Wan felt that the copper key was about to pierce his eyeballs, so he nodded in panic, and said tremblingly, "No, I haven't seen it..."
Liu Wei squeezed her eyes: "I really haven't seen it?"
Wan said tremblingly: "Really, really, I haven't seen... no, no, I seem... I seem to have seen..."
Liu Wei threw her head aside, stood up straight, and hung the key in front of Wan Shi: "Speak!"
Wan Shi fell to the ground, his face as white as paper, looking at the young man on top of his head in fear and panic, then carefully confirmed the shape of the key again, and said shiveringly: "I... I saw it a long time ago... …”
"How long ago? Where did you see it?"
Wan Shi swallowed her saliva, turned her eyeballs to the side, and turned to Jiang Shi's direction.
Jiang Shi was still holding her daughter, and when she saw Wan Shi looking at her, she froze for a moment.
Liu Wei took the key and walked towards Mrs. Jiang.
Sun Ke in Jiang's arms was obviously terrified by the scene just now, and burst into tears with a "wow".
Jiang hurriedly coaxed her daughter, and lightly covered her mouth, telling her not to cry.
Liu Wei didn't get too close, and stopped after a few steps, picked up the key again, and dangled in the air: "The second young lady just now, it seems that she didn't mention knowing this key."
Jiang Shi pursed her lips, lowered her eyelids and said, "Returning to my lord, I really don't know this key."
Liu Wei looked at Wan Shi again.
The Wan family was shocked, and hurriedly said: "I saw you take it. Wasn't the second brother in charge of the cloth workshop before? The cloth workshop was closed last Spring Festival. I clearly saw that you took this key to open the gate of the cloth workshop. I brought out a lot of cloth, and I read it to my sister-in-law at the time, and you are poor, I am too lazy to expose you, but how come you don’t know this key?”
Jiang's face suddenly turned pale, and her lips lost their color.
On the other hand, Mrs. Sun recovered her strength, and immediately slapped Jiang again: "It turned out that you stole the two 'Wanhuagui kites' that were paid tribute to Beijing last year! You bitch! Do you know the state government office? Come to receive the goods, my Sun family almost went to jail because of the theft of the tribute? Tell me, where did you sell the Wanhuagui kite? Seriously!"
Mrs. Jiang was slapped several times by Mrs. Sun so hard that her back was burdened. She was trembling all over, panicked all over, and tremblingly denied: "No, no, I really didn't..."
"Someone has seen it, how dare you say no, see if I don't beat you to death! You are a loser who stole from your mother-in-law's house!"
Mrs. Sun's hand strength is really strong, within a few strokes, blood came out from the corner of Jiang's mouth, but she still bit her teeth and said nothing.
Sun Ke cried even harder in her mother's arms. Mrs. Sun got annoyed and grabbed her three-year-old granddaughter's hair and pulled the child out.
Seeing this, Liu Wei narrowed her eyes.
I saw Mrs. Jiang knelt down in a hurry, hugged her daughter, and cried, "I said, I said, I said... no, it's not me, it's my husband... he, he owed the gambling house a thousand taels, said A friend has a way. If you sell Wanhuagui, you can give him two thousand taels. After paying back the money from the gambling house, there is only half left... It's not me... It's really not me... "
When Mrs. Sun heard the words, she felt that her eyes went dark, and her whole body was going to explode. Member Sun was also dizzy, and lay on the back of the chair directly, gasping for breath.
Mrs. Jiang cried until she was crying, and hugged her daughter timidly: "The husband said that his father refused to give him money, so he was the only one who made such a bad plan. I... I really don't know anything... give him the cloth Later, I was also afraid for a long time, especially when the yamen came, I was really afraid... But at that time, Wanhua Guiyuan had already been sold... and the money had already been obtained, I... I couldn't help it... "
The innocent disaster suffered last year can be said to be a memory that all the Sun family will never forget. The vassal states in the west sent snow satin as a tribute, but the satin was too plain. Two dyed.
At that time, many silk merchants in the south of the Yangtze River were fighting for it, but it happened that Mr. Yin Wan, the governor of Tingjiang Prefecture, and Zuo Shilang, the Ministry of Rites, were brothers from the same school. Relying on the in-law relationship of the Wan family, the Sun family got the right to dye the second dye. With Erran's tribute soaring into the sky, he walked out of Xijin County and entered the feet of the wealthy emperor, but at this time, something happened to the tribute.
The tribute satin dyed and named "Wanhua Guiyuan" was lost.
The Ministry of Rites committed the crime and held the Sun family accountable. The Sun family was almost condemned to murder. In the end, it was still relying on Mr. Wan to deal with it and spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to intercede before the matter was exposed.
And this is why Sun Yuanwai and Mrs. Sun are afraid of Wan's father. The ability of Wan's father is beyond the imagination of rural merchants like them.
But now, Sun Yuanwai and Mrs. Sun knew the truth about the theft of the tribute, and they were really shocked...
I knew that the second son was a good-for-nothing, a dandy and a lazy man, but I never thought that the catastrophe last year was also related to him...
But it is useless to say more now, Sun Jianren is dead, but the accomplice who helped Sun Jian steal the tribute is still there!
Mrs. Sun gritted her teeth and thought about it, she beat Jiang Shi again almost desperately, Jiang Shi didn't say a word, she endured it silently, tears fell like broken threads.
Liu Wei didn't know about those past events, she just watched them fight, and couldn't help feeling disappointed, she was investigating the key for the current murder case, what does the loss of tribute have to do with her
Turning her head, she wanted to ask Wan Shi what else she knew, but she inadvertently glanced at him, and a faint smile appeared on Wan Shi's face.
In a flash, when she went to look again, Wan Shi was still the same young lady who fell on the ground and was beaten by her in fear.
But Liu Wei knew that she was right, so she hit Wan Shi, swept her face, and even broke her fingers. Wan Shi was afraid of her, and shrank like a quail, but she was just afraid and didn't dare to stare at her. , and dare not hate her, but she...
Wan's smile just now was directed in Jiang's direction... She hates Jiang? Why? What kind of grudge do these two have
Liu Wei began to feel that this case was not that simple, and the Sun family was much more complicated than she thought at first.
A Jiang who smells completely different from his daughter.
Wan Shi, who looks big and useless, secretly hates the second daughter-in-law's sister-in-law who was rounded up by her husband's family.
These two young ladies seem to have a lot to hide.
And just now, Wan Shi, who obviously couldn't be summoned by anyone, why did Jiang Shi come out in person
What did they say? How does Wan's view Jiang's
Sun Tong and the Wan family, Sun Jian and the Jiang family... and the cloth dyeing workshop where the two cases happened
Dyeing Cloth Workshop, Wan Hua Gui Yuan, are there any relationship between these two? Why did the Wan family expose the Jiang family at this moment? The theft of the tribute that happened last year, why do we have to talk about it now
