Chapter 112: The Year

Ruan Mianmian said nothing but stretched out her hand towards Jiu'er, obviously asking her to return it quickly.

Jiuer shook his head: "You won't need it for at least another seven or eight years."

"Isn't it just a bellyband?" Ruan Mianmian couldn't help but roll her eyes, "I don't want to use it, that one belongs to my mother."

"The princess is still fooling around after knowing it, and the third lady is also serious. She even confiscated her personal clothes."

Seeing Jiu'er's resolute face, Ruan Mianmian could only tell the truth: "Sister Jiu'er, my mother is crying in front of it. Bring it over quickly and let me see what's special about it."

"Ah?" Jiu'er was stunned for a moment.

Seeing Ruan Mianmian's serious look, Jiu'er saw that the princess was not fooling around, so she quickly handed over the object in her hand.

Spreading the bellyband on the bed, Ruan Mianmian lowered his head and looked at it. Jiuer came over and sat on the edge of the bed, lowered his head and took a closer look. The two of them were squeezed together for a while and they couldn't figure out the reason.

"Princess, are you wrong? It's nothing special. The third lady's craftsmanship is very good." Jiu'er pointed to the embroidery on it.

Ruan Mianmian was puzzled: "I can't be wrong, my mother obviously shed tears in front of it. Is this a token of love between her and my scumbag father, so it looks sad?"

"It's possible." Jiu'er nodded heavily.

"That's not right." Ruan Mianmian looked at it twice before shaking his head, "Mother hates this object so much."

Jiu'er looked at Ruan Mianmian in surprise: "Princess Princess, how did you figure it out?"

"Look, it's so wrinkled. Most people definitely wouldn't be like this, especially someone as particular as my mother. It's even more impossible for her to make her personal items look like this, unless she is like this."

Ruan Mianmian picked up the bellyband and imitated the gesture of holding it tightly with both hands, and spread it out on the bed again. As expected, the creases were the same as before.

"Mother hates this object. She's not sad." Ruan Mianmian carefully recalled Zhou Yuning's expression when she broke in. "Angry, aggrieved, helpless, and still filled with hatred."

Jiuer became more and more confused as he listened: "The third lady hates her own underwear? How is that possible? Princess, what you said is too mysterious."

Suddenly, the door of the room was lightly clicked twice, and Ruan Mianmian quickly stuffed the underwear spread on the bed back into the bed.

"Third Madam, let your servant come in and serve you."

"It's Sister Shuang'er." Ruan Mianmian signaled, and Jiu'er quickly stepped forward to open the door.

Shuang'er was surprised to see Jiu'er: "Are you here? Where is the princess?"

"Sister Shuang'er, come in quickly, I'm just looking for you." Ruan Mianmian's voice came from inside.

After letting Shuang'er enter, Jiu'er closed the door again.

Ruan Mianmian waved to Shuang'er: "Sister Shuang'er, come here."

"Where is the third lady?" Shuang'er looked around.

"Mother has gone to Fu'an Hall." Ruan Mianmian grabbed Shuang'er's hands as she approached, "Is mother in a bad mood?"

Shuang'er turned her head with a guilty conscience: "Princess, I don't know."

"Look into my eyes and don't lie." Ruan Mianmian sat cross-legged on the bed. She straightened her back and pursed her lips tightly, looking extremely serious.

Jiu'er patted Shuang'er on the shoulder: "You still can't trust the princess? Look at Miss Lin, she can help with such a big matter. The third lady is the person whom the princess is closest to and cares about the most. Tell me,

If she really encounters any trouble, she will definitely have a way to solve it."

Ruan Mianmian nodded lightly. Jiu'er was becoming more and more reliable. She took action when it was time to take action and spoke when it was time to speak. She was very satisfied with what she said.

After hearing Jiu'er's words, Shuang'er looked a little relaxed, and she hesitated to speak.

"Is it because of this?" Ruan Mianmian put his hand into the quilt and took out the object.

Shuang'er was shocked, and when she met Ruan Mianmian's sharp eyes, she nodded involuntarily.

No longer hiding anything, Shuang'er told everything in detail.

When Ruan Mianmian was more than half a year old, Liluoju was broken into by a burglar. Instead of searching for property, the man took away Zhou Yunning's personal clothes.

Later, the thief showed up arrogantly and turned out to be Shi Sigou, the son of the backyard manager, Granny Shi.

Aunt Shi is said to be a distant relative of Chen Wanyu. When the eldest lady was in charge of the family, her son Shi Sigou had a job as a gardener. The mother and son were considered well-known among the servants of Ding'an Hou Mansion.

Shi Sigou blackmailed Zhou Yunning with her personal clothes and demanded money. She had no choice but to pawn her jewelry and other items.

Ruan Mianmian's long-standing doubts were cleared when she heard this. After all, her mother was also the third wife of the family. During the few years they lived in Liluo, the three of them had to rely solely on her needlework to survive. It turned out to be because

The money was extorted from others.

"Didn't my mother be able to cope with it that day?" Ruan Mianmian frowned.

Shuang'er said bitterly: "Shi Sigou said that if he didn't give it, he would go to the old lady and say that the third lady was unruly and seduced him. This thing is the evidence."

Ruan Mianmian nodded slowly. If this had happened at that time, my mother might not be able to explain it clearly.

"How much money did you give him before he stopped?" Ruan Mianmian asked sharply.

"I gave him two thousand silver at one time." Shuang'er was very angry, "The third lady pawned all her jewelry, and I took out everything I could. In the end, I owed twenty taels of silver, and even pawned my clothes.

"

Ruan Mianmian pointed to the bellyband on the bed: "Have you redeemed this?"

Shuang'er nodded and shook her head. Jiu'er looked anxious: "What do you mean? Is it true or not? Just talk."

"It looks like this, but I clearly remember that the third lady burned her on fire after she was redeemed."

Ruan Mianmian said calmly: "So this is definitely not the one back then."

"I just found the third lady wiping her tears, so I thought about asking the princess to comfort her, so I ran to Fu'an Hall, but Aunt Yun said you didn't go, so I hurried back again."

It turned out that Shuang'er was really looking for him, Ruan Mianmian nodded.

"Sister Jiu'er, check the Shisi Gou immediately." After Ruan Mianmian finished speaking, she added cautiously, "This matter is related to my mother's reputation. Don't let other people know."

"I will go and check it myself." Jiu'er understood that the princess meant to hide it from the rest of the Marquis's family, including the old Marquis and the old lady.

Shuang'er told what she knew: "Jiu'er, I heard that Granny Shi and Shi Sigou have been kicked out of the Hou Mansion since the old lady took over."

"It would be easier if he wasn't in the Marquis' Mansion." Ruan Jiu's eyes flashed coldly, "Princess, I think it would be better if he could never speak."

Jiu'er was so scary at this moment, Shuang'er was so frightened that she took a few steps away from her.

Ruan Mianmian smiled, Jiu'er looked like a different person, exuding murderous aura from all over his body, Ruan Jiu's true nature was exposed.

"Let's find out first before talking." Ruan Mianmian was very calm, "If he was just a Shi Si Gou in the past, let's not talk about it for now, he should not be so bold now."

"The princess thinks there is someone behind him?" Ruan Jiu's mind was spinning very fast.

Ruan Mianmian said calmly: "You will know after checking."
