You can get whatever you want, but you have nothing, so you feel evil, right?

She originally planned to push Dongfang Qingmo, then leave a letter in blood to put all the problems on Luo Yousu, take Luo Youzhu's money, and find an opportunity to die accidentally. In this way, she could complete the task and get the money without being discovered. It was perfect.

There was no one there at the time. If she ran away, Dongfang Qingmo would not know Qiu Shui and would surely die.

But who knew that Dongfang Qiong would come so quickly and disrupt her plans in an instant.

"Then why did Luo Youzhu frame Luo Yousu?" Dongfang Qingmo asked Xiaoru.

As for the reason, Dongfang Qingmo didn't want to care about it. Given Xiaoru's personality, it was probably just a little jealousy.

According to the original owner's memory, it was rumored that Luo Yousu liked her, his half-sister, very much and they had a very good relationship, which made Dongfang Qingmo a little confused.

"...I don't know..." Xiaoru shook her head. In fact, the reason she agreed to this was entirely because her family had been urging her to send money back, and the money Luo Youzhu gave was enough to solve her current predicament.

At this moment, Dongfang Qingshui suddenly kicked open the prison door and rushed in, pointing angrily at Xiaoru's nose: "Well, my Dongfang Mansion treats you well, but you are betraying me!"

Dongfang Qiong and others followed closely behind.

"Xiao Ru, you know very well how Mo'er treats you every day. You, you!" Yu Jing walked up to her and slapped her in the face.

Because of this man, she almost lost her daughter.

How can I not be angry?

Dongfang Qiong held Yu Jing's hand and said, "Madam, please don't hurt yourself for her."

"Mom, don't get angry and make yourself sick. I'm fine, aren't I?" Dongfang Qingmo came to Yu Jing.

Dongfang Ti patted Dongfang Qiong on the shoulder and said, "Brother, now that the truth is out, let Qingshui and I handle the rest. It's not good to stay in the dungeon all the time. Hurry and take sister-in-law and Mo'er out."

"Okay." Dongfang Qiong nodded and left with his wife and daughter.

Dongfang Qingshui watched them leave, then turned to look at Xiaoru on the shelf, a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes, "Tell me what happened."

Xiao Ru's lips trembled. "Master, I...I was wrong. I was just confused for a moment and was taken advantage of. Please, Master, spare my life!"

Dongfang Ti sneered, "Being used? Humph, I'm afraid it's not that simple. Tell me, what evidence do you have?"

Xiaoru lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.

"You don't want to tell me? Then don't blame me for being rude." Dongfang Ti said coldly.

Xiao Ru turned pale with fear and finally couldn't help crying, "Master, I'll tell you, I'll tell you, yes, yes, I have evidence, I can prove that everything was instigated by Luo Youzhu."

Then Xiaoru gave an address.

Dongfang Ti pondered for a moment and asked Dongfang Qingshui to get the evidence.

Dongfang Qingshui nodded and left in a hurry.

On the other side, Dongfang Qiong took Yu Jing and Dongfang Qingmo out of the dungeon and sent Dongfang Qingmo back to her courtyard.

Yu Jing looked at Dongfang Qingmo distressedly, "Mo'er, you really scared your mother and father to death this time. You must be careful in the future and be on guard against others. Bring a few more maids with you when you go out."

Dongfang Qingmo smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, mother, I will protect myself."

Dongfang Qiong sat aside, looking at the mother and daughter quietly, his heart filled with guilt.

He felt that he had failed in his responsibility to protect his family and that his daughter had been harmed.

"Dad, don't blame yourself. I know you have always loved me." Dongfang Qingmo noticed his father's mood and said softly.

Dongfang Qiong sighed deeply, then said gently to Dongfang Qingmo, "Mo'er, don't worry. Dad will go to the matchmaker and select a few maids who know martial arts to protect you."

He thought to himself that if these maids were disobedient and had the same temper as Xiaoru, then he could just poison them and give them the antidote every once in a while.

In this way, their loyalty can be guaranteed and their daughters can be better protected.

"Thank you, Dad!" Dongfang Qingmo looked at his father gratefully, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

Now that she has passed her coming-of-age ceremony, she may go out more often in the future. Bringing a few more maids will indeed increase her sense of security.

At this moment, Dongfang Ti and Dongfang Qingshui rushed over and handed the evidence provided by Xiaoru to Dongfang Qiong and his wife.

After receiving the evidence, Yu Jing angrily slammed the table and stood up: "Damn it! This vicious woman is simply unforgivable!"

She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and wished she could bring Luo Youzhu to justice immediately.

Dongfang Qiong also clenched his fists tightly, his eyes revealing deep anger: "This Luo Youzhu is really too much. He actually dared to stir up trouble at Mo'er's coming-of-age ceremony. I will go to Luo Ji to settle the score and see how he explains this matter!" He decided not to tolerate it anymore and to seek justice for his daughter.

Dongfang Ti nodded in agreement. "Big Brother is right. This time we have solid evidence. We can completely silence Luo Youzhu."

As long as the evidence is placed in front of Luo Ji, the other party will find it difficult to argue.

"Well, well done, second brother." Dongfang Qiong patted Dongfang Ti's shoulder in appreciation. "It's thanks to you that we were able to find such important evidence this time."

"It's all thanks to Mo'er." Dongfang Ti waved his hand.

Dongfang Qiong looked at Dongfang Qingmo proudly. He always thought she was a spoiled girl, but he didn't expect her to handle things so decisively for the first time. He really underestimated her.

"Haha, like father, like daughter."

Dongfang Qingshui pouted. He had never heard this sentence from his father.

Yu Jing nudged Dongfang Qiong and said, "Alright, go now. I'll be worried until this is resolved."

"Okay, second brother, come with me!"

Dongfang Qingshui said, "Dad, what about me? I'm going too?"

"You should stay at home. You must be tired from traveling all the way. Have a good rest." After saying that, Dongfang Qiong glanced at Dongfang Ti.

Dongfang Ti nodded, and they left one after another.

"Mo'er?"

Dongfang Qingshui came close to Dongfang Qingmo.

Dongfang Qingmo pretended not to hear and took Yu Jing's hand and said coquettishly: "Mom, I want to eat hairy crabs tonight~~"

"Okay, Mom will arrange for someone to salvage it from our lake." Yu Jing smiled and pinched her nose, agreeing lovingly.

Dongfang Qingshui felt a little aggrieved, but he also knew that his mother did not interfere and just wanted them to solve the problem themselves.

So he patted his chest vigorously and volunteered, "I'll go, I'll go get it."

Dongfang Qingmo secretly rolled his eyes and shook his head sarcastically: "You are so slow, it will definitely not work."

Yu Jing couldn't help laughing as she watched the two children bickering like toddlers.

"You guys just have a good chat, I'll go get it!" After saying that, she walked out of the yard.

Dongfang Qingshui touched his nose somewhat awkwardly.

Dongfang Qingmo smiled secretly in his heart, thinking that he had to play this drama to the fullest. After all, according to the original owner's personality, he couldn't forgive him easily now.

So she pretended to be angry and turned around to go back to the house.

Dongfang Qingshui quickly stopped her and shouted anxiously, "Mo'er..."

"My dear sister, it was my fault. I did try my best, traveling day and night..."

But, I still didn’t catch up.

"Is my coming-of-age ceremony a trivial matter? Why don't you leave early?" Dongfang Qingmo glared at him, his eyes full of grievance and anger.

She brought out all her acting skills in her life.

Almost tears in my eyes.

"This one……"

Dongfang Qingshui didn't know how to answer.

Can he say that he slept because he was so confident that he could catch up? Who knew that the pony would go on strike and refuse to move forward...

"You can't say it, right? You feel guilty, right?! I just know that I'm still not important enough in your heart!" Dongfang Qingmo looked at him, silently brewing tears.

"No, Mo'er, tell me, tell me, what should I do to make you forgive me?!" Dongfang Qingshui raised his hands to surrender.

"Are you really willing to do anything?" Dongfang Qingmo asked.

He is bound to be cheated out of a huge sum of money.

"Yes, yes!" Dongfang Qingshui nodded without thinking.

Dongfang Qingmo's eyes flashed, "Brother, did you bring me a gift for my coming-of-age ceremony?"

"Of course!" Dongfang Qingshui said with his chest puffed out.

When he mentioned the gift, he perked up and a proud smile appeared on his face.

He put a lot of thought into this gift and started preparing it half a year ago.

In order to find this special gift, he sent people to search everywhere, and after many hardships, he finally found a rare dragon stone jadeite.

This kind of jade only grows in specific caves, is rare and extremely precious.

This piece of dragon stone jade has excellent texture and unique characteristics of being warm in winter and cool in summer. It is moist and full, as if water drops will drip from it at any time.

It has excellent gloss, like the bright stars in the night sky, emitting charming light.

Longshi jade is known as the top variety of jade. It is of superior quality, without any flaws or impurities. Its surface is as smooth and delicate as silk, and it feels warm to the touch, making it hard to put down.

In order to carve this piece of jade into a perfect piece of jewelry, Dongfang Qingshui specially hired skilled craftsmen.

However, due to the preciousness of the jade itself and the complexity of the craftsmanship, one of the craftsmen made a mistake, causing the jade to be damaged.

This made Dongfang Qingshui very sad, but he did not give up. Instead, he looked for another more experienced craftsman to complete the task.

To this end, he shamelessly asked Dongfang Qiong to approve many models.

"Brother, then you go get it?" Dongfang Qingmo blinked, his eyes flashing with anticipation, his hands supporting his chin, his cute face with a hint of playfulness.

"Okay." Dongfang Qingshui raised the corner of his mouth slightly, touched his sister's head lovingly, then turned around and trotted away.

He would do anything as long as she could forgive him.

Dongfang Qingmo looked at his departing back and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

She gently swung on the swing in the yard, enjoying the coolness and tranquility brought by the breeze.

Not long after, Dongfang Qingshui came back with an exquisite box in his hand.

"Mo'er, come and see!" Dongfang Qingshui smiled mysteriously and handed the box to Dongfang Qingmo.

"What's in it?" Dongfang Qingmo stared at the box curiously, his heart full of anticipation.

Dongfang Qingshui smiled complacently: "You'll know if you open it and take a look."

Dongfang Qingmo took the box and was a little confused, but still opened the lid according to his instructions.

When she saw the items in the box, her eyes lit up.

A golden hairpin lay quietly in the box, emitting a dazzling light.

The hairpin is inlaid with sparkling jade, which contrasts with the golden body of the hairpin, making it look particularly gorgeous.

There are also exquisite flowers carved on the hairpin, and the details show ingenuity. The overall shape is noble and elegant.

Although Dongfang Qingmo didn't know much about jade, she could tell at a glance that this hairpin was worth a lot of money.

Especially the glittering gold, which made her exclaim in amazement.

"Wow..." she murmured softly, her eyes full of surprise.

Heavy!

The richest people’s families are different. Any gift they give out is enough for ordinary people to live on for decades.

Dongfang Qingshui stood aside, looking at her expectantly, as if waiting for her reaction.

Dongfang Qingmo asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Is it real gold?"

If it wouldn't make her look too rustic, she really wanted to put the piece of gold in her mouth and take a bite.

Dongfang Qingshui was speechless, thinking to herself: "My sister, why are you so unsophisticated?"

Shouldn't your attention be on that emerald? ! !

So he reminded: "Look again carefully..." and pointed in the direction of the jade.

However, Dongfang Qingmo still seemed not to understand Dongfang Qingshui's meaning.

Dongfang Qingshui sighed helplessly and had to explain patiently: "Look at the jadeite above, it's a stone dragon jadeite, unparalleled in the world, one of a kind!"

Hearing this, Dongfang Qingmo was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth and muttered to himself: "Uh... Is this a stone dragon jade?!!"

This kind of jade is also extremely rare in modern society. She had heard of it before and also found relevant descriptions in the original owner's memories.

Seeing Dongfang Qingmo so surprised and cherished, Dongfang Qingshui felt very satisfied.

Finally, he instructed: "From tomorrow on, you will carry this with you every day!"

Dongfang Qingmo shook her head and hid it in her arms like a treasure. If she remembered correctly, this was the seventh hairpin she had received at her coming-of-age ceremony.

But she received this one herself.

"Why put it away? Take it out and wear it. Our Mo'er deserves the best!" Dongfang Qingshui flattered him.

Dongfang Qingmo shook his head and cleared his throat, "Brother, I've decided what I want!"

"This? Isn't this it? You still want it?!"

"This is a gift for your coming-of-age, not a gift for breaking your promise."

"Okay, okay, you have the final say. So what do you want?"

"All your secret money!"

"What?!!"

"no?"

"I'm a man, and I must hide some money when I go out..." Dongfang Qingshui said with a bitter face, "So can you give me less? Leave some for me."

Moreover, he had already spent a lot of money in search of this jade, and the little that was left was squeezed out of his teeth.
