Daughter of General

Chapter 205 Ming Wu
When Shen Yulan woke up in the morning, she got some unpleasant news-there was a thief in the house last night.Although it was discovered in time and did not cause any loss to the manor, it still made people feel uncomfortable.

Shen Yulan glanced at Qi Yuzhou, he was obviously unhappy, his face was black and his lips were pursed, his expression was as cold as the wind in the twelfth lunar month.

"If that's the case, let's send more people at night from today. Also, the number of night watchmen will be increased, and the intervals will be shortened." After pondering for a moment, she spoke.

"If there is such a thing again, the night watchmen and gatekeepers will all deduct the monthly payment." Qi Yuzhou looked around gloomyly, and he could only see that people bowed their heads before giving up.

But she thinks it's so good—it can't be too loose or too strict with the servants.If it is too loose, accidents will easily occur, and if it is too strict, it will not be able to win people's hearts.It happened that she and him had a white face and the other had a red face, so they complemented each other perfectly.

Of course, Qi Yuzhou was really angry.It's just that it's useless for you to get really angry about things like this.There is only a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days.The thief is coming, can you stop it?The main point is to see if we can find out early, and then prevent it from happening.

However, fortunately, there are no other female relatives in the mansion, otherwise it would be really unpleasant to hear about it.For this, she was still quite annoyed.

After seeing off Qi Yuzhou, Shen Yulan thought about it again - he had never heard of any thieves who dared to steal from a rich family's house before.As soon as you come here, there are mostly dignitaries, and the patrols are intensive, and which of the big families doesn't have a housekeeper?In addition, there are backgrounds. If something really happens, the government will investigate and deal with it hard?Therefore, the thief did not dare to come.On the contrary, ordinary well-to-do small households go there more—after all, those people have no background, so naturally they are not afraid of anything.And there are almost no guards.

After thinking about it, he asked people to ask where the thief went after climbing over the wall and entering the mansion.Is it the warehouse or Qi Yuzhou's study, or somewhere else.

In the end, the news I got was quite surprising—I didn't expect it to be in the direction of the backyard, and it was also in the direction of the main courtyard.

These Shen Yulan are a little puzzled - this main courtyard is the place with the strongest guards.Not to mention the large number of servants, the main courtyard is the center of the whole house, and it is not so easy to get there.If you really want to go, it will be as difficult as going up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire.

She looked at Huoxiang, Lianxin and the others, frowned and asked softly, "Do you think the other party has any purpose?" The reason why she asked this was because thieves usually have to step on the spot before they act. How can we ensure that the treasure can be found smoothly after sneaking in?Since the other party went straight to the main courtyard, it might be a plan made in advance.

Lianxin couldn't think of anything, but Huoxiang hesitated slightly and then had a guess: "Could it be that they came after us. Maybe it's not a thief, but an assassin?"

Shen Yulan's heart trembled, and then she remembered the assassin she met on the road that day.It's not unreasonable for Huoxiang to say this.On the contrary, at this moment, it seems quite reasonable.Can't say, is that so?
After smacking her heart for a while, Shen Yulan narrowed her eyes suddenly, "Do you think it was aimed at us from the beginning? Doesn't it have anything to do with Qi Yuzhou?" To be precise, it was aimed at her.

After thinking about it this way, she only felt that something in her heart had been shattered, and her eyes suddenly became brighter, and she opened her mouth to tell her guesses one by one: "The other party came for me, because they wanted to Get what is in my hand, or don’t want me to reveal something—or, just simply warn me. Of course, it may also be to put me to death.”

Thinking about it this way, she was almost certain of the person hiding behind her.She just didn't think of it before, but now that she thought about it, she naturally felt that it was really reasonable for that person to do such a thing.and fit that person's character.

Huoxiang Xinsi was the closest to Shen Yulan, and her complexion changed violently at that moment, turning livid all of a sudden.Immediately afterwards, the complexions of the girls also became serious.

Shen Yulan thought about it again and again, and became more and more certain about her guess.

"Go, find someone to visit Mama Lin's place. If it's not possible, let them come and live in the mansion. Then go and ask Mrs. Li if there is any strange movement in Shen's house." He bent his fingers and tapped the table lightly. Shen Yulan's face was already grim and solemn.

That's right, the person she guessed in her heart was Shen Yushan.Although Gu Meng was assassinated some time ago, the other party had a plan.Now that she and Qi Yuzhou are married, the other party has no reason.But she was different, Guo Shi's suicide note was held in her hand at the beginning, and she even said that she wanted to show it to Shen Junzhi, which involved many shady things.Shen Yushan may not be willing to see things go on like this.

The most similar thing between Shen Yushan and Guo Shi is: the same cruelty.The same... like cutting grass and roots.

If she died, then the suicide note was also destroyed.Then Shen Yushan can hold this matter and never be known.And Guo's death was really a "death of illness".

It's a pity that what Shen Yushan didn't expect was that she had asked someone to put away that letter long ago.The one that's out there now... is a forgery.What I'm afraid of is that someone will use a method to destroy it, and there will be no evidence to prove it.Also put away, there is another testimony.A vital testimony.

But now... Now that he has figured this out, she doesn't mind teasing the angry person behind her: "Afterwards, I will write a letter, and you will send it to the post station. Send it to my father. By the way, remember Make big moves, and make sure everyone who should know knows about it.”

This letter can help her test whether her guess is right or not.

Shen Yulan has always been an activist, so immediately she was rubbed in, wrote a letter, and specially wrote some more words, and packed a thick stack in an envelope, which looked very ostentatious.Those who are unintentional will only think that this letter has too much content, while those who are interested... may wonder, is there another letter in it?

This one just sent out the letter with great fanfare, but the other one was led in by Mama Lin.

Seeing Lin's mother frowning, Shen Yulan knew that something was wrong, and her heart sank slightly at the moment, and then she became annoyed - the other party touched her bottom line again and again, it was really unbearable.

Even though Shen Yulan asked Mother Lin to excuse her, she still obeyed her duty and then sat down to speak respectfully.

"Nurse Qin's son and daughter-in-law came here yesterday, saying that they want to pick up Nanny Qin and want to go back and be filial." Mother Lin didn't have much to detour, and after she sat down, she said straight to the point Said: "I looked at that, with a look of eagerness but not much concern, and even a little bit of caring about Mother Qin's life and death, just asking to take her away, but I didn't let her go - but here it is again. There is still a lot of quarrel Make a big fuss, say that we deliberately hinder their family happiness, and say that our Shen family has a black heart and wants people to work for a lifetime."

Although the house where Mama Lin lived was attached to the Shen family, it could be said to be a small courtyard divided by the Shen family, but Mama Lin was no longer a servant of the Shen family.And there are other neighbors around - such a commotion, one can imagine the embarrassment of Lin's mother.No wonder Lin's mother frowns tightly.

Shen Yulan also knew that it was an important time for Lin's mother to talk about her son's marriage recently.It would be a bad thing if the marriage was ruined because of this.

"In this way, you can send Nanny Qin to me. Just say that Nanny Qin is seriously ill - she needs good medicinal materials, so she can only ask me." Shen Yulan said after a moment of deliberation, and then sneered : "If you want people again, just let them come to me. I want to see what kind of trickery it is."

She planned to have a good meeting with the other party for a while, why didn't she pick up before this?It's time to pick it up.Is there someone behind it or something?
Mother Lin looked ashamed: "It's because I can't handle things well."

"It's because I've hurt my mother." Shen Yulan sighed, and asked the kitchen to pick up a box of snacks for Lin's mother to eat: "It's not what we do here, take it home and taste it, it's just to treat guests It's good too."

Mother Lin thanked her, and then went back.In the afternoon, Mother Qin made arrangements to send it over.Shen Yulan arranged Nanny Qin in a small courtyard in the backyard, not letting too many people in the house know, and assigned two little maids to take care of her.

To be honest, after half a year of recuperation, Nanny Qin has become much stronger. Although her old illness still hasn't gone away, she has recovered for the most part.Now that he was able to leave by himself, he even saluted Shen Yulan anxiously.

Seeing Shen Yulan, she couldn't help but curl her lips: "After so many years, Mother Qin still remembers how to salute. It can be seen that she has rules and understands rules."

Such a single sentence obviously made Qin Nanny a little restless.

Seeing it in her eyes, she didn't say much, so she was taken away—and let Mother Qin feel uneasy, why bother to explain too much?The master only needs to give orders to the slaves, and does not need to explain.Besides, it's better to let Nanny Qin figure it out by herself.Maybe... I figured it out, I saw a lot of things, and I was willing to tell others.

Except for Nanny Qin, Li's side was also frightened - although the words that came back were ambiguous, one could tell that something had happened.

In this way, Shen Yulan naturally confirmed her guess even more.Isn't Shen Yushan only able to have such a big handwriting and such a domineering posture?
But this matter is not urgent, anyway, the other party will show his feet sooner or later.Now, it is still necessary to quickly help the Chang family to handle the matter satisfactorily.
