At the beginning of the year of famine, the lucky girl of the farm family used cheats to support the
Chapter 165: Discredited
As soon as this opening was made, other people also rushed over. Of course, they did not come on their own, but had heard some news "accidentally" and rushed over.
When we arrived, it was just in time for the payment of wages. The stone seller was from another village, and he had some friendship with Boss Duan, so he brought all the stones over without paying a deposit.
But now the house has been built, and the owner has been arrested without paying a penny. But the boss is very worried. Someone sent him a message saying that the Duan family is paying for the house today, so he rushed here in a hurry.
As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw Mr. Duan in the crowd putting piles of silver into people's hands, and even his pace quickened.
When Mr. Duan saw him, his face darkened, but he still paid for the stone. A quarter of an hour later, in full view of the crowd, carpenters, masons, etc. all came up.
The Duan family members were already pale in the crowd, their wallets were empty, but they still couldn't stop so many people from swarming up to collect their debts.
In the end, Mr. Duan even emptied out his family's savings before he could pay the last bricklayer's wages.
Duan Laoer looked at Fubao in surprise. Yesterday, she and Erya went out with Li Shuangrong for half a day, and today she asked him to come and watch the show. She didn't expect it to be so exciting.
Old Mrs. Duan's voice had become hoarse from crying, and the old man was half leaning against the door, holding his empty purse.
The villagers looked at their miserable appearance and couldn't help asking, "What's going on? How dare he start the work when he has no money?"
Those who were watching the fun and not minding the big deal hurriedly said, "How can that be true? Duan Dashan is there, and he only has this much on the surface, but behind the scenes... can he be less?"
Although this may be unpleasant to hear, he has a criminal record and it is not unreasonable for everyone to be suspicious of him.
Those who knew the situation sneered from behind: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't know. At that time, Boss Duan made a lot of money in the casino. But after this incident, he took a lot of money to the county government, so he was short of money."
When he heard someone knew the inside story, someone immediately came up to him and asked, "What? If we take care of it, will it be out soon?"
The man shook his head mysteriously: "Why do you think they arrested him so easily? It's an old case from several years ago."
He pointed his index finger to the sky and said, "You've provoked someone with a background. It seems that the person above him is a prince!"
He lowered his voice when he said this, but many people were still startled: "What! Your Majesty!"
The man said, "I heard about it too. The Duan family spent this amount..." He opened his palm and turned it over.
Everyone around gasped: "How much did you earn before? One hundred taels, just take it!"
Some people were indignant and said, "Why was the second brother taken to jail at that time? Wasn't it because their family didn't pay back the money to the shopkeeper that they were arrested?"
"How much did you owe at that time?"
Talking about old gossip, some people were excited: "Eighty taels! I remember it clearly!"
The people around sighed: "He won a hundred taels but he was unwilling to give it to others. He himself was unwilling to go to jail and send his own brother to jail! What kind of person is he?"
"Who said you only won a hundred taels? Look at their family's food, clothing and daily expenses. How can they spend less?"
Fu Bao turned to Duan Lao Er and said, "Since you could have avoided disaster by losing money, why did you take the blame?"
Duan Lao Er came back to his senses and said, "No one has ever told me this. I didn't know he had money, and I didn't know he didn't have to go."
Fu Bao smacked his lips and said, "It sounds like they are even less human."
The news spread like wildfire, and everyone knew that the Duan family had sent a family member to jail for money. For a time, their reputation became extremely bad, and even the children in the village refused to play with Dazhuang and his family.
Fubao was a little tired of watching, and was about to go back with Erya and Duan Laoer when he was discovered by the eldest brother's wife.
The eldest brother's wife suddenly realized what was going on when she saw her, and then quickly rushed towards the three people: "It's you! How can you be so vicious at such a young age! If it weren't for you, Dashan would never have been captured. It's you who is behind this!"
After hearing this, everyone's attention was focused on Fubao and they slowly surrounded him.
Fubao stood upright in front of her. Although he didn't have the advantage in height, his aura had already suppressed the other party invisibly.
Fubao: "If you don't do bad things, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door."
The neighbors nearby thought it was a bit ridiculous, thinking that the eldest son's wife was crazy: "She is just a little girl, how can you say such nonsense!"
The eldest daughter-in-law said excitedly: "If she hadn't suddenly appeared, so many bad things would never have happened to my family!"
Fu Bao: "What bad luck? Paying the due price for what you did is bad luck in your eyes? Why didn't you say anything when you were taking advantage of me?"
Old Mrs. Duan also rushed over and grabbed Fubao's right arm with one hand: "You can't leave! It's your family who's causing trouble! Let my son out!"
Fu Bao shook his head vigorously, smoothed his sleeves, and said word by word: "The crime your son committed is under the jurisdiction of the government. If you want the person, go to the government."
Someone in the crowd screamed, and someone nearby immediately scolded him: "What are you doing? You're yelling so loudly right next to someone's ear. You're going to die!"
The man did not retort, because there were more important things that attracted all his attention. He pointed at Fu Bao and stammered, "You...you are the goddess?"
Fu Bao's body stiffened for a moment, but he quickly covered it up and asked in confusion: "What are you talking about?"
The villagers nearby also came to their senses: "I was wondering, why does she look so much like the person in the painting?"
"The goddess turned out to be real!"
"Make a wish quickly! Let her make our wish come true!"
"Why didn't she react? Could she have made a mistake?" As soon as these words were spoken, those who were eager to go forward and make a wish suddenly stopped thinking.
They asked cautiously, "Are you?"
Fu Bao smiled and said, "What goddess? My family just runs a small food and beverage business. I am the child of my mother! I am not a goddess. If you admit your mistakes so casually, I might offend you..."
Someone immediately fell silent: "No... no more!"
The first person who recognized her had already run away without knowing when. Fubao was surrounded and could not escape for the time being. From a distance, he heard a group of people rushing towards this side.
Fubao stood there, squinting slightly into the distance. Duan Laoer held her and Erya's wrists and was about to run away, but Fubao's brows relaxed: "It's okay, we are one family."
She didn't recognize the person who came, but the white pigeon with a small green mailbox tied to its feet that she had specially made of thick straw for cooking belonged to Xiao Shun!
