Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt

The jewelry would definitely not run away on its own, but there is probably no thief in the capital who dares to come to the Zhennan Palace to steal things, so this box of jewelry must have been stolen by a "house thief".

Shen Xuanheng's face was as gloomy as water. He actually dared to steal the lady's things. He must be tired of living!

However, even though he was angry, he did not interfere and let Su Xuqing handle the household affairs.

Su Xuqing was not in a hurry. She placed the jewelry box on the table and ordered, "Yinhuan, ask the maids from Room 4 to come over."

"Yes!"

Yinhuan hurried to call for help, and soon six maids were standing in the room.

Su Xuqing glanced at them, and then said in a gentle tone: "We have been together for a while, and I am also a person who cherishes old friendships. Whoever stole the jewelry should hand it over now, and I, Madam, will forgive him for the past."

The six maids looked at each other, but none of them admitted it.

Qingzhu looked at his nose and his heart, reached out and touched Yinhuan, then said: "Yinhuan, just admit it."

Yinhuan was stunned for a moment, then waved her hands in panic, "What are you talking about? I didn't steal anything from the lady!"

Qingzhu pretended to be disappointed with someone and sighed, "You are Madam's personal maid, and you are most likely to come into contact with Madam's things. And last night I saw you lying on the bed holding a golden hairpin and laughing. Now that Madam has given you a chance, you should admit it quickly, otherwise she will punish you."

"I didn't! You...you wronged me!"

Yinhuan looked aggrieved and tears welled up in her eyes.

Su Xuqing had no expression on her face when she heard this. She looked at Qingzhu calmly, "Is everything you said true?"

"Absolutely true!"

Qingzhu said confidently, "Yinhuan put the golden hairpin in her bag and hid it under the bed last night. I saw it with all my heart! If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see it!"

"Ma'am, I didn't!"

Yinhuan burst into tears and her eyes turned red from crying.

Su Xuqing stood up slowly. Shen Xuanheng beside her smiled coldly and stared at the maid named Qingzhu.

"Madam, please follow me. The things are here..."

As Qingzhu was speaking, Su Xuqing suddenly slapped her in the face. Qingzhu staggered back to the corner, her eyes full of surprise.

"Ma'am, why did you hit me?"

Su Xuqing looked at him coldly, "You really are a dog that can't change its bad habits. You've been quiet for a few days and you're making trouble again. How dare you steal my jewelry and frame Yinhuan?"

Qingzhu clenched her fists in her sleeves. She didn’t understand why Su Xuqing trusted Yinhuan so much?

"Madam, I didn't frame her. She really stole the things. You can't be so indiscriminate." Qingzhu knelt on the ground and cried.

It's just crying and acting pitiful, everyone can do that.

Su Xuqing sneered and said slowly: "First, Yinhuan is timid and would not do such a thing. Second, even if she stole it, she should have taken it out of the palace and sold it instead of hiding in the bed in the middle of the night and laughing secretly, and then you just happened to see it. Don't be smart if you don't have a brain!"

Qingzhu's face changed, and then she fell to the ground and said nervously: "Madam, I made a mistake before, but now I have corrected it. How could I wrongly accuse Yinhuan? And what you said is just speculation. What if Yinhuan was really stolen? People's hearts will change!"

Yinhuan was extremely sad at this moment. She had kindly helped Qingzhu return to the fourth room, but she had never expected that she would frame her like this. In just this short moment, she shed countless tears.

"You're quite stubborn. In that case, I'll show you the evidence."

Su Xuqing picked up the jewelry box, reached out to take a look at the box, and a layer of light golden powder sprinkled directly on the surface of the wooden box.

"I have sprinkled the powder of money grass on this box. If anyone touches this box privately, their hands will become red and itchy, and a layer of bumps will appear."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qingzhu's face changed drastically.

No wonder my hands felt so itchy last night. I thought I was bitten by some insect, but I didn’t expect that Su Xuqing had a backup plan.

"Why don't you speak?"

Su Xuqing looked at Qingzhu with a scrutinizing gaze and said sarcastically, "Weren't you very sharp-tongued just now?"

"lady……"

Qingzhu's body trembled uncontrollably, "Madam, I was wrong! I was really wrong! I won't dare to do it again, please forgive me!"

Su Xuqing laughed angrily. She said calmly, "I remember a few days ago, you were also in this place and said the same thing. Later, I gave you a chance, but you didn't seem to learn your lesson."

Qingzhu looked at Yinhuan and said, "Hurry up and say something for me. Don't forget my father's kindness."

Yinhuan clenched her teeth, turned her head away, and refused to pay any more attention to her.

Su Xuqing nodded in satisfaction. This little girl finally learned her lesson. She gently touched Yinhuan's head with one hand and said softly, "Yinhuan, remember this. Never trust anyone who has hurt you. You may gain new insights by reading a book again, but there will not be a new ending."

"Miss, I remember it!"

Yinhuan nodded heavily and mustered up the courage to glare at Qingzhu.

Qing Zhu was immediately extremely annoyed, "You little bitch, you are so ungrateful! You are so ungrateful!"

"shut up!"

Su Xuqing slapped him backhandedly, then said coldly: "You guys drag her out, let the housekeeper deal with her according to the house rules, and then throw her out of the Zhennan Palace!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Several maids dragged Qingzhu out of the house.

Su Xuqing retracted her gaze, walked up to Yinhuan, and wiped away her tears. "Alright, stop crying. Go find the jewelry, and come with me to the Painting Boat Festival later."

"Uh-huh!"

Yinhuan ran to her room in small steps, then fumbled under the bed for a long time and took out a gray package. She opened it and her face changed immediately.

Qingzhu actually broke all the gold hairpins and hair accessories inside, leaving none of them usable.

Yinhuan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot and found Su Xuqing, "Madam, what should we do?"

The Painted Boat Festival was approaching, and all the jewelry was destroyed. Su Xuqing was a little worried. If she went there without taking anything, it wouldn't matter if she was laughed at, but she was afraid that she would lose face for the palace.

"Don't worry, ma'am. I'll think of a way."

Shen Xuanheng smiled calmly, stood up and left the room.

Less than half an hour later, he came back with a brand new jewelry box in his hand, which was filled with all kinds of jewelry.

Su Xuqing was dazzled by what she saw. "Where did you get it from, my husband?"

Shen Xuanheng smiled mysteriously, "It's borrowed. You can use it first and return it to me when you're done."

Su Xu's clear and watery peach blossom eyes seemed to be thoughtful. These hairpins and jewelry were all things used by women. The fact that she lent them out so generously showed that the relationship between this woman and Shen Xuanheng was extraordinary.

Thinking of this, Su Xuqing felt a little sad.

"what happened?"

Shen Xuanheng saw that Su Xuqing was not in a good mood, so he thought for a moment and asked, "Don't you like these styles? Do you want me to exchange them for something else?"
