Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 159 Finding faults (5)
"I can't."

Mo Qingju is not very familiar with the law, but in her eyes, aren't these matters all under the control of the elders of the yamen.

"Should I play the board here or go back to the Yamen?"

The officer stepped on the stool, drank tea, and chattered endlessly, "What's wrong with you, you insist on causing trouble, and you think we're free?"

"I don't accept it! I don't accept it! Why!"

The tough woman is still unconvinced, she is making the final struggle, Qingli lamented in her heart, in ancient times, it is best not to be an upright person, it will not end well in the end, so it is necessary to bend.

"Little girl, don't watch the fun. I'll wrap up all the jewelry for you. It's nine taels in total. You should bring enough money. Otherwise, look over there, the official is here, be careful to beat you!"

The waiter was impatient, seeing that the attention of the guests was on that side, he took this opportunity to threaten Qingli and said.

"Wow……"

Qingli brewed for a while, sat on the ground and began to cry loudly, and everyone immediately stared at her, wondering what the relationship between this little girl and that woman was.

"Little girl, what's wrong with you? What's the relationship between that beaten woman and you?"

There are also kind-hearted people who can't stand it anymore. Seeing a little girl crying so pitifully, Mo Qingju who is on the side can't react at all. I don't know if it's because the little girl is so young and scared to cry by the guy's words. She ruthlessly He glared at the buddy, then took out his handkerchief to wipe Qing Li's tears.

"I don't know that aunt."

Qingli choked with sobs and spoke intermittently.

"Then why are you crying? Have you never seen the official officer and you were scared?"

"No, I lost my purse, it was still there just now!"

"No one here will steal as many copper coins as you, a little girl."

Someone next to him chuckled lightly, and didn't take Qingli's childish words seriously.

"Not much, but the buddy said that if I can't afford the money to buy the jewelry I just saw, I will be arrested by the police, woo woo woo."

"kindness?"

Suddenly someone raised his voice and looked at the guy next to Qingli, who smiled awkwardly, "How is that possible?"

"But that's what you said!"

Qing Li wiped her eyes twice with a handkerchief, and suddenly felt more tears. In order to disgust the Xu family, she had to perform her best.

"Okay, but you took out the purse just now, you can't deceive me?"

"It's really gone!"

Qingli stood up, patted up and down, and shook her sleeves, just now she spent all the money on her cousin's pen and ink, and now only Qingli's is left.

"Strange! Where did the purse go?"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo there's this one!"

Everyone's attention was shifted again, and the officer said impatiently, "Why howling, how many copper coins do you have as a little girl, it's just that the money for buying sugar is lost."

"Masters, why don't you drag this woman to the yamen, we still have to do business here."

Seeing that the matter was almost handled, the shopkeeper came out to make peace again, he bowed to everyone, and said, "I'm really sorry, everyone, all the products in our store today, I will wipe out all the products in our shop today, and I will pay you all. "

What the shopkeeper said made a few guests happy. No matter who is right, it is not me who is unlucky, as long as I can get actual benefits, Qingli thought to himself, the Xu family has been playing with customers like this, so people don't know the truth.

With a sound of "snap...", Qingli's purse fell out of the sleeve pocket of the buddy next to her, and two more fell out with a slap.

"Oh my god, why is my purse on you?"

Everyone saw that three purses of different colors had fallen from the man's body. At this time, the man was also puzzled and kept explaining that he didn't take it by himself.

"Masters, this is not one person, but three purses. It is obvious to all that the guys from the Xu family stole money!"

When it comes to her own interests, the aunt who has lost her purse can't bear it anymore, she speaks quickly, every word is like a needle, every sentence pierces the boy's pain.

"Ahem, is there some misunderstanding? You gave the money to the guy to buy jewelry from our store."

At the critical moment, it was the shopkeeper who stood up to smooth things over. He glared at the clerk angrily, but at this moment the clerk represented the Xu family, and he must not lose the chain.

"Shopkeeper, your Xu family is a century-old brand. If such a big incident happened, not to mention sending the buddy to the official, you have to justify it. We will not hand over the purse when we pay the money, right? Besides, it is for the accountant. Didn't you see that This little girl cried and said that she lost her purse?"

"That's right, why are you still stealing things from customers?"

"Is this what a century-old brand should do? If it doesn't pay, it will be excused, and it is our purse that has grown legs and flew into his arms?"

Everyone yelled at Xu's family one-sidedly. Every word you said made the shopkeeper's face more and more gloomy. What's going on? If this happened under the watchful eyes of everyone, wouldn't it ruin a century-old reputation?It's a dilemma whether to continue to excuse or hand over this guy. Excuse me, everyone has eyes, if you hand it over, you will admit that the Xu family guy stole things.
"I didn't steal it, I just stayed here, how could I steal your purse?"

The buddy still wanted to struggle to defend himself, but he had a dejected look on his face, he must not plead guilty, otherwise he would not be able to eat and walk around.

Just when everyone was at a stalemate, a graceful and luxurious woman came down from the second floor, wearing jingle bells, followed by several maidservants. She looked at the tough woman with a blue nose and a swollen face, and frowned slightly, "Mother Xu, what are you doing?" what's going on?"

"Wuuuu, Ma'am, you have to make the decision for me!"

As if she had found a savior, the shrew knelt down and kowtowed loudly. Although she was crying, she spoke clearly and said the matter again.

When the shopkeeper saw this lady, he was also a little uneasy. He rubbed his hands and stepped forward to apologize, "Madam, I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to be you, it was a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstand?"

Madam glanced at the shopkeeper indifferently, and then at the officer, "I don't know when the laws of our Great Zhou will be changed."

This lady seemed to be understating it, but she actually said every word with a heart-to-heart, which scared a few officials so much that they almost peed their pants, and changed from being arrogant to a bereaved dog just now.

"Ma'am, do you think it would be good for me to ask my servant to go to the mansion to make amends in person? I really don't know that this woman belongs to your mansion."

"Oh?"

"This……"

The few officials walked around the town all the year round, so they naturally knew what was going on. Now they hated the Xu family to the core. Compared with flattering the magistrate's future concubine's family, the consequences of offending the prefect's brother-in-law's wife were more serious.
