Chapter 75 Learn to be naughty

Shangguan Ruoli lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Since the guards were changed, the mansion is very safe. Maybe there is a thief in the Wutong Courtyard. Why don't brother Xiaohan suggest searching the Wutong Courtyard first..."

Qu Xiaohan's eyes lit up and he smiled fondly, "You, you have learned to be naughty!"

Xiao Yunqing has been in charge of the family for so many years, so there must be a lot of things going on in the Wutong Courtyard. Searching the Wutong Courtyard first will definitely swallow your words.

Qu Xiaohan stood up to say goodbye and went to Wutong Courtyard. According to what Shangguan Ruoli said, Xiao Yunqing immediately found a step to come down.

If the secret cell is discovered, she will die without a burial place.

Xiao Yunqing was so angry that she was shaking all over. After breakfast, she wanted to take the money to send Liu'er out to do some work, but she found that the money and some jewelry were missing.

Knowing something was wrong, I opened the secret compartment under the bed and found that all my savings and the medicine box were gone. I was so angry that I almost fainted.

So, she wanted to make a big fuss about the matter and let Shangguan Tianxiao see the consequences of letting those two bitches be housekeepers. However, Qu Xiaohan made her swallow her teeth with just one word.

Xiao Yunqing sat on the chair with red eyes, wondering in her mind who did it. Suddenly her expression became serious, and she rushed into the deaf-mute woman's room regardless of the broad daylight, turned on the mechanism and entered the secret cell.

I opened the darkroom where Xiao Fei was imprisoned and opened the fire certificate. I saw that there was no rotting corpse as expected, and only four iron hoops were left on the stone wall.

Xiao Fei was rescued, the antidote was stolen, it was over!

Xiao Yunqing leaned against the stone wall slumped, her body slowly slid down, and she sat on the cold and wet ground, shivering in despair.

After a long time, Xiao Yunqing regained her sense, stood up holding on to the stone wall, and walked out of the dark cell step by step.

The servants were a little surprised and confused when they saw Xiao Yunqing rushing into the deaf-mute woman's room and coming out with a pale face after a long time. However, Xiao Yunqing, the people in Wutong Courtyard, had all been saved. She was still one of her own, and no one dared to

No one dared to ask.

Liu'er was slightly startled when she saw Xiao Yunqing like this, but stepped forward to support her and comforted her softly: "Madam, don't worry. If you run out of money, you can save it again. As long as everything is fine."

Xiao Yunqing narrowed her eyes and said solemnly: "Go out of the house and do something for me. Be careful not to be stared at."

Liu'er hurriedly said: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely take care of it!"

Xiao Yunqing whispered a few words in her ear, Liu'er nodded solemnly, then packed up and left the house.

Xiao Yunqing also tidied up, changed into plain clothes, took off her gorgeous hairpin, and only put on a simple bun with a simple silver hairpin.

Then he knelt down at the entrance of the main courtyard and waited for Shangguan Tianxiao to come back.

The summer noon sun shone on her body, beads of sweat trickled down her body, and her clothes were wet and dry with sweat, and then dried and wet again.

Shangguan Ruoxian smiled slightly after hearing this, knowing that Xiao Yunqing was trying to retreat in order to advance, playing the emotional card, and making things worse. He ordered people to watch, and Shangguan Tianxiao came back to inform her, and then he did what he should do.

At noon in the afternoon, the shade of the trees turned around, and Shangguan Ruoxian and Shangguan Zhao also left.

Shangguan Ruoxian knelt behind Xiao Yunqing and muttered: "Is mother stupid? Father is so busy and will definitely come back very late. What's the use of kneeling here so early?"

Shangguan Zhao also said: "Yes, if father loves us, he can kneel down anytime. If he doesn't care about us, he can kneel for three days and three nights."

"Shut up!" Xiao Yunqing shouted, knowing that someone was watching around her.

What's more, Shangguan Tianxiao is not stupid.

In the past, when Shangguan Ruoli was autistic and ignored him, he saw that Shangguan Ruoli was well fed and well clothed, so he had no suspicion. But now it was different. He had become suspicious and sent people to investigate some things.

As a soldier with no background, he fought his way to the position of general of the country with one sword and one shot. How could he be fooled so easily?

The three of them knelt until the second watch was over, and were secretly worried that Shangguan Tianxiao would come back while he was staying at the military camp at night.

Seeing Xiao Yunqing and his wife kneeling at the entrance of the main courtyard, they were not very surprised. Apparently, the servants had already reported to him as soon as they entered the house.

"What are you doing?" His voice was calm, with no hint of emotion or anger.

Xiao Yunqing kowtowed unsteadily: "Master, atone for my sins! I am incompetent and lax in my command, which has repeatedly led to disasters."

She hadn't eaten or drank for most of the day, and she had been in the sun for so long. It was true that she was pale and weak.

Shangguan Ruoxian supported Xiao Yunqing, who was about to faint, and cried softly: "Father, my mother discovered that Wutong Courtyard was stolen this morning. A lot of silver notes and jewelry were lost."

Xiao Yunqing cried: "That's the income from my sister's dowry business over the years and some precious jewelry and jades. I was originally making a dowry for Ruoli, but who knew... wuwu..."

Shangguan Tianxiao frowned slightly, looked at them thoughtfully, and asked: "Do you think you have found out who the culprit is?"

Shangguanzhao said angrily: "It was my good cousin who committed the heinous crime of betraying the master by bloodbathing Meixiangyuan. After escaping, he brought people back to steal Wutongyuan. He was familiar with the terrain of the mansion, and he succeeded easily! "

Shangguan Ruoxian cried: "My mother is too kind. She pitied him and trusted him, but she ended up like this!"

Xiao Yunqing leaned on Shangguan Ruoxian cooperatively and wept silently.

Xiao Yunqing sobbed: "Money is a trivial matter. Those things are all my sister's thoughts. Although I have used some things for my children and various houses over the years, everything I left behind is my sister's." My beloved thing, I, I didn’t fulfill my sister’s dying wish, I will die without mercy! Wuwuwu..."

Shangguan Ruoli, who was eavesdropping in the distance, felt as if he had shot himself in the foot. This Xiao Yunqing had really become a spirit!

"Mother! It's all us who have caused trouble for you. Father, my eldest brother is away at war all year round. You support this family alone. If we were more capable, you wouldn't touch your aunt's dowry when encountering difficulties... Wuwu..." Shangguan Ruoxian hugged Xiao Yunqing and burst into tears.

Shangguan Tianxiao's eyes softened a little. Yes, it would be good if he could stay at home for three months every year. It is indeed not easy for a woman from the Xiao family to support the huge general's mansion.

Although there are many shortcomings, after working hard for so many years to give birth to children for him, there is no credit but hard work.

At this time, Shangguan Ruoli came slowly, supporting Rejoice, and said quietly: "I just asked my mother to hand over the real dowry list yesterday, and framed the old and fake dowry list and hung it on the bedside. Today, I asked my mother to hand over the real dowry list. Such a thing is really a coincidence."

"Li'er, it's such a dark night, why are you here?" Shangguan Tianxiao hurriedly reached out to help Shangguan Ruoli.

The expressions of Xiao Yunqing and the other three people all darkened.

Shangguan Ruoli laughed at himself and said: "My daughter is blind, and there is no difference between day and night. Otherwise, the mother would not have given her daughter a fake dowry list. If Aunt Su hadn't seen it, her daughter would still have been kept in the dark. "

Xiao Yunqing's face turned pale, and she kowtowed while crying: "I know I was wrong. I was just afraid that the master would find out that I had touched my sister's things and blame me. I was confused for a moment and did such a stupid thing. Please punish me!"
