Chapter 151: No chance
After Jiang Xin took out the invoice, she immediately curled her lips.
I looked down at the contents on the invoice.
The price of those five skirts was exactly six hundred and two yuan.
The kind without even a penny rounded off.
There's even a product number for each skirt on it.
It just so happened that those skirts didn’t even have the tags taken off, so any pair they were matched would be fine.
Moreover, even if Fu's mother took off all the tags on those skirts,
There is a solution.
In this day and age, there is no other way. If you take the tag off the clothes, you can only leave it in this room.
It's only been a short time, and they haven't had time to deal with it. If they search the house, they will definitely find it.
When the time comes, you can put a pair of tags and directly know the price of each piece of clothing.
After Jiang Xin finished reading the invoice, she directly handed it to the police officer standing next to her.
Then he said:
"Here are the invoices for those skirts."
"I have kept them all in good condition. The five skirts above were bought at the same time, so they are all on the same invoice."
"The police are here today, so I'll ask them to help me be a witness and confirm that the amount on this invoice is really 602 yuan."
"This is the total value of the five skirts. If you don't believe it, you can check to see if this invoice is genuine."
In this era, there is no possibility of forgery.
Therefore, the invoice that Jiang Xin holds in her hand is eighty percent authentic.
After taking a look, the police officer said to Fu's mother and her family members with a cold face:
"It is clearly written on the invoice that the total price of these five skirts is six hundred and two dollars."
"If you still have any questions, you can come forward and take a look."
After hearing what the police said, Fu's mother and her family members were all shocked.
Unexpectedly, those tattered skirts were actually worth more than 600 yuan.
Mother Fu thought of what she had just said, that she would only return four skirts, and give the remaining skirt to her niece to wear for her blind date tomorrow.
She will pay for the dress.
If the price is discounted like this, then basically, the price of each skirt is more than one hundred yuan, making her have to bear such a huge cost for no reason.
It's a bit of a fraud!
Mother Fu regretted her decision instantly. After all, she really had no money on hand now.
Moreover, although she has been supporting her parents' family over the years, there are ways to do so.
No matter what, this money must be spent wisely.
Over the years, the things that Fu's mother bought for her parents' home were basically necessities.
Like this dress, in Fu's mother's eyes, it is just a dress. If she spends such a huge price on it, it is really too stupid.
This more than one hundred yuan can be used as grocery money for her parents' home for half a year.
Wouldn't it be better to eat a few more meals of pork ribs? For her, it is simply not worth it to go into debt of more than a hundred dollars just for a skirt.
The time when Fu's mother hesitated.
Her mother from her natal side and her sister-in-law from her natal side thought about it and decided that they would take advantage of the situation if they could.
He spoke directly to the police comrade:
"Since that's what has been agreed upon, then why not do as my eldest sister-in-law said? We will return four of the five skirts, and the remaining one will be used by my daughter for her blind date tomorrow."
"As for the loss, let my eldest sister-in-law compensate for it. After all, they are all family, and they can afford a few hundred yuan."
After all, they had just weighed it quickly in their minds.
If these skirts were really priced that high, they would not be able to afford the compensation if they took them down.
At that time, if their family is implicated because of this, it would be a loss. We cannot be greedy for such a small thing and cause their family's entire life to fall apart.
They still understand this simple truth.
It would be better to just return the skirts to them. At least one of them is enough for them to wear.
Moreover, Fu's mother took the initiative to say that she would pay for the price of the dress.
They got a skirt worth hundreds of dollars for free. Why not take advantage of this bargain?
Moreover, it is true that their eldest daughter will need this skirt for her blind date tomorrow.
You can't go to visit someone wearing tattered clothes, otherwise you will be laughed at.
Moreover, if the blind date partner looks down on their family, he or she will not respect their family in the future.
Even if they wanted to marry their daughter to a wealthy family, they would let her help her parents in the future.
However, the premise is that their daughter has the final say in that family.
If a daughter has no say and cannot control the financial power after getting married, then her marriage is in vain.
Therefore, they must be careful in this regard and cannot make any mistakes.
It is very necessary to have a beautiful skirt to support the occasion.
It just so happens that someone is paying for it now, so why not do it?
Originally, when Mrs. Fu didn't know the price of these clothes, she looked very confident, thinking that it was just a skirt, and even if she took one off, Jiang Xin wouldn't be able to say anything.
After all, Jiang Xin had no evidence to prove the value of the skirt, it was right there.
Mother Fu’s plan was a good one, but unfortunately, there is always someone better than you.
Who would have thought that Jiang Xin could actually take out the invoice for the skirt while she was out.
It's simply too outrageous!
I'm afraid any normal person wouldn't do this, right?
If, it wasn't for Fu's mother stealing Jiang Xin's clothes just on a whim, otherwise, Fu's mother would really suspect that Jiang Xin was setting a trap for her on purpose and waiting for her to fall into it.
At this moment, Fu's mother was instantly panicked.
The answer was expected, and Jiang Xin didn't look shocked at all.
After hearing what the sister-in-law from Mother Fu's family said, she spoke directly and turned to Mother Fu and said:
"You heard what your sister-in-law said. Since you said it, I'm not such a stingy person. I can give you a skirt."
"But, as you all know, those skirts of mine are all brand new, without the tags removed."
"If you want it, you have to pay me the original price. Just consider it as the dress I sold to you."
Coincidentally, this way, you can also take the opportunity to make some money.
Why not?
It just so happened that the styles of those skirts were not what Jiang Xin liked. Moreover, looking at the expression of Mother Fu, one could feel that she was not particularly willing to give the money for the skirts to her niece from her mother's family.
After all, no one wants to be the sucker!
But, who made her say it so early? It's too late to regret now.
Besides, one look at her family members tells you that they are all difficult to deal with. If she were to go back on her word now, there would probably be some quarrels.
In fact, this matter, in the final analysis, no matter how it escalates, is related to family conflicts.
So, if Jiang Xin agrees to transfer this skirt at the original price, there is nothing wrong with it.
Even if it is transferred, it will not change the crime of burglary committed by Fu's mother.
After Jiang Xin finished speaking, Fu's sister-in-law nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he said to his eldest daughter, who had been hiding in the corner and remained silent since Jiang Xin and her group entered the house:
"Daniel, did you hear me? Hurry up and get those skirts out."
"We have to return it to the owner. When the time comes, pick out the skirt you like best. We'll keep one and let your aunt pay for it."
When Fu's mother's sister-in-law said this, her tone was very sarcastic.
After all, I'm still a little angry.
After all, originally, there were five skirts, and now she has to return four of them. How could she not be angry!
It's just a waste of joy!
When he looked at Jiang Xin again, there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Because they had never seen Jiang Xin in person, the moment Jiang Xin came in, they just thought of Jiang Xin as a stranger they didn't know.
In the end, after talking for a long time, they finally realized that Jiang Xin was Fu Yu's new wife.
This becomes much more interesting.
Fu's sister-in-law and her mother looked at Jiang Xin with scrutiny. After all, they felt that although this little girl looked young, she was a ruthless person.
Otherwise, how could it be considered burglary if Fu's mother secretly took a few pieces of her clothes?
Is this a joke?
They suddenly felt that Mother Fu seemed to be too easy to bully. If it were their family, they would have beaten her up to see if she would dare to do it again next time.
Fu's mother had an even more weird look on her face as she looked at Jiang Xin. She didn't expect that. Of course, she knew her own daughter well. After all, she had raised her by her side for so many years, so she knew very well what kind of personality she had. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so domineering in the Fu family for so many years.
Not only that, she also controls the family's finances. Otherwise, if Mr. Fu had any independent mind, he would not let his daughter-in-law manage the money and secretly support her family behind his back.
As a result, now, he feels more and more frustrated. He can't even handle his daughter-in-law, and now, he is being tricked by others. Isn't he easy to bully?
Looking at Mother Fu now, with her honest appearance, it makes me feel ashamed just thinking about it.
I've never heard of an old woman who is afraid of her daughter-in-law. If this were to be told to others, people in the surrounding villages would laugh at her.
Fu's mother from her mother's family and her sister-in-law from her mother's family have different thoughts and ideas in their minds.
Anyway, there is only one purpose. In their hearts, they are all weighing whether Mother Fu will still be of use to their family in the future.
If so, it remains to be considered whether the mother-daughter relationship is severed or not.
If, if she could still give money to support their family like she did before, as long as the stigma of burglary was not made too big, their family could pretend that this incident had never happened.
Anyway, according to Mother Fu's personality, as long as their family gives her a little bit of sweetness.
Fu's mother would immediately lick him like a dog.
Moreover, more money will be given to their family soon after.
So, after such a long time, they are no longer afraid of Mother Fu and are afraid that she will really give up and ignore them.
Basically, it's just a matter of moving your mouth.
That's why they are so fearless.
However, although they had some opinions about Jiang Xin, they felt that Jiang Xin had already married Fu Yu no matter what, so in name, Jiang Xin was Fu Yu's wife and a member of the Fu family.
Logically speaking, she shouldn't be so stingy.
It was just a few skirts. Fu's mother took her clothes secretly without her consent.
However, for someone like her to directly call the police and take the case to court was indeed too petty.
It's so shameful!
People in the surrounding villages have lived for so many years, half of their lives have passed, and they have never heard of anyone calling the police to arrest their old lady just because of a few skirts!
It's simply too disrespectful!
Otherwise, if Jiang Xin was someone who was easy to bully and chose to swallow her anger after knowing that her clothes were stolen, wouldn't their family get more than they do now?
Then, if all five skirts could fall into their hands, they would be able to earn a lot more income.
Especially in recent times, their family is particularly short of money.
Otherwise, their family wouldn't be so anxious to marry off their eldest daughter, who just turned 18 years old.
It's because the eldest son in the family is getting married, and there are so many things that require money. Basically, the family's savings have been emptied.
If Jiang Xin hadn't called the police and resold those skirts, six hundred yuan would have been enough to support their family for a long time.
That's totally fine, I can live a very comfortable life.
It’s a pity that Jiang Xin didn’t even give them this opportunity.
