Su Yuqi's puzzled heart suddenly fell.

Really. Sister Qiao is really not talking nonsense.

"How do you ask about this?"

"Brother, Sister Qiao was sent to our house when she was six years old, although in the past seven years, our family has invited two years of husband to take her, but after all, it is just enlightenment and will not learn too many things, Sister Qiao'er has such a net worth, she must have learned a lot of things before sending it. Our family wants to befriend the Bai family, but I am afraid that I can't do this to Sister Qiao all these years. ”

Su Yuanping devoted himself to the entrance examination, he never cared about these things in the house, and Bai Qiao was just a quiet person who didn't seem to exist in his memory.

To exist is to exist.

The next day was Mrs. Su's birthday, Bai Qiao was pulled up by Bi Tao early, and after the face was cleaned, Bi Tao pulled and combed a formal hair ornament, without any jewelry on her hair. I changed into a washed white solid cotton pink long skirt and went to Changchun Courtyard. Everywhere I walked, red lanterns were hung under the corridors of the Su house, and I jumped out with joy.

There must be a lot of guests today, and it is natural for men and women to have separate banquets. The people in the house rushed to Changchun Courtyard early to give a gift to Mrs. Su.

Bai Qiao is not a lazy person, he started to ask himself earlier than usual today, but when he arrived at Changchun Courtyard, he found that the courtyard was full of people after passing the Hanging Flower Gate.

She didn't know these people, and took a few steps into the hall. As soon as I entered the hall, the cool air suddenly hit my face, and it was very refreshing. The four corners of the hall were set up with copper basins, which were full of ice cubes, which were gently fanned by inferior maids with fans embroidered with silk flowers. In summer, ice is scarce and difficult to store, so it is extremely expensive, and everyone who is not rich can not afford it.

With ice in this way, the Su family is indeed wealthy.

Retracted his gaze, and saw Mrs. Su head-on, Mrs. Su was wearing a pink-purple Shu brocade silver thread auspicious cloud pattern skirt, a red gold head, and she was extravagant. Mrs. Su also saw Bai Qiao at a glance. Without him, just because the shabby skirt was particularly conspicuous in the crowd.

"Big lady." Bai Qiao curtsied head-on, and the rules were perfect.

Mrs. Su smiled and went to help Bai Qiao, "Sister Qiao is here, come in, the old lady was talking to you just now." Sister Qi, they're all here. ”

Bai Qiao nodded, made his way through the crowd, and into the back room. The back room was like a silver bell and laughing, and Su Yushan made Mrs. Su laugh non-stop. In addition to Su Yuqi, Su Yushan and Su Yufang, the Su family also has three sisters of the same generation, the oldest of several belongs to Su Yuqi, the youngest is about four or five years old, and there are two small tugs on their heads.

Seeing Bai Qiao, the people in the house suddenly fell silent.

It was Su Yuqi who took two steps and took Bai Qiao's hand: "Sister Qiao is here!" You two little Nizi, don't call me sister yet! ”

The two youngest female dolls immediately shouted crisply, "Sister Qiao." ”

"I'm here to celebrate the old lady's birthday." Bai Qiao touched the hair of the youngest sister, knelt down solemnly in the center of the room, and kowtowed with his hands on the ground, "Bai Qiao wishes the old lady to be as constant as the moon, as the sun rises, as blessed as the East China Sea, such as the longevity of Nanshan, the longevity of the blessed future, and the pine crane Changchun." ”

Mrs. Su was very happy today, and quickly waved her hand when she saw this: "Sister Qiao has a heart, quickly help Sister Qiao get up, come, sit down at Grandmother's place!" ”

"The old lady's nurturing grace cannot be repaid. Peach! ”

Bi Tao hurriedly presented a box.

Bai Qiao took it and respectfully held it in the palm of his hand, "Bai Qiao has no good objects, this is a piece of jade cicada left to me by my mother, and I can take it." ”

Mrs. Su knew a few days ago that Bai Qiao had exchanged all the hairpins for a box, and she was still guessing what Bai Qiao was going to give, and when she heard this, she got up and went to help.

"You kid, just come to celebrate your grandmother's birthday, and what kind of gifts."

"This is Bai Qiao's heart, the old lady must accept it."

"Sister Qiao'er is filial!" Old Madam Su smiled and took the box.

Su Yuqi subconsciously stretched her neck.

Su Yufang's eyes were round, her little hands were clenched, and her teeth were almost bitten.

The box is painted purple and decorated with red beads, and it still looks a little bit like that. When the box was opened, the center of the red silk cloth was empty.

Empty!

Old Madam Su's face froze.

Su Yuqi held her breath.

Su Yufang's face changed drastically. How dare she!

Without waiting for Mrs. Su to react, Bai Qiao's face turned pale first, and he suddenly knelt down again, "Bi Tao!" What's going on! ”

Bi Tao was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and kowtowed, not knowing whether she was scared or panicked, and her tears kept stopping, "I don't know!" The maid has been wrapped in several layers and placed in the cupboard! ”

Su Yufang understood, Bai Qiao was borrowing the old lady's hand to return the jade cicada! Not only that, but she also wants her reputation to be ruined in front of so many people!

What kind of courage Bai Qiao and Bi Tao have been over the years, Mrs. Su has long been clear. They don't dare to fool people at such times!

Someone took Sister Qiao'er's jade cicada!

At this time, it is tantamount to slapping Old Lady Su in the face!

Old Madam Su's face was extremely ugly, and she clasped the box shut, and the smile on her face barely maintained.

"Good boy, it's not your fault, hurry up!" Mrs. Su had no intention of helping Bai Qiao again, so she asked the grandmother around her to help, and she sat back on the main seat. His eyes swept over the crowd below. When she first came to Su's house, Bai Qiao did bring a lot of good things with her, and it was also a matter for a few brothers and sisters in the family to like to take it, she kept one eye open and one eye closed, but she actually took the birthday gift given to her, which made Mrs. Su bored.

"What are you guys all doing in a daze? simply give me a birthday today, and everyone will accompany me more. ”

This is to not let the brothers and sisters here go.

Old Madam Su wants to find out who took the jade cicada.

Su Yuqi felt uneasy in her heart, this matter seemed to be nothing wrong, but the more it was right, the more wrong it was. Is Sister Qiao really going to give her mother's relics to her grandmother as a birthday gift? Unfortunately, the jade cicada was stolen! Was this jade cicada stolen first, or was it stolen later? If it was before, Su Yuqi would have thought that it was stolen later, but now she doesn't think so.

The room full of people resumed their laughter and laughter, as if nothing had happened earlier.

There were many ladies who were good friends with the Su family who came to congratulate Mrs. Su on her birthday, and the people in the house flowed like water, and the congratulatory gifts also moved in and moved to the back room like flowing water.

Bai Qiao was always at Mrs. Su's place, not happy or angry, and found a place to eat dessert without a sense of existence. The desserts here taste pretty good, and Bai Qiao ate them piece by piece, and he was stunned to be full.

After this episode, she returned to her former self.
