Stepmother's Adoption Letter

Chapter 98 The Theft (4)
The nanny leaned down on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Don't dare to lie to Madam, the old slave checked it years ago and everything is there. I also counted the number one by one..."

Yuan Lu waved her hand, and asked someone to pour all the things belonging to Sister Xi on the table, and then handed the booklet to her, "Since you said that they are all there, then look for them, are the things circled by the red pen missing? "

The nanny rummaged through the booklet, and after a while, she came up with a few items and said, "This... this amount..."

Yuan Lu looked over and laughed angrily.For example, what was lost was a peacock green jadeite bead chain, and what the nanny found was an ordinary jade chain embroidered with bird shapes... and a red gold dotted emerald necklace was also lost, and what the nanny found was a gold-plated one.

Yuan Lu asked again: "Who ordered this for you?"

The nanny wiped the sweat from her forehead, "This old slave has poor eyesight, I watched them order things before my eyes."

Having said all this, the two mothers and the four maidservants were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, trembling.

Yuan Lu called her mother-in-law to take the cane, dragged the six people out and beat them.It turned out that although the nanny had some skills, she didn't know how to tell the difference. The two mothers gradually became more courageous and started doing such a thing together with the four maids.

What is even more unknown is that the four maids were all related to the two mothers, and they came in through their relationship.Because the two mothers had been with sister Xi's mother, the nanny never had any doubts, and she didn't bother to check their details when she said that she wanted to choose a few maids to come in.

After a beating, Yuan Lu ordered people to remove all the jewelry and silver from these people, and they were driven out of Duke Cheng's mansion just like that.

This can be regarded as saving face for the deceased sister Xi's mother. What these people did is that it is not an exaggeration to beat them up and sell them off. It is only because the two mothers are old people who followed her mother that they just kicked them out.

Sister Xi originally wanted to plead, but seeing her grandmother's ugly face, she opened her mouth several times without saying a word.

The nanny was fined for three months for the crime of negligence.The old lady was very angry, but in the end she was worried about sister Xi and didn't drive the nanny out of her room.

Sister Xi's eyes widened, her face pale, like a frightened deer.

Seeing that she couldn't bear it, Yuan Lu let her go back first.

After she left, the old lady slapped the table angrily: "My real grandmother can't compare to a nanny beside her!"

Knowing the old lady's childish temper, Yuan Lu coaxed her: "She is still young, she was frightened just now, she said something wrong, why do you, a grandmother, know as much as her?"

Nanny Sun also chimed in: "Sister is always by your side, why don't you know how much you love her?"

The old lady said angrily: "Even if she grew up by my side, she couldn't teach her to kiss me! Those who don't know think how I treat her so harshly!"

"Don't be angry, left and right are just a little thing, which is the fault of the servant, and now it has been dealt with. Why are you angry?"

The old lady couldn't calm down, and scolded her together: "It's a shame that you are still the head of the house, and this family has taught you what it is like! Even the children's house will have such a thing, this time it is stealing something, next time it will not I know what kind of crime I am going to do!"

"You're right, it's all my fault." Yuan Lu has no temper at all, looking at her is like looking at a vexatious child.

The old lady felt as if she had punched the cotton with a punch, and she said with more enthusiasm: "I'm getting old, and if things go wrong in the house, it's all your fault!"

Yuan Lu suppressed a smile, and said softly: "It's all on me, calm down. I'm going to find a few good ones for my sister and keep them by my side. You have to give me a chance to pay off my merits."

The old lady waved her away: "Go, go, don't stay upset in front of me."

Yuan Lu blessed her body and left with someone.
