古代闺秀被强高H

" Mother, what happened?" Wang Yu rushed inside the courtyard with her husband, she looked at her dishevelled mother who was sitting on the floor and asked in a hurried voice, "What\'s going on? Why are you sitting on the floor like this mother?"

Old Madam Wang did not say anything, instead, she continued to cry. She cried so much that the entire house couldn\'t help but tremble under the intensity of her cries.

"What\'s the matter!?" Tired of the screams of her mother, Wang Yu could only increase the pitch of her voice only then did Old Madam Wang stop crying and looked at her with a hateful glare.

" What is the matter? We are ruined!" Old Madam Wang pointed to her hidden locker room and then said, " All the money that I saved in the safe is gone, not even a single tael is left behind. You tell me, what am I supposed to do?"

Wang Yu was stunned when she heard that the money she had given to Old Madam Wang was gone. In her hurry, she did not even care about her mother who was sitting on the floor and rushed to the safe where the wooden trunks were indeed empty. Forget about a gold tael, the thief even wiped the dust inside the trunk clean! It was so clean that Wang Yu could see her face in the trunk!

" Where did the money go!?" She roared at her mother, those fifteen thousand golden taels were her hard-earned money which was why she handed it all to her mother. But now that money was gone! How were they going to survive ?!

" Why are you screaming at me?!" Old Madam Wang was also quite angry, she had gotten used to living a life of comfort and luxury but now the money was gone. Without any money how was she going to survive?

She glared at her daughter and screamed, " Do you think I wanted this to happen!? I am just as confused and panicked as you!"

Wang Yu was furious but Lin Yuanshan stopped her from speaking, instead, he pulled her sleeves and stopped Wang Yu from getting angry at Old Madam Wang. As much as the old woman was biased, she was still the head of the family and held a bunch of things under her name if she was offended by Wang Yu then they would have to wish their inheritance goodbye.

Seeing that her husband was asking her to speak anymore, Wang Yu calmed down. She looked at her mother and then calmly asked,  " Mother remember carefully, did you move the money from the safe? How can fifteen thousand golden taels just vanish in thin air?"

Old Madam Wang also did not know what happened, the key of the safe was with her obviously and she was the only one who knew that the safe of her courtyard was hidden behind the portrait of her ancestors.

Without her or anyone from the Wang family leaking out the secret no one would be able to find the location of the safe and even if they did it would be impossible for them to open it without her knowing because she slept with the key of the safe inside her clothes!

So if a thief tried to steal something from their family, it was impossible for her to not sense anything!

"… I didn\'t hide the money anywhere.." Old Madam Wang trailed off and she could see that her response only made Wang Yu furious. Seeing that Wang Yu was taking out her anger on her, Old Madam Wang pursed her lips and then said, " Why are you getting angry at me? Instead of glaring at me take a look at the other storehouses. We need to make sure that the money is with us and not with anyone else!"

Only then did Wang Yu snap out of her daze and rushed out of the courtyard, she wanted to check up on the storehouse that was inside Wang Shi\'s courtyard as long as that storehouse was untouched, she would be able to get past this obstacle with her family.

However, as soon as Wang Yu rushed inside the courtyard, she found it empty what was more even the documents of her fraudulent actions were gone. This time she truly panicked, she was only a fifth-ranking official and had accepted a lot of bribes from changing the materials of the water dam at the Northern state to the supplies that were sent at the time of the flood to the Big River Village.

She thought that she had only taken a small chunk out of the supplies and no one would notice it before selling them at a high price to the officials who were in need.

But now those documents were gone!

This came out as a bolt out of the blue, it scared Wang Yu so much that her legs trembled. She knew very well that the last magistrate who was in charge of the town was now gone and all the evidence against her was futile while Magistrate Li was someone who would drag her to hell if she was to get her hands on those documents.

Even Wang Yu\'s husband Ye Cheng was alarmed he looked at his wife and then whispered, " Don\'t tell me that Wang Shi said something to the magistrate?"

Because Old Madam Wang was highly narrow-minded she only cared about Wang Shi and no one else. Even though there was clearly a pit in Wang Shi\'s head, Old Madam Wang said that she would only give the Wang family inheritance to Wang Shi. This was the reason why only Wang Shi knew where the documents and money were hidden!

When Wang Yu heard her husband\'s words her heart jumped. She knew that Wang Shi was a straightforward woman, if she saw that she was suffering she will drag others down with her as well!

Just as she was thinking about what to do the sound of a door banging open echoed in the surroundings causing her heart to jump to her throat.
