"What?" Xia Wanyan looked bewildered, "My dowry? Was it made by a group of bandits?" Otherwise, how could she have stolen all of her dowry.If I had known earlier, her dowry wasn't just ten miles of red makeup, but it was almost the same.

Pay attention to other people's daughters, and the dowry has been saved since childhood.In the beginning, the Xia family and his wife treated Xia Wanyan and Xia Roujia as equals. They were both their daughters, so naturally they didn't make any distinctions.But later, they couldn't help being a little partial.

Because of Xia Wanyan's eyes, she may not be able to marry for the rest of her life, so these dowry may also become her reliance for the rest of her life.Therefore, the Xia family couple couldn't help but favor her a little bit, although not much, because they also had a degree in their hearts.

In fact, not only the Xia family couple, but also Xia Junyan and Xia Roujia's brothers and sisters love this little girl in every way.So they added part of her dowry.This also caused Xia Wanyan to have a lot of dowry. When they left the capital, they could only take the more expensive part with them.

As for other large or less expensive things, they will be delivered later.Especially her Babu bed, which is about to arrive in Suzhou now.But no matter whether it was brought by the first batch or the second batch is about to arrive, the amount of dowry is quite a lot.

So, her so much dowry, which could crush people, was stolen by a robber?Xia Wanyan was confused, isn't this some kind of magical talk?

Lian Chengbi frowned slightly, "Housekeeper, please understand quickly."

"Yes, owner." The steward also found that what he just said was not clear enough, "Madam's dowry has already entered Gusu City this morning, but there was an accident before arriving at the villa. Someone attacked the convoy halfway. And Madam The hair crown in the dowry was stolen, and the person who stole it was the thief Xiao Shishilang."

Xia Wanyan asked: "Hair crown? Which one?" She has many hair crowns, and the housekeeper said that, she really didn't know which one it was.Moreover, if she remembers correctly, the jewelry that she likes more, or that is meaningful or precious, was brought to Wugou Villa in the first batch.

So, the second batch of dowry doesn't seem to have much jewelry, right?

The butler replied, "Reporting to Madam, it was the emerald jade and pearl hair crown that Madam Xia sent later. She said it was given by the emperor, and she gave it to Madam. Madam Xia said before that I don't want you to know that she wanted to give Madam a hair crown." surprise."

"Given it by mother?" Xia Wanyan's face changed, "Or is it a gift from the emperor? Report it to the government immediately. Regardless of whether the person who stole the hair crown is Xiao Shishilang or not, the hair crown must be recovered!"

If it was just a hair crown given by her mother, she would find it back and feel sad because of its loss.But now this hair crown is a gift from the palace, losing it is a crime of disrespect to the royal family.She must find it before Jingzhong knows about it, and then send a post to Jingzhong, asking her father to pass on her letter of apology.

I hope that the emperor is really like what father said, he is a broad-minded and enlightened emperor, and he will not offend the Xia family because of this incident.Otherwise, she really wouldn't die of regret.

The housekeeper hesitated, reporting this Jianghu matter to the officials, isn't it good?

Xia Wanyan's face darkened, "What? My words don't work?"

"Ma'am, forgive me." Although the housekeeper said so, he still cast his eyes on Lian Chengbi.Obviously, he hoped that Lian Chengbi would speak and reject Xia Wanyan's order.

If the government is involved in Jianghu affairs, the reputation of Wugou Villa will not be good in the future.As the steward of Wugou Villa, he should give more consideration to this.

Xia Wanyan, who was just a little angry at first, laughed angrily when she saw the housekeeper like this.She turned her head to look at Lian Chengbi, "Husband, I thought I could be the master of Wugou Villa."

Lian Chengbi nodded, "Of course it's possible, as I said, this is also your Wugou Villa."

"In that case, I think the housekeeper is getting old and unable to do enough, so he should go back and take care of himself." Xia Wanyan said with a smile, her voice was still gentle, but her words were not so gentle. "Just start tomorrow."

The butler's face changed drastically, "Master!"

"Butler," Lian Chengbi looked up at the butler, who had stayed in Wugou Villa for decades, and later betrayed the man in Wugou Villa for his grandson, "Tomorrow you can start to retire and rest, go back and be with him Your grandson."

He didn't blame him, after all, everyone has selfishness, it's nothing that the housekeeper put his grandson on top of Wugou Villa.The reason why Lian Chengbi didn't replace him before was because he didn't think it was necessary, because he was still usable, so he didn't want to bother too much.

But now, it is better for him to leave Wugou Villa.Here, there is no need for a butler to make up for the master.

Speaking of which, in another world, it seems that the butler has never had conflicts with Shen Bijun?Lian Chengbi suddenly thought of this.But it's also true, Shen Bijun has always ignored the internal affairs of Wugou Villa, and the butler is the only one who dominates, so naturally there is no conflict between them.

The butler still wanted to plead for himself, but when he met Shang Lian Chengbi's indifferent eyes, he suddenly fell silent.How could he have forgotten it? Although the owner of the villa is young, he has always had big ideas and cannot allow others to make decisions for him.

The owner of the villa said that his wife is the other owner of the villa, and her orders must be obeyed.It's just that I think I have old qualifications, so I provoked today's incident.

For a moment, the butler seemed to have aged a lot. "Yes, I would like to obey the owner's order." After finishing speaking, he stooped and left, looking very pitiful.

It's just that Xia Wanyan didn't mean to pity him at all, and now she still insists on listening to Lian Chengbi's order, which has nothing to do with her, isn't it also a kind of arrogance?She couldn't afford such an arrogant servant, nor would she know how to use it. "Husband, I want to report to the official."

The most urgent task is not the housekeeper who has been retired, but her hair crown!Although Dad once said that the current emperor is a funny and broad-minded Mingjun, Xia Wanyan still has to treat it with caution.She didn't want her most valued family members to be implicated because of her own reasons.

"Okay." Lian Chengbi nodded, "I'll send someone to report it to the officials. However, if Xiao Shishilang really stole it, the officials may not be able to chase it back."

"That's right, so the officials I want to report to are not only the Gusu Mansion, but also the Shenhou Mansion." Xia Wanyan tilted her head and smiled, "The Gusu Mansion will go to sea to capture documents from thieves, and if that person is really a martial artist High-strength martial arts practitioners, the Shenhou Mansion is also enough to deal with it."

Lian Chengbi nodded, "What you said is very true." Just now, he was actually like a housekeeper, subconsciously thinking that the government should not be involved in this matter.But after thinking about it, what she did was not wrong, on the contrary, it was as it should be.Moreover, her father is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

"Husband," Xia Wanyan still had doubts in her heart, "Do you think it will be Xiao Shishilang? He is a man, why does he want my hair crown?"

"Maybe, someone asked him to steal it." Lian Chengbi smiled, for example, the female monster Feng Siniang next to Xiao Shishilang.
