"The things in here are all the same, why aren't they anymore?" Liang Yu shouted anxiously, "Do you want to bet that you swallowed the contents of this box?"

"But isn't there a silver ingot missing here? How can it be considered the same?" Ji Youyi said very innocently.

It's true that something is missing, but it's really hard to say why at the moment.

Liang Fangshi didn't think she had taken it privately. Besides, if she really wanted to take it privately, wouldn't she have just said she didn't find the box?

But it doesn't make sense if someone else discovered the box first and took the silver ingots away. But if someone else found the box and saw so much silver, they must have taken it all.

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't figure it out.

Liang Fangshi has no choice. If he doesn't admit it, he may not be able to get anything today.

"Good boy, I believe you are not the one who took things privately. There may be some misunderstanding here."

This was said in a vague way, but Ji Youyi did not accept this.

She said sternly: "Old madam, don't say that. This is about a big matter of dozens of taels of silver. We have something to say and we need to find out. If the number doesn't match, then this box must not be the one in my aunt's letter."

Which one. Muramasa, do you think what I said is right?"

She asked Muramasa to talk, wanting to know what the Liang family's purpose was.

Should he get the box back, or should he pester her to throw dirty water on her?

Muramasa nodded, as if he was acting impartially, "Youyi is right, only by making it clear can this matter be settled."

Even though the Liang family was suspicious and angry, they could only nod in agreement at this moment and did not dare to force it.

Liang Yu pulled Liang Fangshi aside and whispered: "Mom, although there is one silver ingot missing, there are more than a hundred taels of silver in the box. How about we admit it? What do you think?"

"But, this is different from what others explained." Liang Fangshi was afraid of delaying the matter and did not dare to accept it.

Liang Yu was anxious, "Mom, they only said that we should get the box, but they didn't say that the things in the box should be the same. Besides, could it be that the person made a mistake? In fact, there is only one silver ingot, and it was written as two on purpose.

Are we looking for an excuse to cause trouble?"

It's not impossible.

Liang Fangshi thought about it and felt that what her son said made sense.

"Son, my mother listens to you. Let's just say that there was a mistake in the letter. That's why we made a mistake. Mother will come to you later, so don't interrupt."

"Okay, mother, tell me."

After the mother and son discussed it, they returned to the crowd. Liang Fangshi said, "My child, you see that the contents in this box are the same as those in the letter, except for the silver ingot. But I think Gu Gu may have written it wrong.

There should be only one silver ingot, so this box belongs to Xiu Gu."

Ji Youyi nodded, "What the old lady said is also a possibility, but I still have to say one more thing. I really don't covet this thing."

"I understand, I understand." Liang Fangshi naturally did not dare to say anything else at this moment, "Good boy, don't you think so? Forget about this silver ingot, we will recognize so many things, and we won't do anything else.

I care about it."

Everything starts with getting the box.

They are smart, and Ji Youyi is not stupid either. "In that case, then please ask the old lady to write an explanation, sign and fingerprint, so that I can hand over the things to you."

"What do you mean, are you afraid that we will default on our debt?" Liang Yu looked unkind.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just afraid that there will be any conflicts in the future and I can't explain it clearly, so I might as well sign a letter today." Ji Youyi was unambiguous and took Cun Zheng as a supporter, "Cun Zheng, do you think this is the right thing to do?

"

"Yes, Youyi is right. It is best to put this matter in black and white to save trouble in the future." Muramasa was naturally on Ji Youyi's side.

Seeing that Ji Youyi refused to let go, Liang Fangshi agreed after thinking for a while.

"Okay, let's write it, but I can't read. Why don't we find a gentleman to write it?"

"No, no need." Mrs. Zhao Wang pulled Ji Youyi and said, "Youyi can write, let Youyi do it."

Ji Youyi took out a pen and paper and wrote down the whole thing in detail. She also wrote down the items in the box carefully and eloquently on a piece of paper.

"Look, everyone, if there is no problem, we will follow what is written on it, sign and place a deposit, and I will hand the box to you immediately."

Liang Fangshi took the paper, stared at it for a while, looked at Liang Yu, and said awkwardly: "Here, we don't know the words either."

Don’t know the words?

"Then how did you understand your aunt's letters before?" Ji Youyi was full of depression.

"We are illiterate, so of course there are literate people in the village." Liang Fangshi muttered. It is normal for country people to be illiterate, but at this moment, she felt a little embarrassed for no reason.

Ji Youyi took the letter and said, "Since you don't know each other, I'll read it to you. If you still have any questions, we can discuss it after I finish reading it."

Ji Youyi read the contents of the paper word for word.

The content on the paper is what happened. She wrote it in detail and wrote out everything in the box one by one. However, she did not mention Liang Xiugu's letter.

The Liang family was so focused on the box that they didn't notice these details at all.

After Ji Youyi finished reading, she said: "Do you understand clearly? If you agree with what is written on this paper, then sign it and let Muramasa certify it. From now on, this box will have nothing to do with me."

Liang Yu nodded hurriedly, "Listen carefully, listen carefully, I will sign."

Liang Fangshi pulled him back and said, "I'll do it, but kid, I can't read. How should I sign this name? How about I make a sign?"

This is reasonable, but Ji Youyi doesn't agree with this.

"It's easy because I don't know how to write. Let's leave something as a token."

"You are guarding us and treating us as thieves." Liang Yu pointed at Ji Youyi angrily, regardless of his mother's obstruction.

Ji Youyi took a step back and said calmly: "I'm just taking precautions. If you don't cause trouble in the future, you won't need this thing. So, just keep the silver hairpin in this box as a token.

"

It's nothing to leave a souvenir, but this silver hairpin is quite expensive.

Liang Fangshi pulled Liang Yu, and Liang Tian said to the side: "The things in this box are all left by Xiu Gu. This silver hairpin is worth several taels of silver anyway. You have to replenish us with this money."

Ji Youyi was really angry at these people for actually talking about money in front of her, so she wouldn't be polite.

"Yes, you are right." Ji Youyi sneered and nodded, "Since we are talking about money, this reminds me that I need to settle the account."
