Ning Ruyan naturally knew Huo's every move, and also guessed that she would definitely touch her dowry. However, she had already replaced all the valuables with fakes, but she didn't know when she took those things to the pawn shop. What will your expression be like when you are thrown out?
And this was verified the next day.

Aunt Yuan and the housekeeper were sent to the pawnshop by the Huo family. As a result, when Aunt Yuan took out a set of gold and jade headsets from Ning Ruyan's dowry, the people at the pawnshop only gave them ten taels of silver after inspection. I got into a quarrel with someone on the spot, and was finally kicked out by the pawnbroker, who said that it was simply covered with gold, and even if the jade was just a jade-like stone, the ten taels of silver was still handmade money.

Aunt Yuan and housekeeper Jiang Cheng suddenly felt their faces were gone. They hurriedly picked up the things and ran back.

"How could this happen? Ning, you actually lied to me?" When Huo heard that the face was fake, she slammed the table angrily, "How dare you?"

Aunt Yuan rolled her eyes out of sight, you dare to steal someone else's dowry, what can they not dare to do?However, the eldest lady was really awesome, she actually changed the things early.

The reason why she didn't suspect that what she brought was fake at the beginning was because when she first got married, she helped count the dowry. She had been with Huo over the years and had seen good things, so she had a sharp eye. She did have her son. She had seen and touched the things in Ning Ruyan’s dowry and knew they were real. Especially at that time, there were two luminous pearls the size of eggs in the dowry. They were rare items. She also knew that they were real. I touched it twice deliberately.

But this time in the warehouse, she also saw the two luminous pearls, but they felt strange. She didn't think much about it at first, but looking at the fake gold-inlaid jade head, she thought that maybe the beads should also be exchanged. Already?

No one could answer Huo's question, and she herself didn't expect anyone to answer. After venting her anger, she got up and went to the warehouse again. This time, she had people open all the boxes and check them one by one.

The final result was simply unacceptable to her, because the items in the dozens of boxes were all fake without exception. Even the cloths were made of silk and satin on the outside. After being torn open, they were all the lowest grade linen. The kind used for making sacks.

As for those calligraphy and paintings, because they are all on scrolls, when you open them, you will find a scroll with not even a single ink dot on it.

The only good thing is that there are two canopy beds and a double screen in the warehouse. Because they are big items, they are real, but they are not made of huanghuali, but made of willow wood, so the price difference is too much.

In short, after final calculation, the things in this house can be worth a total of 300 taels of silver, and this must be able to be sold.

"Ning, are you really..." Huo took two steps back angrily, and then fell straight back.

Aunt Yuan hurriedly stepped forward to support the person, patting her back and rubbing her chest. It took a long time for Huo to recover.

"Go to Wutong Courtyard." Huo turned around and walked out.

At this time, Zisu had climbed over the wall and went back, reporting everything that happened here to Ning Ruyan.

Ning Ruyan didn't react at all, but Banxia and Bai Zhi were happy.

"The eldest lady is still smart. She knew that the old godly woman had no good intentions and changed everything. Otherwise, it would really be an advantage for them."

"That's right, before I thought that the eldest lady was making a fuss out of a molehill, but now I realized that she is really extremely wise."

"Okay, stop flattering, Bai Zhi, shouldn't you go to Dr. Sun's place?" Ning Ruyan rubbed her forehead.

"Yes, but we have our own door. We can save half the time by going here, so we have time." Bai Zhi nodded hurriedly, "Then I'm leaving."

Ning Ruyan pointed to the snacks on the table: "Doctor Sun likes our crabapple cake."

"Okay." Bai Zhi packed the crabapple cake and took it away.As soon as Bai Zhi left, Mrs. Huo had already arrived at the gate of Wutong Courtyard. It was the original gate, but when she saw the gate made of red bricks, she was stunned for a moment. There was no door. How could she find anyone to question her? ?

Jiang Cheng hurried over and opened the small wooden door on the wall. He originally thought that he would be able to see the situation in the yard after opening it, but he found that there were actually bricks inside. This...

"Ning." Huo couldn't help shouting.

But no one answered inside the wall.

"Jiang Cheng, smash this wall down for me." Huo was furious.

Jiang Cheng secretly complained, this was just built yesterday, and it was smashed today?Is this for fun?However, Huo was the mistress of the family and he did not dare to disobey. He could only agree and then ordered the people following to call for help.

At this moment, a little girl ran over. She didn't dare to look for Huo, so she could only wave to Aunt Yuan.

Aunt Yuan hurried over. After hearing what the little girl said, her expression changed and she hurried over and whispered to Huo.

"What?" Huo's expression changed drastically again. She didn't even care about smashing the wall, turned around and left.

Jiang Cheng frowned and hurriedly followed. Let's talk about smashing the wall later.

There was a circle of people surrounding the rockery in the back garden, but two piles of white flesh were exposed in the gap inside the rockery.

"Nonsense." Huo was so angry that she felt dizzy. She might have been angry just now, but this time her resistance was stronger. She didn't faint, but her body swayed a little. "Let's go away."

The servants who were watching hurriedly dispersed, leaving only the masters of the family.

At this time, the two people in the rockery were already fully dressed. They were none other than Jiang Bowen and Xu Yingying.

The two of them knelt on the ground as soon as they came out, and their expressions were not very good. Xu Yingying was even shaking all over, and she didn't know whether it was because she was scared or because she was ashamed of being discovered.

"You two...just..."

"Second Young Master, how could you do this to me?" At this time, Liniang also rushed over, "You said that the eldest young master is in his filial piety period, so he can't entertain, and he has never touched me since he came to Beijing, but in the end, he told me Miss, you are like this... wuwu, my life is so miserable..." But from an angle that others could not see, a coldness flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Bowen clenched his fists and stared, wanting to defend himself, but found that there was no way to defend himself.

"Cousin, my second cousin and I fell in love at first sight, we just couldn't help it." Xu Yingying also started to moan, "I beg my cousin to make it happen."

"Zhengzheng, what Zhengzheng? You shameless person, you are trying to destroy my son." However, Aunt Zhao rushed forward and tore Xu Yingying apart, "The eldest young master has not passed his filial piety. If this spreads out, will my son still need it?" Have you become a human being?" (End of Chapter)
