The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 623 Got it

Mother Qiu couldn't bear to see her wife's stubborn appearance, and whispered to Lin Jiaojiao, "I'm dissatisfied with the third girl, my wife is happy, but she hasn't sat down yet."

"Is there such a happy event?" Lin Jiaojiao was happy at first, but worried whether it would be difficult for Second Aunt to give birth again at her age.

There was not much joy on Mrs. Liu's face, but she sighed helplessly: "If you were born a daughter, it would not be a happy event for your second uncle."

These words made the atmosphere a bit sad. Pregnant people shouldn't worry about it. Lin Jiaojiao quickly comforted her: "Auntie, relax, it's a great news for the Chen family. Grandmother must be happy to know about it."

The old lady of the Chen family has never been patriarchal. What she values ​​most is talent, otherwise she would not have given the housekeeper's key to the second room.

"That's true." Mrs. Liu nodded in agreement, with a little less worry on her face.

Chen Luo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Mother, you should rest when you are pregnant. The third sister is also the matriarch of the family, so she will definitely be able to handle this matter well."

Chen Luo's tone was hurried, and he wished he could push Mrs. Liu out quickly.

It was only then that Liu Shi, who noticed Chen Luo, couldn't help but look stern, and reprimanded in a cold voice: "The girl you disciplined is now a thief, and you, the master, have the greatest responsibility!"

Chen Luo lowered her head guiltily, as if she was wronged.

"Second Aunt, you can rest first, and leave Ping'er's business to me." Lin Jiaojiao took the initiative to take over Ping'er's stealing of money.

She could tell that both Mother Qiu and Luo Luo hoped that this matter would be handled by her.

Mother Qiu was thinking about the second aunt's health, but she was still not sure what Luo Luo was thinking.

The only thing she can be sure of is that Luo Luo knows about Ping'er stealing money.

Mrs. Liu only felt dizzy after the gasp just now, so she stopped holding on and nodded slightly: "Alright, then Jiaojiao will have to work hard."

"It's all a family, don't be wary."

Someone untied Ping'er, and Lin Jiaojiao brought her back to Qingxue Pavilion for interrogation.

At the same time, on the way, Qingtao was asked to search the room where Ping'er lived.

In the hall of Qingxue Pavilion.

Ping'er knelt in the middle and shivered, her head was like an eggplant beaten by frost, she couldn't lift it up.

Lin Jiaojiao sat on the top seat, while Chen Luo was restless, looking at Ping'er from time to time.

"The last few times the warehouse was stolen, but it was also your fault?" Lin Jiaojiao asked nonchalantly.

Ping'er was so startled that her body trembled for a while, she didn't answer, but she nodded and admitted.

"Why do you want to do this theft?"

Lin Jiaojiao's interrogation attitude has always been relatively easy-going, and she never starts to torture to extract a confession as soon as she arrives, and she never frightens people with anger so that she dare not speak.

But it's obvious that Ping'er is a very timid girl, she's trembling with fright right now, maybe she can't even speak.

"Slave..." Ping'er shuddered and faltered for a long time, but didn't even have a complete sentence.

Xuemei was a little annoyed and said: "Your Majesty asked you something, but you told the truth, why did you bite your tongue?"

Lin Jiaojiao didn't stop Xuemei from continuing, she took a sip from the teacup, waiting for Ping'er to speak to her.

And after Xuemei finished speaking ferociously, she continued: "My mother is the most soft-hearted, as long as you tell the reason, since you are the person next to the fourth girl, my mother will not make things difficult for you."
