Quickly wear a child: a beautiful woman with many children brings happiness

He spoke righteously and passers-by blamed Uncle Ji.

"Don't be foolish and count the chickens wrongly. This shop is a century-old shop. We don't know how much money we make every day. It's impossible for us to be greedy for just one chicken."

Uncle Ji cried, "If these chickens were mine, it would be fine. One less chicken wouldn't matter. But my neighbors asked me to sell them in the city. If I can't sell them, I have to return them. But I don't know which one is missing, let alone whose it is. I can't explain myself when I go back."

He looked at Ji Shen, hoping he could say a few words for him.

Ji Shen didn't know what to do for a moment, so he asked the waiter, "How many chickens do you have in your store?"

The clerk said arrogantly, "How would I know? I buy and sell them at any time. Some chickens gave birth to chicks before I could handle them. How would I remember the number of chickens?"

Ji Shen was in a dilemma. He didn't know the exact number of chickens. How could he find them?

Seeing this, the waiter shouted, "Everyone knows that I am just an employee of the store. Even if I steal a chicken, I cannot take it home. All the chickens belong to the store owner. What am I trying to do? To please the store owner? The store owner makes a fortune every day. How can I please him by stealing a chicken?"

Except for the group of scholars, everyone nodded.

"Dude is absolutely right, there's no benefit in doing this."

"It's a century-old shop. Three generations of my family have bought roast chicken here. It's impossible for them to defraud people's chickens."

"This country bumpkin must have some bad intentions and wants to extort money from me."

Ji Shen and Uncle Ji Wu were both criticized by others. They were too shy to bear it, so they said to Uncle Ji Wu: "If you don't want to just let it go, I'll compensate you for a chicken."

Ji Huai frowned when he heard this.

Uncle Ji was not willing to do that at all. Now that the matter had become so serious, it was no longer a question of whether it was a chicken or not, but also concerned his face and the reputation of the entire village.

Sure enough, someone onlooker said, "I don't know which village he is from. I told my family to stay away from people from this village. If the top beam is not straight, the bottom beam will be crooked."

"See? The owner of this braised meat shop is from the same village as this old man. I wonder if he is trying to extort money from me."

Yan Xiaoman became anxious when he saw the fire burning on himself.

The thing she invested the most in after traveling through time was this braised meat shop. She finally vacated the shop and opened it again. She really made a huge effort.

She hurriedly explained: "There must be a misunderstanding. My store has fair prices and we don't cheat anyone. Please feel free to buy from us."

"What misunderstanding could there be? We are all birds of a feather."

Yan Xiaoman smiled and said, "He is him and I am me, how can we mix them up? He is just a familiar neighbor and has nothing to do with our family."

As soon as these words came out, Uncle Ji Wu's face changed, "Scholar nephew, do you think so too?"

Ji Shen looked embarrassed: "Uncle Wu, let's go back first..."

"Why are you replying?" Uncle Ji Wu was so angry that he was shaking. "Well, you want to distance yourself from me before the matter is clear. I have made a mistake in choosing you. I will take it as my bad luck for what happened today."

Ji Huai supported him: "Fifth Uncle, I believe you. There are so many people here, and they will definitely get justice for you."

He said to the clerk, "My fifth uncle is a highly respected person in the village. He can't be lying. I'm going to check your store."

The guy said arrogantly: "Why should I let you in? This old man doesn't even know what his own chicken looks like. How can you recognize it when you have never seen a chicken?"

It was true that he couldn't recognize it, but Ji Huai couldn't swallow this anger. He had to think about whether there was any way to find the chicken.

Yun Yuan had been watching for so long and knew it was time to step forward. Mu Xingzhi noticed his movement and asked, "Have you thought of a solution?"

Yun Yuan nodded slightly and said with a smile: "There is indeed a way. I can think of an idea. I believe that with the wisdom of the master, you must have thought of it a long time ago."

Mu Xingzhi showed a hint of appreciation: "Actually, I just thought of this, but I'm not sure if it's feasible."

Yun Yuan said: "We'll know if it works if we give it a try."

Mu Xingzhi laughed dumbly, "Indeed, do you want to come or should I?"

Yun Yuan: "I'll come and see if your method is consistent with mine."

Mu Xingzhi chuckled: "Okay."

Yun Yuan walked out of the crowd with light steps. Her voice was clear and pleasant, just like a yellow oriole singing in a valley.

"Excuse me, sir, have you purchased any chickens from other families in your store today?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a graceful, beautiful woman walking out of the crowd.

Her skin was as white as snow, her face was extremely beautiful, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and her gaze was radiant. Her three thousand black hair was cleverly tied into a bun behind her head, revealing her slender and white neck.

She was wearing a crabapple-colored dress. The skirt was wide, soft and light, and it fluttered with her light steps, like a blooming flower, exuding a faint fragrance.

The people present first stared quietly at Yun Yuan's stunning appearance, with amazement welling up in their hearts.

However, when they noticed the bun on her head, they couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Such a beautiful girl was already married. They wondered which young man had such a good fortune.

The guy was also a little stunned.

Ji Huai repeated Yun Yuan's words unhappily: "Did your store buy any chickens from other stores today?"

The guy seemed to have just woken up from a dream and answered, "No."

Yun Yuan asked again: "What about yesterday?"

The waiter answered subconsciously: "Not really. The chickens in our store are all freshly caught three days ago."

Yun Yuan: "What do you usually feed the chickens in your store?"

The guy was proud: "I feed them with rice grains, rice and bran mixed together."

Yun Yuan laughed, Mu Xingzhi also laughed, Ji Huai was stunned for a moment, and then also laughed.

Ji Shen looked at Yun Yuan deeply and pursed his lips. Why didn’t he think of this method?

The man didn't understand, so Yun Yuan asked Uncle Ji again, "How did you feed the chickens you brought over?"

Uncle Ji Wu touched his head and said, "The chickens in our village generally don't need to be fed. We just release them into the wild and let them find food on their own."

Yun Yuan said: "So we just need to kill all these chickens and look at the food in the gizzards to prove who is lying."

The onlookers suddenly realized what was going on and shouted, "Yes, we only need to kill all the chickens to know if anyone has stolen them."

Yan Xiaoman was stunned. Thinking about what she had said, she realized belatedly that she had done something stupid. The clan concept was very strong in ancient times. She had offended the relatives of the Yan family. If Uncle Ji did not lie, how would the villagers view her when they knew it?

The waiter turned pale and shouted, "No, it's too hot now. If we kill so many chickens at once, they will go bad very quickly. We can't agree to this."

Ji Huai said coldly: "How many chickens do you have in your store? If you can prove that you really didn't steal any chickens, I will compensate you at the price of roasted chickens for as many chickens as you have."

Yun Yuan: "The price of roasted chicken is higher than that of raw chicken. You can sell all the stock at once, and you don't have to go through the trouble of roasting it. It's a very profitable business."

The waiter still said no, so Mu Xingzhi handed the jade pendant to the student next to him and said, "Go, call the county magistrate over to me."

The student said "yes", took the jade pendant and left happily.
