Chapter 400 The Mysterious Owner of the Ruby
If he was just an ordinary maid, he might have believed the two court runners' words. If a maid failed to get any information from the Yamen but accidentally got information from somewhere else, she would definitely take the news for real and tell her Master in a hurry.
But he was not an ordinary maid!
"Tell me about it!" Qu Moying smiled. She had been expecting a loophole in this matter. If there was no loophole, she would have to go to court.
The second branch of the Ji Family was behind this matter. It seemed that they didn't want to go to court either.
If they went to court, more people would know about this matter, making it more likely to be a suspicious case. It would be good for both parties if this thing could be settled in private before going to court.
As for the other party's tough attitude, it was just for show.
Qu Moying could now basically confirm her guess. She was uncertain before,

"Lady, as you instructed me, I said that it was my own idea and that I have to ask you for the specific time." Yu Dong reported. He rolled his eyes and continued, "Judging from the lad servant's reaction, I think he didn't know that you have become the owner of Yue's Gold Pavilion. However, he seemed to want to keep you waiting for a while."Yu Dong was shrewd. He could tell at a glance that the lad servant specially came for him and that he intentionally stalled for time. If the owner of Yue's Gold Pavilion was still Madam Duan, she might really sell the shop because the case couldn't be solved in private in time, and she was suppressed by Old Lady Ji and the second branch.At most, the other party would compensate her a little, and this case would be considered to be over.Qu Moying nodded. "When will you reply to him?""I said that I would go there two days later. That lad servant asked me to see him directly." Yu Dong sa

On the way back, Yu Dong met Second Young Master Qu, Qu Mingcheng!Yu Dong's head began to sweat as he walked. Seeing Qu Mingcheng coming over with a lad servant, he hurriedly bowed. "Greetings, Second Young Master!"Qu Mingcheng had almost recovered from his injury. Seeing that Yu Dong bowed to him, he stopped and looked at Yu Dong's sweaty face. He asked kindly, "Yu Dong, right? Where did you come back from? Why were you in such a hurry? Did something happen?"Yu Dong answered respectfully, "Yes, I'm Yu Dong. Just now, Fourth Lady ordered me to return the book to Earl Ling'an's Mansion!"He lowered his head and kept looking at the ground. He was very well-behaved."That Buddhist scripture?" Qu Mingcheng asked. Obviously, he had already known about the dispute between his younger sister and Qu Moying.Yu Dong answered, "Yes, Earl Ling'an's Mansion's Madam Duan said that she lent us the wrong one, s

Yu Dong couldn't help but secretly sigh in her heart, "This maid is really unusual!"After listening to Qing Mei's words, even he was a bit bewildered for a moment because Qing Mei somewhat got a point.Yu Dong lowered his head and muttered, "Well, regarding Third Lady and Second Young Master, Fourth Lady is..."Qing Mei was overjoyed to hear Yu Dong's words. The smile on her face became brighter and warmer. She pulled Yu Dong to sit on a big stone behind the tree and talked to Yu Dong with a sincere look on her face, "Sister Yu Dong, it's inappropriate for me to comment on Fourth Lady and Third Lady... They are sisters. They are not on good terms because they have different characters. Our Lady is going to enter Lord Jing Mansion in the future, and Fourth Lady may have to rely on our Lady in the future. They don't have to be like this."Yu Dong asked in surprise, "Is it true that Third Lady will enter Lord Jing Mansion?"

The one who pulled Qing Mei away was a lad servant of Qu Mingcheng!After pulling Qing Mei to the back of the artificial hill, the lad servant asked in a low voice, "How is it? I saw that you had handed the thing over to that maid just now, right?"In fact, the lad servant had been following Qing Mei, and he had been staring at Qing Mei and Yu Dong from afar, but he couldn't see them clearly because he was a bit far away from them.Qing Mei said proudly, "Don't worry, I've already handed it over.""Second Young Master gave this to you!" The lad servant took out a pouch from his pocket. The pouch was bulging, which showed that there were quite a few things in it.Qing Mei took it and pinched it. She smiled and said, "Thank Second Young Master for me! Many thanks!"The lad servant said, "You can go back now. I will report this to Second Young Master. If others see you in the outer yard now, there will

They checked the wing rooms one by one, but they didn't find anything. Finally, they stopped at a wing room, and Yu Dong looked hesitant.Qu Mingcheng asked gently as usual, "What's wrong?""This is my... room!" Yu Dong said timidly, lowering his head.Qu Mingcheng asked, "Who do you live with?""I live here alone." Yu Dong shook his head. According to Qu Mansion's rules, two senior maids shared one room. But Yu Dong lived in a single room because he was actually a man. Therefore, Yu Chun also lived alone.Qu Mingcheng stopped and asked with a gentler voice, "You live alone?""Yes... I live alone. There are many rooms in Qianyue House, so Lady let me and Yu Chun live alone." Yu Dong pinched the handkerchief in his hand with an uneasy and flustered look."Go in and take a look!" Qu Mingcheng waved his hand, and two old maids went into the room to check.Yu Dong carefully followed t

"Fourth sister, may I take a look at the drawer beneath the table?" Qu Mingcheng asked politely, turning to Qu Moying."Since you've come this far, just take a look!" Qu Moying remained unfazed and casual in her response.Qu Mingcheng nodded at the Granny.The Granny deftly opened the first drawer, inspected it briefly, and found nothing out of the ordinary. Then she proceeded to open another drawer, followed by shaking her head."Miss, there are some of your belongings in here… Some items you've collected that are not convenient for others to see." When reaching the last drawer, Yu Dong suddenly took a decisive step forward, blocking the Granny, her face filled with nervousness as she spoke hesitantly.Her actions only served to further convince Qu Mingcheng that this particular drawer was where the jade pendant was stored."What kind of things does your lady find inconvenient for others to see?" Q
Reborn to Be A Noble Wife Chapter 407 The Scene Where the Thief Cries out to Catch the Thief
"What did you discover, Second Brother? Why do you think it's impossible? Have you concluded that the jade pendant is in my possession, or is there another reason?" Qu Moying spoke coldly. "Please explain clearly, what is the truth behind this? Why are you so certain that I took the jade pendant?"Qu Mingcheng panicked; after all, he was still young and hadn't experienced a situation like this before.Especially the gazes of the people present, including his own father and grandmother, carried a hint of anger.Feeling flustered, he suddenly felt the weight of the jade pendant in his hand increase tenfold."Fourth Sister, perhaps I made a mistake," Qu Mingcheng said, putting down the jade pendant and stammering."Second Brother, if you made a mistake, then you falsely accused me of stealing Third Sister's valuable jade pendant. I wonder if you have also made a mistake regarding this matter. Perhaps Third Sister's

"Second brother, is it all in my imagination?" Qu Moying sneered coldly. "There are so many impossibilities, yet you insist that it's me. If you had any doubts, it wouldn't have escalated to this extent. And now you're telling me that I'm the one overthinking?"Qu Mingcheng's expression turned extremely unpleasant. "Fourth sister, do you really think I did it on purpose?"Since he wasn't going to deny it, Qu Mingcheng figured it was better to speak frankly. He increasingly resented Qing Mei for her incompetence in handling matters."How could you not know whether it was intentional or not? Some people, some things, leave traces when they are done. As the saying goes, What man does, the heavens are watching. It's not that there's no retribution, it's just that the time hasn't come."Qu Moying mocked.Qu Mingcheng relied solely on being Qu Zhizhen's only son.Back then, when he was just born, he becam
