As soon as they heard about the marriage, many people became curious.
"Isn't this Xiao Ran?"
"What's going on? Why are you quarreling with your family?"
The masses didn't know what was going on. This kind of internal conflict usually didn't make sense. In an instant, more and more people gathered around.
"Xiao Ran! I know that the Chu family is in trouble now, but that's not the reason for you to steal things!" Chu Sheng looked proud: "I know you are jealous of me, but after all, this money is not yours, give it back to me now, look. Since you are half of the Chu family, you don’t have to report to the official."
"Oh? Report to the official?" Xiao Ran smiled half-heartedly.
Listening to the discussion around him, he also said loudly: "Yan Hong is the leader of the Chu family. Do you think I will care about your money?"
"If we remember wrongly, your family owed us a lot of money before, and you can't even pay it back, so you still want to accuse me of stealing money?" Xiao Ran sneered.
"Who said we have no money?" Chu Sheng was a little anxious.
But he immediately fell silent. If he admitted that he had money, wouldn't he deliberately not pay back the money?
If not, how could Xiao Ran steal the money?
For a moment, Chu Sheng became a little confused.
"That's right. If you had money, you wouldn't borrow money on purpose, wouldn't you?"
Hearing this, everyone nodded. This year is the most chaotic time. It is taboo for anyone to borrow money and not repay it.
It's not easy for anyone, money doesn't come with a strong wind, and no one looks down on that kind of leper.
"I..." Chu Sheng opened his mouth, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should speak or not.
"So, is this money yours?"
Xiao Ran shook the money bag in his hand, and there was a tinkling sound inside. The crisp sound of the silver coins hitting each other was really pleasant to the ear.
"This is mine!" Chu Sheng was naturally unwilling to give up so much money to others.
"So your family didn't pay back the money on purpose?" Xiao Ran followed Chu Sheng's words.
"No!" Seeing that the people around him were already a little unhappy, Chu Sheng shook his head repeatedly and then realized: "This is the money my father gave me for business."
"If I make any money, I will definitely give it back to you!"
Anyone who hears such words can tell that they are pure and simple.
This kid still has some brains. Xiao Ran smiled and said: "Since you said this is your money bag, tell me how much money is in it?"
"If you are right, then it will prove that I am a thief, right?"
Hearing this, Chu Sheng's eyes lit up.
"No, who knows if you might have done anything?"
If Xiao Ran touches the money inside, or collects part of it, and the amount is wrong, he will definitely say it is wrong at that time.
"When I stepped out, you followed me. How could I have time to spend?"
"In this case, I will hand the money bag to someone else and check the amount, so you don't have to worry, right?"
After saying that, Xiao Ran looked around and saw the owner of the inn next to him standing at the door, looking very lively.
"Boss, why don't you come as a witness?" Xiao Ran waved to the boss.
"Me?" The boss was happily eating melon when he suddenly ate it on himself.
"Okay!" The boss agreed and joined in the fun.
Xiao Ran handed the money bag to the boss.
"You still have to search yourself! In case there is money hidden on you!"
Chu Sheng looked wary, but Xiao Ran shrugged indifferently.
The boss came forward to search Xiao Ran and confirmed that there was no one on Xiao Ran. Chu Sheng felt relieved.
"Tell me, how much money is left in this bag?" Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows.
"I brought a total of two thousand taels of silver notes, five pieces of gold, and some broken silver today."
"Some broken silver?" Xiao Ran repeated.
"How much is that?"
Hearing this, Chu Sheng was a little confused. He had a lot of money recently, so he really didn't remember this little money.
"If you can't tell it, it's not your wallet."
"Wait!" Chu Sheng was a little anxious: "It's just broken silver, I don't care about it. Isn't this normal?"
Hearing this sentence, a group of people were a little unhappy. What do you mean by just some scraps of silver?
"That doesn't matter." Xiao Ran pursed his lips and reached for the money bag.
"Then how do you prove that this is yours!"
Chu Sheng gritted his teeth: "Do you know how much money is in it?"
"Of course I know my money."
"What if I can't tell?" Chu Sheng came out very quickly. When he saw Xiao Ran opening the money bag, he was immediately stopped by him. He must not have seen it clearly.
"I can't tell... Then I won't give it to you..." Xiao Ran smiled: "It's not yours anyway!"
"If you can't tell me, just report it to the official and let the official handle it!"
I heard that the official has been replaced recently, but Chu Tianshu has taken care of himself and should be able to find a way to get the money back.
"Okay!" Xiao Ran nodded and said, "If I remember correctly, there are a total of two thousand two hundred taels of silver notes in it, as well as three pieces of gold and five taels of broken silver."
"right!"
As soon as these words came out, the boss became excited.
"What?" Chu Sheng was a little in disbelief!
"No! How could there be two thousand two hundred taels in it? You must be in the same group!" Chu Sheng said fiercely.
You can only have less money, not more.
The boss looked at the suspicious eyes around him, then opened his money bag and took out the banknotes.
Counting one after another in public.
"Twenty-two silver notes, have you seen it?" The boss held the banknotes high.
"That's right, twenty-two!"
The people next to the boss spoke one after another.
"Impossible! You must be in the same group! You secretly stuffed the banknotes!"
With that said, he was about to take action, but was stopped by Xiao Ran.
"This boss and I don't know each other at all, and there is no cheating."
"Yes, everyone is watching. If I secretly stuffed the banknotes, I would definitely be seen."
"Yes! The boss was standing in front of me just now, and I kept staring!"
A woman carrying a vegetable basket spoke.
"Did you hear that?" Xiao Ran looked proud.
Chu's face turned green with anger.
"I don't have any money. I can lend you some more. You can't frame it like this, right? Are you right?"
Hearing this, everyone echoed.
"you!"
Although he knew that the money belonged to him, he couldn't do anything about Xiao Ran.
"Don't be proud!"
Chu Sheng glared at Xiao Ran and then left with the others.
Only the people in the teahouse just now were a little confused. They all looked at the way Chu Sheng spent money. It didn't look like he had no money!
They had also seen the money bag, but Xiao Ran was also from the Chu family, and they couldn't tell for a while whether the money bag belonged to Chu.
As soon as Chu Sheng left, the boss handed the money bag to Xiao Ran.
"Thank you." Xiao Ran nodded.
"Thank you too, guys!" As he said that, Xiao Ran took out the pieces of silver and threw them directly towards the crowd of onlookers.
Everyone started grabbing it, but the boss looked calm.
"Thank you, boss."
With that said, he took out the gold and stuffed it into the boss's hand.
Before the boss could speak, Xiao Ran turned and left.
