At night, Nangong Jinse was about to go to bed when the gate of the courtyard was knocked. Yuzhu got up and opened the door. It was the one named Zhou Erniang.

Yuzhu: "Miss has already gone to bed. What's wrong with Mother Zhou?"

Zhou Erniang said lightly: "The old lady lost her bracelet and asked all the concubines and servants to go and ask questions."

Yuzhu: "The bracelet is lost."

Before Yuzhu could finish speaking, Nangong Jinse opened the door.

"Since you want to ask, go. Yuzhu, put on your clothes and go with me."

"Even the female maids are going."

"Then Yuzhu went and asked Yuyin to bring other maids over, you and I went there first."

Yuzhu nodded, went back to her room and put on her clothes and followed Nangong Jinse to the old lady's courtyard. She was angry last time and didn't know what would happen this time.

Inside the house, the old lady sat on top and below were a group of concubines and ladies, but Nangong Yuyan did not come. Nangong Jinse felt a little uneasy.

"I've seen my grandmother."

"Well, sit down." It's still the kind of arrogant tone.

"I guess you know what happened. My jade bracelet was lost. It was a very good jade, and it was valuable. But what made me even more angry was that I actually stole things to me." The old lady said with a clear anger.

No one dared to speak, so Nangong Jinse naturally kept silent.

The old lady looked at it and found that Nangong Yuyan did not come.

"Why didn't Yuyan come?" the old lady said with a little concern.

It was really a world of difference, Nangong Jinse thought in his heart.

Wei Huilan said gently: "Yan'er feels uncomfortable!"

The old lady didn't ask any more questions.

"Who took it? I can give it to me. If I don't give it to you, I will find out, don't blame me for being merciless."

Everyone looked at each other and dared not speak.

The old lady looked at it for a while and no one spoke. It seemed that she could only search.

"Zhou Ernie, search me carefully, everyone's room."

"yes."

Zhou Erniang searched one by one with a dozen maids, and finally found the broken jade bracelet in Nangong Jinse's room.

The old lady looked sad and angry at the broken jade bracelet.

"In whose room did you find it?"

"Yes, yes, lady." Zhou Erniang said hesitantly.

When Nangong Jinse heard this, he was shocked. This was a false accusation.

The old lady and the others looked at Nangong Jinse with obvious doubts.

"Grandmother is clear, her granddaughter has never taken your bracelet."

The old lady slapped the table angrily.

"I don't admit it yet, the bracelet was found in your room."

"I have never done it before. I haven't been to my grandmother's yard these days. How can I steal it?"

Looking at Nangong Jinse's calm face, thinking that she has never been here in the past few days, is it really not her?

Wei Huilan: "If you haven't been there, it doesn't mean that your people have never been there. If you have so many maids under your command, it may be someone you instructed to do it."

"You are right." The old lady said sternly after hearing Wei Huilan's words.

Nangong Jinse said calmly: "If I am really a wealth-loving person, I will not refuse those who come to give gifts in the past few days. I will not refuse the night pearl given by the prince today. I believe that a night pearl is more than a thousand times better than the grandmother's bracelet."

The old lady also makes some sense.

"But since the bracelet is found in your yard, it must be related to the people in your yard." Wei Huilan continued.

"The rest of the people in our yard, except for the few people he brought, were arranged by Aunt Liu."

Liu Xuemei was a little scared when she heard about herself: "I didn't do anything to be a clever guide for the old lady."

"Liu has always been a scheming person. I believe she will not do such a thing." The old lady said lightly.

"Take out the maids in Jinse Courtyard and interrogate them one by one."

In addition, there were ten people in Yuzhu and Yuyin, but Feng Qing and Feng Yang were not included, because men were not allowed to enter the old lady's courtyard, so all the women here tonight were also married.

Zhou Erniang looked at the ten maids in front of her, and except Yuzhu and Yuyin, everyone else was trembling with fear.

"Who did you do it?" Several maids squatted on the ground in fear. Zhou Erniang's methods were notoriously cruel.

Liu Xuemei and Nangong Xiaoxiao both looked a little scared. The mother and daughter were cowardly and lived a life of compromise in the mansion. However, Nangong Min was a little calm, as if nothing had happened in front of her.

Nangong Min's mother also passed away early like her mother, so Wei Huilan brought her up. Seeing that she was so calm, it must be Wei Huilan's teaching daughter that she is good at.

Nangong Jinse secretly observed the people in the room, while Wei Huilan looked at Nangong Jinse with a sneer on her face. It seemed that this time it was really her conspiracy. After all, she slapped Nangong Yuyan twice in the face today.

Suddenly a maid said in fear: "I said, I said."

Nangong Jinse recognized that the maid was indeed from her yard, and she seemed to be named Xiao Cui.

"I took the jade from the old lady." Xiao Cui said in fear.

"Why are you taking the old lady's jade?" Zhou Erniang asked with a slap in Xiao Cui.

"Because, because, the eldest lady asked me to get the old lady's jade and then give me fifty taels of silver afterwards." Xiao Cui said as she looked at Nangong Jinse.

Yuzhu said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense? How could a lady do such a thing?"

Xiao Cui: "I, I didn't say nonsense. It was really the lady who asked me to do this."

Nangong Jinse: "Yuzhu, retreat."

Yuzhu looked at Xiaocui angrily, wishing she could slash her with a sword, but she actually wronged the lady. Yuyin pulled Yuzhu and signaled her not to say more.

"Jinse, how do you explain?" the old lady said coldly.

It seems that it was made by Nangong Jinse.

"The granddaughter hasn't done it."

"Hmph, I don't even admit it." The old lady was a little angry.

"The granddaughter has no reason to steal grandmother's bracelets, so please trust grandmother."

"That's the maid who is lying, slap me."

Zhou Erniang grabbed Xiao Cui's hair and prepared to beat her.

Xiao Cui broke away from Zhou Erniang's hand with force, climbed to the old lady, and cried and said, "Old lady, I didn't lie. It was really the lady who asked me to do it."

"It was the lady who was very angry when she came back from the old lady's yard that day. She stole the bracelet just to exhale her breath."

The old lady looked at Nangong Jinse with a slight look on her eyes. She said that day, she was really not nice. Humph, this dead girl dared to do such a thing.

Facing the old lady's gaze, Nangong Jinse was not afraid. Although she knew that this was a trap and had fallen, she could only let it go. Because she could not use force to force Xiao Cui to tell the truth.

Besides, Wei Huilan is prepared, so Xiao Cui’s mouth is not so easy to pry open.

Seeing that the old lady had confirmed that it was Nangong Jinse who had taken the jade bracelet, Wei Huilan suddenly knelt in front of the old lady and cried heartbrokenly.

The old lady still loves this daughter-in-law very much. After all, Wei Huilan is a well-behaved and sensible daughter-in-law in front of the old lady.

"Huilan, what's wrong?"

"Huilan feels so distressed. If you have something to ask the old lady to make the decision for Huilan and Yuyan."

Nangong Jinse looked at Wei Huilan who was acting with great care. It turned out that Nangong Yuyan was waiting for her here.

"If you have anything, just tell your mother that she will make the decision for you."

"Today, Yan'er and I just went over to greet the eldest lady. I said something wrong. The eldest lady took a ruthless move on Yan'er. Now Yan'er's face is still swollen. Please ask your mother to make the decision for us."

"What, is this kind of thing?" The old lady slapped the table in anger.

"Zhou Ernie went to invite the second lady out, and I saw what it was like."

Zhou Erniang immediately went to Nangong Yuyan's yard to bring Nangong Yuyan out, and her whole face became swollen, like a pig's head.

Nangong Jinse was a little surprised. He just slapped twice. Even if the swelling is still gone, why is it so swollen now?

It seems that the old lady was taking advantage of stealing the bracelet first, which made the old lady feel that she was holding a grudge against her. A junior didn't respect her elders, which was something that the old lady could not allow.

Then he expanded his attack on Nangong Yuyan, as if he was saying that he could not tell the truth, and he didn't take the old lady seriously. How could he allow such a person to exist as the head of the family?

So the old lady must have had the intention to kill herself now.

Nangong Yuyan knelt in front of the old lady, tears that could not be stopped, as if she could no longer speak.

The old lady was so angry when she saw Nangong Yuyan being beaten like this.

"You bitch-like, the foul girl, is so cruel, and her sister has taken such heavy blows."
