Chapter 195 What crazy things are you talking about?
Several servants hurried over to support him, saying repeatedly, "Master! You must take care of yourself!"
Zhao Kui clutched his chest, almost choking. His lips were purple, and his hands were trembling as he said, "Quick! Go find someone! Go, catch the bandits!"
"But can you bear this?" The housekeeper who had donated his clothes pulled a piece of cloth from somewhere to cover his body. With one hand, he covered his vital parts with the cloth while supporting Zhao Kui with the other. He said with a worried look on his face, "How about we ask a doctor to come and take a look first?"
"Don't worry about me, just call someone to catch the thief!" Zhao Kui pushed the housekeeper away, anxiously found the key from the secret compartment, and went to check the warehouse.
That was the wealth he had accumulated over most of his life!
But the result is predictable.
Jiang Tangtang didn't even let go of the tables, chairs and benches in his house, so how could he let go of her warehouse?
After looking at the last warehouse in the mansion, Zhao Kui spat out a mouthful of blood and fell straight down.
"master……"
"grown ups!!"
"Hurry, hurry, call a doctor!"
There was chaos in the Zhao Mansion, and at this moment, the situation in the Song Mansion was not much better.
Jiang Tangtang would naturally not let go of General Song, the despicable and shameless man who had always wanted to kill them and colluded with Zhao Kui to scheme against her property.
Jiang Tangtang was absolutely unambiguous about the Song family.
Even the rare and exotic trees in the Song Mansion garden were moved away.
General Song was a filial son. He would bring in all the flowers and plants that Old Madam Song liked, and all the medicinal herbs that were beneficial to her health, and keep them in his mansion.
There are three gardeners in the Song Mansion who specialize in growing flowers and plants for Old Madam Song to enjoy.
The garden not only grows precious flower varieties such as Weizi Yaohuang, peony, black orchid, and Jianlan, but also rare medicinal herbs such as Dendrobium officinale, which can be used for both ornamental and medicinal purposes.
The ginkgo tree in Mrs. Song's yard is more than a hundred years old.
It can be said that Mrs. Song’s courtyard is like a modern botanical garden, with a quiet environment and many endangered plant species.
Jiang Tangtang showed no mercy and transplanted all of these into the space.
So, the first sound in the Song Mansion that day was the screams of the maids and servants, "Old Madam, Old Madam..."
The maidservants crawled and rolled towards Old Madam Song's room as if they had seen a ghost, "Oh no, oh no, that's outside—"
Several people were like roosters with their necks strangled, with their mouths wide open and eyes wide open, looking at the scene in the room in disbelief.
The room that was once extremely luxurious was now empty, with only the old lady's huge step-out bed left.
"What's all the fussing about so early in the morning? Are there any rules?" the night watchwoman started to curse. Suddenly, she realized something was wrong. Why was she lying on the ground? When she took a closer look at the scene in the room, she, like the other servants, was almost shocked.
At this moment, Old Madam Song was also awakened by the noise. She didn't know what had happened yet, so she called the maid over to help her up before asking, "What's the commotion?"
"Madam, it's bad, there's a thief in the mansion!" the servants said in unison.
Old Madam Song looked at the scene in the room and her face instantly became serious. She looked at the servants fiercely and said, "Which rascal did this? Tell the truth, or I'll skin you alive."
Everyone knelt down quickly and said, "Old lady, this is none of our business! We didn't do anything! When we woke up this morning, we found that all the trees outside were gone."
Someone gestured and said, "Such a big hole. The tree looks like it was uprooted. It's such a big tree, and we didn't hear any wind at night."
"And, the flowers in the garden are gone, leaving it bare..."
"The cold pond stone by the pond is also missing. Even ten strong men couldn't move that stone! Unless someone has supernatural powers, how could they carry such a huge stone?"
…
Everyone was talking non-stop, and Old Lady Song was almost staggering. She barely managed to steady herself, "Qiuyue, help me out and take a look! I've lived for most of my life and have never heard of such a strange thing. I don't believe it today!"
She spoke with gritted teeth, her face full of anger, as if she had already concluded that these were all tricks played by the servants.
But in fact, I was scared to death.
Hearing about those strange and magical powers, the first thing she thought of was the rumors about the Xiang Mansion.
At that time, she was smiling happily, saying that Magistrate Xiang had done a lot of bad things and deserved his misfortune.
If Magistrate Xiang were in trouble, it would also be good for her son.
Unexpectedly...
No, it must be those daring slaves who want to embezzle her good things.
Old Lady Song kept comforting herself in her heart, but when she arrived at the garden and saw the scenery, she could no longer use these words to comfort herself.
Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
"The old lady has fainted, go and get a doctor, no, no, no, go get the master!" Qiuyue shouted loudly, not caring about the surprised scene in the yard.
But at this moment, General Song, a filial son, had no time to care about Old Madam Song. The private vault was robbed, and the documents and military orders in the study disappeared without a trace. This was too terrible.
There were many important documents and account books in the study. Just these things alone could cost the lives of everyone in the mansion. There were also military tokens, and so much wealth in his private vault...
Although he didn't vomit blood and faint like Zhao Kui, he was also greatly shocked. It took him a long time to recover. He called his confidant over and said, "Quick, check for me. Are there any unusual people or things happening in the city these past two days? Also, find out what Lu Shiyan and his wife are doing. Find out everything for me."
It must be that couple's doing, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence? He and Zhao Kui had just arrested the people in her workshop, and then something happened to him.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He immediately said, "Send someone to the Zhao family and have them keep an eye on the people in the Lu family workshop."
After a short while, the men hurried back and said, "Sir, something has happened to the Zhao family. Just like us, their house has been robbed. They couldn't bear the shock and fainted. Now everyone in their house is in chaos."
General Song's face darkened. He was about to curse when another servant came hurriedly to report, "Sir, it's bad. The doctor said the old lady had a stroke..."
"What did you say?" General Song shouted angrily, "How did you take care of me?"
The servant hunched his neck and said, "The doctor said it was due to excessive shock... The century-old trees and the cold pond stones in the yard are all gone... The old lady was frightened and fell ill. There's nothing we can do about it. I don't know how she became like that!"
When General Song woke up in the morning, he found that the furnishings in the room were missing, so he hurried to check the study and warehouse, and had no time to go to the old lady's yard.
Just now, when the servant came to report that Old Madam Song had fainted, he didn't have the patience to listen, and the servant was sent away without saying a word.
This was the first time he heard about the situation in Madam Song's courtyard. He had a ridiculous smile on his face, "What kind of crazy talk are you talking about?"
"If you don't believe me, go to the old lady's yard and you'll know."
To be honest, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that he would see such a scene in his lifetime.
