MTL - The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn-Chapter 14 Given by this king
Chapter 14 Given by the King
The old lady pondered slightly, with a majestic look on her face, and glanced at Su Leyun lightly.
“If you can’t find it, you can’t find it. What are you waiting for?”
As soon as these words were spoken, Sun Jiarou's chest heaved and her body trembled slightly. She was obviously very angry. This isn't about searching for stolen goods, it's about using stolen goods to tease people!
"How could I just forget about my grandmother's beloved thing? If I didn't find it with my granddaughter, I should have searched the whole house."
"this…"
The old lady frowned slightly, searching her family members upside down just for a bracelet.
"Grandma, in the huge Su Mansion, I am the only one being searched. Is it possible that no one else is suspicious? When outsiders heard about this, they said that you were doing it for my own good. If they didn't know the reason, they just thought you were unkind."
Su Leyun pressed forward step by step, his delicate and bright eyebrows full of openness and openness.
Seeing this, Su Waner turned her head and glanced at Chun Xing. When she saw her nodding, she was slightly relieved and persuaded the old lady: "Sister Yun'er said, if you can't find it in my yard, just look for it in my yard. "
The old lady was quite pleased and patted Su Waner's hand.
“As you said, go in and search.”
Su Leyun took Sun Jiarou's arm and opened the courtyard door for people to enter.
A group of girls, brought by the people from the old lady’s yard and the housekeeper, entered the door in a grand manner.
Sun Jiarou's face turned pale. She saw them rummaging around like they were ransacking the house. She wanted to reprimand them several times, but was stopped by Su Leyun.
The fun is still to come, how can we stop it now?
Su Leyun leaned close to her mother's ear and lowered her voice: "Don't worry, mother, just watch."
In the time it took to burn an incense stick, the maids searched Chaohua Xiaozhu inch by inch, and Nanny Zhao stepped forward to report.
“Old lady, not found.”
"Impossible! I saw with my own eyes that the lady hid the jade bracelet under the pillow!"
Chun Xing rushed into the bedroom with a pale face and took away the pillow in front of everyone. There was nothing underneath.
“Impossible, this is impossible!”
Chunxing couldn't believe her eyes. She searched around on the bed with her hands, but found nothing.
Seeing this, the old lady lowered her expression and patted the table hard.
“You are a brave slave who dares to accuse your master falsely! Pull her down and give her fifty lashes with a cane.”
Chunxing was frightened out of her courage, her body went limp, and she collapsed on the ground. How could a girl like her withstand fifty sticks? Even if she didn't die, she would still be disabled.
She rushed to Su Wan'er crawling on her feet, hugging her calf and begging hard.
“Miss, please, please help me, please help me!”
Chunxing did not seek mercy from the old lady who had offended her, but went to Su Waner instead. Everyone looked at her critically.
Su Waner's face couldn't hold back and she hurriedly pushed Chun Xing away.
"No matter how kind-hearted I am, I can't help you. Why don't you think about your family before you do such a stupid thing and let them be embarrassed along with you?"
Hearing the word "family", Chun Xing's face turned pale and her body suddenly lost strength.
"I did this alone. I hope the old lady will not involve my family."
Chunxing stood up, knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily, then took a deep look at Su Waner, and without looking back, she hit a stone pillar on the veranda outside the courtyard, and she lost her life at that time.
“Even if she knows the truth, you all also have a good memory. This is the consequence of betraying the Lord.”
The old lady glanced at everyone and placed the teacup in her hand heavily on the table.
Su Leyun watched them perform with cold eyes. Fortunately, after finding the bracelet last night, he asked Cuiliu to send it elsewhere. Otherwise, he would be the one who couldn't argue today.
In her previous life, Aunt Zhao found the bracelet directly from under the pillow. The news spread and the whole Kyoto knew that the daughter-in-law of the Su family was a shallow-sighted thief.
Because of this incident, she was pointed out and hid in her yard, not daring to go out for a long time.
Later, when she married into the Li family, she was often ridiculed and looked down upon because of this matter.
After reviving her life, she wanted to return all of this to Su Waner.
The old lady was worried about Chun Xing and wanted to suppress the house search, but she refused to let them do so.
Su Leyun raised her eyes slightly, but before she could speak, Aunt Zhao handed an object to the old lady.
“Old madam, although I didn’t find the jade bracelet, I found this.”
Looking at the apricot-yellow tassel dripping from the old lady's hand, Su Leyun was shocked. Oh no, it's the jade pendant of His Royal Highness Prince Jin!
After returning home, she hid the jade pendant in the cabinet. Today, when searching the courtyard, she forgot this!
“Royal jade pendant, where did you come from?”
The old lady’s eyes were solemn, and her voice contained a hint of caution and coercion that she didn’t usually have.
When Su Waner saw this, she looked panicked and tried to persuade her.
“Sister Yun’er, hiding royal items is a serious crime. Please return them as soon as possible.”
Su Wan'er added some extra fuel to her words, and sure enough, the old lady's expression changed, and the crutch in her hand hit the ground heavily.
“You bastard! Why don’t you tell the truth, where did this jade pendant come from?”
“It was given by His Highness!”
A clear male voice came from outside the courtyard. King Jin walked in front, accompanied by Su Hou and Su Ye, and gradually entered the door.
Everyone in the room stood up and saluted, and the girls and boys knelt on the ground.
King Jin raised his hand to signal everyone to get up, then walked up to the old lady, took the jade pendant in her hand, and handed it to Su Leyun again.
“Miss Yun’er, please put it away.”
Su Leyun lowered his eyebrows and held the jade pendant by the tassel in order to avoid touching it.
“Thank you, Your Highness, King Jin.”
“Miss Yun’er, you’re welcome.”
The King of Jin chuckled lightly, looked the master up and down, and was led by Su Hou to sit on the main seat.
“Everyone, please sit down.”
King Jin spoke, and everyone sat down. The old lady sat first on the right, her eyes turning twice between King Jin and Su Leyun.
She secretly wondered in her heart, since she was found, her granddaughter had only been to her grandfather’s house. How did she know His Royal Highness Prince Jin? He was favored and given a jade pendant.
Su Waner glanced at King Jin from the corner of her eye and frowned slightly.
King Jin is famous for not being close to women. When did this hometown climb?
Su Hou sat first on the left. After King Jin drank tea to soothe his throat, he spoke cautiously.
“I wonder what the prince’s orders are when he comes this time?”
King Jin smiled ashamedly, his eyes fell on Su Leyun, and he spoke in a deep voice.
"Yun'er was worried about not being able to enter the family tree, so she specifically asked me to find Po Wen, who delivered Mrs. Hou's baby, to prove her identity. Unfortunately, the Xiaowang faction was a step late after all, and she was already out of breath when they found Po Wen."
Looking across the crowd, King Jin understood clearly.
They say the eldest lady of the Su family is a talented woman, but now she seems to be ruthless.
“The matter didn’t work out, so I’m here to apologize to Miss Yun’er.”
Su Leyun's face turned red and white, and he cursed in his heart. This King of Jin really had a good mouth and could tell lies without blinking an eye.
When did she ask him to find someone, how could she dare to blame him...
