Chapter 377: The Golden Pendant
Now that Qin Jue has politely rejected Qin Xuan's kindness, Luo Jinyan has not been entangled in this matter anymore, if Qin Jue is a soft-eared person who has to worry about big and small things, then she might as well dump him early and go to Suzhou to raise a little white face, at least in her previous life, there was no little white face that made her grit her teeth with hatred.

It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is the first big festival after she married into the Qin family. Listening to sweep Hong, every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Qin family will gather in Houde Building to eat wine and enjoy the moon.
Luo Jinyan is the eldest daughter-in-law of the long house, although there is also the Wu family presiding over the feed, but she can't be a hands-off shopkeeper, she was about to send Chang Gui's daughter-in-law to Gufeng Garden for a trip, and Lichun ran over in a gust of wind.
"Grandma, something happened, something happened!"
Xia Zhi frowned, and reprimanded with a straight face: "How did you speak?"
Lichun was sweating and was trained by Xia Zhi, only then did he realize that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said: "Grandma, it's the slave who is anxious for a while, don't be angry, but something really happened, it's not the big grandma who has an accident, it's the little cicada who has an accident." ”
Xiao Cicada is the maid next to Aunt Lan, and she was the one who saw Lichun having a private meeting with a man two days ago.
No wonder Lichun was so flustered, and the little cicada died.
In the morning, when two rough girls went to the well to draw water, they noticed that something was wrong, and when they were fished, the man was already dead.
Xiao Cicada is a third-class maid, even if she is a rough girl with no rank, and if she doesn't go back at night, someone will look for her, but she won't be discovered until the morning.
If this matter has nothing to do with Aunt Lan, it would be strange.
Luo Jinyan is too lazy to care about this kind of thing, she can't even let her worry about the affairs in her uncle's little wife's house, and besides, with the Wu family here, it won't be her turn.
But Lichun was restless, only she saw Xiao Cicada with that man that day, is this the reason, Xiao Cicada was worried that she would say it, so she committed suicide by throwing herself into the well?
She and Xiao Cicada have only met once, but Xiao Cicada looks very honest, not the kind of bewitching bad woman that Chang Gui's daughter-in-law said, did she see the incident that day wrong, Xiao Cicada and the man are not hugging?
She sat under the locust tree, carefully recalling the scene of that day, when the spring equinox led the rice balls over, and the rice balls saw the beginning of spring sitting under the tree, so they happily threw themselves on her.
Lichun and the spring equinox live in the same room, and Tangyuan sometimes sleeps in their house, so he is very affectionate to her.
Lichun subconsciously hugged the rice balls, and the tentacles were hard and a little awkward.
Lichun looked at it, and it turned out that Tangyuan was wearing a golden puppy around his neck, only the size of lotus seed rice, but it was very delicate.
"What is this?" she asked.
The spring equinox smiled: "It was the fifth master who rewarded the rice balls, and there is also one ear, it is a little kitten, you check it, or it is solid, I want to put it away for the rice balls, the grandmother said it doesn't matter, anyway, the rice balls are running and playing in the garden, even if they fall off, they can't run out of Mingyuan Hall." ”
The fifth master is Qin Jia, and that time he said that he had seen his sister-in-law in the lobby when he was a child, and he was disgusted by Qin Jue. He had to be cheeky and run to Songtao Xuan, when he went that day, he happened to see a cat and a dog jumping up and down in Songtao Xuan, he looked interesting, and painted on the spot, Qin Jue liked it very much, and took the painting to coax Luo Jinyan, and he also had a good face for Qin Jia.
Although Qin Jia is not good at reading, Qin Wugongzi's calligraphy and painting are famous.
Luo Jinyan couldn't put it down when he saw this painting, and very generously gave a "Fengyang pot" as a return gift.
Qin Jia was overjoyed with the pot, and for this reason, he also set up a few tables in Taibai Building and held a pot appreciation banquet.
Now we all know that Mr. Fengyang's pot is priceless, all his pots have been given to his granddaughter Luo Jinyan as a dowry, but Luo Jinyan married into the Qin family, the Qin family has not yet reached the point of being poor enough to sell pots, I don't know how many people want to spend a lot of money to buy a "Fengyang pot" and are depressed.
Qin Jia is Qin Jue's cousin in the same room, and he is Luo's brother-in-law, and the pot in his hand must be genuine.
He didn't spend any money on a pot banquet, it was all made up by a group of scholars.
Qin Jia was worried that Qin Jue would throw him into the lake to fill the water again, so he couldn't bear to sell the pot at a high price.
However, this also made Qin Jia very face-saving, he simply patted his ass to the end, and within a few days, he beat a cat and a dog and sent two gold pendants.
Luo Jinyan is not uncommon with these gadgets, but this is for the rice balls and ears, and this fart is just right.
So as soon as she was happy, she gave Qin Jia another "Fengyang pot", and said that when she wanted to exchange money and spend, she just had to change it.
The Qin family's house is not separated, and the children of the Qin family can't be cheeky to earn money, so they can only live on the monthly routine, these two little pendants may have spent Qin Jia's pocket money.
Being a sister-in-law can't take advantage of your brother-in-law.
Listening to the spring equinox, Lichun checked it casually, it was really solid, the fifth master would really please the uncle, and he knew that he would tie up the grandmother...... The dogs are the most useful.
But as soon as she flicked it, the smile on Lichun's face froze, and she stood up excitedly: "I remember, that person also has one." ”
Without waiting for the spring equinox to ask her, Lichun flew to Han Cuixuan.
Yushui and Gu Yu were dyeing Luo Jinyan's nails, and Li Chunfeng ran in, seeing that in addition to Yushui and Gu Yu in the house, there were two little girls who didn't keep their heads, she hesitated, not knowing whether to go out or stay here.
Luo Jinyan glanced at her and said to Yushui and Gu Yu: "You guys go down first, let Lichun dye." ”
Lichun grinned again, smiling apologetically at Yushui and Gu Yu, and the two of them wrinkled their noses at her, and Yuguan retreated.
There were only Luo Jinyan and Lichun in the room, Lichun squatted in front of Luo Jinyan, and while carefully smearing impatiens juice on Luo Jinyan, he lowered his voice and said: " Grandma, the slave maid remembered that the man who was with the cicada that day had a purse hanging on his waist, and there was a golden object hanging from the purse, because he was wearing a sauce-colored cocoon silk robe, and the object was particularly dazzling, but unfortunately the slave didn't see what it was, but it was a string, and there were several objects strung together, each of which was about the same size as the puppy on the neck of the rice ball. ”
A string of gold pendants, each the size of a lotus seed rice!
The young masters of the Qin family's house rarely wear cocoon silk robes, but the big stewards with heads and faces will wear them like this, but most of the stewards are cautious, even if they have gold in hand, who will walk around the garden with a string of golden objects?
Moreover, the place where Lichun saw the cicada was the back house, there was a difference between inside and outside, unless the master called him over, the stewards would not go to the back house.
Chang Gui is Luo Jinyan's companion, and he is also in the upper courtyard, and he can meet the maid privately in the back house of the long house, and he can't think of what his identity will be if he doesn't avoid Luo Jinyan.
