Chapter 10: The Bracelet

The old lady sneered, "The girl who is waiting in front of me will be greedy for you with a broken bracelet?" ”

Tong Yuqing rolled up his sleeves, revealing another bracelet on his wrist. "The girl said that this bracelet was beautiful, and she snatched it from me."

Seeing the bracelet, the old lady's body leaning on the soft collapse immediately sat up straight.

In the past, the Yu family and the Tong family were both hawkers who ran business, but later the family business gradually expanded. The token of the doll's relatives is just a worthless thing, but the jade bracelet that Tong Yuqing is wearing on her hand is a rare and good jade, and Mrs. Yu also liked it very much. However, at that time, the Tong family's business was bigger than the Yu family, and Tong Yuqing's father paid twice the amount of money to buy this thing in order to please his daughter-in-law.

She remembered that the daughter-in-law of the Tong family at that time was not good for this bracelet treasure, and she was reluctant to take it off after wearing it.

For this bracelet, the old lady was still obsessed with it for a long time.

I was a little suspicious of Tong Yuqing's identity before, but now I can be sure of this when I see this. But thinking of the events of that year, the old lady was even more disgusted with Tong Yuqing.

Tong Yuqing put down her sleeves again, covering the jade bracelet, and the corners of her lips curved slightly.

"This bracelet was left by my mother, even if it is worthless, it is a thought, so forget it when the girl takes it. But when the housewife is still here, she still dares to say such a big rebellious thing, if this matter accidentally spreads......"

Syllable!

The old lady angrily smashed the string of white jade beads on her wrist, and the string of beads fell from her body to the ground, breaking several pieces.

"If you really want to be passed on, you will spread it too! The bracelet, and those words, I'm afraid you said it yourself! ”

Tong Yuqing squatted down to pick up the string of beads that had long since disappeared, intentionally or unintentionally stroked the remaining beads that were still intact, and said quietly: "How can I have the courage to do this." My other bracelet is still in her hand, and she did say these things, and if she didn't believe it, the old lady could have called her in and confronted her face to face. ”

Mama Zhang, who was standing next to the old lady, leaned into her ear and whispered: "A few times ago, someone secretly told me that Lianxiang's girl is indeed a little unruly. The young lady is new to Yu's mansion, if her people hear about it, I'm afraid it will be ......"

The old lady's face was pale, and the girl in her yard liked to bully people, but no one had ever come to her to complain about such a complaint. Lianxiang's girl has always been well-behaved and sensible, and she doesn't look like a person who can do this kind of thing. However, because of the farce on the wedding day, Yufu has become a joke in the capital, and if this matter is heard by outsiders again, those who chew the root of their tongues are afraid that they will have something to say again.

"Go and call me the lotus incense."

The old lady gave Zhang's mother a look, Zhang's mother understood, and knew that when she saw Lianxiang for a while, she would throw away the bracelet first, and as for the rest, the old lady had her own decision.

Zhang's mother was about to go out, when she heard Lianxiang shouting outside: "Old lady, young lady is here." ”

Tong Yuqing raised her eyebrows, "Don't look for it, isn't this right at the door." ”

As she spoke, she walked quickly to the door and pulled the little girl in. The old lady's face stiffened, and she could only snort heavily.

"Grandmother!"

Xu Shuyuan, who was outside, saw this scene and followed in, and when she saw the old lady's ugly face, she called her squeamishly. This soft and glutinous sound made people's bones fall off, but the old lady was particularly useful, and her face was obviously much better.

"My nephew and daughter-in-law are also here, so let's see if I'm making it up." Tong Yuqing tore the girl's sleeve open in front of everyone, revealing the verdant jade bracelet on her wrist.

"What a beautiful jade." Xu Shuyuan didn't know why, but she just felt that the color of the jade was very beautiful. After saying this, I remembered in hindsight, how can a subordinate girl afford such a good jade bracelet?

The old lady's expression was grim, "Lianxiang, where did this bracelet come from?" ”

The little girl realized that the situation was wrong, and broke away from Tong Yuqing's hand and knelt down. "Old lady, this bracelet ...... It's lotus-scented. ”

"Still not telling the truth? Do you know what kind of jade this is? Even if you work for Yu Fu for two lifetimes, you can't afford to buy such a bracelet! Mother Zhang walked over and snatched the bracelet, and then turned around and gave it to the old lady.

The old lady put down the jade bracelet without even looking at it, she had already thought enough about this bracelet back then, and remembered what it looked like in her heart. The old lady looked at the girl coldly, and asked sharply: "You said that this bracelet is yours, but some people say that you snatched it." Lianxiang, you can tell me, whose bracelet is it? ”

Lian Xiang is the best at seeing the old lady's eyes, and when she heard this, she immediately pointed at Tong Yuqing and shouted: "She gave me this jade bracelet, not because she beat the young lady's maid last time, and she was afraid that the old lady would scold her, so she asked me to teach her good words." ”

When she mentioned this matter, Xu Shuyuan was not happy, her little face pulled down, and she threw her face on. Tong Yuqing dragged the little girl's head, "You just talk about this, why don't you say that you will be promised to do the big girl's thing after the young lady takes charge?" ”

Xu Shuyuan shook her head and looked at the girl suddenly. What does this mean is that he is worried about the position of the head of the Yu Mansion?

"Grandmother, Shuyuan definitely didn't think about it like that!" Xu Shuyuan hurriedly cleared up the relationship, "I've never seen this girl, how could she say such a thing!" ”

The old lady's face was gloomy, and she slapped it on the small coffee table next to the soft collapse. "Lianxiang, you didn't say these words!"

The little girl's face turned white all of a sudden. At that time, she was just quick to speak, but she didn't expect to be stabbed by Tong Yuqing in front of the old lady! She served the old lady for two years and completely understood the temper of her master. Outsiders only know that the old lady pays attention to the rules, in fact, the old lady wants absolute loyalty, and the most taboo thing is to hide ambitious people around her.

The old lady is not dead yet, she is waiting for the young lady to be in charge, and those words are not enough for her to die ten times.

"Old lady, Lianxiang is wronged!"

"Where have you been wronged? One moment you said that this jade bracelet was yours, and the next you said that I stuffed it to you, and there was no truth at all. I obviously said those words, and now I said that I wronged you? ”

Tong Yuqing lowered her body, and said in a voice that everyone in the room could hear: "At that time, you just cared about looking at this jade bracelet, I was afraid that you didn't notice that there were people listening to the corner next to you......

The little girl's body was shocked, and her face was dead. No wonder the child Yuqing suddenly stopped talking, and lowered her head as if she couldn't afford to offend. It turned out that someone listened to the corner.

The old lady's eyelids jumped for a while, is there anyone in the house who dares to listen to the corner? endured the anger in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "Who wronged whom in this matter, and I have to find that person's witness." Do you see what that person looks like? ”

"Dressed in white brocade satin, with a blue sachet around his waist, he looks weird and good-looking."

The old lady's eyelids jumped again, and she sat a little more upright than before. "Say it again, what does that guy who listens to the corner look like?"

Tong Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and told the person's appearance again.

Seeing that the old lady and Zhang's mother's expressions changed, and the little girl sat directly on the ground, she had a bottom in her heart. "Why don't we find out that person so that we can get me back to innocence!"

"I'm sure my grandmother would never say anything like that. You just beat my maid yesterday, and today you wronged Lianxiang again. Ever since you came, there has been no trouble in this house, and you must have provoked my relationship with my grandmother. I'm going to find out the people, and we're going to confront them face to face!" ”

Xu Shuyuan only thought that she wanted to take this opportunity to show out yesterday's evil spirit, but she didn't expect that the person who listened to the corner could make the old lady shocked, it was definitely a character who couldn't be provoked. She snorted angrily and turned around to leave, but the old lady made a look, and Zhang's mother hurriedly went up and stopped the person.

"What are you looking for, people have left early!"

The old lady's face was full of anger, and she caught a glimpse of the jade bracelet that was placed aside, grabbed it and smashed it on the ground. The bracelet was crisply shattered at Tong Yuqing's feet, and the emerald green fragments were scattered all over the ground.

Tong Yuqing looked down at the fragments, and when she looked up, she happened to bump into the old lady's cold and hateful eyes, she was distressed and pity on her face, but she was sneering in her heart.

"I don't see how rare this bracelet is, and in the future, each of them will look at their own things, don't come to me to cry and cry when the time comes. Lianxiang spoke unruly and spoke nonsense, slapping her mouth twenty. Rob other people's property, hit me with a few sticks first, and get me out of the house before the person dies. ”

Lian Xiang's face was not bloody at all, and she sat on the ground like a puddle of mud. It wasn't until someone came in and dragged her away that she came back to her soul and begged for mercy. People have been dragged out for a long time, and they can still hear the voice.

The old lady breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Zhang's mother to bring her pair of gold hairpins over, saying that she had broken Tong Yuqing's jade bracelet, which was regarded as an apology. Tong Yuqing saw the pair of golden hairpins, thanked them and left.

As soon as Tong Yuqing's front foot left, the old lady smashed the tea cup handed over by Zhang's mother again. The tea mixed with the debris on the ground was a mess.

"Looking at the greed for money and weakness, it is actually a wild wolf! If she didn't have a little bit of scheming in the city mansion, she would be able to enter the door of my Yu mansion? ”

"Grandmother, you take your breath." In the past, Xu Shuyuan treated the old lady with a smile whenever she came, but today, she was taken aback by the old lady's temper.

Old Madam Yu glared at her sullenly, "Can I dissipate my anger?" I used to think you were a clever person, why didn't you think about things this time? ”

Xu Shuyuan knew that what the old lady said was that she was going to run out to find someone just now, but now that she calmed down and thought about it, she was indeed reckless. "I also want to find out the person who listens to the corner, either by beating me or giving me some money, so that others can't make my grandmother lose face after hearing about it. Grandmother, is that person a guest at the house? ”

Old Madam Yu frowned, "He just left when you came, and he was a ...... People who can't be messed with. ”
