They are still arguing and dragging others into it.
"Thank you for the compliment, you are also very beautiful."
The young girl nodded, "Of course, I think I'm beautiful too. But praising me won't help. He stole my father's jade ring, and I'm going to bring him before the magistrate."
"I didn't, how come you don't listen to me? I told you I didn't steal it. I really bought it on the street."
"What did you buy?" The girl looked at Fu Tianfu, "A ghost would believe that. You look like you work here, can you afford it?"
"Miss, he really didn't steal it. You are not mistaken about this jade ring..."
Of course, there's a tiny crack on the edge of this jade ring. I dropped it when I was little, you see.
Fu Jiujiu didn't take a close look last time, so this time she gave Fu Tianfu a glance, and he quickly took it off.
She took a look and it was really there.
Fujuju probably understands what's going on now.
"Miss, I think there's been a misunderstanding here. You did lose the jade ring, but he actually bought it. It probably belonged to a thief who stole it and sold it."
The girl stared at Fu Chiuchiu and said, "But the thing is right here with him. How do I know he isn't a thief?"
"Fu Jiujiu still listened to advice, so that's good," he said. "Do you remember what the thief looked like?"
"I don't remember. If I had seen his face, I would have known it was him who stole it, then I wouldn't have lost it." the girl said.
"Fu Jiu Jiu thought about it, and that's also true. "Where did you buy 'Tian Fu' from?"
"I... I'm from the Golden Jade Street area. When I bought it, Eighth Uncle saw me. It cost me twenty taels of silver."
"Twenty taels?" The girl grew even angrier. "This was bought back by my father for over a hundred taels! Selling it for twenty taels is like trying to cheat people!"
Fu Jiujiu actually thought it was possible. The thief, being in a hurry, would definitely sell it cheaply. There wouldn't be much loss for him.
>Sell as much as you can, and you'll make that much profit.
"Alright, why don't you go back to the place where you bought this and see if you can find the person who sold it to you that day? If you find them, things will naturally be resolved."
"Why bother with all that trouble, with our family's circumstances, would I steal?" Fu Tianfu said.
"What are your conditions? Does whether or not you have money have anything to do with whether or not you steal?" the girl asked again.
Fujujiao felt that made sense, "Tianfu, go ahead."
The young girl glanced at Fu Jiujiao. Seeing Tian Fu and her being close, and their ages similar, she said, "Miss, I think you're quite handsome and your words are pleasant to the ear. I advise you, when looking at people, don't just look at the surface, especially men, you must be careful not to be deceived by them."
Fuju giggled, "Miss, you misunderstood."
However, the girl didn't listen to her explanation, she shrugged her shoulders, "I don't have any misunderstandings, I just think... you're a pity, such a pretty face, why not be with my brother?"
"Huh?" Fu Jiujiu was dumbfounded. This girl was too...
"To be honest, I just like beautiful people. My brother and I are twins, don't you think I'm pretty? My brother and I look very alike. He hasn't been betrothed yet. There are some things I can't tell you, but overall, you don't have to worry, he has a bright future."
Fujujiao can't help but laugh and cry.
Fu Tianfu laughed so hard he was out of breath, squatting on the ground. "You're dreaming! She's not going to marry your brother."
"Well, what's wrong? My brother is definitely stronger than you. Look at you, are you some big shot?"
Fu Tianfu shook his head. "No."
"Then you're rich?" the girl asked again.
Fu Tianfu shook his head again. "Not really."
His parents are wealthy, but that's not his.
"Isn't that enough? My brother earned military honors at a young age, and my grandfather was a great general who quelled the rebellion in Nanyu...ah..."
The girl covered her mouth as if she had said too much.
Her mother told her not to show off.
"Forget it, anyway you guys don't know. To sum up, I like your face, and you seem pretty nice too. Don't you really consider being my sister-in-law?"
Fu Jiujiu shook her head. She probably knew who this girl was now.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm already betrothed."
"Even if things don't work out, you can still break off an engagement! And even after the wedding, you can get a divorce!"
Her mother remarried her father rationally and now she has both children, living happily.
"I... don't have that plan for now." Fu Chi-Chi said.
The girl sighed, "It's a shame."
She glanced at Fu Tianfu, who was laughing hysterically on the ground, "Hey, get up quickly and come with me to find that thief. If we can't find him, I'm still going to take you to the magistrate's office."
Fu Tianfu stifled a laugh and stood up, “I say, Miss, are you just arriving in the capital?”
"Yeah, what's up?" She suddenly realized, "You... you wouldn't have been watching me for a long time, would you? Come on, are you planning to steal something from me? What do you want to steal?"
Fu Tianfu looked back at Fu Jiujiu. This girl was probably an idiot.
"I haven't got the time to keep an eye on you. The fact that you don't recognize her means you've only been in Beijing for a short while."
"Who is she? Is she an amazing person? Or is she famous? Because she's pretty?" The girl looked at Fu Jiu again.
"We all have them, right?" Fu Tianfu said as he walked.
When Fu Tianfu returned, it was already two hours later.
Everything has been moved. Fu Jiujiao is drinking plum wine, her little face flushed red. This is her treasure.
"Little aunt, you're drinking again. Be careful I tell your uncle."
Fu Jiujiu glared at him, but Fu Tianfu smiled.
Has the thief been found?
Fu Chou Chou saw that there were no new wounds on his face, so he should not have had another conflict with the girl. That's why she asked like this.
Fu Tianfu plopped down on his backside and grabbed a handful of food, shoving it into his mouth. He looked famished.
"Well, it's alright. That thief came back to sell stuff again and tried to sell to me. I caught him red-handed, and that girl beat him up, so he confessed and cleared my name."
Fu Jiujiu looked at his empty thumb, the jade ring that was always there had been given back to that young lady.
"Since things are resolved, that's all that matters."
Fu Tianfu nodded. "That girl is very fierce, if she really fought me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be a match for her. Little aunt, I want to learn martial arts." M..
Fu Jiujiu was taken aback, "How old are you? Besides, what do you practice martial arts for?"
Fu Tianfu said seriously, "Self-defense, looking at the delicate little girl, who knows how good she is at fighting. I'm afraid of meeting another one."
