"This face is fake," she lowered her gaze, "this is not my face."
The crowd was silent for a moment.
Mrs. Liu took the lead and asked: "Ms. Jiang Er, what does this mean?"
Jiang Li smiled, and handed the head face to Madam Liu, and said lightly: "I spent 400 taels of silver and bought a pair of ruby head face in the Jixiang Building in Yanjing City. There are only three ruby head faces in the whole Jixiang Building. It’s because the gem is very good in color and bright in color.” After a pause, Jiang Li continued to finish. “But the pair in my hand is rough in workmanship and dim in color, let alone four hundred taels of silver. Forty taels are not as good."
"The girl meant..." Tonger couldn't help asking.
"I really want to curse my third sister, and I won't use such a shabby little thing." Jiang Li said contemptuously, "This is not my top face. Someone took my top face and replaced it with this one. Come broken stuff."
Someone took her head and face!
Things took a turn for the worse in an instant, and everyone suddenly realized, but after a while, they fell into deeper doubts.
Mrs. Jiang said: "Girl Li, someone took your head and face, what does this mean?"
Jiang Li turned his head and smiled slightly at Mrs. Jiang, and said: "Old lady, don't worry, I will find out now, what is going on?"
Old Mrs. Jiang was startled, and in front of the guests, Jiang Li called her "old lady" instead of "grandmother", and she knew it at the first glance. This is a grudge against her, because I didn't stand by Jiang Li's side when Jiang Li was in trouble just now
A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Youyao's and Ji Shuran's faces, things shouldn't have developed in this way. Ji Shuran's heart moved, and she didn't want Jiang Li to break her plan, so she said: "Li'er, how could this gemstone face be fake? Did you admit it wrong?"
"Impossible!" It was Mrs. Liu who was speaking, and she categorically said: "What comes out of Jixianglou can't be of this quality. You are all regulars of Jixianglou, and you will know after a try." Mrs. Liu pointed out again. The ladies beside me, several ladies touched each other, and they all nodded.
Confirmed what Mrs. Liu said.
Ji Shuran's brows furrowed, she looked at Jiang Li, and suddenly realized that from the beginning to the present, the cracks on the face of the gemstone had been discovered. Whether it was the accusations of the people or the strange eyes, Jiang Li didn't feel anxious about it.
Jiang Li was puzzled, confused, regretful, and apologetic, but he did not panic, anger, helplessness, or despair.
Even now, Jiang Li still has a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth, exactly the same as her first.
When is it all, why do you still laugh, what's so funny
Ji Shuran thought, feeling more and more wrong in her heart. Subconsciously, she saw Jiang Li looking down at the people on the ground, and followed Jiang Li's gaze, and found that Xiangqiao on the ground was kneeling, but she looked like she was going to collapse. On the ground.
Xiangqiao was shaking.
Jiang Li squatted down and stretched out her hand to support Xiang Qiao. She looked at Xiang Qiao with a cordial and gentle look, and her tone was as kind as before.
She said: "Xiangqiao, you stole my head, right?"
"No, it's not." Xiangqiao insisted, "The slave servant didn't do such a thing."
"That's weird." Jiang Li murmured to herself again with a bit of puzzlement, "Since you said you saw the ruby head that I carved up with a knife with your own eyes, but now the head and face are clearly changed. After that, what you saw, could it be... a ghost?"
Jiang Li said the last two words very softly, but when she heard Xiangqiao's ears, she felt miserable and ghostly.
"Sister, you said that Xiangqiao took your head and face, is there any evidence?" Jiang Yu'e said unwillingly.
"Evidence?" Jiang Li stood up again and smiled at Ji Shuran: "My mother, as the host of the house, asks her to send someone to the Xiangqiao room to search for the whereabouts of the ruby head. All the ladies and sisters are here. Here, it happens to be a testimony. Jiang Li from the province will have to bear the charge for nothing after she proves her innocence."
The guests were a little guilty.
Jiang Li's remarks were accusing them of putting themselves in a high position but staying out of the situation when they were just watching the show.
Ji Shuran smiled, her teeth clenched, she is not stupid, knowing that today's calculation of Jiang Li is fruitless. She was surprised that Jiang Li was able to control others afterwards, and a person who had no contacts and silver in Jiang's Mansion had the ability to stand up. But she was afraid that Jiang Li would have a future move, and subconsciously looked at Xiangqiao again.
Hearing that Jiang Li was going to search for a room, Xiang Qiao was relieved immediately, and in Ji Shuran's eyes, he was worried in a flash. Knowing that Jiang Li probably couldn't find anything, she assigned a few people to search for Xiangqiao's room.
Quiet again in the entire main court.
Jiang Yuanbai finally recalled at this moment, feeling that he seemed to have done something wrong. He looked at Jiang Li, and saw his daughter standing not far from Jiang Youyao. Jiang Youyao was exquisite in clothes and gorgeous hairpin, but Jiang Li was simple in plain clothes. If it weren't for her graceful appearance, she would be as inconspicuous as a maid alone.
Jiang Yuanbo suddenly felt a little uncomfortable again.
Jiang Yuanbai has a good face and protects his shortcomings. Even if he hates and angers Jiang Li, he doesn't want Jiang Li to ruin Jiang Mansion's face in front of the guests. Moreover, at this moment, the facts have proved that there is something else in the head, and Jiang Yuanbai feels that he has just spoken too much about Jiang Li.
What everyone was thinking about, Jiang Yuanbo's regret, Ji Shuran and Jiang Youyao's disappointment, Jiang Li didn't care at all. She stood in the atrium, staring at the composing Xiangqiao with interest, and suddenly wanted to laugh.
She had known what Ji Shuran and Jiang Youyao had made, but what she had to do was not just to prove her innocence.
People are harmless, but tigers are hurtful. It is always a disaster for Ji Shuran's people to stay in Fangfeiyuan. She has learned a lesson from the tragic experience of her previous life.
After a while, the people who had been sent to search for Xiangqiao's room came back. In order to show fairness, Mrs. Jiang also assigned the maid beside her to go with her.
Grandma Zhang took the people back to Mrs. Jiang, took a look at Xiang Qiao on the ground, and said: "Back to the old lady, I found the ruby head from Xiang Qiao's room. There is no knife mark. It should be true."
Xiangqiao softened and murmured, "Impossible."
Jiang Youyao was also taken aback, when Ji Shuran saw Jiang Li's smile widening, her scalp immediately tightened.
Sure enough, Mother Zhang hesitated, and in front of the guests, she said: "The slaves and maids also found a lot of precious jewelry in Xiangqiao's room. It was a gift from the lady in the long room to the second lady."
Jiang Li was surprised for a moment. For the first time, there was anger in his voice, but when he listened carefully to that anger, it seemed to have caused another three-point ridicule.
She said: "It turns out that Xiangqiao is greedy for wealth and puts blame on others!"
