Chapter 339
Su Wen Yuan's eyes became serious. "This looks like a match for the Su family's servants. They usually take the plate and go out to do some chores, but after returning home, they will have to return the cards. I haven't heard about any loss of cards in the house recently."
"Sir Su, are you sure you haven't lost your match?"
Su Wenyuan frowned, "Normally, I would be very busy, so I'm not too sure about whether or not I've lost my card. I'll get the housekeeper to come over later to ask if I've lost it, then we'll report it to Master Shen."
"Alright, since that's the case, then I won't continue disturbing you. If Sir Su remembers anything, then please let me know in time."
"Of course." Firstly, that Wang Zhu was a hoodlum himself, so his words were not believable and questionable. Secondly, even if there was really such a thing, it would be very simple if the Su Clan wanted Wang Zhu to not be able to open his mouth and let them know that they did not want him to cause any trouble …
They had made it to Shuntian.
However, his routine inquiry had caused rumors to circulate in the capital.
For the past few days, the capital had been bustling with noise and excitement, and most of it was related to the Su Clan. This time, it was even more rare to see a lawsuit involved.
Many people stood out, discussing the farce in front of the Su Clan's residence.
That day, Old Lady Wang and Old Lady Liu's sons each took a hundred taels of silver and left. It was enough to let the commoners discuss this for a while. After all, that was a hundred taels of silver, so it was so generous that it was enough to cause anyone to be speechless.
Many people vividly described the scene that day, "The person who took out the banknotes and passed them over was a maid called Mo Yu, you all probably didn't know that, but Mo Yu was not an ordinary maid, she served the Old Mistress in the Su family, otherwise how could she have casually taken out two hundred taels of silver?"
"Was the silver given by Mo Yu? Didn't they say that it was given to her by the Su Clan's young mistress, who was also that Lady Mu? "
"At that time, I heard what Lady Mu said and said that Wang Zhu from the Wang family was blackmailing and sent for a doctor to investigate the cause of Old Lady Wang's death. However, the eldest wife of the Su family stopped it …"
"Why stop it? No matter how generous the Su Clan is, they shouldn't be able to say that a servant gave away so much silver after death. There must be a reason behind it …"
"Who knows, but Master Shen went to the Su Family to ask, maybe …" A sentence that would cause a hundred people to completely change their appearances. In addition, Mu Yunyao had people secretly guide them, causing rumors to be spread throughout the capital: Lady Wang and Lady Liu were killed by the Su family. The reason why they gave a hundred silver taels was because they wanted to keep their mouths shut. And the son of the King's wife, the King.
The Su Clan ignored him and even sent people to harm him secretly. Wang Zhu had no other choice, and in order to survive, he had to bring up the matter at Shuntian.
When Su Wenyuan heard this news, his face turned ashen. He immediately went to see his wife, the Meng family, and asked, "Then why did the King's wife and his family come all the way to the mansion? Why did you give them money?"
Madam Meng was in the middle of considering how to punish Mu Yunyao, but when she heard these words, she didn't react for a moment. "Old Master, why are you so angry?" Do you know how the news in the capital has spread? I wonder how many people said that our Su Clan killed many people and then gave them a hundred silver taels as a fee to seal our mouths. If this continued, then the matter might unravel in front of the Emperor.
"
The first wife was shocked. "That day happened too suddenly. Coupled with the fact that someone was slandering Yu Yi's reputation outside, I was busy helping Yu Yi correct her name and left it to Mu Yunyao to handle …"
"Give it to her? You think this matter is not messy enough and you still want to drag Mu Yunyao into this? "
"Master, what exactly is going on? I was confused even after hearing it, even now I still don't understand."
"Forget it, this matter is completely illusory. I'm not afraid of Shen Bingshu investigating it. Now that I've checked the cards in the house, is there anything that has been lost?"
The first lady quickly sent people to check, and then she replied that none of the cards were missing.
The First Madam heaved a sigh of relief, "Master, the pairing of cards in the manor is not very meticulously done. In order to discredit our Su Clan, someone intentionally faked it."
Su Wen Yuan nodded his head: "You go and thoroughly investigate the house first, don't spread any nonsense, I am going to the Shuntian right now." If there was no problem with the cards, then the Su Clan's suspicions could be cleared.
The First Lady nodded, but her frown did not relax. She kept feeling that things weren't so simple. While she was thinking, she heard Senior Servant Qi report, "Madam, a woman came to report that she's here to deliver something to Miss Mu."
The First Wife was extremely disgusted with Mu Yunyao, and upon hearing that, she sneered: "Sending all sorts of things to the manor, what realm do you take our Su Family to be? Did you ask clearly, what was the gift? "
"He said he was giving away the money earned from Nebula Pavilion and Unenviable Pavilion."
The first wife's eyes lit up. "Giving out money?" "Do you know how much I'll send you?" This … This servant didn't ask. " Senior Servant Qi's face was pale. Even now, her throat still ached faintly, but she had not done much in Baohua Temple and had been ordered to punish her several times by Su Yuyi. Afraid that her position was not preserved, she decided to make amends.
Serve the First Lady.
The first lady's eyes darted up and down as she smiled coldly, "Call him in. I'll see him in person."
"Yes."
The person who came to send off the silver was Yun Chun. Ever since Mu Yunyao had left Tomb City, Steward Qin had wholeheartedly plotted to set up an unenviable building in the capital. The place already had some prospects, so Yun Chun brought him here to settle down first.
Mu Yunyao had only received the news before going to Baohua Temple. Due to the lack of time, she didn't even have the time to see Yun Chun. After the accident at Baohua Temple, she had asked the secretary to contact her and ask her to do something.
Yun Chun's appearance could not be considered outstanding, but the aura around her body made her feel particularly comfortable. However, she had deliberately restrained her aura, making it seem much more ordinary.
"Greetings, Madam." Yun Chun came in and knelt down, looking a little stiff.
Seeing her expression, the first wife calmed down. It seemed that she was just a servant, "Are you here to give the silver to Yunyao?"
"Madam, yes."
"Yunyao went to the Treasure Hua Temple to pray. She hasn't come back yet, so give her to me."
Yun Chun looked hesitant, "Is this inappropriate?"
"Hmm? Could it be that the Su Clan is able to accept this little bit of silver? " The First Wife's expression did not change and her voice turned colder.
Yun Chun quickly bowed, his expression becoming more reserved, "I would never dare to think like this. Since the young miss is not here, then I shall hand over the silver to the lady first. I'll have to trouble the lady to pass it to you."
The first wife slightly nodded her head, "En, Yunyao should be back tomorrow. It's not easy for you to come all the way from Ziling City, you should stay in the mansion for two days first."
Yun Chun was pleasantly surprised. "Yes, thank you Madam."
"Senior Servant Qi, take them away and settle them down." "Yes."
