Chapter 73 The Pei Family Was Robberized
At this moment, a maid suddenly came hurriedly to report, but she only whispered in Jiang Xinyue's ear. After hearing this, Jiang Xinyue's face turned pale with fear.
Li Mumu noticed Xie Xun's gaze on her. She cleared her throat uncomfortably and continued to watch the show.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Xinyue looked embarrassed, "Master..."
"Tell me quickly, what happened?" Prefect Pei had lost both his dignity and face, and now he had no patience to listen to her nonsense.
"The warehouse... the warehouse was robbed."
Xie Xun's eyes flashed. It was exactly as he guessed, but he was curious about how the little girl did it?
"What? Where are those people?" Prefect Pei collapsed and walked out.
Gu Lan had already received the divorce papers, and she felt much more relaxed. Li Mumu took her hand and said, "Cousin, you have nothing to do anyway, why don't you go watch a play?"
Gu Lan was not one who liked to join in the fun, but she suddenly felt that the Pei family was bustling with activity and she should go and take a look. However, she looked down at her stomach and felt a little worried.
Li Mumu curled her lips and handed her a pill, "This is a pregnancy-preserving pill. If I had given it to you just now and the doctor noticed something was wrong, things wouldn't be so easy."
Gu Lan said she understood, but she didn't notice the barely perceptible smile on Li Mumu's lips.
A scumbag like Pei Yuanqing still wants to have another child? Dream on!
And that doctor, who uses the name of healing the world but does things that harm people, is really a disgrace to our ancestors. It would be better if such a person does not have descendants who bring disaster to the world.
Li Mumu took Gu Lan's hand and followed him to the warehouse.
The masters of the Pei family were all shocked. No one cared whether Gu Lan stayed or left. Most of the servants didn't know that Gu Lan had no relationship with the Pei family anymore. They still regarded her as the eldest young master's wife and did not dare to stop her.
Looking at the wide-open warehouse door, she could see inside at a glance, and it was empty. She hurried in to open the secret compartment, and found that there was nothing left in the secret compartment.
Jiang Xinyue's eyes went dark and she fainted.
Gu Lan was also wondering what was going on.
Pei Taishou was furious. "Go find the thief for me."
Speaking up at this time would undoubtedly be courting death, but Li Mumu enjoyed the thrill of it. "Ah, it's all gone. My cousin's dowry was lost at your Pei family, so naturally the Pei family is responsible. Since you can't pay it back, let's write an IOU."
The eyes of the prefect Pei seemed to be spitting fire. He looked at the two little guys again. He was doubtful, but where could they move so many things?
The two children simply couldn't do it in a short period of time.
Jiang Xinyue had been woken up by the old woman pinching her Ren Zhong. When she heard that she was asked to write an IOU, her voice cracked, "What IOU? Who knows what else she has in her dowry?"
Li Mumu raised an eyebrow, "I know this."
After saying that, she took out a piece of paper from her bosom. When Gu Lan saw the words on it, his eyes turned red. This was his mother's handwriting, which she had written personally when she was preparing her dowry for him when she got married.
"We'll charge you 100,000 taels for the things above."
"One hundred thousand taels, you are blackmailing me!" Jiang Xinyue said.
Li Mumu raised an eyebrow, "I'm just blackmailing someone, and you're arresting me?"
"I..." Jiang Xinyue completely collapsed. She couldn't fight back, and she couldn't convince him either. She was so angry that her chest hurt.
"Hurry up, if we don't go back, you won't even have the chance to pay back the money." Li Mumu kindly reminded.
Gu Lan also had a blank expression on her face. These should have belonged to her, and she would not give them to the Pei family for nothing.
"Yuan Qing, you go." Prefect Pei didn't want to see these people at the moment. What difference would it make if they signed? These people wouldn't live long.
Li Mumu noticed the cruelty flashing in his eyes, but didn't care at all.
"Gu Lan... I really didn't expect you to be such a person." Pei Yuanqing said.
Gu Lan sneered, "Compared to your Pei family, I'm already good enough. I'm just taking back what belongs to me. Who knows if you're deliberately putting on a show for me?"
Li Mumu raised an eyebrow. "Yes, this is the governor's residence. Who can move so many things quietly?"
Prefect Pei looked at Jiang Xinyue, who quickly shook her head, "It's not me, I really didn't, Master, please believe me."
Li Mumu and Gu Lan looked at each other. They knew very well that even if they exposed Jiang Xinyue, it would be useless. The Pei family cared about their reputation and would definitely protect her. It would be better to let them fight each other. After this incident, Governor Pei would probably never believe Jiang Xinyue again.
Pei Yuanqing still didn't understand, "Gu Lan, I'm so glad that I have nothing to do with you in this life."
"These are also what I want to say to you." Gu Lan curled his lips.
Just as Pei Yuanqing was about to write, Li Mumu shook her head and said, "You can't do that. It should be the signature style of the Patriarch of the Pei family."
After all, Pei Yuanqing will soon be killed by Jiang Xinyue. As the saying goes, when one dies, all debts are settled. Li Mumu doesn't want to let it go so easily.
Prefect Pei was reluctant, but thinking that they would die soon, he pressed his handprint.
Li Mumu put it away with a smile, and handed it to Gu Lan along with the divorce papers. "Cousin, keep it. Mumu will take you home soon."
Gu Lan nodded, "Okay, go home."
After leaving the Pei family's gate, Gu Lan actually felt her stomach feel much better. She looked at her little cousin in surprise. She was really a little miracle doctor.
The Pei family was in chaos at the moment. Li Mumu wanted to watch the show, but she was afraid that Song Qiang would worry.
Sure enough, after all this, they were already late when they arrived at the agreed location.
Song Qiang was extremely anxious, fearing that the two children were lost. "Mumu, where have you been? You scared your aunt to death."
"Second Aunt!" Gu Lan sniffed and opened her mouth with a trembling voice.
"Lan... Lan'er... you're here? Are you feeling well? Is Mumu with you?" Song Qiang excitedly pulled Gu Lan's hand.
Gu Lan wiped her tears and said, "Second Aunt, Mumu came to find me. Let's go back and talk."
"Okay, let's talk about it when we get back." Song Qiang glanced at the little girl, who was such a sensible child. "Everyone in the family is looking forward to seeing you."
Song Qiang held Gu Lan's hand and talked as they walked. Then, after hearing what Gu Lan said, she couldn't hold back her voice and asked, "What? You got divorced?"
Then she cursed the Pei family, "How dare these cruel guys bully you like this."
Xie Xun looked at the smiling little girl, tilted his head, and asked a question that he hadn't figured out for a long time, "How did you get those things away?"
Li Mumu knew she couldn't escape, so she played dumb and said, "Me? I didn't take it away! Didn't you see? I came out empty-handed."
Xie Xun nodded. This was exactly what he couldn't understand, but he absolutely didn't believe that she had nothing to do with the theft of the Pei family's warehouse.
