Chapter 43 Framed
“Oh…”
Xu Damao's voice was shrill, and the sound of pain was so low that it was almost inaudible.
The whole person curled up on the ground and rolled around.
"Silly Zhu, you are not a human being!"
When Lou Xiao'e saw her husband being beaten, her face turned pale with fright.
The next second, tears came out and she quickly went forward to support Xu Damao.
"Silly! Don't do it!"
The old man saw Xu Damao's miserable appearance and was afraid that Sha Zhu would continue beating him, so he quickly stopped him.
The people watching the fun in the yard saw that Sha Zhu not only stole the chicken, but also dared to beat people.
They were instantly filled with anger and started to criticize and condemn Sha Zhu, saying they would send him to the security department.
When he heard that he would be sent to the security department, Sha Zhu was dumbfounded.
He is not really stupid. It will take a long time to send him to the security department.
Don't let him be accused of stealing the chicken.
I quickly looked at the old man with a look of help.
When Uncle Yi Zhonghai saw Sha Zhu's appearance, he was immediately furious.
But he still had the thought of letting Sha Zhu take care of him in his old age.
No matter how disappointed I am with him now, I can't send him to the security department.
He rolled his eyes again and again and immediately came up with an idea.
"Ahem! Everyone calm down!
We are all from the same courtyard, we see each other every day, so don't make things too awkward.
It would be embarrassing if word got out, and people would think that everyone in our courtyard is a thief and ruin our reputation.
Look at the Liu and Yan families, there are still a few guys who haven't gotten married yet. It's not good to affect them."
The old man coughed twice and said a few words, which immediately calmed everyone in the yard down.
Yes, this courtyard has been rated as advanced for several consecutive years.
You will look proud when you go out, in case word gets out that there is a thief in the yard.
How can I face people in the future?
The second and third uncles of the Liu and Yan families initially wanted to severely punish Sha Zhu.
Now I have changed my mind immediately.
“That’s right, it’s all in the same yard, there’s no need to make such a big fuss.
So, I will make the decision and let Sha Zhu compensate Xu Damao five dollars and send the chicken back.
Let’s just leave it at that.”
The third uncle thought the fastest and immediately realized that the news must not be spread out.
Being able to solve the problem in the yard is the best outcome.
The onlookers immediately began to agree, saying that what the third uncle said made sense.
"I didn't steal the chicken! Fang wanted to buy this chicken!"
Sure enough, when Sha Zhu heard that he had to pay five dollars and give the chicken to Xu Damao.
There's no way I'd suffer this loss, so I told the truth right away.
At this time, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi, who were hiding in the crowd, changed their expressions.
Others may not know, but they know it very well.
When Banggeng, Xiaodang and Huaihua came back today, their clothes were covered with oil spots.
How could I not know that they had eaten meat?
In addition, Xu Damao said that his chicken was lost.
I immediately suspected that it was Banggeng who did it.
At first, I planned to get away with it and then go to Sha Zhu’s house later to ask for a chicken leg to satisfy my craving.
I didn’t expect that now, Sha Zhu said that he didn’t steal it, so we must investigate further.
Wouldn't the truth be revealed? When I thought about having to pay five dollars, I was immediately dumbfounded.
"Shazhu, are you kidding me? Fang Xiang is going to college, and I haven't seen him for more than a month.
You said it was Fang Xiang who bought the chicken, but where is Fang Xiang himself?"
Xu Damao stood up, covering his crotch, gritting his teeth, with a look of resentment on his face.
"I bought the chicken and asked Brother Zhuzi to stew it for me."
Fang Xiang saw that it involved him, so he stopped watching the fun and stood up.
When everyone heard Fang Xiang talking in the back, they immediately dispersed and made way for him.
Fang wanted to walk directly to Sha Zhu.
"You said you bought it, so you bought it, right? You must have discussed it with Sha Zhu!"
Xu Damao was surprised, but immediately thought that the two were in collusion.
"Sun thief, I think you still want to be beaten, right? You are still slandering me!"
Sha Zhu was furious, and he came here to tease Xu Damao from the beginning.
Now that Fang Xiang had arrived and explained everything, Xu Damao still refused to let him go.
He immediately raised his fist to hit Xu Damao, but was immediately stopped by an old man.
“That’s right, I also think that Fang Xiang and Sha Zhu are colluding to deceive people.
Fang wanted to go to college, but he only received a subsidy of 19 yuan a month.
This chicken must cost at least two dollars.
Would he be willing to eat it? He must have stolen it!"
Jia Zhang, who was hiding in the crowd, suddenly spoke.
At first, seeing that Sha Zhu was wrongly accused, Fang Xiang stood up and saw that the truth was about to be revealed.
Jia Zhang was afraid that the conspiracy would be linked to her grandson, and suddenly she became smart.
He began to distort the facts and started to make trouble about Fang Xiang's subsidy.
"Yeah, he's a college student and he only makes that little money a month. How could he buy a chicken?"
"Meals at school also cost money. Is there any money left after a month?"
"I think they are definitely in cahoots."
"I didn't expect that you would still do such dirty things even though you're already in college."
“Maybe going to college is a scam.”
"That's right, how can a college student steal chickens?"
"I really didn't realize that Fang Xiang was this kind of person."
As soon as Jia Zhang finished speaking, the neighbors in the yard began whispering again.
Everyone looked at Fang Xiang with strange eyes.
Who doesn’t know how valuable college students are nowadays!
As long as you graduate, the government will assign you a job. Just this point alone will make many unemployed people jealous.
Not to mention, even if you are an intern, the salary is 49 yuan, and once you become a regular employee, it will be 5 yuan.
Everyone is so envious.
Now, envy turns into jealousy.
These words, not a single one was missed, reached Fang Xiang's ears.
I never expected that these people would never change their bad behavior.
Just when Fang wanted to stand out and fight.
"Fang Xiang, look at you, you're already in college, why are you still telling lies?
This is not what a college student should do!"
At this time, the second uncle slowly added another blow.
The eldest son of the Liu family ran away with his wife just after getting married.
The remaining two sons are more useless than the other and both live off their parents at home.
During the National Day, the news that Fang wanted to go to college spread throughout the courtyard.
At first, no one believed it.
Fang thought that both his father and mother were gone and it was difficult for him to have enough food to eat.
How come I’m in college in the blink of an eye?
But looking at the Fang family’s door, there was no one there for many days.
Gradually, everyone accepted that Fang Xiang was really going to college.
Otherwise, it’s impossible that you won’t see anyone for a month or two, right?
But now Fang Xiang showed up, not only did he lie to his face, he also turned out to be the chicken thief.
This immediately made those people, who were previously very dissatisfied and angry, become sarcastic.
"That's right, he's still a college student! He's so grown up, and he still steals chickens!
It would have been fine if he had just stolen the chicken himself, but he blatantly gave it to Sha Zhu and asked others to help stew it.
When did this college student become so shameless? "
Seeing that everyone was agreeing with her, Jia Zhang looked very proud and immediately continued to add insult to injury.
He wished he could immediately prove that Fang wanted to steal the chicken so that his good grandson could escape punishment and not have to pay the five dollars.
“Fang Xiang bought the chicken, and I saw it on my way back.
I took the initiative to help others stew the chicken, and Fang Xiang even said he would give me the chicken neck, chicken head and chicken butt. "
Sha Zhu was a little anxious. He saw it with his own eyes when Fang Xiang came back.
The chicken was also taken from Fang Xiang’s car.
He felt a little guilty about being framed, so he quickly stiffened his neck and spoke up for Fang Xiang.
"Shazhu, you have been deceived by Fang Xiang. He must have stolen the chicken first and then gave it to Shazhu.
So, you have nothing to say? Why don’t you pay me back now!”
When Jia Zhang heard Sha Zhu say there were chicken necks, chicken heads and chicken butts.
She immediately became jealous, thinking that such a good thing could only belong to her family.
How can it be someone else's turn?
But in order to let his beloved grandson escape punishment, he could only bear it for now.
Let’s wait until the crime is put on Fang Xiang, then we can talk about the chicken.
How could I not let my lovely grandson eat such a fat and fragrant chicken?
Forget about the chicken head, chicken neck and chicken butt.
If you want to eat, eat chicken legs!
Yes, give your grandson a big chicken drumstick! And you have to eat two!
"Yes! Pay me! Pay me five dollars!
And that chicken, you have to give it back to me too!"
Xu Damao saw that so many people started to support him.
Although the suspect of stealing the chicken changed from Sha Zhu to Fang Xiang.
But no matter who it is, as long as you lose five dollars, you can just buy it again.
A laying hen costs two dollars, so I made three dollars more.
You can also eat a chicken for free, that’s a huge win, right?
I felt so happy that I didn't even feel the pain in my scrotum.
