Xu Damao usually didn't look stupid. Why didn't he realize that he was being used today?
"Bought it? Where's the proof?" Xu Damao still did not believe him. He widened his eyes and was about to search Wu Kui's pockets.
"I say, Xu Damao, did you go to the countryside to be a bandit? Is there anyone who would mess around like you?”Wu Kui's expression turned sour.
He dodged Xu Damao's hand and glared at him.
"What about me? If you bought the chicken, hurry up and take out the certificate!”Xu Damao was shocked by Wu Kui's imposing manner and immediately became weak.
He had calmed down a little.
If Wu Kui could not produce any evidence, then he would be the same as He Yuzhu, both of whom were suspects.
He had to bring this matter to the three masters.
"How boring. I've already thrown my proof on the road. Where can I get you a piece of paper? But this chicken is definitely not yours. Besides, I came back from outside and just found out that you lost your chicken. How could I steal your chicken!”Only then did Wu Kui remember that he had exchanged this chicken with a fish.
There was no proof at all.
The last time he held the All-Pig Banquet, Wu Kui had already made all the meat tickets that he had exchanged for during this period of time.
Now that he thought about it, it was a pity that the Jia family had benefited.
"Then there's nothing I can do. Without proof, I don't believe it! Wu Kui, Silly Zhu, let's make things clear today at the assembly of the entire academy!”Seeing that Wu Kui could not produce any proof, Xu Damao's confidence returned.
On one side was He Yuzhu, who could not explain the origin of the chicken stew in the pot.
On one side was Wu Kui, who could not prove that he was the one who bought the chicken.
The two of them were equally suspicious.
Xu Damao didn't need to think too much. He calculated in his heart that these two people would have to compensate him.
As for the real chicken thief, it was not important.
After Xu Damao said that, he immediately went to Second Uncle and Third Uncle to seek alliance protection.
He didn't expect to be able to persuade the First Uncle.
This old man would definitely give each of them fifty strokes of the cane.
Second Master wanted fame, Third Master wanted profit, so he could still be coaxed.
Lou Xiao'e had always been by Xu Damao's side. Seeing that things were getting bigger and bigger, she could only support her husband unconditionally.
However, when she saw Wu Kui, who was not flustered, she already had a judgment in her heart.
On the other hand, He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu kept closing the door and discussing.
"Look at what your kid has done! Of all people, how could he blame it on Xu Damao?”He Yuzhu asked Qin Huiru angrily.
This was the first time he had acted tough in front of Qin Huairu.
He had to pay a price for his stubbornness.
"It's all because we're short of food at home. Otherwise, he would be so greedy! Aiya, what's the use of saying this at this time! What should we do about this!" Qin Huairu nudged He Yuzhu aggrievedly.
He Yuzhu was immediately pleased.
"My good sister, why are you in such a hurry? Isn't there Wu Kui holding the fort?" He Yuzhu grabbed Qin Huairu's shoulders and whispered into her ear.
"Him? He already said that he could buy it. If he really made a big deal out of it later, he would find the person who sold him the chicken. Wouldn't this matter fall on you?”Qin Huiru trembled reflexively when she heard Wu Kui's name.
She had finally experienced Wu Kui's ruthlessness. Even now, there were still aftereffects.
"What's the big deal? Let's just say that he can't testify! If not, I'll admit it. Don't worry, Xu Damao won't blame you!”He Yuzhu couldn't care less. Right now, there was only Qin Huairu in his eyes.
When he said this, Qin Huairu immediately revealed an expression of understanding.
This time, Silly Pillar finally understood.
She also wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge on Wu Kui.
Thinking of the lingering fear she felt when she faced Wu Kui in the afternoon, Qin Huairu could not help but snuggle into He Yuzhu's arms.
"Silly Zhu, thank you, it's good to have you!”At this moment, she was sincerely grateful for this shield.
He Yuzhu was bewitched by Qin Huiru's sweet words.
Wu Kui felt a little regretful when he saw that all parties were doing their best.
It seemed that he would not be able to have a peaceful meal tonight.
Who was to blame?
Of course, it was that chicken thief.
Under Xu Damao's lead, the entire assembly was held as scheduled.
Wu Kui and He Yuzhu were like prisoners who were placed on a bonfire, receiving the baptism of everyone's gazes.
Unfortunately, Wu Kui and He Yuzhu did not have the same feeling of sympathy.
Wu Kui looked down on He Yuzhu, and He Yuzhu wanted to mess with Wu Kui. The two of them wanted to fight first.
But Xu Damao didn't give them the chance.
"Anyway, you have to compensate me. An old hen cost at least three yuan. Including the food that my family fed, five yuan is not too much.”Xu Damao stood on the high platform and swept his gaze across Wu Kui and He Yuzhu, demanding an exorbitant price.
A chicken cost two yuan at most, and the food he fed was not worth much.
However, after deducting the loss of a chicken, Xu Damao would get a piece for himself, Second Uncle would get a piece, and Third Uncle would get a piece. This was what they had agreed on.
Xu Damao was still certain that He Yuzhu and Wu Kui were people who could afford it.
He felt that what he wanted was quite practical.
"This is too much, Xu Damao! I didn't steal the chicken. I won't pay for it!”Before Wu Kui could respond, He Yuzhu jumped higher than anyone else.
His salary had been given to Qin Huairu's family. Asking him for five yuan was simply asking for his life.
"Xu Damao, stop daydreaming. I'm not a chicken thief, nor am I a fool.”Wu Kui looked at Xu Damao coldly, then glanced at He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu.
At this time, these two people still did not forget to exchange glances.
Did he really think that everyone in the courtyard was blind?
"Xu Damao. Kui Zi would never steal your chicken. I can guarantee it in the name of a master.”When the old man, who had always been neither quick nor slow, saw that Wu Kui was also suspected, he immediately patted his chest and defended Wu Kui.
"First Master, this matter can't be explained by you patting your chest. Xu Damao lost a chicken. We've been together for decades and there has never been a thief. This is not a small matter!”Second Uncle had never been satisfied with First Uncle being above him. At this time, he was even more concerned about the one yuan promised by Xu Damao. He tried his best to pull the nature of the whole incident to an extraordinary height.
"Yes, yes. Our hospital's reputation can't be so bad!”Third Uncle spoke for the first time because of that one yuan, echoing Second Uncle.
Wu Kui heard the words of the two stewards and felt a chill in his heart.
These two had dealt with so many family matters over the years. Could it be that they had gotten a lot of money?
Wu Kui had ignored these two. Now, he had to re-examine Xu Damao, who had pulled them into the same boat.
From the very beginning, this guy had never thought of catching the chicken thief. Instead, he was aiming for compensation.
"So you want to catch a thief? Alright, alright, I know who the thief is. Xu Damao, how much did you pay to listen?”Wu Kui laughed and stood up, attracting everyone's attention.
