Chapter 124 She is the one who suffered the most!
Old Man Cen gave Old Lady Cen a warning look.
Old Mrs. Cen opened her mouth, but had to swallow the rest of her words back into her stomach.
Of course, she also knew that this could not be said casually.
Otherwise, if the second branch develops a rebellious mentality and refuses to work honestly, it will be a loss for the Cen family.
"Grandpa, but I see that my eldest aunt is so arrogant, she doesn't seem to be talking nonsense. Look, she dares to sneak into my room to steal things in the middle of the night. Doesn't this mean she doesn't care about our second house at all?" Cen Yan went on to tell the story of Cen Fang's theft.
When Old Man Cen heard about this, his sharp eyes flashed with cold light and he looked at Cen Fang fiercely.
Cen Fang's first reaction was to lower his head.
But she then raised her head again: "Dad, I didn't steal anything, she is slandering me!"
"I didn't slander my aunt. Even if there was no light in the house, and the moonlight wasn't as bright as in the yard, I could still see my aunt. We are all family. Even if I didn't see her face, her figure couldn't lie. Besides, my aunt was hiding in the toilet late at night and was caught by my aunt and her friends. And I just blew my aunt's mouth, but I didn't say that I caught the thief's left arm and left the scar. My aunt actually mentioned her left arm..."
Cen Yan said, "All signs prove that the thief is none other than my aunt!"
"That's right, Dad. I can testify that Cen Yan didn't lie at all. The eldest sister said that she went to the toilet at night, but the time from when we came out to when she hid in the toilet was long enough. We were the last ones to check the toilet, and just as we were about to go over, she came out and pretended to go to the toilet in the middle of the night. How could this not be because she was guilty? She was actually hiding in there, and she came out on her own initiative because she was afraid of being caught by us!" Cen Ying also said.
"Just now we said we wanted to check if the eldest sister had any injuries, and we did not mention where the injury was. However, the eldest aunt herself said that there was no injury on her left arm at all. This is the biggest flaw!" Gao immediately agreed.
"That's right. I can also testify to that." Yu said briefly.
"Dad, Mom, my third brother and I were also watching there." Cen Dajiang also said.
"When my eldest aunt ran out of our second house, my father happened to meet her. He recognized her at first sight. It was my eldest aunt. My father would never lie." Cen Yan added.
"Yes, yes! My second brother has always been the most honest person. He would never tell a lie!" Cen Dajiang immediately expressed his agreement.
Naturally, his behavior earned him an angry glare from Cen Fang.
Cen Yan curled the corner of his mouth sarcastically.
Only at times like this would her uncle remember to say something good about her father.
While they were talking here, Old Man Cen and Old Lady Cen were listening on the side.
Old Man Cen looked at Cen Fang solemnly, his face showing undisguised disappointment.
Old Mrs. Cen was very angry with them.
"Nonsense! You are all talking nonsense! Xiaoying, what's wrong with you? She's your own sister, how dare you slander her like this?!" Old Mrs. Cen was so angry that her chest heaved. She pointed at Cen Ying, her face full of disappointment.
"Mom, I'm not talking nonsense. I never talk nonsense in this family. I am talking now because I really can't stand my elder sister being so shameless that she even goes into the younger generation's room to steal things! I'm afraid there's no need to say what she stole. It must be the bracelet that you sold to Cen Yan for ten taels of silver last time! Big sister, did you deliberately lower the price in order to cheat the bracelet from mom last time? As a result, Cen Yan asked for it, and you couldn't save face, and you were really short of money, so you had to sell it to Cen Yan for ten taels of silver first. But your plan was to wait until you came back this time, steal the bracelet while Cen Yan was asleep, and then sell it at a high price! Is that right?!" Cen Ying questioned loudly.
"No, no! That bracelet is only worth ten taels! You are slandering me!"
When Cen Fang's thoughts were hit, she denied it repeatedly out of guilt.
She quickly ran to Old Lady Cen, grabbed her hand, and pleaded, "Mom, they all bullied me! They must want to drive me away because they saw that I was married, and they don't want me to come back to see you and Dad!"
"Sister, it's better for you not to come back. Every time you come back, you bring walnuts and dates. Who can eat them? Instead, every time you leave, you take food and money to your husband's house... Haha, and you say you're visiting our parents? Who are you trying to fool? You're no better than our Han'er. Although the gifts we sent last time were fakes and we did something wrong, it at least proves that he cares about his parents and his whole family. He's just short of money and can't buy good things. He just wants to make everyone happy..." When Gao heard Cen Fang's explanation, she took the opportunity to clear her son's name.
"That's right! Yin'e is right. Although Han'er did not do things in a decent way, he still has good intentions!" Cen Dajiang also quickly agreed.
"Shut up! I don't allow you to talk about your eldest sister like that! You are so disrespectful! Maybe Cen Yan drugged her!" Old Mrs. Cen couldn't bear to hear this, and immediately stared at her eldest son and daughter-in-law and scolded them.
"Mom, don't you know clearly? They are holding a grudge against me for exposing the fact that Han Ge'er bought fake goods last time! But I said at that time that I didn't want to do anything to Han Ge'er. I was just afraid that you would go out with a fake bracelet and be discovered and laughed at!" Seeing that Old Lady Cen was willing to support her, Cen Fang immediately said.
"How could I not know? I know the twists and turns in their minds better than anyone else!" Old Mrs. Cen patted her daughter's hand soothingly.
When Cen Yan saw Old Lady Cen's attitude, she knew that Cen Fang's theft tonight could only be lightly exposed.
However, the jade bracelet was something that Cen Fang couldn't steal even if she searched the whole house, so she didn't care.
But other things are not so easy to say.
"Aunt, I have already sold the jade bracelet. You said before that the bracelet was worth more than ten taels of silver, so I spent ten taels of silver to buy it! But who knew that I only sold it for one tael of silver after I asked someone to send it to the county town to sell it! Aunt, I have suffered a huge loss! You should quickly return the remaining nine taels of silver to me! Otherwise, I will go to the authorities and accuse you of stealing!" said Cen Yan.
"What? One tael? Sold for one tael?" Cen Fang was stunned when he heard the number. He kept repeating it, not even noticing Cen Yan's words that he was going to sue the authorities...
She let out a series of screams.
A bracelet worth one hundred taels was actually sold for only one tael by that damn girl Cen Yan?
She is the one who suffered the most!
It turns out that the bracelet has been sold!
Not only did she fail to get the bracelet, but she was caught red-handed tonight!
The feeling of not being able to steal the chicken but losing the rice instead, turns out to be so bitter!
"You said you wanted to sue the authorities?" After a while, Cen Fang finally reacted.
“That’s right!”
"She dares!" Cen Yan and Old Lady Cen spoke at the same time.
Old Lady Cen glared at Cen Yan fiercely, "If you dare to report to the authorities, I will kick out your entire second family!"
