Chapter 188 Eyesight
"If my brother really stole other people's money, then I will definitely help him compensate without saying a word, but before the matter is found out, as a sister, I can't press my brother's head hard and make him admit that he is a thief .”
Ye Anlan's words got the nod of approval from the vast majority of people present, isn't it just that, if they change their own baby, they can't just let the child bear the name of unclean hands and feet like this.
Ye Anlan got the support of the public opinion, turned her head and fired at the old man again, "Old man, you heard it too, if you can't prove that my younger brother really stole your silver, I'm afraid I'll have to drag you to an official."
The old man was stared at by a large group of people, and he couldn't help but start to feel weak. At this moment, Ye Anlan pressed him every step of the way, and he was already thinking of retreating.
But thinking about his sick grandson, the old man still gritted his teeth and did not let himself run away.
He pointed at Zheng Fengshou, "He just stole my money, and his money bag is also mine. You can't say it's not mine just because the money looks the same."
Speaking of this, he covered his face and began to cry, "My mother-in-law was still waiting for me to grab medicine for him, but I lost her life-saving silver, woo woo, I deserve to die, I deserve to die!"
This means that if you can't say it, you will directly start showing weakness and gaining sympathy.
Ye Anlan took a deep breath, "Then you can't just blackmail my family's money without any evidence, can you? According to your logic, can I also just grab someone on the street and insist that they stole money?" took my money?"
When the people who sympathized with the old man heard this, they suddenly felt that they might lose their money, so they all supported Ye Anlan.
Hearing everyone's support for Ye Anlan, the old man couldn't help but stop crying—it was different from what he had imagined.
He pinched his leg hard, "I, I have evidence!"
He pointed to Zheng Fengshou who was holding the money bag, "In addition to scattered copper coins, there are ten small silver ingots of one tael in his money bag, and one small silver bill of twenty taels."
Zheng Fengshou was furious. Isn't this the amount of money that Zhou Mingzhe told him to save some money just now? Is this person co-authoring a bad idea that has been in his pocket since then?
"Fengshou." Ye Anlan waved to Zheng Fengshou who was about to tell the truth, "Give me the money bag."
Zheng Fengshou was aggrieved and handed over his money bag, Ye Anlan raised his hand and patted his forehead, "Okay, don't make a sad face, I will help you prove that you didn't steal the money."
"Big Sister" Zheng Fengshou glared at the old man, then silently retreated to stand half a step behind Ye Anlan.
Ye Anlan reached into the money bag, and through the barrier of the fabric, squeezed all the small silver ingots in the bag into ugly silver lumps.
She took out the silver lumps one by one, and put the golden beans in one by one, and by the way, she replaced the twenty-two small-denomination silver note in the purse with a one-hundred-two large-denomination silver note.
The audience only thought that Ye Anlan was taking out money, but they didn't know that she was actually using the cover of her sleeves and the fabric of the purse to openly and openly change positions under the watchful eyes of everyone.
There were ten silver bumps in total, and Ye Anlan placed them on a red lacquered wooden tray that Wen Liuniang found somewhere.
After finishing the arrangement, she glanced at the old man, then at the crowd around the audience, and then slowly aligned the opening of the purse with the tray.
The golden beans rolled out, and when they came into contact with the wooden pallet, they made a dull and slight knocking sound one after another.
The onlookers who saw this scene couldn't help taking a breath.
"My mother-in-law grandma, this, this is... gold?"
"I actually saw gold!"
"I can't tell that this group of people is quite rich."
"Why do you still dress like this when you have money?"
"Could it be from another place?"
“.”
Everyone was chattering, and some people even wanted to get close to the tray.
At this time, no one cared whether the old man really lost his money bag, they just wanted to go over and take a closer look at those golden beans.
There are those who have bad intentions, even the moment they see the golden beans, they think of creating chaos, and then take advantage of the chaos to touch one or two of them.
However, at the moment when the crowd was commotioning, the twenty guards who were originally scattered in the surrounding crowd suddenly stepped out and pulled out their knives and swords in unison.
They quickly formed a semicircle around Ye Anlan's left, right, and rear. Yang Xiaotao and Wen Liuniang took a step forward in unison, holding swords and standing in front of Ye Anlan's side.
The melon-eating crowd, who were still a little hot-headed, seemed to have been poured with cold water in their pockets for three or nine days. Not only did they not continue to move forward, but they even took a few steps back in unison.
To survive in the troubled times, these people don't say anything else, they still have some eyesight. They know who can be messed with and who can't be messed with. They know better than anyone else.
Even the old man who was thinking about extorting money before was so frightened by the sudden appearance of a large group of people that he fell to the ground.
He looked at Ye Anlan who was slowly pulling out another bank note from his purse, and the girl's "Oops" sounded from a distance but also very close to his ears.
Ye Anlan slowly opened and smoothed the banknotes folded into small squares, then stared at the Chinese characters on the banknotes and let out a fake "Oops", "What should I do? The banknotes are not twenty taels either. "
The old man's face was ashen. He was wrong, he shouldn't have been instigated by others to come here to make trouble for this group of people just for a little money.
Don't say that he was prepared for a long time ago. The amount of money in the purse is completely different from the amount of money he heard from the people behind the scenes. Let's just say that the group of thugs he brought with him is an ordinary man of his. Can ordinary old men be provoked?
Don't let him not only fail to earn money for his family, but in the end he brought disaster to his family, so even if he dies, he may not be able to close his eyes in peace.
He knelt down on the ground and kowtowed vigorously to Ye Anlan and Zheng Fengshou, "Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, it's all because of the lard of the villain."
Ye Anlan glanced at him, "It's not impossible if you want me to spare you, as long as you tell me who hired you to discredit us, I promise I won't embarrass you in the future, and I won't implicate your family. "
The old man was slightly stiff. He wanted to say it, but he didn't dare. Compared with crossing the river dragon, he dared not offend local snakes.
The old man was in a panic, and he kowtowed vigorously, "No, no one, it's just that the villain's heart was covered in lard. The villain will make amends to you, and the villain will make amends to you."
What he didn't know was that his reaction had actually given Ye Anlan the answer she wanted.
