"Mother!" Ye Xia stood in place, stomping her foot unhappily, not knowing what she was so angry about.
Ye Wangshi comforted her: "It's alright, aren't they just two pieces of jewelry? Anyway, you young ladies don't usually wear a full set daily, so if they are lost, they are lost."
"But the two pieces that are lost are a necklace and a bracelet." Ye Xia was somewhat frustrated—she thought it was clearly the little bird that her younger sister deliberately trained to mock her, otherwise how could an ordinary bird be so clever?
"Enough." The family head Ye Borong growled, "What does this matter have to do with your sister? Do you want your mother and me to demand an explanation for you? Don't you know your sister's situation? Does she have the energy to mock you? Is the whole Luoxia Courtyard lying? Besides, if you hadn't insisted on taking your sister's little bird, how would you have ended up like this today?"
