All things in the world must have the principle of mutual reincarnation and mutual restraint, there must be yin and yang, there is bitterness and sweetness, there is a golden house, and naturally there is also a Pingyang lane. East Street is bustling and lively, and West Street is dilapidated and deserted.

It seems that it has not been affected by the atmosphere of the New Year at all, and the people on West Street are wearing thin coats and hurrying to other places, and they are not in a relaxed mood for the New Year. There is a sense of indifference and numbness on people's faces, compared to the imminent problem of food and clothing, the New Year's Festival seems to be less important, only the simple red paper Spring Festival couplets and hanging old lanterns are pasted at the door of a few households on the street, and there is a vague feeling of the New Year.

A few children sat in front of the fat powder shop and played with the buttons they had just picked up, occasionally raised their dirty faces and looked at Jiang Ruan and the others curiously, and then turned their heads to play with their own things with great interest.

There are small traders selling plum blossoms, there are a few large earthen porcelain vases with missing mouths on the shop, and there are a few red plums that are about to wilt in them, and when they see Jiang Ruan's eyes, they hurriedly shouted: "Beautiful red plums, the girl can ask for a branch, it looks good in the room, and there is incense!" ”

"How did you sell this red plum?" Forsythia asked.

The hawker spread his palms: "It's not expensive, five copper plates." ”

"It's so expensive," Forsythia exclaimed, "No." ”

"Hey, hey," the hawker saw this, and hurriedly said: "Forget it, just give three copper plates, no less, the children at home are still waiting for a hot meal." ”

Forsythia had to press it again, and Jiang Ruan had already spoken: "I want all the rest." ”

Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, and said with some disapproval: "Girl, now the silver is tight..." ”

Jiang Ruan shook his head: "Just do what I say, these flowers are useful to keep." ”

Bai Zhi didn't say anything anymore, poured out more than half of the copper from the intimate cloth bag and handed it to the vendor, the vendor didn't expect to suddenly make this business, on weekdays, there are poor people coming and going on West Street, let alone paying money to buy flowers and grass, but today is an unexpected harvest. simply put the porcelain bottle containing red plum into Forsythia's hand: "It's the New Year, Miss also has a good fortune, even if this porcelain bottle is given." "Just take the stall and leave.

Forsythia held a porcelain vase containing red plums in her hand, and finally couldn't help asking: "What does the girl want these plum blossoms to do, although they are beautiful, you don't need to buy so much, and the flowers will wilt every few days, it is better to eat a few spring cakes." ”

"This flower is not here to see," Jiang Ruan said as he walked forward, "It's for delivery." ”

"Send?" Forsythia looked at her curiously: "Who to send?" ”

Jiang Ruan was silent again. As they walked, they came to the market on West Street.

The market on West Street is the most lively place on West Street, and it is also the most mixed place, with people from 369 and so on, and because of this, it is not surprising that anything happens here, and the most common thing is to be touched by a thief.

As soon as the three of them walked to the entrance of the market, they saw a large circle of people on the third floor and the outer three floors, and they didn't know what they were talking about. Seeing Jiang Ruan stop, Forsythia thought about it, and whispered a few words to Bai Zhi, and the two squeezed through the crowd to squeeze out a path for Jiang Ruan.

As soon as the three of them arrived in the crowd, they saw the scene in the crowd clearly, and saw two people in the middle of the confrontation, one was an old man with white hair, his face was red at the moment, his muscles were bursting out, and he was furious, and the other party was a girl of seven or eight years old, with her head down and tears in her eyes.

Forsythia patted the shoulder of a person next to him, whispered a few words, and then turned to Jiang Ruan and said, "It turned out that this old lady said that the little girl stole his silver, and the little girl said that she didn't steal it, so she cried anxiously." ”

The little girl was surrounded by a crowd of people, her face was extremely pale, but she held a silver ingot tightly in her hand, and her eyes widened, and she was extremely helpless and weak. Look at the angry old man, wearing a brown linen jacket and padded robe, his beard is shaking and shaking, but his voice is very loud, almost yelling at the little girl: "You little girl, you will do this stealing and touching dogs at a young age, so uneducated!" ”

Someone couldn't look at it, so he opened his mouth to stop it: "Why does the old man have to speak so ugly, he is so aggressive to a little girl, and it is difficult to live a long time to bully the small?" Don't be ashamed! ”

"You—" The old man was speechless.

"Besides, how do you prove that she stole your money?" But the man didn't give up: "Only a seven or eight-year-old girl can steal your money, are you too careless or this girl has great powers?" Tsk, maybe you deliberately tried to cheat the little girl out of her money! ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately got the echo of the people around them: "Yes, yes, how can such a little girl have the ability to steal things?" ”

"I don't know how to think about lying beforehand."

"It must be trying to deceive the little girl's money!"

The people around them talked about it, and they all blamed the old man, as if the old man was the culprit, the old man's beard shook and shook, and his face was red as if he could drip blood, but he couldn't say a word, just shook his lips and gasped.

"It's pathetic." Forsythia sighed.

Jiang Ruan glanced at her: "Do you also think that he wants to cheat others out of money?" ”

"Naturally not," Forsythia said: "I deceived others, but I can't deceive the slave maid, when I was in the countryside in the past, this kind of ghost and goblin girl slave and maid have seen a lot, and it is clearly a lie, Bai Zhi, right?" ”

Bai Zhi nodded slightly.

Forsythia said: "Today is also considered the old lady's bad luck, it's really pitiful." ”

A hint of strangeness flashed in Jiang Ruan's eyes.

In fact, as Forsythia said, the little girl's deception is not very clever, and it is not that no one in the crowd can see through her tricks, but West Street, as a place where the poor are concentrated, has a great xenophobia and instinctively rejects outsiders. This old man is nothing more than a stranger to the people here, and strangers should be suppressed, so today, this little girl is a winner. The old man is also destined to be charged with defrauding people.

So, what can she do?

Jiang Ruan paused, and gently pushed aside half of his body to protect Bai Zhi in front of people.

Bai Zhi was startled, and when she saw Jiang Ruan's movements, she hurriedly opened her mouth to stop it: "Girl, it's best for us not to get involved in this matter." ”

What matters is not the truth, but the attitude of the people around you. Even if his own girl came forward to persuade her, she was just being attacked as an outsider who didn't know what to do. The old man is just losing face, but his own girl is a young lady, even if he is now detained in Zhuangzi, his identity is unchangeable.

Jiang Ruan shook his head slightly: "Bai Zhi, get out of the way." ”

Bai Zhi was stunned, Jiang Ruan had already taken a few steps forward, exposed to everyone's field of vision.

She said softly: "The old gentleman doesn't have to be angry, there is right and wrong in the world, even if it is not clear for a while, it will always come to light, why bother to hurt your body for a breath of turbidity, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses." ”
