C51 Do You Think She's a Fool
Did he really think Yem Sheng was a fool with his words?
"You are still pretending to be crazy and pretending to be stupid with me? It would be a pity if you don't go and act." Yem Sheng sneered.
Meifang chuckled, "Miss Yem is really overpraising me. I really don't understand what you are saying."
Beside Yem Sheng's reclining chair was a small tea table with a set of tea set with the pattern of a koi fish on it. Before Meifang came, she was making tea. Now, in such a short time of talking, the tea that was brewed had already cooled down.
Yem Sheng's eyes faintly swept over.
A servant standing beside her immediately grabbed a teacup and threw it on the ground. It landed right under Meifang's feet. The sound of the cup hitting the ground was loud and clear. The teacup with the pattern of a koi fish instantly broke into several pieces, just like when Meifang ordered people to smash Yem Sheng's gourd bottle that day. The beautiful scene of the porcelain pieces blooming on the ground with flowers.
Meifang's fat body quivered with a crisp sound as if she was startled.
"Let me ask you again. Do you know why I called you over?"
Meifang still stuck her neck out and refused to admit it. "I really did not."
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by the sound of the teacup shattering. Huala, huala, two porcelain flowers exploded under Meifang's feet.
Meifang immediately became flustered.
"Let me give you a piece of advice. After taking my things, it is better to return them obediently."
Meifang hurriedly cried, "Miss Yem, Miss Yem, you cannot be like this. There is no proof. How can you say that I took your things. The Yem family was such a big family, there were hundreds of people in it. Maybe it was someone else who had dirty hands and feet. Miss Yem, why did you have to come here alone? "
After she finished speaking, there were still two drops of tears on her face as she trembled.
This hypocritical expression made Yem Sheng feel nauseous just by looking at it. She really did not expect that even an inconspicuous servant in Yem family would have such a face. Sure enough, she was someone who could mix under Sheng Guilan's hands.
However, she would rather die than admit it.
Yem Sheng's gaze fell on Meifang thoughtfully as if she was considering how to deal with Meifang.
Meifang seized the opportunity and hurriedly cried out her endless grievance. "Miss Yem, it was indeed because of Madam Yan's order back then. It was not my heart that I would do those things to you. You can't blame me for what happened in the past. I really didn't steal anything from you. The people around me can testify for me. These few days, when Miss Yem wasn't around, I was busy handling other household chores. I didn't have time to steal anything from Miss Yem's house. Such a big hat came over. I was really wronged. "
The few maids beside Meifang? Heh, they were all on the same side as Meifang to vent their anger. How could they possibly tell the truth?
Sheng Guilan leaving the matter to Yem Sheng to handle was actually also clearly to make Yem Sheng feel embarrassed. After all, she did not have any authority in the Yem family. Such a matter... Without any dignity and without Sheng Guilan stepping out, Meifang was not willing to admit that she had stolen the item. How could Yem Sheng be successful in finding the lost item?
Previously Sheng Guilan must have thought of this situation and that was why she agreed to let Yem Sheng handle this matter so easily.
"That is to say, the things in my room were not stolen by you?"
Meifang did not expect Yem Sheng to suddenly say this. She originally thought that Yem Sheng would definitely question harshly. It was just questioning. As long as she beat him to death, she would not admit this matter. Yem Sheng did not have anyone to back her up. In the end, this matter would definitely be left unsettled. But Yem Sheng suddenly asked such a pleasant question which made Meifang feel puzzled. " That's right, Miss Yem, I don't have time to come over here. If you don't believe me, you can go and investigate."
Yem family's security measures were very strict. Usually, it was night time. There were guards on duty at the entrance of the corridor, and there were also surveillance videos. If she could pull out this surveillance video, Meifang would be speechless even if she did not admit it. Unfortunately, Yem Sheng found out that the surveillance videos for the past few days had been cut off by someone.
It seemed that there was someone behind Yem Sheng's back who did not wish for her to do so.
"But what if I had to say that my things were stolen by you?" Yem Sheng lazily sat on the reclining chair and practiced with the breeze, even though the current scene did not make her feel comfortable. However, such a scene could not help but make her feel refreshed.
"Miss Yem, aren't you joking with me? There is no evidence."
Yem Sheng's eyes suddenly opened, "Evidence? There was no need. It was enough to deal with people like you. Call the guards over there and tell them that I have caught a thief. Ask them to help me send him to the police station."
The smile on her face was faint and very beautiful, but in Meifang's eyes, this smile was like a devil, making people tremble in fear.
Meifang panicked when she heard the police station, "Miss Yem, how can you treat me like this? What kind of place is the police station? I am already old, how can I go to that kind of place. Even if I really didn't steal anything, if I go in and come out, people will still talk about me. Miss Yem, if you are really dissatisfied with me, if you want to beat me up or scold me, then come at me as soon as possible."
The maid standing by the side heard Yem Sheng's words and nodded her head. She turned around and prepared to leave but was stopped by Meifang anxiously.
"What is it? You want to admit it yourself?" Yem Sheng looked up at her.
Meifang bit her lower lip and shook her head before looking at Yem Sheng. "Miss Yem, I know that there are many things that I did wrong in the past. But... Can you give me a chance? I, I really didn't take anything from you."
Yem Sheng thought for a while and then said," If you are really innocent, then good. Don't you have a pile of teacup fragments in front of you? Kneel down and crawl in front of me. I will think about it. I will not send you to the police station. "
Meifang immediately jumped up and looked troubled, "Miss Yem, you are not joking with me right? This is a porcelain piece. Once I kneel down, my knee will be ruined."
" I remember that there was a gourd bottle of the Qing Dynasty in my room in the past. It was also broken by your people. Although it is not an expensive antique, with your ability, if you want to compensate, I'm afraid you'll have to pay me back in your next life. Whether you do it or not is up to you. I'm a very easy person to talk to. What you don't want to do... I will definitely not force you"
Wind and water take turns. Yem Sheng suddenly became a noble young lady from that lowly person. Meifang did not understand. In just a few days, why did she change so much?
Previously Sheng Guilan was still the same as Yem Sheng who treated her as an enemy. This time Yem Sheng went back to Yem family in a high-profile manner. Why did Yem Yongcheng's family become mute?
