Chapter 55 Handkerchief 15

 Mr. Shen Er was dumbfounded when he was pulled over and heard this. How could he want to go back to that place in the countryside? Besides, he went back empty-handed. He has been used to a life of wealth and wealth over the years, so let him live in the countryside like before. How could he bear the life of a small landowner? - In the past, he felt quite satisfied living that kind of life, but now, it is difficult to transition from luxury to frugality, so naturally he cannot live it.

So he cried immediately: "My nephew, your second aunt did it because she was possessed by a ghost. I didn't do it to your second uncle. You can't knock down a whole boatload of people with one shot."

In fact, although he didn't do these things, of course he knew about them. He was also fascinated by wealth, saw his wife setting up a trap, and thought that in the future such a big business would be his own. Naturally, even if he knew about it, he didn't stop it or do it. It's not that he still has a conscience towards his nephew, but he just thinks that Mrs. Shen Er can do it and he won't get involved. In this way, if something happens, he can put aside the relationship and continue to live a good life. This is called entering. It can be attacked, retreated or defended, isn't it, isn't his plan put into use now?

So in order to stay in the capital, Mr. Shen Er naturally cut off the relationship with Mrs. Shen Er. Not to mention cutting off the relationship, he was willing to let Mrs. Shen Er divorce him. After all, as long as he could stay in this beautiful place In the house of the wealthy and powerful eldest nephew, are you still worried that you won’t be able to marry a new wife?

On the other side, Chen Hai and Miss Shen didn't know that their father planned to abandon their mother so that they could stay in the capital and enjoy their happiness. They all cried and cried: "Brother, don't drive us away." "We don't know anything. ”

When they think of returning to the countryside, they will no longer see the prosperity of the capital, no longer be able to enjoy such a good life, and no girls or young men with much better conditions than those in the countryside will fancy them. How can they bear it? Naturally, a The two of them also howled, especially Miss Shen. Now she was finally not as ambitious as she had been some time ago, and she wanted to drive An Ran out of the house. Didn't she want to drive others out of the house? Now she wanted to leave the house. Now, even if I want to be ambitious, I can’t get aroused.

Shen Cang doesn't care whether they are innocent or not. Mrs. Shen Er wants to harm her wife and children, and the second wife wants to pluck her clean? Can you blame him? If you are really innocent and want to blame, just blame your mother. He is not their mother-in-law, and the two families have separated a long time ago. What kind of life do they want, let their mother-in-law earn it for them, why do they want to see him?

Moreover, judging from the information he sent his men to find out, these people are not innocent. Not to mention Miss Shen, Shen Hai was involved in the matter, and Mr. Shen Er, who seemed not to be involved on the surface, at least had a conniving attitude, so he How could you believe them after hearing them howl twice and not drive them away?

So Shen Cang waved his hand impatiently and asked the housekeeper to send them away quickly.

"Send them off quickly, don't make any noise and disturb the wife and children." Shen Cang said. "If you don't leave, I don't mind sending you to the Yamen regardless of the feelings of relatives."

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Shen Er and others did not dare to say anything anymore.

It would be a lie to say that the whole family was completely unaware of Mrs. Shen Er's matter. If this really happened in the Yamen and the execution was carried out and the situation was revealed, even if they didn't do it themselves, someone who knew about it would inevitably be involved. If they didn't report the crime, they would probably go to jail, so they didn't dare to make a fuss. They had no choice but to shut up and leave.

The people in the second room poisoned his wife and children. Although Shen Cang thought that they were elders and sending them to prison would cause criticism, he would not let them off easily. He was now powerful and wanted to secretly punish them. Killing them takes no effort at all.

After returning home, something happened to Mrs. Shen Er at first.

Mrs. Shen Er is also cautious. Seeing that her murder of Qiao Anran has been exposed, she is afraid that Shen Cang will not let her go easily. In addition, before leaving, she had shown off to her neighbors that she was going to Beijing to enjoy the blessings of the Chinese government. Now she is being Shen Cang sent people to escort her back with nothing. She was afraid that people would laugh at her, so after she came back, she lived in seclusion. She thought that it would be difficult for Shen Cang to cause trouble for her even if he wanted to.

In fact, she underestimated Shen Cang's strength. With his skills, if he really wanted to kill someone, it would not be difficult at all to sneak into the house and kill her at night.

But before Shen Cang could really do this, Mrs. Shen Er herself would be in trouble.

But she said that Mrs. Shen Er had always been unhappy with the concubines and concubines that Mr. Shen Er took in the Duke's Mansion, but she still had to take care of the face of the upper class in the capital, so she couldn't let her husband have no concubines, but now that she is back After arriving in the countryside, Mrs. Shen Er naturally didn't have to worry too much. In addition, Shen Cang was purged and left home. The family didn't have much money. How could they afford to support such a group of people, so Mrs. Shen Er prepared to sell Shen Cang. The second master’s concubines can reduce expenses and increase income at the same time.

Mr. Shen Er originally disagreed, but because he had no money, he had to compromise.

But a concubine who gave birth to a child did not want to be separated from her child, and she did not want to leave. Mrs. Shen Er had long been dissatisfied with this concubine who had given birth to a son and might share her son's property in the future, so she immediately asked people to Make a plank.

She wanted to vent her anger and sell the person, but in the end she was beaten to death.

Although concubines are involved in buying and selling, they cannot be beaten to death at will. Otherwise, if they are innocent of the beating, the matron of the house will beat concubines to death at every turn. Then wouldn’t it be a problem in this dynasty, which favors boys over girls, so there are more boys than girls? It's even more serious, and it's not conducive to population reproduction, so according to this dynasty's system, if the mistress beats the concubine to death, even if she is not sentenced to death, she will still have to spend several years in prison.

However, this kind of thing is mostly done by the people without complaining to the officials. Master Shen Er naturally doesn't want this kind of thing to go to the Yamen and make it known to everyone and embarrassing. Anyway, the concubine was bought in Beijing, and her mother's family is in Beijing. , even if he dies now, he is not afraid that they will find out that he was beaten to death by his own family. As for the bastard born by concubine Ji, he is still young and does not know the situation yet. There is no need to worry that the bastard will stab him out, so after scolding Mrs. Shen Er - Shen Even if the second master scolded, he didn't blame Mrs. Shen Er for beating someone to death, but he felt that Mrs. Shen Er had ruined a valuable commodity - he had planned to bury the person quietly, but who knew that he would be killed that day? Reported to the Yamen.

It turned out that it was the person sent by Shen Cang to monitor the second house and prepare to find an opportunity to deal with them. He told Shen Cang the news. Shen Cang felt that there was something to be done about this matter, so he found the concubine's natal family that day and gave instructions. They went to sue Mrs. Shen Er.

Of course, in case these people say that he was the instigator in the future, they will use this to threaten him - after all, a nephew who instigates someone to accuse his aunt will be criticized in this era, even if Shen Cang's behavior should be called justice - Shen Cang Naturally, he didn’t show up, so he quietly sent someone to the door to tell him.
