LOL! Is this scumbag waiting for the New Year to divorce?
Chapter 11 Reporting to the Official
Xiaoman and Guyu, who were standing by, were also impressed by the way their daughter lied with sweet words and open eyes.
It seems that they have no intention of leaving the thief alive.
The two naturally stood on Lu Chenshuang's side.
Their girl told them last night that what was stolen from the warehouse this time was not only three hairpins and two pieces of cloth, but also several particularly valuable pieces of jewelry.
Tell them not to say the wrong things in front of the officials of Jingzhao Prefecture.
The two of them naturally agreed. If someone dared to steal from their daughter, they would certainly not show mercy.
After registering the lost items, a leading yamen runner asked, "Madam, this mansion is heavily guarded and outsiders can't get in. Have you searched the mansion carefully?"
Seeing that the people in Jingzhao Prefecture thought he was a traitor, she was absolutely right.
Lu Chenshuang sighed and said: "To be honest with you, most of the people in our mansion are family-born children, and they have been loyal servants for generations.
If I rashly send people to search, I'm afraid it will hurt the relationship between master and servant.
Furthermore, the possibility of outsiders committing the crime cannot be ruled out.
I chose to report to the authorities because I hope your government can conduct a thorough investigation.
No matter who it is, if they dare to steal from me, I will definitely pursue them to the end."
The leading officer knew Lu Chenshuang's attitude as soon as he heard it, so he said: "Since Madam has said so, we will investigate without hesitation.
Let’s start with the servants in Marquis Jingyang’s mansion.
I will also send someone to search the pawn shops on the street to see if anyone has pawned these things recently."
Lu Chenshuang nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you all."
The leading officer waved his hand and the other officers began to search.
Li was having breakfast in her room when she heard a commotion.
The wound that had already scabbed over began to ache again.
Ever since she hit her head, she couldn't stand any noisy noises, so she hadn't seen Lu Chenshuang when she came to pay her respects these past few days.
Because as soon as Lu Chenshuang arrived, she started chattering useless nonsense, which to Li was like a few crows making a noise.
Especially on the day when Li was injured, Lu Chenshuang's sudden and frightening behavior really scared Li.
Li heard the noise getting louder and louder, she put down her chopsticks and said, "What are you making so much noise for so early in the morning? Are there any rules in this mansion?"
At this time, Haiyun, the maidservant beside Li, hurried forward and said: "Madam, it seems that something was lost in the madam's storeroom, so she sent someone to Jingzhao Prefecture to report the case.
The Jingzhao Prefecture's officers believe that someone from our mansion stole it, so they are now searching."
Li scolded him and said, "Nonsense! How could something be missing from her room? Even if something was missing, she could have looked for it in private. Why make such a big fuss about it?"
Go call Lu Chenshuang over to me, don't mess around all day and make the whole house a mess."
Upon hearing this, Haiyun hurried to Lishuang Garden to find Lu Chenshuang.
After Lu Chenshuang explained everything clearly to the people in Jingzhao Prefecture, she returned to the pharmacy to sort out the purchased medicines.
Let’s check and see which unlucky guy we find this time.
Anyway, no matter who it is, if he dares to steal from her, he will be skinned alive if he doesn't die.
Lu Chenshuang has already put those valuable jewelry into her own laboratory. Whoever finds those ordinary jewelry will bear the loss.
Lu Chenshuang sorted the herbs very quickly and could tell what they were at a glance.
Then put the herbs in order and label them.
So it only took Lu Chenshuang half an hour to finish tidying up.
At this time, Guyu came in and reported: "Miss, Haiyun from the Madam's side is here."
Hearing this, Lu Chenshuang put down the work at hand and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to pay our respects to the Madam."
After saying that, he walked out of the pharmacy first.
Seeing this, Guyu hurriedly followed.
When Haiyun saw Lu Chenshuang, he quickly bowed to her and said, "Madam, Madam..."
Lu Chenshuang waved her hand and said, "Okay, you don't have to say anything. I was just planning to go and pay my respects to the Madam."
Did Lu Chenshuang know that the lady wanted to find her just to ask her to report to the police? She had already thought of the words to say.
Haiyun was relieved to see that Lu Chenshuang was so easy to talk to. She was really scared by Lu Chenshuang in the past few days.
Seeing that Lu Chenshuang had already walked away, Haiyun hurriedly strode over to Lu Chenshuang and whispered to her: "The Madam is very angry, Madam, you'd better be careful."
Lu Chenshuang looked at Haiyun in surprise and then said with a smile: "Okay, I understand. Thank you for your reminder."
It is said that one should not hit a smiling person. No matter what Haiyun's purpose was in reminding him, Lu Chenshuang could not refuse her kindness.
Haiyun was stunned for a moment. Was the lady smiling at her and thanking her just now?
In the past, the Madam would never look at the servants except Madam Xia.
But Nanny Xia, relying on the fact that the dowry was from the old lady, never took the lady seriously.
Haiyun reacted and quickly waved her hands and said, "I am not worthy of your thanks, Madam..."
Lu Chenshuang didn't say anything else and soon arrived at Ci'an Hall.
Li was sitting in the main seat with a sullen face and her head was wrapped in white cloth.
In fact, Li is not very old, just in her early forties. Although she is not very beautiful, she is definitely the kind of person who looks harmless.
In addition, he was injured and his face was a little pale. In Lu Chenshuang's eyes, he looked like a white flower.
Of course, this is also the personality that Li established in the capital.
Lu Chenshuang clicked her tongue inwardly, thinking that he was not afraid of being shabby even at such an old age.
Lu Chenshuang didn't show it on her face. She bowed respectfully to Li and said, "Greetings, Madam. How is the wound on your head? Is it getting better?"
Li snorted coldly and said, "Thanks to you, I'm not going to die!"
Lu Chenshuang was still politely half-squatting, and Li had no intention of letting her stand up.
Lu Chenshuang didn't tolerate her bad habits, so she stood up and sat down on a stool beside her.
Seeing Lu Chenshuang becoming more and more unrestrained, Li said even more unhappily: "Is this your upbringing? You sat down privately before your elders even asked you to."
Lu Chenshuang replied calmly: "I really don't know about my upbringing, but I become stronger when I meet a stronger opponent."
Li didn't hear what she said clearly, so she looked at her and asked, "What did you just say?"
Lu Chenshuang replied: "Oh, I mean, you have always been kind and virtuous. Everyone in the capital doesn't know that you are the mother-in-law who hates to torture her daughter-in-law the most.
I was running outside all day yesterday and my legs are really sore, so I think Mom won’t mind if I sit down and rest for a while.”
Hearing this, Li became even more furious. She slammed the table hard and said to Lu Chenshuang, "Lu Chenshuang! How dare you!"
