“Do you know what that Lord came to ask last time?”
“I know, it’s for a jade pendant. The shopkeeper checked the account book in front of him. The jade pendant was sold by two brothers from Huangtou Village and got 20 silver coins. I remember this thing clearly.”
“I heard that jade pendant is not simple!”
“That’s right, even He Daren came here to ask in person, so how can it be simple? I heard it was a noble from the capital who was investigating this matter.”
“They said he lost a child, is this jade pendant the child’s keepsake?”
“Hey, what you said is right. The jade pendant is a keepsake. Although He Daren didn’t say it clear, but he looks very anxious.”
“So that’s all?”
“Well, I heard this morning, in two days, there will be people from the capital who will come and investigate this matter thoroughly.”
“Ah, why I didn’t get such a good opportunity? If this jade pendant is in my hand, I can ask for rewards. I’ll be able to fly high branches, it’s a pity!”
“You think too much, someone like you will fly on high branches? You think beautifully!”
Although the voices of the two were small, Bai Dazhu, who shrunk in the corner, heard them clearly. He was so shocked that he couldn’t close his mouth for a long time. When the two guys walked away, he ran out of the pawnshop and went back to the Bai family.
When he returned to the Bai Family’s house, he saw a few people standing in their yard. Isn’t that Mrs. Liu’s brothers? What were they talking to his wife? Mrs. Liu just kept lowering her head and said nothing. Seeing Bai Dazhu came in, she busily came forward to ask: “You, do you really need to rob my niang’s hairpin?”
Bai Dazhu was not in the mood to argue with them. He quickly took out the hairpin from his sleeve and threw it in front of Mrs. Liu’s brothers: “Take it, take it away and don’t ever come back here again in the future. We, the Bai Family, don’t need a relative like you.”
Mrs. Liu’s brothers were overjoyed. They remembered this hairpin, their old mother refused to give it to them regardless of life and death.
Even after her brothers left, Mrs. Liu’s face still looked ugly. She was helpless to her maternal family. Her husband slapped the face of her maternal family in front of her. She was not happy inside her heart, but what can she say?
Who told her to let her maternal family not give her a face?
Bai Dazhu pulled Mrs. Liu into the house and went straight into their room, then locked the door.
“What are you doing?” Mrs. Liu asked.
Bai Dazhu took Mrs. Liu and sat down, then asked: “Do you remember that jade pendant?”
“What jade pendant?” Mrs. Liu asked.
“The jade pendant that was sold for 20 silver coins. It has a smiling Buddha carved on it, you said that it was your female ancestor’s dowry.”
Mrs. Liu thought of it and nodded her head quickly: “I remember, what about it?”
When Bai Dazhu repeated the gossip he heard in the pawnshop today, Mrs. Liu got so shocked: “How could this be? That jade pendant just fell from the picture frame before. It has nothing to do with us.”
Bai Dazhu gave her bad look: “You stupid woman, you don’t understand what I mean?”
Mrs. Liu didn’t understand, so she looked at Bai Dazhu with a puzzled look in the face: “What do you mean? I don’t understand.”
Bai Dazhu said: “I heard it clearly, that jade pendant is a keepsake. This thing came from our hands, they will definitely look for us. An official even personally came to ask about it, and in two days, there will be people from the capital coming to investigate this matter. These people will certainly not be ordinary. You think, if these people lose a son, don’t we have a son?”
