Bai Qiaoyin opened it as she was told, and sure enough, she saw a lot of beautiful and exquisite jewelry.
There are head ornaments, hairpins, and very luxurious necklaces.
Madam Yin said with a complicated expression, "Our Yin family's foundation was built by your grandfather's hard work. Back then, he braved the hardships of sea trade, and that's why he prepared such a large dowry for you. He was afraid that the royal family would neglect you. He always said that money is a woman's support after marriage!"
Bai Qiaoyin felt a little warm in her heart. It turned out that her grandfather loved her so much.
She will protect the wealth left to her by her grandfather and will never let the jackals take it away!
She calmed down and let Ling'er carry the jewelry box to Mrs. Yin.
Madam Yin reached out and groped around. She picked up an emerald headpiece and asked, "Is the gem on it green?"
Bai Qiaoyin was about to answer, but after a moment, her expression became solemn and ugly.
It is obvious that this headgear is fake, and the workmanship is very crude. You can tell it at a glance.
Lin Yiwan obviously noticed it as well. She reached out and touched it, and found that her palm was stained with green paint.
She mouthed two words to Bai Qiaoyin: "Fake!"
Bai Qiaoyin's heart tightened with anger. She turned around and saw Madam Yin's hopeful eyes, and her eyes immediately turned red.
Perhaps noticing something strange about her, Old Lady Yin immediately asked, "My dear granddaughter, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Qiaoyin was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke, "Grandma, who kept these jewels for you before?"
Madam Yin replied, "Of course it's Nanny Jinxi. She's my personal nanny, and the one I trust the most!"
After a brief pause, she reacted quickly.
She asked anxiously, "Is there something wrong with my jewelry? Yue'er, tell me the truth. Don't try to hide it from Grandma. Tell me what happened."
Bai Qiaoyin had no choice but to answer: "All the jewelry in the box is fake, not a single one is real!"
Madam Yin was trembling all over, and she angrily shouted, "Jinxi, it must have been Jinxi who did it. She replaced these precious jewellery of mine. I never thought she could do such a treacherous thing!"
Bai Qiaoyin was worried that she might be hurting herself due to her emotional excitement, so she immediately stepped forward to hug her and said, "Grandma, although Nanny Jinxi is dead, judging by the fact that the elder of the clan shot her, the master behind her must be the eldest lady. Please be patient, I will help you get those jewelry back!"
Old Madam Yin grasped her wrist tightly and begged, "You must take it back. It's the only thought your grandfather left me. I want to leave it to you. It must not fall into the hands of those jackals!"
Bai Qiaoyin nodded in agreement and let Ling'er stay with the old lady first.
She took Lin Yiwan out and ordered someone to move the box of fake precious jewelry to the eldest lady's yard.
When the two arrived at the gate of the yard, they saw many men in black holding bows and arrows and standing ready for battle.
Bai Qiaoyin remained undaunted. She said in a cold voice, "Didn't you all see how the elder just died tragically? We just want to take back what belongs to our grandmother and don't want to kill innocent people!"
The leader of the secret guards hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Okay, I'll go in and tell Madam Bing first!"
He hurried into the house and heard the eldest lady scolding the doctor: "Didn't you say your medical skills are the best? Why can't you even cure my daughter's injuries?"
The doctor replied tremblingly, "Madam, the second young lady's injuries were too severe. Her skin was blown off. Even if I were an expert doctor, I wouldn't be able to put a new piece of skin back on her face!"
The lady was so angry that she raised her foot to kick him, and he was so scared that he immediately ran away.
The leader of the death squad finally spoke: "Madam, the eldest lady has brought people outside to ask for an audience!"
The eldest lady was so frightened that her whole body was shaking violently. How could that evil star come to her so quickly? What else did she want to do with her?
No, I can’t see him!
She spoke quickly: "Tell her that because the second young lady was injured, I am in a very bad mood and have no time to see her. Tell her to leave quickly!"
Just as she finished speaking, she heard Bai Qiaoyin's mocking voice coming from outside: "Madam, where do you want me to go?"
The eldest lady subconsciously took a half step back and said, "Yin Yue, I didn't force you to do anything. Your uncle has already been killed by you. Do you really want to kill our entire family?"
Bai Qiaoyin shook her head gently: "No, how could I be so cruel and heartless? I came here just to ask the eldest lady to return those precious jewels of my grandmother!"
The eldest lady interrupted immediately: "How could my mother's precious jewelry be with me? You've got the wrong person!"
Bai Qiaoyin guessed that she would deny it, but she had a way to deal with her.
She narrowed her eyes and said, "I just heard the doctor who left say that you want to treat your daughter's face? Do you want to restore her appearance to its original state?"
The eldest lady gritted her teeth and said, "My Mingyue is still so young. How can she get married in the future if her face is ruined?"
Bai Qiaoyin pulled Lin Yiwan over and said, "Looking for my sister? She's the best doctor in the capital. You should have heard of her reputation, right? She's cured many difficult and complicated illnesses!"
The eldest lady's eyes lit up, but dimmed again after a moment. She was not a fool and would not believe that Bai Qiaoyin would be so kind as to let Lin Yiwan treat her Mingyue's face.
She frowned and said, "You must have some intention!"
Bai Qiaoyin lowered her eyes and chuckled softly, "Madam, what you said is quite strange. How can you say you have ulterior motives? This is called an exchange of interests. How do you feel about using half of your daughter's face in exchange for Grandmother's precious jewelry?"
She deliberately raised her voice so that Yin Mingyue in the room could hear it.
Sure enough, before the eldest lady could say anything, Yin Mingyue's weak and nervous voice came out: "Mother, come in, I have something to say!"
The eldest lady looked at Bai Qiaoyin warily, turned around and walked quickly towards the inner room.
She reached out and helped Yin Mingyue up: "Don't believe her words. How could she really treat your injuries? She hates us for not dying!"
Yin Mingyue's resentful eyes suddenly fell on her face, shocking her so much that she shuddered subconsciously.
She avoided her daughter's ghostly, damaged face and spoke tremblingly, "Mingyue, why are you looking at mother like that?"
Yin Mingyue clenched her teeth tightly and said, "She's right. In this world, only the Marquis' wife can restore my appearance. No other doctor can do it!"
The eldest lady said in embarrassment: "But I can't get those jewels back at all. They are all in the Sifang Pawn Shop!"
Yin Mingyue interrupted angrily, "Which is more important, the jewelry or my face? If I can restore my appearance, we will have a chance to make a comeback. Do you think you can stay in the Yin family in Shicheng?"
