Chapter 25 The Theft of the Wu Mansion

The candle flame has been lit, illuminating the entire study, and the study is also divided into two rooms, inside and outside.

Master Wu's study was in a mess, the books on the bookcase were scattered on the ground, the inkstone paper and pen on the desk were messy, and in the room, all the drawers were opened, and it was obvious that they had been turned over, Hanyu eagerly walked into the inner room, and a group followed her in, and everyone speculated about what valuable items were stolen.

In the inner room, Hanyu hurriedly came to a relatively hidden cabinet, everyone saw that the lock on the cabinet had been pried off, and the damaged copper lock fell to the ground, Su Ying supported Hanyu, Wang Chuan found from the side that Miss Hanyu had lost her face, and there was a fear in her eyes, only to see Hanyu walk to the cabinet in person, open the cabinet, everyone's eyes focused on it, Hanyu's hand seemed to tremble, tremblingly opened the cabinet, it was empty, she didn't believe it and tried to reach in and touch it, still no......

Hanyu's delicate body trembled slightly, everyone's hearts were gloomy, and the atmosphere was a little dull, Wang Chuan sighed secretly, he quietly pushed Su Ying on the side with his hand, and glanced at Su Ying, Su Ying was clever and intelligent, and immediately understood, so he stepped forward to support Hanyu and shouted: "Miss." ”

Hanyu was in a panic, and when he heard Su Ying's call in his ears, he immediately woke up in his heart, no longer panicked, but quietly closed the cabinet, turned to everyone, and said calmly: "The thief is hateful, he stole a famous painting of great value, but there is no reason to recover it at this moment." From today on, the internal affairs deacon will send more men in the house, and they will take turns to inspect the house every day to prevent thieves, in addition, no one is allowed to leave the house at will without permission, and the deacons will report the affairs of the house to Su Ying and Granny Zhang every day, and you two will pick up important matters and report them to me. ”

"Yes, miss. Su Ying and Granny Zhang responded.

Hanyu said again, "Mother Wang, now that Dong Lao is gone, you, as my nurse, are in charge of the chores in the house. ”

"Yes, miss. "This Wang's mother is wearing heavy makeup, her face is covered with a thick layer of fat powder, and her lips are redder than the monkey's buttocks.

Mother Wang smiled and took the errand.

Hanyu looked at her and frowned, but finally didn't say anything, after thinking about it, she explained a few words to Ying'er, this matter, only Ying'er can do to reassure her.

"Yes, miss. Ying'er understood the meaning and responded.

"Ying'er, then you take the lock, hold the key, order someone to clean up this place, lock the door, take strict care, and don't allow strangers to come here in the future. Hanyu commanded.

"Yes, miss. "Su Ying is the head.

After Hanyu ordered these things, her mood calmed down a little, but in her eyebrows, there was a faint lingering anxiety, something made her very uneasy, Wang Chuan hunted with his eyes, and he saw it clearly.

Seeing out of the window in a blink of an eye, it was already night, and Hanyu realized that it was late at night, but everyone gathered here because of this incident, so he said: "Leave the staff on duty, and the others will go back to the room to rest." ”

As she spoke, she walked out of the study, and a group of maids surrounded her back, and some housekeepers followed the lantern escort.

Wang Chuan had to go back to the house alone, and said on the way: There must be important objects stolen in the study, and the loss of the painting is just a cover-up, not to mention, there will be theft tonight, and Dong Lao'er's departure from the house for no reason is probably related.

Wang Chuan returned to his other courtyard, under the starry curtain, on the stone table, there were remnants of side dishes and sake, still lying there quietly, but Wang Chuan had lost the interest in drinking.
