So the people in Shangshu Mansion don't know yet that this is the easiest time to put stolen money into Shangshu Mansion. If she waits for Yu Xiheng to come back, she probably won't even be able to get in.
"These things are just my way of expressing my apology. After all, we are all a family, and my aunt also knows that she was wrong."
[As a family, you are going to help the concubine frame us! So shameless! 】
Juan Juan thought angrily that he couldn't let his elder brother accept these things. No matter what was inside, these things might turn into sharp knives stabbing the Shangshu Mansion at any time.
She pointed her little finger at the golden nanmu box and shouted, "W-Juanjuan wants..."
Yu Shixu paused slightly, but said nothing. The younger sister is extremely smart and must have her own plans.
Su Minglian smiled as brightly as a flower when he heard Juanjuan said he wanted it.
For the first time, she felt that this little broom star looked so pleasing to the eye.
The two older ones are difficult to deal with. Isn’t this smaller one also difficult to deal with? If this little broom star is eliminated, Yiyu Shixu and Yu Quezhi, the two sisters, will definitely stay.
This was the first time in a long time that Su Minglian did things so smoothly. She happily asked the maid to take the box over.
There seemed to be something very heavy inside, and the maid's hand holding the box was shaking slightly.
Under Su Minglian's expectant gaze, Juanjuan stretched out her short, round legs and kicked the box.
"Yeah!" The maid didn't hold it firmly and the box fell down.
"Bang--"
A three-legged golden crow made of pure gold fell out of the box. It was heavy and as big as a bluestone brick. The most important thing was that the three-legged golden crow engraved on it was lifelike. This carving craftsmanship can be called a national treasure.
"Wow, what a big lump of gold!" Juanjuan looked at Su Minglian in surprise and said in an innocent tone, "Did aunt give it to us?"
Su Minglian did not expect that the contents of the box would fall out. She glared at the aggrieved maid, and then smiled reluctantly, "Yes, yes, my aunt specially found the good things to make amends for your mother."
"It's for mother..."
Juanjuan was extremely happy and said in a joyful tone, "Auntie is so nice~"
Su Minglian laughed, feeling happier than Juan Juan.
[What a brainless little broom star, he just said a few words and got fooled. 】
However, what Juan Juan said next shocked her.
"Jianjuan wants everyone to know that Juanjuan has such a good aunt~"
Su Minglian's smile faltered and she hurriedly stopped her, "That's not necessary. As long as Juanjuan likes this gift, it's fine. There's no need to let outsiders know, in case someone misses this gift and sneaks it away."
She deliberately scared Juan Juan, but Juan Juan didn't listen at all and didn't believe what she said.
Seeing the housekeeper coming this way, Juanjuan leaned out from his second brother's arms and shouted with a smile, "Uncle housekeeper~ Ni, look at this golden smash!"
Su Minglian's face turned green, and she took two steps forward to cover Juan Juan's mouth.
"What are you doing?" Yu Quezhi took a step back while holding Juan Juan, looking at her warily.
"I..." Su Minglian smiled sarcastically and put down her hands angrily.
"Auntie gave this to us. Auntie is such a good person!"
The housekeeper was extremely surprised when he saw the gold brick on the ground. He seemed to have realized something, and looked at Su Minglian with extremely complicated eyes.
"Uncle Housekeeper, can you help me pick up the gold? I'm going to take it out to show everyone the big gold gift from my aunt!"
"Of course, miss."
Seeing the housekeeper bending down to pick up the piece of gold, Su Minglian immediately gave the maid a wink, and the maid picked it up first.
"Jianjuan, look, this is given to you by your aunt. We don't need to let outsiders know, right? Just stay at home and watch it by yourself."
Su Minglian was sweet-talking and good at tempting. If outsiders knew about it, the discord inside would definitely be discovered.
But Juan Juan shook his head and looked at Su Minglian seriously, "No, Juan Juan wants everyone to know that my aunt is a very generous person!"
After saying that, she patted her second brother's arm and pointed to the box in the maid's hand, "I want it~"
Yu Chue took a step forward and stretched out his hand, "You're not saying you want to give it to us, give it to me."
The maid looked at Su Minglian, who had a disheveled face, and then at Yu Quezhi, who felt extremely oppressive, and held the box in her hands without daring to hand it out.
"Auntie, why doesn't this sister give it to us? Tell her quickly~"
Juan Juan asked in surprise, with a smile on his pretty face.
[I also want to frame our family and put you in a dilemma, hum! 】
Yu Quezhi bent his eyes and smiled brightly.
My sister’s little head is so smart!
How could Su Minglian dare to give things away? This kind of thing should not be publicized in the first place. What if everyone in the capital knew about it? The Wen family has to send someone to kill her!
[I knew that every time I encountered this little broom star, something bad would happen! 】
Juan Juan silently made another note to Su Minglian in his mind: This is the second time he called Juan Juan a broom star!
"Auntie, what's wrong with you? Don't you want to waste your money on Juan Juan?"
Su Minglian smiled hard, "Jianjuan, my aunt made a mistake when she went out in a hurry. What she wanted to give you was something else."
Juan Juan pursed his lips, with disappointment in his clean eyes, "Auntie, you didn't want to give it away, so you lied to Juan Juan, right?"
"Haha, how could that be possible..." Su Minglian wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and felt guilty for a while when she saw the sharp and questioning eyes of Yu Shixu and Yu Chuezhi.
"My aunt really made a mistake. What she originally wanted to give you was something else."
As soon as she said this, Juan Juan asked curiously, "What is it?"
"Haha, it must be a good thing."
[When you get back, you can use whatever you want to fool me. What does a child know? 】
Juan Juan curled her lips unhappily, "Auntie won't fool Juan Juan with something bad, right?"
Su Minglian's eyes were surprised for a moment, as if to say: How do you know?
"How could it be? It must be something good, much better than this piece of gold."
Juanjuan didn't believe what she said at all.
Yu Shixu raised his eyebrows and turned his eyes slightly.
"Could it be that the aunt is talking about the South China Sea Shark Pearl?"
"What?!" Su Minglian made more noise than anyone else, with a look of disbelief on her face.
Yu Shixu said calmly, "The only thing more valuable than this three-legged golden crow is the South China Sea Shark Pearl in my aunt's hand. I didn't expect my aunt to be so generous.
Juan Juan, thank our aunt quickly. "
Although Juan Juan didn't know what the South China Sea Shark Pearl was, he knew it must be something good just by looking at Su Minglian's face.
Her eyes lit up, "Thank you, aunt! Auntie is so kind to Juan Juan~"
Su Minglian's face was distorted, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard Yu Shixu's light words and wanted to take away her South Sea Shark Pearl.
