Chapter 318: How Can an Old Hen Become a Duck
Sister-in-law Hu was still a little dazed when she arrived at Wei Ziyuan, and she didn't know what was going on. Especially when I saw a few people from the Yao family, their eyes were staring straight at the brazier that was a little too big, and I felt even more inexplicable.
"Madam, this silver charcoal is really good, it burns really hot in this room." Sister-in-law Hu came for a long time, and no one answered her, she was quite uncomfortable, and said tentatively.
Hearing her speak, Yao slowly sat up straight, his eyes gloomy at her, staring, staring.
Sister-in-law Hu was sweating all over her body when she was watched by Yao, and the brazier was really burning too strongly, and the sweat on her forehead was dripping down drop by drop.
"Afraid? Do you know that you are afraid? This is fine, it means that you have not yet reached the extreme of conscience. Yao Shi saw her face dripping with sweat and said coldly.
Sister-in-law Hu felt even more confused. Anyone who wears a big padded jacket and stands in such a warm room for so long, and is stared at by his wife so directly for a long time...... Surely you're going to be sweating, right?
"Madam, the slave maid is feeling a little hot...... Why don't the slaves go out to cool off first? Sister-in-law Hu said with a slight sense of grievance. She has always been Yao's confidant, otherwise, she would not have been allowed to take care of the kitchen.
So although she felt that the situation was a little wrong, she was still a little intimate when she talked to Yao. It is also to remind Yao that she is a confidant and should not be treated like this.
"If you really feel too hot, take off your jacket! I don't know what good things are inside, since I am reluctant to let a few of us see it? Yao's speech is still yin and yang.
Sister-in-law Hu felt very aggrieved, what happened to Mrs. today, she called her here inexplicably, and said these strange words inexplicably?
"Come and see, do you know this hairpin?" Yao asked, pointing to the brazier in front of him.
Sister-in-law Hu took a few steps forward strangely, looked over, and found that there was a golden hairpin in the brazier, which was burning in the fire.
What is this for? Why do you burn a good hairpin?
Moreover, except for the lack of a big pearl, this hairpin looks almost exactly the same as the crested hairpin that Madame gave her this morning!
But why did it run into the brazier?
I can't imagine that the sister-in-law killed Hu couldn't imagine that Yao was using the fire method to verify whether it was real gold?
"This hairpin looks quite similar to the crested hairpin in the morning." Sister-in-law Hu vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and her speech became obscure.
"It's not like, it's that one." Yao sighed and said, "I thought you were credible, so I handed you this hairpin, but what I didn't expect was ......"
"Madame! Slaves and maids are wronged! Sister-in-law Hu shouted loudly.
Although I don't know what happened, it is certainly not wrong to call the wrongs in advance.
"Don't scream at me!" Yao was so angry that he scolded her loudly, "What about the hairpin I gave you?" Where did you hide it for me? Don't hurry up and hand it over! ”
Sister-in-law Hu glanced at the hairpin that was roasting on the fire in disbelief, and then looked at Yao with a dull gaze, and asked deliciously, "Madam, this hairpin ...... Isn't the hairpin here? ”
She remembered a saying she had heard before, real gold is not afraid of fire. Could it be that the lady threw the hairpin into the brazier just to test whether it was real gold?
I don't know how long it has been thrown into the fire, but so far, the hairpin is still fine! Doesn't this mean that this hairpin is real?
She's so wronged! Obviously nothing has been done!
"Mother, this hairpin has been burned for so long, which shows that this hairpin is actually real, right?" Gu Rui, who had been squatting by the brazier, spoke.
Sister-in-law Hu listened and nodded desperately, Shi Niang is right, this hairpin is real!
I really haven't touched this hairpin!
"It seems that Sister-in-law Hu just replaced the sea pearl." Unexpectedly, what Gu Rui said next made her want to break her neck.
Swap out the pearls? How could it be, she had never done anything like this!
When Yao heard Gu Rui's words, he was also a little excited. Although it is very hateful to replace a pearl, if the hairpin is still gold, it is considered to be a loss......
But before she could stretch her head over, she heard Gu Rui shouting loudly: "The hairpin has turned black!" The hairpin has turned black! What's going on, how did it turn black? ”
Yao was shocked, stretched his stomach hurriedly, and looked over. I found that, sure enough, the hairpin that was roasting on the fire, there were black spots on the hairpin, not to mention, those black spots were still expanding rapidly.
In a short period of time, two black spots, which were very close to each other, became one.
What is this, and why is it burned like this when it is the finest gold?
Before Yao could react, the hairpin had turned black throughout, and in a short time, it was burned and melted away, turning into something like water, seeping into the dust under the brazier.
Not only Yao's mother and daughter are stupid, but even Sister-in-law Hu, who has been watching from the sidelines, also opened her mouth wide.
Didn't you say that real gold is not afraid of fire, how can it become a puddle of water?
However, she also quickly understood that the hairpin, I was afraid that it was undoubtedly fake.
But who is doing the harm to himself?
Yao saw that he had a waiting hairpin, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a puddle of ink, stupid, and he was also in a hurry, took a pair of tongs with charcoal on the side, and turned it over in the brazier.
It's just that there is still a trace of it anywhere!
A golden hairpin, thrown into the brazier, disappeared in a blink of an eye?
"Say, where did you hide my hairpin?" Yao twisted his face to look at Sister-in-law Hu and roared loudly.
The thing she hates the most is that people deceive her, which makes her feel like she is being tricked like a fool.
She remembered the grievances she had when she was still a daughter in the Yao family.
She imagined that they treated her respectfully and turned their backs on her, but they laughed maliciously and lashed out at her, the so-called head of the house.
At the thought of such a scene, Yao's whole body trembled with anger.
"The slave really didn't take your hairpin, Madame! At that time, you handed it over to the slave maid, and the slave maid secretly stuffed it into the things of Eleven Niang according to your instructions......" Of course, Sister-in-law Hu would not admit it, and shouted loudly.
She kind of understood what had happened. This hairpin passed through his own hand, and then returned to the lady's hand in such a circle, and in the process I don't know what went wrong, it turned out to be a fake!
But how could she admit it? Carry this black cauldron, and she will die! She remembered this hairpin, and the lady kept showing off, saying that this bead was a real sea pearl, and it was more valuable than the east pearl.
How did it become fake now?
