Su Yuan left in a carriage, and Su Xiaoxiao went to the small woods behind the kitchen to sharpen her knife.

The setting sun shone through the bamboo leaves, slanting down onto her head.

When Su Yu Niang came over holding her one-month-old daughter, she saw the little figure sharpening the knife.

This girl has really lost a lot of weight.

Su Yu Niang sighed and moved a small stool to sit next to Su Xiaoxiao.

"Are you one of those blind cats that stumble upon dead mice?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "What?"

Su Yu Niang: "This is the medicine for that old man. How can you be so brave? Aren't you afraid that the medicine will cause harm to the old man——"

Su Xiaoxiao continued to sharpen the knife: "It's okay!"

The little one in her arms hummed, and Su Yu Niang picked her up, patted her back gently, and helped her to burp out the milk.

Su Yu Niang said: "I will go to the government office tomorrow and move my household registration out."

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "How much money did you give to the old Su family?"

If she doesn't give him some benefits, the Su family will never let Su Yu Niang go.

Su Yu Niang kissed her daughter's forehead: "Two hundred taels."

Boom! Su Xiaoxiao chopped it onto the chopping board!

Su Yu Niang said calmly: "Don't worry, I will make them spit it out."

…

In the alley between Liu Shan's home and Xiao Su's home, Su Jinniang's face turned pale and she clenched her fingers little by little.

It was not until Su Xiaoxiao and Su Yu Niang entered the kitchen and closed the back door that she quickly ran back to her home.

"grandfather!"

Old Master Su was reconciling accounts with Su Can in the main room. Su Can was always right or wrong and was not as good as Su Erlang.

Old Master Su glanced at Su Jinniang, who looked flustered, and asked, "Where have you been this time? Who told you to go out all day? You're about to get married, so go out less in the future!"

Su Jinniang lowered her eyes: "I... just went to see my sister, and heard her and Su Pangya say... that they wanted to get our money back."

Su Can stood up quickly: "What?"

Su Jinniang whispered, "Sister said that our family is unkind, so don't blame her for being unjust. When she goes to the county government to transfer her household registration tomorrow, she will tell everyone about the jade pendant and let the villagers know... Back then... what you and great grandfather sold... was the jade pendant that was snatched from the little Su family. There is also the jade pendant on Su Pangya as evidence. It was originally a pair."

Su Can said angrily: "When did we steal their jade pendant? It's our Su family's ancestral heirloom! Shameless little bitch! Let me show you how I'm going to deal with her!"

He rolled up his sleeves, turned around and walked out, but was surprised to find that no one followed him.

The entire hall was silent. Apart from him, Mr. Su, Su Erlang and Su Jinniang remained silent.

Old Master Su knew the truth of the matter, while Su Erlang and Su Jinniang guessed the truth of that year.

When Su Jinniang saw Mr. Su's reaction, she knew that her guess was correct.

How could this happen? She was obviously better than Su Pangya in everything, but since when did Su Pangya keep riding on her head, and now even the jade pendant has become hers!

This is not fair!

"Dad?" Su Can stared at Old Man Su in a daze, "Should, shouldn't..."

"What happened?"

Su Dalang came back from outside carrying water. Seeing that the atmosphere at home was not right, he quickly put down the bucket.

Mr. Su said, "Jinniang, go back to your room first."

When the men of the Su family discuss matters, they never allow women to be present.

"Yes, Grandpa." Su Jinniang went back to her room dejectedly.

She went in, but put her ear against the door to eavesdrop.

Su Can swallowed and asked Old Master Su: "Dad, what Jinniang said is——"

Su Erlang frowned and said, "Dad, now is not the time to worry about this. The most urgent thing is to prevent them from going to the village to bite us! Grandpa, we can't just sit there and wait for death!"

Su Can shut up.

He was in a state of shock. Who could have expected that the jade pendant in their house belonged to Su Cheng? Doesn't that mean that the favors owed by the villagers also belonged to Su Cheng? Old Master Su looked at Su Erlang and asked, "What can you do?"

Su Erlang clenched his fist: "It's better to strike first!"

Su Can disagreed: "This method... has been used once..."

And failed.

Su Erlang said: "The reason why we failed last time was that we didn't know that the bundle had been discovered by Su Daya, and Yu Niang also showed up. This time, the jade pendant is in Su Daya's hands, let's see how they can clear their suspicion!"

Su Can was timid: "How about we wait a little longer?"

Su Erlang said seriously, "Dad, what are you waiting for? Wait until my eldest sister moves her household registration so that she no longer has any concerns about our Su family? Now that her household registration is still in our hands, she is a little bit afraid and doesn't dare to make too much trouble with us. Now is the most appropriate time. If we wait until tomorrow, it will be too late!"

Although this is not the best way, it is the only thing they can do now. Otherwise, with Su Yu Niang's temper, she might really expose the scandal of the old Su family! Old Master Su closed his eyes and said, "Just listen to Erlang."

A quarter of an hour later, Su Can brought his two sons to Xiao Su's house.

This time they learned their lesson and did not incite the villagers to come and watch the fun.

"Su Yu Niang, come out!"

Su Can jumped into the main room and said angrily.

Su Yu Niang had just coaxed her daughter to sleep when she heard Su Can's voice and walked out with a cold face.

Su Can shouted angrily: "How dare you say that! Hand over the jade pendant!"

Su Yu Niang frowned: "What jade pendant?"

Su Can said, "Our family's ancestral jade pendant! You just went home and entered your grandfather's room! After you left, the jade pendant in your grandfather's cabinet disappeared! Tell me! Did you take it?"

Su Yu Niang chuckled and said, "Didn't the Su family's ancestral jade pendant be sold a long time ago?"

She was talking about the Su family, not our family.

Unfortunately, Su Can was so focused on acting that he didn't notice the details of her address.

Su Can put his hands on his hips and said, "Humph! That's a pair! Sell one and there's still one left!"

Su Yu Niang said coldly: "You are really good at putting the blame on someone else! The jade pendant obviously belongs to the Su family! You stole their jade pendant! You are taking advantage of their blood and in the end, you want to bite them back!"

Su Can said, "We didn't say it was the Su family who did it! Could it be that... you mean... you were instructed by the Su family? Yu Niang, I understand that you want to start your own business. Your grandfather and I have discussed it carefully and we allow you to move your household registration, but you must not be ungrateful."

This is a blatant threat to Su Yu Niang.

Su Xiaoxiao walked over nonchalantly and glanced at Su Can and the others irritably: "Again? Do you really want to be beaten?"

In the past, Su Can would have been afraid.

But the matter of the jade pendant was a serious matter, and he would rather be beaten than back down!

Su Can said sternly: "Yu Niang, hand over the jade pendant! I will pretend that this matter never happened. I will go to the county government tomorrow to transfer your household registration!"

Give a slap and a sweet date.

Su Can doesn't have that kind of brains.

Su Xiaoxiao turned her gaze to Su Erlang standing aside.

In the entire Su family, apart from Grandpa Su and Su Yu Niang, only Su Erlang has some brains.

It’s a pity that it’s not used in the right way.

On the other side, Mr. Su went to see the village head.

The head of the village politely invited him into the main hall: "Brother Su, please sit down." He also asked his wife to pour a cup of hot tea for Mr. Su.

Old Master Su only needed to smell it to know that the tea brewed by the head of the village was not cheap.

"Good tea." said Mr. Su.

The village head smiled and said, "Ah, it was given to Daya by her father."

Nun Huijue sent several jars, and Su Cheng couldn't finish them, so he shared some with Old Li and the head of the village.

Mr. Su stopped talking.

The head of the village remembered the tense relationship between the younger Su family and the older Su family, and thought to himself that he shouldn't have mentioned Su Cheng in front of Old Master Su.

He coughed lightly and said, "Are you here to see me because of Yu Niang's matter?"

He heard that Yu Niang was going out to start her own business. Only with the consent of her family could Su Yu Niang move her household registration out. As for settling down in the village again, she would need the fingerprint of the village head.

He has no objection to this.

Mr. Su hesitated to speak, looking very embarrassed.

The village head said, "Brother Su, if you have something to say, just speak up."

Mr. Su said, "I am indeed here for Yu Niang's matter, but not for her household registration. I hope you can keep it a secret for Yu Niang."

The village head wondered, "What happened to Yu Niang?"

Mr. Su sighed and said, "She stole the jade pendant from our home."

The village chief was surprised: "What?"

Old Master Su said, "When our Su family sold the ancestral jade pendants, everyone only knew one thing, but not the other. In fact, it was a pair of pendants, with a total of two pieces. We sold one of them, and the other one was passed down to me by my father. I plan to pass it on to Su Can before I die--"

"Ah..." The village head was indeed surprised.

Old Master Su looked at him and said, "Don't show off your wealth. The head of the village should understand, right?"

The head of the village nodded blankly: "Yes, yes."

Mr. Su continued, "After selling the jade pendant, our family was robbed several times."

The village head sighed and said, "I know this."

Old Master Su said, "So, regarding the other jade pendant, my father ordered me not to tell anyone about it, to avoid any misfortune."

"That's natural," the village head expressed his understanding.

An innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure. It was a famine year and bandits were rampant. If they had known that the Su family had a valuable jade pendant, they would have stolen it openly and secretly.

Mr. Su changed the subject and said, "Mrs. Yu came home today and took the jade pendant away."

"Yu Niang?" The head of the village was shocked again.

Old Master Su shook his head and sighed, "I don't know why she did this. She obviously doesn't need money. Maybe she hates me for almost sending her to a nunnery. So she thought of this way to get revenge on me."

The head of the village opened his mouth and said, "Ah, this..."

Old Master Su said earnestly, "No matter what, Yu Niang is my granddaughter. Sending her to the nunnery is a helpless move. Even if she hates me or refuses to recognize me as her grandfather, I won't blame her. But the jade pendant is passed down from my ancestors after all. I hope she can return it."

The head of the village looked at him and said, "Brother Su, you tell me this—"

Old Master Su said helplessly: "She won't listen to me now. I beg you to help me persuade her. Also, don't let the villagers know. I'm afraid she won't be able to hold her head up in front of the villagers in the future."
