The daughter of the metaphysical fortune teller: she is the best at eating melons to prolong life

Chapter 202: Being clever but being misled by cleverness

Gong sneered with a gloomy face, "I don't believe it would be such a coincidence that the banknotes would disappear. Since you don't want to compensate, I can only report it to the police."

Mrs. Peng looked hopeless. If she was really arrested and sent to jail, not only would her life be ruined, but even her three children would be implicated. Not to mention her future, she wouldn't even be able to find a decent marriage.

Her children will live their whole lives being laughed at by others.

It was all Yao Peishan's fault. If it wasn't for her bad idea, she wouldn't have been tricked by Xie Lan. She must be held responsible for this.

"Mrs. Gong, please don't report it to the police. I will compensate you with the money."

Peng hurried to the courtyard of the third wife, Yao Peishan.

Just then, I saw the maid Hongyue being pushed out by Yao Peishan's nanny. "Hurry up and leave. Our aunt is going to rest. If you make trouble again, don't blame us for being rude."

The nanny saw Mrs. Peng coming towards them, but instead of greeting her, she turned back to the yard and slammed the door shut.

Hongyue was almost pushed down by the nanny and was angry. When she saw Peng coming, she immediately said angrily, "Madam, Aunt Yao said that stealing the fortune-bringing plaque had nothing to do with her. She will not compensate, and she doesn't have that much money at all."

Peng rushed forward angrily and wanted to go in to argue with Yao, but she found that the door was bolted from the inside by the nanny and could not be opened at all.

In anger, Peng kicked the door, but it made her scream in pain.

Seeing Madam Gong following behind her, waiting for her to pay compensation, Peng had no choice but to order the maids and servants who followed her to break down the door.

Unfortunately, the maids and servants slapped their hands until they were swollen, but the door still did not budge. Peng asked the maids and servants to knock on the door again, but no one came to open the door even after shouting until their throats were hoarse.

Xie Lan, who had come to watch the fun, decided to help Mrs. Peng out of kindness and told Tiechui, "Go and help Second Aunt break the door open."

"Thank you, young lady." Peng was cheated so badly that she could not blame Xie Lan. She had to suppress her anger and thank her.

Yao Peishan didn't expect that Xie Lan would actually ask Tiechui to help Peng break down the door, and her face looked extremely ugly.

"Miss, I didn't offend you, why did you smash my door?"

Xie Lan sneered, "Really? But why did I hear from Second Aunt that you hired someone to steal the sign I carved?"

In her heart, Yao cursed Peng for her inability to accomplish anything, but her face was full of innocence. "I am so wronged. Since I entered the Xie family, I have never even stepped out of the gate of this courtyard. I don't even know what kind of sign the eldest lady has carved, so how could I let a thief steal your sign?"

Before Xie Lan could refute, Mrs. Peng was already so angry that she jumped up and down, "You bitch, it was obviously you who heard that the eldest girl carved a fortune-bringing plaque, and you deliberately hired a thief to steal the plaque, and then asked me to sell it to Madam Gong.

You've hurt me so badly, and now you want to keep yourself out of it? No way.

I tell you, you must be responsible for the compensation paid to Mrs. Gong today. Otherwise, I will never forgive you."

"The Second Madam said that the sign carved by the eldest lady was stolen by someone I had sent to steal it? May I ask if you have any evidence?"

Mrs. Peng was speechless. How could she have any evidence for such a thing?

"Since there is no evidence, you cannot slander me in this matter.

What happens in your second room has nothing to do with our third room.

Madam Second, you better hurry up and find a way to raise money to compensate Madam Gong, or you will be arrested and imprisoned."

There was a glimmer of pride in Yao's eyes. She was not as stupid as Peng. She had been prepared for this and would not let anyone catch her.

Yao thought she was smart, but she didn't know that everything was calculated by Xie Lan.

Just when Mrs. Peng was angry and helpless, Mrs. Yao's sister-in-law, Mrs. Huang, rushed in aggressively.

Arrive before anyone arrives.

"Yao, what on earth are you thinking? You even want to harm your own brother?

Didn't you say that the gift you gave your brother yesterday was a fortune-bringing charm? How come it didn't bring any money, but instead brought him endless bad luck? " When Yao heard what her sister-in-law said, she was so anxious that she winked at her desperately.

"Sister-in-law, I'm busy here. We can talk about any misunderstandings later. You go home first. I'll come to you after I finish dealing with things here."

Huang was very angry, so how could she listen to her?

He threw the sign in his hand fiercely towards Yao.

"Yao, you are such a heartless person, do you know how badly you have harmed your brother?

You sent this sign over yesterday, saying it would bring wealth.

Your brother believed it and offered it to the silk shop.

As a result, he did not make any money, but instead attracted a bunch of rats, which bit all the silk in the shop.

Your brother didn't notice it and sold the damaged silk to a traveling merchant.

The merchant thought that your brother deliberately sold inferior goods as good ones, and in anger he reported the matter to the Dali Temple, and your brother was arrested by the officials.

Yao, this is the trouble you caused, and you must pay compensation to the merchant.

Take some more money and go to the Dali Temple to get your brother out.

Otherwise I will go to the government and sue you for fraud, for using evil-inducing talismans to defraud money."

Yao didn't expect her sister-in-law to be so tactless that she actually smashed the sign in public and even went to the government to sue her.

What made her even more angry was that she tried her best to signal Huang with her eyes, but Huang pretended not to notice. This really made her so angry that she almost vomited blood.

Xie Lan stepped forward, bent down and picked up the sign on the ground.

"Aunt Yao, didn't you say you never stole my brand? Then tell me, what is this?"

"Miss, you misunderstood. I really didn't steal your plaque." Yao said to Huang angrily, "Sister-in-law, are you confused? When did I ever give any fortune-bringing plaque to my brother?

Didn't my eldest brother say yesterday that my niece picked it up on the street? "

"What happened to my eldest brother was just a coincidence. If he had been more careful, he wouldn't have made such a big mistake.

The children are still young and can't leave their mother. Sister-in-law, you go back first.

When my husband comes back, I will ask him to find a way to bring my brother back."

Yao wanted to get over the matter first and get Huang to leave quickly.

Mrs. Peng was afraid that she would not pay the compensation, so she would never let her get her wish.

"Miss, you saw it. It was that bitch from the Yao family who stole your brand."

Yao was so angry at her sister-in-law and that idiot Peng that her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached.

“Girl, this brand was really picked up by my niece on the street.

This is not a good thing. If I really stole it, how could I use it to harm my elder brother?

We are siblings and have always had a good relationship. I would never harm my elder brother. This will not do me any good. "

Yao regretted it so much. She originally thought that she was the smartest person in the Xie family, but she didn't expect that the eldest daughter was the most capable one.

He dug a pit quietly, allowing her and Peng to jump into it without realizing it, and he was even complacent about it.

But as long as she gritted her teeth and refused to admit it, they wouldn't be able to find the thief and they wouldn't be able to do anything to her.
