I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

I saw that the huge warehouse was empty.

Only in the corner of the wall was there a large box covered in dust.

When the box was opened, a musty smell hit me.

Xie Shaohang took a closer look and saw only a few shabby small boxes inside.

It looks like it was used to hold jewelry before.

But now, the small box is empty, without any jewelry.

Xie Shaohang's face was as gloomy as water, and he asked the person guarding the warehouse in a cold voice: "Where are the things in the warehouse?"

He thought that the person guarding the warehouse had stolen the things and took them away while his mother was too busy to pay attention.

"Master, the key to this storehouse is in the hands of the Madam, not mine. As for the things inside, they were moved away by the Madam two months ago. Judging from their attire, they look like people from the palace."

"Someone from the palace?" Xie Shaohang couldn't help but take a breath, "Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

"I'm not mistaken. They are people from the palace. The leader is a eunuch with a duck voice, no beard on his face, and no Adam's apple on his neck."

Xie Shaohang walked out of the warehouse with a cold face and went straight to Madam Xie's room.

He felt that even if the things in the storehouse were gone, his mother would at least have kept some of her own money there.

However, he searched through his mother's bedroom for a long time and only found less than 80 taels of cash in the cabinet beside the bed.

Just at this moment, someone from the second house came over and urged Xie Shaohang to give the money quickly.

Suddenly, Xie Shaohang's eyes widened with anger: "Go back! You still want to lose his money!"

After saying that, Xie Shaohang pushed away the people from the second room, strode out, and headed straight for where Lin Xinrou lived.

But this time, he was not in the mood to look for Lin Xinrou, so he went straight to Madam Xie's room.

However, unfortunately, Mrs. Xie had just taken a tranquilizer and fell asleep.

Because Madam Xie's knee was dug out and she was in excruciating pain, in order to make her less painful, the doctor ordered that she be fed a bowl of tranquilizer every hour, so as to alleviate her pain to the greatest extent.

Xie Shaohang looked around and his eyes fixed on Qiuyun.

Qiuyun was the head maid chosen by Madam Xie. Ever since Nanny Rong passed away, Madam Xie had not had anyone she could use easily around her.

She had no intention of training her servants, and the reason she promoted Qiuyun was simply because she was somewhat smart.

"Qiuyun, where did all the things in the Madam's storeroom go?"

Qiu Yun lowered her head and answered honestly, "In reply to what the young master said, the eldest lady handed over all the property and silver in the storehouse to the people from the palace. The eldest lady said that they were people close to Concubine Xian, and that they would be very useful with the money."

“Why did the mother give away everything?”

"Are you blaming me?" Mrs. Xie's gloomy voice suddenly came from the side.

"Mom, why are you awake?"

Mrs. Xie did not answer his question, but asked, "You think it's stupid for me to give away all my money, don't you?"

"Mother, that's not what I meant."

"Forget it, I might as well make things clear to you. Cui Shuyan is now Princess Xie, and it is too difficult for us to deal with her with our strength. But what we can't do, Concubine Xian can do. She promised me that she would kill Cui Shuyan."

Xie Shaohang was puzzled: "Mother, why do you have to be so hard on Cui Shuyan?"

"Recently, I have increasingly felt that she is the culprit of everything. From your failure to get into college to all the troubles at home, I think it was Cui Shuyan's doing. She is taking revenge on us."

"No way?" Xie Shaohang said with his eyes wide open, unable to believe it.

"Why not?" As she spoke, Madam Xie's face turned pale.

When she woke up, she was already in severe pain, and talking so much was like adding insult to injury, and she could no longer bear it.

Xie Shaohang hurriedly ordered: "Come here, bring another bowl of tranquilizer."

Madam Xie stretched out her hand to stop him, and then asked with all her might, "Why are you asking about my property? Don't you have any money?"

"Yes, Second Aunt and her family are making a fuss about dividing the family property. They want to leave the ancestral home to us and ask us to pay some money."

"You want to split up the family now? No way! You are not allowed to split up the family, and you are not allowed to give them money!"

Xie Shaohang was extremely annoyed: "Right now, the daily expenses of the mansion can no longer be maintained."

"That's impossible. What about Liao Tongxia? Didn't she continue to use her dowry to fill the gap?"

"She went back to the Liao family. It looks like she doesn't plan to come back."

Madam Xie was shocked: "How is this possible? She is so obsessed with you, how could she be willing to leave you like this?"

"Mom, people always change."

"No, you don't understand women. Once a woman sets her mind on a man, it's her lifelong love. She will never change her mind."

"But things are always changing. Mother, let's not talk about this for now. Do you have any money left? I need to take out some money to maintain the daily expenses of the mansion."

"No more." Madam Xie looked at the furnishings in the room and complained, "Since the current situation is difficult, we should save some money. Why rent such a nice house?"

Xie Shaohang patiently explained: "Mother, you misunderstood. This is not a rented house, this is where Rouer lives."

"Rou'er?" Mrs. Xie was stunned, then she realized that Xie Shaohang was talking about Lin Xinrou.

She was a little unconvinced: "No way, I didn't spend much money when I rented this house, and there is nothing inside."

As she spoke, Madam Xie's eyes lit up: "Since she can decorate this place so gorgeously, it shows that she has a lot of money. If you are short of money, just ask her for it."

"Isn't this inappropriate?" Xie Shaohang hesitated.

"What's wrong with that? You are her man, and she is honored that you are willing to spend her money! Merchant women are lowly, and she would like you to spend her money so that she can appear more important to you."

Mrs. Xie's words gave Xie Shaohang endless confidence.

At this time, the tranquilizer was delivered.

Xie Shaohang personally fed Madam Xie the drink, and when he saw that she was fast asleep, he got up and left, going to Lin Xinrou's room.

As soon as he entered, he saw Lin Xinrou leaning on the couch, staring at him intently.

As she watched, she lowered her head, tears fell, and she murmured, "I am dreaming again. Brother Shaohang will never come to see me again."

The sound of "Brother Shaohang" seemed to bring Xie Shaohang back to the time when they were full of affection. He took a step forward and announced excitedly: "Rou'er! It's me! This is not a dream, I'm here to see you!"

Lin Xinrou suddenly looked up and looked at Xie Shaohang in astonishment. It was not until Xie Shaohang walked step by step towards her that she stood up and walked towards him step by step.

After finally getting close, Lin Xinrou stroked Xie Shaohang's cheek, tears in her eyes: "Brother Shaohang, is it really you?"
