The number one sweet wife: Young marshal, hold on!

Chapter 226 tit for tat
Seeing that Yun Xi didn't speak, Lu Peishun thought she was guilty, so he asked in a strong tone: "What the hell did you do out there?!"

Yun Xi glanced at Lu Peishun angrily. She knew that she had been framed, and someone wanted to blame her for this matter. Yun Xi looked at Mrs. Lu who was gloating, and knew that she had fallen into her trap.

Yun Xi cleared her voice, and said with a more emphatic tone: "I didn't take anything from the Lu family, I just went out with my maid to go shopping in the market."

Lu Peishun's face softened slightly, "Is it true that you didn't take it?"

Yun Xi stared at Lu Peishun generously, "When have you ever seen me take things from the Lu family?"

Lu Peishun found it very unpleasant when Yun Xi talked about Lu's family.

Seeing that Lu Peishun seemed to have relaxed her investigation of Yun Xi, Mrs. Lu quickly said, "Master, don't get angry, although Yun Xi is the only one not around at this time, you can't just assume she is a criminal.

Yun Xi sneered, and Mrs. Lu went to remind Lu Peishun that she was the only one here at this time.

Just as Yun Xi was confronting them, a servant ran in and said he had something to report.

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Lu asked.

The servant glanced at Yun Xi and hesitated, not knowing whether to say it or not.

Seeing the dodging expression of the servant, Lu Peishun became angry instantly, and he said impatiently, "What the hell is going on?!"

"The little one doesn't know what to say or not to say." The servant said tremblingly.

Lu Peishun slapped the coffee table hard, "Is there anything you shouldn't say in front of me? Say it quickly!"

The servant was obviously frightened by Lu Peishun, and he quickly told Lu Peishun the information he had learned, "Master, when I was investigating this matter outside, I found that the treasures in the Lu family's warehouse were sent to the pawn shop gone."

"What?!" Lu Peishun slammed the table again.

The servant remained silent, just bowed his head.

"Do you know who pawned it?" Lu Peishun asked again.

The servant shook his head, "The little one doesn't know."

When Lu Peishun learned of the whereabouts of the treasure, his heart felt more at ease, and he was not as impatient as before. He waved his hand and said solemnly, "Go and bring that pawnbroker here immediately."

The servant nodded, and scrambled to find the pawnshop owner.

Mrs. Lu stroked Lu Peishun's chest, as if helping him to calm down his anger, "Don't be angry anymore, there are no clues here."

Lu Peishun sighed deeply, "I don't know who took it."

"Is this obvious? Whoever wasn't around at that time was the murderer." Mrs. Lu said lightly. After she finished speaking, she pretended to be innocent and said to Yun Xi apologetically, "Yun Xi, I'm not the one." I mean, I'm not talking about you."

Yun Xi sneered.Lu Peishun looked at Yun Xi, but said nothing.

The owner of the pawnshop was quickly brought over.

"Master Lu, long time no see." The pawnshop owner greeted Lu Peishun politely.

Lu Peishun nodded in response, and then asked: "Boss, did someone bring a bunch of gold and silver treasures to your place today?"

The pawnshop owner looked at him in surprise, "How do you know?"

Lu Peishun sneered, "Because it belongs to my Lu family."

The boss looked suddenly enlightened, and clapped his hands in praise, "No wonder those things are so good, I haven't seen such good things in all the years I've been in the pawn shop."

"I didn't come to hear you praise me." Lu Peishun said coldly.

"Then what can I do for Master Lu?" The boss looked at him with bright eyes.

Lu Peishun looked at him with disdain for seeing money, and felt contemptuous in his heart, "Those things were stolen and then pawned by that thief. Now I want you to recognize that thief."

After hearing this, the pawn shop owner looked a little hesitant.

Lu Peishun knew what he was thinking, and said: "I know what you mean, don't worry, I will give you exactly what you paid, and if you help me, I will treat you as a benefactor of the Lu family. "

The pawnshop owner thought about it in his heart, seeing Lu Peishun like this, he must be dead.

He looked around at the ladies and maidservants standing around, and then set his eyes on Yun Xi.

Yun Xi looked at him coldly, knowing that the incident had started, she was ready in her heart.

"Did you find anything?" Mrs. Lu asked tentatively.

The pawn shop owner nodded, pointed at Yun Xi and said, "This is the girl who came to my pawn shop to pawn those treasures."

Mrs. Lu suddenly said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about?! This is our young lady, how could she steal something?"

The pawn shop owner was frightened and quickly explained: "It is indeed this girl. I remember it clearly. I dare not hide it from Master Lu."

If the words just now were not enough to convince Lu Peishun, then the words now are enough to convince him that Yun Xi is the prisoner.

"Master, even if Yun Xi does something like that, you can't punish her." Mrs. Lu looked like she was expecting her, and those who didn't know thought Yun Xi was her own daughter.

Yun Xi and Tang Youyou both felt very sick to their stomachs when they saw Mrs. Lu's performance.

After hearing what the pawnshop owner said, Lu Peishun was furious. He stared at Yun Xi and asked, "Is what he said true?"

Yun Xi replied calmly: "I don't know if what he said is true, but I can be sure that I didn't do such a thing."

"Miss, how can you not admit it? If you do it, you do it." The pawnshop owner beside him was anxious.

Yun Xi looked at him lightly and said, "Did you see her face clearly at that time?"

Hearing this, the pawnshop owner couldn't help hesitating a bit. At that time, his attention was all on the pile of treasures, and he really didn't look carefully at the person's face.

Mrs. Lu saw that the owner of the pawn shop was hesitant, for fear of revealing the truth, she asked again: "When did that person go to your pawn shop."

The pawn shop owner pondered for a while, and said, "It's probably around two o'clock in the afternoon."

"She happened to go out with her maid at one o'clock." Lu Mingzhu pointed to Yun Xi.

Yun Xi frowned slightly, and Tang Youyou looked at her worriedly. Now that all the evidence points to her, it may be really difficult to remove the suspicion.

"Is it really you?" Lu Peishun asked again.

Yun Xi shook his head and explained: "It's not me. You all said that the treasure was taken from the warehouse, but I don't even know where the warehouse is, let alone get the key to the warehouse."

Lu Peishun felt that what Yun Xi said made sense.

Seeing that Lu Peishun seemed to be persuaded by Yun Xi, Lu Mingzhu hurriedly said, "Father, don't you think that since she came to the Lu family, many bad things have happened in our Lu family?"
