After rebirth, I became the stupid son of the Hou family

Chapter 248 Taking away stewardship rights

When Jiang Feng saw his mother being questioned, he quickly stepped forward to smooth things over and said:

"What my mother means is that Lao Wu has stolen things before, and it is probably him. But it is not confirmed that he did it. We might as well send someone to investigate, and it will be clear. "

Jiang Chen looked at Jiang Feng and knew that he was trying his best to protect Liu Ruyi.Once, as the old lady said, Liu Ruyi's power as housekeeper was taken away because of this incident.She will no longer be able to continue to be the master of the house in the Hou Mansion.

Then her status in the Hou Mansion would be completely lost.After being the mistress of the Hou Mansion for more than ten years, how could she be willing to just be a powerless concubine of the Hou Mansion?

Jiang Chen said to Jiang Feng:

"Brother, based on Aunt Liu's unfounded words, we will send people to investigate. Do you think there will be results? If those valuable things were really stolen by Lao Wu. Based on his psychological quality , should we step into our Marquis' Mansion again? It's even more impossible to repeat the old tricks, steal things again and expose ourselves. If it were to be Butler Liu, I believe that with his psychological quality, it would be about the same. "

Jiang Feng glanced at Jiang Chen and said:

"Jiang Chen, according to your point of view, do you suspect that Butler Liu did it?"

Jiang Chen smiled and said to Jiang Feng:

"Brother, this matter should actually be left to you to handle. Anyway, after taking office in the future, you will also handle various cases. Why not today, let's solve this case in our family first, and treat it as Let’s accumulate experience in solving crimes for you to take office in the future.”

Jiang Feng quickly said to Jiang Chen:

"There is no evidence for this matter. I don't even know whether it was done by thieves outside or inside the house. I don't even know when it was lost. Leave this matter to me. I will Where can I get a clue?"

Jiang Chen glanced at Jiang Feng and said to him:

"This matter is not as clueless as you said. As long as you pay careful attention to a few details, you can find clues. If it is a thief coming in from the outside, there will definitely be traces. It is impossible to be like a ghost. The shadow cannot be left behind. There are so many housekeepers in our Hou Mansion. No matter how capable they are, they cannot transport so many things out of the house easily. Unless all the people in our Hou Mansion are collectively deaf, otherwise Under their noses, it is simply impossible. As long as the leader of the guard is arrested and questioned strictly, he cannot know anything about it. Furthermore, the locks on the door and cabinet are also evidence. When outside thieves come in, all the locks will be damaged by them. It will not be like now, where every lock is undamaged and continues to be used. With these items added together, it will be clear at a glance whether you think it is an outside thief or an inside thief. Well, brother, what's so hard about solving this case?"

Jiang Feng couldn't help but sweat broke out on his back.It seemed that nothing could be hidden from Jiang Chen's eyes.

Liu Ruyi, who was on the side, was even more frightened after hearing Jiang Chen's analysis.

At this time, Li Susu said again:

"Thanks to Mrs. Wang in my house, she checked the things in my cabinet as soon as she came back. Otherwise, over time, it would be hard to explain the things I lost."

After listening to everyone's stories, the old lady had already made a judgment in her heart.

She said decisively to everyone;

"It seems that the theft must be caused by a ghost in the mansion. Butler Liu has not found out for so long that he actually has something evil in his heart. He is the chief manager of the Hou Mansion. Who dares to do anything under his nose? Unless it is him who does such a large transaction, he will take the list of Madam's lost things and report it to the government. Since he dares to steal valuable things like this, he will definitely do it after he has managed the Hou Mansion for so many years. The guard is committing theft. Liu Ruyi, from now on, you will stop your right to manage the Hou Mansion. You ask the accountant to hand over all the books to me. Let me see if the property of our Hou Mansion is like the Madam's Room. All the dowry has disappeared."

At this time, Liu Ruyi's face was already pale with fear.

She didn't expect that as soon as the old lady heard Jiang Chen's analysis, she immediately determined that it was her brother Liu Neng who did it.

What's even more serious is that the old lady will immediately take away her power as housekeeper.

When the accountant took out the account book, she was even more confused about the large amounts of incoming and outgoing details.

She originally thought that Li Susu would never return to the Jiang family again, and she would always be the hostess of the Hou Mansion.

The old lady is old and has never been involved in the family's financial affairs for a long time.

Who would have thought that Jiang Chen, who had been made a fool by himself, would suddenly miraculously turn around again.Not only was his illness cured, but his official career was also prosperous, and he not only surpassed his son to become the number one scholar.Even Li Susu was personally invited back to the Hou Mansion by the old lady.

The situation turned around so quickly that she didn't even have time to prepare.He fell into this embarrassing situation in a panic.

She raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Feng in front of her. Jiang Feng quickly avoided her eyes asking for help, not wanting to be dragged down by the woman in front of him.

Only Jiang Yingxue walked up to her eagerly and said to her:

"Mom, do you know about my uncle? As the steward of the Hou Mansion, how could he do such a thing? Where is my uncle now? If he did it, tell him to hurry up Come here and take his own responsibility.”
