Chapter 350: Chongxi Bride - Thief in the middle of the night
Immediately afterwards, the entire Hou Mansion became lively, and of course the family members were alarmed.
Dogs barked everywhere.
Then several servants who were carrying the goods were all arrested.
Bai Chen saw that someone had been arrested on the big tree, and of course he wanted to go and see the excitement and see what the Qin clan was going to do.
Early the next morning, another maid was shouting at the door, "Grandma, Madame, please go to the main courtyard quickly." ”
Bai Chen understood, and after a simple dressing, he marched towards the main courtyard, and the two maids trotted all the way to follow.
"Grandma, were you awakened last night? The Hou Mansion has been robbed. Qin Lan said as she ran.
"Really? How many thieves are there? ”
"There seem to be seven of them, all of them are domestic slaves of the Hou Mansion."
"House slave, this is really strange!"
"Grandma, do you think this is strange?
Just as the thieves were about to remove Mrs. Xian's things and leave, I don't know why, several thieves were actually injured at the same time.
It was so strange that all that was striking them was a few finger-sized pebbles.
It's as if the eldest prince is manifesting himself. ”
The more Qin Lan spoke, the more excited she became, and there was excitement on her little face, but she was pulled by Qin Shu's sleeve, "Okay, hurry up." ”
Bai Chen smiled and strode forward, today's play is definitely exciting enough.
In the hall of the main courtyard, all of the Qi family were present except for the two concubines.
The faces of Hou Ye and Qin were very ugly, Bai Chen greeted him in a proper manner, and then sat down.
The whole hall was silent, the needles could be heard, and the people had retreated.
Qin's eyes were blood-red, as if he had cried.
The three children of the Qi family still had an indifferent expression, their eyes did not squint, and their lips were pursed.
Qi Hou Ye closed his eyes slightly, very majestic, and didn't know what he was thinking.
After waiting for a while, the Qin family let out a long breath and opened the golden mouth, "Daughter-in-law, our family was robbed last night, do you know?" ”
Only then did Bai Chen raise his head and said in surprise: "Really a thief?" I heard Qinlan talk about it early in the morning, but her daughter-in-law didn't believe that the Hou Mansion would be robbed.
Where did those thieves come from? ”
"It's not." The Qin family helped his sideburns, looking very helpless, "What they stole was the dowry of the first lady."
Didn't her dowry go to you yesterday?
How many hours has it been? This happened.
You say, "Should you have an explanation for this?" ”
At the same time, the three children of the Qi family finally turned their gaze to Bai Chen's body, and their eyes were surprisingly consistent.
Eyeing the tiger, full of indignation.
How many of them, who doesn't know that the eldest brother is very rich? It can be described as being so rich, originally they thought that when the eldest brother died, his property and money should be distributed to them.
But their mother actually gave her eldest brother's things to a country woman who came from the horns.
She is the wife of the eldest brother on the surface, but in fact, the two have never even met, why did she take the eldest brother's property?
In the eyes of several children of the Qi family, the so-called sister-in-law is completely an outsider.
But isn't it a joke that such a person actually wants to pinch her eldest brother's property and money in her hands?
Who gave her that big face?
Anyway, they have 10,000 people who can't figure it out.
And Qi Houye never opened his eyes from beginning to end, as if he was asleep.
It looks a little tired, even a little lonely.
"It was the dowry of the first mother-in-law who stole it." Bai Chen was stunned, "Uncle Kang went to report to his daughter-in-law yesterday.
But when the daughter-in-law asked to count the dowry of the former mother-in-law, he pushed back, saying that he wanted to ask you before handing it over to his daughter-in-law. ”
"Humph! Is it? The Qin clan no longer had the kindness of the past, and when he looked at Bai Chen, his eyes were full of disgust.
I don't want to act anymore.
This matter must be planted on Ji Jiu's head, otherwise, it will not be able to justify itself.
The perfect image of himself who has been operating in the Hou Mansion for almost twenty years can't collapse because of this incident.
Even if the eldest prince is a god in the sky, she can't care about it.
Because, stealing the dowry of the first lady was either carried by Ji Jiu or by himself.
If you carry this matter, how will you gain a foothold in the Hou Mansion in the future? How do you convince the next generation?
She wants to see if she has planted this matter on Ji Jiujiu's head, what will happen to the eldest son? Will you always protect her?
Thinking of this, the corners of Qin's mouth hooked up with a vicious sneer, "It's really forceful, if something happens, you want to shirk responsibility." ”
At the same time, he also patted the coffee table vigorously and shook the tea out.
"It's not too quick to recruit from the truth."
"Mother-in-law, who are the people who stole the dowry of the first mother-in-law?
I heard that they have been arrested, so why don't you bring them up and ask. Bai Chen felt aggrieved, and tears were about to flow out, "If you don't understand this matter, your daughter-in-law is really wronged." ”
Several thieves are from the Qin family, and when she was awakened from a dream last night, she was also confused, but fortunately, Hou Ye was not in the house at that time.
That's why she quickly took control of the situation.
After the guards of the Hou Mansion caught a few thieves, they took them directly to the internal affairs hall of the Hou Mansion.
The Qin clan rushed there in a hurry, and when she saw that it was all hers, she was so angry that she almost fainted.
When she heard that the Hou Mansion was robbed, she still had a fluke mentality, thinking that these thieves were not the ones who were ordered to secretly move the dowry.
But it backfired, and it was really them.
This incident has already alarmed the entire Hou Mansion, and it is impossible for her to directly release these people.
Soon, as smart as she was, she immediately thought of another poisonous plan.
Then, she gave a harsh lecture to several 'thieves', and even memorized lines, and she had to blame Ji Jiujiu for this.
Several 'thieves' believed that the Qin clan had a way to save them, so they memorized their lines very obediently and kept reciting them until dawn.
As long as several people are in the same voice, they all say that they were coerced and lured by Ji Jiujiu, and they planned to remove the valuable dowry of the first wife and smuggle it back to their parents' house.
Then she will surely die.
Now, the gods in the sky can't help her, the Hou Mansion is good enough for her, it's her own shallow eyelids, who can blame her?
Could it be that the gods in the heavens have to go down to earth for the sake of a so-called wife who has never even met in person.
Early in the morning, when the Marquis of Qi came back from the palace, of course, the Qin clan recounted what happened from yesterday morning to midnight.
But later, she didn't tell the truth.
Instead, Xuan's daughter-in-law actually wanted to steal the dowry of the first lady and transport it back to her parents' house.
Qi Houye frowned, and only said lightly, please come over and ask.
In his opinion, Xuan's daughter-in-law could not have been so bold.
He actually thought about the dowry of the first wife, but as the head of the family, he was embarrassed to ask his eldest son for it.
Moreover, the Tan family has been dealing with the Qi family all these years, and he doesn't want to tell the truth.
So, I just thought about it, and I didn't act on it.
After the eldest son was gone, the Qin family quickly took over his estate, and he knew it, but he felt that it was as it should be.
Mrs. has broken her heart for her eldest son all these years, and completely treats him as her own son.
Now that he is gone, what he doesn't bring with him in life and what he doesn't bring with him in death has to be taken by the mother.
Although the staff of the Hou Mansion is simple, the expenses are actually not small.
The property of the Hou Mansion has not been well managed over the years, and the income is not as good as before, and there will be many places to spend money on the marriage of the three children and the career of the two sons in the future.
