Chapter 124: Your Performance Was Too Much

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After explaining his intentions, Lu Mou led his men to survey the surroundings of Leihua Courtyard.

It was only at this moment that Mo’er realized that Liu Shimei did not allow her to clean up any place last night because of this!

Lu Mou’s people spent two hours carefully looking through the entire Leihua Courtyard, then went to Nanny Li’s room to ask questions and explain the process.

“Lord Lu, 1 happen to have a list of the items in the warehouse that 1 tidied up a few days ago. According to the list, about one-third of the items were stolen. Because I’ve been recuperating outside the ancestral home and haven’t returned, 1 know about this matter. It seemed that such a big theft was carried out over the course of more than one day!”

Liu Shimei asked Mo’er to send the list to Lu Mou.

When they saw the thick list, those who did not know that Liang Ruyi’s dowry was so large were all shocked.

With so much property, losing one-third of it was indeed impossible to move it away in a day!

With such a thing happening in the backyard of the residence, it was naturally impossible for Madam Zhang to be absent. She stood beside Liu Fuyun and said, “Shimei, you insist on saying that you lost something. Do you have any witnesses or evidence? You said that it was stolen, but we can also understand that you created the scene of the theft and tried to frame someone!”

Liu Shimei was not angry and just laughed it off. “Madam’s words seem to have grasped my thoughts clearly. Could it be that the person who stole my property is you? You’ve already thought of an excuse to get away with it, right?”

“Liu Shimei, don’t speak nonsense!” Madam Zhang’s face stiffened. “Don’t say that I’m your stepmother. The Grand Chancellor is here too. There’s also Lord Lu. How can you speak like this?!”

“I’m the victim, If don’t have the right to speak. Who does?” Liu Shimei replied indifferently, her tone calm and without any hint of disobedience.

Not to mention Liu Shimei’s att.i.tude towards Madam Zhang, everyone could tell that the relationship between the stepmother and stepdaughter was not very harmonious just by looking at Madam Zhang’s att.i.tude towards Liu Shimei.

In the past, she had always heard that the Grand Chancellor’s wife and Eldest Miss were kind to their mother and filial to their daughter. Now, it seemed that it was all an act!

Madam Zhang did not know that she had lost something. She looked like she had suffered a great grievance and said with an unbearable expression, “Grand Chancellor, after Shimei got engaged, her wings have hardened. I can’t control her anymore!”

Liu Fuyun’s expression was even uglier than before!

With his understanding of his wife and daughter, it was not difficult to imagine that these stolen properties were most likely planned by Madam Zhang. Otherwise, it was Liu Yan’er!

These little women, they had no foresight at all!

Yesterday, he had lost so many properties in exchange for Liu Shimei’s anger towards Liu Yan’er to subside. In the end, these women were dragging him down behind his back!

As for Madam Zhang, she did not realize that her husband did not like her. She sobbed and said, “It’s said that it’s hard for a stepmother. 1 can understand now. If 1 treat her well, people will suspect that 1 have ulterior motives. If 1 treat her badly, I’ll also be guilty!”

As she spoke, she realized that the surroundings were silent and stopped.

Everyone looked at her.

Liu Shimei could not help but laugh. “Madam, your performance is too much. Don’t you know what you’re doing?”

After Madam Zhang became the wife of the Grand Chancellor and received the t.i.tle of a first-grade imperial edict, she had always held her head high like a peac.o.c.k with its tail open. If she did not have a guilty conscience, why would he act like a b*tch?

Usually, Liu Fuyun would fall for her tricks, but now that he was angry, how could he take it lying down?

“Madam, stop talking and listen to Lord Lu!”

No matter how blind a person was, they could see Liu Fuyun’s displeasure, let alone Madam Zhang, who was leeching off him.

She tactfully shut her mouth.

Liu Shimei turned to Lu Mou and bowed, asking, “Lord Lu, may I ask if you have discovered anything?”
