Chapter 51 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
Qin Xuerong's eyes darkened and she felt very upset.
Although she had never met Zhiyuan, she had heard Nanny Zhang mention him several times. She thought that the matter of being expelled from the Buddhist temple was over, but she didn't expect that Shen Shuyi had the ability to find him.
Shen Shuyi looked at Old Madam Shen and said gently, "In addition, Grandmother can also send people to search for Nanny Zhang's belongings and money. Nanny Zhang's monthly salary is fixed. We can always make a judgment as long as we search carefully to see if she has embezzled the master's property."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Zhang became even more anxious, and felt that Shen Shuyi's intentions were truly vicious!
It makes no sense for servants like them, who are well-received by their masters, to not accept tributes. However, most of these things cannot be seen in public, and she has not been at home during this period of time and has not made any preparations. It can be said that as long as they are searched, there will definitely be problems.
Qin Xuerong's expression was not good either, and she said in a deep voice: "Sister Yi, Aunt Zhang has been with me for many years, so there may be some misunderstandings about this matter."
Shen Shuyi looked at Qin Xuerong and said in a gentle voice, "What mother said is true. It's just that because Aunt Zhang has been with mother for many years, this matter should be investigated thoroughly. If it wasn't done by Aunt Zhang, then Aunt Zhang should be cleared of all charges. If it was done by Aunt Zhang, then she deceived her superiors and subordinates and used mother's name to seek personal gain. She should be severely punished to serve as a warning to others!"
The words were spoken neither humbly nor arrogantly, and he knew when to advance and when to retreat.
She was neither aggressive nor without bottom line. Old Madam Sun beside her could not help but nodded, and her daughter-in-law, Madam Sun, could not help but look at Shen Shuyi again.
Old Madam Shen's face turned pale, and she obviously didn't expect that such a shameful thing would happen.
He embezzled the expenses of the legitimate daughter, and the legitimate daughter of the Shangshu family had to wear patched old clothes. How shameful!
"Sister Yi is right. In my opinion, there is no need to make such a fuss. Sister Yi has been in the temple for four years. We can find out how she spends her food, clothing and other expenses by sending someone to the Jade Buddha Temple."
After saying this, Old Madam Shen's eyes fell on Aunt Zhang and she said sternly, "Aunt Zhang, considering that you are an elder in the mansion, I will give you one more chance. Tell me! Have you embezzled or withheld Sister Yi's food, clothing and other expenses in the past few years?"
Second Housewife Zhang said bluntly, "Yes, Aunt Zhang, you have to think it through before you speak. If you speak clearly now, maybe the old lady will give you a lighter sentence because of your years of hard work. But if you don't speak now, and she finds out later, you will have no choice but to die!"
Nanny Zhang's mouth was dry and her throat was tight. She subconsciously looked at Qin Xuerong, obviously very scared.
She never thought that she would end up like this today. She returned to the Shen Mansion as she wished, but not only did she not see Shen Shuyi being punished, but she was the first to be liquidated!
"mother……"
Qin Xuerong tried to say something, but before she could open her mouth, she was interrupted by Old Madam Shen: "I'm asking her!"
After all, the old lady has been in charge of the family for many years, and her influence is still there.
As soon as these words came out, Nanny Zhang knew there was no turning back.
That’s right, this matter cannot be concealed. Shen Shuyi has already blocked all her escape routes. The more she investigates, the more serious the situation will become!
"Madam! I was blinded by greed. Please forgive me for my years of loyalty. I know my crime. I know my crime! I am ashamed of the Second Young Lady. I was wrong!"
Nanny Zhang cried and struggled for a long time. She felt that it was just as Zhang said. It would not take long to investigate the matter and the Madam would not be able to clean up the mess for her. Only if she admitted it now would she have a chance to survive.
Moreover, she could only take the blame on herself, otherwise Qin Xuerong would not let her family go!
Shen Shuyi said calmly, "Madam Zhang, you are not ashamed of me, but of mother's trust. Mother has always been kind. If you act like this now, it will only make mother bear the reputation of being harsh to the legitimate daughter. What should I do if it affects the future of my elder sister and elder brother?"
Qin Xuerong was so angry that she could only yell, "Madam Zhang! You are so bold! I trusted you for so many years, and this is how you act!"
"It was my fault, Madam! I know I was wrong, Madam, please spare my life for all my years of dedication!"
Nanny Zhang was completely frightened and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Hongying was stunned. She was afraid that she would be implicated and dared not make a sound.
Madam Shen said sullenly, "Come here, drag him away and give him fifty lashes, and expel him from the Shen Mansion!"
Upon hearing this, Nanny Zhang collapsed to the ground instantly.
Fifty lashes!
Fifty lashes of the cane may seem like mercy, but it would only cost her life. At her current age, she would not be able to withstand even twenty lashes of the cane, let alone fifty!
Although she pushed Nanny Zhang to take the blame, she had been with her for many years. Qin Xuerong couldn't bear it and looked at Old Madam Shen with tears in her eyes: "Mother, she has served me for many years and she is very dedicated..."
"Just because you do your best, you can take advantage of the power of others and deceive your superiors and subordinates? Sister-in-law, if everyone manages the family like you, it will be a mess." Zhang said with a smile, with a bit of sarcasm.
Qin Xuerong's face turned pale and the handkerchief in her hand was clenched into a ball.
Good, what a great Shen Shuyi!
As soon as I came back, I gave her a warning!
Old Madam Shen looked at Qin Xuerong deeply, and for the sake of the children, she didn't say much, but just said, "Why don't you delay it!"
"Madam! Madam, save me!"
"Second Miss, Second Miss, please spare my life. I know I was wrong!"
Nanny Zhang first looked at Qin Xuerong, and then went to grab Shen Shuyi who was closest to her.
Shen Shuyi just looked at her coldly, his deep eyes revealing a bit of cruelty and coldness, which made Aunt Zhang feel cold all over.
Then, two servants came forward and dragged Nanny Zhang away. Soon, shrill screams were heard in the yard.
"Madam! Madam! Save this slave!"
Qin Xuerong lowered her eyes, feeling very upset and angry.
Madam Shen said in a deep voice: "The monthly salary and rewards given to servants in the mansion are very generous. You should take what you should take, and you should not take what you should not take. Today, Madam Zhang is an example. If you do it again in the future, you will be beaten to death!"
The sound of beatings, accompanied by shrill pleas for mercy and wails, came one after another.
After a while, the sound gradually weakened and turned into intermittent moans.
Nanny Zhang didn't dare to expose Qin Xuerong. She just kept crying and shouting until the end: "Madam...I am loyal to you...I am really loyal!"
The heart-wrenching pain spread underneath my body, and then became numb.
Nanny Zhang's consciousness became increasingly blurred, until now, when she finally began to regret.
She couldn't help but wonder if she had not offended Shen Shuyi at the Jade Buddha Temple, she would not have ended up like this.
If she had not pushed her to the point of desperation when she withheld her monthly salary, would she have a chance of survival today?
If she had not stood up for Hongying, she would not have died so miserably.
Nanny Zhang had never thought before that the day she had been longing to return home would actually be the day of her death!
After a while, there was no sound outside the door at all.
A servant hurried in and reported in a low voice: "Madam, when the thirty-second stroke of the board was coming, Aunt Zhang... passed away!"
