"A thief?" Qin's mother's heart skipped a beat. "I've lived in this area for decades, and I've never heard of anyone losing anything during the New Year."
Auntie interjected, "What are you two missing?"
"I came to ask you as soon as I became suspicious. I didn't have time to check carefully."
Qin Yanci appeared at this moment, his eyes flickering between Qin's mother and aunt. If they had also been robbed, they would not have been unaware. He said seriously, "There is only a piece of ash from burnt incense left in our room. I slept for more than ten hours."
Maybe because I was in pain the last time I left, I felt exhausted when I came back this time.
Went to bed early.
Mother Qin was immediately horrified: "Incense? Where is it?"
"I've already received it. I'll give it to Dad." Qin Yanci walked towards the main house.
Qin's mother didn't care about the work in her hands and followed behind. After entering the house, she checked everywhere and found that the cash, passbook and jewelry were all there.
She found Lu Yue and told her about this: "Yan Ci said that someone had lit aphrodisiac in the house last night. There might have been a burglar. Did you lose anything in your house?"
Lu Yuechun's expression remained calm, but her arms tightened around the child. She feigned surprise and said, "Drugged? Is that true? Nothing should be missing from my room. Let me check." She pretended to open a drawer and pull out a box, confirming, "Mom, nothing is missing! Did Yan Ci lose anything?"
"I'll ask him." Mother Qin walked out of Lu Yuechun's room and called out, "Yan Ci, Yan Ci"
The first to arrive was Ying Sisi.
Qin Yanci slowly opened the door of the study and walked out with Qin Yanjun.
Mother Qin said, "Yanci, your sister-in-law and I haven't lost anything, what are you missing?"
"Five hundred yuan in cash, and a watch and necklace for Si Si."
Ying Sisi was confused. Five hundred yuan short?
She subconsciously touched her coat pocket.
His wallet is still with her, with only twenty dollars in it.
Also, when did he buy her a watch or necklace?
He had mentioned it before, but she had rejected it.
A pair of gold bracelets would be enough for her.
She weighed it and it was nearly 60 grams. At the gold shop's price of 13.9 yuan per gram, she had over 800 yuan on her wrist.
How can I ask for his gift again?
"Five hundred yuan?!" Mother Qin felt a pang of pain. "Oh, why didn't you keep all that money? How much are the watch and necklace?"
"It adds up to two hundred." Qin Yanci said in a low voice, holding his head, looking weak.
But my mind is constantly working.
Lu Yuechun was stunned and immediately realized Qin Yanci's purpose.
If he doesn't live in a courtyard house, why would he put so much money in the wing room?
It's obvious that she's planning to make some money from her parents-in-law.
So cunning!
All the blood in her body rushed to her head in an instant.
"We're all living in the main house, so how could you be living in the side rooms without any shortage? Are you deliberately putting this on, trying to get Mom and Dad to give you some extra money to get by? If you don't have money, just say so directly. Is this really necessary?"
Ying Sisi was the first one who didn't want to listen: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean? We who live in the side rooms are even suspected of being thieves, right? You actually said we staged it ourselves. I said you were involved in this matter. After all, you are the only one in the family who has a grudge against us. You might have been the one who put the incense there."
At this point, she had an idea: "I know there's a dog training center in town. Let's borrow a dog from there and have it sniff the drug first, then let it find the place on its own."
Lu Yuechun panicked. Should he lead the dog to look for her? Wouldn't that expose him?
