"You, why are you taking a shower so early...Xia Xiaoxi, I'm asking you, did you steal my money?"

Sun Jiajia rushed in and was stunned for a moment when she saw Xia Xizhi taking a shower. She did not leave and continued to question her.

She pushed the door open wide.

Nima.

Xia Xizhi stood up, stepped out of the barrel, kicked her out, and slammed the door shut, all in one go.

"She seems to have a serious brain disease."

The system strongly agrees: Indeed.

Sun Jiajia was kicked out and fell to the ground. The pain in her tailbone made her break out in a cold sweat. She took a few breaths before standing up.

"Xia Xiaoxi! You've gone too far! You stole my money and you even beat me up. What gives you the right to be so arrogant? Aren't you afraid that I'll report you to the captain? You..."

Sun Jiajia was shouting in the yard, attracting all the educated youth in that row of houses to open their doors and look over here.

"What's wrong? What's going on?"

"It seems like Sun Jiajia lost her money. It sounds like she thinks Xia Xiaoxi stole it..."

Li Xiao frowned and looked at Sun Jiajia coldly.

"How can you talk nonsense, woman? When did Xia Xiaoxi steal your money?"

Xia Xizhi in the room was not in the mood to take a shower. He rinsed off the foam on his body, picked up a piece of clean clothes to change into, and opened the door.

"Xia Xiaoxi! You're so wicked! Not only did you steal things, you also beat people up. You're going too far!"

"I stole your money? Oh my god, some people just fart when they open their mouths."

Xia Xizhi chuckled, full of sarcasm.

"you!"

Sun Jiajia's face immediately turned as red as liver.

"Xia Xiaoxi! You dare not admit it? I have evidence! Since you don't admit it, don't blame me for not giving you face!"

As she spoke, Sun Jiajia took out a pink embroidered coin purse and held it up.

"I found this purse on your fence! You and your son are the only ones living here, and no one would come here. It must have been you who took it! Also, you eat pheasants and rabbits all day, so where did you get so much money? I don't believe it! You must have stolen it! You have a bad character, you are a habitual offender! And most importantly, you were the first one to come back from the entire Youth League compound. Who else could it be but you?"

System: "Host, that money was stolen by Gursi. Gursi stole her money while she was cooking for him. Gursi ate before leaving. When he left, he threw the purse away, and a gust of wind happened to blow it over and onto the fence."

"Yeah, I guessed it."

Xia Xizhi looked at her like a fool.

"I think your brain is stuck in the door, right? I stole your money and threw it over the fence for you to find? Do you think everyone is as stupid as you? And what's wrong with me eating meat, pheasant and rabbit all day long? What does it have to do with you? If you're greedy, go ahead and buy it. Who's stopping you?"

Some people in the crowd immediately laughed.

"The truth is, I think the description of her as having her brain stuck in a door is quite accurate..."

"That's what I mean. He stole the money and deliberately let people find out. What's the idea? Why not just throw it in the fire pit and burn it?"

"Then who stole her money?"

"Wang Chunxiu seems to live in the same room with her? Where is Wang Chunxiu?"

Speak of the devil, and he will appear. Wang Chunxiu ran over in a hurry.

"I can prove that Xia Xiaoxi definitely didn't steal it! We came back at about the same time. She said something to me and then went back to this room. She's never been in this row of educated youth rooms, so it couldn't have been her who stole it."

As she spoke, Wang Chunxiu said to Xia Xizhi with an apologetic look on her face,

"Sorry, I just went to the bathroom and I'm late."

Xia Xizhi waved his hand and said indifferently,

"It has nothing to do with you."

Sun Jiajia was totally unconvinced and lost control of her voice.

"How is this possible! Wang Chunxiu, are you helping her lie?"

Wang Chunxiu frowned.

"Sun Jiajia, I don't need to lie. Besides, you brought Ge Si to our room to be bandaged, and then you went out to queue up for water to wash. You were away from the room for such a long time, so why didn't you suspect him?"

These words made the people around them look at each other with ambiguous expressions.

"Indeed, I saw that idiot. She did bring him back for treatment. I really don't understand what she was thinking. She's a bit too kind..."

"I saw it too. Ge Si ate dinner in her room before leaving. I was wondering if she had taken a fancy to Ge Si. It turns out she was bandaging him. She must have had some free time..."

Sun Jiajia was immediately displeased.

"Don't say anything without evidence. He definitely wouldn't steal my things. I bandaged his wound, and he's already grateful to me..."

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he looked at Wang Chunxiu as if he had seen through the truth, his eyes became sharp.

"Oh, I see. You two are in partnership, right? So you're helping her! Otherwise, why didn't your money get lost, but mine did?"

This statement aroused public outrage among the educated youth. Wang Chunxiu's usual character was obvious to all. A female educated youth in a floral shirt immediately stood up.

"Sun Jiajia! Stop talking nonsense! We all know who Wang Chunxiu is. She would never do such a thing! It must have been Ge Si who stole it. You let the wolf into your house, don't blame others."

At this time, a thin, dark-skinned male educated youth suddenly said,

"Oh, I saw it then. When Gurth left, he was fiddling with something and then threw something away! Now that I think about it, it must have been your purse!"

A female educated youth could not help but scold Sun Jiajia,

"I'm not saying anything bad about you, Sun Jiajia, but could you please stop being so kind? Bringing a scoundrel like this to the Youth Home is like inviting a wolf into your home. What if he loses things or money again in the future? Will you compensate for it?"

"That's enough! I was just bandaging his wound, why are you saying that to me? What evidence do you have to prove that he stole it? Besides, I was the one who lost the money, so why don't I just let it go?"

Sun Jiajia bit her lip, her eyes red, and ran away with a look of grievance on her face.

A group of people were left looking at each other, and some shook their heads and left.

.......

After this farce, the sky turned dark in an instant, like ink splashed on the ground.

Xia Xizhi and Li Xiao closed the door and propped it up with a large vat before going to bed.

There was only a small kang in this room, but fortunately she was thin and Li Xiao was also small, so the two of them wouldn't feel crowded when sleeping there.

Before, Xia Xiaoxi only allowed Li Xiao to sit at the very edge of the kang and only gave him a small thin blanket.

The temperature difference between morning and evening in this area is large, and it is still a bit cold to sleep at night.

The original owner had a quilt but refused to cover him with it. How heartless...

As usual, Li Xiao covered himself with a thin quilt and curled up in a corner. Xia Xizhi pulled his mattress and him in.

"Don't sleep too close to the edge next time. It's easy to fall off. This kang is big enough for both of us."

As he spoke, Xia Xizhi took another thick quilt to change him into and touched his head.

"Go to sleep."

Under the flickering candlelight, Li Xiao looked at Xia Xizhi who had crawled into the bed beside him. He was silent for a long time, pursed his lips, and suddenly said,

"If you want to marry someone else, you don't have to do this. I agree."
