Chapter 251 The things were lost, who did it?

Gu Zhier returned to the house and discussed with Feng: "Mother, should I go to the backyard and catch a chicken and kill it? I'll cook a good meal for Qing girl. No matter what, we have to convince her. Otherwise, when the third son of the Wang family comes tomorrow morning, I'm afraid there will be another commotion."

Hearing about slaughtering a chicken, Feng's heart ached and she shook her head, "There's only one chicken left at home. I originally planned to keep it for the New Year to sacrifice to our ancestors!

Qing girl is both afraid of death and greedy for wealth and status. Just tell her that you have found a way for the Wang family to send her to a wealthy family as a maid, and she will definitely agree!

Gu Zhier felt a little reluctant and continued to persuade him, "It's just a chicken. I'll send you another one later. Qing girl has grown up in front of you. Now that she is leaving home, just consider it a farewell for her."

"After all, this matter originally had nothing to do with her. We really had no choice but to take her on. Please have some pity on her, let her have a good meal, and send her off in a proper manner. That will put our hearts at ease!"

What are you worried about?

She hasn't done anything wrong, so what is there to be at ease about?

Gu Zhier's words made Feng very unhappy.

She said, "Not long ago, Li Shi and Qing Yatou agreed on something. She said that after the New Year, she would send Qing Yatou to the Cheng family to be a maid! Qing Yatou was very happy about it!"

Recently, I have been applying the ointment given by Li, which is said to nourish the skin and make the skin white and tender!

Now that Li is gone, the Cheng family matter must have fallen through. Now that you have found another way out for her, she can only be grateful!"

"Cheng family? Which Cheng family?" Gu Zhier's face changed. I hope it's not the Cheng family in Bei'an City!

Feng rolled her eyes at her and said, "Which Cheng family are you talking about? Of course, it's the Cheng family in Bei'an City! They even have a queen!

I heard from Mrs. Li that the Cheng family is extremely wealthy, and even the little maids in the mansion are wearing gold and silver!"

Gu Zhier's face turned pale. It really was that Cheng family.

"Mother! The Cheng family...is not very reliable! Now that Li is nowhere to be found, this won't work!"

Feng didn't notice her daughter's abnormality. She was immersed in her own words and sighed.

"Without a matchmaker, a family like ours would have no chance of meeting the Cheng Mansion's steward. Only Li knows the steward there."

It would be fine if he didn't talk about it, but once he did, Gu Liansheng felt very sad.

"What a wonderful thing! It's such a good thing you can't find even with a lantern! I was hoping that after Qing girl came into the Cheng family, she would be able to make a name for herself.

At least we can help our family and make money for us! I didn’t expect that Li suddenly disappeared! I don’t know if Wang Lao San can find her! "

"If we rely solely on the Wang family, I don't think there's much hope. If the Li family helps, we should be able to find it!"

Feng also looked regretful, but since things had come to this point, there was no point in feeling regretful.

Looking at the mother and son like this, Gu Zhier felt cold all over and almost couldn't help but say out what was hidden in her heart.

If her family was tight-lipped, she would probably tell them the truth.

The Cheng family is not a good place to go, it's a place where people are eaten!

But family members know each other, and everyone on her mother's side is a liar.

If she told them about the dirty and rotten things that happened in the Cheng family, she could guarantee that within ten days, everyone in the surrounding villages would hear about it!

If this gets to the ears of the Cheng family's servants, they will definitely report it to the Cheng family's masters, and then they will probably be killed!

Gu Zhier gritted her teeth and kept telling herself in her heart, Don't say it! Don't say it!

When Mr. Gu saw his daughter's face change, he didn't think much about it for a moment. He thought that his wife's disagreement with killing the chicken had annoyed his daughter, so he wanted to ease the atmosphere.

"Daughter, don't listen to your mother's nonsense. Dad has the final say. Go to the backyard and kill a chicken! It's been a while since we've had meat at home, so let's take this opportunity to have a good meal together."

Gu Zhier didn't say anything and shifted her gaze to Feng.

Being humiliated by her husband, Mrs. Feng immediately drooped her face and looked unhappy.

Mr. Gu didn't want to argue with his wife, so he said a few more words to save her face.

"In the past, you were reluctant to even eat meat. Today, I'll take advantage of Qing's incident and let my daughter kill the chicken. Eat more to replenish your body. I'll send you another one later."

These words made Feng's expression soften.

Gu Liansheng also wanted to eat chicken and said directly: "My body hasn't been completely cured yet, and it's time to replenish my body. Unfortunately, there hasn't been any meat at home these days, and my son is craving it!"

Speaking of greed, it was not just Gu Liansheng who was greedy, Feng herself was also very greedy.

When I lived in the inn before, I ate meat for every meal!

I haven't eaten meat since I came back.

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. She hasn't eaten meat for many days. It would be a lie to say that she is not greedy. She is almost going crazy with greed!

Feng pursed her lips and finally waved her hand at her daughter, "Go ahead! Since your father and your elder brother have said so, go and kill the chicken.

Ask Tianbao to come out and help boil water. If you do it alone, how long will it take before we can eat?"

The Gu family didn't know that Gu Tianbao had returned home and left again. They thought that Gu Tianbao was lazing around in the east wing at the moment.

Gu Zhier also thought so. She responded, lifted the curtain and walked out of the main room.

He came to the corridor, rolled up his sleeves, and shouted towards the east wing: "Tianbao! Go to the kitchen and boil a pot of hot water!"

After shouting this, Gu Zhier didn't care whether Gu Tianbao responded or not, and went to the kitchen to get a knife, and then went to the backyard.

After Gu Zhier left, Gu Liansheng also came out of the main room. He thought his son had gone to the kitchen, so he stood in the corridor and called his son towards the kitchen.

"Tianbao! Light up the small stove in the kitchen. Dad will use it to boil water and heat up the wine later!"

Since we are eating meat, we can’t do without wine!

His eyes were fixed on the kitchen door, and Gu Liansheng waited for his son to show his head and answer.

But after waiting for a long time, he neither waited for his son to show up nor waited for his son to reply.

Gu Liansheng immediately became furious and walked towards the kitchen, cursing: "I see you're really itching for trouble! It's only been a few days since I last beat you up, and you're so arrogant and ungrateful!"

The kitchen door was closed. He thought his son had closed it on purpose, so he kicked it open and said, "You little bastard..." The rest of the words got stuck in his throat. The kitchen was actually empty.

His son is not in the kitchen!

Gu Liansheng's rage soared, thinking his son was still angry and hiding in the house, refusing to do his homework.

He turned and went to the east wing, and saw a laundry mallet in the corner. He picked it up with a gloomy face, and vowed to teach his son a lesson!

The room where Gu Tianbao lived was not locked. It was just closed and could be opened with a push.

Gu Liansheng held the hammer in one hand and pushed the door open with the other: "Little beast..." The rest of the words were stuck again!

The room was just like the kitchen, empty!

Now Gu Liansheng was confused. He had just returned, so why was there no one in the house?

Is he running after the second brother again?!

Gu Liansheng couldn't believe his own guess, so he turned around and went to the room where the Gu Qing sisters lived, but still couldn't find anyone.

Not finding anyone here, he went to the room where he lived.

The moment he entered the house, Gu Liansheng froze at the door.

The room was in a mess, with clothes all over the floor and bed!

It was obvious that the whole house had been turned upside down.

No need to think, you are bound to lose something!

After being stunned for a moment, Gu Liansheng quickly understood what was going on and was immediately furious!

"You little bastard! You little bastard! How dare you rummage through my house!"

Gu Liansheng cursed loudly and his whole body was shaking.

Gu Liansheng picked up the clothes on the bed and the floor, and finally realized what he had lost.

The bedding on his bed was gone!

Gu Liansheng:……!!!

He hurriedly opened all the boxes and cabinets in the house, and all the bedding disappeared!

Gu Liansheng could no longer control his temper. He swung the hammer viciously and smashed the boxes and cabinets. Then he went to the main room with a grim face.

"mother!"

The voice arrived before the person arrived. Mrs. Feng and Mr. Gu in the house heard their son's cry and looked at the curtain at the door in confusion.

What's going on?

The next moment, the curtain was lifted forcefully, and Gu Liansheng walked in with his eyes blazing: "That little bastard Tianbao has turned his back on me! He stole all the bedding from my room!"

"What did you say?!" The old couple looked confused, thinking they had misheard. "Why would Tianbao take your bedding? He has plenty of bedding himself!"

"He doesn't need bedding, but someone else does!" Gu Liansheng shouted loudly, with doubts in his heart.

"It must be the second son! When he left home, he must have looked glamorous on the surface, but was actually poor. He must have instigated Tianbao to come to our house and steal our bedding!"

What I said...

The old couple couldn't convince themselves to believe their son's words.

After thinking about it, Mr. Gu simply helped Feng up, let her use her crutches, and went to the east wing together to take a look.

The family of three came to the east wing together and entered the room where Gu Liansheng lived.

After Gu Liansheng vented his anger, the house became even more chaotic, with no space to even step.

This scene really scared the old couple. Seeing the chaos, they thought it was a burglary!

"Mom! Look at the bed and the closet, all the bedding is gone!"

Gu Liansheng casually kicked the things at his feet to make a path for himself, allowing his parents to go forward and look at the boxes and cabinets. The bedding inside was really gone.

The old couple walked up to take a look and became furious.

"This little beast! He's a traitor!" Old Master Gu was so angry that he gasped loudly, and the more he looked at the box, the angrier he became.

"It must have been the second brother who instigated this... No! This must have been done by the second brother and the little bastard!"

Gu Liansheng was still shouting that it was Gu Lianshan who did it, and it was obvious that he wanted to drag Gu Lianshan into the water and put the blame on him.

Old Master Gu also felt that it was his second son who did it. Tianbao didn't have the courage or the intention to do it.

The second brother must be the one behind this!

Listening to the father and son cursing their second son, Feng ignored them and only looked at the mess in the house, and tried to estimate what was lost in the house.

Soon, Feng discovered something wrong.

In addition to the bedding in the house, most of the clothes in the boxes and closets were also gone. All that was left were thin jackets and thin shirts!

As for the cotton and thick clothes she needed right now, she couldn't find any.

"Son! All your winter clothes are gone! They want you to die!"

Feng's face turned pale and she believed what her eldest son said. It was definitely the second son who did it!

Only he can do this!

When Gu Liansheng heard this, his eyes went dark and he quickly ran to the cabinet and searched frantically.

"Mother has looked for it, but there really isn't a single one!" Feng's eyes were red. "That beast, the second son, is so vicious! He clearly wants you dead!"

After taking out all the few clothes in the cabinet, Gu Liansheng stopped in front of a box, looked at the bottom of the box with a hole, and his heart trembled!

"Mom! Come over here with Dad and take a look! See what's at the bottom of this box!"

Hearing what their son said, the old couple hurried over to look into the box.

Looking at the hole in the bottom of the box, Mr. Gu didn't react: "Why is there a hole in it?"

As a woman who loved to hide her private money, Feng knew what was going on at a glance.

She said, "There should be a secret compartment under the hole in the bottom of this box, usually used to hide silver. Now that it's broken, it must have been damaged by the second son when he was looking for silver!"

"Hidden silver?" Gu Liansheng's voice was shrill. "This is Wei's dowry box. Did Wei hide her private silver from me?!"

"Your wife had a mother who loved her dearly! She was always rich, and when she died, she must have secretly given your wife a lot of money!"

Gu Liansheng knew this, and he hurriedly put his finger into the hole, but the secret compartment below was empty, there was nothing in it!

"Second brother!" Gu Liansheng's expression was ferocious. He slammed his hand on the box and cursed with gritted teeth, "That beast not only wants me dead! He even stole the Wei family's money!"

Speaking of Wei, Feng suppressed her anger and used her crutch to move the clothes on the ground a few times, but found that none of Wei's clothes were visible.

"Son, go find Wei's clothes quickly. Why can't I see any of them?"

"Why are you looking for her clothes?" Gu Liansheng became impatient when he heard Wei.

"Why are Wei's clothes gone? Did that kid Tianbao take them? If so, why did he take them away?"

Feng had a bad feeling in her heart. She wondered if Wei had returned...

After hearing this, Gu Liansheng also became suspicious.

He could understand that Tianbao and Lao Er took away his bedding and cotton clothes, but why did they take away Wei's clothes as well?

"Help me look for it too. See if Wei's clothes were put away somewhere else, or if they were really stolen!"

Feng called Mr. Gu over again and asked him to help her son look for it.

The father and son did not refuse and searched very carefully, turning over every place in the house where things could be placed, but they only found a few tattered clothes that Wei had thrown away and did not wear in the past.
