Chapter 236 What’s so great?

Nanny Wang looked at the eldest young master of the Qin family in astonishment, seeming a little confused.

Even Shen Shuyi couldn't help but praise it when he saw this. The lie told by the Qin family basically formed a closed loop.

As long as Shen Jingchuan investigates more slowly, or the Qin family moves faster, most of the loopholes can be covered up.

Unfortunately, both himself and the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion came prepared.

"My dear son-in-law, this matter is very strange. Xuerong has been in charge of the ex-madam's dowry for many years and nothing has gone wrong. How come such a thing happened just before the old lady's birthday banquet?" Old Madam Qin spoke slowly. Although she did not point directly at the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion, the implication was particularly obvious.

Madam Zhao was not in a hurry. She just said, "Although there is no evidence for what Nanny Wang said, it is not difficult to investigate. Let's start from Duobao Pavilion."

Just as he finished speaking, the men sent by Shen Jingchuan came back and whispered, "Master, the shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion has been invited."

After that, a man in his forties, wearing a brown brocade robe, was invited into the hall in a somewhat reserved manner.

Shen Jingchuan said in a deep voice: "I asked the shopkeeper to come here today because I want to ask where these two pieces of jewelry came from?"

After saying that, Shen Jingchuan asked someone to hand over Lou Yulan's hairpin and bracelet to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took only one look and said anxiously, "Your Excellency, three days ago, someone from the pawnshop came to me and offered me a batch of valuable jewelry and head ornaments. Because the quantity was large and the price was not outrageous, and they were indeed rare and good things on the market, I gritted my teeth and took them all."

“These two are two of them.”

Shen Jingchuan said in a deep voice: "You mean, the people from the pawn shop asked you to sell them? And there are more than just these two?"

"Yes, in total there are about ..."

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, Shen Jingchuan raised his hand to stop him. He looked coldly at Nanny Wang who was kneeling on the ground and said in a deep voice, "How many pieces of jewelry did you take privately?"

Nanny Wang's heart tightened, and she tried hard to figure out how much Shen Jinglin had taken away that day.

But that day, Shen Jinglin's servant kept stopping her, so she didn't see clearly at all. What's more, later, he even moved a whole box.

I wanted to go back and count them, but because the number was too large and I was worried about being discovered, I didn't have time to count them carefully.

Being asked by Shen Jingchuan, Nanny Wang felt a little guilty. She swallowed her saliva and stammered, "Probably... probably... probably more than twenty pieces."

Shen Jingchuan looked at the shopkeeper again, and the shopkeeper immediately said, "There are more than 30 pieces in total, and each one is a top-quality product."

Shen Jingchuan's expression became uglier and uglier, and he said in a deep voice: "Could you please tell me which pawnshop it was pawned from?"

As soon as these words came out, Madam Qin took the lead and said, "How could the other party come here to sell such sneaky things so blatantly? I'm afraid my son-in-law won't be able to get anything out of him."

Obviously, Madam Qin wanted to shut the shopkeeper's mouth, but unfortunately, she failed to succeed this time.

The shopkeeper immediately said, "The old lady misunderstood. The other party sold too many things at once, and I was afraid of getting into trouble and not being able to explain clearly, so I deliberately asked about the origins."

"The other party is the owner of Dongxiang Pawnshop, who is familiar to me. It is said that he got this batch of goods and divided it among three parties, and I was only one of them."

Shen Jingchuan said in a deep voice: "You mean, your family alone has more than 30 pieces?"

The shopkeeper immediately said, "That's right. Maybe I am familiar with the owner of that pawnshop, so I took a little more. But the other two shops will have at least more than 20 pieces."

"Oh, so, wouldn't our De Jong's dowry jewelry be emptied out?" Old Master Zhao sneered, unable to suppress his anger.

"Did the other party tell us the origin of these things?" Shen Jingchuan was a little embarrassed.

The shopkeeper said again, "I asked about it at the time, and the boss just told me not to worry, saying that he met a young master from an aristocratic family who was not interested in worldly things. He might have stolen things from his family to sell, and he had no idea of ​​the price, so he made quite a profit."

"Young Master?" Old Madam Shen's brows were twisted.

"Yes, sir, you can send someone to Dongxiang Pawnshop to ask them. The owner has all the necessary documents and there is nothing illegal. I'm sure he will tell you everything he knows."

Shen Jingchuan lowered his eyes and glanced at Shen Jinglin who was kneeling on the ground. His face was ashen, as if he had guessed something. He squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Send someone to invite the pawnshop owner over."

Shen Jinglin lowered his head tightly, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

Shen Jingchuan's gaze and tone were so terrifying that he couldn't remain calm at all.

But...aren’t they just some dowry jewelry?

It's just there, what's the big deal!

At this moment, Qin Xuerong also realized something when she heard the words "Whose young master?". Her eyes fell on Shen Jinglin and she wanted to say something but stopped herself several times.

Shen Jingchuan didn't look at his son again, but said to Nanny Wang: "Nanny Wang, you have been in the mansion for many years. If you know something, you'd better tell me the truth."

Nanny Wang's face became a little stiff and looked gray.

She knew that this matter could no longer be concealed...

She knew from the beginning that these lies would not stand up to scrutiny. Although the Qin family was powerful, the Qingyuan Marquisate was no pushover.

What's more, facts are facts.

How could the young master act so arrogantly without leaving any evidence?

Shen Jingchuan said again: "Madam, you should know that there is no impenetrable wall in this world. The truth will come out sooner or later. Of course, the consequences of your confession and what I have found out will be absolutely different."

For a moment, Nanny Wang was silent and trembling.

She could ignore herself, but her son was still in the Qin Mansion...

Seeing that she still had no intention of speaking, Shen Jingchuan also lost his patience. He looked at Shen Jinglin and said slowly, "Brother Lin, what do you think?"

Shen Jinglin was startled when his name was suddenly called.

Looking up into Shen Jingchuan's eyes, his heart tightened and he subconsciously said, "I pawned that thing!"

As soon as these words came out, Qin Xuerong almost fainted on the spot.

Shen Jingchuan was so angry that he laughed, his hands trembling slightly: "Good! Good! What a wicked creature!"

Shen Jinglin knew he couldn't escape. After all, the pawnshop owner had seen him before. So he decided to give up and said, "It's just a few pieces of jewelry! What's the big deal? Besides, those were supposed to be given to my second sister. Why is my mother hoarding them?"

"If those things were in my second sister's hands, she wouldn't be reluctant to spend them on me. Now I'm just borrowing them in advance!"

Shen Jinglin spoke with confidence, and Qin Xuerong was furious. She never thought that all her thoughts would turn out to be an ungrateful person.

"You! You...you bastard!" Qin Xuerong spoke tremblingly, her face pale.
