Chapter 10

"Ning Yuan"Ning Yuan jolted, instinctively taking several steps back: "Don't!"Li Yan's hand froze in mid-air. Several people around him wearing red armbands also looked at each other in surprise. What...Rong Zhaonan narrowed his eyes, but before he could speak, Tang Zhenzhen couldn't take it anymore.

She's not here to watch two men protecting Ning Yuan.

Tang Zhenzhen's face darkened as she gritted her teeth and glared at Huang Xuehong and Qin Xiaoxia on the side: "You two speak!"

Tang Zhenzhen looked at Huang Xuerhong and Qin Xiaoxia: "Xuerhong, Xiaoxia, do you think the things in this cookie box disappeared this morning"

Huang Xuěhóng hated Ning Yuān to death, nodding frantically: “Right, I saw it with my own eyes. Zhēnzhēn's money and food disappeared this morning, Ning Yuān stole them!”

Qin Xiaoxia mumbled, "**, the things in this box are gone, and there's only five dollars left."

She didn't lie, she just spoke ambiguously. As for what others think, she can't control it.

As soon as the two of them testified, the crowd began to buzz with excited discussion.

Especially Tang Zhenzhen enjoyed high popularity among the educated youths, coupled with Ning Yuan's "self-degradation" and the fact that she mixed with bad elements from Beijing who were sent to work in cattle pens.

The following educated youths all spoke up for Tang Zhenzhen.

"That's right, everyone else went to work this morning, but you weren't there."

She is an upright person. Yesterday, when she thought something had happened to you, Ning Yuan, she even ran away in her shoes to get help for you!

"That's right, Ningyuan, you stole something from someone and have no conscience!"

Li Yan saw the anger on the faces of the educated youths, and looked at Ning Yuan, his brow furrowed: "Ning Yuan, you..."

Just as he was about to say something, a cold and distant voice suddenly interrupted him: "You didn't see Ning Yuan stealing things with your own eyes. Words without evidence are meaningless. Do you have any proof"

Ning Yuan looked at Rong Zhao Nan, who had remained silent the whole time, a hint of surprise in her eyes. He was always taciturn in front of everyone because of his "special" status.

This time, she actually spoke up twice in a row and even helped her

As soon as Rong Zhaonan spoke, everyone's attention instantly focused on him.

Huang Xuehong angrily pointed at him: "You bad guy, it was you who led Ningyuan astray and made her steal things!"

Her outburst of anger immediately resonated with both Zhiqing and the villagers.

"Yes, it might be him, that bad guy, who told Ning Zhiqing to steal things!"

"You see, Ning Yuan wasn't like this before, she wouldn't even resort to hitting people. She must have been influenced by bad elements!"

......

Ning Yuan listened more and more, finally understanding why Rong Zhao Nan always kept his presence low and rarely spoke in public.

People who have been labeled as bad, even if they are innocent.

Whenever something bad happens in the group, most people blame this person!

This is the power of prejudice!

"Wait a minute! This has nothing to do with Dr. Rong, I didn't steal anything in the first place, let alone money! I have evidence!"

Ning Yuan couldn't help but step in front of Rong Zhao Nan, shouting with all her might.

It instantly drowned out the other people's noisy and contemptuous shouts.

Li Yan gave Rong Zhaonan a cold glance, just adding to the chaos!

Then, he looked at Ning Yuan and said in a low voice: "Comrade Ning, if you have any evidence, just bring it out. The brigade won't wrongly accuse an innocent person."

When Li Yan, as the squad leader, spoke, the villagers and the educated youths all fell silent.

Ning Yuan turned and entered the small hut next to the cow shed. After a while, she rushed out again, holding something in her hand: "Tang Zhenzhen, is this what you meant by cookies and candy"

Now that material resources are extremely scarce, people make such a big fuss over "luxury cookies and candies."

After decades, talking about current events feels like a joke, but Tang Zhenzhen mostly uses it as a springboard for creativity.

Ning Yuan had a bag of cookies and the rest of a small handful of Da Bai Tu candy in her hand.

Tang Zhenzhen's eyes lit up immediately, and she pointed at her hand: "My everlasting green cookies, and white rabbit toffee!"

Ning Yuan, this idiot, even brought out all the evidence.

Wait a minute... there's not enough sugar!

Tang Z Zhen angrily glared at Ning Yuan: "You stole my things again, there are only five Da Bai Tu milk candies left, and my jade chili peppers!"

These candies and cookies are nowhere to be found in the countryside, she wouldn't casually eat them!

Ning Yuan said coldly: "This is something my relatives sent from Shanghai. Why can't I eat it"

"You're lying! This was sent to me by my family from Shanghai!" Tang Zhenzhen sneered.

Ning Yuan gave it to her, and it was hers!

Huang Xuehong also covered the bump on her head and shouted loudly, "Yes, we all saw it, it was sent by Zhenzhen's family!"

As soon as Huang Xuěhóng finished speaking, the people around him began to discuss it again.

"Now I wonder what Ning Zhiqing has left to say. She still wants to go to the countryside to support agricultural construction, it's already good enough that she doesn't come here to steal our things."

"Tsk..."

Ning Yuan suddenly took out a package slip from her pocket with no expression on her face. "This is my evidence. There's a Shanghai postmark on it, you can see what it says."

Tang Zhenzhen was taken aback and suddenly had a bad feeling.

Why is Ning Yuan still keeping this shipping label Several months ago, she watched the other person throw it in the trash!

Li extended her hand to take it, looking at the shipping label and reading aloud, "A box of Millennium Cookies, one bag of White Rabbit Milk Candy, recipient...Ning Yuan."

As soon as the words left his mouth, everyone looked at each other in surprise.

Ning Yuan has evidence, the sugar is hers.

"Well, I've proven that I have candy and cookies. What about you How do you prove that things belong to you" Ning Yuan sneered.

The cookies and candies she herself couldn't bear to eat, which she gave to Tang Zhenzhen, became the evidence used by this woman to frame her.

Fortunately, later on, she kept a Shanghai postmark stamp for her collection and picked up the package slip before discarding it.

Tang Zanzhen's face paled slightly, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on Huang Xuerhong's arm: "That only proves you had candy and cookies. You already ate your cookies and candy, this is mine!"

Huang Xuerhong's fat arms ached from being squeezed, and he hastily nodded: "Yes, yes, yes."

Rong Zhaonan leaned against the cart and suddenly said, “Whoever claims it, they must provide evidence. Now that she has provided hers, it’s your turn to produce yours. Do you have any What markings are on that jade chili pepper”

Tang Zhenzhen glared angrily at him: "Xiaoxia and Xuehong both saw me receive the package. Besides, it's not your turn to speak, you bad guy!"

How did she know there were markings on the jade chili carving!

Li Yan cast another warning glance at Rong Zhaonan, hoping to silence him.

But he still addressed Tang Zhenzhen seriously: "Comrade Tang, whoever makes the claim needs to provide evidence. Besides your fellow educated youths in the same dormitory, what written evidence do you have to prove that these cookies, sugar, and jade chilies belong to you"

Tang Zanzhen bit her lip and, under everyone's gaze, her eyes reddened. "Witness testimony isn't enough, and I don't have much to say. Let's just say that the cookies and candy, even the jade chili peppers, are all hers. I must have misunderstood. That's it!"

Saying that, she put on a wronged expression and turned to run!

She has witnesses, Ning Yuan has physical evidence. Anyway, this matter can't be cleared up, and Ning Yuan's reputation won't get any better.

Kening Yuan came over at some point, blocking her path and said coldly:

"Wait a minute, Tang Zhiqing, you just want to leave like this"

Tang Yan was exasperated, staring at her: "Is that really all there is to it"

Ning Yuan sneered: "But I do care, and I haven't seen five dollars. Now I suspect that the five dollars in your hand are stolen from me!"

Not only Tang Zhenzhen, but even Huang Xuehong and Li Yan and the rest of them were stunned.

What does this mean

Rather, Rong Zhaonan shielded half his face with the mirror's lens and his eyes flashed a strange light, staring at Ning Yuan thoughtfully.

Tang Zhenzhen looked at her in disbelief: "What did you say!"ittle wretch only reluctantly agreed to give it to her as a New Year's gift. Since she agreed, that thing is hers!Li Yan saw Ning Yuan's expression was wrong, so he frowned and asked Huang Xuehong and...
