Chapter 083: The Unexpected Truth
Lu Yuan and Xu Huangxuan came to their employer's house.
This house is a luxuriously renovated three-bedroom house, and the new European-style furniture in the house shows the good financial situation of the family. The hostess looked like she was thirty-seven or eighteen years old, well-dressed and wearing delicate makeup, but at this time she was blushing and gloomy.
The man is a few years older than the hostess, in his early forties, with a typical Chinese face, a suit and tie, and shiny leather shoes, and should be ready to go out. But it was delayed by this matter at home.
The employer's surname is Zhou, and in addition to the Zhou couple, there are also Manager Li of Meihui Housekeeping and Aunt Wang Yuehua of Housekeeping.
Wang Yuehua is one of the twenty laid-off female workers in the last batch of placement, black and thin, she doesn't like to talk much, but she is a good worker, Lu Yuan has some impressions of her.
At this time, Wang Yuehua was standing alone in the corner, crying secretly.
Obviously, the scene seems to have just experienced a fierce argument, and the atmosphere is a little tense and awkward.
Manager Li of Meihui Housekeeping introduced Lu Yuan to the Zhou couple for the first time. The male owner was okay, and nodded kindly in response, but the hostess didn't react at all, don't turn around, and don't pay attention to Lu Yuan at all.
Lu Yuan shrugged, it doesn't matter who he loves. He walked to Aunt Wang Yuehua with Xu Xuanhuang and comforted her a few words, after all, they were Wang Yuehua's mother's family. It's not easy to find another way to make a living after being laid off, and if their mother's family doesn't even have a warm word when they come in, it will be so chilling.
Then, he asked Wang Yuehua: "Aunt Wang, what is going on, can you tell me about it yourself?" ”
According to Manager Li's introduction, Wang Yuehua's part-time job is to go to Zhou's employer's house every afternoon to clean up, then cook a dinner before leaving.
To say that Wang Yuehua stole his employer's things, Lu Yuan resolutely did not believe it. Let's not say that the backbone and character of the Sanmian people will not do this kind of thing at all, let's just say that it is the time of the crime, and she is not allowed to steal things. Aunt Wang Yuehua has such a wilting character, dare to steal things in this situation where the owner is at home?
So he wants to listen to what Wang Yuehua himself has to say.
Wang Yuehua stopped sobbing and said in a low voice: "Xiao Lu, they wronged me for stealing things. But I really don't. I came here at two o'clock today, as usual, and the hostess opened the door for me at home, and then she went out. After I cleaned up by myself, I was ready to wash the vegetables and cook. As a result, when the proprietress returned, she suddenly said that she had lost her gold necklace. I don't really know anything. ”
"Aunt Yuehua, usually when you are doing hygiene, are you often alone? Or is it only today, you are alone? Lu Yuan asked.
"Usually I am alone." Wang Yuehua said.
"Hmph. Is there still so much nonsense? Last week, when I took the necklace back, she saw it, and I thought it wasn't right in her eyes. The hostess's voice was high and sharp, and she was very emotional, and she decided that Wang Yuehua had taken her necklace.
"Hmm...... Mrs. Zhou, right? ”
Lu Yuan raised his eyelids and glanced at the hostess, to be honest, he didn't like the air that Mrs. Zhou commanded and commanded, and when he spoke with his mouth, he felt that he was awesome, what was it? Isn't it just that the family has two dollars and can afford to hire a housekeeper?
So by the way, Lu Yuan's tone of voice was also a little stiff, and he said, "Mrs. Zhou, don't say it so absolutely. It is said that catching thieves and catching stolen goods, according to what Aunt Yuehua said just now, you didn't see her steal your gold necklace with your own eyes, right? ”
Mrs. Zhou was stunned, she didn't expect this new young man to be so upset, but her aggressive tone did not cut half a point: "I didn't see her steal with my own eyes, didn't she steal?" There is no one else in the family except her, will my gold necklace still run away with long legs on its own? It's funny! ”
"Hey, you woman is so unreasonable," Xu Xuanxuan couldn't stand her domineering and unreasonableness, and said bluntly, "Just because Aunt Yuehua is an outsider, you have no evidence to conclude that she stole it." Is there something in your house that has been gone for a while, and it must have been stolen by a few outsiders? You're just messing around! ”
"Yo, you little girl still dare to say that I am messing around? My necklace was stolen, and you say I'm messing around? ”
Mrs. Zhou was even more excited when Xu Xuanxuan said this, and said to Manager Li of Meihui Housekeeping: "I want to sue you, I see who will dare to use your family's services in the future!" ”
Manager Li was anxious when he heard this, and kept giving Lu Yuan a look, which means that I called you over to help settle this matter, not to make trouble.
Lu Yuan gently flicked Xu Xuanxuan's arm, signaled her to stop talking, and then said to Mrs. Zhou: "Mrs. Zhou, my colleague doesn't mean this, sometimes things are missing, and they may have fallen in some corner." May I ask Mrs. Chow, when was the last time you saw a necklace? ”
"Yesterday morning, when I went to get the household registration book, the necklace was still there." Mrs. Zhou's temperament has not disappeared, and her speech is also rigid.
Lu Yuan asked again: "Then from yesterday morning to this afternoon, when you went home this afternoon, you found that the necklace was missing, during this time, apart from Aunt Yuehua and your husband and wife, has anyone else appeared at home in your family?" ”
"Who else can we have in our family but ourselves?"
Mrs. Zhou said impatiently, "Huh? What do you mean? When you yourself are the public security to solve the case, when I am a prisoner, take it for trial? ”
"Yes. My mother also lived with us. ”
The hostess, who had been silent, answered Lu Yuan's question, and then said with a wry smile: "But as my wife said, this house is full of our own family, and the matter of losing things has never happened in our family before this housekeeping aunt came." ”
Compared with his wife, Mr. Zhou's speech was much gentler, but he also told the truth, before Wang Yuehua came, there was no loss of things in their family. Although he didn't say that Wang Yuehua stole the necklace, this also showed his attitude, and he was still suspicious of Wang Yuehua.
"I didn't steal...... I didn't steal, you believe me......"
Wang Yuehua shook her head repeatedly, although her voice was weak, she still defended her innocence.
"It's useless to say anything now, who else is the most suspicious besides you? Could it be that we husbands and wives steal our own things? ”
Mrs. Zhou looked at the thin Wang Yuehua proudly, and proposed, "Otherwise, let's search my body, and also, check my bag." ”
Mrs. Zhou's words show that she is completely sure that the necklace was stolen by Wang Yuehua. As she said, in addition to their husband and wife and her mother-in-law, there is only Wang Yuehua as an outsider in the family.
However, her proposal made the faces of several people present change and frown.
Even Manager Li, a Meihui housekeeper who has always wanted to stay out of the matter, couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Mrs. Zhou, it's not appropriate to search your body, right?" It's disrespectful to people. ”
"Hey, it's illegal to search your body, are you legally blind?" Xu Huanghuang directly reprimanded loudly.
"I will never allow you to do that!" Lu Yuan shook his head with a resolute attitude.
"I didn't steal, why should I be searched!"
The weak Wang Yuehua suddenly straightened her waist and resisted loudly: "Although I am a housekeeper, I also have human dignity, I also took a model worker in Hangsan Cotton Factory, why is it so insulting?" You said that your necklace is expensive, but it is not mine, and my Wang Yuehua is not rare at all! ”
"Reika...... The frisking is not appropriate......"
Mr. Zhou also frowned and vetoed his wife's bad idea, he is in business, and he still has basic legal knowledge.
