When Jiang Yu heard Yun Mo say this, he was still immersed in the sadness and anger of losing his daughter and the fact that his eldest daughter was the murderer who poisoned his younger daughter. He had no time to consider the deeper meaning of this sentence.
Later, she was depressed and confused all day long, and had long forgotten Yun Mo's reminder.
Now, she seemed to understand something.
Just at this time, Mrs. Yuan came to the party in a wealthy manner.
While everyone was greeting each other and shaking hands, Jiang Yu carefully examined the emerald bracelet on Mrs. Yuan's hand.
The bracelet is the body of the Imperial Concubine Bracelet, which is a bracelet style invented by Yang Guifei in the Tang Dynasty. It is round on the outside and flat on the inside. It is difficult to make, but it is very comfortable to wear, not easy to break, and elegant.
The entire jade bracelet is emerald green, with a rich color, glossy and moist without a trace of impurities, and is exactly the same as hers.
Jiang Yu felt cold all over and tried hard to suppress his emotions as he asked Mrs. Yuan about the origin of the bracelet.
Mrs. Yuan raised her wrist generously to show everyone this top-quality emerald bracelet.
"I bought this from my adopted brother, who gave it away for free. I spent 30,000 yuan. But my husband said that there was an auction in Beijing last year, where a similar one was sold for 40,000 yuan. This one will cost at least 50,000 yuan."
Jiang Yu didn't know if she was too sensitive, but she always felt that the other person's smile at her was meaningful.
"This bracelet is really good. It's so thick, but it doesn't have any flaws. It's green and looks great on the hand."
"I was also at the provincial capital auction. The quality was much worse than this one, and it was a round bar. This one is a royal concubine bar. In my opinion, it would cost at least 60,000 or 70,000 yuan. Your brother sold it to you for 30,000 yuan, which was really generous."
Everyone was talking at once, praising her like money was free, making Mrs. Yuan as happy as a flower.
On the contrary, the more Jiang Yu looked at it, the more frightened he became, and he wanted to go home immediately to open the safe and check.
But she couldn't. The fact that her husband cheated on her and had a mistress was embarrassing enough for her, and she couldn't let outsiders laugh at her.
After sitting there uncomfortably for ten minutes, Jiang Yu finally excused himself and left, saying he was not feeling well.
Watching her hurriedly leaving, a wealthy lady covered her mouth and chuckled, "When Mrs. Yun saw the bracelet on Mrs. Yuan's hand, her eyes almost popped out. I guess the rumors may not be false."
"It is said that it is difficult to prevent thieves at home even if you guard against them day and night. If the Yun family does not learn from their lessons, who can they blame?"
"People who grew up in the countryside are not presentable. I heard that he stole the money that his adoptive parents had given to their grandson to prepare for his wedding. Not only did the wedding fail, but he also had a lot of debt. In order to pay off the debt, the old man went up the mountain to dig herbs and broke his leg. He almost lost his life."
"Tsk tsk tsk, this is not raising a daughter, it's clearly raising an ungrateful wolf."
"Compared to this, the adopted daughter of the Yun family is much better. Although her temper is a little lacking, if you think about it carefully, she is not that bad. It's nothing for young people to quarrel."
"Your almanac should be updated. The adopted daughter of the Yun family is different now. She has a close relationship with the Zeng family, the Wan family, and the Xie family. Her grades are not bad either. I can't say that she will definitely be admitted to Beijing University, but at least she will be admitted to the top ten universities in the country."
"Does the Yun family think that they are picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons?"
"Sesame is at least good, but this Yun family member is just a rotten grain with a bad core. Just wait and see, there will be more fun in the Yun family in the future."
Jiang Yu didn't know that she had become the focus of discussion at the party. Of course, even if she knew, she couldn't do anything about it.
In the upper class circles, it is common to put down those who are inferior and praise those who are superior, and she used to gossip about others as well.
All we can say is that fortune changes over time and cause and effect have their own cycle.
When Jiang Yu opened the box and saw what was inside, his expression changed instantly.
On the surface, the jade bracelet in the box was exactly the same as the one Mrs. Yuan was wearing, but Jiang Yu could tell at a glance that it was a fake.
The Jiang family was a famous local tycoon for dozens of generations, but later gradually declined. This emerald jade bracelet was one of the private collections of the old lady of the Jiang family.
Old Mrs. Jiang was about to die, so she secretly gathered several of Jiang's grandchildren together and distributed the pieces of evidence to each of them one by one.
Jiang Yu was given two pieces of jade ornaments, one is this bracelet, and the other is a palm-sized jade pendant, which comes as a set with the bracelet.
The other descendants of the Jiang family were frightened by the PD, so they took their belongings and left for other places, some even went abroad. Jiang Yu couldn't leave her family, husband and children, so she had to stay in Jiang City.
Later, by chance, Jiang Yu exchanged the jade pendant in his hand for a piece of land, and it was with this piece of land that Yun Shixian started to make his fortune.
After the Yun family became wealthy, Jiang Yu had always wanted to find a way to get the jade pendant back, pair it with the bracelet, and pass it down to his son as a family heirloom.
As a result, the jade pendant has not been found yet, but the bracelet was stolen.
Yun Yao was very tired from the whole night and slept very soundly. Even the sound of the door opening did not wake her up.
Jiang Yu was already furious, and when he saw his eldest daughter lying safely on the bed, his anger reached its peak.
“Crash!”
A bucket of cold water was poured down, and Yun Yao woke up from the biting cold. Looking at Jiang Yu lying angrily on the bed, she was unable to recover for a long time.
"mom……"
"Don't call me, I'm not your mother!"
"ah!"
Even though Yun Yao dodged quickly, she was still hit on the forehead by the wooden barrel in Jiang Yu's hand.
Yun Yao covered her forehead in pain, staring at Jiang Yu with undisguised resentment in her eyes.
Damn woman, she gets mad at every turn, she's had enough! At this time, Yun Yao didn't know that Jiang Yu already knew about the theft of the jade bracelet, and thought it was just like usual, just picking on Yun Huan because of the matter.
"Mom, what do you want from me? Or just kill me..."
Jiang Yu interrupted her coldly, "Hand over the bracelet!"
Yun Yao was stunned for a moment, then realized that the bracelet theft had been exposed.
"What bracelet, Mom? I don't understand what you are talking about."
Seeing her eldest daughter acting crazy and stupid, Jiang Yu wanted to pounce on her and strangle her to death, "Don't think that no one knows what you did. Believe it or not, I will call the police. Then even your father won't be able to protect you!"
Given Jiang Yu's current dislike for her, he might really call the police to arrest her. After quickly weighing the matter, Yun Yao had no choice but to tell the truth.
