Chapter 273: You are the one who is stupid, how can you blame others?

I guess Feng Yanyue can't take care of this matter!

However, Jiujiu looked at Zhou Shijin with a look that said "how can't I do anything about it?"

Jishidiang was the medicine boy who witnessed how Zhou Shijin smashed the bracelet. Seeing Jiujiu fighting for Xia Xiaoyun, he protected Xia Xiaoyun very much. Zhou Shijin was particularly afraid of Jiujiu, so he had no scruples.

He mustered up the courage to defend Xia Xiaoyun and said, "Ms. Zhou, your bracelet was not broken by Xia Xiaoyun at all. You broke it yourself."

"You shouldn't let Xia Xiaoyun pay for it."

"It's your fault."

The medicine boy's voice was not loud, but everyone around heard it.

"What's going on?"

"Didn't they say that the little peasant girl bumped into Miss Zhou and broke her bracelet?"

"How come Miss Zhou broke the bracelet herself again?"

The onlookers looked confused, and several of them had no interest in eating the melon seeds in their hands.

"Why wasn't she the one who broke it?" Zhou Shijin pointed at Xia Xiaoyun angrily and said, "It was her. She broke it."

"If she hadn't turned around suddenly, would the bracelet in my hand have fallen off?"

"I..." Xia Xiaoyun was so frightened by Zhou Shijin's attitude that she dared not speak, and her legs became a little weak.

When Jiujiu saw this, she instantly understood why Xia Xiaoyun didn't even make any excuses but knelt in front of Zhou Shijin and kowtowed to admit her guilt.

Zhou Shijin was so arrogant and high-handed. How could Xia Xiaoyun, a peasant woman, not be afraid? How could she dare to defend herself?

In order to avoid getting into trouble and to save her life, all Xia Xiaoyun could do was to keep apologizing.

Only the medicine boy couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to defend her.

Otherwise, Xia Xiaoyun would suffer the loss in silence.

Jiujiu sighed, came to Xia Xiaoyun, held Xia Xiaoyun's hand protectively, and said, "What's going on? Just tell me, I'll make the decision for you."

"Miss Zhou doesn't dare to do anything to you, otherwise, she will be miserable."

"..." Xia Xiaoyun looked at Jiujiu holding her hand in astonishment.

This beautiful lady was actually willing to hold her hand?

Ever since she came to the capital, both officials and common people looked down on her because she was a country bumpkin and came from the countryside. They were unwilling to talk to her and kept their distance from her.

Jiujiu was the first person to take her hand. She felt warm in her heart and gained a little courage.

"Thank you, sir." Xia Xiaoyun wiped away her tears of excitement and said truthfully, "This is what happened. Two incense sticks ago, after I finished seeing a patient at Jishiditang, I was about to turn around and leave. I didn't touch anyone, I didn't bump into anyone, and I didn't say a word. I just turned around and prepared to leave."

"The bracelet that Miss Zhou behind me was playing with suddenly fell off."

"Then the lady said that I bumped into her and the bracelet in her hand fell to the ground and broke."

"I...I really didn't bump into her. I didn't even touch the corner of her clothes." She was afraid of being disliked, so she usually took the initiative to stay away from people.

"It's just so weird."

Xia Xiaoyun felt very aggrieved.

Zhou Shijin's bracelet actually fell and broke accidentally because she didn't hold it firmly, but she was in a bad mood because the bracelet was broken, so she wanted to find someone to take the blame.

She found Xia Xiaoyun.

She knew best what was going on.

But she wouldn't admit it. She pointed at Xia Xiaoyun unconvinced and continued to argue: "You didn't bump into me, but you turned around suddenly and scared me. I was frightened by you and the bracelet in my hand broke."

"It's all your fault."

"Pay compensation, pay compensation quickly?"

“……” Xia Xiaoyun had no money. She bit her lip and lowered her head helplessly.

Da Zhuang put his arm around Xia Xiaoyun's shoulders and said, "It's okay. I'll take care of everything."

"Da Zhuang."

Da Zhuang looked at Zhou Shijin and said with reason, "You were playing with the bracelet while waiting in line for medical treatment, and it accidentally broke. How can you blame others?"

"That's right!" Jiujiu also said, "No one bumped into you, nor did they yell at you to scare you. You dropped the bracelet suddenly. It's your own stupidity that you couldn't even hold something steady. How can you blame others?"

Jiujiu looked at Zhou Shijin with disgust and disdain.

This Zhou Shijin's style of doing things is so speechless.

"Feng Yanyue, what nonsense are you talking about?" Zhou Shijin's tears welled up in his eyes. "How can this be my fault? It's obviously her fault. It's her fault."

Jiujiu held his forehead and sighed, looking at the onlookers, "How about everyone give us your opinion? Whose fault is it?"

"Everyone, don't worry. I'm here to support you. No one will dare to embarrass you."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people began to speak up.

"I think it was Miss Zhou who didn't hold the bracelet firmly."

"It's Miss Zhou's own problem."

"This little peasant girl is right."

The people have sharp eyes.

Zhou Shijin was speechless after hearing what everyone said.

Jiujiu looked at Zhou Shijin and clicked her tongue a few times.

Zhou Shijin was not convinced. She still felt that she was not wrong and that it was the fault of the mob around her.

They all sided with Feng Yanyue, so they said that.

She is going to the Dali Temple to seek justice.

"Your opinion on who is right and who is wrong does not count. Let's go to the Dali Temple to judge the case."

"Let the Dali Temple official tell us who is to blame?"

Jiujiu shook his head and said, "Let's go."

A group of people went to the Dali Temple to ask the Dali Temple Chief to judge the case.

But when they arrived at the Dali Temple, after both sides explained the whole story, the Dali Temple Chief was speechless for a while, then immediately slammed the gavel and ruled that Xia Xiaoyun was not wrong in this matter, and it was Zhou Shijin's fault.

Zhou Shijin is not a child anymore. She didn't hold her things properly, so she dropped them. She should blame herself for this and be responsible for her actions.

But she just bites others randomly.

She should apologize to Xia Xiaoyun.

Zhou Shijin's persistence did not bring her anything in the end, but instead made her lose face.

It also brought shame to the Zhou family.

No matter how reluctant Zhou Shijin was, under the heavy pressure from Jiujiu and the Dali Temple Minister, she still apologized to Xia Xiaoyun and ran back home.

As soon as she left, the people began to talk unscrupulously.

"People's views on right and wrong are so bizarre."

"Especially this Miss Zhou, she has absolutely no sense of right and wrong."

"She dropped the bracelet by mistake, but she blamed others for no apparent reason."

"What's strange is that a peasant woman with a broken arm and a hard life is so unruly that she deserves to be supported by the people of the world."

"Besides, does she need money for a bracelet? I heard that her daily allowance is several hundred taels. If her broken bracelet is broken, it's fine. Why bother to force her? That peasant woman is pale and thin. She looks poor. She probably doesn't even have one tael of silver. But she asked for a hundred taels. It's obvious that she wants to drive that peasant woman to death."

"It's not like she hasn't done this before."

"Luckily I met this lady who helped me out. But I don't know who this lady is. How could she make Miss Zhou afraid of her?"

Everyone looked at Jiujiu.

Jiujiu smiled politely.

"Why does she look like the Princess Yongle who went on inspection with the Emperor this morning?"
