Chapter 8: What is stolen

At the end of a busy day, Su Liuli's little arms and legs have some strength, but she can't stand running to the ground every day, and she has to watch the little child not run around and encounter danger. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Even if it's a vacation for yourself, you don't practice anymore at night, but sleep beautifully.

But in the middle of the night, she was woken up by the sound of a hurried gong.

"Catch the thief, catch the thief, everyone come and catch the thief!"

Turning over and wanting to continue sleeping, it wasn't stolen from his head anyway, so whatever. But it seemed that the noise outside was getting louder and louder, as if something terrible had been lost, and it was so noisy for a while that I didn't even feel sleepy, so I simply got up and went out to see what was going on.

As soon as I went out, I saw that almost the whole village had risen, and they were all gathered in the courtyard of the village chief's house.

Su Liuli relied on her small stature and squeezed in through the gap between her legs, and saw several young people, pressing a man with stubble on his face in the courtyard and kneeling, his hands tied behind his back.

"What the hell is going on, you tell me carefully." The village chief did not hold a big cigarette pouch in his hand, and his clothes were not neatly dressed, so he took a bamboo chair and put it in the courtyard and sat on it as the final judge.

This stubble man, whom Su Liuli knows, is a well-known gangster in the village, who usually specializes in stealing chickens and dogs. This person also knows that rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, and they usually don't make trouble in the village, and the village chief also turns a blind eye to this person, and outsiders will help him go back when they come to find trouble.

However, this stubble man is really not very good, once Su Liuli bought snacks and was going to go back to feed the little kid, but he was robbed by this person halfway, and in the end there was naturally no result. I even snatched children's things, and I didn't know how to be ashamed.

"Village chief, I found out that this person is stealing in our ancestral hall." One of the young men said.

The village chief was still a little sleepy, but he suddenly woke up, with a pair of big eyes that were extremely big and murderous. "Say! You stole something! You dare to steal even the things of your ancestors, you are simply impatient! ”

"I didn't ...... I...... I didn't steal anything......"

The village chief is usually gentle and gentle, but it was the first time he was so angry, and the momentum scared the stubble man so much that he couldn't even speak.

"He's talking nonsense." A young man next to him said, "I obviously saw it, he took something from the ancestral hall and carried it in his arms. ”

"I'm not talking nonsense." The stubble man mustered up his courage and boldly pulled his neck and shouted. "Didn't you see what I stole from me? What about things? What about the swag? ”

Such a rhetorical question instead asked the young man, because he really did not see any stolen goods. He just patrolled the side of the ancestral hall according to the regulations. Although such patrols are almost unnecessary, no one will go to the ancestral hall for no reason, except for rats stealing tribute.

But today he saw the stubble man, a little gangster like the stubble man, who is a person who is unprofitable and can't afford to be early. I didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and went to the ancestral hall, and it was as if I had something in my arms, and I couldn't do anything if I didn't steal something.

"I didn't see the stolen goods, but I know what you came out with. And if you don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing in the ancestral hall, you must have stolen something. The young man seemed to have no strong evidence, and his words were full of his own speculation, but it was useless, and some of them began to go back to sleep because it was a prank by the young man.

"So, you just don't have evidence, and you still arrest me without evidence." The stubble man finally stabilized his mind and turned to explain to the village chief. "I went to the ancestral hall in the middle of the night because it was ...... For I will worship my fathers. ”

"Oh?" I'm afraid even a little kid doesn't believe this.

"Village chief, you think, I'm so big, it's not a small boss, but I only have a lot of strength, but I don't have money. The family has no wealth other than the little land, and has not married a wife until now. I just thought about it, I thought about it every day, I thought about it every night, I wondered if I could live like this, I always had to find a wife and have a son to live honestly for the rest of my life. I thought, if I swear casually, it will definitely have no effect, so I will come to the ancestral hall and swear to my ancestors, saying that I have reformed my ways. ”

What he said was similar to that of a storyteller, and he was full of emotion, if it weren't for the stubble man's dripping eyes, Su Liuli would almost believe it.

The village chief obviously didn't believe it either, but if it was true, this person would have reformed his ways, and that would be God's eyes, and he would finally be sensible.

So the village chief and a few young adults in the village took the stubble man to the ancestral hall for an inspection. found that there was indeed nothing missing inside, so I finally let the stubble man go.

In this way, the matter finally came to a satisfactory end, and everyone went back to their respective houses to sleep, after all, they had to work the next day.

Only the young man who reported it was not convinced, he obviously saw the stubble man stealing things, how could he not lose anything, and in the end it was gone.

After a few days, the stubble man became rich. No one expected that the stubble man would really get better, and he was called over by a friend to do a small business, and he made a lot of money.

In less than a month's effort, a new house was built, and then a rich bride price was taken as a wife by a talented daughter in the next village. The people in the village sighed, don't look at the stubble man who used to be a gangster, but he is also a capable person, and he can make a lot of money if he wants to.

Many people go to the stubble man to probe the wind and ask what kind of business they are doing to make money. The stubble man couldn't say clearly, vaguely saying that it was a jade deal.

The people in the village went to ask the village chief what jade trading was. The village chief pondered for a while, thinking that the stubble man would get rich so quickly, so he said, I'm afraid he made a fortune by reselling the rough stones.

Before the jade was mined, it was wrapped in stone, which also created the gambling stone industry. If a rough stone is made of jade, it will be earned, and if it is a stone, it will be lost. Many people have made a fortune in the gambling stone industry, but more people have lost money in the gambling stone industry.

But the village chief thinks that the stubble man is one of the lucky ones, who won the jade bet and made a fortune.

At the end of the topic, the village chief reminded the villagers not to really make a fortune from this, because more people will lose their families because of it.

No one knew how much the villagers listened, but many people began to inquire about where they could gamble on stones in this area.

Think about it, who doesn't want to get rich, after all, the gangsters in the village can get rich, but they can't, so you can't say it.

However, the stubble man's money is a rootless duckweed, and there will always be a time to spend it in the end. What's more, he usually has a little money, and he either spends all day drinking, or goes to the casino to play. It seems that he has gambled a lot recently, not only has he spent all the money in the family, but he has also lost the dowry of the daughter-in-law he just married.

It's been less than a month since he married his daughter-in-law!

The stubble man's daughter-in-law came to the village chief's daughter-in-law for help, asking the village chief to help her get justice. But the village chief's daughter-in-law couldn't help, and when the village chief heard this, he sighed and shouted, "I know." ”

The weather is starting to get hot, and everyone is reluctant to go out, but not children. Those skinny children, who don't care if they will suffer from heat stroke, in short, going to the river to swim on a hot day is fun.

There was no way, in order to take care of the little child, Su Liuli had to weave a red rope under the shade of the tree by the river. The little kid asked her to play in the water, but Su Liuli didn't go, she would rather go back and take a hot bath than soak in the river.

The weather was too hot, Su Liuli didn't like this kind of big summer at all, even if it was a fire spirit root, and when he looked around, he saw the young man who was patrolling the ancestral hall at the beginning, and he was chasing someone.

Su Liuli looked at it, and the one she was chasing was not the stubble man.

"Say, what the hell did you steal, I'm sure you stole something." The young man finally caught up with the stubble man and grabbed his arm.

"I said it, I worshipped my ancestors, not stealing." The stubble man said as he pulled the young man's hand away.

"You're talking nonsense, I'm not talking about the beginning, I'm talking about last night. I saw you go to the ancestral hall again last night and bring something out. Say! What the hell did you steal! The young man clung to him and wouldn't let go.

"Last night? Hey, you're kidding, I was home last night and didn't go anywhere. The stubble man looked at him seriously and said, "Let go of your hand, don't think that I don't dare to beat you, and you don't ask, there is anyone else in this realm that I can't beat." Besides, you say I stole something, what did I steal? You go and say it, you go to the village chief and say it. I'm telling you, if you pester me again and again, I'll be rude to you. ”

After saying that, the stubble man broke free from the young man's hand and left.

The young man was very unwilling, he knew that he had really seen it, but unfortunately there was no evidence, and he really didn't know what the stubble man had stolen. But it doesn't matter, he's been staring at the stubble man lately to see what secrets he has.
