Chapter 49: To My Daughter-in-law



"Why is it her..."

Shen Sisi muttered to herself, she really didn't expect to meet Xu Hongying in the black market.

If she hadn't been arguing with someone, Shen Sisi would have suspected that she was following her.

Xu Hongying, wearing a grey woolen hat and a gauze mask on her face, was being grabbed by a stall owner.

"You old woman, if you can't afford it, don't do it. You made my clothes dirty, pay me!"

Xu Hongying wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape, but she was no match for the stall owner.

She was anxious: "Who touched your clothes? Which eye did you see it with?"

"I saw it all with my own eyes...you want to leave...no way!" The old lady pulled Xu Hongying's clothes and asked her to pay compensation.

Xu Hongying refused to pay and kept saying that she did not touch it and that the boss was trying to extort money.

...

...

The two were in a stalemate and almost came to blows with each other.

Seeing them fighting, Shen Sisi shouted angrily: “Stop!”

She held Niuniu tightly with one hand and pushed away the crowd with the other. She was furious when she saw Xu Hongying was beaten so badly that her hat fell off and her hair was disheveled, and she was just about to be beaten.

Xu Hongying is usually domineering and capable at home, but why does she become a coward outside?

Seeing Shen Sisi, Xu Hongying was also stunned, and her pupils couldn't help but dilate.

"It's... it's you?"

Shen Sisi had a dark face, pulled her behind her, and then pushed the old lady away with her backhand.

She was so strong that she pushed the old lady back several steps and she almost fell to the ground.

"Where did you come from, little wild girl, to dare to hit me?"

The auntie was cursing and rolled up her sleeves to fight. Just as she was about to do so, Dong Xiaojiang showed up and stood beside Shen Sisi. The auntie immediately restrained herself.

Who living in this area doesn’t know Dong Xiaojiang?

His elder brother Cao Hua is the boss of the dock area, and she can't afford to offend him.

Who is this woman?

"Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?" the old lady asked with a red face and thick neck.

Shen Sisi’s weak body blocked Xu Hongying: “I am her family, what do you think?”

Xu Hongying's eyes sparkled and she was very surprised.

When she heard that it was her family, the auntie's attitude immediately became arrogant again: "Okay, since you are her family, then you should pay for her!"

"What compensation?"

"Pay compensation for the clothes..." The old lady picked up a long white coat and said, "She made my cashmere coat dirty. How can I sell it to others?"

Xu Hongying immediately jumped out and said, "You are slandering me. I didn't touch any of your clothes, let alone this one."

The old lady’s voice became even louder: “You said you didn’t touch it, so you didn’t touch it. You are such a scoundrel, old lady… I’m telling you, this is my latest model, pure cashmere, and it’s very expensive. If you don’t compensate me today, I will never let you go!”

"I, I'm not done with you either..."

The two people who had just been separated were about to fight again.

The alley was in chaos. No one was doing business and just stood there to watch the fun.

During this period, Shen Sisi didn't say a word, just staring at the cashmere coat, and then suddenly laughed.

"You...what are you laughing at?" the aunt asked in horror, looking at her as if she were a lunatic.

Shen Sisi said, “You said my aunt touched your clothes, so can you show us all in detail how my aunt touched it?”

The aunt looked alert: "What...what do you want to do?"

Shen Sisi had already made up her mind, but she remained calm and composed: "If you want me to pay you money, you have to convince me, right?"

After thinking about it for a while, the aunt realized that this was indeed the case.

At this time, Dong Xiaojiang also joined in the fun: "That's right, you keep asking people to pay compensation, but you don't tell us what happened. Isn't this extortion?"

Those who were watching the fun also started shouting.

The aunt couldn't hold back her expression, so she casually spread the clothes on the stall, with the collar facing inwards and the hem facing outwards: "Okay, then I'll show you how to do it."

She went around to the outside of the hem, imitating Xu Hongying's behavior, reaching out to touch and pick up the clothes, turning them over and over...

"Well, that's it..." The aunt spread her hands and acted it out halfheartedly.

Shen Sisi looked at the black stain on the clothes again, her eyes deep: "Are you sure?"

"Of course, that's how she looked around and got my clothes dirty."

Before Shen Sisi could say anything, Xu Hongying couldn't hold back anymore, and tears streamed down her face anxiously: "Don't listen to her nonsense, I didn't touch the clothes at all..."

The husband says he is right, the wife says she is right, and for a moment, no one knows who to believe.

At this time, Shen Sisi suddenly raised the corner of her mouth: “Okay, the case is solved.”

She took two steps forward and pointed at the black stains on her clothes.

"This stain was indeed put there by someone's hand, but it wasn't my aunt, it was you - the boss lady."

Just as the aunt was about to speak, Dong Xiaojiang rolled up his sleeves and warned her not to interrupt his sister Sisi.

"Little girl, don't just talk nonsense..."

Shen Sisi was not affected at all, and reached out to touch the dirty mark.

"Look, the marks near me are lighter and have obvious signs of being wiped. The handprints near the boss lady are darker and have a regular shape."

“Everyone, look…” Shen Sisi followed the trace and placed her finger in mid-air. She tried it several times. If she followed the direction of the trace, the posture should be - wiping towards her chest with her backhand.

Let me ask you, who would take clothes like this? Isn't that like putting your hands down?

Therefore, the stain can only stand if it came from the boss's direction.

Everyone rushed over to see the traces, and it was indeed true!

The old lady stammered, "I remembered it wrong. I put the clothes on the wrong way. Yes, the head was facing outwards just now."

Shen Sisi looked like she saw through everything but didn't say anything. She grabbed Xu Hongying's hand and said, "Look, everyone, my aunt's hands are clean, there's no dirt on them."

"On the contrary, it's you... The gaps between your nails are all black. If I'm not mistaken, you just touched coal and haven't washed your hands yet."

The aunt quickly hid her hands behind her back, but it was too late.

"If you still want to quibble, I don't mind asking the police to check and see if what I said is correct."

"You, you..." The aunt couldn't utter a word for a long time, and it was obvious that she felt guilty.

The truth is revealed!

The onlookers all showed expressions of understanding and gave thumbs up.

Especially Xu Hongying, the way she looked at her changed, and she thought to herself that Shen Sisi was not as annoying as the rumors said.

The aunt’s lie was exposed, and she was too embarrassed to stay any longer. She glared at Shen Sisi fiercely: “You are awesome…”

She started to pack up her stall and leave.

Seeing this, Shen Sisi said in a deep voice: “Did I let you go?”

"What? What else do you want?"

"I have wrongly accused my family and even beat them up. How can I settle this?"

Shen Sisi's voice wasn't loud, but her aura was so fierce that it was impossible to ignore her.

Aunt: “I’m sorry…”

Shen Sisi: "Just sorry?"

The aunt gnashed her teeth in anger, pulled out a silk scarf and stuffed it into Xu Hongying's hand: "Sister, I'm sorry for you. This silk scarf is my compensation to you, okay?"

Xu Hongying looked at the scarf. The bright red and green ones were too old-fashioned. She pointed at another white striped scarf and said, "I want that one. I want it for my daughter-in-law..."
