Chapter 69: Big Trouble! (Part 1)
Jiang Chengfeng walked quickly while asking the little maid what happened. The little maid cried and choked for a long time, and Jiang Chengfeng finally understood.
It turned out that this morning, Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen Eldest convened all the managers of the Shen Mansion to discuss matters, but Miss Shen Second broke in halfway and argued with Mrs. Shen. Mrs. Shen was furious and wanted to beat Miss Shen Second with a stick.
"Isn't it just breaking into the meeting room? Do you still have to be beaten for that?" Jiang Chengfeng was speechless. Who made this rule?
Later, the maid explained that this rule was set when Mr. Shen was alive. If an unrelated person trespassed into the meeting room, he would be beaten with a stick. This maid was the maid of the second Miss Shen, who asked her to ask Jiang Chengfeng for help.
Jiang Chengfeng didn't expect that the little girl would trust him so much. As for the Shen family rules, he was unhappy with the Shen family, so he naturally didn't care! How long has Mr. Shen been dead? He is still following these broken rules?
Halfway through the journey, Jiang Chengfeng ran into Young Master Zhao again. Before Jiang Chengfeng could speak, the anxious Young Master Zhao pulled Jiang Chengfeng to the front yard, saying that he was going to rescue his cousin.
The two of them trotted all the way to the front yard of the Shen Mansion. The meeting room was on the west side of the front yard. Although it was not big, it was where .
At this time, in the huge meeting room, more than a dozen stewards sat in two rows. Madam Shen's face flushed, and she glared at her little daughter. Shen Ruoyan knelt beside her mother, tears in her eyes, desperately pulling her mother, and Shen Qingdie also lay in the hall, her little face full of fear and humiliation. Next to Shen Qingdie, there was a fierce servant with his sleeves rolled up, and he was about to hit her with a board in his hand.
Jiang Chengfeng rushed in and shouted, "Stop!"
This loud shout immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the meeting room.
"Jiang Dazhu——"
Shen Qingdie screamed and struggled to get up, but was held down by the law enforcement servant next to her .
Soon, a steward stood up, glared at Jiang Chengfeng at the door, and shouted: "You little slave, is this also a place you can come to?"
"Who the hell do you think you are? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll kill you!" Jiang Chengfeng was in a bad mood and immediately retorted.
Being scolded by Jiang Chengfeng, the steward was so angry that his body trembled. He held it in for a long time and didn't say a word. Finally, he looked at Madam Shen, bowed his hands, and said, "Sister-in-law, I would like to ask, is this your servant in the Shen Mansion?"
Sister-in-law? Jiang Chengfeng was a little confused. Could it be that Mr. Shen had other children? Why had he heard of them before? Could they be cousins?
"Don't be angry, fourth brother!" Madam Shen tried to comfort him: "We are one, so why should we be different? Let me teach this ignorant servant a lesson!"
As she spoke, Madam Shen took a step forward, glared at Jiang Chengfeng, and shouted, "Jiang Dazhu, what do you want to do?"
"May I ask, Madam, what are you going to do now?" Jiang Chengfeng did not have the awareness of a servant at all. He also took a step forward and glared at Madam Shen.
"Qingdie trespassed into the meeting room. According to the Shen family rules, she should be caned fifty times! And you, you also trespassed into the meeting room, made a scene, and spoke wildly. You should be caned a hundred times!"
"Mother, please don't hit Jiang Dazhu! He broke into the meeting room because of me. If you want to punish someone, punish me!" Shen Qingdie broke free from the law enforcement servant and grabbed Mrs. Shen's sleeve.
Shen Ruoyan couldn't bear to see her sister being punished, so she asked to be punished instead of her sister.
Seeing that Shen Ruoyan was willing to be beaten a hundred times for her sister, Jiang Chengfeng couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
Both daughters were begging for mercy. Madam Shen's body was trembling slightly, and tears were rolling in her eyes. She took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Qingdie, as a member of the Shen family, you should abide by the Shen family rules. You did something wrong today, and you must be punished!"
After saying that, she ordered the law enforcement servants to drag Shen Qingdie and Jiang Chengfeng away and punish them with a cane.
Jiang Chengfeng sneered, waved his hand, and stopped the law enforcement servant, "Wait a minute!"
Mrs. Shen was puzzled, "What else do you have to say?"
Jiang Chengfeng smiled and said, "How can you hit the Second Miss? I took the punishment for her!"
"Jiang Dazhu , why are you so stupid!" Shen Qingdie burst into tears and begged her mother to let Jiang Chengfeng go, but was stopped by her sister.
Shen Ruoyan looked at Jiang Chengfeng gratefully. No matter what, Jiang Dazhu was still good to her sister. She had already made up her mind to make some compensation to Jiang Dazhu in the future.
Mrs. Shen was also a little surprised, but since there was this young man taking the blame for her daughter, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
So she ordered the law enforcement servants to beat Jiang Chengfeng with 150 strokes of the cane.
However, when the law enforcement servant was about to drag Jiang Chengfeng away, Jiang Chengfeng stopped him.
"Madam, if you want me to be beaten, it's not impossible!" Jiang Chengfeng sneered and raised his head and said, "But there must be a reason, right ? You wanted to beat the Second Miss just now, saying it was in accordance with the Shen family rules. May I ask who made this rule and when was it made?"
Madam Shen frowned, feeling unhappy, but still explained: "This rule was established when the old master was in charge of the Shen family!"
"So that's how it is!" Jiang Chengfeng suddenly grinned, "Rules can be set, and naturally they can be abolished! Why did the old man set this rule? Of course it was to punish some scoundrels, but the second young lady is working hard for the Shen family, how can she be a scoundrel?"
Mrs. Shen was stunned and speechless for a moment.
Originally, she had handed over all family affairs to her eldest daughter, but the matter to be discussed today was so important that she had to step in and temporarily preside over the meeting on behalf of her eldest daughter.
Now that this has happened, it is natural for her, as the convener of the meeting, to impose punishment.
Taking advantage of her mother's laxity, Shen Ruoyan also hurriedly persuaded her: "Mother, although Qingdie did something wrong, she did it for the sake of the Shen family. She did not make a mistake intentionally, so it is understandable! Moreover, she is also a member of the Shen family, so she naturally has the right to know everything about the Shen family!"
Madam Shen remained silent. Shen Ruoyan stood up and glanced at the many stewards present. "What do you think?"
Shen Ruoyan has been in charge of the Shen family business for many years and has accumulated power for a long time. Now she has regained the aura of the domineering female president in the past. Those guys who were shouting the loudest just now suddenly fell silent, hung their heads, and wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Shen Ruoyan snorted coldly, helped her sister up, and said softly: "Qingdie, you are also a member of the Shen family. You have the right to know the important decisions of the Shen family! Just sit next to me, I wonder who dares to object?"
Shen Qingdie responded in a low voice, stole a glance at Jiang Chengfeng, and suddenly remembered what Jiang Chengfeng had said before, and immediately shouted: "We can't cooperate with the Fang family!"
