Mama Tian rolled her eyes and said with an annoyance: “The neife ordered the ers fortime before they found theers for many years, and the dust is a bit more natural and inevitable”
The implication of Mama Tian’s words was very obviousFor so many years, noYuezhen wanted to check, so obviously she did not believe her
Jiang Yuezhen covered herat the books on the tableWith so many books, it was not easy to find out the whereabouts of a set of red-and-gold hair ornaments
Mama Cui pursed her lips a few ti, but hesitated for a
She wanted to reold and silver jewelry was a separate copy, and it shouldn’t be difficult to find out the approxi at this situation, Math, so she shouldn’t help Jiang Yuezhen so obviouslyAfter all, Mama Tian was an old lady in the mansion for many yearsIt was not easy to offend herWhat’s more, Mu shi+ had just passed away, and Mama Cui had no mistressShe still didn’t kno to live in the Yu house in the future and tried to do as little offending as possible

Ma her mistressShe had worked in the warehouse for anized everything in and out of the warehouse in an orderly mannerBecause of this, Lady Yu and Mu shi+ trusted her
Jiang Yuezhen really didn’t know the unwritten rules in the Yu house, let alone that Ma the situation in front of Mama Tian, she asked her to check the accounts herself
Seeing these dusty ledgers, Jiang Yuezhen felt a headache cos to deal withWas it worth it to waste several days to check these dusty ledgers for red-and-gold hair ornaht for a while and asked Mama Cui: “The Lady that she would leave the hair ornaments to the Sixth LadyWhen was that?”

I reave theet itI really didn’t know”
Without knowing, Ma Yuezhen’s ht, but they found nothing
