Mrs. Li Zhou produced the wooden box, and the noisy crowd surrounding her gradually quieted down, all eyes fixed on her.
"Bring it up!"
Zhang Bingwen coughed once and ordered someone to retrieve the box. When opened, inside was a Mutton Fat Jade Pendant of exceptional quality.
"Tsk, what a fine thing, this is clearly the property of a wealthy family!"
As soon as Zhang Bingwen arrived, he labeled Li Qingmu as someone from a noble lineage and then inspected the pendant carefully, finally focusing on the "Zhang" character on the back.
Mrs. Li Zhou seized the opportunity and said, "Sir, when our third child was born, he passed away immediately. On the night we were preparing to bury him, a man in black broke in, carrying Li Qingmu, coercing us to raise him to adulthood and offered this pendant as payment!
