After settling her mother-in-law, Ye Jingshu decided to go to her mother-in-law's bedroom to see what secrets were hidden inside.

Walking to the bedroom and seeing the locked door, Ye Jingshu pulled the corners of her mouth: It seems that her mother-in-law is very wary of her. But unlocking wasn't a problem for her.

Because I always forgot to bring my key when I was a child, and the Ye family's parents were very busy with work, they couldn't always go back to open the door for her as soon as possible. Over time, in order to prevent his daughter from locking the spare key at home and not being able to enter the door, Dad Ye handed over the method of unlocking the lock to his daughter.

I saw Ye Jingshu smile slightly, took off a small hairpin from her head, inserted it into the lock, twisted it a few times, and with a "bang", the lock was opened.

Immediately, Ye Jingshu entered the bedroom lightly. I saw a six-inch box on the table in the bedroom. When Ye Jingshu saw it, she was excited: it seems that the bracelet is hidden in this box.

But to her disappointment, when she opened the box, there were only two 100-dollar bills inside. Ye Jingshu searched everywhere in the bedroom again, but she searched everywhere, but she still couldn't find any trace of the bracelet.

In the blink of an eye, nearly forty minutes had passed, and it was estimated that her mother-in-law was about to wake up, and was about to go out, when Ye Jingshu suddenly heard a noise from the living room.

Ye Jingshu's frightened heart was raised to her throat. Not caring too much, Ye Jingshu hurriedly restored the house to its original state, relocked the bedroom door and left here.

When she arrived in the living room and found that no one had come back, Ye Jingshu finally put her heart back in her stomach: it turned out to be the sound of her mother-in-law turning over when she was sleeping. After that, Ye Jingshu picked up a broom and started cleaning.

According to what I just discovered, my mother-in-law's house only had part of the private money she had saved, and there was no trace of the bracelet.

But in the process of moving my mother-in-law to the sofa, I paid special attention to it and found that my mother-in-law was not wearing the bracelet, so where would the bracelet be placed? Ye Jingshu fell into deep thought.

After a while, Pu Mu woke up. When I opened my eyes, I found that I was lying on the sofa, and Ye Jingshu was cleaning. Alarm bells in my heart:

Ye Jingshu's little hooves won't take their money away while she's asleep, right? Thinking of this, he hurriedly looked towards the bedroom, and when he found that the door was still locked, he let out a long breath. Opening:

"Jingshu, why did I fall asleep on the sofa?"

Ye Jingshu saw that her mother-in-law was awake, so she poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Pu Mu, and replied with a smile:

"Mom, you may be too tired, you fell asleep on the table after eating at noon today. I was afraid that you would catch a cold, so I helped you to the couch. ”

Looking at Pu Mu's soothing face, Ye Jingshu asked as if unintentionally, "Mom, why haven't I seen you wear that bracelet in the past two days?" I think it's pretty good. ”

Pu Mu chuckled in her heart: This hasn't stopped for a few days, why are you asking about the table again? Now that the bracelet has been sold, what should I say? What if Da Gui'er finds out!

So he showed a worried look, sighed long, and said half-truthfully:

"Alas, it's good that you don't mention this bracelet, but it hurts my heart when you mention it! Da Gui'er just gave me this bracelet, I like it so much! But I've only worn it twice, and I can't find it! ”

After Ye Jingshu heard it, she was obviously anxious, this bracelet is a key item to investigate the cause of her mother's death, if she really can't find it, then where will she find the truth of the matter? So he didn't care too much, so he hurriedly asked:

"Mom, where did you lose this bracelet? Think again. ”

Looking at the gaffe Ye Jingshu, Pu Mu sneered in her heart:

Bah! You little hoof, you still say it's not my thing? Thankfully, I was able to sell it out. Yes, you don't want to get a finger on it, the hair is not your share! Looks like she was really bluffed.

So he continued:

"That day, I went to the street to catch the market, and I still wore it when I went out, but when I came back from shopping, it was not on my neck. Alas! This is what my eldest son paid me to buy! Jingshu, don't let your brother know about the loss of the bracelet! Otherwise, he should be disappointed, maybe he won't buy me anything in the future. After that, he squeezed out a few tears.

Ye Jingshu saw her mother-in-law's appearance and knew that this bracelet could not be found. There's no way to continue looking into it now. But my father said that the bracelet was not in the Ye family, and when he was helping his mother clean up the relics, the bracelet was not on his mother, and the bracelet was not found at the scene of the crime at that time.

So this thing should have been taken away by someone with ulterior motives.

After Ye Jingshu finished cleaning the room, she told Pu Mu that she was going out. Pu Mu knew that Ye Jingshu would not gain anything even if she went out, so she allowed her to go out.

Ye Jingshu went to the post office again this time to write a letter to her father. In the letter, she told her father about her recent discoveries and her doubts.

She suggested that her father call the police directly: on the one hand, this bracelet belongs to the Ye family's heirloom, which is priceless and has been passed down for many years and cannot be lost; On the other hand, Ye Jingshu always felt that her mother's death was not so simple, and that bracelet played a vital role in finding out the truth.

When Ye Jingshu came out of the post office not long after, she ran into her eldest sister Pu Xiu, and before she could speak, Pu Xiu hurriedly stepped forward and said angrily: "Jingshu! I don't want to do this job! You must help me! ”

"What's wrong, sister?" Ye Jingshu wondered.

"Don't mention it. Recently, there is a newcomer Xiao Zhang in Boss Huang's store. Boss Huang asked the two of us to send out a single page together. I can't pay enough salary, but Xiao Zhang always excuses that there is something at home and she has to leave early before the time comes, so I have to help her send those leaflets every time. I didn't do less work, but the salary was still so much, I wanted to resign, but Boss Huang said that the deadline had not arrived, and if I resigned, it would be a breach of contract, and I would have to pay five times the fine! ”

Ye Jingshu thought about it, the bracelet should no longer be in the Pu family, if she was outside, she might be able to find out the whereabouts of the bracelet. Then he opened his mouth and persuaded:

"Sister, don't be angry, from tomorrow, I'll go over for you."

Pu Xiu wanted this sentence, and after hearing Ye Jingshu's promise, she happily went home with Ye Jingshu.

Months went by. From Ye's father's reply, Ye Jingshu knew that her father had contacted the police, and she still hadn't heard the whereabouts of the bracelet. It looks like we'll have to wait. During this time, the Pu family returned to their previous rhythm of life.

The only thing to be happy about is that Ye Jingshu and Xiao Zhang, the new arrival in the rice noodle shop, have become good friends. Although there is a lot of age difference between the two, the tenacity of not admitting defeat in the face of difficulties is the same.

To be honest, Ye Jingshu has not been comfortable for so many years, and she has a lot of regrets both in love and family. But Xiao Zhang's appearance made her feel that there was not only a storm in her life, but also a breeze and warm sun, and she gained a trace of long-lost happiness.

The two eat together, chat together, work together, and talk about everything. Xiao Zhang is also a college student, but the only difference is that her mother has uremia and has to work in order to pay for her mother's medical expenses.

After Ye Jingshu learned about Xiao Zhang's life experience, she sighed in her heart:

His family is not as poor as Xiao Zhang, his parents have never asked him to go out to work, and his parents' only requirement for him is that he hopes that he can complete his studies, but he gave up his studies for love. I didn't know that education was a stepping stone, because I got married before I graduated, so I could only be regarded as a high school graduate, which also made me repeatedly hit a wall when looking for a job. Looking back, Ye Jingshu felt that her life was actually quite a failure, and she couldn't manage her family and love well, and she didn't even finish her studies. This should be the thing I regret the most.
