After rebirth, my wife just wants to be a widow

"Wandering around casually?" Shen Ruoyan tilted her head under the moonlight and repeated innocently, then her eyes turned with a bit of disdain, "This is the first time I heard that someone wandering around casually would end up in my father's study. Come here."

Xia Meng panicked, but still defended herself stubbornly: "I didn't know this was Lord Shen's study."

When Shen Ruoyan saw her lowering her head, she knew that Xia Meng was going to pretend to be pitiful and miserable again.

Sure enough, the next moment, Xia Meng sniffed, raised her hand to wipe away the non-existent tears, and said in a low voice: "Today is New Year's Eve, the whole yard is full of people laughing and laughing, and I am the only one alone. I stay in the house. I was really bored, so I wanted to go out for a walk. When I walked here, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach. Seeing that there was no one in this room, I wanted to come in, sit down and have a rest, but I didn’t expect you to come in at this time. "

Shen Ruoyan chuckled lightly, deliberately looked around the study, and said: "According to Daning's laws and regulations, the value of stolen property is approximately equal to a bolt of silk, and the beating is seventy.

If the value of the stolen goods reaches five pieces of silk, he will be sentenced to one year in prison. If the amount of the stolen goods exceeds fifty pieces of silk, he will be exiled for three thousand miles and serve three years of hard labor according to the law.

There are many good things in my father's study. If a few pieces are missing, their value can easily exceed fifty bolts of silk.

You are pregnant now. If you were exiled for three thousand miles, you would probably die on the way before reaching your destination.

Miss Xia, please think carefully before telling me, what exactly are you doing here tonight? "

Listening to Shen Ruoyan reciting Daning's regulations skillfully, Xia Meng was so scared that her legs went weak.

She was now trapped in the study. If the eldest lady acted mischievously and casually said that she had lost a few things, she would not be able to explain it even if she had the words to say.However, when thinking about the suffering she had suffered, Xia Meng felt that even if she died, she would never want to return to the Taifu again. In addition, the Shen family had always been upright, so they should disdain the use of dirty tricks such as framing others.

After weighing the matter, Xia Meng continued to be bold and denied firmly: "No, I really didn't come here to steal anything. I didn't take anything."

Shen Ruoyan put her hands behind her back, paced back and forth a few times, and said in a serious tone: "Miss Xia, I care about your body, so I gave you a chance to admit your mistake. If you tell me what you are here for, read on. When you are pregnant with my brother's child, it is not impossible to let you go.

Don't wait until you are sent to the government to regret it. By then, it will be too late to say anything. "

Shen Ruoyan threatened and offered a chance, but Xia Meng refused to give in. She still had a bitter look on her face, as if she had been wronged a lot, and insisted that she was just here to rest.

Xia Meng said pitifully: "Miss, you really wronged me this time. I really didn't take anything. If you don't believe me, you can search me."

After saying that, she spread her hands, as if she was willing to accept the search.

Shen Ruoyan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her father walking quickly from the corner of her eye.

What she just said to Xia Meng was, on the one hand, to save unnecessary trouble, and on the other hand, she was deliberately delaying time.

Even if Xia Meng refuses to say anything, when her father comes, he will still be able to find out what's wrong with her.

Xia Meng spread his hands and was waiting calmly for Shen Ruoyan to search him, but when he saw the girl in front of him smiled slyly, "There's no need to search her."

Just when Xia Meng thought that he had fooled him about this matter, Shen Ruoyan continued: "Since nothing was stolen, is it possible that you secretly put something in my father's study?"

Suddenly, Xia Meng's face turned ashen.

Isn't Shen Ruoyan just a little girl who hasn't left the court yet, how can she be so smart?

Because she was too nervous, Xia Meng's fingers trembled slightly. If this thing happened to her, even if the Shen family didn't beat her to death tonight, there would be ten thousand ways for the Taifu to make her life worse than death.

The hellish experiences of the past came to mind. Xia Meng finally couldn't stand anymore and slumped on the ground. However, he still refused to give up and wanted to find a reason to excuse himself.

Just as she was about to speak, Master Shen had already arrived at the door.

Seeing that her father had finally arrived, Shen Ruoyan stepped aside and handed the control over to Lord Shen's hands.

"Dad, she sneaked into your study in the middle of the night and hid something in her." Shen Ruoyan pointed at Xia Meng and complained.

Master Shen glanced at Xia Meng with a serious look. He had been in a high position in the temple for many years and had developed a majestic air. Now he looked at Xia Meng with a bit of anger. Xia Meng suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his whole body was shaking unconsciously. got up.

Master Shen lit the candle, and the room was illuminated by a warm candlelight.

Xia Meng's heart felt like it was in darkness.

Under the great pressure, she couldn't help but cry softly.

Ever since she entered the Shen family, she had been pretending to be pitiful all day long, but now she actually shed tears for the first time.

Shen Ruoyan walked up to the woman who was lying on the ground, twitching, and asked: "What exactly did you hide in my father's study? Do you want to tell it yourself, or do you want us to find it?"

Although Xia Meng was frightened, she still had a lucky mentality and refused to say anything. She just kept shaking her head to express that she was wronged.

Because this matter should not be made public, Mr. Shen did not ask the boy who usually took care of the study to come over. And Shen Ruoyan didn't know what was in her father's study. She wanted to help, but he couldn't help.

Poor Mr. Shen, on the night of New Year's Eve, I was happily drinking a few glasses of wine, lying comfortably on the bed and about to fall asleep. When I was half asleep, someone woke me up from the warm bed and ran here. He came to the cold study and had to rummage through the unknown things Xia Meng had hidden in his study.

It's really harder than it should be.

Lord Shen searched for a long time and only found half of the study room.

Seeing her father beating her hardened waist, Shen Ruoyan couldn't help but said to Xia Meng: "Look, no matter what you are hiding, we will find it out sooner or later. Why don't you tell the truth now to save everyone's time."

Xia Meng shook his head and refused to say anything.

She just sat on the ground, biting her lips pitifully and sobbing softly, making Shen Ruoyan look like a wicked person.

After flipping through the pages for a long time, Mr. Shen finally found three pieces of paper sandwiched in the pages of a book on the bottom row of the bookshelf.

Seeing that the thing was finally found, Shen Ruoyan curiously poked her head over to take a look.

Huh?

title deed?

The Taifu tried his best to arrange for Xia Meng to sneak into their home, but actually stuffed the land deeds of three Zhuangzi properties on the outskirts of the capital into his father's study?

What kind of medicine is sold in Taifu's gourd?
