The Story of a Plane Merchant Selling a House
Chapter 125: Mouse Pretending to Be a Cat
There was a garden directly in front of the old lady's yard. The masters were in the yard, and the concubines and maids were in the garden, panicking in the night.
Qiwu saw the pregnant concubines she had promoted and ordered the maids in the old lady's yard to bring some chairs for the concubines.
Now, only Ning'er, a big maid, and several smaller maids were left in the old lady's yard.
The maids who followed the old lady to check on the storehouse and escaped were not allowed to enter the yard.
The little maids were not as brave as the servants and dared not refute Qiwu. They just listened to whatever Qiwu said.
She went to the rooms of several maids, brought out chairs, and let the concubines sit down.
The pregnant women with big bellies bowed to Qiwu with gratitude, and only breathed a sigh of relief after sitting down.
This time the prince really searched every room one by one, even the servants' rooms. I don't know if the guards stole anything while searching, but everyone's room was turned into a mess.
Almost everyone in Qiwu's courtyard followed Qiwu to the old lady's courtyard, except for the two maids guarding her boudoir and the two servants guarding the storeroom.
The guards claimed that Qiwu asked them to go to the old lady together and drove them out of the yard.
They first entered Qiwu's warehouse. There were not many things in the warehouse, but they were particularly valuable. There were several wooden boxes on the antique display shelf more than two meters high. When they were opened, most of them contained agate and diamond ornaments, and a glass cup.
The guard carefully took down the glass cup box and placed it in a large box, and also put in the agate ruyi, a diamond-inlaid peacock lamp and a diamond pomegranate ornament.
They opened the boxes one by one and looked inside. There were a lot of fabrics and a large number of exquisite clothes. There were twenty boxes of clothes alone. The guards just flipped through them.
There were also boxes of white fungus, dried shark fins, dried abalone, dried sea cucumbers, and more than a dozen boxes of delicacies from land and sea. The guards came forward and carried away all the delicacies.
Several guards secretly stuffed dried white fungus and dried shark fins into his arms, but the chief guard pretended not to see.
There were also a large number of calligraphy and paintings, but the guards had no ability to appreciate them, so they did not open them and just carried them away.
They also found whole boxes of pepper, several boxes in total. The guards looked at each other, found some cloth from the boxes, packed some on each of them, hid them on their bodies, and carried the rest of the pepper away.
There were some common items in the storeroom, such as hand warmers. The guards took a general look at them and left them alone.
The last box contained some jewelry, most of which were agate. Several guards looked at the boss, who gave them a look. Several guards each grabbed a few agate rings. The boss also picked a few and asked one of them to put them away for him. The whole box was also carried away.
After leaving the storeroom, the guards went to Qiwu's boudoir. This time they had to be much more careful. They went straight to the secret compartment under the bed with a clear goal in mind and took out the banknotes.
The guards were all attracted by the glass deer on the shelf in Qiwu's room. The deer was transparent and had huge antlers, about thirty centimeters high.
The captain of the guards shook his head, signaling everyone not to move, and left without taking anything else from the room.
By the time the whole mansion was searched, it was already daybreak, and Qiwu was the only one sitting in a chair with his eyes closed, not caring at all.
The rest of the maids and housekeepers were mostly nervous and whispering to each other.
When the guards returned to the courtyard and said they had not found the thief, the prince asked everyone to go back first.
After returning to the yard, Xing'er went to check the warehouse first. As expected, the warehouse was almost empty except for some clothes. Although Xing'er already knew that the things inside were not very valuable to Qiwu, she was still very angry.
Except for the missing banknote, everything else was there. The missing banknote was the two thousand taels given by her family that she had left behind.
When Xing'er led everyone to check what was missing from the warehouse, Qiwu first asked someone to report to Shizi that his warehouse had also been robbed.
Then she rode her flying skateboard to the old lady's yard and gently lifted the tiles.
Then he used the puppet talisman to control the movements of the sleeping old lady.
The morning sun was still very warm. The maids in the yard had to clean the house even if they had not slept all night, so they worked while yawning.
Suddenly, the door of the old lady's room opened. Some maids thought that the old lady had some instructions, so they rushed over. As a result, the maids found that the old lady was stumbling around in the room in her middle clothes. The strange thing was that the old lady had her eyes closed.
The maids' screams woke up the old lady. She wanted to curse as soon as she opened her mouth. It was really outrageous that someone would shout and scream while she was sleeping. These bitches should be sold out.
As a result, she couldn't make any sound. She tried to open her eyes, but found that she was not lying on the bed, but walking around in the yard. Her limbs were out of her control and she bumped into the door, the wall, and the ornaments in the house as she walked.
The old lady couldn't open her mouth no matter what. She tried hard to open her mouth to call for help. Her eyeballs were full of red bloodshot, but she still couldn't open her mouth.
The little maid in the yard looked at the old lady who had opened her eyes with great effort but whose eyes were full of bloodshot. She panicked and went to the prince's yard to report.
The prince had just received a message from Qiwu saying that her own warehouse had also been robbed. Of course he knew about Qiwu's warehouse, so he thought of pretending to comfort her and then find out. Qiwu had been there for such a long time, so when would the Qiwu clan send the next batch of property as agreed.
As a result, I heard about the old lady's madness, and hurried to the old lady's yard again.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw that the old lady's door was wide open, but she seemed unable to get out.
He kept stumbling around the room, bumping into walls everywhere, and his face was bleeding.
The prince stood outside the house and didn't dare to go in, so he asked the guards to go in and carry the old lady out.
As a result, the guards gathered in front of the door and no one dared to take that step.
Qiwu felt that the system required a distance of fifty meters to use the talisman and the mirage bead. I wondered if learning the immortal cultivation technique would allow me to control the distance further.
When the old lady was almost scared enough, she was so frightened that she almost rolled her eyes. The puppet talisman's one-hour validity period also expired, and the talisman automatically turned into ashes.
At the moment when the talisman lost its effect, the old lady was finally able to speak.
"Ah, Liu Yun, it must be you. Your things are not with me, but in the hands of the old marquis. The part I occupied was stolen. Please let me go."
The old lady no longer looked like the dignified old lady she usually was. Her face was covered in blood. She huddled to one side, trembling, crying and shaking, with tears, blood, and even saliva all over her. She looked in a miserable state.
The prince waved his hand and asked the guards to take away all the maids in the yard. The maids must not be allowed to know about this kind of thing. The guards who could come in were there to do the dirty work for him. They knew how to deal with this kind of thing.
The prince wanted to help the old lady into the house. The old lady was panicked. When she saw her son approaching, she instantly felt relieved.
"Hurry, I want to move to another yard. This yard is no longer habitable. I need to move right away."
The prince ordered Ning'er, the only remaining maid in the old lady's yard, to make arrangements quickly.
Ning'er nodded her head and walked out of the yard. She did not arrange things immediately, but looked around and buried a note under a tree before continuing to do her work.
