Chapter 0278 String-Pulling Trade 2_1

During dinner, Feng Qingxue did not mention the incidents that had occurred that day because she did not want the three children to know. Guan Cheng and Lu Tianjun seemed to share the same thought, remaining silent on the matter. It wasn't until the next day when everyone had gone off to school or out the door for their tasks, under broad daylight in the cowshed, while feeding the mules, did Feng Qingxue begin to disclose the matter about the bracelet to Father Lu.

A flash of surprise passed through Father Lu's eyes and he blurted out, "How is that possible?"

The Dragon and Phoenix Bracelet with the embedded ruby should have been with Miao Fengqin, how could it turn up in town? The Wang family wasn't so hard-pressed that they would resort to selling off their possessions. He wasn't oblivious to the true state of Wang Zhengguo's wealth and he knew Miao Fengqin wouldn't be foolhardy enough to bring it out.

Feng Qingxue found this very odd on hearing this.
