Huang Ningxiang put the bag inside.
"There are some household items in there for girls. There are too many things in the store to store them, so I packed them up and prepared to put them at home."
She stared at Wei Youqing with a probing look.
Wei Youqing thought that girls' things were all very complicated, so he didn't care.
He asked again: "Then why do you want to see me?"
Huang Ningxiang's brows darkened. "My second brother came to my shop earlier and asked me some questions about your wife. After he left, I felt uneasy and wanted to talk to you about it. I was worried that he would do something outrageous to your wife."
After saying this, she calmed down.
Wei Youqing's face darkened: "Your second brother kidnapped Jinshu."
Huang Ningxiang pretended to be surprised, her eyes widening: "General, did my second brother really do such a stupid thing?"
Wei Youqing remained silent, which meant he agreed.
Huang Ningxiang asked anxiously, "Then how will the General deal with my second brother?"
Wei Youqing: "According to the law, he should be executed."
Huang Ningxiang frowned slightly: "My second brother actually dared to kidnap the general's wife, his crime is unforgivable!"
Wei Youqing stared at Huang Ningxiang, his brows furrowed. "Do you think your second brother deserves to die?"
Huang Ningxiang sighed and said, "He is my brother after all. How could I bear to see him die? But his crimes are heinous."
Wei Youqing looked at the door: "Are you still going out?"
Huang Ningxiang shook her head: "I'm not going out. I'll open the door right away."
At this moment, a noble lady in luxurious clothes came over, probably to buy spices.
Huang Ningxiang quickly opened the door and welcomed the lady in. After putting the bag in her hand into the cabinet, she patiently introduced the spices to the lady.
Wei Youqing stood outside, looking at Huang Ningxiang in the shop, talking and laughing with the noble lady, as if Huang Bingliang, who was sentenced to death according to the law, had nothing to do with her.
This made him feel confused.
He turned and left.
Normally he would say hello to Huang Ningxiang before leaving, but this time he just left.
After Huang Ningxiang and other noble ladies bought five strings of coins worth of spices and left, they went outside to look for Wei Youqing, only to find that he was gone.
But Huang Ningxiang didn't care too much.
Her heart was in great turmoil at this moment.
She closed the shop door, locked it, and took her bag from the cupboard.
Her bag was filled with the money and jewelry she had accumulated over the years.
In addition to the money she earned, most of these properties were given by Wei Youqing.
Whenever she cried poor to Wei Youqing, saying that all the money earned from the store was taken away by her father and brother, and that it would be difficult to maintain the business of the incense shop in the future and she would have no money to purchase goods, Wei Youqing would always give her some money and usually give her some jewelry.
It was true that her father and two brothers often took money from her shop, but her spice business was highly profitable, so she would save half of the net profit from each business and hide it to prevent it from being squandered by her father and two brothers.
She buried all these valuables under the warehouse of the incense shop and no one knew about them.
As for her second brother kidnapping Yu Jinshu, it was her idea.
Wei Youqing said that he would divorce Yu Jinshu in the future, but she secretly went to the gate of the general's mansion to see Yu Jinshu two days ago and found that Yu Jinshu looked very familiar.
It doesn’t matter that she looks familiar. What matters is that Yu Jinshu is so beautiful. With her looks and figure, any man would be fascinated by her.
Wei Youqing told her to wait until he could find a way to get her father and two brothers to sign a letter of severance for her.
This made her very scared, fearing that Wei Youqing would investigate his father and two brothers in detail.
If Wei Youqing finds out something, then all the things she did in the past will be exposed.
The only solution now was to let Yu Jinshu die quickly, and then she could ask her father and two brothers to sign a letter of severance with her.
In this way, Wei Youqing would definitely marry her into the general's mansion, and then she would be able to be the wife of the young general peacefully.
When her second brother kidnapped Yu Jinshu today, she was watching in the dark. Unexpectedly, her luck was so bad that her second brother was bitten by a dog, which attracted Wei Youqing.
She was worried that her second brother would betray her, so she immediately hired a car to return to the incense shop, took out all her money from the underground, and planned to run away.
But as soon as he reached the door, he ran into Wei Youqing.
Fortunately, from her inquiry into Wei Youqing's tone, her second brother did not betray her. She must have borne it all alone.
Second brother still has some conscience, otherwise she would have skinned him alive and pulled out his tendons in the underworld.
But she still has to be cautious next time. What if her second brother can't stand the beating in prison and still gives her away? Then she will be finished.
Thinking of this, she felt a little flustered again.
Wei Youqing returned to the government office at this moment, and Cheng Shu stayed in the government office jail to continue interrogating Huang Bingliang, investigating two matters.
The first one was to clearly state how much money Huang Bingliang had taken from Huang Jixiang Shop and when he had taken it.
The second case is the three cases three years ago.
The first case had just been tried, and Huang Bingliang simply said he didn't remember the second case, and many things he described were vague.
When Cheng Shu saw Wei Youqing coming, he handed him the interrogation record of the first incident.
Wei Youqing asked Cheng Shu to interrogate this matter just to vent his anger for An Ning, but when he saw what was written in the interrogation record, he found that many of them were inconsistent with what An Ning usually told him.
"I will not investigate the second case for now. I will investigate the first case again. If the number is correct, I will tell him that I will check with An Ning. If the number is wrong, then the beheading will be changed to lingchi 3,000 cuts."
Cheng Shu went to re-interrogate Huang Bingliang. Huang Bingliang was very sure that most of these numbers were correct. The only occasional times when he couldn't remember clearly was because he was drunk.
Wei Youqing held the transcript and became suspicious of An Ning.
Huang Bingliang couldn't and didn't need to lie about this amount of money.
Why would Aning lie to him?
"Shu Cheng, bring An Ning's father and eldest brother here. We'll re-investigate the three murders from three years ago and interrogate them. And then, we'll interrogate them about the amount of money they took from An Ning."
After Cheng Shu agreed, he immediately took the guards to the casino to arrest the person.
Huang Sheng and Huang Xiaoguan, father and son, still don't know that Huang Bingliang has kidnapped Yu Jinshu.
They saw Huang Bingliang who had been badly beaten in prison.
Cheng Shu asked the jailer to put them on the rack. Before the whip was even hit, they told the whole story about how much money they had taken from Huang Ningxiang.
Wei Youqing looked at it and found that there was still a big difference.
This reminded him of the bundle he had seen in front of the incense shop earlier.
The crisp sound he heard at that time was very much like the sound of gold and silver colliding.
What he cared about was not the money, but the fact that Aning was cheating on him.
Cheating him out of his money?
Cheating people out of money is extremely despicable.
In his heart, Aning has always been a very simple and kind girl. How could she do such a despicable thing?
Cheng Shu began to interrogate the three cases from three years ago, one by one.
But their statements were consistent and flawless.
It seems that the three cases three years ago had nothing to do with the Huang family, and the connection between the deceased and the Huang family was just a coincidence.
But it's such a coincidence.
Wei Youqing returned to the south courtyard of the General's Mansion late at night.
The prison was dirty, so Wei Youqing took a shower before entering the bedroom.
