This was quite a big scene.
After all, people of all ages loved to watch the show…
In addition, there were too few entertainment methods in this era, so almost everyone was present.
Ye Chen looked around. The three of them were not here. They must have been hidden at home.
First Uncle, Second Uncle, and Third Uncle sat in front of the table. They were all very serious.
However, those who had watched television dramas knew that First Uncle was a really good person.
Even if Silly Zhu admitted that he stole the chicken, First Uncle would still protect him…
"Today, the entire academy's meeting was held for one thing. One of Xu Damao's chickens was stolen.”
"After my investigation and repeated lack of manpower, I've already found the person who stole the chicken!”
"It's Silly Zhu!" Second Uncle said firmly," Silly Zhu, do you plead guilty?”
"I stole it!" Silly Zhu was holding back his anger as he said.
"What do you mean you stole it? If you stole it, then you stole it. If you didn't steal it, then you didn't steal it.”First Uncle was furious at Silly Zhu. He had watched Silly Zhu grow up, but he didn't expect Silly Zhu to do such a thing!
Silly Zhu glanced at Qin Huairu and noticed a small detail. The stick was not there!
He's really selling me out…
Silly Zhu gritted his teeth," I…I didn't steal it!”
He suddenly changed his mind.
Qin Huairu's body trembled violently. What was going on?
Didn't he already admit it just now? Why did he suddenly go back on his word?
This…
Qin Huairu's gaze landed on Ye Chen, who was not far away. Could it be because of him?
At this moment, Ye Chen finally smiled.
His appearance had changed this matter…at least Silly Zhu wasn't as stupid as before.
In fact, Ye Chen could have just ignored this matter. It was none of his business.
However, as someone who had received nine years of compulsory education and knew what was right and wrong, he could not accept it.
He Yuzhu was a very kind person. He should not be played by a widow!
"Why are you still quibbling?”Xu Damao was furious." Did you steal this chicken from the canteen?”
"What does this have to do with you? Don't talk nonsense!”Silly Zhu was anxious and glared at Xu Damao.
At this moment, First Uncle also spoke up," Then tell me, where did you get this chicken?”
"I bought it!"
"Wait! Grandpa Yi, can I say something?" Just as the First Uncle was about to ask more questions, Ye Chen spoke.
He couldn't stand it anymore. Silly Zhu didn't do anything, so why was he being interrogated like a criminal?
"And who are you?" The First Uncle looked at Ye Chen and asked.
"I'm Brother Zhu's distant cousin. I'll be moving in from today onwards! My name is Ye Chen. You can call me Little Chen.”Ye Chen introduced himself.
"Little Chen, right? We're interrogating Silly Zhu, don't interrupt!”The first uncle said unhappily.
Of course I had to interrupt!
If he didn't interrupt, Silly Zhu would be exposed!
"Since First Uncle asked where this chicken came from, then I have to ask Xu Damao, where did you get this chicken?”Ye Chen said to Xu Damao," You didn't use your position to get this chicken, did you?”
"You…you're slandering me. I bought it!”Xu Damao immediately said.
"Where did you buy it?"
"Why are you asking so many questions? We're talking in our own courtyard. What does it have to do with an outsider like you?”Xu Damao was furious and glared at Ye Chen.
"First of all, I'm also a member of the factory. You accepting bribes will affect the interests of our factory. Secondly, I'm living here now and I'm also a member of the Council. Besides, Brother Zhu is my cousin. Can't I speak when I see him being bullied?”Ye Chen sneered." You bunch of people are obviously bullying our Brother Zhu for being too honest!”
When He Yuzhu heard Ye Chen's words, she felt that it made sense!
She stood up from the stool and said," That's right. I told you that I didn't steal this chicken. Why didn't you believe me?”
"Then explain where this chicken came from!”Xu Damao said straightforwardly.
"If you want to explain, you should explain first. Why should I explain?”He Yuzhu was also putting in more effort. The person he disliked the most in this courtyard was Xu Damao.
"Xu Damao, right? I'll report you to the factory manager tomorrow!”Ye Chen chimed in.
In this era, accepting bribes was a major crime.
It was the same as Silly Zhu's theft of official business!
Don't look at the simple folk customs of this era, as long as one was human, they would have selfish motives.
Hearing Ye Chen's words, Xu Damao, who had a guilty conscience, immediately panicked." You…What right do you have to report me?”
Even if there was no evidence, it was inevitable that people would gossip about it. Then, such a good job in the future would be gone!
A chicken was small, but the oil was big!
Lou Xiao'e tugged at Xu Damao's clothes." Why don't we abandon this chicken…It's not a big deal to lose one chicken."”
" That won't do. This chicken…" Xu Damao almost spilled the beans." Silly Zhu said that his chicken is ours. How about this, we each take a step back…You compensate us with this chicken, and we'll forget about it!"”
"Alright, alright!" Silly Zhu also knew when to stop. It was just a chicken, he could just get another one tomorrow.
"How can that be!" However, Second Uncle refused.
If he let them do this, wouldn't he have made a mistake just now?
His reputation would be destroyed in a single day…
Some people always thought too highly of themselves!
"Since the parties involved have reconciled, let's forget about this matter!”First Uncle was still very prestigious, so he directly made the decision.
Widow Qin's anxious heart finally relaxed when she heard the first uncle's words…At least it didn't implicate her family!
"Disperse, disperse!" Xu Damao also left with the chicken soup.
Ye Chen felt that it was a pity. He thought that there would be chicken soup to drink tonight…
However, this matter was finally resolved.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for resolving the conflict. Mission successful. You have received two old hens.”
Ye Chen was stunned. Had he completed his mission?
Not bad, not bad. It seemed like the old hen had been recovered…
