“Don’t worry.” She said softly, “Second Sister-in-law has always been very capable. She won’t let anything go wrong.”
“I hope so.” Shen Gui nodded.
As the two of them were talking, they suddenly saw Shiqing run in with a flustered expression. “Madam, Second Madam is back with the three ladies.”
Seeing Shiqing’s expression, Chen Ruoqiu was relieved and knew that the matter was probably settled. She smiled and looked at Shen Gui, then asked Shiqing with a concerned expression, “Are the three ladies alright? Do they look tired?”
“No, no,” the poet stammered. “First Miss has gone crazy.”
Chen Ruoqiu suddenly stopped smiling.
… .
Everything was like a dream. In just a day, the Shen family was in a mess.
Shen Qing went crazy.
Ren Wanyun usually had the aura of a manager of the house. Although she always had a smile on her face, everyone could tell how ruthless she was. The Shen family had never had any problems with her as the manager over the years. Her managing ability was also recognized by everyone.
However, this was the first time this noble woman, who was always smiling, looked tired and crazy in front of the servants. If not for the fact that she was accompanied by maids, people would probably think that she was a crazy woman who had come out of nowhere. The girl in her arms was really crazy. She kept screaming and struggling, and the commotion even alarmed Old Madam Shen.
First daughter of the Shen family had gone crazy, but no one knew how and why. The Shen family was very wary of this matter. Those maids who saw Shen Qing going crazy were all sold. But most likely they were buried in the middle of nowhere.
The two girls beside Shen Qing, the two girls beside Shen Yue, and even Nanny Gui were locked up.
As a result, Shen Miao was the only one who was unharmed.
In Rongjing Hall.
Old Madam Shen sat on the seat, her face tense. She stared at Shen Miao, who was standing in the middle, looking like a poisonous snake.
The one who should’ve been in trouble wasn’t in trouble but the one who shouldn’t have been in trouble was in trouble. At the thought of this, Old Madam Shen was so angry that she felt like a rock was stuck in her chest.
Chen Ruoqiu and Shen Wan stood at the side. Shen Yue stood beside Chen Ruoqiu aggrievedly. Her two personal maids had been locked up for no reason. She had heard from Shen Miao that it would probably be very difficult to protect Huang Ying and Qing Luan.
On the other side, Ren Wanyun was kneeling in front of Old Madam Shen. Shen Wan had something on in the imperial court today and had not returned to the mansion yet. The servant who was sent to ask him to come back had not returned yet, so he naturally did not know that something had happened to his daughter.
“Old Madam, you have to help Qing.” Ren Wanyun was crying so hard that even Shen Wan was a little surprised because Ren Wanyun had always been arrogant and proud.
Ren Wanyun always abused her power as the manager of the house. Now that her daughter was in trouble, she was still lying on the ground like a dog. Seeing that, Chen Ruoqiu felt delighted.
“Shen Miao, I treat you like my own daughter. Qing also treats you very well. You two are sisters of the same bloodline. How can you be so vicious? Do you know that Qing’s life has been ruined by you? You are so heartless!”
Shen Yue told Chen Ruoqiu and Shen Wan about Shen Qing being humiliated by someone. All the servants were asked to leave, so Chen Ruoqiu was not afraid of being heard.
Just as Shen Miao was about to speak, she suddenly heard an angry shout from behind her. “Evil girl, you harmed your sister. Your heart is like a snake and scorpion. You deserve to be sent to jail. You deserve to die!”
Shen Miao smiled coldly and turned around to face the man who was striding over.
Her second uncle, Shen Qing’s father, Shen Gui.
