Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled
Chapter 134: Emptying the Marquisate 2
"I don't have much appetite. Let's put it aside for now and eat it in the sedan chair later."
I got up at 3 a.m. to put on makeup. Any normal person would not be able to eat at this time.
After putting on makeup, Nanny Liu came over to comb Ye Jintang's hair and put on a full set of headwear for her.
Although the headpiece looked extremely gorgeous, it was also very heavy to wear. After a while, Ye Jintang felt the pressure on his head.
Having too much gold jewelry is really annoying.
And there was the bright red wedding dress, with one layer on the left and one layer on the right. After she had put on all the clothes, Ye Jintang felt that she couldn't walk without the support of a maid.
"Do all brides have to dress like me when they get married?"
Ye Jintang stretched her sleeves hard. She felt that the wedding dress she was wearing weighed at least 10 kilograms.
"How can girls from ordinary families compare with you? The wedding dress you wear is enough for an ordinary family to eat for a lifetime."
"The whole set of head ornaments on the girl's head is so big that an ordinary family would not be able to finish them even in ten lifetimes."
“Is it that expensive?”
Ye Jintang adjusted the tassels on his temples and felt that he had a new understanding of the prices in this world.
"Gold has a price, but these jewels on the girl's head are all made by famous masters, so they are naturally different."
Just as Ye Jintang had finished getting dressed, Lu Zhu hurried back.
"Young lady, this is terrible. The storehouse in the front yard has been emptied by thieves. I heard that the eldest young lady's dowry has also been lost. Mrs. Gan and the eldest young lady have already gone there. I could hear the eldest young lady crying from a long distance away."
"From the old lady's side?"
"There's no news from the old lady, but I just saw Nanny Sun go to ask the palace doctor. The old lady seems to be ill."
Ye Jintang laughed in his heart. How could Old Madam Ye be sick? She must have known that her vault had been emptied, which was why she became so angry that she fell ill.
"Madam Zhang, should I go and pay my respects to the old lady before getting married?"
“There is such a rule.”
"What are we waiting for? Let's go and watch the fun."
Ye Jintang lifted the hem of her skirt and walked happily towards Fushouyuan.
As soon as I walked to the gate of Fushouyuan, I ran into Madam Gan and Ye Yanran.
Ye Yanran, with tears in her eyes, was stunned when she saw Ye Jintang's outfit. She was speechless for a long time.
Ye Yanran knew best what kind of dowry Mrs. Gan gave to Ye Jintang.
Both the headgear and the wedding dress were the most ordinary.
But the Ye Jintang in front of him was shrouded in jewels and her wedding dress was a rare red brocade.
"Ye Jintang, where did you steal the wedding dress and headgear from?"
"What do you mean, elder sister? How could my wedding dress and headgear be stolen? Don't accuse me wrongly."
"Then tell me where did you get this wedding dress and head ornaments? You can't say that your ex-mother left them to you, right?"
"A piece of red silk is worth a thousand gold coins, and your mother is not in a position to afford it."
Ye Jintang simply stopped pretending to be innocent and smiled calmly at everyone, saying slowly, "My headgear and wedding dress were sent by His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin. I wonder if my elder sister also feels that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin cannot afford red silk."
As he spoke, Ye Jintang deliberately lifted his sleeve and gently touched the embroidery on it.
Under the moonlight, the red brocade emitted a soft glow that was so beautiful that Ye Yanran was going crazy with jealousy.
Her dowry had just been lost, and the headgear and wedding dress her mother had prepared for her were also missing.
If he wanted to get married within a month, he could only go to a clothing store to buy ready-made wedding dresses and head ornaments.
How could those things compare to what my mother prepared herself?
Thinking of this, Ye Yanran wished she could rush forward and tear Ye Jintang to pieces.
"Sixth girl, how did His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin give you the wedding dress and headgear? How come I have never heard of this?"
"Your Highness Prince Qin doesn't need to report his actions to your aunt."
As he spoke, Ye Jintang bowed to Madam Gan and walked towards Fushou Garden.
At this time, the courtyard was brightly lit, and maids and old women came in and out of the main house from time to time.
Ye Jintang stood at the door of the main house and said loudly, "Granddaughter Ye Jintang greets grandmother."
Old Madam Ye, who was leaning on the Luohan bed in the room, felt her temples bulging and almost exploded when she heard Ye Jintang's voice.
"Madame Sun, go and send the sixth girl away. I don't want to see anyone now."
"Yes, old slave, go right away."
Nanny Sun lifted the curtain and came out. She first bowed towards Ye Jintang before she spoke.
"Sixth Miss, the old lady had a serious emergency at night. The old lady said that you don't need to go in to pay your respects, you can just go out directly."
"Take care, grandma. Your granddaughter is leaving home."
Ye Jintang politely bowed towards Old Madam Ye's main house, and then walked out slowly with the help of Luzhu and Lianqiao.
Ye Yanran and Madam Gan watched her leave. Although they were reluctant, they could do nothing about it. They could only curse her in their hearts that she would marry into the Prince of Qin's mansion and be tortured to death by the Prince of Qin immediately.
The maids and servants who were watching couldn't help but sigh at Ye Jintang's slightly thin figure.
Without parental care, even if the daughter of a marquis gets married, it's heartbreaking to watch.
But Ye Jintang didn't take Old Madam Ye seriously at all, and even laughed happily in a low voice.
Old Madam Ye was still in very good health. Even after such a big incident, she managed to stay standing and did not fall down.
Ye Jintang had no parents to say goodbye to, so after leaving Fushou Garden, he went straight back to Feicui Garden, waiting for an auspicious time to leave.
The old marquis in the front yard learned that his mansion had been robbed and all his belongings had been stolen. He was so shocked that he almost fainted on the spot.
"Father, you have to hold on. When the sixth girl gets married, many people will come to the Marquis' Mansion to congratulate her. Father must not let anyone laugh at him then."
Ye Xinyuan stepped forward to support the old marquis and asked him to sit down and have a cup of tea to calm his nerves.
"What on earth is going on? How could a thief suddenly break into the house and take away all the valuables in the house overnight?"
The old marquis just couldn't understand it. The marquis's mansion also had servants and guards patrolling at night, and Fu Shou Garden also had maids patrolling at night.
With so many people coming and going, how did the thieves move those heavy boxes out of the mansion without anyone noticing?
"I'm afraid our mansion has been targeted by someone for a long time, otherwise they wouldn't have suddenly emptied the vault."
"As the eldest brother said, after we send the sixth girl out, we will close the door and check carefully. The four keys to the vault have always been in your mother's hands. If someone wants to open the vault door without anyone noticing, they will definitely leave clues."
"No matter who stole the things from our mansion, I will make him spit them out intact."
The old marquis almost gritted his teeth when he said the last sentence.
He had worked hard for half his life and finally saved up some property, he couldn't just let it go to those thieves.
