Chapter 11: The Theft of the Jade Pendant
Siniang knew Yin Qingqi's jade pendant.
When Yin Qingqi was sick, Siniang changed her clothes, but found that Yin Qingqi was holding something in her hand and didn't let go.
Siniang looked at Yin Qingqi's hand, with a green rope tied to it.
Siniang thought about it, she didn't usually have anything to carry with her, except for a jade pendant.
What Yin Qingqi held in his hand was the jade pendant.
It should have been just when I changed my clothes, and the rope slipped off the strap around my waist. Siniang had some differences, the details that she didn't even notice, but Yin Qingqi felt it in her sleep.
But now, the jade pendant is gone. It is impossible for Yin Qingqi to take off the jade pendant for no reason, let alone give it to others, so there are only two possibilities, either it is dropped, or it is stolen by someone.
Siniang watched her go around the door of the Jinghong Pavilion for a long time, but she didn't find anything. Then he ordered the maids around him to go and find all the girls.
"Are you all here?" Siniang asked coldly.
"Back to Siniang, everyone has arrived." The maid knocked on all the doors, and when she was sure that all the people had come down, she answered in the affirmative.
"Okay, just now when I was moving the tea, Yin Qingqi's jade pendant was lost, did any of you see it?"
Girls, you take a look at me, I can't figure out why Siniang disturbed their dreams for Yin Qingqi's jade pendant.
With a poor and sour appearance, who rarely steals her jade pendant? If you sell it, you will lower your price.
But because of Siniang's affection, they finally shook their heads and honestly replied no.
"If no one admits it, then don't sleep tonight, I'll search you myself."
"Siniang, it's not worth it to disturb so many people sleeping for Yin Qingqi, right?"
"Yes, isn't it just a jade pendant!"
Now the girls were restless and couldn't hold back the complaints in their hearts.
"Let me ask again, has anyone seen Yin Qingqi's jade pendant?" Siniang raised her voice, serious and clear. "I don't want there to be people in the Jinghong Pavilion who don't have clean hands, we usually let outsiders look down on us, don't close the door and let others look down on you."
No one spoke.
Siniang didn't say much, she really searched it one by one, and let one go after searching.
Everyone saw that Siniang was real, and they no longer complained, since they could leave after the search, they were scrambling to prove that they went back to sleep.
Yin Qingqi watched from the sidelines, did not speak, and swept his gaze over everyone's faces.
"No need to search, Siniang, I know who it is." Yin Qingqi opened his mouth lightly.
Siniang looked at her with a determined face, stopped what she was doing, and walked in front of Yin Qingqi.
"Who?"
Yin Qingqi said indifferently: "Ding Yufu."
There will be a handover when operating the tea leaves, so she has been in contact with many people tonight, but there is only one person who talks to her.
Ding Yufu.
The rest of the people felt strange, didn't Ding Yufu finish the search just now and left?
Siniang suddenly understood, she was in a hurry, but she ignored the time when she went back to the room to rest in the middle, even if she stole something, she didn't necessarily have to take it with her.
Siniang dismissed the people who were still standing in place, and her face softened. Immediately, he suddenly sternly ordered the maids beside him:
"Go and get Ding Yufu."
Ding Yufu here felt strange, why did she call her back after the search had been completed just now.
She thought that Siniang had searched and didn't find it, so forget it. After all, what Yin Qingqi lost was not something very important.
Still, she underestimated the importance of the matter.
She came to the hall, and before she could speak, she heard Yin Qingqi ask, "Give it back to me."
"What do you pay back?" Ding Yufu asked Yin Qingqi inexplicably.
"Yu Pei, give it back to me!" Yin Qingqi spit out a few words in a firm tone.
"I didn't take your stuff!" Ding Yufu looked disdainful.
Siniang understood, walked to Yin Qingqi's side, and said in a dull tone: "Don't pick up customers from today until you think clearly."
When Ding Yufu heard this, she couldn't bear it anymore, and stepped forward and grabbed Siniang: "Siniang, you can't do this." I didn't do anything. ”
"You still don't say it?"
"I don't really have ......"
Siniang didn't say anything, stroked Ding Yufu's hand, turned around and was about to leave.
Ding Yufu was in a hurry, and if she didn't pick up customers, she wouldn't be able to redeem herself.
"I said, I said ......"
Siniang turned around and looked at her.
Yin Qingqi also stared at her.
"I didn't take it, it's Hua Ying'......," Ding Yufu said in a crying voice.
Hua Ying is Ding Yufu's maid.
Hua Ying was also brought into the hall.
Hua Ying fell to her knees all of a sudden: "It's not me!" Siniang, it's not me who wants to take Yin Qingqi's things! ”
"Obviously, you want to get the jade pendant to redeem yourself, I saw it!"
Hua Ying's eyes widened and she said to Ding Yufu, "You are talking nonsense! You took it while Yin Qingqi was setting up the box! ”
Yin Qingqi smiled.
She didn't care about the dispute between the two people, and walked between the two: "Take it out." Whoever took it, take it out. ”
Ding Yufu looked at Hua Ying, and after a while, Hua Ying said weakly: "In ...... In Miss's dressing box. ”
Ding Yufu said in disbelief: "You want to frame me?"
Yin Qingqi didn't have time to listen to their conversation, so she immediately ran to Ding Yufu's room and opened the small fat powder.
The jade pendant is placed on top.
She picked up the jade pendant and exhaled.
Ask, I'm almost throwing away your stuff.
She returned to the hall, smiled at Siniang, and gently shook the jade pendant in her hand.
Ding Yufu couldn't hold it anymore and sat down on the ground.
Siniang took Yin Qingqi to her room.
"Siniang, don't punish too much." Yin Qingqi spoke.
"It's time to teach Ding Yufu a lesson. She thought that the jade pendant was given to you by Xue Tan, so she asked Hua Ying to pick it up, but Hua Ying didn't dare, so she tricked her into stealing the jade pendant to redeem herself, but who would have thought that Hua Ying would put it there with Ding Yufu first. ”
"It's just a misunderstanding."
"Ding Yufu, this is not a simple misunderstanding. The last time Song Si asked you to dance, it was her idea. ”
Siniang said again: "However, there is half of Xue's character on this jade pendant, no wonder Ding Yufu misunderstood."
Yin Qingqi suddenly raised her head and said to Siniang: "Siniang, I won't tell you that this jade pendant is not mine."
When Yin Qingqi was in the Ting Palace, she had a sister named Xue Wen'er.
When Yin Qingqi first arrived at Yeting Palace, she became the target of bullying by everyone, and they left the dirty work to her and robbed her of food. Only Xue Wen'er wouldn't do that. After a long time, Yin Qingqi and Xue Wen'er became good friends. Xue Wen'er said that she was outside with her family when she was suddenly kidnapped and sent to the palace. However, she was no match for those who had been in the palace all the year round, and it didn't take long for her to be framed and sent to the Yeting Palace.
Everyone said that Yin Qingqi killed the crown princess, and the people in the Yeting Palace felt hateful when they looked at her, but Xue Wen'er believed her. Yin Qingqi was bullied, Xue Wen'er spoke for her, people threw all the dirty work to Yin Qingqi, Xue Wen'er helped her do a share, Yin Qingqi's meal was snatched away, and Xue Wen'er gave up part of herself. Over time, they even bullied Xue Wen'er.
One night it rained heavily, and Yin Qingqi was ordered to go out and take back the clothes that were drying outside, but before she could collect them, they were all wet again.
They blamed Yin Qingqi's mistake and punished her for kneeling outside all night. Xue Wen'er fought for Yin Qingqi, argued with those people, and was kicked out together.
Yin Qingqi also practiced martial arts in the past, and his health was good, and he could barely hold on to it the next day after a night of rain, but Xue Wen'er fell ill. The next day, Xue Wen'er paid attention, and Yin Qingqi followed some people out to work. During the afternoon dinner, Yin Qingqi didn't see Xue Wen'er, so she took her share back and left it for Xue Wen'er to eat.
However, after Yin Qingqi went back, he didn't see Xue Wen'er.
Xue Wen'er was still lying on the bed, but she was not breathing.
Xue Wen'er died.
The dinner that Yin Qingqi left out, no one will come to eat.
Xue Wen'er was poisoned, and Yin Qingqi asked who it was like crazy, but no one answered. She was greeted by the smiling faces of those people gloating.
The palace is full of guilty sinners, and no one will ask if they die.
Yin Qingqi handled Xue Wen'er's descendants by himself and kept Xue Wen'er's jade pendant.
The jade pendant belonged to Xue Wen'er.
Xue Wen'er didn't fulfill her wish, so Yin Qingqi would complete it for her.
Xue Wen'er did not find any relatives. Then Yin Qingqi will look for her.
Yin Qingqi said to Siniang: "Actually, if it weren't for Qian'er, I might not have come to Jinghong Pavilion, and I wouldn't have lived until now."
may have been killed when he was in the Ting Palace.
Maybe when you break your tendons and tendons, you won't be able to hold on.
Siniang also understood what was going on with the word "Xue" on the jade pendant.
Siniang promised Yin Qingqi: "I will keep an eye on the people coming and going for you in the Jinghong Pavilion, and I will also send people to inquire around." After that, you can put your mind at ease. ”
Yin Qingqi thanked Siniang and her eyes were red.
The next day, the news of Ding Yufu's stealing spread all over the Jinghong Pavilion.
Siniang's punishment of Ding Yufu was actually not excessive, she didn't pick up customers for a month, and stayed in the wing room to think about it behind closed doors.
Huaying is slightly more serious and deducts half a year's salary.
Ding Yufu was locked in the wing, but she didn't know anything about the things outside.
The entire Jinghong Pavilion was scolding her for not knowing what to do, saying that her hands were not clean.
She couldn't go out to defend herself, she could only be in the room, and her hatred for Yin Qingqi was getting deeper and deeper.
Yin Qingqi still wears the jade pendant on her body all the time, in case she misses the news about Xue Wen'er's family, it will be worth the loss.
