What is there to say about Chapter 213?
Shen Jingan picked up the paper that fell to the ground and held it in his hand. The people next to him couldn't help but come over.
What caught my eye was a line of crooked words.
[From now on, I will smile at the spring breeze and be a long-lived immortal on earth]!
Not to mention beautiful, it's not even neat. Not to mention the handwriting is like chicken claws, even a beginner can't compare to it.
For a moment, everyone had different thoughts, and some people couldn't help but talk in a low voice.
"This is obviously a birthday greeting. Could it be that this Second Miss Shen is planning to write it on this painting?"
"But the handwriting is too bad. I guess she knows that her handwriting is not good enough for others, so she didn't mention it."
"If what the maid said is true, then isn't the Second Miss of the Shen family a person who seeks fame and reputation? It's really shameful to use other people's paintings and calligraphy to show off!"
"This birthday poem is suitable for this painting, but if a daughter of a noble Shangshu Mansion does such a thing, it is really a lack of moral character. How can she be compared with the eldest daughter of the Shen family?"
"..."
As people continued to talk, Shen Jingchuan's face became uglier.
After all, he never imagined that his most guilty daughter would do such a thing just to gain fame.
Old Madam Shen also looked embarrassed. After all, no matter what Shen Shuyi's motivation was, making such a joke at her birthday party really made the Shen family lose face!
Everyone's eyes fell on Shen Shuyi, and they all looked at him with some scrutiny.
When Shen Jingzhen and Lou Yulan looked at Shen Shuyi, they couldn't help but feel a little gloating, mixed with a hint of expectation.
However, Shen Jingzhen's gaze was not hidden so well, and Lou Yulan cleverly lowered her head to hide the thoughts in her eyes.
Pang Xinlian still had a gloomy and resentful look on her face, but she was paying special attention to this and showed a rare interest in it.
Zhao Baokun frowned and said in a deep voice: "You are a maid who is good at talking nonsense. How can you convince everyone with just your one-sided words?"
Yao Huiyan also said: "That's right. I believe in Sister Shuyi's character. Your calligraphy has an unknown origin. How can you use it to prove that this painting was not made by Sister Shuyi?"
Zhao Dehai looked at Shen Jingchuan who had a bad expression on his face, and sneered in his heart, but did not show it on his face at all.
"Uncle, I am not saying too much. This is really strange. Sister Yi's words shocked everyone. Why did this maid prepare this group of words as evidence at this time? Did she know that Sister Yi would be questioned?"
Zhao Dehai's words were quite sharp and he instantly pointed out the key point.
Lu Xing said quickly, "Every word I said is true! There is absolutely no falsehood! The reason why I have this word ball with me is because I know it is very important, and I am even more worried that the Second Miss will beat me up and drive me out of the house because of it, so I always carry it with me!"
Zhao Xueqing frowned and asked, "Do you have any other evidence?"
Lou Zhengtao said coldly at this time: "You people in Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion are so interesting. Why do you insist on forcing a maid to get other evidence? In my opinion, this matter is very simple. Just let Miss Shen show her skills in public!"
Just as Shen Shuyi was about to speak, a clear male voice sounded.
Gu Yunhe looked directly at Lou Zhengtao and said in a cold voice, "Lord Lou, you are wrong. The second young lady of the Shen family is the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, and she is not a prostitute in a brothel. How can you say that she should be displayed in public? If the second young lady can prove herself, what will Lord Lou do?"
Shen Shuyi turned his head to look at Gu Yunhe. The young man was wearing a dark black Shu brocade robe. The cuffs and lapels were sewn with green silk thread, and there was a dark tiger pattern sewn on the front with silver silk thread. It was neat and tidy. His hair was stood up with a golden crown, revealing a sunny and handsome face.
Lou Zhengtao hesitated for a long time and was speechless: "You...you are just making up stories! It's clear that the second young lady can prove her innocence if she takes action! Whether it's true or not, why bother with so much trouble?"
Noticing Shen Shuyi's gaze, Gu Yunhe smiled at her, revealing a row of white teeth, which made people feel like the scorching morning sun, hot and open.
Shen Shuyi also smiled back at him. She didn't expect that he would speak up for her after just meeting him once.
But when you think about the character of the Gu family, it doesn’t seem strange.
"I...I still have evidence..."
Just as the few people were arguing, a trembling voice sounded again. This voice was weak and obviously not as confident as Lu Xing's.
Everyone's eyes fell on the maid in front of them again. Qin Xuerong narrowed her eyes. She didn't expect Hongying to stand up at this time.
He then said, "Hongying, don't talk nonsense!"
Hongying immediately said, "I, Hongying... my aunt, Nanny Zhang, was beaten to death because of a mistake. When I was helping Nanny Zhang to collect her belongings, I found that in Nanny Zhang's hands... there were many words written by the Second Young Lady when she was in the Jade Buddha Temple."
Shen Jingchuan only felt that the maid in front of him looked familiar. He didn't have time to think about it and asked coldly, "Where is the thing?"
"In...in the servant's room!"
Hongying spoke tremblingly, and then Shen Jingchuan sent someone to get it from the location she mentioned.
Qin Xuerong was very happy when she saw this scene, and felt that it was really God's help.
She really didn't expect that Hongying still had evidence in her hands and would even come forward to testify.
Not long after, the maid came back, took out a stack of papers from the place designated by Hongying, and handed it to Shen Jingchuan.
Shen Jingchuan looked at the crooked words on it, which were all from Buddhist scriptures. He became furious and threw the paper towards Shen Shuyi.
"What else do you have to say!"
Shen Shuyi looked directly at Shen Jingchuan with her almond-shaped eyes. After a long silence, she slowly said, "I said that I copied the Buddhist scripture myself, and I drew this picture of my grandmother myself. Father, don't you believe me?"
Shen Jingchuan sneered, "The evidence is solid now. These papers are all from Buddhist temples. Your maid has come out to testify against you. How can I believe it?"
Shen Shuyi's almond-shaped eyes were clear, and she smiled self-deprecatingly: "So, father would rather listen to the one-sided words of the two maids than believe me?"
Shen Jingchuan put his hands behind his back, his handsome and elegant face was tense and his eyes were terrifying.
Shen Shuyi said again: "Over the years, I have copied Buddhist scriptures for my grandmother many times and sent back many letters. Could it be that my father has never received them?"
Shen Jingchuan frowned and asked coldly: "What did you receive?"
Shen Shuyi looked slightly stunned, as if a little surprised and even a little lost.
Shen Jingzhen immediately spoke up: "Jingzhen has always respected Second Sister. Now I just want to ask, were the Buddhist scriptures and this painting made by Second Sister? If so, Second Sister is truly talented and knowledgeable, and we will naturally admire her. But if she is a fraud, Jingzhen will not accept it."
After Shen Jingzhen finished speaking, Xiao Tingshan on the side also looked at Shen Shuyi calmly to see how she would react.
It turns out that such a masterpiece is actually a fraud. I wonder what kind of exquisite woman can have such a clever mind?
Shen Shuyi smiled and said in a deep voice: "Although Shuyi has a wrist disease, it is not impossible to write. Since you have doubts, Shuyi will explain it to you."
