002 Slave Guardian
"Catcher of Money" Shen Wen recognized the person as the Catcher of Shanyang County, rushed forward and said first: "You came just right, I walked on the street all the time. These people were so rude, and they insisted that I took their money."
The evil man complained first, Qing'er's round little face turned red, and she couldn't help but say angrily: "Catcher Qian, don't listen to him in one's own words. This man is a rogue. He obviously took the money from my lady, but the evil man complained first."
Shen Wen said with a smile: "Your lady's money? If you call me, will it respond?"
"You..." Qing'er was so angry that she was a little crazy. She pointed at Shen Wen for a long time and couldn't speak.
Captain Qian ignored the two of them, but bowed to the girl in pink skirt and said, "Ms. Lin, what happened?"
One is a maid and the other is a young citizen. There is nothing nice about it. The only thing that can make the head of Qian care about the scene is Lin Ruolan in front of her. She is the niece of the second wife of the Shen family in the Hexia family. Speaking of the Shen family in the Hexia family, everyone in Huai'an knows that it is the top scorer of the high school student Shen Kun family.
Shen Kun was the top scorer in high school in 20 years in Jiajing. This was the first top scorer in Hexia and the first top scorer in Huai'an. It was the pride of the entire Huai'an. People in the entire region highly praised the Shen family in Hexia.
This second wife of Chen is not the wife of the top scholar Shen Kun. She is Shen Kun’s main wife of Shen Fang, Shen Kun’s younger brother Chen. Lin Ruolan is the daughter of her sister. Because Lin Ruolan’s mother died of illness and the Lin family also fell into trouble. Chen Cui, who had a deep sisterhood, took Lin Ruolan to the Shen family to raise.
The Shen family has a great fortune, while the Shen Cui family has two sons and no daughter, so they are particularly fond of this niece.
The Hexia is under the jurisdiction of Shanyang County. The personnel changes must be reported to the government, but others do not know about it. Qian Hu, who is the headmaster, knows all these clearly.
No matter who is right or wrong, it is important to show your attitude first.
Lin Ruolan gave a gentle salute and said softly: "If I say to the head of the money, a horse was shocked just now. In order to avoid the horse, the sedan chairwoman shook the sedan chair, the little woman accidentally dropped a piece of silver out. When she lifted the curtain, she happened to see the young man holding the silver in his hand."
Savvy, Shen Wen sighed in his heart: Miss Lin didn't say anything at all, but pointed the suspicion at herself, attacking and defending at the retreat, and standing invincible all at once.
Captain Qian nodded and bowed to Shen Wengong and said, "I don't know what to call this young master."
"If you say the captain, my surname is Chen, and I have a single word."
"You have heard what Mr. Chen, Miss Lin said, too, I don't know what you have to say."
Shen Wen nodded and said, "Yes, I was shocked just now, but I didn't see any money, let alone pick up any money."
"Lying" Qing'er immediately jumped out and said, "I saw you put the silver in your sleeve with your own eyes."
"You are Miss Lin's person, so you are naturally speaking for her." Shen Wen said calmly.
Captain Qian looked at the two of them with some embarrassment. After thinking about it, he sent two men to ask if there were any other witnesses. However, after asking around, no useful personal or physical evidence was found.
Everyone present at that time focused on the shocking moment. Who would pay attention to what Shen Wen on the roadside did?
Captain Qian was a little depressed now. If it were an ordinary person, he would have tied up people long ago. When he returned to the county government, he would interrogate slowly. He didn't have to pay attention to his image at all times, and he would have the advantage. The problem is that Lin Ruolan is from the Chen Mansion. Chen Mansion is very well-known in the entire Huaian. It is an absolute local clan. A woman wants to enter the yamen. It is not nice to say it.
If the people in the Chen Mansion think they are acting inappropriately or do not give the people in the Chen Mansion a face and hand over a famous thorn, the headmaster will have the end of his life.
With so many people surrounding him, now we not only need to solve the case, but also convince the onlookers, otherwise we will lose face.
Captain Qian felt that he was in a difficult situation.
After hesitating for a moment, Captain Qian bowed to Shen Wengong and said, "Mr. Chen, can you let me see that piece of silver?"
The thing is because of that piece of silver, so start with it first.
"No problem!" Shen Wen readily handed over the unheated silver.
"Miss Lin, look, is this silver?" After getting the silver, Captain Qian asked Lin Ruolan specifically for safety.
"It should be true."
Captain Qian nodded, collected the silver, looked at the two of them, and then said, "Please tell me what are the characteristics of this piece of silver."
Since he is the owner of the silver, he naturally knows his own silver very well.
Shen Wen made a gesture of invitation: "Ladies are preferred."
Lin Ruolan said alertly: "If I say it, what should you do if you follow me?"
"Let's do it this way," said Captain Qian, "Both write down everything they know, and you will know it by comparison."
After saying that, he ordered his subordinates to borrow pen and paper from the calligraphy and painting shop next to him for the two of them to write.
Lin Ruolan quickly started writing when she got the pen and paper. After Shen Wen got the pen and paper, she did not write, but stood aside in a daze.
Can't write.
Later generations learned simplified Chinese characters, while those written in the Ming Dynasty were traditional Chinese characters. Once they were written, they would have to reveal their strengths. I don’t know how to explain them at that time.
"Young Master Chen, why don't you write?" Captain Qian asked strangely.
"This, I haven't studied, so..." Shen Wen said embarrassedly: "After a while, I'll say it out in public."
Qing'er, who was beside him, heard it and said disdainfully: "It's so clever and can't even write it. It turns out that he's a fool."
Lin Ruolan heard this and said unhappily: "Qing'er."
It is very impolite to laugh at others in public. Besides, there are many people who don’t read these days, and they will get angry if they are not careful.
"Yes, Miss." Qing'er flattered her mouth, but she still stopped.
A small piece of silver is nothing more than color, weight and shape. Lin Ruolan quickly finished writing it, and after finishing it, she asked Qing'er to hand it over to the headmaster of the money.
When Kuang Qian opened it, he saw a few words with silk-shows written on it: Snowflakes are about two taels, and they are triangular.
"Young Master Chen, now you can say it." After reading Lin Ruolan's description, Captain Qian turned to Shen Wen and said.
Shen Wen responded, and then said calmly: "This piece of silver is snowflake silver, with a light black spot on the surface, cut into a triangle, weighing one or nine cents, yes, this piece of silver is cut out from the silver cast by Yuefeng Money House, so there is a corner with a faint left half of the word "Yue."
What? In such a detailed explanation?
Captain Qian was a little surprised, while Lin Ruolan and Qing'er master and servant looked at the small eyes with big eyes, their eyes were full of confusion, and an ominous premonition also arose from the hearts of the two.
Lin Ruolan even had an illusion: that piece of silver is really Shen Wen’s.
No, no, I clearly saw the silver flying out and landing at the feet of Chen, and I also saw him picking up and putting it into his sleeve bag with my own eyes. Strangely, how could this shameless guy know that he was more careful than himself?
He clearly was the victim, but the plot suddenly changed and became a villain.
Just when Lin Ruolan was embarrassed, Qing'er, who was beside her, suddenly knelt down and cried, "Miss, I, I was wrong."
