076 Lost bracelets
Because of the seizure of the Baekje Pharmacy, Tong Ningzhi ended his career as a buddy and returned to his home in Gujing Village.
Tong Dequan, the head of the Tong family, was sensible, and he didn't say anything, so he asked Tong Ningzhi to stay at home first to help with farm work. After a while, he wants to continue to go out to find a livelihood, or whether he wants to stay at home, depending on his own choice.
However, although Tong Ningzhi never said much, he has been sullen. Ugly persuaded many times, but the effect was not great. She knew that Tong Ningzhi was at such a young age at the beginning of her career, and it was not easy to cheer up again.
"You went to see Fourth Brother Tong yesterday?" Walking on the country road, Ah Chou and Ding Juwen, who went up the mountain to chop wood, met and happened to talk about this topic.
Ding Juwen nodded: "Well, it was Xiao Wu who asked me to go and see him." ”
"Yesterday, the conviction of the Yamen came out, probably because Fifth Brother Tong was worried that he wouldn't be able to think about it." Ugly sighed softly.
"I heard that the two men who kept the medicinal herbs, as well as the shopkeeper, were sentenced to prison for dereliction of duty. Fortunately, Governor Qiao said that there was no motive and no evidence that they took the initiative to harm others, so they were sentenced to a few years. Ding Juwen only learned what happened that day after listening to Tong Ningxin. Tong Ning is confident and simple-minded, and he has always trusted Ding Juwen, so he didn't shy away from anything, and told the truth.
Ah Chou thought with his knees, Tong Ningxin, the big mouth, would tell Ding Juwen the details. Fortunately, Ding Juwen is not a bad person, nor is he a person who loves to chew the root of his tongue.
Fourth Brother Tong was actually very sad in his heart, they were all people who got along with each other on weekdays, they were innocently convicted, and he had nothing else to do but watch. Hey, I knew that I shouldn't have let him know so much about the Tao in the first place, otherwise I wouldn't have lost confidence in the world. Down. Ugly was full of emotion.
Ding Juwen saw that she was worried, and couldn't help but persuade with some worry: "It's not your fault. If you don't let him know what happened. First, he complained that you didn't save people and save them to the end; Second, did you keep him in the dark? It hurts to know it. But if you don't know the way, how can you have experience and growth? ”
Ugly smiled helplessly under the veil: "You can see it through." "Growth is always accompanied by labor pains, how can you really be successful in the honey pot?
"It's not worth it in my humble opinion," Ding Juwen showed a clear smile, "Don't blame yourself, you have done your best in this matter." To be honest, listen to Xiao Wu describe the wonderful scene of the confrontation between you and Prefect Qiao - Ugly, I admire your courage! "She's always the bravest one. The last time he refuted the storyteller, this time he confronted the prefect of Qiao. Although it is wonderful and thrilling, he will always sweat for her.
Ah Chou knew that this behavior was too domineering, not cautious enough, and there was nothing to be proud of. What's more, she didn't manage to clean up innocent people, and there was nothing to be complacent: "Courage, what's the use!" I'm already taking a risk, and I've borrowed the name of the Mo family. It's not worth mentioning that it didn't turn the tables in one fell swoop! ”
Ding Juwen changed the firewood knife from his left hand to his right hand, and his tone was pitying: "You should do less in the future for such risky behavior." After all, a girl's family is worrying. At first, he thought that Ah Ugly was a down-and-out girl, but now it seems. Her words and deeds are a bit chivalrous, which is really unpredictable. But in this unpredictability. Constantly draw him in, make him care, worry, and move......
"I see. I also hope that there will be no such opportunities for me to take risks in the future, "both times I had no choice after thinking about it, and it was impossible to sit idly by and watch, so I made a helpless choice." Feeling that Ding Juwen's tone was awkward, Ah Chou hurriedly changed the topic, "Now that the matter has passed, I am only worried about Fourth Brother Tong." ”
Ding Juwen pulled himself back from a slight distraction: "In the end, he is younger, although he is more shrewd and sensible than Xiao Wu, he has not experienced any major events in the end." If I hadn't listened to my classmates talk about the government, business, and the situation on weekdays, I was afraid that if I had been replaced, it would be worse than he is now! Don't worry, people always have a process from ignorance to transparency, let him be quiet, let's give some enlightenment, and it will be fine in a few days. ”
"Hmm." Ugly nodded slowly.
As they were talking, the two saw Zhao San's sister-in-law not far away, burying her head all the way, looking in the grass and fields as she walked.
Ah Chou blinked his clear eyes under the veil: "It's Zhao San's sister-in-law, it seems that she has lost something and is looking for something?" ”
Ding Juwen was also a little puzzled: "It seems to be the case, why don't we go and ask and see if we can help?" ”
"Okay," Ah Chou agreed and walked over quickly, "Third sister-in-law Zhao, what are you looking for?" ”
Zhao San's sister-in-law looked up and saw Ah Ugly, and stomped her foot: "It's Ah Ugly, and there is an article?" I'm embarrassed to tell you, just a pair of silver bracelets you gave a few days ago, and I still take them with me when I go out today, but when I go home from the ground, the one on my right hand is gone! There was a little guilt in her anxious look, after all, it was a birthday gift from Ugly, and she lost one, so she didn't want to go!
Ah Chou patted her hand and comforted her with a smile: "What a big deal, why are you embarrassed!" Xu didn't fall into the ground when he was working in the field, and I will accompany you to find it. ”
Seeing this, Ding Juwen also stood up and said with a smile: "Third sister-in-law Zhao, I will also help you find it, there are many people to find it quickly." ”
"Come on, you have to come together, and when your mother sees it, she will say that we are not, I think you should still do it!" Ugly looked disgusted.
Zhao San's sister-in-law covered her lips and smiled, and her anxiety seemed to be blown away by this teasing.
Ding Juwen's handsome face flushed slightly, and he said embarrassedly: "My mother, she was too much before, I apologize to you on her behalf, ugly, don't hold a grudge." This time, it won't. He never thought that Ah Ugly still remembered the last time she released the paper kite, how could she hold a grudge like this......
"Gotta got," Ah Chou hurriedly stopped Ding Juwen, who apologized, "I'm not holding a grudge, I'm called eating a trench and growing wise, who wants to fall twice in the same pit!" She muttered, as if she didn't care, but in fact she gritted her teeth in her heart: Don't you hold grudges?
Zhao San's sister-in-law joked on the side: "I see that you were bitten by a snake once, and you were afraid of the well rope for ten years, and you were scared!" ”
Ah Chou didn't pay attention to it, just waved his hand: "Oh, you have to come along, don't say that I picked it up, when the time comes, something will really happen, and you will take the charge down!" As he spoke, he went to help Zhao San's sister-in-law find the bracelet without mentioning it.
Ding Juwen shook his head helplessly: he just wanted to help Ah Ugly, but now although he was counted down by her for a while, there was no reason to escape, otherwise wouldn't he be considered to be afraid of carrying the crime and ran away? Doesn't that seem to be too snakey?
Therefore, Ding Juwen, who refused to leave a bad impression on Ah Chou, also joined the ranks of looking for bracelets.
The bracelet was personally selected and given by Ah Chou, and Ah Chou naturally knew what Lu Dao looked like, so he immediately began to look for it. Ding Juwen has never seen what this silver bracelet looks like, but fortunately, it is a pair, and the one in Zhao San's left hand is still there. Zhao San's sister-in-law immediately showed it to Ding Juwen and told him to look for it in this way.
started looking for it from the Zhao family, and until I found the field of the Zhao family, the silver bracelet was stunned and there was no trace of it.
Ah Chou sat on the edge of the ridge with one hand on his cheek: "It's really strange, we didn't miss anything, it stands to reason that a carpet search can always be found, why is it gone?" ”
Ding Juwen asked: "Third sister-in-law Zhao, are you sure that when you went out this morning, the bracelet was still on your hand?" ”
"Sure," Zhao San's sister-in-law nodded affirmatively, "Not long after I went out this morning, I met Aunt Tong, she saw the pair of bracelets on my hand, and praised them for their good looks, and asked why they were willing to bring them to the ground." I also said that when Ah Ugly sent it, he said that this silver bracelet is not afraid of ordinary work. ”
"In that case, someone must have picked it up." Ding Juwen said his speculation.
"It's okay to drop it in the village, since it's all from the same village, just ask who picked it up and came back." Ugly proposed.
Zhao San's sister-in-law waved her hand: "Ugly, you girl thinks it's simple." If someone else picks it up, then take it home and hide it, will it still make you know? ”
Ah Chou frowned: "You can't hide it for a lifetime, you always have to take it out to sell or take it out, then it's a goof?" The bracelet I sent, although the style is not special, but the inner ring is engraved. You see—"
She said and took off the bracelet in Zhao San's left hand, and let the two of them take a closer look in the sun. I saw that in the very inconspicuous place of the inner circle, a "Zhao" and a "Tao" were engraved, and Tao was Zhao San's sister-in-law's own surname.
"I had the inner ring of this bracelet engraved. No matter if the person who picks it up takes it out and takes it out, or takes it out to sell, it can't erase the fact that it is stolen goods in his hand. Ugly said confidently. At first, she just felt that she had seen so many "ancient family property dispute cases" (in fact, they were part of the house fight) in the past, and the silver bracelet was not something that could be taken casually in ordinary people's homes, so she carved words to protect Zhao Sansao's private property rights, but she didn't expect it to come in handy now.
Ding Juwen was surprised: "Ugly, I didn't expect you to keep a hand in this place!" ”
"You're really a good fishnet, and you have a lot of eyes!" Zhao San's sister-in-law didn't expect that Ah Chou would have this trick, half praise and half helpless.
"There were a lot of people that day, so I wasn't embarrassed to say it, I thought I'd tell you later, but then there were a lot of things, so I forgot about it......" Ah Chou secretly stuck out his tongue, a little surprised.
"Since there is this evidence, I'm not afraid that someone will pick it up and hide it, why don't you tell Tong Lizheng and let him talk to the families in the village?" Ding Juwen proposed.
Ah Chou nodded: "Well, but about the inner lettering, you can't say too clearly, otherwise someone who knows how to shovel out the word, it will be very bad!" ”
The three of them discussed, and then went to report to Tong Dequan.
Tong Dequan listened to the reason for the incident and agreed with their ideas. It is only said to be a one-to-one bracelet, and the other is still in Zhao San's sister-in-law's hand, and the style of the bracelet is custom-made. The uniqueness of the custom-made naturally cuts off the idea of hiding and tucking.
After listening to Tong Dequan's announcement, Aunt Zhou touched the bracelet in her arms and sneered secretly: The poor ghost of the Zhao family can afford to buy a custom-made bracelet, who believes it! This silver bracelet may have been stolen and robbed! She's not fooled! (To be continued......)
