Old Mrs. Gu was having trouble breathing, and Mrs. Gu tended to her.

She nodded when she heard the question. "Yes, I did. I was wearing it, then my daughter-in-law wanted to look at it, so I took it off and gave it to her. Then —"

"Then we passed it around," said Mrs. Zuo. "I handed it to Mrs. Dugu."

Mrs. Dugu said, "I handed it to old Mrs. Long."

Old Mrs. Long said, "I handed it to Lady Northern Feng."

Mrs. Tao asked old Mrs. Gu, "I was the last one to handle it before passing it back to you. Do you remember that?"

Old Mrs. Gu looked surprised. "Really? Right, I remember now."

Mrs. Tao said, "Miss Feng Wu was the last to come into the room, and the bracelet was right on the table next to you."

Mrs. Zuo nodded. "That's true. I saw it, too."

Mrs. Dugu hadn't seen it, but she now realized what was going on, so she nodded as well. "That's right. I saw it, too. The bracelet was right there on the table."
