Chapter Seventy-Four: Proof of Innocence
Ruomo was still arguing that the jade pendant in his hand was definitely picked up by himself in the Lanyue Courtyard, and even swore that he could go and find out the location where he picked it up.
Lanyue Temple is where the masters and the Si Ye Si Cheng are located, but the students also go there often. Qin Mianmian is not very good at school, but he is also a frequent visitor to Lanyue Academy, which gives the little girl a chance to pick up things.
"Sister Xiaowan!" Qin Mianmian seemed to see a life-saving straw, "Ruomo didn't know where to pick up a strange jade pendant, which was detained by Master Ji, and now I don't know what to do, they all said that it was related to the theft of the paperweight a few days ago." Sister Xiaowan, you usually have the most ideas, what can you do now? ”
Qin Mianmian and Jin Xiaowan's mother are handkerchiefs, the two have grown up together since childhood, and their personalities are also very compatible, and the two of them can be described as good as half-sisters.
"Mianmian, don't be in a hurry yet." Jin Xiaowan still has some plans for herself in her heart, if the Jin family has two sisters-in-law of the same age, then she is the only concubine of the Jin family.
Because she has been naughty since she was a child, she has a stranger relationship with her brother Jin Ye, who loves to read, but she is more familiar with Brother Jin Cheng, who fights with her all day long.
A few days ago, Jin Cheng complained that Ji Jiuhua was too harsh, and if it was a test question made by Ji Jiuhua himself, he couldn't answer it, and the master had to reprimand him every time, so he almost didn't talk to his father about it.
And Jin Ye is different, not only does he like to study Ji Jiuhua's topics very much, but his grades are excellent, but Jin Xiaowan followed Jin Cheng, and the two of them can be said to have poor grades, and it is useless for the master to make up lessons for the two of them.
Jin Xiaowan only knew that her eldest brother was extremely disgusted with Ji Jiuhua, and she also felt frightened, after all, her grades were not good.
"Master Ji, although the loss of the paperweight will make you very anxious, but you will not say it without evidence, so you brought my family over for no reason, although Ruomo did pick up a strange jade pendant, but you can't just assume that it was the person who stole the paperweight."
Jin Xiaowan is even more pungent than Qin Mianmian on weekdays, and the two of them, as the little overlords in the class, rarely dare to provoke the two of them.
At the moment, she was not stunned at all when she faced Ji Jiuhua, Ji Jiuhua stared at her with a pair of good-looking peach blossom eyes, and tried to recall her identity. Fortunately, Ji Jiuhua's memory is not bad, and for this kind of girl who is not a good student on weekdays, the memory is more profound.
"I naturally have some evidence to find him, not to mention that I just asked, and I didn't arrest him, why are you nervous?" Ji Jiuhua sat down, Jin Xiaowan's tone was so determined, she should know something.
"A few days ago, I was with Mianmian, even if I can't testify, the proprietress of the rouge shop, the owner of Qingfeng Pavilion, and the shopkeeper of Yipinlou can all testify for us, Ruomo has been following us, he has no time to do these things."
Jin Xiaowan is very sad now, she wants to prove that what she said is true, but she has no choice, she can only list what they have done in the past few days, although they have escaped so many classes, but it is always better than being sent to the government.
Ruomo listened to Jin Xiaowan's words and nodded hurriedly, these things are indeed what he has been doing with Mianmian in the past few days, and he was in a hurry just now, and he actually forgot about them.
"What Miss Jin said is true, I swear that I definitely found this jade pendant, and it was the day the paperweight was lost. The master asked our eldest lady to go to Lanyue Courtyard because the eldest lady and Miss Jin had missed two classes in the past few days.
The eldest lady asked me to wait outside the yard, and after turning around a few times, I inadvertently stepped on this jade pendant, so I quickly picked it up. At that time, I didn't think about it so much, I just wanted to sell it to subsidize my family, but I didn't expect to be arrested like this. ”
Ruomo's whole body was almost lying on the ground, and he had been arguing where this jade pendant came from. Under Ji Jiuhua's great majesty, he also had to confide the truth, he originally just wanted to keep this jade pendant for himself, but he didn't expect to set himself on fire and cause such a big trouble.
Ji Jiuhua sighed, knowing that if he continued to ask like this, he would not get any results, so it was better to study the information behind this jade plate.
"You two go first, I believe what Miss Jin said, as for Qin Mianmian, you go and copy the book three more times, have you forgotten all the rules that the master taught you? Call me by my name in front of everyone, do you think it's appropriate, go back and reflect on it, Miss Jin must not feel that she is Qin Mianmian's best friend and help him, otherwise you will copy it with her. ”
Ji Jiuhua actually didn't like the little girl very much, but Qin Mianmian just now was too much, so he wanted to reprimand him well, lest others think that his country's eunuchs were soft persimmons who were easy to bully.
Ji Jiuhua even wanted to reflect on whether he was too good to these girls on weekdays. No one dared to kick his nose in front of him, and Ji Jiuhua's face didn't look good now.
He was so good to these students that he simply felt that these students were going to school here. There should be a learning environment that they should have, but it's not for them to enjoy it here.
Qin Mianmian flattened his mouth, knowing that he was at a loss. His attitude just now was indeed too bad, even if this matter was in front of his father, they would never help him say a word.
After all, she also has an official position, even if she doesn't care about it. When the time comes, it will not be very good-looking to make trouble in front of the emperor, not only does the Qin family have no face, but he also doesn't want Qin Mianmian's face, and if he wants to marry someone in the future, he can't find a good family.
"I know it's wrong, and I will never implicate Sister Xiaowan." Qin Mianmian stomped her foot fiercely and left Jixian Courtyard, and Jin Xiaowan glanced at Ji Jiuhua happily and hurriedly followed.
"You can also go, there is nothing to do with you now, if there is anything needed in the follow-up, please cooperate. As for your eldest lady, although you can't care about him, if you say that there is something bad about him, you should quickly tell his parents. lest you develop a pampered personality at some time, but it will be difficult to manage. ”
Ji Jiuhua saw that Ruomo should be the Qin family's special let him follow Qin Mianmian's companion, Qin Mianmian's every move was under his surveillance, but it seemed that he was sold by Qin Mianmian again, so he didn't tell the Qin family members anything.
"I can see that usually this kind of eldest lady is surrounded by little girls. Since you are a boy, you must be following Qin Mianmian's companion, and you may not be a little girl, but you are about the side of the Qin family, so you can't speak. ”
