After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 16 Disposal
When Qiao Jingjing heard this, she was not surprised that she would throw dirty water on her.

On the first day, she knew that Cai Die was not a kind person, otherwise he wouldn't be so arrogant, taking her gold leaves and stealing her jade bracelet.

"Miss Shuangshuang, you have to make the decision for me. I really didn't steal her jade bracelet. She framed me." Caidi knew that the person who hated Qiao Jingjing the most in the Lu family was Lu Shuangshuang, so she immediately He asked Lu Shuangshuang for help again.

Lu Shuangshuang helped her up and turned to glare at Qiao Jingjing with disdain, "What a big arrogant person. Just because Cai Die calls your name, you hold a grudge and frame her? Why are you so vicious?"

Lu Xingyan also frowned and glanced at Qiao Jingjing with disapproval, obviously believing Cai Die's words.

Mother Lu looked at Qiao Jingjing calmly, wanting to see how she would handle this matter.

Faced with everyone's suspicious looks, Qiao Jingjing did not panic. She looked at Cai Die and said, "You said I framed you, so can you tell me what you did at the pawn shop?"

Seeing that Lu Shuangshuang had already sided with her, Cai Die became more confident again and said nonchalantly, "Can't I just take a stroll?"

"Of course." Qiao Jingjing nodded, suddenly stepped forward and squatted down beside her.

When Cai Die saw this, she thought she was going to kneel down and apologize to him, and she became more and more proud, "Even if you want to frame me, for the sake of the people in the same village, I won't argue with you, and you don't have to do it." Kneel down... ah!"

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly screamed and was thrown to the ground.

Before she could react, she felt a chill on her feet.

When she realized something, her expression changed drastically, and she quickly stood up and rushed towards Qiao Jingjing, regardless of the pain.

But Qiao Jingjing had anticipated it, took two steps back to avoid her movements, and then took out a few banknotes from a shoe.

"I wonder where you got these banknotes?"

Cai Die was completely panicked now, her eyes flickered, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.

Qiao Jingjing handed the banknote to Mother Lu.

Mother Lu took it and looked at it, and found that there were as many as five hundred taels of silver notes, and there was also a jade bracelet pawned in the banknotes.

At that moment, she slapped her palm hard on the table and said in a deep voice: "Nai Die, what else do you have to say?"

Cai Die trembled with her lips and said, "That, that's the money my father made from selling the pigs..."

Mother Lu laughed angrily, raised the pig in her hand and said, "Why is a pig so valuable that it can be sold for five hundred taels?"

"Caidie, you really have lost your conscience. The old lady treated you very well, and that's why you came to work in the Lu family. But you actually stole the lady's jade bracelet without saying anything, and you dared to quibble and throw dirty water on the lady. You are so ungrateful! "Aunt Rong cursed angrily.

"No need to say more, Xingyan, take her to the government!" Lu Muli said coldly.

Cai Die was so frightened that she walked to Mother Lu on her knees and said, "Old madam, please spare me this time. I will never dare to pawn the jade bracelet again. I haven't used the money to pawn the jade bracelet yet. I haven't used it yet." Just give it back to Madam..."

Mother Lu shook her head, "You pawned the jade bracelet for five hundred taels. Although the banknote is still there, these five hundred taels are simply not enough to redeem the jade bracelet.

How are you going to replenish us with the remaining money? "

When Cai Die heard this, she collapsed to the ground.

When she bought the bracelet, the shopkeeper made it clear to her that if she wanted to redeem the silver in the future, the price would be increased.

She didn't have much money on her, so how could she redeem the jade bracelet?

Thinking of something, she hurriedly said: "My mother still has two gold leaves in her hand. The old lady will spare me this time. I will go back and ask my mother to bring the gold leaves."

"You reminded me that the gold leaf was also snatched from Jingjing's hand and does not belong to you. Aunt Rong, go explain the situation to Cai Die Niang and get the gold leaf back." Mother Lu ordered. "Yes." Aunt Rong went immediately.

Things took a turn for the worse, making Lu Shuangshuang look extremely ugly.

She stared at Cai Die in disbelief, "Did you really steal Qiao Jingjing's jade bracelet? How dare you?"

"Miss Shuangshuang, I just lost my mind for a moment. I don't dare to do it anymore. Please help me beg for mercy." Cai Die hurriedly hugged her leg as if grasping a life-saving straw.

Now that the truth was revealed, when Lu Shuangshuang thought about how she had spoken for Cai Die just now, she felt as if she had been slapped hard on the face, and was particularly embarrassed.

Seeing that she still dared to beg him, he was so angry that he kicked her away.

Lu Shuangshuang said angrily: "You are such a scum, you have brought shame on all the people of Xingzi Village. I will ask my father to tell Li Zheng in a moment that your hands and feet are not clean and you are not worthy of staying in Xingzi Village!"

After saying that, she glanced at Qiao Jingjing, then bit her lip, turned around and ran out.

Lu Xingyan also felt a little ashamed. He almost believed Cai Die's words just now, thinking that his sister-in-law was greedy for vanity and narrow-minded, and deliberately framed Cai Die.

Thinking of this, he blushed and stammered: "Sister-in-law, I, I almost misunderstood you just now, I'm sorry..."

When Qiao Jingjing heard this, she glanced at him.

Lu Xingyan was one year younger than her, and his fair face was now covered with a blush of shame.

Unlike Lu Shuangshuang, he was full of hostility towards her. Although he almost believed Cai Die's words just now and disagreed with her, he dared to admit his mistakes and knew how to apologize.

Qiao Jingjing suddenly felt that this brother-in-law was not bad.

"It's okay, Xingyan. After all, you don't know. It's human nature to misunderstand."

Lu Xingyan breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his fists and bowed to her.

Cai Die, who was crying with snot and tears on her face, saw this and quickly kowtowed to Qiao Jingjing, "Qiao Jingjing, it was my lard that fooled your heart this time. Please forgive me. I really don't dare to do it anymore, Qian Jingjing." Please don’t send me to the government, please..."

Qiao Jingjing looked at Mother Lu asking for instructions.

Mother Lu nodded.

Qiao Jingjing then said: "We don't have to send you to the official, but the jade bracelet needs to be redeemed. Five hundred taels is not enough at all. Can you raise the remaining money?"

Cai Die's face turned pale, "I-I don't have that much money, but-but I still have some things at home that can be sold. When I raise the money, I will definitely make up the rest..."

"Ayan, take someone to send Cai Die back to her home first." Mother Lu said solemnly, "If you can't raise the remaining money, we will report it to the government at any time."

When Qiao Jingjing heard this, she knew that Mother Lu was determined to let Cai Die go, so she didn't say anything more.

"Thank you, madam." Cai Die was happy and kowtowed to Mother Lu.

Soon, Lu Xingyan took Cai Die back to her home.

After there was no one else in the room, Qiao Jingjing said, "Mom, you don't want to pursue Cai Die anymore?"

Mother Lu nodded, "We are from the same village after all. Although we are about to leave here and go to the capital, we have been in the same village for so many years and we still have to take care of some friendship, otherwise it will chill the villagers.

Even if Cai Die is at fault, if we push too hard, others will think that we are oppressing the villagers just because A Xing became an official. "
