Chapter 225
After hearing this, Xiaolan confidently said to Lu Mingzhu: "Miss, I have also considered this, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task, so what should I do next?"

Mrs. Lu smiled softly, "Xiaolan, what I'm asking you to do next is not an easy thing."

Xiaolan smiled and said, "No matter how difficult it is, I will do it."

Mrs. Lu gave her an appreciative glance, and asked Lu Mingzhu to hand her a wooden box.

After Xiaolan opened the wooden box, her hands couldn't help shaking.

"Be careful, don't drop it, you won't be able to afford it." Lu Mingzhu warned her.

"Ma'am, what does this mean?" Xiaolan swallowed, she has never seen such a baby in such a big age.

"Stop thinking about it, this is not for you." Mrs. Lu mocked.

After hearing this, Xiaolan quickly waved her hands, "Ma'am, that's not what I meant."

"Go and take these things to the pawn shop." Mrs. Lu said flatly.

"What?!" Xiaolan looked at Mrs. Lu in surprise, "Ma'am, is this something from the Lu family's warehouse?" Xiaolan used to have some contacts with the guard who guarded the warehouse, and the guard once showed her around the warehouse.

"Hey, do you know a lot?" Mrs. Lu's tone was full of warning.

Xiaolan hurriedly lowered her head and apologized, "Don't dare, my wife asked me to do it, I just do it."

"It's good to know. After I finish my work, I will reward you." Mrs. Lu touched the jade bracelet at night.

Xiaolan nodded again and again, "I'll do it now, and I will not disappoint my wife." After she finished speaking, she left Mrs. Lu's room.

Mrs. Lu touched the bracelet on her hand and said, "You idiot, do you really think that I will give her my things?"

"But she's a good fool." Mingzhu smiled, "You can control her with a little trick."

Mrs. Lu nodded, "Who said otherwise?"

Xiaolan quickly followed Mrs. Lu's instructions, dressed as Yun Xi, and appeared in the pawn shop.

"Mom, Xiaolan seems to be back." Lu Mingzhu opened the curtains.

A gleam flashed in Mrs. Lu's eyes, "Ask the people in the warehouse to pass the news of the stolen treasure to Lu Peishun, and then you and I will go find your father together."

Lu Mingzhu nodded, and then went to do the same.

Lu Peishun was furious when he learned the news of the warehouse being stolen from the warehouse guard. Mrs. Lu and Lu Mingzhu arrived just at this time. Mrs. Lu pretended to be worried and asked, "Is there really something missing in the warehouse?"

Lu Peishun nodded heavily, "That's right, what's missing is all precious things!"

"Have you found out who stole it?" Mrs. Lu asked anxiously.

Lu Peishun shook his head, and then yelled at the warehouse guard next to him, "You nonsense! What use are you for?!"

The guards hurriedly bowed their heads and admitted their mistake.

"You," Lu Peishun said, pointing to the butler of Lu's house, "go and call everyone in the yard, I want to investigate one by one."

After hearing this, the butler hurriedly went to inform the ladies and maids in each courtyard.

The people arrived soon, and Lu Peishun sent another group of servants to search the various courtyards, but found nothing.Lu Peishun beat his chest and stamped his feet, "What is this called! Why can't you even look down on something?!"

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him and said, "Don't be angry, it's useless to be angry, don't you see that this person hasn't arrived yet, maybe there will be a clue after he arrives."

Lu Peishun rubbed his brows, "Not yet? Who else hasn't arrived yet."

Mrs. Lu lowered her head in embarrassment, and then gave Lu Mingzhu a compliment.

Lu Mingzhu quickly understood what Mrs. Lu meant, and said in a low voice, "Father, Yun Xi hasn't come yet."

"What?!" Lu Peishun frowned deeply, "Where is she?"

"I heard they went out." Mrs. Lu said in a low voice.

"You mentioned why she is so cautious." Lu Peishun said slightly dissatisfied.

Mrs. Lu and Lu Mingzhu were silent at the same time.

Lu Peishun said angrily: "After Yunxi comes back, let her come to see me immediately!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Lu said to the maid in Yunxi's room: "Did you hear that?! Let her come over as soon as your lady comes back!"

The maidservants nodded quickly.

Yun Xi and Tang Youyou were looking at the house outside. They looked at several streets, but they didn't find a satisfactory house, or they found a satisfactory house but the owner didn't intend to rent it out.

"Yun Xi, I think it would be really hard to find this house if no one helps us." Tang Youyou said wearily, they had already walked through several streets.

Yun Xi stroked the sweat on his forehead and sighed, "Yes, we are looking for a needle in a haystack."

Tang Youyou persuaded: "Then let's go back first, and ask someone to inquire about it tomorrow."

Yun Xi nodded. It is true that if this continues, he will not be able to find out anything, so it is better to go back first.

So Yun Xi and Tang Youyou decided to go back to Lu Mansion first, and then discuss this matter slowly.The two of them felt a little surprised that the guards at the gate of the Lu residence were not there today.

"Why isn't the guard brother here today?" Tang Youyou looked at the door suspiciously.

Yun Xi shook his head, "I don't know, and it seems that the house is very quiet today."

"Did something happen?" Tang Youyou asked worriedly.

"Go ahead and have a look." Yun Xi walked in.

As soon as Yun Xi walked in, she was stopped by a maid who was very anxious when she saw her.

"Miss, you are finally back. Master has been waiting for you for a long time?" The little maid looked at her anxiously.

"Wait for me?" Yun Xi looked at her puzzled.

The little maid nodded, and then she wanted to drag Yun Xi to the hall, "You go to the hall first, and you will know what happened there, Sister Youyou, you also come together."

As soon as Yun Xi and Tang Youyou entered the hall door, they found that everyone's eyes were on themselves, and everyone looked very serious, especially Lu Peishun who was sitting in the center.

Lu Peishun's gaze was fixed on Lu Yunxi's body, "Where did you go?"

Yun Xi thought that she couldn't tell about the fact that she went out to look at the house, so she replied lightly: "I went out with my maid." She nudged Tang Youyou with her mouth.

"Really?" Lu Peishun's tone was a little annoyed.

"Did something happen?" Yun Xi looked at Lu Peishun.

"Several precious things were stolen from the warehouse at home. I investigated everyone, and they all said that they did not take it. And when the things were stolen, they were indeed doing other things in other places."

Yun Xi frowned, what did Lu Peishun mean by these words?
