A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 143
"You can't say that. If the shopkeeper is really willing to pay 100 taels of silver, it doesn't hurt to ask him to search for it. As the little girl said, 100 taels of silver is not a lot. It can be easily earned, so why not do it? "

At this time, another lady wearing a royal blue shirt came out and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, if you want to search, let me and the little girl search together!"

"This..." Judging by what they said, it seems that they really didn't take it. If they can't find it, 200 taels is nothing.
The shopkeeper immediately hesitated.

"Madam, your fingers are so beautiful, can you show me?" At this moment, Xin Changning suddenly rushed over and grabbed the hand of the lady in blue.

The man immediately withdrew his hand and said angrily: "Little girl, how can you drag people casually?"

"Shopkeeper, you don't need to check, she is the one who took the earrings, and it must not be on her now, but still in this shop." At this moment, Xin Changning suddenly said something earth-shattering.

"What?" Everyone froze for a moment.

"You talk nonsense, stop slandering people, I'll strangle you to death." The woman in blue immediately showed a flustered look, and raised her hand to hit Xin Changning, but Xiao Ling pushed her away.

At the same time, the waiter Hedian who was the shopkeeper also asked in surprise, "Little girl, how can you be sure?"

Xiao Ling is extremely powerful, although she only pretended to be an ordinary girl to push forcefully in order to hide her power, but she also pushed the woman in blue and fell to the ground.

Looking at the woman in blue, Xin Changning took the opportunity to take two steps back, walked up to the shopkeeper and said, "This is very simple! First, isn't it strange that she doesn't have a maid by her side? Second, If she is really a wife, how can she agree to be searched for a mere 100 taels of silver? This kind of insult is not acceptable to ordinary people. Third, she has thick calluses on her fingers. She knows which wife would do things herself. It's just pretending. Since you're pretending, you must have bad intentions."

"You're talking nonsense, my girl went out to buy things, can't you just come over later, I just saw you being wronged alone, I wanted to help you with good intentions, but was framed instead, it's really hard to be a good person, good intentions are always treated like a donkey's liver and lungs? "

Hearing Xin Changning's sound analysis, the woman in blue immediately yelled, and yelled: "Shopkeeper, don't listen to her nonsense, she is just slandering, oh no, she obviously stole it, and she wants to put the blame on me? You said that the earring is not on me, since it is not there, how can you say that I stole it."

"That's right, girl, since it's not on her, why say she stole it." Not to mention the shopkeeper couldn't believe it, even the onlookers were very curious.

"As long as you find the things, you will know that she stole them."

Xin Changning smiled slightly, and said directly to the waiter: "Search all the places where this lady stood just now, pay attention, especially search all kinds of hidden corners and crevices, to see if there is any dough."

? ? ? ? ?

The waiter in the shop was confused, but in order to find the earring quickly, he obeyed the order to search.

As soon as she heard the dough, the woman in blue changed her face instantly, and immediately started rubbing her hands.

"Hold her, don't let her rub the evidence off her hands." Seeing this, Xin Changning immediately yelled, the shopkeeper was startled, and subconsciously ordered someone to grab the woman's hands.

Soon, in an inconspicuous gap in the corner of the counter, two small pieces of dough stuck inside were found out, and when they were pinched open, they found that the lost pair of gold inlaid earrings were wrapped inside.

At this time, Xin Changning raised his hand again, and showed everyone: "Look, everyone, I don't have any flour on my hands. Look at her."

After finishing speaking, she ordered someone to hold up the hand of the woman in blue for everyone to see, only to see that the three nails on her right hand were covered with dry paste.

"And here?" Xin Changning said and ordered someone to find a wrapped veil from the sleeve of the woman in blue. When he opened it, he found a sticky mass of raw gluten inside.

This raw gluten is what is left after the flour has been washed to remove the starch. It is very sticky and easily sticks to things. Xin Changning used to paste it on the top of a bamboo pole when he was a child in his previous life and went to the woods to stick it to cicadas.I didn't expect that in the hands of thieves, it can also be used to stick jewelry.Can't help but said: "I admire, this idea is really ingenious, I'm afraid that after you hide the things, there will be some accomplices coming to pick them up?"

"Hehe, the little girl is so smart. It's unlucky for my aunt to be in your hands today. It's just that there are people who belong to my aunt in this area of ​​the capital. You've spoiled my aunt's good deed. You have to be careful when you go out."

Seeing that the evidence was conclusive, the female thief in blue had nowhere to go, so she turned around and started threatening Xin Changning.

"Hurry up and send this female thief to the yamen! How dare you threaten the distinguished guests in public, I'm really impatient."

Seeing that the thief was indeed found out and the things were found, the shopkeeper heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately turned his attitude towards Xin Changning 180 degrees, and said repeatedly: "Young lady is frightened, I will apologize to you, young one, and I will forgive you for your sins." .”

"No, your habit of watching people order dishes is not cultivated in a day or two. I am so poor that I dare not be your distinguished guest! Little Bell, let's go." Xin Changning felt the same way when he was treated as a thief for no reason. Very angry, immediately turned his face and wanted to leave.

"Girl, please stay!" At this moment, someone shouted from upstairs in the jewelry store.

Xin Changning looked up and saw that the person calling was a strange young man in brocade clothes. He couldn't help but feel a little strange, so he asked, "Did you call me? Is there something wrong?"

"Girl, my surname is Su, and I'm the young owner of this shop." Mr. Su has a gentle manner and clear eyebrows. Although his appearance is not very outstanding, there is a bookish air in his gestures and gestures, which can be regarded as elegant and handsome.

After introducing himself, he smiled at Xin Changning, walked down the stairs slowly, took the gold inlaid treasure earrings that had just been wiped clean from the second-hand shop, and brought them directly to Xin Changning, saying: "The servant is ignorant and almost ruined the earrings." If you damage the girl's reputation, you should compensate the girl, and give this little earring to the girl to shock her!"

"Young master, are these earrings worth more than a dozen taels of silver?" Seeing this, the waiter in the shop couldn't help but asked in surprise.

Suspecting a young girl as a thief for no reason, and offending another wife in public, if this girl wasn't so smart today that she was searched, who would dare to buy jewelry in the shop in the future?

Besides, the girl helped find the thief, shouldn't she be thanked?If not, the thief will come again in the future, and he doesn't know how many things he will throw away.

Mr. Su had already planned in his heart, and immediately glared at the waiter when he heard this.

So generous, the price is more than a dozen taels of silver, if you don't take it for nothing, you won't take it!

Seeing this, Xin Changning was not polite, and took the earring with his hand, saying, "Okay, then I'll take it."
