Chapter 12 Apology Received, But No Forgiveness
Wu Hongyan subconsciously looked down at her trouser pockets. Seeing the bulging pockets, she couldn't remember what she had in them.
The conductor also noticed it and asked, "Did you put your wallet in your trouser pocket?"
Wu Hongyan suddenly remembered something, her whole body froze, and she swallowed hard, "No, it's, it's a handkerchief."
She suddenly remembered that before she went out, the button on her bag fell off, and she was worried that her wallet would be lost if she kept it in, so she took it out of the bag and put it in her trouser pocket.
The trouser pockets are deep and there is a bag covering it, so it shouldn't be lost.
But when she found that there was no wallet in her bag, she forgot about it in a hurry.
The ticket seller has to see so many people every day, and he has a very accurate eye for people. He can tell at a glance that there is something wrong with this person.
"It doesn't look like a handkerchief to me. But whether it is or not, take it out and have a look at it."
"You have wronged the girl, you must clear her name."
Yu Hui gave the ticket seller a thumbs up and called her the judge of public transportation.
Wu Hongyan bit her lower lip tightly, not knowing what to do for a moment.
She must not take out the things in her trouser pockets. If she did, she would be completely embarrassed on the bus.
Seeing her like this, Lin Xueru looked at her other two good sisters, and they all knew where Wu Hongyan's wallet was.
In her heart, she secretly blamed her for being too careless. She asked her to look carefully but didn't even check her trouser pockets. As a result, they joined her in wrongly accusing Captain Gu's wife, and they might even be embarrassed along with her.
"Ahem..." Ye Xueru cleared her throat twice and put on some acting skills. "Hongyan, didn't you take out a comb from your bag and comb your hair while waiting for the bus? Maybe that's when you fell on the bus stop. When the bus arrives at the next stop, let's get off and walk back to look for it."
"Yes, yes, yes, it must have been at that time that he fell off the bus stop." Yu Jiao also said, praising Ye Xuelian in her heart for her quick reaction and good acting skills.
"Oh... okay." Wu Hongyan reacted and nodded quickly, feeling grateful to her good sister for helping her out.
"We'll be arriving at the station soon." Zhang Ying pointed to the platform in front.
Not to mention the conductor, even the other people on the bus saw through the four people's poor acting skills.
"You know what, she's worthy of being from the art troupe. She can really act."
"Yes, I have to write to the art troupe and ask if they have wrongly accused me and are just putting on a show to fool me."
"They've wronged the little girl, and they're trying to fool us all with their acting. These four girls have serious ideological problems. We must write to them and have a proper talk with them."
The people in the car were talking to each other, and Lin Xuelian and the others turned pale.
It seems that they can no longer fool people. If they really want to fool people, then they will all be punished after writing so many letters to the art troupe.
The three of them were cursing Wu Hongyan in their hearts. She was going to cause them great harm.
Yu Jiao didn't want to be punished, so she reached into Wu Hongyan's trouser pocket and took the thing out.
She opened her palm and thought, what else could it be but the cowhide wallet that Wu Hongyan's cousin brought back from Shanghai?
Wu Hongyan stared at Yu Jiao in shock. Yu Jiao didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, she said in surprise, "Hongyan, isn't this your wallet?"
"You're such a fool! I told you to look carefully just now, but you insisted on looking through that broken bag." Zhang Ying had a dark face and spoke very rudely.
Lin Xuelian shook her head. "Hongyan, what can I say to you? Since you have misunderstood me, you should apologize to me right away."
"Just apologize quickly." Liu Qian didn't even dare to raise her head when she spoke. It was really embarrassing.
Wu Hongyan felt aggrieved when her good sister said this to her. She was silent for a long time before she whispered with red eyes, "I'm sorry..."
Yu Hui: "Speak louder, I didn't hear you."
"That's right, the sound is too soft, like a mosquito, who can hear it?" others in the car also said.
Wu Hongyan raised her head, glared at Yu Hui with red eyes, and said loudly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
Now she should be satisfied!
She had never been so embarrassed in her life.
"What are you sorry about?" Yu Hui asked.
Wu Hongyan: “…”
Lin Xuelian and the others just wanted to get this matter over with quickly, so they urged Wu Hongyan to follow Yu Hui.
"I'm sorry for the misunderstanding..."
"It's not a misunderstanding, it's an injustice." Yu Hui corrected.
Wu Hongyan's tears fell, "I'm sorry for wrongly accusing you, I'm sorry..."
When he said the last word, he was crying.
Yu Hui let her go and glanced at the other three. "It's your turn."
"We what?" Lin Xuelian was confused.
"Apologize!" Yu Hui said matter-of-factly, "You and she just wronged me, so you should apologize too."
"We are..." Lin Xuelian wanted to explain, but when she opened her mouth she didn't know how to say it.
The three of them looked at each other, and finally had no choice but to apologize to Yu Hui.
"I accept your apology, but I don't forgive you." They would wrong themselves, not only because they were arrogant, but also because they were prejudiced against her.
Maybe she didn't know them, but they knew her and had heard some things about her, so when they lost their wallet, the first thing they thought of was that they were a thief.
Why should she forgive such an arrogant person?
"Then can you still write letters?" Yu Jiao asked quickly.
Yu Hui shrugged without saying anything, and the four of them were all worried.
The bus stopped at the station and the four people got off in shame. Even though they had paid for the tickets to go into the city, they were too embarrassed to stay on the bus.
In addition to them, some other people got off the bus, leaving a seat empty, so Yu Hui sat down.
As soon as she sat down, the young girl sitting next to her gave her a thumbs up and said, "Sister, you are really awesome! If I were caught and accused of being a thief, I wouldn't be so panicked that I wouldn't know what to do."
Even if you are not a thief, you will feel panicked and unable to defend yourself when faced with accusations from others.
"We haven't done anything, so why should we panic?" Yu Hui smiled. "Whoever suspects should provide evidence. If someone says you stole something, ask them to produce substantial evidence, otherwise it's slander."
"Never fall into the trap of self-proof." This was the conclusion she came up with in her previous life.
The little girl looked at her with more admiration and nodded vigorously.
Yu Hui chatted with the girl all the way. After entering the city, the girl got off the bus, while Yu Hui sat all the way to the State-owned Store Station.
At this time, the state-owned stores were still as busy as the morning market, packed with people.
Relying on the original owner's memory, Yu Hui found the counter selling milk powder.
There were long queues in front of other counters, but there were very few people in front of the counter selling milk powder. This might be because milk powder was expensive and few people had tickets. Unless the mother really had no milk and could not find anyone else to help feed the baby, not many people would be willing to buy milk powder to feed their child.
Yu Hui stood in front of the counter and took a look, and saw the milk powder that Beibei had been drinking on the shelf.
"Comrade, please help me get two bags of three-sheep milk powder." Yu Hui said to the salesperson who was picking between his fingernails.
The saleswoman with curly hair glanced at her, slowly took two bags of milk powder from the shelf, and placed them on the counter. "Four yuan, two milk powder coupons."
