First Uncle had been through a lot before, so he understood everything when he saw Qin Huairu like this. Ignoring Qin Huairu's rejection, he stood up and led everyone forward.
"Since everyone has gathered together today, let's go and take a look together to clarify the matter.”
Qin Huairu was sweating profusely from nervousness. She brought He Yuzhu and the others to the door of the house.
Jia Zhangshi looked at the three old men at the door and was a little confused.
"Ah, isn't it the New Year? Why are the three of you here at my house?”
First Uncle did not have the time to argue with this old lady. He said directly,
"Call your three children out and ask them something.”
Jia Zhang-shi thought for a moment and asked carefully,"
"Did one of my children cause trouble? No, my children are all obedient and won't make mistakes.”
First Uncle didn't care what the old woman was thinking. He waved his hand and said,
"Just call the child out. You don't have to worry about the rest.”
Jia Zhang-shi looked at the unyielding First Uncle and knew that she could not provoke him, so she reluctantly went to call for help.
A moment later, a little girl with pigtails walked out with a little doll in old clothes. Behind her was a little boy who was walking slowly.
These three children were Little Dang, Little Huai Hua, and Jia Geng.
"That's awesome. Did you know that your Uncle Xu's chicken was lost?”
Hearing that it was about the chicken, Jia Geng was a little nervous. He calmed himself down and said lightly,
"I haven't heard of it."
First Uncle had seen too many people. He knew that the child was lying just by looking at him. He said softly,
"You really don't know? Tell me the truth, did you take the chicken?”
Jia Geng didn't dare to admit it. He shook his head and said,
"No!"
First Uncle looked at Jia Geng, then at Little Dang and sighed.
"Little Dang, you're the best, you know that?”
Little Dang looked at Qin Huiru and whispered,"
"I don't know!"
Seeing that the two children were not telling the truth, the first uncle could only turn his head to ask the little doll beside him.
"Cute little locust flower, do you know?”
When the small locust tree saw that the first grandpa asked it, it quickly replied,
"I know, I know. Beggar's chicken is delicious!”
Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi gasped when they heard this.
The first uncle sighed, but Lou Xiao'e became angry.
"How did you teach your child! They only know how to steal. A family of thieves!”
Although Qin Huiru was very angry that her child had stolen a chicken, she still replied angrily when she heard others scolding her child,"
"Watch your mouth!"
Lou Xiao'e thought that she was right and said snappily,
"If you don't learn well at such a young age, you won't be a good person when you grow up!”
When Jia Geng saw someone talking about his mother, he quickly said,
"Nonsense, I stole something. It came to me by itself.”
When Lou Xiao'e heard this, she was furious. She raised her voice and said,
"Do you take us for fools?"
Qin Huairu was afraid that Lou Xiao'e would hit her child, so she hurriedly said,"
"It's just a chicken. I'll compensate you. Do you have to say that about a child?”
Lou Xiao'e immediately perked up when she heard that she was going to pay for her chicken.
"Compensate? How are you going to compensate? I'm an old hen that laid eggs. It's very precious.”
However, Qin Huairu did not mind and said softly,"
"No matter how expensive it is, it's still a hen. It's only one yuan each. I can afford it!”
When Second Uncle saw that he had finally caught the person, he quickly jumped out and said,
"How can stealing be the same as buying? You must be severely punished!”
Third Uncle thought about it and nodded.
"I also agree to the heavy punishment."
First Uncle nodded when he saw that the two of them agreed.
"Huairu, your son stole the chicken.”
Second Uncle said proudly when he saw that everyone agreed with him.
Qin Huairu immediately became anxious when she heard that it was five yuan.
"Five? Too many!"
When Lou Xiao'e heard that Qin Huairu thought it was too much, she immediately stomped her feet and said,"
"You still think it's too much? I thought it was too little! That's a hen that laid eggs. If I raise it for a few more months, the eggs it laid would not be worth five yuan.”
Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, Xu Damao quickly went forward.
"Since Second Uncle has spoken, then five yuan it is.”
Lou Xiao'e was a little unconvinced, but seeing that her man had said so, she could only agree.
He Yuzhu looked at their ferocious faces and smiled.
After paying five yuan, Qin Huiru's face turned pale.
That was five yuan. She only got 27.5 yuan a month. He had three sons and an old granny to support. Now, it was really adding insult to injury!
She looked at He Yuzhu and felt that there was something wrong with this man.
This man had clearly listened to her before, but he suddenly changed his attitude. Could it be that she had unintentionally done something wrong and was discovered by this man?
