Reborn and married to uncle, husband and wife teamed up to abuse scum.

Manager Wei Chun's words made Tang Rong's face turn pale. If it was true, it would mean that the theft of his biological mother's dowry had made his already tight wallet even worse.

"I'll leave this matter to you to investigate. I'll give you two days."

At this moment, he already had a suspect in his mind. His mother's dowry was in Wang's hands in previous years, and he knew how much was spent.

Later, when he arrived at Chunrongyuan, only Tao Yiran and he had contact with the key, but he knew Tao Yiran's character and it was impossible for her to steal the key, so the first person to suspect was Aunt Cai.

But he did not interrogate Aunt Cai immediately. He pretended that nothing had happened and just waited for Manager Wei Chun to investigate the matter thoroughly before making any further decisions.

"Tell Cai Quan about this."

Xin An teased Rouqiu without even raising his head, but felt a little regretful in his heart. She had been planning to use Aunt Cai's move for two days, but it was discovered by Tang Rong's people first, which made Aunt Cai's role much smaller, and it did not cause any serious harm to Tang Rong. As long as he cried and cried to the poor old lady, she would definitely compensate him some, and Tang Gang would not just sit there and do nothing.

Maybe the compensation you get in the end will be more valuable than what you lost, and you can even make a profit from it.

Pity.

Manager Wei Chun quickly found out that Cai Quan was the one involved. Cai Quan, who got the news, ran away first, taking his son and lover with him, and disappeared without a trace.

He took away all the money before running away, but Aunt Cai didn't notice it at all. After Tang Rong opened the warehouse, she took the initiative to approach him, ready to blame Wang if anything happened.

Several large boxes were carried into the yard and opened one by one. Some of the boxes were only half full of items, some contained items that looked worthless, and there were even empty boxes.

The moment the box was opened, Tao Yiran was shocked. "What's inside?"

Aunt Cai was even more exaggerated. She exclaimed at first, then stepped forward to take a closer look, "These are not the madam's dowry. Oh my God, what happened?"

"Every item of Madam's dowry was carefully selected by the master and the old lady. They were all exquisite things. How come they were all replaced with these?"

"Sir, these things are not right. The dowry of the previous wife has been kept by the current wife all these years. Did the wife make a mistake while being busy?"

Tao Yiran, who was unaware of the inside story, became suspicious of Wang after hearing her guidance. It was not uncommon for a second wife to control the dowry of the previous wife and replace it with other things or directly embezzle the money. She felt that Wang would not be an exception.

I thought Tang Rong would be led by the nose, but he just looked at the boxes coldly and said, "I opened and inspected these boxes myself when they arrived. Each box is filled to the brim with gold, silver and jade, all of which are top quality."

"Aunt Cai, Aunt Liu, you two are the aunts in charge of Chunhuayuan. Tell me what's going on?"

Aunt Cai was filled with astonishment. No one knew better than her how much was originally put in these boxes and what was in them. Why did the prince say that?

Aunt Liu spoke first, "Since the prince saw it with his own eyes, it can only mean that there is a thief in Chunhua Courtyard. The keys to the boxes were originally kept by the young lady, but the young lady never touched the boxes, let alone opened them to check. Later, the prince was in charge of the keys, and he placed the keys in the study, so it could only be someone who could enter and leave the study at will. It would be easy to get them."

"It's not easy to take so many items out of the courtyard. The thief might have taken them out bit by bit."

At this point, everyone's eyes fell on Aunt Cai. Aunt Cai was panicked and knelt down hurriedly, "Your Highness, please be wise. I have followed you for many years. Have I ever betrayed you?"

"I haven't touched these boxes."

Tang Rong didn't say much, he just asked Qing Mo to fetch the person, and soon the tied up Cai Shun was brought in.

Cai Shun had already left the city, but he was worried about the courtesan he had been keeping for some time, so he wanted to go back and take the courtesan with him. However, he was caught by Wei Chun's men as soon as he returned, and after a severe torture, Cai Shun confessed everything.

He had fallen in love with the top prostitute in the brothel some time ago. In order to win the favor of the beauty, he pretended to be a rich young man, with silks, satins, gold, jade and fine wine. It didn't take long for him to spend all his money. Then, he was bewitched by the beauty and soon borrowed money at high interest. Then, he couldn't stop and had to ask Aunt Cai for help, so Aunt Cai took out several boxes more and more frequently...

The whole theft case was not difficult at all. The truth came out. Aunt Cai looked dejected, and Tang Rong's face was even more ashen. Wei Chun arrived a step too late, and Cai Quan escaped.

"Prince, Prince, please forgive me for the many years I have served you."

It took Aunt Cai a long time to find her voice again. She cried and kowtowed, "My Lord, you have been deceived. There are not so many things in this box. The things inside are not that valuable. They have been replaced long ago."

What she said was true, but Tang Rong wanted to take this opportunity to settle the accounts. He knew exactly how much stuff was in the box, and he also understood where the original stuff had been spent. But knowing it was one thing, but it would not sound good if it got out.

The Wei family was not wealthy. Because their daughter was marrying into a marquis's mansion, they scraped together a decent dowry. To be honest, the dowry was not particularly valuable, especially after spending it over the past few years. Apart from a few good things, the rest were just to make up the number.

He had to take this opportunity to replenish his wallet.

It’s a pity that Cai Quan ran away, causing him to suffer a loss.

"My mother is so kind. She kept these things in good condition and handed them to me intact. It has only been a short time and you have stolen them, leaving only a few of them."

"You not only don't know your fault, but you also want to bite your mother. I can't let you stay."

Tang Rong's eyes were cold. He should let Aunt Cai play her greatest role.

Aunt Liu took the opportunity to beat the fallen dog, "Aunt Cai, you'd better explain in detail. The prince has seen all the items in the box with his own eyes. Is it possible that the prince can lie?"

"At this time, you still want to turn the tables and frame the prince. You have such a vicious heart."

Aunt Cai was now truly speechless and didn't understand why the prince lied. Cai Shun also kowtowed and begged for mercy, but unfortunately he knew nothing about what Cai Quan had done, so Tang Rong saw no value in him.

"Lock him in the woodshed and report to the government, saying that there is a rebellious slave in the mansion, and ask the government to help track him down."

"Count these boxes and search the Cai family's house."

Aunt Cai and Cai Shun were gagged and dragged away. Tao Yiran looked at the boxes and felt disappointed again. "Can those pawned items be recovered?"

She had not been interested in these things before, but now she had lost interest in this man. If she didn't have some money in her hands, what would be the point of life?
