Everyone was gossiping, and Tang Mian only heard about the loss of his mother's silver bracelet.

Although the silver bracelet was worthless, it was the only relic left to her by her grandmother.

She remembers very well that even if her family is so poor that she can't open the pot, she is reluctant to sell it when her mother is terminally ill.

The silver bracelet was her only thought, which one had stolen it.

"Woo...... I was so careless, why did I lose the silver bracelet, the bracelet was handed down to me by my great-grandmother, and I planned to wait for the day of Mian's marriage to pass it to her, why did I lose it......" Before entering the house, Tang Mian heard Bai Yunniang keep complaining about herself, beating her feet and not saying anything, and she also had tears and snot, looking so pitiful.

"Mother, don't cry, I'll get the bracelet back for you." Later, when Bai Yunniang's mood stabilized, Tang Mian personally counted the missing items at home.

In addition to her mother's silver bracelet, there were also more than ten taels of silver that she locked in the cabinet and lost.

Fortunately, the bowl was left alone in the hole dug under the bed, otherwise it would have been troublesome.

According to her speculation, the other party's purpose was money, and the silver bracelet was not worth a few pennies at all, and he was likely to sell it at a pawnshop or jewelry store.

So he entrusted Tian Bo and them to help inquire about the news, but unfortunately they found nothing.

Just when everyone thought that the silver bracelet would not be found, things took a major turn.

On this day, Tang Mian sent more than a dozen eggs to Aunt Chen to make up for her body according to her mother's instructions.

"Cotton, you are really a good girl, but it's a pity that my son doesn't have this blessing and can't marry a girl like you......" Aunt Chen has recently gone home to recuperate, fortunately, Peach Blossom Village is very close to their village, she said a few words to Aunt Chen, thinking that there are still some things in the store, and when she was about to leave, Aunt Chen stopped her, went into the kitchen and took out a small half bag of polished rice for her as a gift.

Tang Mian knew the situation of their family, where did he dare to accept it, and when he was about to refuse, Aunt Chen didn't follow it, and insisted on giving it to her.

She had no choice but to take it to the store.

"The owner, Aunt Chen is really willing to give it to you, this is high-grade polished rice, such a small half bag costs half a tael of silver, their family is willing to buy such expensive rice, why can't they pay the medical bills?" Lotus used to be the maid of a large family, responsible for procurement, so she could tell the quality of rice at a glance.

This kind of polished rice is produced in the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, and rice is abundant in the local area, and it is expensive to look at the white and round rice.

If the Chen family was really so poor, that half a tael of silver could buy a hundred catties of brown rice, which was enough for them to eat for several months.

"Master, in my opinion, Chen Sheng just doesn't want to pay back your money, otherwise how could he buy such expensive rice, or I will find someone to check him?" Tian Bo saw that Tang Mian's face was different, and he opened his mouth to propose.

"Hmm......" Tang Mian nodded, it is true that Chen Sheng said before that he couldn't even take out a penny at home, but now he can take out such a good rice to give her, which is very strange.

However, in three days, Tian Bo didn't know how to use to completely wipe out all the details of Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng, a native of Peach Blossom Village, is famous in the village for being lazy and bad-tempered, idle and idle, and often goes in and out of the gambling house Hualou, beats the elderly mother, bullies the demented brother, is nearly 23 years old, because the family is poor and short-tempered, no woman is willing to marry him.

A few days ago, he didn't know where to get some money, so he bought 20 catties of high-quality polished rice from Jiangnan from the rice store.

"Master, that's all for now! It seems that Chen Sheng is not as honest as he seems, he is not a person who keeps to himself. Tian Bo finished his report and added.

Tang Mian frowned, remembering what happened at home recently.

On the day she lost something at home, Chen Sheng was called out by relatives to help, and the theft of the house happened an hour before she returned, but Chen Sheng had already returned to the hospital by that time......

However, this does not rule out that he did not do it.

The people in the village didn't know that she was the boss of Koukouxiang, and they didn't know that she had a bowl that could only produce gold.

She only showed her wealth in front of Du Yunze, the Du family ranked first among the four major families, although he was only a young master of a branch family, he was much richer than her, he would not call someone to steal things.

After thinking about it, Chen Sheng's motive for committing the crime was greater.

After Tang Mian forced himself to calm down, he asked Tian Bo to continue to ask people to stare at him.

With his profligate nature, if the silver bracelet of Ruoniang was really his hand, he would definitely go out again.

Early in the morning, she arrived at the store, and Tian Bo called her to the study to talk.

As soon as he entered the house, he carefully took out the bracelet wrapped in a handkerchief from his bosom.

Tang Mian saw the lines on it clearly, hurriedly grabbed his hand and took a look, and just after seeing the word 'white' engraved on the inside, he was excited!

"It's really my mother's silver bracelet, where did you find it, Tian Bo?"

It's really the owner's mother's thing, Tian Bo is also angry, Chen Sheng, who is evil, he is the shameless thief who set up a game to steal.

Seeing that the owner was so angry, Tian Bo didn't care about anything, so he told him the cause and effect.

Shortly after Tang Mian left yesterday, their people saw Chen Sheng mortgaging the silver bracelet in the gambling house, so they bought it from the people in the gambling house.

"What a Chen Sheng! Stinky and shameless, I helped him pay back a hundred taels of silver in vain, and settled the medical bills for his mother, but he did this to me! "Tang Mian is so angry that he can't do it.

"Boss, let's report to the official!" Tian Bo proposed.

Tang Mian thought of Aunt Chen's illness and Chen Sheng's stupid big brother, and shook his head, if he was really sent to prison, Li Zheng in Peach Blossom Village would take back the two acres of land allocated to their family.

The rules in each village are similar, fools, no households, as long as there is no male in the family, the allocated fields must be redistributed after being reclaimed by the village lizheng.

Aunt Chen, their mother and son depend on the crops in the field to survive, if Chen Sheng commits a crime, what will Aunt Chen rely on in the future!

"Hey! Boss, I know you're a well-meaning person, but you can't tolerate some people and things, otherwise things will only develop in a more uncontrollable direction......"

No matter how Tian Bo persuaded him, Tang Mian did not change his original intention, and still decided to let Chen Sheng go.

In the next few days, whenever I saw him, I would find all kinds of excuses to avoid him.

After one or two times, Chen Sheng also sensed that something was wrong.

I was also discouraged.

Recently, he has been unlucky, and he has lost all the money he has received from Tang Mian's house.

originally thought that after his mother's incident, Tang Mian would have a different opinion of him, but the truth was far from the same.

She's been avoiding him a lot lately.

No, you have to get Tang Mian in your hands.

As long as she marries herself, such a store is not his alone.

Tang Mian, you can't escape......

A few days later, early in the morning, Tang Mian yawned, and when she got into the ox cart just now, her right eyelid jumped a few times, and she hurriedly covered her eyes.

Every time her eyelids jumped, it meant that something must have happened, and many bad feelings came to her heart, and suddenly the ox cart seemed to be stuck in something.

"Oops! The ox cart got stuck in the mud puddle, and everyone came down first to help push the cart. ”

An hour later, Tang Mian dragged his heavy steps to the county, lying on the side of the city wall and gasping for breath.

Today is destined to be not peaceful, the wheel of Uncle Niu's ox cart actually cracked a big hole, and it was stuck in the mud, so that she has not arrived in the county seat until now.

The day after tomorrow is the day when their store really opens, and if she, the boss, doesn't show up, it really can't be justified.

"The owner, you can count it as coming, the signboard will be delivered, and you can hang it up tomorrow." Tian Bo saw her limping and hurriedly ran to her.

"What's wrong with your leg?" He glanced down at Tang Mian and asked.

"Oh, it's not that the ox cart in the village is broken, so you can only walk on your feet......"

In the dark, a pair of eyes kept staring at Tang Mian, and he didn't leave until her and Tian Bo's figures disappeared in front of him.

At noon, Tang Mian in the courtyard demonstrated to everyone how to pack chaos.
