Biluo's face turned pale with fright.
Qiao picked it up and looked at it. It was from Ruicaitang, and it had the Ruicaitang logo on it.
Ruicaido is a jewelry store that has become popular among Kyoto ladies in recent years. It is known for its fine workmanship and naturally has high prices. Such a precious thing is now used by Mother Cui.
Mrs. Qiao still remembers that on the eve of her birthday a few years ago, Biluo accidentally bumped into Mr. Hou going to Ruicaitang. Biluo thought that Mr. Hou was preparing a birthday gift for Mrs. Qiao, and told her happily.
It turned out that the Marquis completely forgot about her birthday and used the excuse of being busy with official duties. She didn't have any doubts. She was really stupid.
Now that she saw this pair of earrings, Qiao felt even more ironic. Her efforts over the past few years seemed to have only been rewarded with a dagger, which gave her an extremely strong blade.
Qiao took a few deep breaths to adjust her emotions. Then he took the earrings away and went to Renshouju.
As soon as Mrs. Qiao walked to the door of Renshou Ju, she saw the Marquis also walking in the direction of Ren Shou Ju in a hurry. It seemed that he had just come out of court and had not even taken off his court clothes.
"Hey, what a coincidence. The Marquis is not going to see the Cuizhu. I am traveling with the Marquis. Why don't we come together?" Mrs. Qiao smiled sweetly.
"I'm going to see what a maid is doing."
"I heard that Cuizhu's hair was all gone after being burned by the fire, and her face was even skinless and fleshless. Her clothes were almost burned off. She wore only a bellyband and let the men carry her out. Do you think this made Cuizhu How will Cuizhu meet people in the future, hey..." Mrs. Qiao sighed again, "I don't know if Cuizhu has a sweetheart. If her sweetheart saw her, she would be heartbroken to death."
Gu Jing'an's face turned pale.
"Cuizhu is a maid in the mansion, how can she have a sweetheart?"
"It's impossible to tell. You know people but don't know their hearts. Maybe you even have children. The Marquis is a scholar, how do you know this." Qiao was full of yin and yang.
Gu Jing'an himself was anxious. Cuizhu was indeed his childhood sweetheart. He rushed to see her, but he didn't meet her and felt like he had been stabbed several times by Qiao.
It hurts my heart!
"If the Marquis doesn't go, then I will go in by myself." After saying that, Mrs. Qiao entered Renshou Residence with her two maids.
At this time Cuizhu had woken up, she was lying on the bed, and three doctors were surrounding her.
When Mrs. Qiao saw her, she felt that she was really blind before. This was not the treatment of a maid.
"Lan Xin, why are you here too?" the old lady asked.
"Mother Cui is a person who has worked hard and achieved great results, so I should come and visit." Mrs. Qiao emphasized the words 'hard work has achieved great results'. Anyway, these words made people feel uncomfortable, but she couldn't fault her.
"Mama Cui's life is safe, so I'm relieved." Qiao changed the subject and took out the pair of earrings, "Also, Mama Cui said Biluo stole these earrings? Is there any evidence?"
Cuizhu knew in her heart that Mrs. Qiao was not here to visit her, she was clearly here to investigate.
"Madam, these earrings are really mine. Chuntao and Chunying have all seen me wearing them, right?"
The two little maids named Chuntao and Chunying came out quickly to testify.
"That's a coincidence. I also gave Biluo a pair of earrings like this for Biluo's birthday last year." Mrs. Qiao imitated Cuizhu's words again, "Siqin, Zhishu, you two should have seen Biluo too. Are you going to wear these earrings?"
Si Qin Zhishu understood instantly and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, Biluo often shows off to us. I even said not to show off, but if I don't, something will happen."
"Madam, I don't dare to show off anymore, madam, please spare my life." Biluo also said quickly.
"In this case, then this matter is over," Qiao's voice became colder, "Cuizhu, I have to warn you, if you dare to rely on me for losing something, I will not forgive you next time. you."
Cuizhu was so anxious that she almost jumped up from the bed and hit someone. She put this earring on Biluo bed with her own hands. This earring was also a token of love between her and the Marquis. It was worth a lot of money, but it was so unknown to someone. Taken away.
She didn't eat the mutton and got into trouble. She lost her wife and lost her army.
Mr. Qiao left Renshouju. There was no way to prove this, so he treated the other person with his own medicine.
"Madam, what should I do with these pendants?" Biluo asked in a low voice.
"Isn't it yours?" These earrings are made of precious stones and beads strung with gold thread. They are worth a lot of money. "If you feel upset, you can take them to a pawn shop."
"Thank you, Madam."
Just as Mrs. Qiao was about to go to Qingyun Residence, she suddenly thought of something, "We haven't seen him for a few days. It's time to go to the school to see Bochuan."
As soon as Mrs. Qiao arrived at the school, she saw Gu Bochuan hurriedly walking out.
"Bochuan, where are you going?" Qiao asked.
Gu Bochuan didn't expect Mrs. Qiao to come. He endured his sadness and saluted respectfully, "I've met my mother. I heard something happened at home. I'm worried...worried about you and my sister. I want to go back and have a look."
"You are interested. I am fine with Shengsheng. It's just that a rough servant named Cuizhu in the house was disfigured by the fire. It has nothing to do with you. There is no need to go back." Mrs. Qiao sat down and said, "The ancients said that young people should Don't listen to what's going on outside the window, and only read the books of sages, so study hard."
Qiao raised her head and looked at Gu Bochuan's expression with interest. More than ten years later, the executioner who could wipe out the Qiao family would have so much scheming and formidable power.
Sure enough, seeing the calm expression on his face, Mrs. Qiao chuckled, it really should not be underestimated.
Well, since he wants to act, then she should accompany him to act, and let him taste the heart-wrenching taste of murder.
"Do you know how to memorize the book that your husband taught you a few days ago? Please recite it to me." Qiao asked.
Gu Bochuan's heart felt like needles pricking his face, but his face remained calm, "The river is turbid, and it's wet; I'm not going to treat you with a wedding banquet; don't give up my beam, don't send my hair..."
"The poem is joyful, why does Bochuan read it so sadly, please be happy."
Gu Bochuan clenched his fists, his face was calm, but the jumping veins on his forehead betrayed him.
Gu Bochuan recited it again, and he performed the play of forcing a smile really well.
"By the way, I went to the Buddhist temple in the morning. Bochuan, please help me copy some scriptures. I will ask Biluo to pick them up in the evening and send them to the Buddhist temple for me to burn."
Qiao placed another thick stack of scriptures in front of Gu Bochuan.
"Yes, mother."
"Quickly copy it. You have to work hard to finish it before the sun goes down."
Mrs. Qiao was a little tired, so she returned to Qingyun Residence after leaving the school.
Mrs. Qiao left her maid Siqin outside to observe the situation in Renshouju.
Not long after Ms. Qiao returned to Qingyun Residence, she saw Gu Jingan sneaking into Renshou Residence. Isn’t it sneaky to look three times at a time?
When Gu Jing'an heard about Cuizhu's situation, he was heartbroken. Cuizhu had the best face, what if his appearance was damaged?
