Rui Xue knew about Liu Mian and Mr. Liu's theft, and all she knew was from her son Qingbai.

Qingbai is Xie Xianzhi's little house, but Xie Xianzhi rarely goes out now, and he has to run errands on weekdays, and it is enough to have the habitual green pine, and most of the time Qingbai is relatively idle. His parents are the stewards of the outer courtyard, and he often wanders around the outer courtyard on weekdays, and he is very familiar with Mr. Liu, and occasionally helps to go to the pharmacy to run errands or something. Mr. Liu went out today, he felt that this was an opportunity to go out and relax, so he simply went with him, and he personally experienced what Mr. Liu encountered along the way, and said to his parents when he came back, and he also thought it was very interesting.

Mr. Liu took a car to visit the lifter, and at first the road went smoothly until an alley close to the other party's residence, and then something changed. The alley is relatively spacious, there are many residents, and there are people who set up stalls on the roadside to do small businesses on weekdays, so it is quite prosperous, and there are many pedestrians and cars. When they reached the alley, they had to slow down, and they were halfway through when they were stopped by a crowd of people in front of them. It turned out that a group of young men quarreled with a weak middle-aged woman holding a child, the woman kept crying, and the young men were all scolding, as if some kind of bully bullying the weak. There were many onlookers, but they were just sitting on the wall and watching, pointing and pointing, and did not participate in it, so the scene froze there.

If the way was blocked not far from the entrance of the alley, Mr. Liu's carriage could have turned around and diverted, but now that it has reached the middle of the alley, it is too difficult to turn back, it is better to figure out what is happening ahead, disperse the crowd earlier, and let the carriage continue to move forward. Mr. Liu, as a staff member of the political envoy in Beiping, sat in the carriage of the political envoy's family, and was very confident in this kind of thing.

When he lifted the curtain of the car, he found that the weak woman in front of him was not a stranger, but a neighbor who had fallen in the middle of his house in the past, although he hadn't seen him for many years, his facial features had not changed much. As far as he knew, this neighbor was a weak woman, the most cowardly and fearful, and she loved to cry when she was in trouble, and she had no idea at all. When he was young, he was already afraid of being pestered by her and crying. Despite this, he couldn't sit idly by and watch her being bullied, so he got out of the car and stepped forward to ask what was going on, and by the way, he called a powerful and powerful long-term attendant sent to him by the Xie family, just in case, leaving Qingbai to sit in the wheel and watch the car.

When he asked the young men who looked like bullies, he realized that he had misunderstood the real situation.

In fact, it was the middle-aged weak woman whose family was poor, and her son, in order to earn money, conspired with others to deceive the young man—a group of idlers who made a living in the market, doing a little bit of everything, but also had no savings. The gang found out that they had been deceived, and when they asked where one of the crooks lived, they came to the door. Who knew that the main son ran away with all the money, leaving only a frail mother crying and a newly weaned son, it is said that even his wife ran away, let alone repay the money, and there is not even a person who can work hard to earn money to pay off debts, and the grandparents themselves do not know how to support themselves. They have to scold and scold here, just take a breath of idleness, and they can't really do anything with this pair of grandchildren. The onlookers listened for a long time, and they all knew what was going on, and they couldn't even say a word to help, so everyone could only stand by and watch.

Mr. Liu was embarrassed, but the woman had already recognized him, cried at him and begged him for help, his integrity did not allow him to throw his hands and leave, so he could only help the other party to intercede with the gang. But because the other party was too angry, and somehow misunderstood that he was going to help the pair of grandparents deny the cheating and refused to pay back the money, so the two sides clashed. Although Mr. Liu has a long-term escort by his side, the other party is also a large number of people, and no one can please him in the chaos. Seeing that the situation was not good, Qingbai hurriedly threw down the carriage and rushed up to help. Although there were some things in the carriage, none of them were as important as Mr. Liu, so he naturally knew the weight.

It was not until the two sides made their words clear in the confusion that Mr. Liu took over the debts of the grandparents and grandchildren, and repaid the defrauded money for their son, the matter was settled. The other party changed his previous aggressive attitude and became kind and cordial. Mr. Liu was also angry and funny, but he thought that it was only ten taels of silver, which was not a lot of money for him, and he could afford it completely, and he could ask an acquaintance from the Yamen of the Inspectorate to help find the woman's son and his accomplices, and recover the money that had been swindled, so he took this idle matter with peace of mind.

He also told the grandfather and grandson the address of his private house, and if they were really in trouble and could not survive, they could go to his house for help. He still has a family at home, so he can't help much, so it's no problem to provide two meals of coarse tea and light rice. The other party's grandson is too young, and he can't bear to see his acquaintances in trouble. The woman thanked him so much that she wept again.

Mr. Liu was scared when he saw it, so he hurriedly excused himself to get the money, and returned to the carriage with Chang Sui and Qingbai. The young man waited in the same place, taking care of the pair of grandchildren by the way, lest they run away and the money was not in hand. At this time, Mr. Liu and the others found that the carriage had been turned into a mess, and the brass hand stove, foot stove and a full set of high-quality white porcelain tea sets were missing, as well as several of Mr. Liu's belongings, including money bags and other items. disappeared together, as well as the wooden box containing the three girls of the Xie family and the third young master of the Wan family. The wooden box is very exquisite, there are carved patterns on the surface, and some shells, lapis lazuli or something, and the flowers and plants are painted with gold lacquer, which looks very rich and elegant, could it be that it was stolen by thieves as valuable things? !

Mr. Liu was angry and flustered, and Qingbai and Changsui also looked around to see if they could find any trace of the thief. A good Samaritan on the side of the road told them which narrow alley the thief had run to, and the long follower hurriedly chased after him, and sure enough, he caught a glimpse of a suspicious person who had just turned the corner and ran away quickly. He chased all the way, lost the chase halfway, and returned to the carriage in despair to report to Mr. Liu. At this time, Qingbai had already reported to the group of young men that the political envoy of the main family, Xie Bu
