Huang and her maid, Yiling, returned to the Lanshan Courtyard, and hurriedly asked Yiling to call Nanny Fang over.
"Nurse Fang," Mrs. Huang hurriedly said as if she had seen a savior when she saw Nanny Fang. trembling.
Nanny Fang patted her reassuringly, "Third Madam, what's going on?"
Mrs. Huang hastily told what she saw and heard in the flower hall of Rong'an Hall just now, and finally said in panic: "Mrs. Lin transferred so many items from the warehouse, but she failed to pick a fake one. It must not be a coincidence. Mrs. Lin The mother and daughter must have discovered something!"
Although there were only a few items in the collection that she exchanged at the beginning, they were all of high value. Back then, she thought that she would be obliged to observe mourning for three years, and she would definitely not need those items. money. Sure enough, as she expected, in the past three years, Nangong Mansion has never hosted any major banquets, so it has been successfully concealed until now. But I don't want to have today...
At this time, Huang's whole body panicked, her thoughts went blank, and her usual shrewdness was gone. She held Nanny Fang tightly, as if she was her life-saving straw.
"My third wife, why are you panicking! Don't let others see the clues." Fang Nanny was not in a hurry, "Even if they find out, they have no evidence!" , She seemed to have thought of something, and waved to Yi Ling, "Didn't the second lady just re-decorate the flower hall, go to the warehouse and find out what items were returned before?"
"Yes." Yi Ling hurriedly took orders and retreated.
Gradually, Huang calmed down, thought over Nanny Fang's words carefully, and then understood what the other party meant, "Nurse Fang, do you think..."
Nanny Fang smiled cunningly, "I'll find out when Yiling comes back."
As expected, Yiling handled things neatly, and after a while, he came back from the courtyard a little out of breath, and handed a note to Mrs. Huang and Nanny Fang.
"Ten Arhats Pastel Overglaze Winter Melon Floor-to-ceiling Vase! Sure enough, she found it!"
When Huang saw it, she panicked again, and looked at Nanny Fang at a loss, but Nanny Fang smiled immediately, and said viciously: "Third Madam, the matter has come to an end, why don't we make plans and take the matter one step ahead, and put this matter to rest?" Report it to the old lady, and put the whole matter on Mrs. Lin!"
Huang's pupils shrank suddenly, but he also felt that it was feasible, so he nodded slowly, with a vicious dark light shining in his eyes. She told herself heavily in her heart: people don't kill themselves, Lin, now that things have developed to this point, I can't blame me, and I don't want to!
She straightened her clothes and was about to leave when she heard the report from the little maid: "Third Madam, Third Miss is here to see you!"
Third Miss!? Mrs. Huang and Nanny Fang looked at each other, with doubts in their eyes, followed Mrs. Huang and hurriedly said, "Please, Miss Third, go to the main room."
After Huang straightened her clothes, she and Yiling went to see Nangong Yue in the main room.
"Third aunt!" Seeing Huang, Nangong Yue stood up from the armchair in panic, and looked at Yi Ling behind Huang with some hesitation, "Third aunt, can you let Yi Ling step down first? Yue'er has something to do." I want to tell you."
Huang looked at Nangong Yue's anxious and panicked face, feeling even more puzzled. Wasn't sister Yue in the flower hall of Rong'an Hall just now? Why did she come to her place suddenly? Even so, she waved her hand to signal Yi Ling beside her to step back first, wanting to see what Nangong Yue was going to say.
Seeing that Yiling had retreated, Nangong Yue took a few steps forward, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Third Aunt, have you been to the warehouse these days?"
Huang's heart skipped a beat, and she thought: Could it be that they still want to muddy the water and involve themselves?... Fortunately, I was on guard.
She couldn't help laughing secretly, and said: "I've been busy looking for theater troupes these days, but I haven't been to the warehouse yet. What's the matter?"
"Third Aunt," Nangong Yue seemed even more flustered, grabbed Huang's sleeve with a look of helplessness, wrinkled her small face into a ball, and said with a look like she was about to cry, "you must help me this time. Mother!"
Huang's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly asked, "Sister Yue, what's wrong with you?"
Nangong Yue didn't miss Huang's subtle emotions. Since Huang just sent Yiling to check the warehouse, she has basically confirmed that Huang's repacking of the warehouse's collection was done by Huang. At this moment, Huang's behavior only made Nangong Yue feel more certain. own ideas. According to the usual Huang family, seeing himself in such a panic, his first reaction must be gloating, not nervousness and concern!
Although she was sneering in her heart, she still looked like she was about to cry, and said with a sob: "Aunt Third, my mother discovered that several precious collections in the warehouse have been secretly replaced by fakes. Aunt Third, then What can I do?"
Huang's heart was shocked. Sure enough, the fact that the collection was transferred was revealed. But judging by Nangong Yue's appearance, she probably didn't realize that the collection was transferred by herself. On the contrary, she wanted to ask herself to help her.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Huang breathed a sigh of relief, but luckily she didn't doubt herself. It's okay, okay... Let's just say, how could such a useless person like the Lin family find out that the collection was transferred by himself.
Carefully hiding the joy in her eyes, Huang also pretended to be anxious, and said in a hurry: "Sister Yue, are you sure? Then what should I do! Those collections are all of great value, and they belong to generations of ancestors. What has been accumulated from generation to generation is now replaced by counterfeit products, which is incredible!"
Seeing Huang's acting harder than herself, Nangong Yue secretly rolled her eyes, but looked up with tears in her eyes, "Third Aunt, I suggested that my mother should tell my grandmother and eldest aunt about this, but my mother thought Some of the fakes have already been in her hands, and if it is pursued, she will not be able to tell, and it will be difficult to get rid of the responsibility in the end."
Huang's heart was very happy, but she pretended to be worried and said: "Yes, what should I do?"
Nangong Yue on the opposite side wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, sniffed and said, "Aunt third, so now the only way to turn the fake into the real is to expose this matter like this. My mother specially asked for it today. I came to look for you, aunt, because I hope that aunt will help you hide it for a few days. Fortunately, the few items in the collection that have been swapped are not orphans. My mother has already asked my uncle to find the same authentic item, and it will be delivered in two days. Then you can replace those fakes." After a pause, she begged again, "If Third Aunt can help with this, my mother will definitely give Third Aunt a big thank you gift."
At this time, Huang's heart burst into laughter. She didn't expect that Lin not only didn't find out that she was responsible for the transfer of the collection, but also asked her daughter to ask her to help hide it for a few days. A generous gift of thanks.
