Scholars in the courtyard

The atmosphere in the Yang family was solemn.

Ran Hongbing stood aside with a stubborn expression.

Ran Qiuye looked at the five yuan bill on the table and frowned.

"Where did the money come from! Tell me clearly!"

Ran Qiuye's voice was cold, and there was anger hidden in her voice. Even Ran's mother didn't want to get close to her after hearing this, so she hugged Duanwu and walked aside.

On the other side, Ran Xinrui glanced at the eldest sister, then stared at Ran Hongbing for a while, with anger also appearing on her face.

Ran Hongbing could see that the eldest sister looked embarrassed, and tears fell down.

Originally, when school was over today, I picked up five yuan on the roadside and went home happily to show off, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

"Sister, I, I really picked it up."

"Sister, I really picked it up."

Seeing Ran Hongbing shed tears, Ran Qiuye breathed a sigh of relief mentally. She knew this brother well and had been strict with him since he was a child. Although he was a bit naughty, he would not steal.

"It's clear where I picked it up and who else saw it."

Ran Hongbing wiped her tears and said, "Just around the corner outside the alley, the money was pressed with a stone. When Wang Xiaohu and I came back, we saw it. It was ten yuan in total, and each of us took one piece."

After Ran Hongbing finished talking about the matter, Ran's mother came up and poked Ran Hongbing's head, "How many times have I told you, pie will not fall from the sky. Don't pick up anything on the roadside here, even money. Why don't you think about it?" Woolen cloth?"

"So many people walked by, how come you two picked it up?"

Ran's mother said, Ran Qiuye's eyes narrowed, and then he stood up, "Xiao Bing, take the money and follow me."

"Sister, I didn't take it, I just picked it up."

Ran Qiuye walked up to Ran Hongbing, stretched out her hand to wipe away Ran Hongbing's tears, and then said with certainty, "Eldest sister knows, and eldest sister also believes in you. Our family is not that kind of person."

"So, don't be afraid. Tell the police uncle about the matter clearly. Do you understand?"

Ran Hongbing nodded, "Sister, I know. My brother-in-law said that if a man dares to do something, he means it, and if he doesn't, he doesn't."

Patting Ran Hongbing on the shoulder, Ran Qiuye smiled and nodded.

The two walked out of the door, and Wang Dashan's roar could also be heard from the Wang family on the side. Then the door opened, and Wang Xiaohu's face was red with red marks, and his face was full of tears, followed by Wang Dashan.

"Teacher Ran."

After Wang Dashan saw Ran Qiuye, he stepped forward to speak.

"Brother Wang, it's not the child's fault. I believe there must be something hidden in it."

Wang Dashan nodded, "I know my own kind, Xiaohu is not that kind of person."

"What I'm angry about is that this guy doesn't have a brain."

As he spoke, he twisted Wang Xiaohu's ears forward. Wang Xiaohu bared his teeth, but did not dare to resist.

"With this kind of brain, if someone sells him for money in the future, he will be a fool."

Ran Qiuye glanced at Ran Hongbing, who was shrinking his neck, and then walked towards the middle courtyard, followed closely by Wangcai.

Behind him, several brothers from the Wang family followed, and Ran's mother also led Ran Xinrui to follow.

At Aunt Ma's door, Director Zhang looked around Aunt Ma's house. With his gaze, he had already found clues.

Judging from the marks left on the rear window of the house, it was probably a child who entered the house and stole.

Other than that, there were no other traces in the house.

In this case, either the other party recovers quickly after taking the money, but no matter how he recovers, it will leave traces, unless he is a master.

Furthermore, the other party was very familiar with the furnishings in the house and went straight to where the money was.

This guess is relatively reliable, that is to say, the child who stole is an acquaintance.

It's in this courtyard.

Director Zhang stood at the door, while two other police officers were checking for signs around the yard, and interrogators were conducting investigations.

Yan Fugui followed Zhang Suo with a sad look on his face. There has never been a good time in the courtyard in recent years. Something happened every year. Now the Chinese New Year is coming and another one comes. Could it be that the courtyard has become a den of thieves?

If this continues like this in the future, no benefits will be gained, and he, the uncle, is still a piece of shit.

Thinking of this, Yan Fugui gritted his teeth at those who destroyed the 'harmony' of the compound.

"Zhang Suo, we must catch the thief this time and punish him severely."

The surrounding residents all looked sideways. It was the first time they heard Yan Fugui say such strong words.

Qin Huairu supported the aunt and couldn't help comforting her. When she heard what Yan Fugui said, she couldn't help but glance at Jia Zhang in the crowd.

If I didn’t take the stick, it couldn’t be this old woman.

Suddenly, Qin Huairu felt a little uneasy.

After taking two forced breaths, Qin Huairu was shocked and continued to comfort her aunt.

The two held hands and were very sad.

At this moment, the people watching the excitement suddenly separated, and Ran Qiuye led Wang Dashan and Wang Xiaohu behind Ran Hongbing and followed him closer.

People near the front saw Ran Hongbing and Wang Xiaohu each holding a five-yuan bill in their hands.

When Jia Zhang saw it, she immediately became very happy. Lao Gao was stunned and even more proud. It was finally the Yang family's turn to be unlucky. How could he bear it.

"Let's take a look. This is not self-inflicted. Let's take a look. We have to check who stole it from our house."

"Hmph~~"

Mrs. Jia Zhang smiled proudly. The stick figure in front of her was stunned for a moment, then grinned, "Fortunately, the students are here. I'm waiting to go to school and tell my classmates that they are all thieves."

"Yes, let's talk to the school and tell everyone to be careful."

Mrs. Jia Zhang patted Banggeng on the shoulder, feeling very proud.

Banggeng looked at the two of them, feeling proud of his own cleverness.

Originally, he thought of telling the matter at the critical moment. Unexpectedly, the two of them admitted it on their own initiative, which saved him a lot of trouble.

On the side, Ran Hongbing and Wang Xiaohu heard that Bangge was going to school to slander them, and they were so angry that they went up to beat him, but Wang Dashan stopped them. Ran Qiuye didn't seem to hear, and pulled the angry Ran Hongbing forward.

As for Wang Dashan, he just stared at Jia Zhang, then looked at the stick, sneered, and then followed.

Director Zhang and Yan Fugui all saw Ran Qiuye, and they were also confused.

Why does this matter still have anything to do with the Yang family?

Walking closer, Yan Fugui looked at the five yuan in the hands of Ran Hongbing and Wang Xiaohu, and his heart suddenly pounded.

Just now, he said that he would be punished severely. Would this offend Yang Xiaotao?

For a moment, I was mentally hesitant.

However, Zhang Suo's face did not relax, but became more solemn.

"Teacher Ran, what's going on?"

"Zhang Suo, this is my younger brother, Ran Hongbing."

Ran Qiuye walked up to him and fought Ran Hongbing. Wang Xiaohu also stood beside Ran Hongbing.

Zhang Suo looked at the two people, especially Ran Hongbing, and the stubbornness on his face was not fake at this age.

"When he came home, he said he found five dollars. I was thinking that the money was lost in the yard, so I brought it here for you to see."

Wang Dashan on the side also nodded, "This is the same for me, I picked up five yuan."

Zhang Suo frowned and then looked at the two children.

"Xiao Liu, take him inside and ask."

With that said, he asked the policeman next to him to take Wang Xiaohu to the house to ask about what happened.

Wang Xiaohu left uneasily, leaving Ran Hongbing alone.

"Ran Hongbing, tell me everything you know."

Zhang Suo looked serious and stared at him, taking in all his expressions.

The people around were quiet. At first, they thought it was Ran Hongbing and Wang Xiaohu who were responsible. Even the aunt's eyes widened when she saw the two pieces of money, because she was so familiar with the creases on them.

When Ran Qiuye came over, Qin Huairu felt inexplicably happy when she saw the money in the hands of the two children.

I finally caught this woman's pigtails, and I want to build a good reputation from now on, haha.

"After school, we just walked back."

Ran Hongbing told everything he knew, and then stood aside.

"Uncle Public Security Bureau, I really picked up this money."

Zhang Suo saw his expression in his eyes and said, "If you pick something up, you have to hand it over to the public. Didn't your teacher at school say that?"

Ran Hongbing lowered his head and said calmly, "I, I plan to give it to the teacher. My sister is the teacher."

Ran Qiuye on the side almost laughed angrily after hearing this, waiting to go back and deal with this disobedient brother.

Feeling the murderous aura behind him, Ran Hongbing suddenly shrank his neck.

"Come on, tell me where you found it."

As Zhang said, Ran Hongbing nodded immediately and ran outside first.

Zhang Suo only took Yan Fugui out with him.

Jia Zhang felt uncomfortable when she heard what Ran Qiuye said about the money she found.

Even though he had already taken out the money, he was so stubborn that he said he picked it up. Why couldn't she pick it up? That’s ten dollars!

Annoying.

With this idea in mind, Mrs. Jia Zhang pouted and said disdainfully.

"If you steal it, you steal it. We all know the ins and outs of the same hospital, but you still insist on making up a bunch of lies to find a way for the children to escape. You are really an educated person."

"Oh, that's not right, there is someone who doesn't belong to this compound!"

Mrs. Jia Zhang glanced at Ran's mother as she spoke. She was extremely envious and hated this kind of behavior of taking advantage of her uncle's family.

It's a pity that she has no daughter. Even when her two granddaughters grow up, she still doesn't know how tall the grass on the grave will be.

So Jia Zhang felt uncomfortable when she saw Ran's mother on weekdays.

Ran's mother heard the meaning behind the words, but there was no movement.

During those years of raising three children alone and facing the gossip outside, what kind of scenes have you not seen?

She didn't pay attention to Jia Zhang's tricks at all.

Sure enough, when everyone around saw Ran's mother being so calm, they all shut up and watched quietly.

When Jia Zhang saw it, she thought that the other party had nothing to say, and since she had not made any mistake, she was even more arrogant, "Let me tell you, what a big deal. This kid just made a mistake when he stole something. Can't he just change it?" , we all belong to the same courtyard, and we are not serious people."

"You deserve to do this."

The Wang Dashan family members couldn't stand listening, they pinched their waists and stared, while the two brothers behind them rolled up their sleeves, "Jia Zhang, who are you talking about?"

"Hey, so and so knows. You can't steal it and admit it?"

"It's clear that he has a guilty conscience and wants to surrender and seek leniency."

The warning slogans on the walls of the subdistrict office and police station are firmly engraved in Jia Zhang's heart.

"You, you are such a lazy and evil-hearted old woman, I will never be done with you now."

Mrs. Jia Zhang looked like she had something to say. The Wang Dashan family was so angry that they wanted to slap her twice, but they were stopped by Ran's mother beside them. The matter was not clear, so it would be wrong to do anything.

Let her be arrogant for a moment!

In this regard, Ran Qiuye still stood there, turning a deaf ear to Jia Zhang's words and not caring at all.

She believed that her brother was not that kind of person.

Instead of wasting more words, it is better to wait for the results.

Qin Huairu helped Auntie go out and stood at the door. The two of them looked at Ran Qiuye with complicated expressions.

Of course, the thoughts in his heart were different. Qin Huairu felt at ease, especially what Jia Zhang said.

How to put it, relieve your anger.

Anyone who has been in this yard these years can tell that the sun comes home every day for the Jia family, getting lower and lower every day.

As for the life of the Yang family, everyone knows that it is better every day.

Comparing the two, as two famous women in the courtyard, Qin Huairu and Ran Qiuye naturally have to compete with each other.

It's a pity that the men in her family are not strong enough.

Let her lose miserably.

But now, I finally have a chance to beat her once!

But the aunt was helpless.

When this matter is brought to the Yang family, I always feel a little nervous.

On the other side, Zhang Suo and Yan Fugui followed them not far from the entrance of the alley. Ran Hongbing pointed at a red brick on the ground.

"right here."

"When we walked here, we saw a turntable on the side of the road with money deposited underneath!"

Zhang Suo looked around, then asked Ran Hongbing to put the money down and rearrange it.

"That's it."

Ran Hongbing thought for a moment, put the money down, and turned his head to hold down half of it, leaving the remaining half outside.

After Zhang learned about it, Ran Hongbing went back and Wang Xiaohu was brought out again. The two of them said the same thing, that is, they put the money in the same way.

When Zhang Suo came back again, the look on his face was solemn again.
