Jiang Hao was hiding on the beam outside the main room of the second house. He laughed when he heard the conversation between the mother and daughter in the room.

She originally wanted to collect the money that Ji Yaozong had paid for the harm he had done to her, but justice took its toll on her and she happened to overhear the conversation between Liu's mother and daughter.

Since I know...

Jiang Hao came up with a plan instantly. After the two people in the house left, he easily entered the house and put all the valuables into the space.

Afterwards, the houses of Liu, Ji Xueying and the youngest son Ji Zijun were all searched.

Jiang Hao also moved away the dowry that Liu had prepared for Ji Xueying.

Since I am marrying into my uncle's family, I guess I won't have any dowry. My uncle and aunt are my future parents-in-law, so they won't say anything.

Generally speaking, the Second House does not have much money or possessions. This is probably because it has been neglected by the Emperor for more than ten years and the entire Ji family is not well-off, so it looks strong on the outside but is actually weak on the inside.

However, the more this happened, the more pleasure Jiang Hao felt in revenge.

I really didn't expect that the "settlement of accounts" would come so quickly.

……

The next day, Liu was the first to discover that something was wrong.

Next came Ji Xueyin.

Ji Zijun yelled that the slingshot he had placed on his pillow was missing.

The whole second room started to get noisy, and finally someone realized that there was a thief in the yard of the second room last night.

Liu and Ji Xueyin's faces turned pale. The mother and daughter had just discussed everything and found that all the valuables in everyone's room were gone.

"Mother...I...what about my dowry?"

Ji Xueyin was so anxious that she couldn't cry anymore: "Aunt... If Aunt knew, would she think that it was my family that didn't give me a dowry?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu quickly grabbed her daughter's cold hands and said, "Don't worry, don't worry. Let's go find your grandfather and see if there are any thieves in other courtyards."

The thief broke into Master Ji's mansion. He was so bold.

As for her brother and sister-in-law, Liu simply didn't have the energy to think about it anymore.

Except for the second room, the rest of the yard is in good condition.

Upon hearing this, Liu's mother and daughter were struck by lightning. How could this be possible!

The servants serving the second room also began to tremble with fear, especially those who served personally. Firstly, they were the primary suspects, and secondly, they were not able to provide adequate care.

Liu wanted to report to the police, but was suppressed by Ji Yan: "Report to the police? With what you have, who will Pei Min investigate? Rather than letting the Ji family be pointed at and laughed at behind their backs, it is better to find the cause among the servants in the courtyard."

In Ji Yan's opinion, the thief did not steal the valuables of Master Zhong, but chose to steal from the second house, which naturally had something to do with the people in the second house.

Most likely, it was because they were too harsh on their servants on a daily basis, which caused them to rebel and take revenge on them.

Liu had a hard time expressing her grievances, but she didn't dare to disobey her father-in-law's decision, so she could only swallow her tears.

As for Ji Xueyin's dowry, she didn't dare to mention it for the time being.

As soon as they returned to the courtyard, the servants of the second house were interrogated one by one, and the atmosphere was chaotic...

In the end, Cui Er was driven out of the house and sold off because she stole something and tried to escape...

In fact, everyone in the second house knew it clearly in their hearts. It was just that the Second Lady was taking this opportunity to get rid of Cui'er. It was because she always wanted to get close to the Second Master, and it was almost as if "I want to climb into the Second Master's bed" was written on her face.

After listening to the gossip, Jiang Hao felt better and even drank half a bowl more of the minced meat and vegetable porridge this morning.

Putting down her bowl and chopsticks, she said to Xiangcao, "Go see Xianglan if you have time and tell her what happened to Cui'er."

Vanilla quickly responded with a smile: "Okay, I just need to change her medicine, I'll go now."
