Chapter 523 A thief in the courtyard

Qiu Shui heard that the young lady's dowry had been lost, so she quickly called Qingfeng in the "Guardian" to her.

Qingfeng knew that something had been lost in the yard and looked shocked: "Mrs. Young lady, you can be sure that no one from outside comes in our yard."

"I will deal with this matter. Don't make any noise for now, so as not to alarm the snake." Mingruo lit his exquisite wings with his fingertips and asked it to sprinkle some scale powder for easy tracking in the warehouse.

Although those dowry came in vain, they were their own things when they came to their own hands.

Although Mingruo is not rare, he cannot tolerate others not accepting it.

"Since you lost something like this now, it means there is something wrong in some places." Qingfeng blamed himself for not protecting the yard. "Go to buy a few more guards to guard the warehouse, what do the young lady think?"

Mingruo was also very upset about theft in the yard: "You prepare the person first, but don't bring it now, everything will be kept as it is."

Although Qingfeng understood what the young lady meant, he was afraid that the thing would be lost again, but he still couldn't catch anyone: "But..."

"Continue to guard the yard, I have my own arrangements in the warehouse." Mingruo casually fiddled with the Yanfeng bracelet on his wrist.

"Yes." Qingfeng took the order and left.

Xiuju also took a pair of pearl heads from the warehouse and locked the warehouse.

Xiuju put the beads on the young lady's bun and said, "Before moving the dowry to the warehouse, I checked it carefully. There was no secret message inside. The door and lock of the warehouse were also fine. How did this thief get in?"

"You will know when you catch someone." With Linglong and cute little, as long as the thief dares to attack, he will definitely not be able to escape.

Seeing that the young lady was so calm, Xiuju and Qiushui were much calmer, and they were dressing up the young lady quickly.

Si Haochen didn't say anything just now. After Qiu Shui and Xiu Ju retreated, he came to Ming Ruo: "This thief came just right. After catching it, try to make a big fuss."

Mingruo blinked his big eyes and smiled terrified: "What do you want to do?"

"Insert some of our people into the yard." Si Haochen helped Ming Ruo rectify the pearls falling on his forehead. "Suddenly 'buying people' can easily arouse the suspicion of other people in the Beigong family. Theft in the yard is a good reason."

"Okay, I understand." Mingruo thought to explain to Linglong, and not to poison the person to death with excitement. They could convince others.

There is a house banquet today, and relatives and friends who are close to each other will come here early. Si Haochen and Mingruo have to clean up and go to the main courtyard to help guests.

Mingruo was afraid that he would meet Mrs. Helian, and he didn't know if Helian Jue had made any arrangements. He would not let him get it wrong later.

Facts have proved that Mingruo's concerns were unnecessary. Mrs. Helian did not come. The Helian family came today. It was Helian Jue.

Helian Jue first went to the old lady of Beigong to invite him. At this time, Si Haochen was Helian Jue's sister-in-law, so Si Haochen naturally came to receive him.

Si Haochen took Helian Jue to the front for tea.

The old lady Beigong saw Ming Ruo sitting there obediently, and said to her with a smile: "There are many young girls coming to the mansion today. You can play with them, don't be with me."

Mingruo actually wants to stay by the old lady and be a quiet beauty.

However, as soon as Mrs. Beigong said this, Beigong Shishi, the daughter of the second wife of Beigong, was born.

In order to please my grandmother, I held Mingruo's arm very affectionately: "Sister-in-law, let's go to see my second brother and the others' poetry meeting."

"The people who attended the poetry meeting are all the young masters, so it's not good for us to go there." Mingruo refused in his heart and verbally.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, let's stay in Qingque Pavilion and you can see what's doing in the pavilion below, not getting close to it." Although Beigong Shishi's movements were intimate, her tone was a little contemptuous - although her eldest sister-in-law was good-looking, she grew up from the Western Frontier. She was not only petty, but also looked like she had never seen the world.

Mingruo was also speechless. Since he looked down on himself, he still had to pretend to be intimate.

Are you from Theatre Academy? You like to pretend so much...

Beigong Shishi took Mingruo to Qingque Pavilion, where several ladies were already there, all of whom were dressed in fragrant clothes and cloudy hair, looking very noble.

However, even among the four major families, the Beigong family was a top student. When several people saw Beigong Shishi, they greeted each other with diligence and warmth.

Beigong Shishi introduced to them: "This is my eldest sister-in-law."

Several ladies also politely greeted Mingruo, and Mingruo also greeted him one by one. The eyes of several people looked at Mingruo, and some were contemptuous - some were pity.

Mingruo didn't find it strange, their reaction was normal. After all, in the eyes of these people, he married a fool.

Beigong Shishi looks average and almost all the shortcomings of Beigong Er Master and Second Lady.

Therefore, seeing Mingruo's beautiful colors is inevitable, I can't help but be jealous.

These ladies in Qingque Pavilion are all her close friends and are also the most noble girls in Yunling City.

She just wanted to let "Helian Yaohua" know that she was good-looking and could please her grandmother. She just had a foothold in the Beigong family. She wanted to integrate into the aristocratic family circle in Yunling City, but she was still far from it.

"Shishi, your clothes are so beautiful today. Where did you buy the material?" A young lady asked with Beigong Shishi's sleeve.

"My uncle brought the fabric from Jincheng, but we don't have it in Yunling City." Beigong Shishi replied with a smile.

"Shishi, I heard that Aunt Beigong wants to see you today. Which family is the young master of the family? We will also help you see..." said another lady.

"Sister Qin, let me say it again, I won't agree!" Beigong Shishi played with the lady who was joking her.

Mingruo is a transparent person and soon realized the purpose of Beigong Shishi bringing her here.

However, she did not feel confused or inferior as Beigong Shishi expected. Instead, she sat by the window and ate snacks leisurely.

Beigong Shishi looked at Mingruo while playing. Seeing Mingruo like this, she felt that she was not even able to get on the table - she was isolated, how big is her experience to eat snacks. (Mingruo rolled her eyes: Do you think I want to take care of you?)

"Miss." Beigong Shishi's personal maid came up from downstairs. "The second young master knew that all the ladies were sitting in Qingque Pavilion, so he specially sent the title of today's poetry meeting. Please ask all the ladies to write poems together."

"Who doesn't know that Shishi writes poems but is the best in Yunling City. We are not good at showing off our skills." A young lady from a noble family came out and chatted with Beigong Shishi.

"Sister Wan is accustomed to making fun of people." Beigong Shishi looked at Mingruo with a smile, "I won't do it today, let my sister-in-law come!"
