My elder sister stole my marriage? She regretted and cried after I married the general.
Chapter 221: Fire in Cloth Shop
Feng He's heart skipped a beat and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in her heart.
She jumped up almost immediately and rushed out: "General, Madam, I'll go take a look."
Shen Lin frowned in displeasure: "Who is so rude to disturb us so late at night?"
"If there is any official business, General, just go and do it." Although Ye Qinghuan was also disturbed, he was in a good mood.
If someone knocks on the door so urgently in the middle of the night while you are staying up all night on New Year's Eve, it is most likely important official business.
"General, Madam, there's a fire in the cloth shop." Feng He hurried back with a grim look on his face.
"Our cloth shop?"
"Yes."
----
A fire broke out during New Year's Day, and half of the people on the street came out to see.
When Ye Qinghuan and Shen Lin arrived, the fire had been almost put out.
Linglong Cloth Shop, which had stood for nearly twenty years, has been reduced to ruins.
Four guys whose clothes were burned and blackened by smoke sat on the ground crying.
Seeing Ye Qinghuan coming, they all knelt down to apologize: "Madam, we stayed up all night to guard the shop, and we don't know who set the fire. Our cloth shop was burned down like this."
The government was also alarmed, and the person who came was an old acquaintance - Lord Liu.
"General Shen, Madam Shen!"
"Someone deliberately set the fire. Please investigate it carefully, Lord Liu." Shen Lin's face was grim and he was very unhappy.
"Don't worry, General. We will get to the bottom of this matter."
For example, Mammy wiped the servants' faces with handkerchiefs and asked for details.
With the assistance of the government, Lao Xu took several servants from the general's mansion to count the losses.
The more I count, the sadder I feel.
"Madam, the fire broke out in the warehouse and the workshop at the same time. It was very urgent, everything was burned!" Lao Xu was so anxious that he burst into tears.
Ye Qinghuan was already mentally prepared, and he suppressed his anger and said calmly: "Are there only four of them on duty tonight?"
"Yes. The other guys have gone home for the New Year holiday."
"It's the best that no one was hurt. Arrange accommodation for them, and provide them with clean clothes and food. Give them some money and let them go home for the holiday. They can come back to work after the Lantern Festival." Ye Qinghuan said.
The onlookers all admired Ye Qinghuan's magnanimity.
After such a big incident, not only did they not hold anyone accountable, they also treated their guys well!
"But Madam, we have lost all the design drawings and equipment!" Lao Xu's heart was broken. "I have been guarding the cloth shop for you for your whole life, and it is destroyed just like that."
"It doesn't matter, we'll start over again after the New Year." Ye Qinghuan said.
Lao Xu still finds it hard to accept the reality.
Ru Ma Ma came over and said coldly, "See how useless you are? Madam is young and knows the importance of things. Why are you crying?"
"Madame Ru..."
"It's New Year's Day, don't cry! Wipe your tears!" Nanny Ru yelled angrily.
Old Xu was shocked and wiped his tears with his sleeves.
Shen Lin watched the whole scene with Lord Liu, and came over and said, "Madam, it's cold at night, you and Nanny Xu Shuru go back home first. Leave this to me."
"No need to investigate, General, come back with us! I know who did it." Ye Qinghuan sneered.
She cut off one of Shen Rong's arms, and Shen Rong burned down her cloth shop in revenge.
He really never forgets to take revenge!
Fortunately, she had a lot of assets, so burning down a cloth shop wouldn't cause any serious damage.
"I know that too, but we have to check it out." A murderous look flashed in Shen Lin's eyes.
This was the first time he officially wanted to kill Shen Rong!
Ye Qinghuan noticed this and stopped insisting: "Well, thank you, General. I will wait for you to have dinner tomorrow morning."
"it is good."
Ye Qinghuan got in the car and left.
Shen Lin gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, turned around and looked towards the southeast - the direction of the general's mansion.
Shen Rong, you have exhausted my last bit of patience!
----
In the dead of night, the General's Mansion
Old Madam Shen was in a bad mood. Halfway through the New Year's Eve party, she felt so sleepy that she went to bed.
Shen Rong and Bai Zhi stayed up all night to celebrate the New Year.
Shen Rong remained silent, his face gloomy. No matter how Bai Zhi teased him, he was always limp, like an eggplant hit by frost.
It was not until he heard that the fire at Linglong Cloth Shop had burned down completely that his eyes regained their spirit.
"Burned? It's really burned, hahaha..."
He suddenly burst into excited laughter, which scared Bai Zhi.
She grabbed her collar, anxiously: "Third Master..."
"He destroyed my pearl farm, so he deserves to lose his cloth shop!" Shen Rong said viciously, "After the New Year, the Shen family army will continue to be short of military rations. Without the cloth shop to make money, I wonder what Shen Lin will do! That's a Shen family army of 100,000! I wonder how he will support them!"
"Third Young Master, you didn't do this, did you?" Bai Zhi asked in a trembling voice.
Shen Rong neither admitted nor denied it.
Bai Zhi's scalp suddenly went numb: It's over, I'm in trouble again!
"Third Young Master, how could you do such a thing? Ye Qinghuan is not someone who can be easily bullied. She will definitely get to the bottom of this matter..."
"This time, I didn't leave any traces, so they can't find it. Even if they do, it wasn't me." Shen Rong smiled strangely.
Bai Zhi felt more and more horrified.
It’s the same old trick. Someone has been found to take the blame in advance, but can this only be hidden from Ye Qinghuan?
"Zhi'er, this Spring Festival is finally a little happy. Let's go back and have a rest." Shen Rong was in a good mood.
Bai Zhi wanted to say something but stopped herself, and finally pushed him back to Qingyun Courtyard.
As soon as I entered the yard, I was suddenly struck by murderous intent.
Bai Zhi was knocked to the ground by a powerful force.
When she got up, Shen Lin was already fighting with Shen Rong with a sword.
The hidden weapons on the wheelchair were fired one by one, and swords flashed and shadowed.
It was the first time that Bai Zhi saw two masters fighting right under her nose, each of whom was trying to kill the other. She was so frightened that she didn't know what to do.
Retribution comes so quickly, will Shen Lin really kill Shen Rong?
Oh my god, no!
Bai Zhi quickly got up and wanted to go to Fushouyuan to find Old Madam Shen to suppress Shen Lin.
However, a sword was held against his neck.
"Watch the show here and don't go anywhere, and don't scream."
It’s Fenghe.
Bai Zhi shrank her neck and dared not move.
She could only watch the fight scene nervously, hoping that Shen Rong would win.
She remembered that Shen Rong was very strong and could fight against a hundred people even in a wheelchair.
but……
Shen Lin is stronger!
The two of them exchanged less than twenty moves before they had used up all the hidden weapons in Shen Rong's wheelchair.
And because of his inconvenient legs and feet, he gradually fell into a disadvantage.
Finally, Shen Lin pointed a sword at his heart and asked, "Did you do this?"
"What is second brother saying? I don't understand." Shen Rong wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and pretended to be confused.
"Stop pretending. I know you'll burn it if I don't. You're taking revenge on us for destroying your pearl farm." Shen Lin said sternly.
Shen Rong laughed softly: "Since Second Brother knows everything, why are you still asking?"
"Shen Rong, I really want to kill you."
"Then go ahead!"
Shen Rong was not afraid at all.
Since childhood, Shen Lin had always given in to him. No matter how he provoked her, Shen Lin would never really hurt him.
This time, too.
Shen Lin, his steps have been controlled by his family since he was born. That's why he is so fearless!
"Shen Rong, you are so bad."
Shen Lin's sword pushed forward, cutting through the clothes bit by bit and pressing against Shen Rong's skin.
The cold iron slowly pierced into Shen Rong, and he finally couldn't laugh anymore.
"Second brother, do you really want to kill me?"
Shen Lin said nothing, and continued to move forward with the sword in his hand. Although the movement was slow, there was no pause.
Bai Zhi is about to scream!
But she was more afraid of death, so she could only cover her mouth tightly.
"Brother, you will hurt mother's heart by doing this. Mother will never forgive you."
"I don't need anyone's forgiveness anymore."
Shen Lin's eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.
Shen Rong was horrified to find that his second brother had really changed and really wanted to kill him!
The tip of the sword pierced his flesh, blood gushed out. Shen Rong finally raised his hand to hold the sword, stopping him from moving forward.
"Brother, I'm your younger brother!"
Shen Lin said nothing, and his men continued to exert force.
Shen Rong could only block it, his palm was cut by the sword and blood gushed out.
Even when he was almost exhausted, Shen Lin still showed no sign of stopping.
He finally admitted his mistake and said, "Brother, I didn't set the fire. If it wasn't me, you should investigate it carefully. Don't do anything that you will regret."
"Shen Rong, stop quibbling." Shen Lin said, "No matter who it is, it was you who instructed it. Your legs and feet are intact, and everyone understands. If you want to set the fire, of course you can only find someone."
"Second brother, it really wasn't me. Ye Qinghuan has so many enemies, you must have a lot of people who are suspicious..."
Shen Rong was anxious and kept talking to delay time.
Finally, Lord Liu hurried over to report: "General Shen, the murderer has been caught."
"Who is it?" Bai Zhi asked loudly.
Lord Liu looked embarrassed: "It's... Miss Zhou Niannian."
