With all the personal and material evidence available, it is impossible for Zhao Tianbao to deny it.
As the "local official" of Huaxi Village, Li Zheng has no rank, but he is still a virtuous elder elected by the local villagers. What's more, Zhao Tianbao's family is "notorious" and no one wants to protect them.
Originally, some villagers suggested that Su Qingluan open the small cloth bag inside and ask someone to identify the value of the stolen tips. If it exceeds a certain amount, he will be sent to the official, and the whole family may even be sentenced to exile.
Su Qingluan shook her head and said that it was not a very valuable object. If the other party's random biting was not detrimental to her reputation, she would not bother to care about it.
In fact, Su Qingluan thought of the object in the sachet. It was none other than the "little man" who had been rescued by the Heimlich maneuver in "Hongfu Tower" before and was choked by the fermented rice dumplings. A jade pendant for her.
Su Qingluan didn't have any vision for appraising jade ornaments, but he also knew that such a delicate, soft, and exquisitely carved jade pendant was unlikely to be an ordinary item. He was afraid that it would be too eye-catching, so he simply downplayed the big deal.
Later, Su Qingluan deeply regretted today's cautious move - of course, it was some time later.
Therefore, with all the witnesses and material evidence available, Zhao Tianbao was sentenced to be whipped fifty lashes in front of the village in public.
Although Zhao Youde and Chen were both promiscuous, they did not dare to act arrogantly in front of Li Zheng - unless they no longer wanted to stay in the village.
However, because Zhao Tianbao was caught stealing this time, this family has a grudge against the Su family, especially Su Qingluan, but this is another story.
Su Qingluan did not watch Zhao Tianbao being whipped with Su Guangfu. After all, he was dragged to cook for Xie Zian, a boy in the second grade of middle school, early in the morning, and it was a long journey. After returning home, he ran into trouble with Zhao Tianbao. Su Qingluan didn't even eat dinner and went back to the house. Sleeping like a fool.
After waking up the next day, Su Qingluan felt that it was unusually quiet outside, and did not hear the noise that had been everywhere in the past few days.
I went out and took a look - sure enough, it was raining, and the work I planned to continue today had to be stopped.
Fortunately, the most important repairs to the roof and walls have been completed a few days ago, so there is no need for the Su family to hold containers such as barrels and basins in the house today to catch the rain.
Yesterday's dinner and today's breakfast were cooked by Yang, and the two little devils didn't come to trouble Su Qingluan in the morning, so by the time she woke up, everyone was already sitting in the main room halfway through breakfast.
"I'm really sorry, I got up late..." Su Qingluan felt that her legs were a little sore - she walked so much yesterday, and now the consequences of excessive exercise are showing.
Seeing that her eldest daughter still looked a little tired, Ms. Yang felt very distressed: "I'll eat breakfast later to cushion my stomach, and then go rest for a while."
She thought that Su Qingluan didn't have a good rest because of yesterday's incident with Zhao Tianbao, so when she had dinner, she specially pulled Su Qingluan to her side and comforted her: "Da Ya, don't be sad. Since Li Zheng has judged that Zhao family boy If his hands and feet are not clean, no one will believe his random biting words."
"What?" Su Qingluan didn't follow her mother's thinking at all. She was still thinking about how long it would take to get that shop, what kind of business that shop was suitable for, etc. When she heard Yang's words, she was a little dazed for a moment.
"Don't worry, grandma will definitely arrange a good marriage for you!" Yang assured with a very serious expression.
"??" Su Qingluan's face was filled with questions. Did she miss any key information?
In order to prevent a bigger misunderstanding, Su Qingluan quickly explained: "Aniang, I'm not worried about this... I'm thinking about the shop."
"Shop?" Yang was stunned, "What shop?"
Su Qingluan thought for a while, called Su Guangfu over, and told him what happened at Xie Zian's place yesterday from beginning to end. Then he put a hundred taels of silver notes in his hand on the table: "Here, the silver notes are here. Here, you two don’t have to worry about Xie Xiaolangjun tricking me for a shop."
After all, the real benefits have been obtained.
Yang looked at Su Guangfu at a loss. Although Su Guangfu had no experience in dealing with wealthy people, he had a calmer personality. He did not deny what Su Qingluan had done, but only mentioned: "Be careful in everything, don't just see the benefits, weigh a lot about what you need to pay - if there is anything, you must tell your parents, they will definitely help you." help you."
Although Su Qingluan has long passed the age of "requiring help from her parents", Su Guangfu's words still made her feel warm.
"Dad, I understand."
After getting down to business, everyone started to get in the mood to have some family fun.
Yang laughed and said, "You went to bed early last night and missed the Li family's wife. She brought delicious food for the three of you!"
The Li family's wife is Sun Guixiang, who has always gotten along well with the Su family.
Su Qingluan also liked Sun Guixiang's cheerful and enthusiastic temperament very much, so she also had some regrets: "I have been busy these days, and I rarely chat with Aunt Li! What did she bring to eat?" Zuo was just at the market. Su Qingluan thought about those gadgets for coaxing children.
"It's banana! There are two left!" Yang said, smiled, turned around and went outside. After a while, she took two bright yellow pieces of food in her hands, opened the curtain and entered.
Su Qingluan took a closer look - isn't this a banana?
Yang held the two bananas and sighed: "Although these bananas are not very sweet, I heard that if ripe bananas are not easy to store, I'm afraid this is what they have to do."
With that said, he handed one to Su Qingluan.
Su Qingluan peeled off the banana skin, broke it off and tasted it bit by bit - although it could not be said that it was not ripe, it was obviously not a fully ripe banana. Although the skin was yellow, the flesh was not yet completely soft and sweet. , a bit stiff, and the sweetness is not that strong.
Su Qingluan rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Auntie, I've come up with a way to make the bananas sweeter. Please call Aunt Li's family over. Let's eat the bananas together?"
With that said, he turned around and went to the kitchen.
One side of the kitchen room is a bit messy. It is obvious that they planned to expand and modify the layout. They removed some of the original shelves and piled up a lot of debris.
Su Qingluan walked around the mess, took the iron pot and looked down at the stove - fortunately, although breakfast had been burned, the fire in the stove had not been completely extinguished yet.
Su Qing added a cup of clean water at the bottom of the iron pot, carefully pulled the blast box to let fresh air enter the furnace, and then filled in some firewood to make the fire burn more vigorously.
When you feel depressed or physically tired, it’s natural to eat sweets!
Su Qingluan naturally understands that in this era, she has to say goodbye to many Western pastries, but there are always other choices-for example, now, she can make a carrot banana to comfort her tired body!
