In this fictional era, please do not do archaeology——
The next day, when Mrs. Liu was dressing up, she found that all her jewelry was missing, so she quickly opened the storeroom to see if her packed luggage was still there.
When she saw the two empty warehouses, she finally couldn't bear it and fainted.
Liu Shuyu and Liu Yuchen also discovered that their yard had been stolen, but before they could confirm how much was lost, they heard someone come to report that Mrs. Liu had fainted.
Liu Shuyu and Liu Yuchen hurried to Mrs. Liu's yard.
Seeing Madam Liu fainted on the ground, Liu Shuyu was extremely anxious. He hurried forward and pinched Madam Liu's philtrum. After a long while, Madam Liu slowly woke up.
Mrs. Liu woke up and started crying as soon as she opened her eyes. "What sin have I committed? My jewelry and my belongings are all gone!"
Liu Yuchen frowned and said calmly, "Mom, don't cry. Let's quickly call the police. I suspect this theft was premeditated."
Liu Shuyu also nodded in agreement, "Then let's report it to the police right away. My yard has also been visited by thieves."
"What? Your things were also stolen? How could this happen? Could it be that the thief has a grudge against the three of us, mother and son? Could it be that my aunt hired someone to do it?" The more Liu Yuchen thought about it, the angrier he became. He clenched his fists tightly and veins bulged on his forehead.
"Your yard was also robbed? How could such a bold thief come from? It must have been the Fourth Aunt and the Fifth Aunt who did it. Could it be that we were discovered to have abandoned them and left Shanghai?" After hearing this, Mrs. Liu's face instantly became extremely gloomy, with anger flashing in her eyes.
"I'm going to go look for my dear first and see what's going on there. When the police come, just tell them the truth."
What Liu Yuchen is more worried about now is the things in his father's hands. These days, his father sold all the factories and shops and exchanged them for a lot of gold and US dollars.
The gold and US dollars he exchanged were all kept in his father's study. If the things in the study were stolen, the Liu family would suffer a heavy loss.
After receiving the news of the theft at home, Liu Zhixiong rushed back to the study as soon as possible. He was relieved when he saw that the seal on the box in the study was still there.
After the police arrived, they searched Liu's house from top to bottom but found no clues.
The sudden appearance of such a sophisticated theft gang in Shanghai also shocked the police, but they could do nothing because the thieves were too powerful and did not leave any clues.
Liu Shuning, who had done a good deed, kept her achievements to herself. She had gained so much last night that she almost forgot about her own important event. She was going to get married tomorrow, so she had to take away the things in the secret room today.
After lunch, Liu Shuning brought Chuntao into the room.
"Chun Tao, go to your wife and get this month's salary and go home! I'm getting married tomorrow, and you don't have to follow me to the countryside to suffer." (After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the indenture contract was abolished. Now the servants in the family only have an employment relationship with the Liu family. In the fictional era, the policy is slightly different from reality.)
"Fifth Miss, did I do something wrong? Can you please not chase me away?"
The work at Liu's house was easy and the monthly salary was high, so Chuntao really didn't want to leave.
She was very worried now. Could it be that the Fifth Miss discovered that she had been helping the Madam?
"Chun Tao, I know you are reluctant to leave the Liu Mansion, but I am getting married tomorrow, and I am marrying to the mountainous area in the northeast. I really can't take you with me. This is my favorite wooden hairpin, so I'll give it to you as a souvenir!"
Liu Shuning inserted a wooden hairpin that had been worn white on Chuntao's head. This hairpin was given to her by Madam Liu on her tenth birthday.
"Thank you, Miss Fifth. I'll go find the madam first." Chuntao was very panicked now. Was she really going to collect her wages and leave the Liu Mansion?
