A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 223 Interrogation of Chen
The old lady gave a sharp shout, which made Mr. Chen stop in his tracks. She didn't know what was happening, but she was brought here.
"Mother……"
Mrs. Chen called out hesitantly, and then slowly knelt on the ground under the old lady's sharp gaze.
"If my daughter-in-law did something wrong, please let mother know clearly."
Mrs. Chen obviously hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem yet, and she was wondering if someone was talking nonsense again?
The second lady, Mrs. Yang, sat down next to Su Qingyu. She was too sensible to say anything and nodded towards Su Qingyu.
Su Qingyu was surprised, why did this second sister-in-law seem to have changed her gender?
The last time Mrs. Chen drugged Aunt Xiang to blame Su Qingyu, Mrs. Yang didn't step forward to interfere, and she didn't say anything after that.
Yang originally wanted to ask Su Qingyu what happened, but remembering her husband and son's instructions, she held back the words that came to her lips.
During this period of time, Shen Zhishu and Shen Hong had been giving Yang instructions. They told her not to get involved in the dispute between the first and third wives, and not to add insult to injury. Especially for the third wife, she should not make things difficult for the third wife in the mundane affairs of the inner house.
In Shen Zhishu's words, without Shen Zhixiu, he and Dafang could still compete. But with Shen Zhixiu here, their second wife could only live peacefully.
Shen Hong also said that if the Shen family has such a pillar of the country, everyone else will benefit. If you are not satisfied, your good days will come to an end.
She doesn't have to listen to what others say, but she has to take her husband and son's words to her heart.
After Chen knelt down, Shen Zhiheng also sat on the chair. However, Shen Zhao and Li Chaoyun stood aside. Their mother was still kneeling, so it was difficult for them to sit down.
As soon as Shen Zhao entered the door, he looked at Su Qingyu with sinister eyes. What the hell is she doing? Does she have to kill his mother?
The old lady looked at Mrs. Chen who was kneeling in the middle of the hall with a sullen face, wishing she could get up and slap her twice first.
Seeing that everyone was sitting down, he said, "Since everyone who is supposed to come has come, let's all listen."
"Chen Pinghui has been a housekeeper for many years, lining his own pockets and colluding with other managers. He has made yin and yang accounts and deceived the superiors and deceived the subordinates."
Shen Zhao blurted out: "It's impossible."
Shen Zhiheng closed his eyes tightly, then opened them again helplessly. It's not that he didn't know all these things, but he just didn't take them to heart.
He habitually enjoyed the convenience brought by Chen's personal enrichment, and regretted not stopping her earlier when he was exposed.
Ms. Yang looked surprised. She had been housekeeping for several months and found no problems with the accounts. She turned her head and glanced at Su Qingyu, thinking that she had underestimated her in the past.
Mrs. Chen knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Mother, my daughter-in-law has been wronged. Someone is deliberately trying to harm me. I am not satisfied even if I ban her."
She turned to look at Su Qingyu, "Third brother and sister, are you telling your mother these things? What on earth do you have in mind that you must kill me?"
"If the Shen family marries such a poisonous woman, they are not far from being exterminated."
The old lady slammed the table hard, "What are you talking about? Your third brother and sister were afraid that the family would be uneasy, so they didn't want to tell me, but I saw the clues and asked again and again."
"Are you going to call me a bitch too?"
Mrs. Chen hurriedly said: "My daughter-in-law doesn't dare, mother, please calm down."
The old lady threw the confessions of the kitchen and purchasing stewards at Chen's feet, "See for yourself, these people have confessed, why don't you tell the truth?"
Mrs. Chen picked up the confession scattered at her feet and read it fearfully.
The pages she read were all Mrs. Yan's confessions.
Chen squeezed the confession hard, exposing the veins on the back of her hands, and gritted her teeth to argue.
"Mother is aware that Mrs. Yan is most likely being instigated by others to accuse me unjustly."
"Is it because she was greedy for ink and ended up blaming it on me?"
Chen was not too panicked, because Mr. Qian from the accounting office was already dead. No matter what Mrs. Yan said, as long as there was no actual evidence from the accounting office, it would be just empty slander.
Aunt Hua next to the old lady lowered her head, with deep resentment in her eyes.
Her sister has been with the eldest lady for so many years, doing things for her. In the end, the eldest lady was used as a scapegoat. Fortunately, there is a third wife, otherwise she would not know how her sister died.
Seeing that Chen still refused to admit it, the old lady picked up Mr. Qian's confession lying next to her and threw it away.
"Take a closer look. Mr. Accountant Qian made it clear. All these years, under your instruction, we have cooperated with those merchants inside and outside."
"Those merchants have also confessed, and all the extra money has been given to you."
"So many people have admitted it. Do you think it's okay if you don't admit it?"
When Mrs. Chen looked at Mr. Qian's confession, she felt cold all over her body. Wasn't Mr. Qian burned to death? How can I still write a confession?
Are others not dead? But if he wasn't burned to death, who saved him? Did someone have a premeditated plan, or was it a coincidence?
She was grounded and was unaware of many things that happened in the house today. For a moment, Mrs. Chen fell into panic and didn't know how to reply to the old lady's words.
Before Chen could find a response, the old lady spoke again, and her words made Chen fall into despair.
"Mr. Qian also confessed that before the old man passed away, you had the idea of medicinal materials in the house."
"When the old lady passed away, the ginseng slices in his mouth were fake. Chen Pinghui, Chen Pinghui, the old lady was not kind to you when he was alive. How dare you treat him like this?"
As soon as the old lady said this, Shen Zhiheng, Shen Zhao and his wife, and Shen Zhishu and his wife were all shocked.
If this matter involves the death of the old man, it will be a big deal to the Shen family.
Shen Zhiheng stared at Mr. Chen angrily, but he could endure anything else. But if Chen was related to the old man's death, he would never spare her.
Chen's lowered eyes were full of panic, but when he heard the old lady's last words, the panic turned into resentment.
The hands under the sleeves unconsciously clenched into fists.
Looking up and meeting the old lady's cold gaze, Mrs. Chen forced herself to calm down again. The more times like this, the less you can panic.
Being greedy for money is not a big deal. But if he killed the old man, the guilt would be huge.
Chen thought about it and made a decision in his heart.
"Mother is very clear. This is indeed my fault. I am to blame for my father's death. It has been a heavy burden on my heart for so many years."
"But please mother, please give your daughter-in-law a chance to argue. This matter is not what you think."
