The servants did not dare to slack off at all. They carefully helped Gu Qingye up and brought him to Gu Qingchen.

Gu Qingchen said with surprise:

"Fourth brother?

How could it be you?

Why are you here for no reason? "

The more Gu Qingye thought about it, the angrier he became.

"Brother, these dogs are blinding their eyes.

You dare to commit treason, even I don't recognize you anymore.

Drag them all away and give them ten spankings!"

The servants kowtowed desperately and begged for mercy:

"I was wrong. I will never do it again. Please forgive me, Master."

Gu Qingchen looked at him angrily and asked:

"Why don't you stay in your garden and come here to act mysterious?"

Gu Qingye subconsciously glanced at Song Wanyin, knowing that his elder brother had come here with such a large force just to look for the house deeds and land deeds.

Worried that Song Wanyin would betray him, he came stealthily to find out the situation.

When he was a child, he secretly witnessed the whole process of his mother putting some valuable items into the secret compartment.

My mother had a copper key, which she usually hid under a square pillow, under a vase, or occasionally behind a portrait of the Five-Way God of Wealth.

This copper key is specifically used to open a large mahogany box, which was my mother's dowry.

At the bottom of the large mahogany box, there is an exquisite and small pear wood carved box with a silver key inside.

This silver key is used to open a secret cabinet embedded in the wall. Behind the secret cabinet is a golden key.

This golden key is specifically used to open the lock of the secret compartment.

It is such a tedious and complicated process that most people can’t even imagine it, let alone the possibility of theft.

The reason why his action was so smooth this time was entirely because he found the copper key with ease.

While Nanny Gui went to make medicine for his mother and his mother was still drowsy, he skillfully carried out the tedious lock-opening process.

The house deeds and land deeds were naturally easily put into the pocket.

This matter concerns his mother's life, and his mother must not know that he did it, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

Song Wanyin looked at him calmly, thinking that he wouldn't be stupid enough to blow himself up and give herself away.

In this way, it seemed that both sides suffered losses, but in fact, only he was injured.

After all, anything that is not in her favor will never happen under her wisdom and decisiveness.

Gu Qingye was naturally not stupid enough to shoot himself in the foot, so he made up a story:

"Such a big incident happened in this mansion. I was so worried that I couldn't sleep or eat well, so I wanted to come out and take a look.

Is there anything I can do to help?

After all, I am also a member of the mansion. I can't just be a hands-off manager and not take care of anything."

Gu Qingchen has always known him. He is an uneducated, careless person who always looks as if he has nothing to do with anything.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

"Fourth brother, how come I never knew that you still have a sense of responsibility?"

Facing his elder brother's questioning, Gu Qingye swallowed his saliva frantically and smiled awkwardly:

"Brother, look at what you said.

There have been so many troubles in the house recently that mother has become sick from anger, and your old injuries have not yet healed.

As a man who stands tall and proud in the Gu family, how could I let myself down at the critical moment?

In my opinion, either the mother was so busy that she forgot where she put the valuables.

Either there was a thief in my mother's garden, otherwise he would not know my mother's hiding place so well.

I suggest that we should first conduct a thorough investigation of the maids, servants, and servants who serve in my mother's garden.

If no evidence can be found, the only option is to force a confession through torture.

I believe that the thief will be caught soon."

Gu Qingchen looked at him with half belief and half doubt, but when he thought about the other important things he had to do, he thought it would be a good opportunity to ask him to help share some of the burden.

"Fourth brother, it's rare that you have such filial piety and are willing to do something for the Gu family sincerely.

I'll leave this matter to you. I'll give you three days.

Within three days, you must not only recover the house deed and land deed, but also bring the thief to me.

Can you do it?

Gu Qingye's face suddenly changed when he heard this, it was even uglier than if he had eaten shit, he said with a smile:

"Yes, I can do it."

Gu Qingchen nodded in satisfaction, turned around and glared at Song Wanyin fiercely, snorting coldly:

"Don't be too complacent. If I find out that you are the one behind this, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

Seeing him like a red-eyed rabbit that would bite people when it got angry, Song Wanyin showed a hint of sneer at the corner of her mouth:

"I am always waiting for your visit."

Gu Qingchen hit a wall here and walked forward in anger and humiliation, stumbling every three steps.

Every time I fell, the old wound would hurt, and the scar that had finally scabbed over would be torn again.

The piercing pain was so severe that he broke out in a cold sweat and his hands and feet began to tremble uncontrollably.

Seeing this, the servants rushed forward and tried to carry him on both sides, slowly sending him back to Songbai Garden.

Gu Qingchen didn't want to let Song Wanyin laugh at him, so even though he could hardly walk steadily, he still stubbornly refused to let the servant help him.

"Get out of here. I can walk on my own."

Just as he finished speaking, he fell down again, like a turtle with its shell turned over, and his limbs flapped wildly in the air.

Gu Qingye was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He wanted to help several times and urged:

"What are you all standing there for? Come on and help."

The servants turned pale with fear and hurriedly rushed forward to carry Gu Qingchen out.

Seeing them leave in disgrace, the servants of Qingzhu Garden were all proud.

Tian Cheng couldn't help but burst out laughing:

"Hahaha, it's really a shame to save face."

Nanny Wei was also very relieved and said:

"This time, the Marquis should be taught a lesson. Let's see if he dares to come and mess with my girl again in the future."

Song Wanyin's mood was not affected at all. She would live her life over again and would never suffer from mental exhaustion again.

She no longer holds grudges and usually takes revenge on the spot.

"Tian Cheng, Madam Wei, please follow up on the matter I have told you to do as soon as possible.

If there is anything that needs to be inquired about or someone that needs to be followed, please report it promptly.”

Tiancheng and Nanny Wei immediately stopped laughing and responded respectfully.

Ever since he witnessed the wise decision of his master, his heart was filled with admiration, and he was determined to vent his anger on his master and turn the tables.

Song Wanyin raised her eyes and gazed into the distance, falling into deep thought.

In fact, she had already found the buyer of Gu Qingchen's transaction through Mr. Biao, who was also a high-ranking official with a prominent background.

However, no matter how high-ranking the official is, she can always find a way to interfere.

After all, with her intelligence and talent, coupled with the connections and influence left by her father, she is enough to threaten the status of many people.

The people in the Marquis' Mansion have long been rotten to the core, and it's time to bring them under control.
