After hearing what the Ji family said, everyone just followed He Xini and said, "Yes! This matter cannot be discussed like this!"
"Although Aunt Ji likes to take advantage of her, she really wouldn't do such a thing!" Some people also started to speak up for Aunt Ji. .
Hearing what everyone said, Aunt Ji was a little touched. After all, she didn't expect that at such a critical moment, the person she usually disliked, the Su family, who she always thought was an imaginary enemy, would actually jump out in front of her, and She was the first to speak for herself.
How could Aunt Ji not be moved by this, and how could she not feel guilty.
However, Aunt Ji was moved, but Mrs. Zhao's face became even more embarrassed, "Things have come to this point, and you still want to protect her! Are there any of you like this? I'm telling you, I'm not done with Aunt Ji!"
However, just when Mrs. Zhao was about to push Su away, unexpectedly, Li Changzhi finally came over. He said very unhappily, "What time of the day is it? Why are you still gathering here?" ?Aren’t you going to sleep?”
Hearing what the chief said, everyone suddenly woke up. It was getting late and it was almost curfew time. If they didn't go back quickly, they didn't know what would happen to them.
However, Mrs. Zhao obviously still refused to give up.
After all, if she loses her money, doesn't it cost her her life? So she could let the other onlookers go, but she refused to let Aunt Ji and her family go.
Seeing that Mrs. Zhao was only embarrassing Ji's family, the chief couldn't help but said, "Mother Zhao, what are you doing? Do you want to be taken away?"
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhao was really upset this time.
"If you're caught, you'll be caught. Even if I'm caught, I can't let them run away like this!" Mrs. Zhao said bitterly.
Obviously there is something going on between them. If this matter is not resolved, there is a real possibility that Mrs. Zhao will not leave.
Therefore, the head of the village couldn't help but said to Mrs. Zhao, "If you want to say something, just say it directly. You are alone now, why do you have to make everything so awkward?"
Hearing the words of the head of the house, Mrs. Zhao immediately retorted, "It's not me who wants to make things worse! It's them who bullied me because I have no one in my family now! The head of the house, Aunt Ji, is a thief! She stole my personal money, isn't that right?" Do you want me to die?"
After hearing what Mrs. Zhao said, Aunt Ji immediately defended herself and said, "Chief, I definitely didn't steal their money!"
The chief looked at the dark sky and couldn't help but said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense! It's getting late. If you stay here, you'll be arrested. Follow me to my house first." , it’s okay to explain things clearly!”
The chief works fairly and speaks with authority, so everyone is actually convinced by his handling of things.
Therefore, after hearing what the village chief said, the Ji family naturally responded, and Mrs. Zhao did not object.
Soon the two families went straight to the elder's home.
Before the chief went in, he also said hello to the Wuhous from the nearby Wuhou Shop.
Therefore, Wu Hou chose to turn a blind eye to their night journey.
When they got home, Mrs. Li Chang saw that apart from her own men, the only people who came into the house were Ji and Zhao's family.
Aunt Ji and Mrs. Zhao are usually very close to each other this time. I don't know what happened today, but these two old best friends just acted like they didn't want to talk to each other.
Seeing this situation, Mrs. Li couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? It's already under curfew. Why are these two families still here?"
Upon hearing the question from the chief's wife, the chief only said, "Don't ask, I am also in a mess now. Just go and make some tea for them!"
Mrs. Li Chang was not angry when she heard this. She just said "Hello" and then left the lobby directly.
After that, the head of the house took the initiative to invite others to sit with him.
After everyone was seated, the director took the initiative and asked, "What is going on?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Zhao family and the Ji family were scrambling to
After telling their grievances, both of them seemed to be afraid that the other would gain a good reputation.
"Here's what happened!"
"Chief, listen to me."
Once the several sounds were mixed, the whole scene was filled with only chirping sounds.
The director couldn't help but said loudly to them, "Okay, stop arguing. You talk one by one! Whoever I call on his name will speak. Anyone who doesn't call on me will shut up."
After hearing what the chief said, the Ji and Zhao families stopped talking.
Then the director looked at Mrs. Zhao, who was the host of the suffering, and said, "Mother Zhao, please speak first."
After hearing that the chief asked her to speak first, Mrs. Zhao immediately told the chief what she had seen and heard, "Chief, Aunt Ji stole my family's money!"
Hearing what Mrs. Zhao said when she spoke, Aunt Ji became angry and said, "You fart! When did I steal your money?"
"You just stole it!" Mrs. Zhao said rudely.
Hearing that the two were about to quarrel again, the head of the house said very displeasedly, "Is it you who say it or I listen to you? If you want to solve it yourself, you can go out now!"
After hearing what Li Chang said, everyone suddenly didn't dare to say any more words.
Then Li Chang said, "Mrs. Zhao, please continue and tell me why you think Aunt Ji has stolen your money."
"Chief, I had a fight with Aunt Ji this morning. We were considered enemies at that time. I didn't take it seriously and went out to look for my husband and son. But I didn't expect that when I came back in the afternoon, I But the door of my house was wide open, and when I returned home, it was even more in a mess. I felt something was wrong at that time, so I hurriedly went in and took a look, and I found that there was nothing in the piggy bank at home, and it was empty."
"At that time, I just suspected that Aunt Ji did this. After all, she likes to do things that are easy to do, and we had another fight today, so I think she had a motive to do this. I I wanted to go find her and ask her, and confront her! At first, she kept saying that she had never been to my house, let alone entered my house, so she could not steal my money? But then someone in the crowd immediately exposed Aunt Ji, then People say Aunt Ji has entered my house!"
"Aunt Ji didn't refute at that time. She only said that she entered my house but didn't steal any money!"
"Chief, do you think this is possible? Your enemy went to your house and opened your door. After all, she said she didn't steal my money. How can my money grow wings and fly!"
Hearing what Mrs. Zhao said, the director knew that the other party's basis was probably this, so she just interrupted Mrs. Zhao's complaint and said, "Okay, I'll listen to what Aunt Ji has to say, don't say anything yet."
Although Mrs. Zhao was reluctant, she still nodded in cooperation.
Aunt Ji obviously had a lot to say at this time. She first said, "I really didn't steal her money! And I didn't open her door either!"
"In that case, why did you go to her house? Didn't you just have a quarrel?" the chief asked.
Hearing the chief's question, Aunt Ji immediately said, "I went there in the afternoon just because I wanted to quarrel with her. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. When I went in, her door was also open, so I thought She was at home. I subconsciously thought she was at home, so I strode in. The house was already like that when I entered. Who can blame me! I saw something was wrong, but I didn’t take anything. .”
"You really didn't take anything?" the chief said deceitfully.
Facing the director's words, Aunt Ji felt a little embarrassed for a moment, remembering the embarrassment that she had just vowed not to go to Mrs. Zhao's house but was exposed. Aunt Ji couldn't help but whisper, "Okay, I admit that I actually took some things at that time!"
"What did you take?" the resident asked.
Aunt Ji whispered awkwardly, "I pinched a handful of sunflower seeds and stole an egg from her house. I ate the sunflower seeds for lunch, and I put the eggs in my own basket!"
"That's all you took?" The director looked at Aunt Ji with questioning eyes.
Aunt Ji really explained clearly this time, so she nodded affirmatively.
In fact, this is in line with Aunt Ji's problem, but it is obvious that Mrs. Zhao does not believe this. "You have stolen so much, and you still care about that. Don't you just think that no one knows, so you are talking nonsense here!"
Hearing Mrs. Zhao's question, Mrs. Su immediately said, "Mr. Zhao, if my mother-in-law really stole, she would probably only steal these two things from you. I can testify to this!"
"You testify? How do you testify?" Mrs. Zhao asked angrily.
Facing Mrs. Zhao's question, Mrs. Su only whispered, "She came back for a while this afternoon. At that time, I saw that she had indeed taken these things, but there was nothing else in her hands."
Hearing Su's words, Mrs. Zhao immediately said angrily, "Of course she can't have anything else in her hand. She put all the money in her pocket, but no one saw it!"
When Su heard this, she said unconvinced, "That's exactly what I want to say. My mother-in-law was already in a mess when she came back, so she changed clothes directly in the yard. The clothes she changed later didn't have pockets, and her hands I didn’t take any money from her. I usually wash my clothes, so if she stole your money, the money must have been in her coat at the time. I always check the clothes carefully before washing them, so if my mother-in-law After stealing your money, I could take something out of my pocket, but there is nothing in her!"
Hearing Su's words, Aunt Ji was even more moved. If her daughter-in-law hadn't been careful, she would have been unable to argue today.
She just cooperated immediately and said, "Yes! Yes! Yes! This is indeed what happened at that time. I didn't pay attention on the way back and accidentally fell into the smelly ditch. I felt dirty at the time and felt it was embarrassing. I went home I immediately changed my clothes in the yard."
