After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

Chapter 140 All Gone



Chapter 140 All Gone

"Miss, please follow Madam's instructions. Don't get yourself hurt by getting angry again."

When Tourmaline saw that Wen Jinzhu looked very angry, she and Feicui looked at each other and hurried to comfort him.

"It's just a few more servants. They don't look very smart. I'll go over to visit them with some food and snacks later. I'll help Miss find out everything about them as soon as possible."

Feicui was also giving advice. Weren't those people in the eldest lady's yard taken down by this trick before?

When she gets back with solid news, she will bribe those who are short of money and help those who are in trouble. She still doesn't believe that there is anyone who cannot be bribed.

"Miss, just rest assured. There is nothing to be afraid of those stupid people. Even if you give her the best things, it will only help others..."

"Yes, yes. Our lady is different. You are smart and have a good reputation..."

Jadeite and Tourmaline have been with Wen Jinzhu for these years, and naturally have helped her do many secret things. They also know their master's habits very well. Of course, they pick out the words that she likes to hear the most, which soon makes her frown relax and a slight smile appears on her face.

"Then you guys can do whatever you want. I'm tired today too. I'll get some flower petals over later so that I can take a bath and relax..."

Wen Jinzhu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and gave the order casually as she walked towards her yard. However, the moment she walked into the house, the smile on her face froze. If she hadn't seen that her two personal maids were equally shocked, she would have wondered if she had walked into the wrong house.

Wen Jinzhu is the eldest daughter in the second house and the most beautiful girl of the entire Wen family. Not only her parents, but even her grandmother, Old Madam Wen, have high expectations for her.

With the family background of their Wen family and Wen Jinzhu's appearance and temperament, maybe one day she will be noticed by some prince. If she can really make it to that point, wouldn't she be able to rise to prominence like a phoenix, and the entire Wen family will also be able to prosper together?

Therefore, Wen Jinzhu's food and drink expenses were all very good. Her yard was decorated with flowers and there were countless precious ornaments in the house. Anyway, those things were from the public warehouse and would be covered with dust wherever they were placed. It would be better to put them in her room so that she could take a few more looks at them.

But at this moment, the so-called boudoir in front of him seemed like it had been robbed.

The beautifully crafted king-size bed is gone.

The specially made display cabinet and the ornaments on it are gone.

The large boxes filled with all kinds of clothes, the dressing table filled with all kinds of jewelry, the famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall...all of these were gone.

There were only a few of her old clothes scattered around on the floor, just thrown there casually. Among them, her favorite red bellyband was thrown in the middle of the room. If you looked closely, you could see a huge footprint on it.

"Who is it? Who did it?!"

Wen Jinzhu's eyes widened with anger, and it took her a long time to react. She immediately roared and called out all the maids and servants who were guarding outside.

"Miss, don't be angry first. It doesn't look like something was stolen. It looks more like a move. Maybe the lady moved the yard for you while we were out today. She wanted to give you a surprise."

Seeing that her master's face was red with anger, Tourmaline hurriedly tried to persuade him sweetly. Jade had the same idea and waved to the housekeeper in the yard to come over and question him.

"Where is the new courtyard that Madam has arranged? Take us there quickly..."

After going out today, not only did they not get anything done, but they were all exhausted. They had to do this again after coming back, and they didn't have the patience to cooperate with any surprises. They just wanted to quickly serve their master until he went to sleep so that they could have a rest.

"I wonder what new courtyard the young lady is talking about? We haven't received any news..."

The housekeeper was a woman with high cheekbones, and people usually called her Mother Gui.

She was originally scolding a few unruly little girls, and when she heard someone asking about the new yard, she was stunned.

"Then come and see what's going on in my room!"

Wen Jinzhu's anger, which had been suppressed, rose up again. She pointed at Gui Mama and yelled, scaring the servants in the yard so much that they shuddered all over.

You have to know that Wen Jinzhu always speaks softly in public for the sake of her own reputation, and would never shout like this.

When the confused Mother Gui looked into the house, she screamed in fear.

"Ah! There's a ghost! There's a ghost!"

Why would she rather believe there is a ghost than say there is a thief?

Because less than a quarter of an hour before Wen Jinzhu and her two servants came back, she took people in to light incense. At that time, the house was still the same as usual, and it didn't look like it had been robbed.

What's more, in such a short period of time, they did not leave to go somewhere else, but were doing things in the yard. Even if a thief came in and moved those things, it would be impossible that there would be no noise at all, right?

Seeing that her frightened expression did not seem fake, Wen Jinzhu and the two maids also started to panic. Such a strange thing had happened in the mansion, and it was not something that women like them could solve, so they quickly sent someone to notify the Second Master and Second Mistress to come over.

Yuxiu hid in the dark and watched all of this. She couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth. When she heard that the second lady was coming soon, her heart moved and she disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.

When the Second Master and the Second Mistress received the news, they had already washed and prepared to go to bed. When they heard that something had happened to Wen Jinzhu, they were immediately shocked, hurriedly put on their clothes, and rushed out with their people.

What they didn't know was that just as they walked out of the house, Yuxiu suddenly appeared in the house behind them.

Perhaps to avoid suspicion, the furnishings in the room of the two people in the second branch of the Wen family were very simple. Apart from a few presentable jewelry and head ornaments on the second wife's dressing table, there were only some clothes and accessories. As for ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, there was nothing at all.

Yuxiu didn't believe that they would live so frugally, so she immediately searched the house. This time she didn't want anything, but whenever she found something good that she thought was worth some money, she threw it into the space. As for the rags she had worn, she simply threw them all over the floor.

After she searched the entire house, she found several thousand taels of silver notes and only two brass keys.

Considering that the Second Lady is now in charge of the entire Wen family, this key should be the one to open the storehouse in the mansion.
