Chapter 195 - 195 Seeing the Jade Pendant



Therefore, the Su family did the opposite this time.

If Daya’s family could not take it anymore and publicized the matter, they were not afraid. After all, Old Master Su had already “informed” the village head, who would step forward to explain on their behalf that the jade pendant belonged to the Su family.

Old Master Su’s prestige and credibility were still there, so it was not difficult to obtain the village head’s trust.

Moreover, the village head was biased toward Daya’s family, not Su Yuniang.

In order not to arouse the village head’s resistance, Old Master Su did not say anything about Daya’s family just now.

The two of them arrived at Daya’s house.

Seeing that Su Can and Su Erlang were also there, the village head frowned.

Old Master Su took in the village head’s expression. His expression turned cold as he said to Su Can and his son, “Why aren’t the two of you staying at home obediently? Why are you here?”

Su Can turned around and said to Old Master Su, “Dad, Yuniang took the jade pendant. I’m asking Yuniang for it back!”

Old Master Su said sternly, “Didn’t I tell you not to show off?”

Su Can shrank his neck. “We didn’t show off. Just now, a villager came over and I chased him away.”

Old Master Su said coldly, “Get lost!”

“Dad…”

“Grandpa…”

“My words don’t work, do they?”

The atmosphere was very awkward.

Su Xiaoxiao said in amusement, “Why do you have to do this, Old Master? One is playing the good cop and the other is playing the bad cop. Who are you acting for?”

Old Master Su said, “Su Daya, this is our family matter. It has nothing to do with you. It’s our Su family’s fault for misunderstanding you last time. If you still have complaints, I’ll let you scold me for a while. However, please stay away from today’s incident.”

His words were watertight. If Su Xiaoxiao didn’t know what they were playing at, she would have believed them.

“Daughter, did someone come to cause trouble again?” Su Cheng walked over with his knife.

Seeing Su Cheng’s butcher knife, Su Can’s eyelids twitched, and he subconsciously wanted to run.

Su Cheng frowned impatiently. “Why is it you again? Are you trying to extort us?”

The village head tried to smooth things over. “Misunderstanding, it’s all a misunderstanding. Su Cheng, put down the knife first. Let’s talk nicely.”

Su Cheng asked Su Xiaoxiao, “Daughter, do you want to talk to them?”

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, “Dad, I haven’t told you about the jade pendant. The Su family pawned your jade pendant back then.”

Su Cheng’s eyes widened. “What?”

Su Erlang scolded, “Fatty Su, don’t talk nonsense! Do you have evidence?”

Su Yuniang stepped forward. “I can testify! Grandpa admitted it himself. The jade pendant was obtained from Uncle Su.”

Old Master Su’s original words were: Su Cheng had dropped it and they had picked it up.

Su Yuniang did not say that.

Su Yuniang said, “Village head, don’t be deceived by them. The jade pendant belongs to Uncle Su! They’re thieves! None of the men in this family are good!”

These words were too treasonous. Fatty Su could curse them like this, and so could Su Cheng. However, as the daughter of the Su family, Su Yuniang would be struck by lightning if she scolded the elders in the family.

The Su family was furious.

They knew that Su Yuniang was rebellious, but they did not know that she would go all out for Daya’s family.

Wasn’t she afraid that they wouldn’t allow her to move her household register?

Or was it that in her heart, the reputation of Daya’s family was more important than the rest of her life?

She, Su Yuniang, was so selfish!

Otherwise, she would not have snatched Madam Zhao’s midwife back then.

The village head’s focus was not on Su Yuniang’s disrespect. He asked in confusion, “Whose jade pendant is it?”

“Of course, it’s our Su family’s!” Su Can said. “Hurry up and return the other piece!”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled coldly. “Your Su family is really shameless.”

Su Cheng frowned and said, “How did my jade pendant become yours?”

“Dad, I’ll tell you.”

Su Xiaoxiao stood up and looked at the Su family in amusement.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t say that Yuniang took the jade pendant. I would say, ‘The jade pendant is a pair of pendants. There are two in total. Back then, our Su family sold one of the jade pendants, and the other was unfortunately lost. We searched for a long time but couldn’t find it. I thought that we wouldn’t be able to find it in our lifetime. It was only not long ago that Su Daya came to our house and accidentally left a jade pendant that I realized that it might be the heirloom that we lost back then. Today, Yuniang came back to discuss the relocation of the household register. I told her that it was fine, but you have to answer me honestly first: Where did the jade pendant from the Su family come from? Yuniang said that Su Cheng picked it up when he was young, and I was even more certain that I didn’t make a mistake. That jade pendant is the one our Su family lost!”
