Chapter 186 - 186 Investigating the Truth (3)186 Investigating the Truth (3)
Su Yuniang planned to establish her own family. In order to prevent the Su family from causing trouble, she wanted to have something on the Su family.
Initially, she was just going to try her luck. Who would have thought that she would really gain something?
Su Yuniang suddenly sneered. “Do you know how much money my great-grandfather sold that jade pendant for?”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “How much?”
Su Yuniang extended a finger.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “10 taels?”
Su Yuniang glared at her. “Are ancestral jade pendants only sold for 10 taels each?”

These words made Su Yuniang fall silent. That’s right, they could sell it for so much during the desolate years. If not for the desolate years…
Heavens, just how valuable was that jade pendant?
She sighed. “That’s true, but there’s never a shortage of good things.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “100 taels?”
Su Yuniang said, “1,000 taels.”
That was 1,000 taels of silver from 30 years ago. How much wealth was that? It was enough for a family to eat for several lifetimes!
The Su family had spent less than a hundred taels to help the villagers.
What was this bullsh*t about eating chaff and swallowing vegetables?
There were 900 taels of snowflake silver stored at home. They could afford to eat bird’s nest every day!
At the thought of this, Su Yuniang felt disgusted. “I’ve investigated the price and quantity of food back then. I’ve also bought the account book.”
If the Su family did not put on a show, everyone might not have had anything to say. After all, they sold their own property. They could spend it however they wanted. It was their prerogative to take out as much as they wanted to help their fellow villagers. No matter how much it was, it was a great act.
“The Su family doesn’t do anything decent. There’s going to be a good show, but…” Su Xiaoxiao paused and asked, “You just said that it’s related to our Su family. What do you mean?”
Su Yuniang chuckled. She was not laughing at Su Xiaoxiao, but at the shameless Su family.
She took out a jade pendant and threw it on the table. “Here.”
The moment Su Xiaoxiao saw the jade pendant, she subconsciously touched her neck. The jade pendant was still there.
Then, she picked it up and took a look. No, it wasn’t her half of the jade pendant.
Su Xiaoxiao took out her jade pendant and put the two pieces together. The pattern was complete.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“A pair? That’s not right. This texture…” Su Xiaoxiao touched the jade pendant that Su Yuniang brought back. “It’s imitation, right?”
This girl’s eyesight was not bad. Su Yuniang had examined it for more than two hours.
Su Yuniang asked, “Does it look like it?”
Su Xiaoxiao touched the patterns on the jade pendant and said, “It looks like it. It’s indeed real jade, but the texture is too tender. It’s stained, right?”
Su Yuniang was surprised. “You know this?”
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “A little.”
In her previous life, she had learned a little from Madam Li but was not very proficient.
Su Yuniang said, “If I hadn’t seen your jade pendant, I would most likely have been fooled and bought it as a real and valuable item. This is the imitation of the jade pendant that the Su family pawned back then. The original authentic piece is a pair with your jade pendant.”
“Didn’t you say that your family’s jade pendant was picked up by your father when he was young? My grandfather had seen your family’s jade pendant before. If the jade pendant originally belonged to the Su family, my grandfather would definitely not allow me to ask San Lang to return the jade pendant to you.”
“Besides, all these years, I’ve never heard my family mention that the jade pendant that was sold back was one of a pair. They also never mentioned a lost piece.”
Su Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully, “Looks like the jade pendant that the Su family sold back then wasn’t a family heirloom at all. It was also an item of unknown origin.”
He picked up someone else’s item and sold it. He even bragged about it as his family’s ancestral jade pendant. How shameless.
Su Yuniang recalled, “My grandfather’s reaction to your family was very strange. I suspect that he knew something.”
