After Su Yuniang returned to the Su family, she found Su Xiaoxiao and told her what she had found out from the Su family.
"The jade pendant belongs to your father. Your father was alone at that time and didn't have any other relatives. A piece of your father's jade pendant accidentally fell and was picked up by my grandfather and great-grandfather. As for how your father obtained the two jade pendants, my grandfather said that it was very chaotic in the middle of the year and there were dead people everywhere. Perhaps your father took it from some dead person."
Countless people died in the disaster year. Some starved to death, and some died of illness. Some poor people could not live anymore and occupied mountains as bandits, robbing rich families who passed by. This situation was not rare.
Not all the bones on the road belonged to the poor, and many rich families had been killed.
It was indeed possible that Su Cheng had taken it off a corpse.
