Chapter 154: The dowry is lost
"Butler, what are you looking for?" At this time, Jiang Yu happened to see the housekeeper coming with the group of subordinates, so he spoke up, attracting the attention of the housekeeper, and as soon as he saw Jiang Yu, he immediately stepped forward.
"Alas, my eldest lady, now the house is tossed away, and they are all looking for you, hurry up and follow me to see the master, wait a while, be careful to talk, the master is probably angry." The housekeeper is one of the few people in this mansion who is willing to talk more to Jiang Yu, and Jiang Yu will naturally treat her better, so after nodding, he followed the housekeeper to Lanyue Pavilion.
At this time, the lights in the Lanyue Pavilion were bright, and many family members were holding torches and looking straight at Jiang Yu, while Jiang Congwen was standing in the middle and glaring at Jiang Yu with anger on his face.
After listening to Jiang Yu's question, Jiang Congwen and Jiang Wan did not step forward to explain.
After a stalemate like this for a long time, Jiang Yan jumped out from outside and said to Jiang Yu, "It's not that the second sister said that she wanted to come over to see the eldest sister, in the middle of the night, I didn't say that I couldn't find my sister, so I went to find my father, worried that you would go out to find someone to tryst." ”
Since she was kicked out by Jiang Wan last time, Jiang Yan has become an even more disgusted Jiang Wan.
The confrontation between Jiang Wan and Jiang Yu like this is what she likes to watch the most, what she wants is for the two of them to fight to the death, and then he will be the only one who will profit.
"Father is so excited, is he coming to me?" Jiang Yu took the three maids directly into the gate of Lanyue Pavilion, looked at Jiang Congwen and asked.
The housekeeper who had just brought Jiang Yu over was in a hurry.
When she just came over, the eldest lady should still talk well, be careful or something, why do you talk to the master like this as soon as you come back?
"You're not in your boudoir this big night, where have you been?" Jiang Congwen's brows furrowed, Jiang Yu's words just now did make her a little angry, but she had been used to it for so long.
This white-eyed wolf has always been at odds with himself, and it's just a matter of being filial on the surface, and today he must be taught a good lesson!
"Naturally, I went to the garden to pick some flower dew and came back, waiting for tomorrow to make tea, why does my father even care about this? We don't seem to have a curfew yet. Jiang Yu glanced at Jiang Wan with a smile, "It's my sister, come to me at night and find that I'm not there, right?" In the middle of the night, you didn't have anything to do here, but you disturbed my father, this toss, look, none of them slept well. ”
Jiang Wan didn't expect that Jiang Yu would lead the topic to herself, and she was a little speechless when she was caught off guard, and those subordinates got up from the warm quilt, naturally they were also a little annoyed.
Now that she heard it again, Jiang Yu said that it was because Jiang Wan didn't see her here, so she immediately ran to inform the master, and then she moved the crowd, and she was suddenly a little dissatisfied.
Sure enough, Jiang Congwen's face was also a little unpleasant, just now he was still holding the beauty in Wang Lin'er's house, and was about to fall asleep.
"Since there's nothing to do, don't run around at night in the future." This breath can't go up or down, Jiang Congwen has no other way, he can only throw his sleeves and leave directly, this angry back, looking at Jiang Wan's heart is a little cold, I always feel that this time I have done something wrong, but fortunately, I have already got the dowry, and the others are not a big deal.
After all, he won't be able to stay in this mansion for long, and when he gets married, he will have nothing to do with it.
After making a plan in her heart, Jiang Wan also glared at Jiang Yu, and went back to their respective courtyards.
"These two young ladies are really day by day, and they don't have anything to do, but they are so idle that they are panicked, and they are always looking for the stubble of the young lady, and I don't know why." Qingping rarely complained, she really didn't look down on Jiang Wan's behavior, in the past, it would be good if she was safe.
The partial thing is to toss so many moths out of it, which makes people panic.
"Whatever she does, let's go back to sleep first."
As soon as he pushed the door open, Lime was the first to frown, and there was still a little smell of incense in the air, which was smoke......
"Miss, it seems that the second miss came prepared, someone in this house has been drugged, but now it has dispersed, I guess I came here with an unsightly mind, and found that we were not there, and then this alarmed the master." Lime snorted coldly, she had already figured out this kind of ninth-rate method.
"Huh...... When I get up tomorrow, I will go to count the dowry in the treasury, and I guess I still come for those. ”
has been fighting with Wang Rubi's mother and daughter for so many years, and I have a general understanding of their mentality and trends, to put it bluntly, it is not a sharp word, but I just look at myself weaker, and there is no backstage to support, and I still have a huge treasure.
This became original sin.
Jiang Yu shook her head and smiled and went to sleep, and when it was early the next morning, the lime came back.
Jiang Yu was dressing up, and her long hair was slowly falling down in front of the bronze mirror.
"Miss, as you expected, two boxes of dowry in the treasury were lost, but I am afraid that it will be taken away by the second miss."
Jiang Yu nodded, "Just in case, I'll go to Jiang Wan's house tonight." ”
She is not like Jiang Wan, she impulsively did the things that were decided casually, what Jiang Yu wanted was that the things were definitely in Jiang Wan's yard.
Thinking about this, Jiang Wan is really stupid, after her mother died, she was helpless, and she made any stupid moves.
In the evening, Lime changed into her nocturnal clothes and hurried to Jiang Wan's yard.
This has just got two new boxes of dowry, Jiang Wan is naturally very rare, she opened it in the room and looked at it one by one, looking at the things inside, her heart was extremely shocked.
In the past, I only heard that the dowry in Jiang Yu's box was particularly precious, and it was also placed in the big warehouse in the house on weekdays, and only her mother could go to see it, and she just went to Jiang Yu's house that day and glanced at it at random.
But in her opinion, Jiang Yu does have a lot of good things in her hands, and these two boxes are enough for her to make a dowry, but there are more than a dozen boxes in Jiang Yu's house.
When Lime came back in the evening, Jiang Yu knew what was going on, and she thought that she and the three maids went out that night, which allowed Jiang Wan to get it.
This night, Jiang Wan tossed and turned in the house and couldn't sleep, thinking that just the dowry of the two compartments was so precious, and Jiang Yu's treasury stored so many dowries, if she could really take it......
The more I thought about it, the more enthusiastic I became, as if I was addicted.
Early in the morning of the second day, Jiang Yu went to find Jiang Congwen.
Before arriving at the study, I saw Jiang Congwen wearing court clothes and had just come back.
"Father, two boxes of dowry left by my mother were lost." Jiang Yu said straight to the point, "I didn't find it lost when I checked it the day before, and when I went to see it today, I lost it." I think it must have been that night, when I took the girl out to pick flower dew, someone stole it. ”
Jiang Congwen glanced at him coldly, "Then you will look everywhere, is it useful to come to me?" ”
Jiang Yu followed Jiang Congwen into the study, Jiang Congwen originally wanted to let Jiang Yu out, but he never said to Jiang Yu: "These two boxes are not the same as the others, there are the most precious South China Sea King Pearls in them, and there are only three in the world." ”
"What?" Jiang Yu's mother's dowry has such a royal pearl, he naturally knows it, and he has wanted it for a long time, but it has always been placed in the treasury, so he defaulted to it as his own, and now it is taken back by Jiang Yu, and he can't give up his face to ask for it, but now it is lost, it must be made by people in the house.
"I know that my father has wanted this South China Sea King Pearl for a long time, if my father wants it, he can take it away, but the rest has to be returned to me......" Jiang Yu's words were not finished.
saw Jiang Congwen get up and look at her with an angry face, and scolded: "Could it be that you still suspect that I swallowed your two boxes of dowry?" ”
Jiang Yu naturally shook her head, but the look on her face didn't mean that, but looked at Jiang Congwen with some hesitation, "I naturally didn't mean that, but my father, those things are extremely precious to me, and my mother only left such a little thought, if my father wants the South China Sea Wang Zhu, he will ask me for it directly, and he will not say no to it as a daughter, but when you look for me that day, father, you are in my yard, and those subordinates dare not do it......"
"Enough! What nonsense are you talking about? I will naturally ask people to find these things for you, although the South China Sea King Pearl is precious, but your father and I are not the kind of people with shallow eyelids. Jiang Congwen was suddenly angry by what Jiang Yu said, so he suspected that Jiang Congwen took her dowry.
Although Jiang Congwen has always wanted to receive that batch of dowries into his private treasury, this matter is indeed not done by him, and it is terrible to be wronged in vain.
"By the way, there are marks on my mother's dowry, and I remember that when the An family brought these dowries to my mother, there would be a shallow word under everything."
Jiang Congwen nodded Don't let Jiang Yu leave, and when it was past noon, he summoned all the people in the whole house to the main hall.
"Why did Father gather all the people today?" Jiang Wan was a little anxious in her heart, her things were still in the house, and if someone went in, they would be able to see it.
Jiang Congwen brought his family over, and these were all people he trusted.
"Go and search all their houses, and if you find something, bring it out."
Hearing Jiang Congwen's words, Jiang Wan's heart was shocked, and her eyes widened involuntarily.
Jiang Wan's flustered appearance was seen by Jiang Yu and chuckled.
The waiting time was always long, and after about half an hour, the family came with boxes in their hands.
"Master, these two boxes were searched from the yard of the second lady, and this box belongs to the fourth aunt."
