The rebirth of the first daughter is not easy to mess with

Chapter 41 The Truth Comes Out (1)
"Presumptuous, you are the dignified aunts and misses of the government. Why are all of you so shallow, and you are just some ordinary objects. How can you be so rude?"

As soon as Ning's words fell, the noisy voices stopped abruptly, but everyone's eyes still fell on the pile of beautiful treasures, and their teeth itched with hatred for this tortoise shell. They, aunts and young ladies, had never seen it before. My baby, this third-class girl, actually hid a box full of it. Everyone felt that their self-esteem had been severely hit by this, and they looked at the tortoise shell with unkind eyes.

"Bold tortoiseshell, now that the evidence is overwhelming, how do you explain it?"

Before Shangguan Ning could ask, Ning spoke first. By now, the truth was basically revealed. His previous aggressive attitude might make Jiang and Shangguan feel jealous. It can be regarded as an explanation to the mother and daughter.

"My servant is guilty. This show box was stolen by my servant. I didn't know how to check my morals. Please punish me, old madam, madam, and young lady."

The tortoise's attitude caught Shangguan Ning a little off guard. She thought that the tortoise would resist for a while, but she didn't expect to admit it so readily, but it's rare to come up with such a reason in a panic. The handling of crimes is very different.

"Steal? The items in this box are worth more than a hundred taels, and all kinds of things add up to at least a thousand taels. I'm afraid that no one in the court of my Shangguan can have such a show box?"

Although Ning Shi didn't want to see Jiang Shi, she had to seriously interrogate her at such a time, and she had to act fair, not to mention that what she said was true, the only one in the whole family who could have such an exquisite show box was herself The Jiang family and Shangguan Ning, but the objects inside are very ordinary and gaudy even though they are expensive, it cannot be from the Shangguan Mansion, the Shangguan Mansion is a family of officials and officials, and the custom-made jewelry is all made in a unified style by the Dayong Gold and Silver Workshop Yes, so Ning recognized at a glance that it was not an item in Shangguan's mansion. Could it be that someone outside the mansion wanted to attack Jiang?

"Go back to the old lady, the show box was stolen by a servant in a carriage outside the mansion."

"Oh? You are very lucky. May I ask who would carry such a valuable item with him when he travels? Even if he did, why would he leave casually and wait for a girl like you to steal it?"

"I don't know why. That day, I went with Nanny Zhang to buy needlework and embroidery frames outside the mansion. Nanny Zhang went into the shop to place an order with the boss. I was waiting at the door. I happened to see a very luxurious carriage parked there. In front of the door of Cuiyuxuan next door, the people inside and the entourage driving the carriage outside have all entered the Cuiyuxuan. The servant girl saw the exquisite carriage and walked over to take a closer look. Later, the wind blew the curtain of the carriage, and the servant girl saw the show box Putting it on the seat of the carriage, the servant got greedy for a moment and then stole the show box and took it as her own, please be careful, old lady!"

Hawksbill's rhetoric can be said to be very fluent, the time and place are very clear, the witness is Nanny Zhang, and a carriage that cannot be found, as long as the owner does not take the initiative to claim it, this is a headless case, and no one can Correct me, this show box was not stolen by the tortoise shell.

"Grandma, I see there is a small paper bag inside, what is it?"

It was only then that everyone noticed the small paper bag in the middle of the jewelry. The paper was very ordinary yellow straw paper with some fine white powder faintly on it.

"Qingping, open the paper bag."

Qingping carefully opened the paper bag, for fear that the powder inside would fly away, who knows if the white powder is poison?
