Chapter 188
"If my brother really stole other people's money, I would definitely help him compensate without saying a word. But before the matter was found out, I was a sister and I couldn't press my brother's head and let him admit that he was a thief."
Ye Anlan's words were nodded by most people present, but that's right? If they were their own children, they wouldn't just let their children carry their hands and feet on their backs.
Ye Anlan received public support and turned around and fired at the old man again, "Brother-in-law, you have heard it too. If you can't prove that my brother did steal your money, I'm afraid I'll just take you to see the official."
The old man was stared at by a large group of people's eyes, and his heart was already involuntarily starting to feel weak. At this time, Ye Anlan pressed him step by step, and he was actually already in a state of retreat.
But thinking about his sick grandson, the old man still gritted his teeth and did not let himself escape in panic.
He pointed at Zheng Fengshou, "He just stole my silver, and his wallet was mine. You can't just say that it's not mine just because the silver looks the same."
Speaking of this, he covered his face and started crying, "My wife was still waiting for me to get medicine for him, but I lost her life-saving money, wuwu...I deserve to die, I deserve to die!"
This is just a matter of being able to say that, and then he started to show off his weakness and gain sympathy.
Ye Anlan took a deep breath, "Then you can't just extort my money in vain without any evidence, right? According to your logic, can I just pull someone on the street and then insist that someone stole my money?"
When the old man was a little sympathetic to the melon-eating crowd heard it, they felt that they might not have to protect their money, so they all supported Ye Anlan.
Hearing everyone's support for Ye Anlan, the old man couldn't help but cried slightly - this was different from what he imagined.
He pinched his legs hard, "I, I have evidence!"
He pointed at Zheng Fengshou, who held the purse, "In addition to the scattered copper coins in his purse, there were a total of ten small silver ingots of one or two taels of silver and a small silver note of twenty taels."
Zheng Fengshou was so angry. Wasn't this the amount of money he reported just now when Zhou Mingzhe asked him to save some money? Did this guy have a bad idea to put on his wallet since then?
"Great Harvest." Ye Anlan waved at Zheng Fengshou, who was about to tell the truth, and "give me the wallet."
Zheng Fengshou Committee handed over his money bag in aggrievedly. Ye Anlan raised his hand and patted his forehead, "Okay, don't cry, I will help you prove that you didn't steal money."
"Sister?" Zheng Fengshou glared at the old man, then stepped back silently to the position half a step behind Ye Anlan.
Ye Anlan reached into the purse and, with the barrier of fabric, he pinched all the small silver ingots in the bag into ugly silver bumps.
She took out the silver lumps one by one, put the golden beans in one by one, and then replaced the twenty taels of small silver notes in the purse with a large silver notes of one hundred taels.
The onlookers only thought that Ye Anlan was paying money, but they didn't know that she was actually using her sleeves and purse fabric to secretly change the pillars in front of everyone.
There were ten silver lumps in total, and Ye Anlan placed them on the red painted wooden pallet that Wen Liuniang had touched from somewhere.
After the arrangement, she glanced at the old man, then looked at the audience, and slowly aimed the opening of the purse at the tray.
The golden beans rolled out, and when they touched the wooden pallet, they made a dull and slight impact sound one after another.
The onlookers who saw this scene couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"My mother, grandma, this is... gold?"
"I actually saw gold!"
"I can't tell that this group of people is quite rich."
"Why do you still look like this when you have money?"
"Can't it come from another place?"
“…”
Everyone was talking nonsense, and some people were even eager to get to the tray.
At this time, no one cared whether the old man had really lost his wallet. They just wanted to come over and take a closer look at the golden beans.
There was a person with a bad mind, and the moment he saw the golden bean, he thought of creating chaos, and then taking advantage of the chaos to touch one or two of them.
However, at the moment when the crowd was in agitation, the twenty guards who were originally scattered in the surrounding crowd suddenly emerged and pulled out the swords and swords they were wearing with them.
They quickly formed a semicircle on Ye Anlan's left, right, and behind. Yang Xiaotao and Wen Liuniang took a step forward together, holding swords, standing on the front of Ye Anlan's side, one left and one right.
The melon-eating crowd, who were already a little hot-headed, seemed to have been poured with cold water in the 39th day. Not only did they not continue to move forward, but they also took a few steps back together.
If these people can survive in troubled times, they will still have some insights. They know more clearly in their hearts than anyone else.
Even the old man who had the idea of extorting money before was frightened by the large group of people who suddenly appeared so much that he fell to the ground.
He looked foolishly at Ye Anlan who slowly pulled out a silver note from his purse, and the girl's "Oh" sounded far away and very close to him.
Ye Anlan slowly opened the silver bills stacked into small squares, smoothed them, and then stared at the fake "Oh" of the Chinese characters on the bills, "What should I do? The silver bills are not twenty taels."
The old man looked as if he was dead. He was wrong. He shouldn't have been encouraged to come over to trouble these people for a little money.
Not to mention that people were prepared for a long time, the amount of money in their purse and the amount of money he heard from the people behind the scenes was completely different. I just said that the group of thugs he was with him, which could he provoke?
Not only did he not make money for his family, but he also led the trouble to his family. Even if he died, he would not be able to close his eyes with peace of mind.
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ye Anlan and Zheng Fengshou with all his might, "Good luck, nobility, nobility, nobility, nobility, nobility, nobility, all the villain's lard is so heartbroken."
Ye Anlan glanced at him and said, "It's not impossible to let me spare you. As long as you tell me who hired you to discredit us, I promise that I will not make things difficult for you or involve your family in the future."
The old man's body was slightly stiff. He wanted to say, but he didn't dare. He didn't dare to offend the local snake than the Jianglong.
The old man felt sad and kowtowed hard, "No, no one, it's just that the villain is so sad that he is confused. The villain apologizes you, and the villain apologizes you."
