ren Wanli have the closest relationship. Zheng Fanglan must be aware of what Ren Wanli did. Now Ren Wanli is using the excuse of illness to shirk everything.
