"You little bitch, how dare you come in front of me and show off your power?"

"I want you to look good one day."

When Lu Manqing saw Fang Ling walking away, she spat at the door.

"I have a son and a daughter with me, what should I be afraid of?"

"Isn't it just a little money..."

She said, putting her hand into her sleeve pocket to feel for the banknote.

But it was empty inside. There was nothing.

Her heart was empty, and she shouted,

"Where is my banknote? My banknote is missing..."

"The one who was clearly still there just now must have seen a ghost."

She subconsciously lowered her head and looked for it on the ground.

I was so anxious that I was sweating but found nothing.

She fell weakly to the ground, sweating so anxiously,

"How could it be? How could it be..."

"No, it must be Fang Ling. After she came here, she lost her banknote."

"How could it be such a coincidence? It must be her."

"But she is clearly not close to me. Could it be that she can retrieve objects from afar?"

She murmured to herself, suddenly feeling that her thoughts were ridiculous.

If that damn girl had such great ability, she would have come to tear her apart long ago.

There must be a thief in his garden.

Okay, so brave...

Thinking of this, she immediately got up and dusted herself off.

She summoned all the servants of Yao Yueyuan and knelt in the yard.

Questioned and searched one by one...

Finally, after spending an hour inviting the servants of Yueyuan, no one received at least ten lashes.

But nothing could be found during cross-examination.

Fang Xinyue also knew about the incident.

She dragged her tired body out of bed.

When I was supported by bamboo branches, I walked into the courtyard and saw Aunt Lu holding a whip high to greet a little girl.

"Tell me...did you steal my banknote?"

"If you don't say anything, I'll beat you to death."

The little girl cried loudly and begged for mercy.

"Auntie, please spare me. I didn't see any banknotes. I am wronged."

"Who knows whether I was wronged or not. There are only a few of you in the garden, but one of you will steal mine."

"If you don't want to hurt others, then take the initiative to stand up."

"Otherwise if I find out, I won't show mercy."

Fang Xinyue felt dizzy after seeing this scene.

As soon as his eyes blurred, he was about to faint.

She bit her thin lips desperately to stay awake.

She spoke in a weak voice,

"Auntie, stop."

Aunt Lu was so angry that she didn't even hear her daughter's voice.

Snapped…

Another whip struck the little girl hard.

"Ah...Auntie, please spare my life..."

The servants kneeling on the ground were all trembling with fear.

Although they usually look down on Aunt Lu's style.

But unfortunately, Aunt Lu has a son and a daughter.

The second young lady is about to enter Prince Gong’s Mansion again.

Therefore, I didn't dare to resist Aunt Lu's unreasonable beating.

At this time, the little girl who was whipped saw Fang Xinyue coming.

As if seeing a savior, he hurriedly crawled to her and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Second Miss, please save me. I really didn't steal any money."

Aunt Lu turned around and saw her daughter standing behind her in clothes with a pale face. She couldn't help but feel sad.

"Xinyue, why are you here?"

"Why don't you go back to the house and have a rest? I'm here and I will take care of it."

Fang Xinyue gritted her teeth.

"Can you handle it well? Does this mean you can handle it well?"

Where is the problem being dealt with here?

He clearly offended everyone around him.

Fortunately, Zhuzhi has been waiting by her side.

Otherwise, my aunt would probably have to flog the bamboo branches too, right?

She stepped forward slowly, grabbed the whip from Lu Manqing's hand, and threw it to the ground.

"How can you behave in a way that makes you beat someone up for no reason? If this matter spreads, I will be completely disgraced by you."

Seeing that her daughter was angry, Aunt Lu hurriedly stepped forward to support her and said in a low voice:

"Don't be angry. I just lost the money I had on me. It's not like I beat them for no reason."

"One of them must be the thief."

"The banknotes were lost? How many banknotes were lost?"

Fang Xinyue's heart sank, and a bad premonition came to her.

"Not...not...much."

Lu Manqing answered with a guilty conscience.

"Don't worry about it, just go back to the house and rest."

"One of them must have dirty hands and feet. I can pry their mouths open."

"That's enough, come into the house with me."

Fang Xinyue stroked her chest, angry.

"Yes."

Lu Manqing was usually domineering, but he was always extremely docile in front of his daughter.

Fang Xinyue asked Zhuzhi to take some broken silver and reward it to the servants in the garden as an appeasement.

They also asked people to bring in government doctors to treat their injuries.

Lu Manqing followed Fang Xinyue into the house angrily.

She sat down on the Taishi chair and started complaining.

"Why are you so easy to do to those servants?"

"They must have stolen my banknotes."

"What's wrong with giving them a few whips? You're giving them rewards and asking for government doctors."

"Don't spoil them."

Fang Xinyue had no choice but to suppress the anger in her heart.

"You said they stole your banknotes, do you have any evidence?"

Lu Manqing lowered his head, feeling a little guilty.

"I don't have any evidence, but they are the ones who come and go in this garden. If it weren't for them, how could..."

"You blame the servants without any evidence. Do you think the servants in the mansion don't hate you enough?"

Fang Xinyue struck with a knife, and Lu Manqing was immediately frightened into silence.

"How much money have been lost, why do you need to mobilize so many troops?"

Fang Xinyue looked at Mr. Lu with an angry expression on her face.

Mrs. Lu lowered her head, how could she dare to tell the truth?

"Not much, just a few hundred taels of silver notes."

"With such a little money, how can you offend all the servants in the garden?"

Fang Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, not much money was lost.

She was born as a concubine in the Duke's mansion, and her biological mother was not very bright.

On weekdays, she only has a little money per month.

There will be no more.

Otherwise, my step-grandmother would often subsidize them with some money.

They couldn't even get together the more than ten thousand taels.

So over the years, she has been looking for opportunities to make a comeback.

Although, in the end, she could only enter Prince Gong's mansion to be a concubine.

But it’s still a step forward anyway.

Brother Luo is the future prince, as long as he enters Prince Gong's palace.

Her future is absolutely limitless.

Fang Ling promised to return the shop, and after getting the money, he would not embarrass her again.

He probably wasn't lying to her.

She understood Fang Ling's temperament.

He has always been aloof and doesn't even bother to lie to others.

Seeing that her daughter's expression had softened, Lu Manqing took the opportunity to speak,

"Xinyue, it's all my mother's fault. You rest first, I'll go back now."

Fang Xinyue didn't answer and lay back on the bed, her face full of exhaustion.

Seeing that her daughter didn't say anything else, Lu Manqing rubbed oil on her soles and slipped out.

As soon as she returned to her bedroom, she found a pen and paper and wrote a letter to the person as quickly as possible.

The letter was signed Xiao Jasmine.

After carefully sealing the envelope, she went out in person.

She had to ask that person for help, otherwise her daughter's future would be completely ruined.
