Chapter 78 Questioning
"Miss Ma boasted, it's not as good as yours, it's just that she is more attentive than ordinary people." Shen Qingyan said politely.

"Qingyan, do you know how to embroider large pieces, such as screens?"

"Of course my older sister would. She embroidered the screen in our house." Before Shen Qingyan could answer, Shen Qingyu rushed to say, "My older sister is smart." The little girl raised her head proudly, As if it was me who embroidered the screen.

"Really, Yu'er, tell Sister Ma, what did your sister embroider?" Miss Ma asked curiously.

"A lot of horses, but very imposing, Yu'er likes it."

"Yu'er, why are you talking so much?" It was too late for Shen Qingyan to stop her.

"Qingyan, you're not mean enough, why don't you show me the big embroidered screen." Miss Ma shook her head and sighed, "It seems that you still don't regard me as a friend."

"Just tell me what you have to say." Shen Qingyan sighed, after being in contact with Miss Ma for so long, she knew her temper well.

"That's because you know me best." Miss Ma's eyes lit up, "The county magistrate in Yuchun County is going to celebrate his birthday, and the concubine of Wu Yuanwai in the town is his niece, and he wants to order a birthday letter from me. The embroidered screen is a birthday gift, but she doesn't like other embroiderers' work, so she takes a fancy to yours, look..."

Miss Ma didn't know the relationship between Shen Qingyan, Shen Wengui, and Shen Chunyu at all, she just said this from the standpoint of a businessman, so Shen Chunyan didn't blame her.

But thinking that it was a congratulatory gift for Shen Wengui, she went through this hurdle in her heart, "I'm sorry, Miss Ma, I'm going to disappoint you. I won't take this job." She is not very short of money now, it depends on whether she takes the job or not. her own mood.

"Man, have you started embroidering the embroidery?" At this time, a nervous female voice came from across the face, "Our uncle's birthday is coming soon, and it will be too late if you don't start embroidering. By then, you are a small embroidery workshop. But I can’t afford to be guilty.”

"Miss Chunhua, why are you here in person?" Madam Ma rushed out to greet her, "I'm not here just now, I'm discussing with her!"

"There's nothing to discuss. You don't have to sell the face of Wu Yuanwai. Don't say that Mr. Shen's matter is the most important thing. You can't afford to offend even the Wu family. Hurry up." Chunhua said. Nostrils turned up, "Don't worry, if you win the favor of Master Shen, you will be indispensable for the reward."

This Chunhua didn't come out with Shen Chunyu last time, so naturally she didn't recognize Shen Qingyan.

"Is the girl too confident? This is Fuchun County. No matter how long that master Shen Cai is, he can't reach here." Shen Qingyan snorted and said: "As for Shen Chunyu from the Wu family, she is just a maidservant." A concubine who is not too high-ranking has become so big. Take a word back, this is Fuchun County, and your Wu family is just a little richer, not the magistrate of the county. So you still have to speak Pay attention to propriety, if there is a good saying, misfortune comes out of your mouth!"

Chunhua was so angry that Shen Qingyan's face turned into a pig's liver, her lips trembled, and it took a long time for her to say a word, "You little girl, wait for me, offended Master Shen's niece, Master Wu's nine Auntie, don't even think about having a good life." Putting down this ruthless remark that had no deterrent effect, she left in a hurry.

These words had no effect on Shen Qingyan at all, but they frightened Miss Ma, "Miss Chunhua, please speak up if you have something to say!" She yelled at Chunhua's back, but the other party gave her a hard look.

"Oh, what should I do?" Miss Ma stomped her feet anxiously.

"What should I do?" Shen Qingyan asked calmly, "Is the Wu family so scary?"

"Hey, Qingyan, don't you have a grudge against that ninth aunt of the Wu family? Why don't you give her face like this? She is the niece of Master Shen in Yuchun County, and this Wu family is a family member in Panshui Town. Ba, none of us small businesses would dare to fight against them, but now..."

"I'm sorry, Miss Ma, I made it difficult for you, but didn't you think of going to the Yamen to sue the Wu family?" Shen Qingyan asked puzzledly, "No matter how rich the Wu family is, they are just a merchant, and they will never talk to officials. Right?"

"You don't know that a daughter of the Wu family has married the county lord as a concubine. With the support of the county lord, how dare we street people sue them?"

"Marry the county master?" Shen Qingyan was a little unbelievable. Zhu Mingzhe would accept a concubine, and she was the daughter of a merchant. . "Is it new?"

"Yeah, why do you ask that, do you know the county master?" Miss Ma asked in surprise.

"I don't know." Shen Qingyan pulled Shen Qingyu up and said: "Don't worry, there is always a way to solve the problem. The Wu family can't just cover the sky with one hand, it's getting late, I'll go back first."

After leaving the embroidery workshop, Shen Qingyan was so angry that she ran into Chengfuji. She wanted to go directly to the county government to question Zhu Mingzhe, but thinking about her identity, she decided not to go. Anyway, they always came through Lu Chengfu. She contacted the other party, so she also wanted Lu Chengfu to help her bring a letter to Zhu Mingzhe, and she waited in the box Lu Chengfu prepared for her.

After a while, Zhu Mingzhe came, and Yin Guangzhai came with him.

"Qingyan, do you want something from me? Who messed with you? Could it be another thief at home!" Zhu Mingzhe looked at the angry Shen Qingyan, and blurted out involuntarily.

"Your house has just been burglarized. Your whole family has been robbed." Looking at his smiling face, Shen Qingyan had the urge to punch him, "When did you learn the trick of collusion between government and businessmen?"

"Collusion between officials and businessmen?" Zhu Mingzhe was stunned, "Where did you start? I have only been here for a few months. Which businessman can I collude with?" But then he changed the subject and said flatteringly: "If you want to For business, I will definitely open the door of convenience for you, does this count as collusion between the government and businessmen?"

"What unforgivable thing did this kid do?" Yin Guangdi gave Zhu Mingzhe an elbow, "If you want to vent your anger, just beat him up, and I will pretend I didn't see it."

After Zhu Mingzhe heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Could it be that in his eyes, this is how his brother was being betrayed.

"Then you have to let me be a sensible ghost." He decided not to talk to his brother who valued sex and despised friends, and asked Shen Qingyan directly.
