"Who said he was motherless?"

Zhou Sese opened her mouth.

Most people looked over subconsciously.

Including the stars held in the hands of their caregivers.

The moment Xingxing saw Zhou Sese, she shrank her neck in fear.

The caretaker let go of Xingxing, walked straight to Zhou Sese, and said with a sneer, "So, you are his mother?"

Xingxing shouted from behind, "No, she is not my mother. She has nothing to do with me. Let her go."

The caretaker ignored Xingxing's words and said, "Since you admit that you are his mother, it is the parents' fault for not educating their children. Your child stole my feces, and I caught him tonight. I don't know how much he stole before I caught him. Will you take care of this matter?"

Zhou Sese nodded without hesitation, "I'll take care of it. I'll compensate you for your losses."

Xingxing was stunned and dumbfounded.

When other parents heard about the compensation, they came over.

The caretaker snorted, "If that's the case, then let's settle the accounts. Three days ago, my manure was full, but now it's so much less. You should give me ten dollars for each child."

There were eleven children in total who participated in stealing manure tonight.

Each child’s family pays ten dollars.

The total is one hundred and ten yuan.

Wow! That’s enough to cover four months’ salary for a stable job in the government.

Hearing this.

The others gasped, "Ten yuan, why don't you just go and rob it? I'm afraid all this shit you've piled up isn't even worth ten yuan. You should have some conscience!"

We admit our child did something wrong and we are very sorry. We are doing our best to cooperate with you in discussing compensation, but you can't ask for too much."

The caretaker chuckled and said, "If you don't want to pay the money, that's fine. Then we can go to the police station and talk to the police.

At worst, we'll just let your child stay in there for a few days, and when he comes out, he'll be a minor labor camp inmate. He won't be able to go to school, find a job, or get married, and you'll be the ones crying!"

The legal education efforts at that time were not strong enough, and when some parents heard this, fear was clearly revealed in their eyes.

Zhou Sese's hand was suddenly pulled.

She lowered her head.

She saw the stars that had moved to her side without knowing when.

Xingxing looked up at Zhou Sese and whispered, "Go home. I will take responsibility for my mistakes. At worst, I will go to the police station and stay there. I will definitely not implicate you."

Zhou Sese asked back, "Are you afraid of getting me into trouble, or are you afraid of getting your father into trouble?"

Xingxing didn't say anything.

Zhou Sese put one hand on Xingxing's shoulder and said, "I'm just a small vendor. You can't say you're implicating me. If you're afraid of implicating your father, you're totally wrong. If your father was afraid of getting involved, he would never have adopted you two brothers and sisters."

Xingxing blinked, her eyes slightly red, and two bags of tears were about to burst out.

He turned his head away.

Wiped away the tears vigorously.

Then he turned to Zhou Sese and said, "But ten yuan is too much. I have stolen three times in total, and I haven't stolen more than 30 cents worth of feces. He is blackmailing you."

Zhou Sese pinched his cheek. "Even if you stole a dollar's worth of feces, do you think that when you are caught, you can just pay a dollar and everything will be fine? Xingxing, if that's the case, then there is no cost for committing a crime."

The stars seem to understand, but not quite.

Zhou Sese patted his head and walked up to the caretaker, "Can I talk to you for a moment?"

The caretaker stiffened his neck and said, "No need. Just say whatever you want to say. There's nothing to hide."

Zhou Sese smiled and said, "Okay, then I said it, the regulations stipulate that the manure site must be at least 100 meters away from the living area, and you didn't do it.

During the composting process, the gases produced are flammable and explosive, so they must be kept away from open flames. But you built a kitchen in the yard, which doesn't comply with regulations. Finally..."

Zhou Sese approached the caretaker and said in a low voice, "Brother, you can't let me pay for the feces you smuggled out."

The caretaker was shocked, looked at Zhou Sese in disbelief, and asked her with gritted teeth, "How do you know?"

Zhou Sese looked at him with a smile, "We will never shirk our responsibilities or the compensation we should pay, but we can't admit what we are not responsible for.

If you feel that this matter must be handled through the police in order to obtain a satisfactory outcome, then fine! But why wait until daybreak? The police station is open 24 hours a day, so you can go now.

The caretaker stared at Zhou Sese and spit out a mouthful of saliva angrily, "Okay, you are really good!"

Zhou Sese just smiled and said nothing.

The caretaker gritted his teeth and said, "Then it's one dollar per person, not a penny less. If you ask for even a penny less, we'll meet at the police station!"

Others paid.

After all, the contrast between ten dollars and one dollar is too huge. They are afraid that the caregiver will change his mind, so they can't wait to take the money and leave.

Zhou Sese also handed over a dollar.

The caretaker held a banknote, stared at Zhou Sese, and whispered, "Sister, no matter what hatred or grudge we have, from the moment I took this dollar, we have nothing to do with each other. No matter what you know or what you have heard, please forget it."

Zhou Sese nodded with a fake smile, "Of course."

On the way back.

Zhou Sese walked with a limp.

Without saying a word.

After trying many times, Xingxing finally mustered up the courage to say, "I'm sorry!"

Zhou Sese said lightly, "You're not sorry for me. The person you're sorry for is yourself, your dead father, and your current father. Xingxing, why do you want to steal manure to make money?"
