It was you who stole the bracelet! I was wondering why the bracelet was missing, and it turns out you stole it! " Zhou Zhou insisted that it was Jiang Li who stole the bracelet, and yelled at Jiang Li viciously.
Jiang Li didn't expect that the friend she played with in the afternoon would suddenly become so hateful. She hugged Ye Li and sobbed, "Mom, I didn't. I'm not a bad person who steals things."
"I believe Xiaoli didn't steal anything. We can't take children's words as the standard in this matter. They are still young and can't express some things clearly, which can easily lead to misunderstandings." Jiang Xun felt uncomfortable when he saw Jiang Li crying so sadly.
"Jiang Xun, you are really talking without any concern. It seems that it is not your family that lost something. How could my Zhou Zhou not be able to explain things clearly at this age? The one who should be unable to express himself clearly should be your Jiang Li!" Aunt Liu felt more proud as she saw Jiang Li crying so hard.
"Anyway, one of my bracelets is missing and the other is broken. You have to compensate me." Zhang Hui didn't argue with Ye Li and the others, but directly asked for money.
"We can't compensate you without clarifying the matter."
How could Ye Li possibly pay compensation? If he did, wouldn't that indirectly mean that he admitted that Jiang Li stole the bracelet?
"I want to ask a question, how did you know that Jiang Li stole the bracelet? How do you prove that the bracelet Jiang Li is wearing is yours?" Jiang Xun raised the question after listening to the conversation between both parties.
"I asked a silversmith to make a pair of bracelets for Zhang Hui, and I was the one who chose the peony pattern on them. Can you see if it's a peony pattern?" When Aunt Liu heard this question, she was not stumped at all and the answer came out immediately.
...
...
"There are many silver bracelets with peony patterns, and this is not the only logo. Are there any other unique logos?"
Jiang Xun's words stumped Aunt Liu. She didn't engrave anything on the bracelet in the first place, so what mark did she need to prove it?
"Since you can't prove that this bracelet belongs to you, please return it to me! I'm waiting for its real owner to come and claim it." Jiang Xun said.
Zhang Hui and Aunt Liu didn't expect Jiang Xun to use this trick, which really caught them off guard.
Seeing that he had not received any compensation and could not even prove the ownership of the silver bracelet, he suddenly became anxious.
"This is my bracelet! I don't need any proof!" Aunt Liu acted like a rogue.
"You don't need proof, but we do. If you can't produce evidence, we really can't let you take this bracelet away. What if it was lost by someone else? We can't take the responsibility if we give it to you." Ye Li said as he reached out to take back the bracelet that he had just returned to Zhang Hui.
"Stop! You are not allowed to snatch my mother's bracelet. This bracelet belongs to my mother. I put it on Jiang Li's left wrist with my own hands this afternoon!" Zhou Zhou saw that she could not keep the bracelet, so she hurriedly told the truth about what happened this afternoon.
"Congee!"
Zhang Hui immediately became anxious when she heard this, as Zhou Zhou's words revealed her true identity.
"Did you hear that! My Xiaoli didn't steal the bracelet. It was Zhou Zhou who put the bracelet on my Xiaoli's hand. And from Zhou Zhou's mouth we can learn that Zhou Zhou only gave Xiaoli one bracelet, not a pair." Ye Li took advantage of the victory to redress Jiang Li's injustice.
"No matter what, the bracelet was worn by Jiang Li, and it is a fact that it was broken. It is only natural to pay compensation for broken things!" Aunt Liu shamelessly asked Ye Li for money.
"Then it is even more impossible for us to pay compensation. The bracelet was given to Jiang Li by Zhou Zhou, and you wrongly accuse Jiang Li of stealing. This is obviously a false accusation. My Jiang Li has suffered such a great injustice for no reason, and you still want compensation? You can even say such things! It's good enough that we don't ask you to compensate for mental damages!" Ye Li glared at Aunt Liu with endless anger in his eyes.
"What do you mean by mental expense? Don't use these words to talk to me! You have to pay the money anyway. If you don't, no one can sleep tonight!" Aunt Liu waved her hand and sat directly on Ye Li's doorstep.
"You bad guy! You bully my sister. I'm going to beat you!" Jiang Hao saw Aunt Liu blocking the door of his house and threw the glass on the table at her angrily.
This action scared Ye Li and Jiang Xun. If the glass really hit Aunt Liu, it would not be just a matter of a few words.
Fortunately, Jiang Hao's throwing skills were not good enough and he didn't hit Aunt Liu. But Aunt Liu was frightened.
"You rascal, you dare to throw a glass at me! I'm going to beat you up!" Aunt Liu stood up and was about to pull Jiang Hao's ear, but Ye Li pushed her away. Jiang Xun immediately protected the two children.
"Aunt Liu, if a fight really breaks out, your whole family won't be able to beat Jiang Xun. Are you sure you still want to fight?" Ye Li narrowed his eyes and looked at the other party, full of warning.
"Mom, don't do it. It will be bad if you hurt yourself." Zhang Hui had heard her mother-in-law say that Jiang Xun was a retired soldier, so she quickly persuaded Aunt Liu to stop.
Aunt Liu was so angry that she was breathing heavily. She saw Jiang Hao standing opposite her, but she couldn't reach out to hit him. She felt very upset.
"You are all big bad guys! You bully our family! I will fight with you!" Seeing that the adults did not take action, Zhou Zhou shouted and rushed towards Jiang Hao.
"Zhou Zhou!" Zhang Hui was shocked, fearing that Jiang Xun would hurt Zhou Zhou.
Jiang Xun stretched out his hand and pressed it against Zhou Zhou's head. No matter how she waved her fist, she couldn't move a single hair of Jiang Hao.
Zhang Hui saw that she was completely at a disadvantage. She felt that this was a bad start. If she continued like this, who knows who would suffer in the end. So Zhang Hui backed out.
"Zhou Zhou, come back!"
After Zhang Hui pulled Zhou Zhou back, she leaned over to her mother-in-law and whispered, "Mom, why don't we just forget about this matter. I'll just consider myself unlucky."
When she heard that Zhang Hui was going to give up, Aunt Liu refused to admit it. She didn't know that Zhang Hui and Zhou Zhou had colluded to cause trouble, and she really thought that Jiang Li had broken Zhang Hui's bracelet. When she heard that Zhang Hui had backed down, she directly taught her: "Zhang Hui, if you give in now, you will be bullied by her family for the rest of your life. Since they are unwilling to pay compensation, call the police directly. Let the police handle it! I still don't believe that there is no law in the world! You broke someone else's things and didn't pay compensation!"
Aunt Liu felt that this matter was entirely the fault of the Ye Li family, so she felt justified in calling the police and had no intention of backing down.
Seeing Aunt Liu was so confident about calling the police, Ye Li thought for a moment and pulled Jiang Hao and Jiang Li aside and asked in a low voice: "Tell me the truth, is it really the bracelet Zhou Zhou gave you? Who was it that deformed the bracelet? You are not allowed to lie to your mother, understand?"
Seeing Ye Li taking the child aside for questioning, Aunt Liu became even more convinced that the problem was with Ye Li's family.
