"Do you know what Mr. He sent for questioning last time?"
"I know, isn't it for that piece of jade pendant? The bookkeeper checked in front of me. That piece of jade pendant was used by two brothers named Bai in Huangtuo Village. They were used for twenty taels of silver at the time. But remember it clearly."
"I heard that the jade pendant is not small!"
"That's not right, even Mr. He has come to ask him personally. Can you be small? I heard that the nobles in Kyoto are investigating this matter."
"Could it be that who lost the child? This jade pendant happens to be a token of retrieving the child?"
"Hey—this really makes you right. This jade pendant is really a token. Although Mr. He hasn't said it clearly, you can see how worried he is."
"Then this matter is forgotten?"
"What's the matter? I only heard about it this morning. In these two days, people will come from Beijing, so I need to find out thoroughly."
"Oh, why don't I have such a good life? If this jade pendant is in my hands, I can recognize a kiss, and this will fly to the branch immediately, what a pity!"
"You think too much, just like you, but you still fly on the branches? You think so beautifully!"
Although the voices of the two people were small, Bai Dazhu, who was shrinking in the corner, heard clearly. He was so startled that he didn't close his mouth for a long time. When the two guys walked away, he turned and ran out of the pawnshop. Rushed back to the white house.
As soon as I returned to the Bai’s house, I saw a few people standing in the Bai’s courtyard, aren’t they just the brothers of the Liu family, they were talking to Liu’s family, Liu’s head hung down and said nothing, and Bai Dazhu charged off. Come in, hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Master, did you really go to Liu's house and snatch my mother's hairpin?"
Bai Dazhu is not in the mood to talk to them now. He hurriedly took out the hairpin from his arms and threw it in front of the Liu brothers. ."
Brothers from the Liu family looked happy. They had been thinking about this hairpin for some time, but the old lady refused to give it to them.
After the brothers of the Liu family left, Liu's complexion was still ugly. She was helpless with such a natal family. Her husband was facing her maiden family in front of her. She felt very uncomfortable in her heart, but what can she say
Who told her natal family not to give her a long face
Bai Dazhu pulled Liu into the room, went straight into the room, and bolted the door back.
"What are you doing?" Liu asked.
Bai Dazhu pulled Liu to sit down, and asked in a low voice, "Do you remember that jade pendant back then?"
"What jade pendant?" Liu asked.
"It's the jade pendant that was used for twenty taels of silver, with a laughing Buddha carved on it. You said it was your parents' dowry."
Liu remembered it, and nodded quickly: "Remember, what's the matter?"
Bai Dazhu recounted the gossip he heard in the pawnshop today, and he was shocked that Liu also changed his face: "This, how could this be? That jade pendant fell out of a corner table, and the third child of the corner table was from outside. It has nothing to do with us."
Bai Dazhu gave her a sideways look: "You silly woman, why don't you understand people?"
Liu didn't understand, he looked at Bai Dazhu blankly: "What do you mean? I don't understand."
Bai Dazhu said, "I can hear you clearly. This jade pendant is a token for acknowledgment of relatives. This thing is taken out of our hands. They will definitely find us here. People from Kyoto will come to investigate in the next couple of days. It must not be ordinary people. You think, if they lose a son, don't we have a son?"
