"One hundred yuan?"
The short-haired woman paused for a moment, then quickly retorted.
"Is this gold?! You're asking for an exorbitant price! What proof do you have that my Dongdong ate it?"
No matter how she tried to deny it, Shen Qianqian spoke rapidly: "Evidence one: your son is holding a Ferrero Rocher chocolate wrapper; evidence two: your son still has some unswallowed chocolate in his mouth; evidence three: there's no one else here besides you. Everything was fine before, but when you came to my house, my things were stolen. I reasonably suspect that this was a premeditated theft!"
I'm going to sue the police!
What constitutes planned theft?
Didn't her son take two chocolates?
Is it really necessary to report such a trivial matter to the police?
As expected of someone raised in the countryside, they're just not presentable.
The short-haired woman thought dismissively, "It's just a chocolate. It's not like it's anything expensive. I'll go to the mall and buy you another one later."
Shen Qianqian sneered: "Since you're willing to return them, that's good. I still have fifteen Ferrero Rocher chocolates in my schoolbag, which my mother sent to me from Hong Kong. Since you're not willing to pay for them, then give me exactly the same ones. Otherwise, I'll report you to the police for burglary!"
Ferrero Rocher? And it has to come from Hong Kong Island? Isn't that some kind of delicacy? "Who knows if what you're saying is true..."
The woman pursed her lips and tried to pull her son over.
Shen Qianqian didn't give her a chance and kicked her directly.
The woman rolled up her sleeves to hit him, but someone grabbed her from behind.
"Sister-in-law! What Qianqian said is true. If you can't buy the chocolate, just pay her back!"
Wu Yunhua glanced at Chen Qianqian with guilt and embarrassment, then looked away.
Today, her mother and sister-in-law brought their nephew uninvited. Before they knew it, the nephew ran into Qianqian and Miaomiao's room.
At the time, she thought that the other person had become well-behaved and quiet, and was no longer yelling. After all, her nephew used to be like someone with ADHD, and liked to bully Miaomiao.
I never expected them to do something like this behind my back!
It's all her fault. If only she had noticed sooner.
Thinking of this, Wu Yunhua anxiously asked, "Qianqian, see if you're missing anything. I'll have my sister-in-law make it up to you later."
Sister-in-law Wu glared at Wu Yunhua, "Why are you always siding with outsiders!"
"Mommy, Grandma, help me! I feel so bad, please help me!"
"Let go of my grandson! He's just a child!"
Wu Yunhua's elderly mother walked over, her steps unsteady.
Shen Qianqian wouldn't listen to anyone: "If you want him, give me back the chocolate. All talk and no action! I'll let him go when you return it. Don't try to fool me with cheap stuff from a department store."
Sister-in-law Wu was dumbfounded, realizing that she was serious.
"Where am I supposed to get you Hong Kong chocolates right now?"
They might be able to find it at a big shopping mall, but they didn't want to make the trip. It was just a few chocolates, what was so special about them? These things were dark and bitter, not tasty at all, and ridiculously expensive!
It's all this sister-in-law's fault. She's useless at everything, but she's number one at siding with outsiders. She tries to curry favor with this ex-wife's daughter.
Sister-in-law Wu glared fiercely at Wu Hua.
Shen Qianqian ignored their grumbling, grabbed Wu Dong and left, then turned back and shouted at Wu's sister-in-law, "I told you, I never joke. Your son is definitely going to have a day at the police station today. He stole my things and thought he could get away with it? No way!"
After saying that, he dragged the wailing Wu Dong out the door.
At that moment, everyone in the military compound was cooking. Most of them were at home, and when they heard the noise, they all came out to see what was happening.
"What's wrong?"
"Hey, isn't that Minister Shen's daughter, Qianqian?"
Who is she carrying?
"It seems to be Teacher Wu's..."
Shen Qianqian didn't leave immediately; she stayed behind and carefully explained to each room why she did what she did.
"This one in my hand..."
"He took my chocolate. It was sent to me from Hong Kong Island by my mother, whom I hadn't seen for thirteen years. I usually couldn't bear to eat it..."
"Mingming, give him all of it!"
That's so embarrassing. That's so embarrassing.
Sister-in-law Wu was extremely embarrassed. This area was full of cadre families; what would others think of them if they found out her son had stolen something?! How could she possibly ask for help?
Sister-in-law Wu quickly stopped Shen Qianqian and whispered, "I'll give you a hundred yuan, just let my son go!"
Shen Qianqian successfully obtained the compensation and emptied the fat man's pockets of all the items he had hidden. The Wu family members, feeling embarrassed to stay any longer, sneaked away.
"Qianqian, I'm sorry, I didn't know Dongdong went to your room..."
"Is one hundred yuan enough? If not, I'll give you more."
Wu Yunhua felt very guilty. The things her nephew stole were actually valuable items sent by Qianqian's mother. She hadn't paid much attention to them when they were given to Miaomiao, but she never knew they were so precious. Shen Qianqian shook her head: "That's enough."
How could she not know Wu Yunhua's situation? She was a housewife, and her husband's money was still managed by his own mother. She had to ask her mother every day when buying groceries. She probably only saved a penny or two from buying groceries!
She's not Harpagon or Grandet!
But Wu Yunhua felt guilty, so at dinner she took out the money she had saved for a long time to buy chicken to make soup, and gave both chicken legs to Shen Qianqian.
Grandma Lin coughed twice.
Remind them that there is an elderly person here.
Shen Qianqian pretended not to see it and put a chicken leg in Shen Miaomiao's bowl.
Grandma Lin was very angry, but she never acted aggressively in front of her son.
