Chapter 1498: 1498 rogue father gave birth to a rogue daughter

Thinking of Tao Meijiao who was still waiting for him at the Tao Mansion, and since the Tao family had only one daughter, if she married him, there would be no one to manage the Tao family business.

Moreover, if she were to get married, the Tao family’s property would only become a dowry, and he had no intention of coveting the Tao family’s wealth.

Besides, it was impossible for Meijiao to get married.

He was a responsible man, with the wedding guests gathered at the Tao Mansion, and even though he was furious inside, the marriage still had to take place.

After a while, Su Qingyue, Yuchuan, and Xiao Qinghe went to the Tao Mansion to attend the wedding.

The Su Dashui couple waited until the three of them had left before heading towards Qin Garden.

The two of them had been worrying about Su Qingyue’s one hundred and fifteen thousand tael notes, waiting for today when Qin Garden would be empty so they could steal them!

Just as they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, they saw Maid Yinzhu embroidering in the yard.

Pondering how they had overlooked such a maid.

The couple moved to a deserted corner, and Su Dashui said, "Wife, can you find an excuse to send Yinzhu away?"

Turning the idea over in her mind, Su Qin muttered, "That maid Yinzhu is not easy to deal with; I’ve tried to order her around several times to no avail; it’s like I have a feud with her, and she even said her young Lady doesn’t have a mother like me! Wait until I take control of the Xiao Mansion, she will be the first one I sell!"

Su Dashui wasn’t easily fooled either, "This girl is on guard against us like we are thieves. To send her away now would only arouse her suspicion; it’s better to wait."

"Wait for what?"

"She has to eat eventually," Su Dashui calculated, "When it’s time for her to go for her midday meal, that will be enough for us to search Su Qingyue’s room."

"That makes sense."

...

By the time Su Qingyue and the others returned from the Tao Mansion after finishing the wedding feast, it was already approaching evening.

Maid Yinzhu stood watch at the mansion gate, and upon seeing her master and the party, she immediately said, "Young Lady, son-in-law, Master, you all have returned. There has been trouble at the mansion!"

Su Qingyue said indifferently, "Did the Su Family couple sneak into my room to steal some silver taels?"

"Young Lady, you really are clairvoyant, predicting that the Su couple would steal during your absence. Not only that, but Lady Xiao’s purple jade hairpin was stolen, found in Su Qin’s room. Now, the Su couple is tied up, held in the Yi Garden courtyard. I was going to notify you at the Tao Mansion, but Lady Xiao said that a wedding was taking place there, and it would be offensive to mention such matters, and since it involved your parents stealing items, the issue wasn’t urgent and could wait for your return to be addressed."

Su Qingyue nodded slightly and headed towards Qin Garden.

"Young Lady, won’t you take a look at Yi Garden?" Yinzhu followed behind.

"What’s there to look at? Just a couple of thieves, Lady Xiao can deal with them however she likes," she said with an air of complete disinterest.

"If I knew you wouldn’t care at all, Young Lady, I wouldn’t have worried unnecessarily for half a day."

...

In the Yi Garden courtyard, after hearing the servants’ report, Shen Yun scoffed, "Su Qingyue wants to keep out of it and not deal with the two thieves? No matter what, they are her parents. She’s nothing but a thief’s daughter born from a thief’s bone! I’ll go to Qin Garden myself and bring the Su couple over."

"Yes."

Shortly after Su Qingyue returned to Qin Garden, Shen Yun came with the maid Shuang’er; behind them, two family servants were escorting Su Dashui and Su Qin, whose hands were bound behind their backs.

"Daughter, save me!" Seeing Su Qingyue, Su Qin burst into tears, "I didn’t steal Lady Xiao’s purple jade hairpin; even if I were to steal, I wouldn’t dare steal something belonging to Lady Xiao!

"Daughter, your mother and I merely went to your room to tidy up, just... just to fold the quilt, we really didn’t steal anything..." Su Dashui also cried out with his chubby face full of tears.
