Chapter 167: Mutual Suspicion
She could see the form just now, and those villagers wished that she would be beaten.
also sent a message to Yao Cuihua and his wife, telling them that her elderly mother was here.
Coupled with the words of the second mother, those villagers are afraid that not only will they not help her testify, but will also pour sewage on her head.
At that time, she didn't get half of her justice back, but became a laughing stock, and the gains outweighed the losses, so she could only endure this breath.
Although Grandma Bai Jie was unwilling in every way, she could only give up and said, "I have a few eggs here that I asked for your brother and daughter-in-law, and I will give you two poached eggs to eat." ”
White Lotus pretended to be moved and said obediently: "Mom, I don't eat it, you keep it for yourself." "But in my heart, I wanted her to make poached eggs and eat them.
Grandma Bai Jie didn't say anything and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
Bai Jie was sullen, the injuries on her body were worse than those of the White Lotus, but the old thing didn't say anything and made her a bowl of poached eggs to make up for it.
She pretended to be obedient to her grandmother and said, "Grandma, I'll help you light the fire." ”
Grandma was furious: "Why do you want to help me light the fire!" You don't eat breakfast? Waiting for me, an old man, to serve you all day long! ”
Bai Jie pretended to be atmospheric and didn't dare to come out, but in fact, she scolded her grandmother frantically in her heart.
The two grandparents entered the kitchen, and as soon as they boiled the water in the pot and were about to beat the poached eggs in it, they heard the screams of the white lotus as if they had been stabbed countless times in the room.
The two grandparents and grandchildren looked at each other seriously, didn't care about anything, and hurriedly ran to the room, seeing the white lotus crying and mourning as if she had slept in vain and didn't give money.
Bai Jie asked in surprise, "Mom, what's wrong with you?" ”
The White Lotus howled: "All the money I put under my pillow before going to bed last night is gone!" ”
Bai Jie's face turned pale, she knew that the money was all the net worth of the White Lotus.
Her suspicious eyes immediately fell on her grandmother.
Grandma's old face suddenly turned cold: "Why are you looking at me with such eyes?" Do you suspect that I took your mother's money? I didn't take it! ”
Bai Jie smiled against her will: "I don't suspect that my grandmother took my mother's money."
Isn't my mother's money my grandmother's, and my grandmother doesn't have to take it.
I think my grandmother is old and sleepy, and someone comes in to steal money, and my grandmother doesn't hear any movement. ”
Grandma Bai Jie recalled carefully, and shook her head hesitantly: "How dare I pack a ticket for this?" Even if you don't sleep much, there are still times when you sleep very dead. ”
She looked at the White Lotus: "Did you remember where you put that money wrong?" ”
White Lotus shook her head affirmatively: "It's impossible to remember!" My mom and I counted the money together last night, and my mom watched me put it under my pillow. ”
Grandma Bai Jie wondered, "What about the money?" You can't run away on your own. ”
Bai Jie suggested: "Mom, let's look elsewhere, what if we really remember it wrong?" ”
So the three grandparents dug into the ground and searched the whole house several times, but found nothing.
In the process of searching, the three grandparents found that the dim sum left by the white lotus yesterday for Bai Jie was placed in a cardboard box because there was no cabinet to put it, and it was a mess of rat bites.
The three of them sat on the bed dejectedly.
Bai Jie looked at the snacks that had been bitten by rats and guessed, "Shouldn't those rats drag the money away from the nest?" ”
When White Lotus heard this, she had a glimmer of hope and wanted to find the rat hole at home.
Bai Jie's grandmother poured a basin of cold water on her head: "How is it possible! Rats aren't stupid!
Put the straw everywhere and don't use it to cushion the nest, and use money to cushion the nest?
Otherwise, the cushion of the socks and handkerchiefs is more comfortable than the cushion of money! ”
The White Lotus immediately sat back on the bed in frustration.
Bai Jie asked, "Then grandma said that the money is gone?" ”
Grandma looked at her inquiringly several times, and said in a weird manner: "Who knows? Our doors and windows are all good, who has such a great ability to enter the house without damaging the doors and windows! ”
White Lotus glanced at her own mother and daughter.
There was no damage to the doors and windows, and eighty percent of the thieves stole the money, but who was the thief?
Grandma Bai Jie was still thinking last night that White Lotus had money in her hands, so she asked her to buy a pig's trotter and come back to simmer soup today.
One is to satisfy hunger, and the other is to anger the two daughters-in-law.
You've kicked me out, and I'm better off than I was in your house! By the way, she also blocked the villagers who laughed at her.
Now that the White Lotus's money is gone, all this has come to naught, and he still has to keep two mouths.
Thinking of this, she was congested and made breakfast with a broken face.
In addition to beating two poached eggs for the White Lotus, Grandma Bai Jie also cooked a small pot of porridge and fried two green vegetables for breakfast for the three of them.
White Lotus looked at the only two poached eggs in the bowl, and scolded silently in her heart, this old thing is really stingy enough, and he only beat two poached eggs!
Bai Jie peeked at the White Lotus from time to time, and saw that she had eaten all the two poached eggs, but she didn't say anything about giving her a wounded daughter, thinking that her own mother was really selfish enough.
After eating a simple breakfast, Bai Jie's grandmother asked Bai Jie to take the clothes that the three of them had changed last night to the pond to wash.
When Bai Jie left, her grandmother said solemnly: "Lotus, I think eighty percent of your money was taken by Xiao Jie!" ”
White Lotus asked quietly, "Why are you so sure?" ”
Bai Jie's grandmother disliked her stupidity: "You think, it can't be a thief, then it's only a thief, and I can't steal your money, who else would it be if it wasn't Xiaojie?" ”
White Lotus really wants to ask, why can't you steal it? You stared at the money last night with eyes as bright as light bulbs!
She sighed lightly: "There is no evidence, why did you wronged Xiaojie!" Won't my money be hers in the future, will she steal it! ”
Seeing that the white lotus didn't quite believe what she said, Bai Jie's grandmother turned black: "You just protect your daughter, that's a white-eyed wolf!"
She won the lottery and won so many prizes, but she hid it from us, what else could she not do!
I'm just giving you a reminder, believe it or not, don't be sold by your own daughter, you're still stupidly helping her count the money! ”
White Lotus didn't say anything when she heard it, and her own mother didn't say anything, and started to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
In the morning, she only ate vegetables and porridge, and Grandma Bai Jie felt that there was no oil and water in her stomach, so she found a reason to go out and go to the town to buy herself something delicious.
The summer clothes are easy to wash, Bai Jie quickly washed the clothes and came back and hung them at the door.
The White Lotus had already dressed up and was wearing a new dress.
In the past, in the village, like Bai Jie, she wore patched clothes to pretend to be pitiful and sympathetic.
But now, anyway, she has been spurned by the whole village, and no one will fall for her anymore, so what kind of cabbage is there, and the ground is yellow?
How to dress up the commotion, so that those women who chew the root of the tongue are envious, jealous and hateful!
