"What!" The pork seller was taken aback.
There was also a sound of backward suction air around.
"Little girl, don't talk nonsense here." Sell mountain mushroom's humming sound to say a, at the same time disdain of white Shen Ning one eye.
"Tell me, little girl, where is my lost money?" An urgent way to sell pork.
Shen Ning said with a smile: "you should first ask me, which of you two actually told a lie."
The pork seller said, "well, it's the mushroom seller who lied. He stole my money, but he refused to admit it. I saw him put my money into his pocket just now."
"You said that the money in my purse is yours. Do you have any evidence? Anybody see that? You just want to do wrong with your empty teeth. If the county magistrate is here, you can't try to injustice a good man! "
Seeing that they were going to quarrel again, Zhou county magistrate's head hurt again.
"This girl, you just said that one of these two people lied. Who is it, girl?" He looked at Shen Ning and asked seriously.
He didn't look down on Shen Ning because she was a young girl and dressed in rags. On the contrary, he was very polite.
The gentleness with which he was able to treat a peasant girl with the dignity of a county was enough to show his unusual bearing.
Shen Ning can't help but look up at him.
People respect me a foot, I respect people a foot.
This has always been her principle.
"Even if I point out who lied, that person would not admit it. I just said that there is a way to prove it. We can verify it on site. " She answered very politely.
"What method and how to verify it?" Zhou asked again.
He wanted to break his scalp, but he didn't think of any good way. How could this little girl come up with it? His eyes towards Shen Ning are full of curiosity.
"Chase the wind, go and get a basin of water, clean water." Shen Ning said.
Chasing the wind hesitated for a while, and then looked around at the people around again, then separated the crowd and took water.
When he glanced at it, everyone could not help feeling a chill.
Soon, chasing the wind came back with a basin of water.
"On the ground." Shen Ning Dao.
Chasing the wind, Yiyan put the basin on the ground, retreated to one side, and his heart was full of curiosity.
It's strange that a basin of water can tell who lies.
Originally, the noisy crowd also quieted down. People all opened their eyes to Shen Ning to see what she was doing with a basin of water.
Is this water a mirror?
The pork seller was puzzled, and the mushroom seller sneered. The boy named Wufu secretly pulled his own county master's sleeve.
"Young master, do you really believe this little girl's words? She's not playing tricks, is she
Zhou county magistrate is also confused, but indifferent way: "we listen to it is OK."
Shen Ning raised her head, took a black and white look at the pork seller and the mushroom seller respectively, and said with a smile:
"there is no basis for words. Seeing is believing. Let's let the facts speak. This mushroom seller's uncle, if you throw all the money in your purse into this basin of water, you can prove that you are wronged."
The mushroom seller said, "what? Is it that simple? "
"Yes, that's it." Shen Ning nodded: "what we say doesn't count, but the money in our pocket knows who is the master of our own. If we want money to talk, we throw it in the water."
