Chapter 499 The old lady's reflection
This night was really uneasy, and I don’t know how many people were going to suffer from insomnia.
After Tang Youyou left the study, she searched in the room again. She even lay beside the bed and carefully searched under the bed.
Unfortunately, I still couldn't find it. The jade pendant was like evaporating from the world. Was it really the servant stole it?
The Ji family has always been strict with their servants, so how could they bring in people with unclean hands and feet?
Tang Youyou was so angry that when she heard the old lady say she had an impression of the jade pendant, Tang Youyou held a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, what should I do now?
Even if she describes it verbally, she may not let the old lady know.
Just when Tang Youyou was in a state of silence, suddenly, she seemed to think of something, so she rushed over and took out her cell phone.
After looking through the photo, she suddenly saw the photo and looked happy.
By the way, she almost forgot to save the photos of the jade pendant on her phone, and she can show it to the old lady directly tomorrow.
early morning!
Ji Xiaohan suddenly felt that the night seemed very short. Before he could sleep, it was dawn.
He reached out and rubbed his eyebrows. That night, he lay beside his son, but he couldn't sleep. Even if he fell asleep, he was having nightmares continuously. In the dream, Tang Youyou was crying sadly, and two children were crying.
So, Ji Xiaohan woke up at around six o'clock and kept staring at her daughter's sweet sleeping face. She was really like a pig, white and tender, and very cute!
After reaching out and holding his daughter gently in his arms, Ji Xiaohan felt that he was not so desolate inside.
The little guy seemed to like to stay in his arms and sleep. He murmured in a daze: "Dadfam!"
Ji Xiaohan couldn't help but bent the corners of his lips and gently comforted him: "Xiao Nai, sleep for a while."
"Yeah!" The little guy rubbed his palm with satisfaction, then he held one of his arms and continued to sleep with her.
As early winter comes, seasons change, and even the weather changes.
The clouds obscured the sun and left the entire city in a gloomy atmosphere.
Tang Youyou got up early because she knew that the old lady would definitely come here very early.
However, when she was neatly dressed and pushed out, Ji Xiaohan leaned against the corridor, and had not changed her clothes yet, and was still wearing a gray nightgown. He had a cigarette in his hand, and he seemed in a bad mood.
Seeing Tang Youyou, his deep eyes locked her, and then continued to take a deep breath of cigarette.
Seeing his heartfelt look, Tang Youyou immediately walked over and asked with concern: "Why are you getting up so early? You are still smoking, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
"You got up so early, are you okay?" Ji Xiaohan didn't expect that Tang Youyou was a little earlier than usual, and his eyes were slightly darker.
Tang Youyou smiled faintly: "I can't sleep, but I think you have encountered something, is there something wrong with your work?"
Ji Xiaohan shook his head: "No, Youyou, I want to talk to you!"
Tang Youyou was stunned when she heard him say such words.
Just as he was about to agree to him, he heard the old lady's voice walking on the stairs: "Youyou, is it you? Have you gotten up?"
Tang Youyou seemed a little happy when she saw the old lady, so she had to say to Ji Xiaohan: "We'll talk about our affairs later. I'll have more important things to ask your grandma."
"Youyou..." Ji Xiaohan was shocked, and immediately reached out and pulled her wrist.
Tang Youyou turned around, looked at him in surprise, then raised her lips and smiled: "Okay, wait for me for a while, and I'll come over immediately!"
Ji Xiaohan looked at her comforting smile and full of thoughts, but he didn't know how to speak. He could only watch her gently shake off his big palm and quickly walk downstairs in despair.
Downstairs, the old lady was standing at the stairs with a pair of golden reading glasses and was full of energy. When she saw Tang Youyou, she immediately smiled: "Youyou, I want to see the jade pendant you last time, is it OK? Because, this may be my old friend."
"Really?" Tang Youyou did not see another deep meaning hidden in the old lady's eyes, but thought that the old lady really wanted to help her find her biological parents.
"Yes, is your jade pendant still there?" the old lady asked tentatively.
In fact, the old lady was worried that Tang Youyou knew something, so she deliberately hid the jade pendant and prevented her from seeing it.
This means that Tang Youyou is not as simple as she shows.
"Sorry, grandma, the jade pendant has disappeared, and I don't know where it has been thrown away. Uncle Yun suspected that it was a servant who resigned and left.
The old lady immediately said with a clear understanding: "Why did the servant just take away your jade pendant? If she really opened your drawer, there were a lot of valuable things there. Any jewelry that Xiao Han gave you will be given out, which is much more valuable than your ancient jade pendant."
Tang Youyou smiled bitterly: "Yes, I think so too, but Uncle Yun said that the servant was a little old and might have never seen any world. He only felt that gold and jade were valuable..."
"This is unlikely. The Ji family recruits servants, but it is very strict. Moreover, the servants who are on duty have been trained. As for the servants you mentioned who have never seen the world, how could they enter our Ji family?" The old lady felt instantly that this was an excuse that Tang Youyou found, and her evaluation was immediately lowered.
Tang Youyou was speechless for a moment.
"Grandma, in fact, you don't have to find the jade pendant. I also have photos on my phone. I have taken both sides. If you want to see it, you can also see it." Tang Youyou's old lady seemed to suspect that she had deliberately lost the jade pendant, so she had to tell the story of the photo she had on her phone.
I hope to use this to dispel the old lady's suspicion.
But it's so strange that she was the one who lost the jade pendant. She was already sad enough. Why did the old lady blame her in such a tone?
The old lady's eyes were a little stunned, and then her little opinion on Tang Youyou disappeared in an instant.
If Tang Youyou didn't deliberately hide the jade pendant and not let her see it, it would prove that the jade pendant was really lost.
Tang Youyou had already taken out her cell phone, flipped through the photo, and handed it to the old lady.
The old lady stared at her face and took her cell phone.
When she saw the two clear photos, she was shocked and seemed a little disbelief. She also deliberately pushed the reading glasses mounted on the bridge of her nose to make it easier to see the tiny textures more clearly.
Her old body was a little unsteady, and she looked up at Tang Youyou's eyes, and she looked at her with complexity and gaze.
Tang Youyou asked her expectantly: "Grandma, have you really seen this jade pendant?"
