An Yuxiao also had a cold face. He had been in the officialdom for a long time and was used to seeing faces of all colors. Although she was the daughter of a British duke, she, a woman, dared to come to An's house to point fingers. Who was this being slapped in the face? Suddenly, , An Yuxiao's originally softened expression suddenly seemed to be covered with ice.
Jifu didn't know what the old lady meant by this. The courtyard of An's mansion was crowded with maids and slaves. When she entered the house just now, she seemed to have heard from the maids in the courtyard that the third lady and Mr. Lin had a private life.
She was sure that Mr. Lin would not be her son. She knew her son well and would never marry a woman who was not helpful to her. Besides, the entire Lin family would not agree to this. She was still confident that her son would be his son. You have to understand the importance.
At this time, An Xiyue was neither humble nor overbearing, and said slowly and calmly: "Mrs. Lin came just in time. A man's jade pendant fell from the third sister's body. In the Great Northern Dynasty, giving jade to someone had great significance. Either he wanted to marry someone or not. I want to get married, but my grandmother looks very worried and is interrogating..."
In the Northern Dynasties, there was a saying that a good match was made with gold and jade. The gift of jade pendants between men and women represented that the marriage was finalized, or that they loved each other and were ready to make a marriage.
I saw a warm, delicate and high-quality jade pendant suddenly appeared in An Xiyue's hand. The jade pendant was round and translucent. At first glance, it was not something ordinary men would wear.
Ji Fu frowned as she looked at it, her face turned cold, and her eyebrows stood up. She recognized the jade. It was a piece of jade that her grandfather accidentally got when she was young during the war. The jade was completely transparent and round, and her father gave it to her. As a dowry, when a son and a daughter were born, they hired skilled craftsmen to carve them into two pieces of jade pendants. There were only two pieces in the world. The son, as his legitimate grandson, carved the word "Lin" on them, and the daughter would marry in the future. There is no inscription on the person, but the two pieces of jade have a matching opening.
So Ji Fu recognized him at a glance.
Then, Mrs. Ji turned her eyes to her son and said coldly: "What's going on?"
Lin Ji didn't know how the jade pendant appeared in An Xiyue's hand. He had just supported his mother and squeezed through the crowd. He only heard them talking about it. The Mr. Lin in their mouths was probably referring to him, because An Xiyue was standing proudly among the crowd. In the middle, that's why he shouted those words anxiously.
At this time, Lin Ji was filled with anger, veins were popping up, and a pair of eagle eyes shot out a cold light, as if he wanted to eat people.
Everyone looked at it, guessed, and made up their minds. It turned out that this jade pendant really belonged to Mr. Lin. The third lady really had an affair with Mr. Lin. It was really hard to tell. The usually gentle and amiable third lady would also do it. Do this kind of thing.
In an instant, Lin Ji was very fast and snatched the jade pendant from An Xiyue's hand in the blink of an eye. This was obviously his personal belongings, how could it appear in An Xiyue's hand.
Lin Ji thought carefully, suddenly his eyes turned cold, and his face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. Last night when he left An Mansion, he encountered a group of maids blocking the way. He was angry at that time, and the maid in green lowered her head and apologized repeatedly, but he didn't pay attention. Maybe it was stolen at that time.
Suddenly, Lin Ji rushed toward An Xiyue with anger. Those maids must have been ordered by An Xiyue. He felt that he had fallen into someone else's trap.
At this time, An Xiyue smiled lightly at Lin Ji. The smile was so meaningful that Lin Ji was frightened. This woman was playing tricks again.
Lin Ji tried his best to warn himself not to get angry or to be fooled. This woman was very cunning. He came today just to keep An Xilin and he must not stumble in front of her again.
Then, Lin Ji forced himself to take a deep breath. He had seen An Xiyue's eloquence, so he let out a heavy breath and said in a deep voice: "My son's jade was accidentally lost. It turned out that it fell on my uncle's house. ”
An Yuxiao's mouth twitched again when he heard Lin Ji say "uncle", but he couldn't answer.
An Xilin also felt relieved at this time, and said repeatedly, "My cousin is really careless. When you came to visit my mother, you accidentally lost it in Linlangyuan. Originally, my mother wanted to return it to you, but you left in a hurry. forgotten……"
Everyone found it incredible. Just now, the third lady had acted shocked and angry, as if she didn't recognize whose jade it was. If it weren't for the word "Lin" engraved on the jade, the third lady would have killed her. In this moment, , she suddenly recognized it, the change was mind-boggling.
The third lady also felt that what she said was not clever, and the corners of her lips raised a look of contempt. The more lies they told, the harder it was to hide them. The more they tried to explain, the more they felt they were covering up.
The second lady snorted disdainfully.
Jifu's thoughts kept changing. Although her son repeatedly promised that he came to the Anping Marquis Mansion because he was not interested in Anxilin, she still didn't believe what her son said to her. After all, her son was also a normal adult man, and Anxilin was Lin Wan was so beautiful that she captivated a lot of men back then. Now her daughter is even more stunning. From a woman's point of view, she has experienced many fights among wealthy families. She doesn't believe that her son will face such beauty. Don't be tempted.
While Ji Fu was thinking about everything, An Xiyue said softly: "If Master Lin is interested in Third Sister, this jade pendant should be regarded as a token of love for Third Sister. Third Sister is so gentle and kind, so marry Cousin Lin Ji." My third sister would not be wronged by being my first wife, but my mother saw that the third sister was still young and wanted to keep her as my grandmother’s companion for another two years. After all, the third sister often copied Buddhist scriptures for my grandmother. If the third sister married early, my grandmother would also I will be reluctant to part with it.”
Then An Xiyue didn't give everyone a chance to speak, and said slowly: "It just so happened that Mrs. Lin came to our house as a guest, and her father's misunderstanding about the third sister was resolved. This is really a great event to get married. In this way, the third sister There is no need to be punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for no reason. Alas, I have wronged my sister for this matter. The eldest sister should also apologize to the third sister and Aunt Lin. It turns out that all this is a misunderstanding, and there are those gossips. The bastard slave said that when he saw Third Miss and Young Master Lin having a secret meeting at night, they should be caught and their tongues cut out. If Mrs. Lin knows about this, it will be easier to handle."
Immediately, a group of servants and maids outside the door knelt on the ground.
Even the housekeeper knelt down in the middle of the road and said anxiously: "The villain deserves to die. The villain should not make random guesses. The villain should grow up and be blind. If he sees something he shouldn't see, the villain deserves to die."
"I am confused too. If I had known that Mrs. Lin was coming to propose marriage, I would not have gone to the study to report to the master. It was the villain who caused the third lady to be punished by the master and was punished by the master to kneel in the ancestral hall." Another boy working in the front yard said anxiously.
Lin Ji was so angry that he wanted to die on the spot. His face suddenly turned green with anger. His chest heaved violently with anger, as if staring at An Xiyue's face would make him vomit blood and die. How could there be such a hateful person in the world? woman.
Suddenly, he was so angry that he was speechless
