My bad father married a princess, my mother divorced me, and I became the group's favorite

Ever since Liu Yunniang left the warehouse that day, she arranged for the servants in the mansion to take turns guarding the warehouse.

Old Madam Ye felt depressed after seeing this. After all these years, she had never realized that Liu was such a difficult person.

If I had known this, I should have replaced the contraceptive soup with the one that could kill people as soon as it came out.

It's too late to regret!

She was really heartbroken. Such a huge sum of money. If she lost it, how would Bo'er be able to buy a mansion in the capital city where every inch of land is worth a lot of money?

Ye Xiaoxiao doesn't care how regretful Madam Ye is there?

I didn't realize it before, but my mother is such a decisive person.

In the past two days, her mother took her to move the things from another house into the space, and also assigned more people to guard it.

In this way, no one could have imagined that all the gold, silver, jewelry, and even some furniture and ornaments had already been taken away by the mother and daughter.

The Ye family's house was bought by Liu Yunniang's father for five hundred taels of silver.

Now that they are moving out, she will naturally not keep the house where the Ye mother and son once lived, but she will not sell it to them at a low price either.

She asked Mother Xu to contact the real estate agency and put the Ye family's house up for sale.

The house has a good location, is quiet and peaceful, and is also close to the academy, giving a sense of tranquility in the midst of a bustling city.

Within two days, a broker came to report that someone had found a favorite and offered eight hundred taels of silver.

Liu Yunniang didn't care about the price. Eight hundred taels was not too high. The other party made the offer in anticipation of her bargaining.

But because she had some plans, she asked the agent to reply to the other party.

The deal can be done for eight hundred taels, but after paying the money and getting the title deed, you have to wait a month before you can take possession of the house.

When the other party heard this, he immediately asked the broker to reply and agreed.

The action was quick and the silver and land deeds were ready.

I went directly to the government office to report.

The house has a good location, so even if the price is nine hundred taels, it's still acceptable.

Now, by moving there just a month later, you can easily earn a hundred taels of silver. Why not do it?

So, before Mrs. Ye noticed, the house had already been sold.

Everything was almost arranged, and Liu Yunniang prepared to take her daughter to the capital.

Mother Xu is old, and she needs to be alone at the Liu family’s old house and the shop.

Liu Yunniang planned to let Mother Xu stay in Jiangnan.

"Miss, I really can't bear to leave you and the young lady. Let me go with you. The capital is a place where you are unfamiliar with the people. Once there, if anything happens, I can take care of you."

When Mother Xu heard that she had to wait at Liu's house, she couldn't stop crying. She had never left the young lady for so many years. She was really worried.

Liu Yunniang knew how much Mother Xu felt about her, and she was reluctant to leave, but she didn't know when she would be back from the capital this time.

She would definitely leave someone to watch over the Liu family mansion.

"Mother Xu, I can't bear to leave you either. If possible, I will take you with me. The Liu family is the root of Xiaoxiao and me. When I go to the capital and get the divorce letter, we will never be separated again."

Liu Yunniang was also reluctant to leave.

Mother Xu knew what the young lady was talking about. The son-in-law left so secretly. If the young lady could not divorce, she would probably have to bear the name of a mistress for the rest of her life.

"I understand, young lady, don't worry, just go and I will take good care of the house."

Mother Xu spoke in a firm tone, saying that since the young lady had handed the Liu family over to her, she would definitely not let her down.

Seeing that Mother Xu had accepted it, Liu Yunniang continued,

"Take all the people in our courtyard back to the Liu family. There are other servants at the old lady's place. See if anyone wants to leave. If so, give them the indenture. If anyone doesn't want to leave, take them back to the Liu family as well."

These servants originally followed her to the Ye family.

If someone wanted to leave, she would not stop them.

If you don’t want to leave, you can just go back to the Liu family.

When she and Xiaoxiao come back from the capital, the Liu family will also need someone to take care of them.

The waterways in the south of the Yangtze River are convenient, and it is summer now.

If she wanted to take a car to the capital, she would probably have to endure a lot of trouble along the way. After thinking about it, Liu Yunniang finally decided to take the water route.

Traveling by water may be affected by the weather, but overall it is more comfortable.

Xiaoxiao was still young, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear the long journey by carriage.

The Liu family has their own boats and shops in the capital, which is quite convenient.

Liu Yunniang began to prepare her luggage, and packed all her clothes, valuables, daily necessities, etc.

She also specially prepared many of Xiaoxiao's favorite gadgets and snacks, fearing that the child would be bored or hungry on the road.

Of course, all this was done quietly.

Ever since Old Madam Ye sprained her foot in the warehouse that day, she has been recuperating in Chunhui Hall. It has been a rare few days of quiet time.

The day of departure soon arrived.

That morning, just as the sky was getting light, Liu Yunniang brought Ye Xiaoxiao, followed by several maids and servants, and set out from the back door and boarded the Liu family's boat.

The boat started moving slowly. Liu Yunniang stood at the bow, looking at the south bank of the river which was getting farther and farther away. The breeze brushed across her face, softly and coolly.

The boat glided slowly on the water, its bow splitting the turquoise water and creating layers of white waves.

My heart is full of emotions.

Ye Xiaoxiao was very excited. She ran around on the boat and was curious about everything.

She has only been in this ancient time for a short time, so everything she sees is strange. This is even more realistic than what she sees on TV dramas!

There were other boats shuttling back and forth on the river, including merchant ships carrying goods, with boatmen rowing vigorously while shouting slogans, and pleasure boats, with melodious music and laughter.

The small town on the shore gradually faded into the distance, with quaint buildings standing side by side and bluestone roads winding and twisting.

On the stone bridge at the entrance of the town, pedestrians come and go, some carrying loads, some holding children, and the scene is full of the breath of life.

"Mom, we are going to the capital. Will we be able to see a lot of fun things?"

Ye Xiaoxiao asked while pulling on the corner of Liu Yunniang's clothes.

Liu Yunniang touched her head and said, "Yes, Xiaoxiao, there are many new things in the capital waiting for you to discover."

Along the way, Liu Yunniang looked at the scenery along the way and silently planned what to do after arriving in the capital.

She must obtain the divorce papers smoothly and secure a stable future for herself and her daughter.

"Mother, what do you think will happen when the mistress wakes up and finds that we are gone?"

Ye Xiaoxiao thought of her cheap grandmother's stunned expression and couldn't stop laughing.

"Hahahahahaha..."

Seeing her daughter laughing happily, Liu Yunniang couldn't help but smile. She chose to leave secretly because she really didn't want to cause more troubles and disputes when she left.

Yesterday she asked Mother Xu to put drugs in the food of the old lady and the guards.

Of course, it’s not poison, it’s just to let them sleep a little longer today so that they don’t come out and cause trouble.

She was well aware of the character of the mother and son of the Ye family, and no longer wanted to have too many quarrels and entanglements.

Just leave quietly.

Inside Chunhui Hall

The early morning sunlight shone through the window lattice and onto Madam Ye’s bed.

She woke up slowly, stretched, and looked at the sun outside the window. It was already very high in the sky. She had indeed gotten up a little late this morning. She yawned and called for Mother Su to come in and serve her.

However, after waiting for a long time, no one came in.

Madam Ye was a little annoyed, and her voice became impatient.

"Mother Su, Xiao Cui, where are all the dead people?"

"Mother Su"

"Xiao Cui"

......

After shouting for a while, there was still no response.

Old Madam Ye was completely furious.

These servants are all ungrateful people who can never be tamed. Oh, when she goes to the capital, she will sell them all!

Old Madam Ye really couldn't hold it in any longer and didn't expect anyone to serve her anymore. She stood up, dressed herself, and limped to the bathroom.

When she came out of the bathroom, she was ready to go out and see what Mother Su was doing.

There is no one to be seen early in the morning. Is it because they all hide away and slack off because she can't move these days?

The moment she stepped out of the room, she was stunned.

The originally bustling mansion was now unusually quiet.

She walked along the corridor. The maids and servants who used to come and go were nowhere to be seen. All she could hear was the sound of her footsteps echoing in the empty courtyard.

She came to the kitchen. Usually at this time, there would be smoke rising from the kitchen, but now the kitchen was empty and deserted.

She came to the garden again, but the flourishing scene of the past was no longer there. Those precious flowers and green plants seemed to have been uprooted. Even her two favorite pots of orchids were gone. At a glance, there was only a barren land.

Old Madam Ye was panicked. Was there a thief?

She staggered towards the main hall.

In the main hall, the tables and chairs were arranged in a mess, and the calligraphy and paintings that were originally hanging on the walls were gone.

She trembled and murmured, "This...what on earth is going on? How come the mansion is empty overnight?"

Suddenly, she remembered Liu Yunniang’s dowry, the storehouse!

Yes, the warehouse. All the valuable things are in the warehouse.

When she walked to the door of the warehouse, she found that the door was open, and she had a bad feeling in her heart.

As she stepped into the warehouse, the scene before her made her stand still for a moment.

The warehouse, which was once filled with boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, silks, and various precious objects, is now empty, with only a few rays of light coming in through the windows, shining on the dusty ground.

Old Madam Ye widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.

Her lips trembled as she murmured, "How...how is this possible? How could this happen?"

She stumbled forward a few steps, as if she couldn't believe her eyes, and fumbled around on the empty shelves with her hands.

Her face turned pale, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her body began to tremble. "My treasure, my property!" She screamed hysterically, her voice full of anger, fear and despair.

Yes, it must have been that bitch Liu who did it. She cannot be forgiven.

Suddenly, she heard hurried footsteps and thought it was Liu, so she rushed out of the warehouse, but it turned out to be the ten guards left behind by her son.

After a night of sound sleep in the Ye family's side room, the morning sun shone lazily on their faces through the window.

They stretched, yawned, and got up sleepily, ready to start a new day of task of "escorting" Old Madam Ye.

When they walked into the yard, they found that the entire Ye family was unusually quiet, without the noise and bustle of the past.

One of them muttered, "Why is the Ye family so quiet today?"

"It's not quiet at all, it's like being robbed, empty, ah..."

They also saw that the Ye family seemed to have been emptied overnight.

Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. They stood there for a long while before they began to look around as if waking up from a dream.

Hearing screams coming from the warehouse, he quickly ran to the backyard.

When the door of the warehouse came into view, they all opened their mouths in shock, stunned.

Is this a warehouse?

Apart from the walls, it is hard to tell what is stored here.

Before they could even enter the room, they saw Old Madam Ye rushing towards them like a madman. They subconsciously dodged and saw Old Madam Ye miss her target and fall far away.

Old Madam Ye collapsed on the ground, slapping the ground with her hands and crying heart-wrenchingly.

Her face was distorted by extreme sadness and anger, and tears flowed like a flood, soaking her clothes.

"Oh my God! What a sin this is!"

Her voice was hoarse and shrill, and every cry seemed to be filled with deep despair and helplessness.

Her hair was disheveled, with a few strands of silver hair trembling in the wind, and her once well-maintained face was now covered with painful wrinkles.

"Liu, you bitch, return my things to me, return my money!"

She cried and beat her chest with her hands, her body shaking with sobs.

.......

"You were fine last night, how come you are like this when you woke up?"

"Could it be that there was a thief? But how could there be such a powerful thief who could empty the entire warehouse overnight?"

"What should we do? I'm afraid we can't complete the mission assigned by the princess!"

"Liu is just a woman, can she really be so capable?"

Princess Pingle's guards were talking to each other in a panic, with beads of sweat on their foreheads. They had no idea how to report this absurd scene to the princess.
