Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

Fortunately, the master stepped in and spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to suppress the matter. It is said that the prefect will start the trial in a few days. The people will also be allowed to listen in. She had to tell her subordinates to tell the two shopkeepers to be honest and not to talk nonsense.

There is really not enough money in the mansion this year.

Fortunately, some other industries in the mansion were not affected.

"Oh no, Miss, there's a fire in the warehouse next door, and the box where you stored your wedding dress has been burned..."

Gu Zhao laughed.

These days, several rooms in her yard are full of stuff, and some of the stuff can no longer fit in, so they are piled in the empty yard next to it. That yard has always been empty.

Hearing this, Gu Zhao pretended to be anxious.

"Hurry up and ask the people in the mansion to put out the fire."

Gu Zhao asked Hong'er and Lu'er to guard the yard, and he took some people to the yard next door.

The room where the wedding dress was stored was now ablaze with flames. In addition to the box containing the wedding dress, there were also some cloths and several newly built cabinets.

"Go put out the fire."

"The eldest lady's wedding dress is still inside."

"Hurry up and get some water to put out the fire."

Gu Zhu and Gu Rong also rushed over.

"Why did a fire break out out of nowhere?" Gu Zhu pretended to be anxious and loudly urged her men to put out the fire.

Gu Rong also shouted loudly.

"Hurry up, get more water, and rescue the things inside quickly."

As Gu Rong spoke, her eyes were still fixed on Gu Zhao. Seeing Gu Zhao's anxious look, she felt extremely proud.

Gu Zhao, you want to wear that wedding dress and marry the Prince of Qin? You are dreaming.

I will never allow you to ruin my plans.

After two incense sticks of time, the fire in the house was finally put out.

"Zhao'er, go in and take a look at what was burned. Mother will find a way to replace it for you."

Gu Zhao looked at Cuihua.

Cuihua brought people in, and after a while, they carried out a large wooden box.

"Miss, this wedding dress has been burned."

When the box was opened, the wedding dress inside turned black. Some red could be vaguely seen, but most of it was black.

When Gu Zhao heard this and saw the box, he said anxiously.

"What should I do? How did the wedding dress get burned? How did you guard this yard? Did someone set the fire? I'm going to report it to the police."

Upon hearing that they were going to report to the police, Gu Zhu hurriedly tried to stop them.

"Zhao'er, tomorrow is a big day. You can't report it to the authorities now."

Madam Gu also rushed over at this time.

"Mother, please try to persuade Zhao'er. It's unlucky to report to the police now."

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu also started to persuade them.

"Don't report it to the police."

Gu Zhu pretended to be a good person at this time and said.

"Bring those two servants here and have them interrogated."

After the servant was caught, she immediately cried out for injustice.

"My lady, I don't know anything."

"Miss, I saw that she drank too much and knocked over the charcoal brazier..." another servant said loudly.

Just by hearing this one sentence, Gu Zhu immediately concluded that the fat servant had made a serious mistake.

"Come on, drag her away and give her twenty hard beatings."

"Madam, please spare my life."

The old woman had drunk a little too much and was about to say something when she was dragged away by Gu Zhu's men, covering her face.

"Hit him far away, don't dirty the young lady's yard."

"Drag him to the garden and beat him."
