At this moment, Shen Man's wrist felt more and more sore, extending all the way to his fingertips. He mentioned Miao Sili without hesitation.
But seeing that Shen Miaozhu was still not satisfied and refused to give her the antidote, he quickened his pace and said that when the house was searched, he helped open the secret cabinet of the Qiangong bed, and he was too nervous and pulled too hard, so that the seal stone inside jumped out.
Shen Lingzhu pressed on, "Second Grandfather and the others were there at the time. Did you take it away in front of them?"
"No, but when I closed the secret cabinet and was about to lock it, Miao Sili pulled me to open another box, and the secret cabinet was not locked.
When the officers were noisily moving several boxes and crates out of the room, my second uncle and my father both stepped forward to stop them.
Miao Sili took advantage of the chaos to grab the seal stone and gave me one. I…” Shen Man hesitated at the time, but Miao Sili said, “Chicken blood stone is worth a fortune,” and he accepted it for some unknown reason.
Huang Zongqi stepped forward and grabbed his collar: "You want it if I give it to you?"
Shen Man remained silent. He couldn't say that he was greedy for a moment.
"Uncle Shi, do you know if the other seal stone clerk Miao Sili has made any move?
Did he ask someone to redeem the seal with his aunt's name on it?" Shen Lingzhu knew why he accepted it without having to think about it. A man who would even take away the money for his niece's injured leg treatment would find it difficult to control himself when faced with greater temptation.
Shen Man hesitated for a moment, and Huang Zongqi tightened his collar. He closed his eyes and said, "I didn't pay much attention.
However, the shop that Wusao rented out was closed down shortly afterwards."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lingzhu and her senior sister looked at each other. It seemed that someone wanted to tamper with the ownership of the shop.
Fortunately, my uncle moved the bed as soon as he got home and discovered that the seal stone was missing early, and my aunt also took timely measures to remedy the situation.
Otherwise, by the end of the year when we look for a tenant, the shop might no longer be under my aunt's name. The world is so dangerous!
"Uncle, let him go." Shen Miaozhu handed over the "antidote" and said, "Chew it a few times before eating it."
Shen Man exerted all his strength to push Huang Zongqi away, snatched the "antidote" and swallowed it instantly. His movements were agile and not as weak as before.
The consequence of him ignoring the advice and swallowing it directly was that it got stuck in his throat and he couldn't go down, even though Huang Zongqi patted him on the back.
Shen Lingzhu was speechless.
In the end, it was Shen Miaozhu who took action and used the Heimlich maneuver to make him spit out the "antidote".
When he saw Shen Lingzhu kicking the dirt to cover the medicine, he rushed over and said, "Little Zhu, don't kick the antidote away."
"That's just a piece of candied fruit candy. You've studied for more than ten years and you can even tell the difference between medicine and candy." Huang Zongqi grabbed him and pressed him to the back of the car.
But Shen Man didn't believe it and said that they deliberately destroyed his hand. He pushed the people away and rushed towards Shen Lingzhu.
Of course, he couldn't beat Huang Zongqi, but his desperate struggle and yelling attracted the attention of passers-by.
"Uncle Shi! Your hand is fine. I just pricked your acupuncture point, and the effect has passed now.
If you don't believe me, try shaking hands yourself." Shen Miaozhu said frankly.
"Numb point?" Shen Man couldn't break free from the force control. When Huang Zongqi really pressed him to sit down, he could hear some of the words and subconsciously turned his right hand. Indeed, the feeling of soreness and swelling was no longer there.
Shen Lingzhu helplessly took out a small paper bag of fructose from her bag and gave it to him: "Take a look, try it."
As she spoke, she pinched one out and ate it. Shen Man saw that she had swallowed the same antidote as before, and suddenly snatched the paper bag and poured the candy into his mouth.
"What are you doing? Sugar is expensive." Huang Zongqi quickly snatched it away and felt sad to see the sugar falling into the soil. What a waste.
When he bent down to pick it up, the sugar residue that Shen Man had chewed and spit out sprayed on him.
"Shen Man, you did it on purpose." Huang Zongqi threw the paper bag to Shen Lingzhu, turned around, grabbed Shen Man and punched him.
The latter, without the poisoned elbow, dared to fight back, even if he couldn't win, he would still fight back: "I did it on purpose? I'm not allowed to be angry after being fooled by you guys?"
His punches were nothing to Huang Zongqi. With just one backhand, he subdued him, twisted one of his hands, and pressed it against the car floor. "I really want to cripple one of your hands. I'll grant your wish now."
"Wow... I want to go home." Shen Man felt extremely aggrieved and started crying while lying on the car, which scared Huang Zongqi so much that he went to check if he had sprained his ankle.
Shen Lingzhu was stunned by this situation. "His ability to withstand pressure is too poor. He was threatened once."
Shen Miaozhu stepped forward: "Uncle Shi, are you sure you want passersby to hear you crying?
Are you not going to take the county exam again and pass it, and are you not going to find a good marriage?"
These two questions were very effective. Shen Man stopped crying immediately and only sobbed.
Looking at him from behind, he looked quite pitiful, but what he did was extremely abominable.
Shen Lingzhu got on the driveway and said, "Grandma and Second Madam are in the capital right now. If you are really wronged, tell them later.
Look at how wronged you are, first you hid the seal stone, and then you helped outsiders to scheme against my family's business."
"Uncle, we have to go back to the city. We can't miss the appointment." Shen Miaozhu also got in the car.
Huang Zongqi kicked Shen Man and said, "Who can harm you? Sit up there or walk back alone."
Shen Man climbed onto the car and lay down without looking up. He took up most of the space by himself, leaving Shen Lingzhu and the other person with no room left.
The two sisters did not argue with him and ignored his crying, discussing how to get the seal back from Miao Sili.
Miao Sili, who was far away in Shun County, was looking at two other bloodstones in his duty room.
Originally, after getting the seal stone with his name on it, he would have opened an extra shop to sell it after some operations, but Mr. Shen took the initiative to remedy the situation, and now he can't get the shop.
He stared at the piece with his name engraved on it for a long time, muttering to himself, "I'm afraid I can't get the additional items, so now I can only sell it for its own value."
After saying that, he picked up a special file on the table and prepared to destroy the name on it.
Just as the knife was about to be placed on the seal stone, someone outside the door announced, "Master, Master Cai wishes to see you."
"Hasn't he left yet? Let him in." Just as Miao Sili finished speaking, he saw Cai Yuansheng coming in, with his hands tied with cloth and smelling of medicine.
Cai Yuansheng's voice was filled with tears as he spoke, "Brother-in-law, you have to save me. I left the city this morning, but before I had gone ten miles, I was beaten with a stick and my hands were hit.
I'll give you the blueprints. Find someone else to sell them in other counties."
Miao Sili asked, "Did you see who did this?"
"No, it's just that the Shen family is watching me.
Fortunately, although the blueprints were confiscated, there is still a copy at home." Cai Yuansheng said bitterly, "The Shen family must have hired someone to follow me.
Brother-in-law, this person must be found, otherwise my hand will really be crippled in the future."
Miao Sili always seemed easy to talk to, "I will check, but selling the pictures in other counties is something I cannot do without you.
I wouldn't feel at ease if I handed it over to someone else.
How about this, I hire a large carriage for you and pair it with two capable fighters?
"But……"
"No, but the two girls from the Shen family went to the capital to sell goods and haven't returned yet. If you were a few days later, they might have already visited all the nearby counties."
"No way?"
