Chapter 1126:1125 Blame Each Other
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ah Jiao was a stutterer. She couldn’t speak fluently to begin with. Now that so many people were looking at her, she couldn’t speak even more.
“I didn’t steal anything…” Ah Jiao’s hand was swinging like a pendulum.
“If I steal something, I’ll die a horrible death…”
This oath was quite vicious, but it could not wash away Ah Jiao’s suspicion. From the stage to the room, only the two of them had touched the jewelry box, so the thief was definitely one of them.
“You were the only one who took the box after Ah Ju left. If you didn’t steal it, who else could it be?” Mrs. Tao’s head hurt a little.
“You’re a good child. I believe you did this because you were confused. If you’re willing to take out the jewelry, I won’t blame you.”
Alt Jiao was a stutterer. Her father disliked her for not speaking properly, so he left her and her mother behind. Later, when Ah Jiao’s mother died, Ah Jiao helped others wash dishes on the street.
Once, when Mrs Tao passed by, she thought that this little girl was quite cute, so she brought her back to work for them. Although Ah Jiao couldn’t speak, she was very hardworking. Mother Tao liked her very much.
“Madam, I didn’t steal it…” Ah Jiao was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat. “I’m not the only one who took the box. Everyone has taken it before…”
She pointed at the maids. “They said they wanted to see it, so Ah Ju showed it to them…”
Tan Rou asked All Ju, “Other than the two of you, did anyone else touch the box?”
All Ju nodded. “Everyone took the boxes because they said that these pieces of jewelry are very beautiful. If they wear them on their bodies, they will definitely look very good.”
Tan Rou thought for a moment and turned to ask the other maids, “When you got the box, were the jewels still there?”
The few of them nodded. “Yes, when we took it, the bracelet and earring were still there. After we finished reading it, we returned the box to All Ju. We didn’t secretly take anything.”
“Alright, since you don’t want to admit it, then there’s no need for you to stay in the Tao family. There are guests at home today, so we can’t call the police. You can just pack up and leave. I’ll transfer this month’s salary to your accounts after this.
The maids were crying. They didn’t steal anything, and they didn’t know who stole it. “Madam, please give us another chance. I didn’t steal anything. You have to believe us!”
Zhuang Liu looked around and whispered something into Tan Ron’s ear. Tan Rou immediately understood what Zhuang Liu meant, so she instructed Aunt Zhou, who was standing at the side, to find something. Then, she walked back to the maid and asked a few simple questions.
“Where do you usually work? One by one, don’t rush,” Tan Rou said.
All Jiao was the first to say. “I… I work in the garden…”
“I work in the kitchen,” said another maid.

The remaining maids were responsible for cleaning the house and did not have a fixed position.
“Who usually conies to clean this room?” Tan Rou asked another question.
All Ju and another maid raised their hands and said they had been there.
Tan Ron’s gaze lingered on Ah Ju for a while, then she chuckled. “Oh, then you’ve worked hard. This room is quite big and you would need a break from time to time, right?”
Everyone did not understand what she meant, but Zhuang Liu understood. “You can’t rest during working hours. If a person wants to rest, she will definitely find a place without surveillance cameras. There are only corridors in this house that have no surveillance cameras.”
All Ju immediately pointed at the maid next to her. “Her! Every time she conies to work, she’ll slack off. She especially finds a place where there are no surveillance cameras, so she must be the one who stole it.”
The maid who was accused looked confused. “But every time I take a break, you’re also resting. If you ask me, you’re suspicious too.”
All Ju said, “Last time, you said that your brother owed a lot of money from gambling. It must have been you who stole it. You wanted to steal something to exchange for money to go home and pay off your brother’s gambling debts, right?”
The maid was very angry. “I didn’t. Besides, I’ve already cut ties with my brother. I won’t give him money at all.”
All Ju refused to give up. “You must have stolen it.”
With that, the two of them started fighting.
