Chapter 23 There is no airtight wall in the world
"But you are close to my mother, so it would be more appropriate to leave it to her for her to deal with." Shen Shuyi spoke again.
Hongying came back to her senses, crying and sobbing, her voice was sharp and excited: "No! No! Miss, if the lady knew, she would definitely kill me! Please have mercy on me, please save me!"
Hongying was really scared this time, and her whole body was shaking.
Even if she didn't take Shen Shuyi seriously in the past, now, on the one hand, she was caught in bed by Shen Shuyi and Master Huai Hai, and on the other hand, she had to bring up the issue of her Madam. Hongying had no choice but to be afraid.
Shen Shuyi lowered his eyes and looked at her without saying a word. Hongying raised her head and looked at the girl in front of her with tears on her face.
Under the moonlight, the girl was wearing a light blue dress, looking cold and aloof, like a fairy from the sky, making people dare not act recklessly.
"Miss, I really know I was wrong! I will definitely remember your kindness and will repay you by working like a slave for the rest of my life! Please leave me a way out! I beg you!"
As she spoke, Hongying kowtowed a few more times. Soon, her forehead became red and swollen, looking so pitiful.
After a while, Shen Shuyi sighed and said, "Well, I can keep it secret for you temporarily, but there is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. As for how long I can keep it secret, I have no way of guaranteeing."
Hongying swallowed her saliva, not caring about anything else, and cried with joy, "Thank you, Miss! Thank you, Miss!"

It was already late at night when Shen Shuyi and Yuping returned to the room.
Yuping rarely asked anything and remained extremely silent.
Shen Shuyi watched her busying around and called her gently, "Stop busying yourself and take a rest."
"Yes." Yuping actually didn't know what she was busy with, but she just didn't want to make herself look so useless.
When Shen Shuyi called her, she stayed by the bed.
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Shuyi asked.
Yu Ping was silent for a while before she said softly, "I was wondering how people could be so bad."
She and Hongying had no grudges against each other. Hongying bullied her and the young lady several times, but they never cared about it. But in the end, she developed such vicious thoughts.
Yuping didn't dare to think about whether she would still have the courage to live in this world if she encountered something like that tonight.
Shen Shuyi smiled, his brows cold and cold: "It is precisely because we are so easy to talk to that some people think that bullying us does not require any price or cost."
Yu Ping was stunned, and then she heard Shen Shuyi say: "So, only if they know that if they want to get benefits from me, they must be prepared to leave their claws behind, will they behave themselves."
Yu Ping's mind was in turmoil. After a while, she said softly, "I'll remember this."

On the other hand, Zhiyuan was expelled from the Buddhist temple. Fortunately, the monk allowed him to pack up and leave out of consideration for the friendship between them.
When Zhiyuan returned to his room, the first thing he did was to look for the silver he had hidden.
But when he opened the cabinet, not only the silver, but also some of his private collection of jewelry and jade had disappeared, the entire box was empty!
Zhiyuan's face turned pale, he stood up suddenly and pulled out the box.
But no matter how he turned several drawers and cabinets upside down, he couldn't find a single penny!
What about money?
Where's his money!
At this moment, Zhiyuan finally panicked.
That money was his last resort, how could it disappear out of thin air?
Zhiyuan's throat tightened, his heart beat rapidly, and he quickly searched other corners of the house.
But no…still no!
Zhiyuan fell to the ground with a thud, cold sweat oozing out of his head and his eyes were bloodshot.
The happiness not long ago has turned into palpitations due to these series of twists and turns.
who is it?
A thief must have stolen his silver!
But unfortunately, Zhiyuan couldn't make it public, let alone go looking for her in a big way.
Is it Hongying?
Or the cook?
Or someone else?
Zhiyuan racked his brains to think about it, but no matter what he did, he couldn't figure it out.
He sat beside the bed in a daze until dawn. In just one night, he looked much more haggard.
Zhiyuan repeatedly comforted himself that he was not penniless, at least he still had a hundred taels hidden in the tree stump outside.
Zhiyuan only regretted that he didn't deposit his money in a bank. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but his image as a monk was too high-profile.
Once you deposit so much money, you will definitely be targeted by someone with ulterior motives.
Furthermore, he always felt that he would only feel at ease if the money remained in his own hands, something he could see and touch every day.
Unexpectedly...
"Zhiyuan, you must leave before dawn." The cold voice of the monk came from outside the door. Zhiyuan came back to his senses, with red eyes.
"I understand, senior brother." Zhiyuan said in a deep voice.

After a good night's sleep, Shen Shuyi woke up a little late.
Yu Ping saw her wake up, brought a bundle in, and said cautiously: "Miss, someone threw this into my room last night."
Shen Shuyi raised his eyebrows. It was a somewhat dirty coarse cloth bag, but looking at the way Yuping was holding it, it seemed heavy.
Shen Shuyi took it and opened it.
What comes into view is a pile of gold, silver and jade artifacts of varying quality, reflecting dazzling light.
For Shen Shuyi, who was used to seeing treasures, these were not considered good things, but if added together, they could be worth two or three hundred taels of silver.
Yu Ping gasped: "Where...where did this come from? Did it fall from the sky?"
Shen Shuyi chuckled: "It was thrown by the cook. It must be the ill-gotten gains that Zhiyuan has accumulated over the years."
"Go and find out the cook's whereabouts." Shen Shuyi said in a calm voice.
Half an hour later, Yuping came back and said, "Miss, the cook didn't come today. I heard that he asked someone to quit his job at the Buddhist temple and take his wife and daughter to see a doctor somewhere else."
It was not much different from what Shen Shuyi expected.
She had observed the cook yesterday and found that he had rough fingers and deep wrinkles on his face. It was obvious that he was a hardworking man.
But if a person who has been honest for decades suddenly changes his nature, it must be because something happened at home and he urgently needs money.
But he is a smart man. He threw these things over here, obviously because he is afraid of being held accountable and implicated later.
Therefore, he only left the silver, and threw all the objects that could easily leave traces to her to deal with. This not only avoided trouble, but also repaid her friendship.
"So what should we do with these things now?" Yuping asked.
Shen Shuyi curled her lips and asked, "Has Zhiyuan left?"
Yu Ping said, "Not yet. He bowed and said goodbye in the Buddhist temple in the front yard. Others don't know why he left, so he had to pretend."
Shen Shuyi waved to Yuping and whispered something in her ear.
Yuping curled the corners of her lips, nodded, turned around, picked up her bag and left.
After she left, Shen Shuyi sat down at the desk and started copying Buddhist scriptures. After all, she was about to return home, so she had to be prepared.
Unfortunately, she has no one to use now, otherwise, Zhi would have suffered a lot after leaving the Buddhist temple.
But there is no rush, there will be enough time after she returns home.
At this moment, in the front hall of the Buddhist temple.
Master Huaihai took Hongying's reputation into consideration and therefore did not make Zhiyuan's crime public.
Zhiyuan forced a smile on his face and said goodbye to a few fellow disciples with whom he had a good relationship before he was about to leave. When he turned around, he saw that in front of the monk who was recording the incense money there were more than a dozen gold and silver objects, which were sparkling and particularly dazzling.
Perhaps because they had not seen such a scene for a long time, many monks gathered around and whispered.
