Chapter 290

Xu Qingyin led the Xu family's maids to toast at the main table earlier. At that time, many people ran to the main table to toast, and the scene seemed a bit crowded.

Xu Qingyin's Nanzhu was probably squeezed out at that time.

At the main table, Mrs. Song heard Xu Qingyin's words, and immediately ordered the servants in the family to find the pearl for Xu Qingyin. Since it fell at the main table, it should be on the ground around the table.

The servants of the Hu family began to look for it, but they couldn't find it.

Finally, a gentle voice sounded: "I seemed to see Mrs. Lu bent her waist earlier, as if picking something up."

As soon as this was said, everyone around looked at Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao didn't pay attention to these things at first, she really thought that Xu Qingyin's Nanzhu had dropped, but it turned out that the spearhead finally fell on her head.

At this time, if she didn't know that Xu Qingyin's target was aimed at her, she would be a fool.

Lu Jiao quickly turned her head to look at the woman who identified her just now. This woman turned out to be Li Yuqin, Li Yuyao's younger sister.

The county magistrate's wife also saw that it was Li Yuqin who identified Lu Jiao, and her face was ashen.

In any case, Lu Jiao was considered a distinguished guest of her Hu family today, and her relatives in her house even pointed out that Lu Jiao might have picked up the Nanzhu on the ground. This was not only slapping Lu Jiao in the face, but also her Hu family's face.

Mrs. Song was so angry that she wanted to curse.

But Xu Qingyin didn't look at her, looked at Lu Jiao, and said slowly: "Miss Lu, did you pick up my Nanzhu? If you pick it up, can you return it to me? My father gave it to me." Yes, it's very precious, I know that people like you haven't seen many good things, it's normal to fall in love with it for a while, besides, it's not considered stealing if you pick it up, can you return it to me?"

Xu Qingyin said in a good voice.

At the banquet, everyone looked at Xu Qingyin and then at Lu Jiao, but many people suspected that Lu Jiao might have picked it up.

Because country women haven't seen many good things, and it's normal for them to be greedy when they suddenly see Nanzhu dropped by others.

But if this Mrs. Lu really picked it up, she would be ashamed, even if she picked it up.

Xiaoju, the maid beside Xu Qingyin, looked at Lu Jiao pleadingly and said, "Miss Lu, please give it back to my young lady."

Feng Zhi beside Lu Jiao came out with an ugly expression and protected Lu Jiao, "Although the pearls are precious, my wife has not yet realized the reason why she will not return them after picking them up."

After Feng Zhi finished speaking, he looked at Li Yuqin and asked in a deep voice: "Miss Li, don't think that what you said with red mouth and white teeth is all right, I will ask you one more question here, did you really see that my wife picked up a lot of money?" Miss Xu's Nanzhu? Remember, if it is finally found out that my master did not pick up Miss Xu's Nanzhu, you will not be able to escape the crime of slander."

When Li Yuqin heard Feng Zhi's words, a look of fear immediately appeared on his face, and a pair of eyes carefully glanced at Xu Qingyin.

She wasn't sure, Lu Jiao had Nanzhu on her body, if she didn't, she would be ashamed.

Li Yuqin was in a dilemma and regretted helping Xu Qingyin.

Xu Qingyin saw that Li Yuqin was about to reveal her flaws, so she quickly said, "Miss Lu, don't make things difficult for Miss Li, she is a relative of the Hu family, so it's not easy to identify you, I know this has nothing to do with you, you just go along with it." If I picked it up, it’s not considered stolen, please return the Nanzhu to me.”

Just as Lu Jiao was about to stand up and speak, a figure outside the banquet hall rushed in like a whirlwind and rushed towards Li Yuqin.

The visitor raised his hand and slapped Li Yuqin hard, causing Li Yuqin's head to hum.

Everyone in the banquet hall was stunned by this sudden scene. They all subconsciously looked at the assailant, and found that it was Mrs. Song's eldest daughter-in-law, Li Yuyao.

Li Yuyao's face was livid, she gritted her teeth and glared at Li Yuqin angrily: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, it's because I recognized Jiaojiao as my younger sister, or because I gave the bracelet to Jiaojiao and didn't give it to you? You If you are jealous of her, you will frame her with others, and I will not have a sister like you in the future."

Li Yuqin didn't expect her sister to embarrass her like this on the spot, and immediately burst into tears.

Li Yuqin's mother felt distressed, she walked over to protect Li Yuqin, and said angrily to Li Yuyao, "Li Yuyao, this is your own sister, you treat your own sister like this, why are you so cruel?"

Li Yuyao looked at her mother and younger sister with cold eyes: "I am ruthless or you are ruthless. Don't you know that Jiaojiao saved our mother and child? If you have the heart to love me, you should love her well. If you don't , there would be no me and my child, what did you do, do you still have your heart?"

After Li Yuyao finished speaking, she didn't want to see her mother and sister anymore, her family let her down so much.

She turned around and walked in front of Lu Jiao, stood in front of her, looked at Xu Qingyin and said in a deep voice.

"Xu Qingyin, are you sure Jiaojiao picked up your Nanzhu?"

Xu Qingyin quickly glanced at Xiaoju who was beside her, Xiaoju nodded slightly, Xu Qingyin was sure, earlier she saw many people running to the main table to toast the magistrate's wife, because of Xie Yunjin's indifferent attitude I got annoyed, so I wanted to clean up Lu Jiao.

Seeing a lot of people running to the main table to toast, the scene was a bit chaotic, so she took the pearl off her head when no one was looking, and let Xiao Ju stuff it into Lu Jiao's purse.

Now Nanzhu is in Lu Jiao's purse.

Xu Qingyin looked at Li Yuyao with certainty in her mind and said: "Mrs. Song had someone search around but couldn't find it, and I haven't been to other places, so I came here for a while. It's impossible for Nanzhu to disappear properly. In addition, sister Yuqin said that she saw Mrs. Lu picking up something, so I think that Nanzhu must be on Mrs. Lu now."

"If Sister Li doesn't believe it, let someone search Miss Lu's body. I believe that Nan Zhu can be found."

Seeing Xu Qingyin's affirmative expression, Li Yuyao's heart sank. She had seen too many such dirty things in the backyard, that is, Xu Qingyin played tricks on Jiaojiao.

Li Yuyao couldn't figure out why Xu Qingyin was trying to trick Jiaojiao, but Jiaojiao didn't know her.

Li Yuyao quickly thought about how to solve this situation, but it was absolutely impossible for people to search Jiaojiao's body.

"Xu Qingyin, this is the Hu Mansion, not your Xu Mansion. Do you search people when you say you want them to be searched?"

Xu Qingyin cried: "Then what if she doesn't take it out? My father gave it to me. It's fine if it's an ordinary thing. It's very precious, let alone it was given by my father."

At the end of Xu Qingyin's speech, she cried pitifully.

When the women around saw her like this, they felt sympathy for her. Some people looked at Lu Jiao and said, "Miss Lu, why don't you have someone search you to prove your innocence."

Before Lu Jiao could speak, a cold voice came from outside the banquet hall: "Why do you search my wife? Is it because we are poor and you are rich?"
