Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

Nan Xi also took the initiative to put on a sick makeup for herself.

Then he ordered:

Please invite the people outside in.

The ones who came were Zhao Wenxuan, Min Rouer, Yin, Zhang, Zhao Laner and Zhao Yaer.

Yin and Zhang discovered that their room had been robbed early in the morning. Shocked, they naturally wanted to seek an explanation from Min Rouer, the current head of the mansion.

Min Rouer woke up early and found the house empty, even the things in her daughter's room were gone. She immediately went to Zhao Wenxuan crying for comfort.

The group gathered in Zhao Wenxuan's yard. Zhao Wenxuan was actually the first to discover the theft and hadn't slept a wink all night.

After being frightened unconscious by Nan Xi, who was pretending to be Old Madam Zhao, he woke up and found that not only were all his hard-earned fortunes gone, but even his mother's yard had been looted.

Who?

Which thief is so bold? !

He is the grandson-in-law of General Nan, the third place winner of the imperial examination in the Dai Viet Dynasty, and an official of the fifth rank in the imperial court!

Zhao Wenxuan felt dizzy and fainted again. When he woke up, he saw the housekeeper Zhao Fu stumbling towards him and told him that the house was haunted and everything had disappeared.

This time, Zhao Wenxuan held on.

Not dizzy.

He cheered up and decided to lead people to solve the case personally. He must catch and kill the hateful thief and recover the lost things.

But after running around all night, no matter who he asked in the mansion, he came to the same conclusion.

That is, there were indeed eyewitnesses to this incident, and there was more than one witness.

But everyone swore that they saw the ghost of Old Madam Zhao appearing everywhere, and then those things disappeared.

This!

Can this be said?

Zhao Wenxuan wanted to say he didn't believe it, to get angry, to resell the people his mother had just bought. They were all useless!

And the 10 newly purchased guards.

They are all just eaters and are not even as good as a finger of those guards of the Nan family!

But... although this matter was absurd, he couldn't help but believe it.

Because even he saw his mother's ghost clearly.

He had clearly been guarding his mother's coffin.

His dear mother suddenly appeared behind him and patted his shoulder. That strength! That touch! It was real...

and so……

Oh my god, why are you doing this?

Zhao Wenxuan really wanted to cry this time.

He had always been filial to his mother and had never done her any wrong. Could it be that because he hadn't insisted on investigating the cause of his mother's death this time, her ghost was coming to take revenge on him?

But he asked Rouer about this matter privately.

Rouer had explained to him that he believed someone must have stolen Rouer's medicine and poisoned his mother. In this matter, Rouer was also a victim, and he would definitely find the person who stole the medicine and cut him into pieces to avenge his mother.

He had secretly told his mother these words when they were keeping vigil last night.

If his mother really had a spirit, she wouldn't blame him. So why did she do this?

Suddenly, Zhao Wenxuan thought of a possibility.

It is said that money is something you cannot bring with you when you are born and you cannot take with you when you die.

But this may not apply to mothers.

In his early years, the family was always short of money to support him in taking the imperial examinations.

So in the past few years, his mother has increasingly valued money, and even kept the fortune of that stupid woman Nan Xi firmly in her hands. In fact, he has always known all this.

Since that stupid woman Nan Xi married him, her things naturally belonged to the Zhao family, and it was only right that she should use them to honor her mother-in-law, so he agreed.

Could it be...could it be that my mother couldn't bear to part with the money she had worked so hard to get but hadn't spent yet, so she turned into a ghost and took it all away?

Following this possibility, Zhao Wenxuan's spirits were lifted again.

But why did his mother take all his things away?

Before Zhao Wenxuan could figure it out, his uncle, aunt's family, second uncle and aunt's family, and Min Rouer had already entered his yard.

Only then did he realize that all the valuables in their courtyard had disappeared. Even the possessions of Housekeeper Zhao and some of the stewards... In short, anyone with even a little wealth in the mansion had been completely wiped out.

At this point, Zhao Wenxuan had basically determined that it was his mother's ghost who took him away.

I couldn't help but blame my mother in my heart. Is it necessary to shave it so clean?

Forget about others, but at least leave some for your own sons and granddaughters.

But deep down in his heart, he felt that since the things were taken away by his mother, they would be his sooner or later.

So, after comforting everyone, the most urgent issue at the moment was the future expenses of the mansion.

Especially my mother’s funeral.

Now that the mansion has been completely looted, we have to come up with this money first.

After much discussion, everyone decided that they should go and see Nan Xi.

No matter what, Nan Xi was still Zhao Wenxuan's legal wife. She had to contribute to such a big event, no matter what.

So the group went straight to Tingxueyuan.

However, Zhao Wenxuan's uncle, second uncle and other men were not of suitable status, so they had to go their separate ways.
