By reading my mind, I defeated the crazy regent

"This is a huge matter. When my father comes, you must tell him the truth. Don't hide anything."

The housekeeper nodded hurriedly, breaking out in a cold sweat.

It's such a huge amount of money. If you really doubt him or make things difficult for him, he will never be able to pay it back in his lifetime.

The butler watched Tang Yingying's carriage leave respectfully, then his legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground.

The servant quickly helped the butler up and asked cautiously, "Butler, what happened?"

The housekeeper's expression was grim: "Don't ask."

The servant immediately stopped asking.

The housekeeper hurried back to the house, but before he could even enter the yard, he saw the servant he had recently hired rushing towards him.

For some reason, the butler felt a pang in his heart.

"What happened to Wangcai?"

Wangcai chopped peppers anxiously: "Uncle housekeeper, your room was turned upside down by a woman. Was it robbed? Go back and see what's missing."

The housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, that person just now was the eldest lady."

Wangcai was stunned: "Ah? That's the eldest lady? Why does she look... so ordinary?"

The housekeeper sighed: "The eldest lady should have just been released from prison. I heard a few days ago that she was arrested again."

Wangcai was stunned again: "Ah? Again? Is the eldest lady always arrested?"

The housekeeper nodded with a wry smile: "I don't know what's going on with the Tang family lately, there are always problems."

Wangcai scratched his head: "Since it's the young lady, then I'm worrying too much, but why did the young lady take your money?"

The housekeeper was stunned, his expression filled with confusion. "What did you say? The young lady took my money? How did you know?"

Wangcai said innocently, "I was just watering the flowers in your yard. I was in the backyard when I heard some noise and thought you were back. I looked out the window and saw that woman... Miss, rummaging through your box."

"She took out a lot of banknotes and small change. I watched her put them all into her pockets and take them away."

"Just now I didn't know you were in the front yard, so I rushed over to chase you, but I saw you walking with her. I thought it was someone you knew, so I didn't dare say anything."

"broken."

When the housekeeper heard this, his heart immediately turned cold. He slapped his thigh and ran back.

I ran into the room and saw the mess on the floor, and everything went dark before my eyes.

He didn't care about anything else and anxiously went to check the box where he hid his money. Sure enough, it was empty.

"It's over! My money, my life savings, is gone just like that."

Wangcai chased in and saw the housekeeper crying, and immediately became angry.

"Uncle housekeeper, don't cry. I'll help you get the money back."

He bared his arms and rolled up his sleeves as he was about to chase after them.

The housekeeper hurriedly shouted: "Wangcai come back!"

Wangcai turned around angrily and said, "Uncle housekeeper, why did you ask me to come back? We have to catch up quickly, otherwise you will lose all your savings in this life."

The housekeeper had a splitting headache. He felt sorry for his money, didn't dare to offend the eldest lady, and couldn't explain it to this simple and somewhat silly child.

"Anyway, don't go. You won't come back."

Wangcai didn't believe it and said stubbornly, "How can I not get it back? I will definitely get the money back for you. No one can bully the housekeeper."

The housekeeper finally felt a little comforted.

He had been alone and helpless all his life, without a wife or children. In his old age, he unexpectedly met such a simple and foolish girl.

Some time ago, by chance, he met Wangcai who was being bullied. He just helped him out, but he didn't expect that within a few days, Wangcai would save his life.

This can also be considered a cycle of cause and effect.

The housekeeper then took in the innocent Wangcai into his home, hoping that this orphan would keep him, an old man, company.

Now seeing the child being wholeheartedly devoted to him, the housekeeper was very touched.

"I know you're a good child, but you can't go. That's the eldest lady. This entire mansion belongs to her, and we're her servants. How can a servant ask the eldest lady for money?"

Wangcai didn't understand, so he insisted on his point.

"I'm not her servant, I'm the uncle steward's godson. She took your money, and I'm going to help you get it back."

The butler was even more moved.

"Good boy, don't go. You are still a free man, but I can't protect myself now."

"The money that the young lady hid is lost. Only she and I have the key. Now I am in a mess and can't wash it clean. I can only hope for the best."

"Don't get close to her, or she'll give you a hard time."

"The eldest lady was probably angry because so much of her money had disappeared, so she took the money I had earned to deliberately retaliate against me and make me feel bad."

"Forget it, forget it. I am a slave after all. So let it be."

The housekeeper felt that the money would never be recovered, and even though he felt sad, he didn't have the courage to mention it to the eldest lady.

Wangcai roared, "Why let it go? It's not the housekeeper's fault that her money was lost. Why should he be made to feel bad?"

"Don't worry about me, I'm going to find her!"

Wangcai was like a young fool and rushed out without caring about anything.

The housekeeper was horrified, fearing that Wangcai would anger Tang Yingying, and hurried to chase him.

But he was old and frail, so there was no way he could catch up with the young and strong Wangcai. When he reached the door, Wangcai had already disappeared.

The housekeeper stamped his feet anxiously: "It's over, it's all over now, this silly kid must not find the young lady."

Of course Wangcai was able to find the eldest lady. He came to the Regent's Palace and met his master directly.

"Master, I'm here to tell you something."

When Wangcai saw Tang Qiansui, he no longer looked silly and stupid as he did in front of the housekeeper, but became extremely smart.

Tang Qiansui smiled when she saw him: "Did Tang Yingying go back? Did she find that the money in the warehouse was missing?"

Wangcai is the Wangcai beside Song Yulin.

Tang Qiansui had secretly placed Wangcai in Tang Yingying's mansion.

This is a kind of mentality. She emptied the treasure house that Tang Yingying had carefully hidden. If she couldn't immediately know Tang Yingying's reaction after discovering this, Tang Qiansui would always feel a little uncomfortable.

So Wangcai appeared in that mansion and acted as her ear.

Wangcai said with admiration: "Master is wise, Master is extremely smart."

"Stop flattering me and tell me quickly, what was Tang Yingying's reaction?"

Tang Qiansui couldn't wait any longer.

Wangcai said with a grin, "Tang Yingying was so angry she was screaming and blaming the housekeeper, insisting that the housekeeper had stolen the money."

"She even searched the housekeeper's room and stole the housekeeper's coffin."

Tang Qiansui was stunned: "Why would she steal the housekeeper's money? Besides, it's too unethical. That's the housekeeper's coffin money."

Wangcai laughed and said, "That's right, the housekeeper said that maybe her own money was missing, so she wanted the housekeeper's money to disappear as well. She was taking revenge on the housekeeper."
