Chapter 23 Is the jade pendant really gone?



Her regret was palpable, which brought the old lady immense satisfaction.

In the future, will you still dare to act on your own? Will you not listen to your good grandson?

Old Madam Meng could hardly hide her smugness. She sighed and feigned agreement: "If you really want to go back, it's not impossible."

"I just have a question for you."

Wei Wei lowered her head and said, "Please speak."

"Are you aware that things haven't been peaceful in the manor these past few days?" Old Madam Meng stared intently at her, not missing a single expression.

Wei Wei hummed in agreement: "The servants in the house are dishonest, and several have already been dealt with."

Madam Meng said, "It's a pity you only know one side of the story and not the other."

She moved the corner of her mouth slightly: "But... when I found the jade pendant, it was only half left."

She looked at Madam Meng and said, "I remember that after you sent someone to persuade Second Aunt to leave, Lin Mama also came over."

"Why don't you go and ask your mother?"

"Or perhaps Granny Chun still remembers it."
