Nongmen Shenjue

Chapter 198

Mu Lin did not procrastinate, and found someone to clean up the secret passage on the same day.To do this, you must be bold. After all, the dark, humid, and narrow space in the secret passage gives people a sense of oppression. If you are not courageous, it is easy to cause unpredictable consequences due to excessive mental pressure.Furthermore, the secret passage has been vacant for many years, in case it collapses...

Mu Qingyan was mentally prepared, thinking that within a few days, there would be no results from Mu Lin's side.

On the contrary, Chen Shiliu's news was investigated faster.

Knowing more about the Shen family's affairs, he would also guess whether the interests of several families were involved in it.This Shen Zhanjie is both ambitious and capable.

While waiting for the news, Mu Qingyan didn't go to the city, but stayed in Qingyou Villa with Wen Jixue.Using supernatural powers repeatedly in a short period of time will inevitably have sequelae, so it is better to take more rest and recuperate.Wen Jixue watched the same, and ordered the kitchen to stew supplements every day, wearing Haoyu all the time, putting the case aside, and enjoying leisurely.

Chen Shiliu came here in person, mainly to talk about Shen Zhanjie.

"Yesterday, the matter of the Shen family's maidservant climbing the bed came to an end. That Mrs. Xu didn't hold back. It is said that she got the letter and rushed back to Shen's house. Once the courtyard door was closed, the bedroom staged a full martial arts. I thought she was fighting with Shen Zhanjie Well, it turned out not to be, the one who suffered was the servant girl. Not to mention the maid was beaten all over her body, she was sold by Yuan Yuan on the same day. The person I am looking for is specialized in this business, and he likes to deal with disobedient big families the most. girl."

You don't need to ask carefully to know what will happen to the servant girl.

But I can't blame others for this, as a servant girl of the Shen family, how can I not understand Xu's?Now that a decision has been made, it is natural to bear the consequences.

"Where's Shen Zhanjie?"

"This is different from seven years ago. Under the mediation of Qu and others, Shen Zhanjie compensated Mrs. Xu, but when the maid was sold, he said that the wine shop was busy and went directly to the wine shop. It's too late, and Xu is so angry that he can't do anything about it."

The reality is so cruel. In the beginning, the two married for profit. As time went by, Shen Zhanjie gradually increased the chips in his hands, but Xu's chips decreased as he had children.Men and women are not equal, especially in marriage.Once Mrs. Xu gets married, her value will plummet. Only her natal family is her backing. But when Mrs. Xu's family can no longer provide enough benefits for Shen Zhanjie, Mrs. Xu becomes a paper tiger with teeth and claws.

Therefore, Xu seems to be full of momentum now, but in the end he can only vent his anger on the maid.

Chen Shiliu sighed: "Think about seven years ago, and now..."

Mu Qingyan interrupted his emotion: "When was Shen Zhanjie injured seven years ago?"

Just as Chen Shiliu lamented, seven years ago was not the same as it is now, Shen Zhanjie definitely coaxed Mrs. Xu in everything, and never dared to bring his fancy intestines to Mrs. Xu.Although the two were newly married at that time and Xu's family was delicate, but being able to beat Shen Zhanjie must be because Shen Zhanjie had a real "derailment".

Chen Shiliu said: "I found out that Shen Zhanjie was injured in mid-February. It is said that when Shen Zhanjie came back that night, he was full of alcohol and his forehead was red, as if he had been injured. Xu was still very concerned at first, but he was so close. Afterwards, she smelled an unfamiliar smell of powder on Shen Zhanjie's body, and there were red rouge marks on her cheeks that were not wiped clean. Xu was furious immediately, and decided that Shen Zhanjie was not a socializing friend at all, but went to have sex with women. Shen Zhanjie Of course he refused to admit it, and because Mrs. Xu was too strong and merciless, Shen Zhanjie couldn't save face, and after he said a few harsh words, Mrs. Xu made a move."

"Shen Zhanjie was injured when he went back?"

Chen Shiliu frowned: "I asked someone specifically, and it was a servant of the Shen family. It is said that Shen Zhanjie was indeed drunk when he came home, and he walked staggeringly, so he needed someone to help him. But he didn't go back to his yard immediately, on the contrary. He said that he was afraid that Mrs. Xu would not like the smell of alcohol, so he went to the garden to disperse the wine. Oh, by the way, someone heard a movement in the garden, like Shen Zhanjie’s cry. Later, Shen Zhanjie said that he accidentally fell while walking. Yes! The wipe on Shen Zhanjie’s forehead That's where the injury was."

Mid-February, screams, scratches...and Shen Zhanjie's cover-up.

Mu Qingyan recalled that "Qing Ge" sneaked back in May, if he said, it wasn't the first time, Qing Ge had sneaked back as early as February, and even bumped into Shen Zhanjie...

The so-called frequent walks along the river would never get your shoes wet. Since Qing Ge ventured back to Shen's house, there must be a possibility of being discovered.It was dark, and there were indeed no people in the garden, but people like Shen Zhanjie would appear temporarily for some reason.

If Shen Zhanjie saw Qing Ge, how would he react?

He would definitely think it was Qu Shi!

Qing Ge, who was misidentified, must have fled in panic. Shen Zhanjie would definitely be puzzled and questioned, but he didn't.Contrary to common sense, there must be a reason. In view of Shen Zhanjie's philandering record and his drunkenness, would he offend "Qu Shi" in a daze and be beaten? Faced with inquiries from his servants, he naturally dared not say what happened.

In order to verify the inference, he immediately rushed to the Shen family's old house.

As predicted, Shen Zhanjie's figure appeared on the path in the garden in the night.

"Okay, you stay here, I'll sit alone for a while." Shen Zhanjie rubbed his temples and continued walking towards the garden.It's not that he didn't want to go back to rest right away, but that Mrs. Xu saw this drunken appearance, so he had to nagging.He really didn't want to listen to the nagging, his head was going to explode, he would rather enjoy the cool breeze here.

As he was walking like this, a low-pitched singing came over.

Shen Zhanjie went looking for the sound, and saw a slender figure standing in front of the flowers. Even though he didn't see the front and never came to him, he seemed to have smelled the fragrance of him.Shen Zhanjie drank too much alcohol, his nerves were excited, his brain was paralyzed, and he couldn't think of any worries at the moment when he wouldn't do things when he was sober.At least, right now he didn't think about the identity of a woman, only knew that she was strange but seductive, and immediately went over to hug her.

As the third master of the Shen family, he used to secretly make fun of his maids, so I really didn't think there was anything wrong.

But when the woman cried out in surprise, she struggled and escaped.

"Why are you hiding! How can I wrong you!" Shen Zhanjie stretched out his hand to pull again, confident that the other party would recognize his identity and would never object again, but the woman turned around while struggling, revealing her face.Shen Zhanjie met him with a glance, and as if struck by lightning, he staggered and fell down immediately, hitting his forehead on the ground.

He was half awake from the alcohol, and he didn't care about his headache, so he quickly got up and explained, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, it's because I'm drunk and confused..."

Before he finished speaking, the sound disappeared again.

The woman in front of him has disappeared, as if everything was his illusion just now.

Later, when the servants heard the movement, Shen Zhanjie only said that he didn't see the road clearly and stumbled and fell.

Mu Qingyan noticed that Shen Zhanjie had a different expression when he left the garden, and turned his head twice to look at the shadowy garden.Maybe he was wondering about Qu's whereabouts, or maybe he sensed some kind of inconsistency, but he was not clear-headed for a while and couldn't straighten out his thoughts.

Mu Qingyan told Wen Jixue everything he saw.

Wen Jixue didn't think too much, and said: "Perhaps that night, when Shen Zhanjie was caught off guard, Shen Zhanjie thought that the woman was Qu Shi, but he would definitely realize something was wrong afterwards. He would think: Why did Qu Shi go to the garden alone at night? His performance is very different? Why is he acting more guilty than him? Then, he will go to investigate, and it will be easy to find that it is impossible for Qu to go to the garden that night, unless he knows the avatar technique."

"Under normal circumstances, he would not suspect that there is someone who is as similar to Qu Shi. He has coveted the interests of the big house. If 'Qu Shi' has appeared suspicious, he will definitely investigate, and maybe he will find the garden The well, found the Chamber of Secrets."

Wen Jixue said suddenly: "It's better to ask him directly!"

Mu Qingyan thought for a while, then nodded: "Alright, just to test how much he was involved in this matter."

Just as he was about to leave, Mu Lin came over with a pile of dust on his head.Mu Lin found someone to clean up the underground tunnel, and he came to see it from time to time. When Mu Qingyan came over, Mu Lin went down the well.

"Brother, is everything going well?" Mu Qingyan asked.

Mu Lin shook his head, patted the soil particles on his hair and said: "It was relatively smooth at first, but just now I found that the front was blocked. I don't know if it was man-made or it collapsed. The part is full of soil. The blockage is dense. I compared the direction and length of the underpass. It is two streets away. There are residential houses there, so I can’t see any problems for the time being. The problem now is that I dare not dig casually for fear that if I dig It will collapse. Second brother, look..."

"Forget it, don't dig." Mu Qingyan gave up this line because he was trying, and it is reasonable to have such a result.

Mu Lin nodded and asked him again: "You are..."

"Brother came just in time, go see Shen Zhanjie."

Shen Zhanjie is easy to find. He just had a fight with Mrs. Xu yesterday, and he went to live in the winery.

The Shen family's wine shop is quite old and occupies a large area. There are more than a dozen large houses lined up in a row, and each large yard is covered with bamboo mats, where the freshly cooked ingredients are drying.The Shen family also has a wine shop in the city, but their main business is wholesale, and a number of carriages stop at the back door of the wine shop to pick up goods every day.

Shen Fuli is in charge of wine making, and Shen Zhanjie is in charge of purchasing raw materials and shipping wine.

When Mu Qingyan and the others came over, the wine shop was busy shipping goods, and after waiting for a while, Shen Zhanjie came over.

In terms of appearance, Shen Zhanjie is the most outstanding of the four brothers, but he himself is sleek and sophisticated, with shrewdness hidden in his eyes, and he is not as handsome as Shen Youyun.Even so, people who don't know the details of him should praise him when they see him.

Shen Zhanjie quickly scanned the few people, and finally his eyes fell on Mu Qingyan: "It turns out that this is Mr. Mu Shen Duan Mu. He has admired his name for a long time. It's a pleasure to meet you. Master Mu, Mr. Chen, and this Mr. Wen, the former I came to look for Mr. Shen, what happened?"

"There is a secret room in your Shen family's old house. Except for Shen Youyun, the rest of you say you don't know about it. I have a question. I want to ask the third master to help analyze and analyze. Do you think the eldest wife will know about the secret room in Lingfeng Xiaozhu?" This is Mu Qingyan's temptation.

Shen Zhanjie was slightly taken aback. Obviously, he knew the intentions of the people coming, but he had made a lot of preparations, but he didn't expect the other party to ask such a question.

Shen Zhanjie quickly calmed down his discoloration, and pondered solemnly: "If I say anything else, I dare not speak nonsense, but I want to say whether the eldest wife knows about the secret room... Maybe she does. To tell you the truth, my elder brother is passionate, but I respect my sister-in-law very much, so I never bring back women from outside. The big and small affairs of the family are decided by the sister-in-law. If the eldest brother is not there, the Lingfeng Xiaozhu will also be taken care of by the sister-in-law. The secret room has been abandoned. If the eldest brother Knowing the existence of the secret room, I think I won't hide it from my sister-in-law."

Mu Qingyan changed the subject: "Does the third master like the garden of the old house?"

Shen Zhanjie was taken aback for another moment, and hurriedly said with a smile: "I'm not a big brother, I'm not interested in flowers and plants."

"I heard that the third master often went to the garden. I thought you liked the scenery of flowers and plants, but it turns out that you just like to be alone."

Shen Zhanjie couldn't help looking at Mu Qingyan secretly, but said in his mouth: "Too much entertainment, it's annoying, and occasionally I like to be alone. I'm laughing."
