Siheyuan: I became a truck driver

"For example, he said I spent 60 yuan on a bunch of local specialties. I thought I spent 110 yuan on a pair of deer antlers that day. The prices don't match."

Xiao Yun looked calm and spoke casually, as if the matter had nothing to do with him and he was the one who reported it.

When the residents who were watching heard what Xiao Yun said, the noise of discussion increased.

"What? One hundred and one for a pair of deer antlers? Does Xiao Yun know how to live? How much food does he need to buy?"

"That's right. One hundred and ten yuan. My man would have to work for three months without eating or drinking to barely save that much. Xiao Yun spent it just like that?"

"Besides, what can deer antlers do? Why would he buy this?"

"It seems that what Third Uncle reported was true. Xiao Yun's money must have come from an unknown source, otherwise how could he afford all this!"

...

When Xu Damao heard Xiao Yun come forward, he immediately walked over to the police and said, "Comrade, you heard it, right? Xiao Yun admitted that he had just become a driver and had only received less than two months' salary. He had no money to buy these. There must be something wrong with his money!"

Liu Haizhong quickly agreed, "Yes, that's right. I, a level 7 fitter, am reluctant to spend this much money. How can he, a driver, get the money?"

At this time, Yan Bugui walked out of Xiao Yun's house, holding a pot of steaming mutton soup in his hand. There were oil and chopped green onions floating on the hot soup. As soon as it came out, the aroma instantly penetrated into the nose of everyone present.

"Comrade, I have brought out the evidence!" Yan Bugui said excitedly, but he had no intention of putting the basin down.

Xiao Yun saw that Yan Bugui wanted to take advantage of the chaos to take his mutton soup for himself. Of course, he would not agree and said immediately: "Yan Bugui, the matter has not been concluded yet. You went to my house privately and robbed my things. Do you know what this behavior is?"

Yan Bugui was stunned, turned his head and glanced at the police, and instantly became confident, "Xiao Yun, let me tell you! I am helping the police find evidence, stop accusing me here."

"I am helping the police comrades to confiscate the evidence of your illegal crimes. You just need to honestly explain your problems."

Before Xiao Yun could open his mouth, the police spoke.

"Comrade Xiao Yun, are you saying that the amount on this bill is wrong? You actually spent more than what is recorded here, right?"

The police officer doubted himself when he said this.

He had seen many people making excuses, but this was the first time he had seen someone self-destruct.

Xiao Yun nodded, "That's right!"

"Then please tell me where your money comes from. After all, according to the news we just heard, your income is not enough to support such a huge consumption." The public security comrade's face immediately became serious when he heard Xiao Yun admit it. "If you can't explain it clearly, you will have to come with us."

Xiao Yun didn't want to argue, so he said, "This money was given to us by my father and grandfather. I just got married, and they were afraid that I would have a hard time, so they left me 800 yuan. The source of this money can be traced back."

"They left me eight hundred and I spent a few hundred. That doesn't seem to be a problem, right? Comrade, you can't assume that I'm wrong for spending more just because most people don't spend that much."

The public security comrade nodded immediately, "Don't worry about that. After we find out the source of the money, as long as it's legal, you can spend your money however you want!"

Suddenly, the policeman who was talking to Xiao Yun felt his body being gently pulled. He turned around and saw another policeman constantly making gestures to him.

"Comrade, please wait a moment. I have something to deal with." The police officer said, and walked towards the front yard with his companions.

The atmosphere in the central courtyard at this time became a little subtle. Those people who had previously sworn that Xiao Yun's money was problematic have now changed their tone.

"Eight hundred yuan? Is this Lao Xiao so rich?"

"Yeah, I rely on 800 yuan. No wonder Xiao Yun eats meat every day. If it were me, I would also have to eat meat every day."

"That's right. From this perspective, what Mr. Yan did was a little wrong. What's wrong with a newlywed couple eating some meat? Why is he interfering?"

"That's right. I think this Mr. Yan just can't eat the grapes and says that the grapes are sour."

"Do you remember the incident when the Yan family lost coal before Lao Xiao left? To be honest, my family has had less coal since then."

"Yes, yes, yes. My family is running low on coal too."

"This couldn't have been done by Master Yan, could it?"

"Ah? He's a teacher, that shouldn't be the case."

"Who cares? When the police come back, let them investigate. Then the truth will be revealed."

"Yes, that's right. Every household is short of coal. It's not just one family. This is a big deal, a large-scale theft!"

As the discussion gradually grew louder, Yan Bugui, who was holding the mutton soup, looked a little uncomfortable. He glanced around guiltily, looking like a guilty thief.

Of course he heard the discussion about coal among the people in the compound, and he heard it clearly.

He was the one who stole the coal.

After the coal disappeared at home last time, he didn’t even think about buying more coal. Instead, he went home to review the situation and finally decided to take some from every household instead of just one.

This way you can ensure that your family has coal, and you can also ensure that you are not discovered, killing two birds with one stone.

But he didn't expect that today, he was originally going to report Xiao Yun, but someone dragged him into this matter. Isn't this equivalent to dragging him into the fire pit?

In fact, even if it was not reported this time, what Yan Bugui did would be discovered sooner or later.

When his family bought coal, they burned it extremely frugally. They did not burn coal in the middle of the night when they were asleep, nor did they burn it during the day. They only burned the stove in the morning and evening. Therefore, it was not a problem to buy coal once and use it for a whole winter and a whole spring.

But since he started using other people's coal, his stove has been running 24 hours a day. Sometimes the house is too hot and he even opens the door curtains and windows to cool down, but even so, he still chooses to continue burning.

This resulted in the surrounding neighbors' coal being consumed quickly.

While Yan Bugui was stunned, Xiao Yun silently walked to the door and locked it.

Looking at the pot of mutton in Yan Bugui's hand, Xiao Yun couldn't help but sneer in his heart, "Humph, it's easy to take it from my house, let me see how you deal with it."

Thinking about it, he started reading silently.

When Yan Bugui came to his senses and realized that something was wrong, his first thought was to return the pot of solidified mutton soup.

This belongs to Xiao Yun. I originally thought that I could take the opportunity to take it home by reporting Xiao Yun, but now it seems that Xiao Yun's money comes from a normal source, and the mutton soup must be returned to its original owner.

If what Xiao Yun said was true, it would be bad enough to convict him of robbery.

So, he walked towards Xiao Yun's house with the mutton soup, but when he reached the door, he was stunned.

What? Where did this lock come from?
