Second Aunt of the Li Family steadied her nerves.
These three clearly wouldn't respond to pressure, so she tried a gentler approach and started pleading with Su Qing.
"Good girl, I beg you to return the silver to me. Fifty taels is the lifetime savings of us farmers. This silver is for my son to marry a wife. Please have mercy on me, I don't even want the embroiderer's position, just give me back the silver."
No matter what Second Aunt of the Li Family said, Su Qing was confident she hadn't seen the silver, insisting it was all slander from Second Aunt of the Li Family.
She even boldly claimed that if one is upright, they should fear no shadow, daring Second Aunt of the Li Family to go to the officials.
Second Aunt of the Li Family fell into despair.
Suing Su Qing for embezzling her silver would require witnesses.
