Siheyuan: Lou Xiao'e, Yu Li and the Savage Woman

After walking only two steps, Jia Zhang called Cao Haotian again.

"Haotian, can I ask you something?"

Cao Haotian turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

"When you took He Yushui out today, did you see this girl buying a gold ring?"

Cao Haotian frowned and looked at Jia Zhang.

The old man had sharp eyes and actually noticed that He Yushui was wearing a gold ring.

"I didn't see He Yushui buy a gold ring." Cao Haotian answered truthfully.

Jia Zhang said again: "Haotian, I lost 20 yuan today, and He Yushui happened to buy a gold ring. Do you think she might have picked up the money I lost?"

Cao Haotian smiled.

It turned out to be the case.

This afternoon, when Cao Haotian came to find He Yushui to watch a movie, he met Jia Zhang in the front yard.

At that time, the old woman wanted him to cause trouble for He Daqing.

As a punishment, Cao Haotian collected the 20 yuan from Jia Zhang into the space.

The money on her body suddenly disappeared, so Jia Zhang naturally thought it was lost.

Just then, I saw the gold ring on He Yushui's hand, so I had some self-righteous doubts...

Cao Haotian is ready to resolve Jia Zhang's suspicion.

"Where did you lose your $20?"

Jia Zhang said with a sad face: "I put the 20 yuan in this pocket. I don't know where I lost it, but it must have been lost in this yard..."

At this time, He Yushui pushed open the door and walked out.

She was very curious about what Cao Haotian and Jia Zhang were talking about?

"What are you guys talking about here? Are you saying bad things about me?"

Cao Haotian waved his hand: "No one said anything bad about you, it was just Jia Zhang who said that 20 yuan was lost..."

He Yushui quickly came to Jia Zhang and said angrily, “I’ll say it again, I didn’t pick up a penny today.

If you dare to frame and slander me again, when He Daqing comes back, I will make him vent my anger for me..."

He Yushui couldn't call him father, so he could only call him by his full name.

Jia Zhang looked bitter.

Cao Haotian tried to smooth things over: "Although I haven't had much contact with He Yushui for a long time, from what I know, He Yushui is not the kind of person who would not return the money he found.

I think there must be a misunderstanding here. Maybe the money you lost was picked up by someone else.

There is another possibility, your money is not lost at all, maybe you left it at home or in the pocket of another piece of clothing?"

Cao Haotian looked at Jia Zhang.

Jia Zhang shook her head and said, "I didn't keep it at home. I put it in the pocket of this cotton-padded jacket."

After Jia Zhang finished speaking, she even took out the bottom pocket of her cotton jacket.

"Is there anything in the other pocket of the cotton-padded jacket?" He Yushui asked.

"No, I checked it already."

After Jia Zhang finished speaking, she reached into another pocket of her cotton-padded jacket...

At this moment, she was very surprised...

Because her hand felt two bills in her pocket...

what's the situation?

When she discovered her money was missing, she searched all the pockets of her clothes but found nothing.

Why are there banknotes in the pockets of cotton-padded jackets nowadays?

In order to prevent He Yushui from suspecting that she was framing her, Jia Zhang took her hand out of the pocket of her cotton jacket without making a sound.

“It’s not in this pocket either, so I guess it might not have been lost in the yard.

Because I went to a public restroom, maybe it fell on the way to the restroom..."

Jia Zhang planned to muddle through the matter first.

Cao Haotian said calmly: "No, Jia Zhang, I noticed that you seem to be a little guilty..."

"How can I feel guilty?"

Jia Zhang calmly explained: "I was suspicious because I lost my money and felt uncomfortable.

I think Yu Shui is a good kid, and she is definitely not the kind of person who would not return the money she found, so she definitely didn’t find the money I lost…”

Cao Haotian looked at He Yushui: "Yushui, there must be something fishy about this matter. Jia Zhang told me before that she suspected that you had picked up the money and bought the gold ring.

But she just reached into the pocket of her cotton-padded jacket and changed her story. Don’t you think that’s wrong?”

With Cao Haotian's reminder, He Yushui also reacted.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, you have to explain yourself clearly to me today.

Otherwise, if you frame me like this and ruin my reputation, I will have to call the police and have you arrested..."

Seeing that the matter was about to get out of hand, Jia Zhang hurriedly apologized:

"Yushui, don't be angry, it's all your fault, I'm old and confused.

I shouldn’t have falsely accused you of picking up the money. I apologize to you here. I just realized that the 20 yuan was not lost..."

Jia Zhang took out two big unity notes from the pocket of her cotton-padded jacket...

He Yushui snorted coldly: "Next time if you dare to frame me, don't blame me for being rude..."

After saying these harsh words, He Yushui turned around and walked back to his room.

Jia Zhang had a terrible headache.

She was very worried that He Yushui would tell He Daqing about this.

At the same time, Jia Zhang was also very confused. How did the 20 yuan end up in her pocket? She had obviously lost it.

Cao Haotian said earnestly: "Remember this and don't frame others for no reason in the future."

"Hurry up and go to the front yard to take care of Yan Laokou! I just heard him calling you..."

Jia Zhang sighed.

She put the 20 yuan back into the pocket of her cotton-padded jacket and walked towards the front yard...

Cao Haotian chuckled.

He had just put the 20 yuan back into Jia Zhang's cotton-padded jacket pocket.

Now that the matter has been resolved, the money must be got back.

Cao Haotian once again put the 20 yuan in Jia Zhang's cotton-padded jacket pocket into the space...

After parking his bicycle in the yard, Cao Haotian walked towards He Yushui's room...
