After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

In the west room, the old lady's face was gloomy.

"You're going to rebel, but you dare to report to the official!" She slammed the table angrily.

Liu Yunxiang pretended to be puzzled, "I lost something, so of course I have to report it to the official. Why is my mother so angry?"

"You... our Hou family is holding its tail between its legs now, for fear of being seen by the emperor, but you don't stop. This is going to harm everyone in the Hou family!"

"The emperor can't punish us just because we reported something missing in our house. What's the point? Besides, the emperor manages world affairs, so how could he notice this little thief in our house?"

"Let me tell you something, tell me something, is there any daughter-in-law who contradicts her mother-in-law like you?"

Liu Yunxiang said aggrievedly: "I am just discussing the matter. Where does mother's anger come from?"

"I don't care what you lost, just find a reason to send the officials from Jingzhao Mansion away."

"That won't work. I only have what little I have left to care for myself. I lost it all last night. I feel so heartbroken."

"I've rummaged through several pieces of rags and found nothing valuable. What do you feel sorry for?"

Liu Yunxiang hesitated for a moment, "How does mother know what is in my warehouse?"

The old lady looked blank, "I guessed it."

Liu Yunxiang lowered his eyes and smiled, "The officials of Jingzhao Mansion are not vegetarians. Unless they are master thieves, they will definitely be able to find some clues. Otherwise, go to the pawn shop and ask, maybe you can pawn the money in urgent need."

This time, the old lady couldn't hold herself any longer.

"Okay, it was a misunderstanding. I asked the butler to go to your warehouse to get some things last night, so I didn't tell you."

Liu Yunxiang's eyes widened, "Mother stole it?"

"When you bring your dowry to the Marquis' Mansion, it belongs to the Marquis' Mansion. If I take something from the Marquis' Mansion, how can I call it stealing?"

Liu Yunxiang pretended to be aggrieved and said: "What mother said is that I will go and tell the officials in Jingzhao Mansion right away. It will be a waste of trouble for them to go all the way. I secretly pried open the courtyard door of the second room in the middle of the night and took it away quietly." The people who keep the things in my warehouse are people sent by the old lady, not thieves from outside."

"you!"

"I'm going right now."

"Stop, if you tell them like this, you are ruining my reputation!"

"Why did I ruin my mother's reputation? Did I say anything wrong?"

The old lady gritted her teeth angrily, but she also saw that Liu Yunxiang did it on purpose. In the past, she obeyed her words and showed great respect, but now she treats her like a needle and doesn't suffer at all.

"I'll ask the butler to redeem those things of yours and return them to you."

"Actually, those pieces of cloth are nothing. There is just a jewelry box with a few southern beads, two jade bracelets, two gold hairpins, and a string of seven treasures."

"There's no jewelry box, don't talk nonsense!" the old lady said with wide eyes.

"Hey, they didn't tell you, maybe they were greedy?"

"you!"

"How about letting the authorities investigate."

The old lady almost lost her temper. She was blackmailed by Liu Yunxiang, and she was still hard to explain.

"Okay, I'll supply it to you!"

The old lady winked at Yulian and asked her to go inside to get the jewelry.

Liu Yunxiang took a look at what Yulian brought over and found that they were all worthless things.

She pushed the tray and made her attitude clear, don't try to fool her.

The old lady had no choice now, so she had to let Yulian take Liu Yunxiang to choose.

When Yulian opened the old lady's large wooden box containing jewelry and looked at the dazzling array of jewelry, Liu Yunxiang was still surprised.

She knew that the old lady was hiding something secret, but she didn't know that she was hiding so much.

The funny thing is that she thought that the Hou Mansion had been emptied, so she took out all her dowry and confiscated it to support the whole family. She was really stupid.

In this case, Liu Yunxiang was not polite and picked out several valuable ones.

The old lady was so angry, especially when she saw the ones she took away, that she almost fainted.

Liu Yunxiang returned to the third room, took out a piece of silver and gave it to the chief official, invited them to drink, and sent them away without saying anything.

Then she gave all the jewelry to Jin Yan and asked her to pawn it all.

After she finished speaking, she saw Jin Yan standing aside with her eyes red from crying.

"what happened?"

"Madam, please stop planning and save your own life first."

Liu Yunxiang pulled Jin Yan over and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid of dying with my eyes closed."

God gave her a new life, not to make her live as miserable as in her previous life, but to seek justice for herself.

So even at the last moment, she will fight for herself.

Jin Yan hugged Liu Yunxiang and cried: "Madam, who poisoned you so cruelly, not only taking your life but also the life of the fetus in your belly?"

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, "Although I'm not sure who poisoned me, I can be sure where I was poisoned."

"where?"

"Lanyuan."
