Hi😉😉
Huang Shi and the maid Yi ling
returned to the Lanshan Yuan and hurriedly asked Yi ling to call Fang mama over.
"Fang Mama," Huang Shi
looked at Fang mama as a savior and grabbed the other's hands and
said anxiously: "It's over! They must have found out!" She was
panicked, and there was a slight trembling in her voice.
Fang mama calmly patted
her: "Third Furen, what's the matter?"
Huang Shi hurriedly said what
she had seen and heard in the Rong'anTang’s Flower Hall, and finally
said in a panic: "Lin Shi has transferred so many items from the
warehouse. But they didn’t choose a fake among it. This must not be a
coincidence. Lin Shi mother and daughter must have found something!”
Although she only exchanged a few
items, they were all very valuable. During that time, they need to observe
mourning for three years and definitely wouldn't need those items. That's why
she became selfish and exchanged a few precious items for some private money.
Sure enough, as she expected, in the past three years, Nangong Mansion has
never hosted any major banquets, so it has smoothly concealed. But didn’t
expect to have today...
Huang Shi the whole person
was panicked at this time, her thoughts were blank, and usual little shrewdness
was gone. She clutched Fang Mama tightly, as if the other party was her
life-saving straw.
"My Third Furen, why are
you panicking? Don't let yourself be confused and let people see some
clue." Fang Mama didn't panic and calmly: "Even if they find
out, they have no evidence!" As she said, she seemed to have thought of
something and beckoned to Yi Ling, "The Second Furen just changed
the decoration of the flower hall, you go to the warehouse to find out which
objects were returned?"
"Yes." Yi Ling hurriedly
retired.
Huang Shi gradually calmed
down, and after careful consideration of what Fang Mama said, she understood
what the other party meant, "Fang Mama, do you think..."
Madam Fang smiled cunningly,
"Wait. We’ll know when Yi ling comes back."
As expected, Yi ling’s work doing
things was agile. Soon after, she came back from outside the courtyard panting,
and handed a note to Huang Shi and Fang Mama.
"Ten Arhats famille rose
overglazed winter melon floor vase! She really found it!"
Huang Shi looked at it and
panicked again, looking at Fang Mama helplessly, but Fang Mama smiled
immediately and said viciously: "Third Furen, this matter came to
this point. It is better we plan ahead a step and report the matter to the old Furen,
and push the matter on Lin Shi's body! "
Huang Shi's pupils shrunk
suddenly, feeling that it was feasible soon nodded slowly, a vicious dark light
flashing in her eyes. She told herself deeply in her heart: Every man for
himself, and the Devil take the hindmost. Lin shi, now that things have
developed to this point, that’s why me, I don't want it either!
She adjusted her clothes and was
about to leave, but she heard the little maid report: "Third Furen, Miss
Third has come to see you!"
Miss Third!? Huang Shi and
Fang Mama looked at each other with surprise in their eyes, and followed
Huang Shi hurriedly: "Invite Miss Third to the main house."
After adjusting her clothes, Huang Shi
and Yi Ling went to the main house to see Nangong Yue.
"Third Shenshen!"
When she saw Huang Shi, Nangong Yue stood up from her armchair in a
panic, and looked at Yi Ling behind Huang Shi with a little hesitation.
"Third Shenshen, can you let Yi Ling retreat first? Yue’er have
something important to tell you."
Huang Shi looked at Nangong
Yue's anxious and panicked face, and she was even more puzzled. Isn't this Yue Jie’er
in the flower hall of Rong'antang just now? Why did she come here
suddenly? Even so, she waved her hand to signal Yi Ling next to her to retreat
first and wanted to see what Nangong Yue was going to say.
Seeing Yi ling retreating, Nangong Yue took a few steps
forward again, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Third Shenshen,
have you been to the warehouse these days?"
Huang Shi's heart jumped and said in her heart: Could
it be that they still want to mess up the water and involve me?......
Fortunately, I have been on guard.
She couldn't help but secretly
smiled and said, "I've been busy looking for theater troupes these days,
but I haven't been to the warehouse. What's the matter?"
"Third Shenshen"
Nangong Yue seemed to be even more panicked, grabbing Huang Shi's sleeve
with a look of helplessness, her small face wrinkled, and she was about to cry,
"This time you must help my mother!"
Huang Shi's heart jumped, and she hurriedly asked, "
Yue Jie’er, what's the wrong with you?" There was a ghost in her
heart, and her tone inevitably revealed a little nervousness.
Nangong Yue didn't miss Huang Shi's
subtle emotions. Since Huang Shi just now specially sent Yi ling to
the warehouse to check, she has basically determined that the exchange of items
in the warehouse is Huang Shi's doing. At this moment, Huang Shi's performance
only makes Nangong Yue more affirmed of her own thoughts. If I look at Huang Shi's
usual behavior, Seeing myself in such a panic, the first reaction must be
gloating, not nervousness and concern!
Although she was sneering in her
heart, she still looked like crying, and she said, "Third Shenshen,
my mother found that several precious items in the warehouse have been stolen
and replaced with fakes. Third Shenshen, What should do then?"
Huang Shi was shocked. Sure
enough, the fact that items had been swapped was revealed. But looking at
Nangong Yue's appearance, she probably didn't find that the items switched were
my work. On the contrary, she wanted to come and beg me to help.
Thinking of this, Huang Shi sighed
slightly. Fortunately she didn't doubt her. Fortunately, it's good...Let's just
say, how could a useless person like Lin Shi find out that the collection has
been swapped by her.
Carefully hiding the rejoice in her
eyes, Huang Shi also pretended to be anxious and said hurriedly:
"Yue Jie’er, are you sure? What should do then! Those collections
are all very valuable. They were accumulated by the ancestors from generation
to generation. Now they are replaced with fakes. This is really disastrous ah!
"
Seeing Huang Shi acting
harder than her, Nangong Yue rolled her eyes secretly, but she looked up with
tears in her eyes: "Third Shenshen, I originally suggested my
mother inform this matter to my grandmother and eldest aunt. But my mother
thinks some of the fakes have already passed through her hands. If it were to
be investigated, she couldn't tell clearly. In the end it was difficult to get
rid of the responsibility. "
Huang Shi was very happy in her
heart, but on the face she pretended to be sad and said: "Yes, what can
do?"
The opposite Nangong Yue wiped her
tears with a kerchief, sucked her nose and said: "Third Shenshen,
so now the only way to turn the fake into real is to expose the matter. My
mother specially asked me to find you Shenshen(aunt) today, hoping that Shenshen
will help to conceal it for a few days. Fortunately, the collections that
have been swapped are not single products. My mother has asked my maternal
uncle to find the identical authentic product, which will be delivered in two
days. Those fakes can be replaced at that time." After a pause, she begged
again, "If Third Shenshen can help with this, then my mother will
definitely give Third Shenshen a huge reward as a gift of thanks."
At this time, Huang Shi in heart
burst into a smile. She didn't expect that Lin Shi not only did not find
that the items were swapped was her work, but also asked her daughter to come
and request her to help conceal it for a few days, and even promised to give a
huge reward as a gift of thanks afterwards.
