Chapter 317: Being cheated

But Wang Yazhi didn't say anything, Yuan Xiao often came here and always found something wrong.

This was wrong because Yuan Xiao felt that there were fewer and fewer things in her yard.

Although she often came here, she usually didn't go back to her yard. It wasn't

until she accidentally returned to her room that she found that there were fewer things inside.

The big pieces in the courtyard were made of sandalwood and pear wood, and the remaining materials were made into small decorations, and Yuan Xiao put a lot of them in her room.

She told Wang Yazhi about this, and Wang Yazhi subconsciously suspected Xiaofang, after all, she was the only outsider in the family.

But without evidence, she couldn't directly confront anyone.

Yuan Xiao then realized that Xiaofang really stole things from the house from time to time.

Yuan Xiao always thought that he was pretty good at judging people. When someone introduced Xiaofang to him, they also tried their best to guarantee that Xiaofang was definitely a good person.

Yuan Xiao wanted to take a gamble to see if he was really wrong.

"Mom, please call Xiaofang over."

Wang Yazhi hesitated, "Isn't this a bad idea?"

After all, there was no evidence.

Yuan Xiao's words were not very pleasant.

"Oh, I just asked."

Wang Yazhi called her over.

Xiaofang usually looked quiet, and Yuan Xiao thought she must be timid at this moment.

But now, she looked clear-eyed, which was somewhat inconsistent with Yuan Xiao's usual impression.

"Xiaofang, some things were lost at home recently, but..."

"I stole them!"

Yuan Xiao was shocked, "What did you say?"

Xiaofang looked up, "I stole them all."

Yuan Xiao felt that this seemed to be unreasonable.

"You stole them?"

"Yes, I sold them for money."

Yuan Xiao almost laughed out of anger, "Do you know that you will go to jail for this behavior?"

Xiaofang seemed to have given up, "Go to jail if you want."

Yuan Xiao felt a headache.

If you say she is bad, she will confess everything when you ask her.

If you say she is good, she has committed the act of a thief again.

For a moment, she didn't know what to do with her.

"Xiaofang, bring the things back. I won't report to the police."

Xiaofang said without blinking, "I've already exchanged them for money. I can't give it back to you."

"Then give me the money back."

Xiaofang shook her head, "I don't have any money."

"Why do you need so much money?"

Xiaofang stiffened her neck and looked stubborn, not intending to speak.

Yuan Xiao was helpless: "If you don't say anything, I can only send you to the police station."

"Xiaoxiao!" Wang Yazhi called her.

Yuan Xiao sighed, "Okay, mother, you tell her."

Yuan Xiao walked into her yard and planned to count the things.

She didn't care about the money, but if anyone's house was thieved for no reason and things were stolen, they would not feel good.

Thinking of this, Yuan Xiao felt helpless again.

Wang Yazhi saw Yuan Xiao leave, then she spoke: "Xiaofang, I believe you are a good child..."

"I am not, I steal things."

Wang Yazhi smiled, "You steal things for money, are you short of money?"

Xiaofang didn't say anything.

"You work here for 50 yuan a month, which is much higher than the usual nanny salary. Isn't it enough?"

Wang Yazhi kept mumbling, guessing by herself: "If it's not enough, then there must be something wrong at home? Is it your family?"

Xiaofang's expression was obviously stiff.

Wang Yazhi was carefully observing the expression on her face, and knew that she guessed right.

"If something happens to your family, tell us. It's not that we can't help you. But you must never steal things again."

Xiaofang was stunned and didn't seem to react. "You, you won't hold me accountable?"

Wang Yazhi's face turned stern. "How can I not hold you accountable? I will charge for whatever you took, and I will slowly deduct it from your salary."

"You still want me to be your nanny? Why?"

"Why shouldn't I want you? You've worked here for more than a month, I'm used to it."

Xiaofang looked at her in a trance, tears couldn't help but fall.

"No, you are wrong. You should report to the police and let them arrest me, or at least kick me out. I stole your things, how can you do nothing? If I continue to stay here, I will continue to steal things."

Wang Yazhi asked gently, "Why?"

Xiaofang was silent again.

Wang Yazhi was not impatient at all, and continued to ask, "Believe me, I must first know the reason, so that I can find a way to help you solve the problem."

Xiaofang bit her lower lip and was silent for a long time before she slowly said, "My family is not good."

During the previous turmoil, many families were implicated, and Xiaofang's family was one of them.

Wang Yazhi was stunned and sighed.

"Silly child, this is a new society, we don't care about that anymore, what does it matter? It has nothing to do with who you are?"

Xiaofang looked at her stupidly, "You will be arrested."

She had seen it before, it was so scary.

"What nonsense are you talking about? That was in the past, it won't happen now, don't be afraid."

Xiaofang seemed to not believe it, and asked timidly, "Really?"

"Really, but what does this have to do with your lack of money?"

Wang Yazhi only found out after Xiaofang told her.

Xiaofang is uneducated and often works as a part-time worker or babysitter in other people's homes.

How does she find a job?

They have a small group, most of whom work as babysitters or part-time workers.

Some time ago, a new girl came to their place. She was very sweet-talking and hit it off with Xiaofang at first sight. The two quickly became good friends.

Xiaofang brought the girl home as a guest and told her a lot about her family.

As a result, the girl turned against Xiaofang in an instant and said such and such things about her family and insisted on reporting it.

Xiaofang still clearly remembers what happened at home when she was a child, so she was naturally very scared.

The girl asked Xiaofang to give her fifty yuan a month, and she would not tell anyone about this.

Xiaofang's monthly salary was only fifty yuan, and if she gave it all to her, what would she do? What would she do about her grandmother who still had to take medicine every month?

If you don’t have money, you have to think of ways to make money.

After she moved into Yuan Xiao’s house, she realized how rich Yuan Xiao’s family was.

Especially Yuan Xiao’s yard, which was so big, no one lived there, and had to be cleaned every few days, so she started to think about it.

Wang Yazhi felt more and more that Xiaofang was naive, and this child must have been deceived.

"Xiaofang, you have been deceived, do you want to report to the police and get the money back."

Xiaofang shook her head, "No, no, I won’t give her money anymore."

Reporting to the police would make things worse, and she didn’t want that.
