Chapter 76:
The Truth
Du's face no longer looked as arrogant as when she was confronting Murong Lingran, and she said in a trembling voice: "I... I just don't feel like my appetite is very good today, I just want to save it for dinner, there is no other meaning. "
“Save it for dinner?” Granny Sun glanced at her left wrist and frowned: “I remember you were always wearing a silver bracelet, right? Where did the silver bracelet go?”

Du Shi quickly covered her wrist, "I...I just didn't wear it today."
“Then go and find it now.”
"I asked my boy to take...it back yesterday."
Grandma Sun suddenly shouted loudly: "Mrs. Du, you still haven't told the truth!"
Murong Lingran said calmly: "Let me speak for her. I don't know the circumstances of her home. Maybe she pawned the silver bracelet due to a sudden shortage of money at home, and the child couldn't eat well, so she thought of taking the chicken legs to give it to the children.”
“The weather is hot now, and the chicken legs will go rancid within a short period of time. It’s noon now, so she should have informed her family in advance, and she will probably give the chicken legs to her children soon.”
“Is what she said true?”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Du knew that as long as Xiuzhuang sent someone to her house to have a look, it would be clear. At this time, even her sophistry was useless. She lowered her head and said, "Yes, it's pretty much what she said..."
Her husband had a conflict with people some time ago and impulsively injured several people with a knife. Fortunately, they were all minor injuries and did not take their life.
But the other party said, either pay the money or go to jail.
If he goes to jail, her family will be ruined.
The family was selling pot and iron, so she pawned a lot of money from her dowry and borrowed some money from relatives and friends, and finally settled the matter.
But the news about her husband hurting people has spread, and no one dares to buy their meat anymore, and no one dares to sell the whole pig to her husband, so the business will naturally not be able to continue.
Since then, her husband has been even more depressed. He stays at home dejectedly every day and does nothing.
Children have to eat every day, so when she saw Yang’s purse yesterday, she had a bad idea.
"That's what happened. Yang left her purse under her pillow several times before and didn't find it until night."
"Last night while she was sleeping, I stole her purse and wanted to find an opportunity to send it home. I didn't expect that Yang would find out so early today, and I would be suspected, so I had to take advantage of her first and wrongfully accuse Xiao. .”
When the truth finally came to light, Mrs. Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her daughter with eyes full of gratitude, "A’Ran, thank you."
Until this moment, she felt that her daughter had grown up and could protect her.
"Mother, you don't have to be so polite. This is what I should do." Murong Lingran said with a shy smile.
A woman said with a smile: "This child has very good eyesight. She actually discovered that there was something hidden in Du Shi's belly."
Murong Lingran touched her head in embarrassment, "Actually, I read in a book that a thief will catch a thief if he shouts. Whoever asked her to jump the highest here, so I observed her carefully and smelled the smell of meat on her body. , I just took a guess, who knew that she really has something hidden in her stomach, it was good luck.”
Everyone suddenly realized that this was the case.
Ms. Yang looked at Mrs. Xiao with some envy. It would be great if she also had a daughter who was so smart and could protect herself.
“Sister Xiao, I’m sorry, I actually doubted you just now.” Yang said with some embarrassment.
