After hearing this, Wen Nuan looked at the woman's face and suspected that she was deliberately framing her family and wanted a child bride!
Humph, you wish!
Wen Nuan quickly shook her head and said seriously, "That's impossible. How could my mom have washed and ruined your clothes? She's never done anything like that. Let me see the damage! My mom only just got here, how could she have already touched your clothes?"
"Girl, if you keep defending her like that, you'll just make things worse. Look at this! Do you know how much this outfit costs? You can't afford it!" Madam Qian slapped the table and shouted angrily.
Wen Ran backed off in fright.
Madam Qian continued, "This is custom-made from a boutique in the city. It's from a big-name designer! You think just anyone can afford it?"
She put on an act of righteous fury, trying to assert control with her presence.
She even looked at Wen Ran with scorn, as if to say: Only by relying on someone like me can your life improve!
The crowd was filled with people watching from the sidelines, shaking their heads. Some even muttered, "That's right, poor people shouldn't touch expensive things.
"Stinky girl, your mother tore the clothes to pieces when washing, look! What should I do with such a big hole! Do you still want to deny it?" Mrs. Qian handed the sleeve with a hole to Wen Qing and looked at them with contempt, her eyes full of bitterness and meanness.
Wen Nuan took the opportunity to pick up the clothes.
Ms. Qian continued to mutter, "An impolite woman is an impolite woman, and she is only fit to do menial work. I wanted you to wash a very expensive piece of clothing for you and let you make more money, but I didn't expect that you would damage it and would not admit it after washing the clothes! Hurry up and pay the money, or give this girl to my son as child bride .
Wen nuan glanced at the tear in the clothes. There is a small part of this tear that is very neat. It can only be cut with sharp scissors. You can't find it without a closer look.
Wen nuan smiled knowingly and said: "If you damage the clothes, you really need to pay."
Wu was anxious when she heard that, she took her arm and said: "Nuan, it was not me who damaged. This money cannot be compensated."
Wang was also anxious: "Nuan, don't be scared by this woman, we are not wrong, we don't need to pay!"
Wen Ran was also anxious: "Third sister, don't talk nonsense, mother will not lie!"
Mrs. Qian looked smugly: "You are a sensible little girl! Some people have lived in vain for so many years! Even a child understands the truth, but they don't understand it! Isn't it just natural to lose money if someone else's things are broken? "
Wen Nuan patted Wu's hand, reassuring her: "It is indeed natural and righteous to lose money if you break other clothes! It's just you didn't do anything and the one who did this will pay . Let's report to the officials."
"What? Report to the official?" Ms.Qian was dumbfounded. How did everything changed so quickly? Didn't you say that you have to pay for it?
Wennuan said resolutely: "Yes, report! There is a hole in this dress, which was obviously cut by sharp scissors, and then pulled apart by force, so that there will be such a big hole. I believe The official will definitely be able to see the details clearly and find out who broke this two dollar piece of clothing! Go, let's report to the official now! My mother did not do it and we aren't afraid to report".
How can this sick girl have such sharp eyes! Mrs. Qian wanted to grab the clothes.
Wennuan avoided her hand , the evidence is in her hand, how could she let it go.
Granny wang also understood that this cloth is probably torn by the old woman, and she is worried that they will be punished by the master and thus tried to frame them! She is so deceiving!
Wang cried loudly: "We will report to the official!"
Granny Wang pulled Ms. Qian's hand tried to go out.
Ms. Qian was startled, she pulled her hand back vigorously, but couldn't get it back. She stayed still, and insisted: "Don't deny you, maybe you brought the scissors and cut it!"
"My mother came here to wash clothes. She didn't come here to make clothes. How could she bring scissors. Since you said that, Sister, you should go to town to find dad immediately, ask dad to report to the official, and bring the official messenger. Search to see if your mother and grandma have scissors! I will stay here to protect the scene!"
"Okay, I'll go right away!" Wenran listened, and responded happily!
Ms Qian's heart skipped a beat! Ask the officer to come and search and protect the scene? Why does this plague bastard seem to know a lot?
But, this is not my own home, it's the landlord's home!
If this matter breaks out, it will alarm landlord Feng, and if the official finds out the truth neither her nor her daughter can escape.
This time Mrs. Qian was really frightened: "Wait! No need to report to the official, I believe you didn't break this dress! You don't need to pay for it, you go! I have to find out which little hoof cut it was. My lady's clothes are torn!"
Wen Ran ran to the door and stopped: "Sister, should we still report?"
Wu and Wang also breathe a sigh of relief, they both look at nuannuan.
Wennuan blinked her eyes, and quietly raised her index finger in a place where Mrs. Qian could not see, shook her, and made a no-action, but she said, "Why shouldn't we report! Is it so easy target mother? What if someone tries again? What if someone secretly rests the matter on their mother without finding out the truth?"
'You wanted to frame my family ? Frame all you want !'.
Is her family so easy to bully?
Today she will make her pay .
But there is no need to report to the official, if they complaint Ms. Qian will have to compensate only for the damaged clothes and will soon be free, but by not reporting her they can teach her a greater lesson!
"Okay!" Wenran ran away.
"Wait!!" Lady Qian shouted loudly.
Wenran had already ran out of the door, she heard that and she stopped again.
Ms. Qian is dying of anger, she said that they don't have to pay for it. What else does this dead girl want?
"What do you want? I said that I believe your mother, and you don't have to pay. Since it was not your mother, I will naturally not talk about it everywhere. Let it go ".
"Why do you want us to let go? Even if you don't say anything, others will say, I just heard the people in our village say all this so I came to know that this matter ! There are a lot of people, can you stop it? Now you are hurting my mother's reputation. You delayed my mother and my grandma for half a day, just by saying that you believe that it is not my mother, you think we will let this matter go, how can there be such a cheap thing in this world?"
"Then what do you want? Do you want me to go to the village and tell people that it's not your mother who damaged the clothes?" Madam Qian was almost dizzy.
"Apologize to my mother and grandma, as well as compensation for their mental losses, lost work expenses! And today's wages, a total of twenty cents! If you can do it, then only we will not report to the official! Don't think I don't know, your daughter must have torn this dress, and then you planted it on my mother."
Ms. Qian was shocked, how did she know?
Wennuan look at Ms. Qian's expression and instantly knew she guessed correctly.
This is a girl's dress. Mrs. Qian is an old lady with rough hands, so she will definitely not be a lady waiting by her side.
It is impossible for her to have access to Miss's clothes.
Who can come into contact with the clothes, and Mrs. Qian is willing to help. The most likely thing is that her daughter is the maid of the landlord's lady.
But her daughter accidentally cut her clothes. She didn't want her daughter to be punished by the master or even lose money.
The most important thing is that Mrs. Qian wants to take the opportunity to find a daughter-in-law for her son! What a bargain!
"You...you talk nonsense!" Madam Qian was so shocked that she couldn't speak her words well.
How did she know?
Wennuan smiled : "Is it nonsense? The official will know! Anyway, the official will always pay me compensation! Feng Dizhu is a great kind person, she knows that my mother and grandma were wronged by the servants in this house, and she will apologize. We are not at a loss, but some people may lose their jobs because of this!"
After speaking warmly, she turned to Wen Ran and said, "Sister Ran, report to the official quickly! What are you doing there!"
"Good!" Wen Ran ran away again!
Everyone realized that she had a point.
Madam Qian suddenly felt exposed.
Even the villagers shook their heads and sighed. Some whispered, "That Madam Qian always pretends to be high and mighty. She finally met her match."
Someone added, "She just wants to take advantage of people. What kind of nonsense was that?"
This also explained why she was panicking so much when the outfit was torn.
And that's why she was trying to cover it up by shifting blame.
She was certain that if she didn't settle things soon, she'd be the one in serious trouble!
In the end, Madam Qian couldn't argue. She looked like a deflated balloon, and had nothing left to say.
"You… you're ruthless!" Madam Qian shouted.
How did it end up like this?
Wen Nuan scoffed coldly, "You're just a scammer! Always taking advantage of others! I'll report everything you've done to the authorities. You think people won't find out just because you kept it quiet? Try me!"
Madam Qian couldn't argue anymore. She was exposed.
Wenran started running once again.
