Section 14 Jade Crushing

The voice came from Aunt Qin's back after she had just gone upstairs. This exclamation really frightened everyone. The first one to rush upstairs was the maid who opened the door for us when she came. When she reached the staircase, she heard another noise upstairs. Although the voice is not small, and the emotions can be perceived, after all, the house is too big and empty to sound, so it doesn't sound so clear when it sounds downstairs.

However, a few words can still be vaguely heard: "purse (clothes pocket), cut off, talk about good (just right)." "I can't guess what is going on with these words, but it seems that there is Cao Cancan's voice. I'm a little strange, didn't this girl finish sending me pants and go downstairs? When did you go back upstairs again? I didn't bother to pay attention to them, so I turned to look at my mother again, and stole a glance at my father by the way. Maybe it's the difference in living environment that causes the two to be incompatible in appearance, not to mention the spiritual world. I sighed softly in my heart, and I didn't know if this breath was a sigh for my mother, or for me, the self who ran out of her belly.

The maid went upstairs for a short time, and saw Aunt Qin and Cao Cancan go downstairs. Cao Cancan looked angry, after all, she is a child, and she likes to express her joys, sorrows, and sorrows vividly on her face, just her expression, I don't know why, I think what's wrong. And Aunt Qin, although she tries to restrain herself, after all, people are emotional animals, no matter how you hide it, the emotions released from your heart can still find clues from the subtle changes in body language and expressions.

Aunt Qin walked across the staircase, looked up, and found that the people in the hall were all looking at her, so she smiled awkwardly: "Oh, Modes (it's okay), I just saw that Cancan stained her new clothes in the morning, and said a few words to her, you can talk." Look at me, haha, the rough (careless) person forgot that there are still guests at home. Sister Mo smiled. "Aunt Qin's Mandarin is mixed with individual dialects, and northerners like me, even if they can understand it, they still have to wander around in their heads for a while. At that time, the popularization of Mandarin was mainly aimed at the public, similar to schools, media, etc., and some natives did not work in public places, so they could not change it for a while.

I was still filtering what Aunt Qin had just said in my head, and suddenly, a child's voice came from behind Aunt Qin, which was not loud, but obviously very resentful.

It's Cao Cancan.

She patted Aunt Qin on the back, and then said urgently: "Mom, why didn't you say that your bracelet was broken?" Such an expensive thing, you are usually reluctant to wear it, put it in your clothes, why did it break? And it's early and late, but it's broken today? ”

After hearing this, Grandma got up from the sofa and was about to speak, but was snatched by her father sitting on the side sofa: "What bracelet?" ”

"Dad, it's the jade bracelet you brought back to your mother when you went abroad to Myanmar. Mom kept it in the pocket of the clothes in the drawer, but who knows, just now I found that the needle and thread were broken. Cao Cancan's words have a long ending note, and that feeling is not like narrating what happened, but like he was wronged and ran to his father to avenge his grievances.

Aunt Qin turned around and scolded Cao Cancan: "Shut up! Don't intervene if adults don't understand! It's none of your business, you go upstairs and study. Aunt Qin stared at her daughter with round eyes. Cao Cancan replied: "I don't!" A puff of smoke ran behind his father.

Aunt Qin's expression was particularly ugly, between her eyebrows and eyes, she could no longer hide it with a forced smile, she leaned slightly in the direction of her grandmother, and said in a weak voice: "Mom, don't listen to children's nonsense." It's okay, maybe I accidentally touched it when I didn't remember. Break wealth to avoid disasters, shatter peace, shatter peace. That, sister, don't blame the little baby for talking nonsense, don't take it to heart. "After all, my mother and I are people who have never seen the world, and we have little contact with things, and our natural cranial nerves are slow. If Aunt Qin hadn't told her mother and didn't want her to think about it, I wouldn't know what the sentence "Morning continues, evening continues, but today is broken" means. So you mean me?!

Grandma was a little angry, she put away the smile on her face just now, and said to Aunt Qin: "Xiaoqin, this kind of thing, yes yes, no yes or no, what is possible?" If you think it's possible, why do you want to tell it? Still yelling upstairs? Don't say that there are guests at home today, but no, you are not the way we should be the daughter-in-law of the Cao family! "Grandma said in the end, the word steady is very strong.

Aunt Qin knew that her grandmother was angry, so she hurriedly walked down the stairs, went to her grandmother's side, stroked her back with one hand, and tried to use a smooth method to make the old man dissipate her anger, and at the same time bent down beside her grandmother to apologize: "Mom, I know I was wrong, I didn't discipline Cancan well, I'll take her upstairs now, just go upstairs!" You degassed. With that, he turned and left.

Before he could take two steps, he heard his grandmother shout from behind him: "Stop! Such a big thing, is it because you say that you will spread your mouth, and you will close the net when you say that you will close the net? It's too unruly, if you are sitting in the hall today, they are all famous families, your frivolous temperament, wouldn't you lose the face of my Cao family?! ”

Grandma said loudly, she became serious, not at all like an old man! At the same time, my grandmother's words made me hear two generalities. This first, the Cao family, grandma is in charge. Second, grandma doesn't want to see Aunt Qin. These two meanings were later confirmed in the days when I lived in the Cao family.

Aunt Qin's face was red and white, she stood in place and didn't dare to move, and she didn't speak again. The atmosphere became tense for a moment.

After all, I am young, even if I hear the core of this contradiction, I have been installed as a best suspect, but I still have no heart to look at this and look at that. Because of four words, a clear conscience. I didn't do it, what am I afraid of?

I looked around at the expressions of the participants in the events around me, and I wanted to sense what was really going on in their hearts. In modern science, it is micro-expression. When I fixed my eyes on my mother's face behind me, I couldn't help but be shocked! Because I saw my mother's angry eyes staring at me, perhaps, at the back of my head for a long time. I shook my head and tried to tell my mother that I didn't do it and that it had nothing to do with me, but she was still flushed and stood there looking at me angrily.

The father said to Aunt Qin: "What a big deal, what a big deal, wait for me to go on another business trip, and bring one back." Without waiting for Aunt Qin to respond, Cao Cancan stretched his neck behind him and said to his father's face, "Dad! It's not something you can buy again. It's a troublemaker and a thief coming to my family! ”

The word thief, with a long tail note, is particularly harsh. At that time, the word thief was far more insulting to personality than it is now. A poor girl who has never seen the world, while changing clothes in someone's house, turned over someone's cabinet and broke someone's precious jade bracelet, which is very reasonable. However, it really wasn't me who did it. After Cao Cancan finished saying that, Aunt Qin was so angry that she strode to her father's side, pointed to her daughter's nose, and said excitedly: "Go upstairs!" My Lu Qin's face is all lost by you today. Aunt Qin herself was thin, and the green tendons that had erupted from anger were pressed against her forehead, which looked a little terrifying. In fact, it's no wonder that Aunt Qin is so angry, grandma just reprimanded her in front of everyone for not having the stability that the Cao family's daughter-in-law should have. It's not surprising that whoever it is changed, is angry.
