Old Master Cang glanced at Bai Yan's exaggerated expression and harrumphed in his heart. Old Master Cang clearly knew in his heart what Bai Yan wanted, and gently raised her eyelids. Old Master Cang knew that even if he didn't ask, Bai Yan would still take care of her own business and speak of what she wanted to say.

Seeing that the old man was not in the right path, Bai Yan secretly gritted her teeth, and continued to speak, "Old man, can you guess who I met at the auction?"

This time, although the old man was too lazy to bother with Bai Yan, he had already gotten to this point. If he did not say anything, it would be too much to continue the conversation.

Seeing that the old man was finally talking about the topic, Bai Yan slapped her thigh and said: "It's Qin Zheng. I haven't seen him in years. I didn't expect to see him this year."

The old man glanced at the excited Qin Zheng at the mention of Bai Yan, and an idea popped up in his mind. He then looked at Bai Yan with his sharp eyes and asked: "What's the matter?"

Bai Yan's heart trembled when the old man's gaze swept over her. She secretly underestimated him. This old man was really a veteran. Just a glance at him was still unbearable!

Initially, Bai Yan had wanted to use Qin Zheng as a cover and then target Lin Mo to sell off her mother-in-law's remnants. But now, with the old man's gaze sweeping over them, Bai Yan, this shitty stick, found it hard to endure and she did not know what to say next.

Actually, the reason why the old man had a cold expression the moment Bai Yan mentioned Qin Zheng was mainly because she thought that this eldest daughter in law wanted to introduce her to Qin Zheng. If that were the case, then he would have to think of a reason, okay? But since the matter had been rejected, since Bai Yan was the one who wanted to introduce Qin Zheng, he could not allow her wife, who did not know how to handle matters, to harm Qin Zheng, so no matter what, he could not let Bai Yan do it.

In just a moment, the two of them could be considered to have completely miscalculated.

"Heh heh, there is nothing special. Didn't we see this at the auction? I thought it was a long time since Qin Zheng returned, that's why I'm here with the old man."

While they were talking, under the sharp gaze of the old man, Bai Yan's voice got smaller and smaller, until it eventually became the buzzing of mosquitoes.

"Sure, if there's nothing else."

When the old man heard that Bai Yan did not mention anything about marriage, he changed the topic and asked, "Auction, what auction?"

Bai Yan had originally decided to stay put under the attack of the old man's eyes again and again, but now that the old man mentioned the auction, her enthusiasm had been restored in an instant. Thus, she said with a face full of smiles: "Dad, you don't know, this auction is going to be great, the bracelet that Lin Mo and her took out is the highlight of this auction."

"That bracelet was auctioned for over a million gold. At that time, it completely stunned everyone that was participating in the auction."

"Bracelet?" What bracelet? "

When Bai Yan saw that the old man finally asked about the matter regarding her bracelet, her heart was overjoyed. She put on an act and said, "Dad, you don't know about it? It's just that I left a bracelet with Cang Qing. I thought you knew, but you don't know anything at all! "Hey, look at my crappy mouth. What did I just say!"

Bai Yan was laughing in her heart as she pretended to be upset, complaining that she really said the wrong thing this time. Compared to Bai Yan's posturing, the old man was really angry now. She slammed both her hands on the table, looking at the table that was swaying from the old man's slapping, Bai Yan's heart was trembling.

The old man's eyes widened in rage, as his gaze landed on Bai Yan, scaring her to the point where she didn't even dare to breathe.

"That lass Lin Mo really has the guts to sell Huanhuan's bracelet. Go call Lin Mo and call her back."

"Dad, don't be angry yet. There might be some misunderstanding. Have a cup of tea first and calm down."

When the old man found out that his wife's favorite bracelet had been sold, how could he still have the mood to drink tea? In a fit of anger, he swept the tea cup Bai Yan brought over with a 'pa' sound on the ground, causing the old man's finger to tremble with anger. Pointing a finger at Bai Yan, she ordered sternly, "Call Lin Mo and call her back.

Mama Li was preparing a fruit platter in the kitchen. When she heard the old man's shout, she immediately perked up her ears and listened attentively, which caused a burst of fear in her heart. She came to the Cang household after the old lady passed away, but when she heard the old man angrily looking for Lin Mo to return to the old house, she immediately called Lu Yuan while hiding in the kitchen.

"Yes, adviser Lu? Could you give me a call to Second Young Master? I have urgent business with Second Young Master."

When Cang Qing reached Aunt Li's phone, he hurriedly put down the work in his hands and hurried to meet her. After she hung up the phone, she hurriedly went to the hall. She had never seen the old man so angry at his daughter-in-law before.

When Lin Mo received the call from Bai Yan, she had just returned home from work. Recently, due to the matter with Lin Xianfeng, she was feeling very agitated. When she heard the buzzing sound of the phone, she opened the answer button and became even more agitated.

"Hey, sister-in-law, the old man wants you to return to the old house as soon as possible."

Lin Mo furrowed her brows, why did this old man want him to go back to her old home? Was it Bai Yan who called? Suddenly, an idea popped into her mind, and Lin Mo felt as though the blood in her body was going to freeze solid. Even the hand holding the phone began to tremble.

"Alright, I'll go back now. I'll go back right away."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Mo rushed into her bedroom, put on her clothes and rushed out. In her heart, she had already scolded Bai Yan, this shitty stick, a thousand times over, there really is always you everywhere, only afraid that the world would not be chaotic, just that you don't like it, she bit her lips fiercely, left the room and hit the ground, hurriedly rushing towards her old house.

After paying the money, Lin Mo stood in front of the door of the old house and looked at the old house in front of him. After paying the money, Lin Mo stood in front of the old house and looked at the old house in front of him.

Not long after the doorbell rang, Mrs Li opened the door to see Lin Mo. She gave Lin Mo a look and said, "Second Young Madam, you've returned."

Lin Mo walked into the living room and saw the old man with his back towards him. Just as Lin Mo was about to call out for her father, the old man suddenly turned around and stared at Lin Mo as if staring at a prey. When Lin Mo first came to the door, the old man might have slapped her on the face, but compared to now, the old man was truly a great witch.

"I heard you sold the jade bracelets your mother-in-law left behind?"

Lin Mo stood firmly on the ground. She wanted to say that she had only missold the jade bracelet because she was angry at Xie Wanjun, but saying something like that only proved that she was a jealous woman. Even she couldn't forgive herself for doing such a thing, much less ask the old man to forgive herself.

"Yes."

With her head lowered, Lin Mo did not dare to look into the eyes of the old man. The kind of gaze that wanted to grind her to dust was something that she could not endure.

"Good, good, my old man thinks that he has always been very accurate with people in his life, but I didn't expect that he would fall into your hands today, Lin Mo, you really have good acting skills, it's a shame that I thought you were a good kid, but this time my old man is really blind."

"Dad, don't be so angry. Little Sister-in-law is still so young, don't lower yourself to her level."

Heh, this really added fuel to the fire. When the old man heard Bai Yan's words, the anger in his heart grew even more serious.

"Xiao, is she still young? She's already a wife, and she's even talking about a little kid. Is she still not an adult, or is she still not weaned?"

"Dad, I know I was wrong. I promise you, I will get the bracelet back in one piece. Dad, will you forgive me this time?"

"Shut up, Lin Mo. Scram for me. From today onwards, you are not allowed to take another step into this old dwelling."

The moment Lin Mo heard the old man's words, his pupils abruptly shrunk. Otherwise, if she were to take another step into the old mansion, it would be no different from getting a divorce from Cang Qing. Immediately, Lin Mo's eyes blurred with tears, and she fell to her knees on the ground.

"Dad, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time. I will definitely find the bracelet."

Lin Mo knelt down and crawled in the direction of the old man. Both of her hands were holding onto the old man's clothes as he was mercilessly slapped away by the old man. The white hands of Lin Mo instantly became swollen and bloodshot.

It was just that due to the old man, she did not dare to reveal her happiness, but in her heart, she was already blooming with joy. Compared to Bai Yan gloating over her misfortune, Mother Li's heart ached as she watched Lin Mo plead bitterly.

Her family also had a daughter who was around the same age as Lin Mo. If her family's young lady was treated like this in her in-laws' house, then her heart would definitely ache for her. So, when she saw Lin Mo kneeling on the ground and begging, she couldn't take it anymore.

"Old gramps, Second Young Madam isn't someone who doesn't understand reason. Perhaps there's some misunderstanding."

When Bai Yan heard that her mother Li was actually willing to plead for Lin Mo, she immediately glared at her mother. How could a servant like her talk here? However, the old man had already lost her rationality due to anger, so Bai Yan would naturally say something at this time.

"Dad, I beg of you, please let me go this time. I will definitely get the bracelet back."

If one were to see this, he would definitely feel a heartache in his heart. If it was the normally rational old man, he would definitely not do such a thing, selling his mother-in-law's remains, for no reason at all. However, the old man had already lost his rationality because of Lin Mo's sale of his wife's things, so naturally, he would not be able to think of this.

"Lin Mo, you don't need to say anything more. Scram, immediately scram. I have already made my decision on this matter and will not change it."
