Chapter 78: What is the intention?

"How can you lie on the ground? Who did this to you? ”

Fox Dayou shook his head: "This thief ran so fast, I chased him out of the yard in the blink of an eye, he turned around, and didn't see anything, and when I chased him, he had fallen to the ground, and I wanted to say that no matter who it was, he finally caught this thief." ”

"It's been a long time since this thief was caught in the yamen, who did a good deed without leaving a name?" Not only Fox Dayou and Wei Sanniang, but even the villagers who rushed over were extremely puzzled. Help catch the thief in the court, and there will be a reward, and I don't know which one has a big hand, and I don't even want a reward for silver.

Hu Xiaomei's opinion is a little different: "Is that thief a thief to be caught in the court?" ”

Fox Dayou and Wei Sanniang were stunned for a moment, and hesitated: "It should be." Didn't the yamen say a few days ago that the thief had come to us, wasn't this thief? ”

The crowd was silent.

Finally waited until no one spoke, and the fox fence finally had a chance to interject, and immediately expressed his opinion: "In my opinion, there are two possibilities, one is that this thief tonight is the thief who has been wanted in the yamen, and he was caught by our father if he was unlucky; There is also a possibility that this is just a thief, the thief is likely to be hiding elsewhere, this thief is just coming to explore the wind of the yamen......" After speaking, his eyes lit up: "There is another possibility, this thief and the thief met by chance, and then the two hit it off at first sight, and then joined the gang together, and came to steal chickens late at night, but I didn't expect to meet our second sister going to the toilet, and then was caught by my father, caught one person, and the other person ran away, but whether the person who caught it was a thief or a thief had to be interrogated." With a serious face, he tapped his hand on the table as he spoke. It looks like an old man who has tried the case.

Fox Xiaomei and Fox Fence Xiang glanced at him together.

When you see it, you think it's a storyteller?

"How to have our own yamen to investigate, we don't need to bother."

Although the fox fence speculates randomly, it is still a little marginal, whether this thief is a big thief or not, it really needs to be verified.

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the courtyard.

Fox Dayou suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said to Hu Xiaomei: "The official is here, I'm afraid he will ask you about the night, you just need to tell the truth." Leave the rest alone. ”

Fox Xiaomei was surprised. The efficiency of the yamen in the middle of the night is really high!

When she was distracted, Fox Dayou had already gotten up and opened the courtyard door, and there were two people standing at the courtyard gate, and Fox Dayou led the two in.

In the darkness of the night, the man in front of him was tall and long-legged. The tall figure walks like the wind. Stride in. But as light as silence. The oil lamp in the hall flickered in the wind, slowly illuminating the man's handsome features.

It's the pretty boy who has been here twice.

He was followed by another servant, who had also come to Hujia Village. It was the last time I asked Fox Otomo about the official who met Thirteen in the bazaar.

Fox Dayou moved the bench and invited the two to sit down, and the handsome boy's eyes swept around the hall, and then he took his robe and sat down, and the official stood behind him.

Then Fox Dayou introduced to Wei Sanniang and others: "...... Lord Wei left Weijia Town in the afternoon, and as soon as he came back, he hurried over, and happened to meet us and caught the thief. He pointed to the official behind Wei Ziyu again: "This is Lord Liu." ”

Wei Ziyu sat still, and the Wang Ya servant behind him bowed to Fox Dayou, and said lightly: "Don't dare to be." ”

One sat and the other stood, moving and static, clearly telling everyone that Wei Ziyu's official position was higher.

Everyone's eyes looked at Wei Ziyu.

Although I have seen it twice, there are too many people, and Hu Xiaomei doesn't dare to take a closer look. At this time, she finally had a chance to take a good look at Wei Ziyu in front of her, and she was really handsome and dignified, chic and dignified. The skin is fair, the eyebrows are thick, the eyes are large, the hands are long and the legs are long, and the gestures are all elegant. The eyes are black and bright, and they are clear and bright.

No wonder the fox blushes when he sees it.

It's good to find a man like this as a husband, but I don't know what the character is.

Thinking of this, Hu Xiaomei quietly glanced at Fox Lixiang and found that she was standing upright without squinting.

She chuckled inwardly.

On the other side, Fox Dayouhe had already talked to Wei Ziyu about the situation at night again.

“…… So I immediately made up my mind that I must catch the thief at once, and at worst scare him away at once, otherwise my child's safety will be in danger...... By the time I rushed over, the thief had fallen to the ground, and there was a pool of blood on the ground, and then the village chief and his people also rushed over, and everyone knew what happened next. ”

It's exactly the same as what Fox Dayou said outside just now, and there is no discrepancy in the slightest.

Wei Ziyu nodded. looked at Hu Xiaomei, who was the first to find the chicken thief, and said, "Please tell me in detail how you found the thief and how you scared him away." "The voice is clear and refreshing, and it is very good.

Fox Xiaomei settled down, carefully recalled tonight's events, did not miss a clue, and said everything in detail.

The voice is gentle, delicate, mixed with soft and glutinous sweetness, like soft and smooth satin, which is very comfortable to listen to in the ear, and there is a hint of a different feeling.

Wei Ziyu glanced up at her, and then looked away.

When she said that she rushed into the hall and closed the door, and then Fox Dayou rushed out with a stick to chase the thief, Wei Ziyu frowned and raised her hand to signal her to stop.

"You said that when you rushed into the house, the thief was coming in the direction of the house, and when your father came out of the inner room, and your family of four cooperated to open the door, you just saw the back of the thief escaping from the courtyard?"

Fox Xiaomei nodded.

"How long was it between when you entered the house and when your dad rushed out?" Wei Ziyu looked at her with frowns and asked.

Fox Dayou, Wei Sanniang and the others didn't know what Wei Ziyu meant, they all looked at each other, Hu Xiaomei glanced at her father, thought about it in her heart, and said, "There should be five or six breaths." ”

Wei Ziyu's frowning brows tightened, and his expression became serious: "That means that the thief was still in the courtyard for five or six breaths, but he didn't take the opportunity to escape, and he didn't push the door further?" ”

Originally, Hu Xiaomei didn't think there was anything in between, but Wei Ziyu's words made her relaxed expression gradually become solemn, afraid that she would remember it wrong. She thought about it again and made sure that she didn't feel any external force pushing the door outside in between, and she nodded solemnly: "Yes." That is to say, the thief stood in the courtyard for five or six breaths, and then waited until the fox opened the door of the hall before rushing out of the courtyard.

This statement is also incredible!

Is there such a stupid person?

Or is it ...... "Does he have other intentions?" Hu Xiaomei looked at Wei Ziyu with a calm face and asked.

"What do you mean?" Fox Dayou was confused when he heard this, the little thief was startled by the fox Xiaomei who suddenly ran out of the darkness, and then hurriedly escaped from the yard, what's so strange about this?

Wei Sanniang and Fox Lixiang also looked puzzled.

Wei Ziyu looked at Hu Xiaomei in surprise, she didn't expect this little girl who looked delicate and weak, with a soft and gentle voice, her brain turned so fast. He just asked, and he knew what he was thinking.

A strange feeling immediately appeared in Wei Ziyu's heart. Put away the original nonchalantness. He said with a calm face: "In my opinion, it shouldn't be." ”

Why is that?

None of them figured it out.

Later, Hu Xiaomei followed Wei Ziyu to identify that the thief was sleeping on a wooden board with a white cloth wrapped around her head, and she didn't see the front clearly at that time. I just took a look at the back. It feels very tall. The man slept on a plank with long hands and long legs. A simple bunch of hair, it should be right.

Fox Xiaomei nodded.

After receiving confirmation, Wei Ziyu ordered someone to carry the thief away and left Hujia Village.

This is the end of a lively thief catching scene!

Early in the morning of the second day, there were people standing on the road, and everyone was talking about the events of last night.

In the prosperous era of the Celestial Empire, the blue sky dared to come and steal things during the day, was discovered, did not hide, and dared to continue to come at night, and there were two thieves who stole now!

The only three chickens of Mrs. Zhou's family were lost, but the three chickens of Fox Dayou chased back, the thief had been caught, where did the Zhou's chickens go. Some people speculate that probably the thief didn't think it was enough to steal the Zhou family, so he ran to Fox Dayou's house, and was unfortunately seen by Fox Xiaomei, and was finally caught by Fox Dayou.

However, according to Fox Dayou, he chased after him, and when he turned the corner, the thief had already fallen to the ground, and the big guys said that they didn't help him, so who knocked the thief down?

For a while, there were different opinions.

When Kitsune returned from the market, a large group of people gathered by the small river at the entrance of the village.

First, Wei Sanniang, mother and daughter, carried a basin and washed clothes by the river. When Xiang saw it, he took the initiative to come over to talk, and after a while, the Wang family who was passing by also came over, and the two of them talked about the thieves last night with great interest. When the women in the village have nothing to do, they like to get together and talk nonsense, but later there are more and more people.

Xiang's, Wang's, Tan's, Wei Qifeng, Old Lady Zhou and others all sat in a row on the edge of the field.

From a distance, he heard Old Lady Zhou talking loudly about how she had found the thief last night.

“…… Knowing that the village has not been peaceful in the past two days, I always have to go to the chicken coop every night when I get up, but when I went to see it last night, it was empty, and there was still the shadow of chickens...... It scared me...... These chickens have been raised for several days, and they are fat and big, and they are ready to be sold at the market in a few days...... It's not my life to be gone for no reason...... Later, the boss who heard the voice said 'Oops' when he saw it, and then he heard the shouts in the fox yard......"

Old Lady Zhou paused, looked at the fox Xiaomei by the river with a smile, and said, "I didn't expect the second girl to be soft-voiced on weekdays, but the voice of the thief last night was not small at all!" ”

Everyone collectively turned their attention to Wei Sanniang's mother and daughter who were doing laundry.

"Fence Jing usually looks soft and weak, it turns out that she is still a wise man!" Wang also smiled and praised Hu Xiaomei. She has always thought that Hu Xiaomei is good.

"That's it." Xiang Shi immediately said, since yesterday, her impression of Hu Xiaomei has changed 180 degrees, and at this time, there is such a good opportunity to hold her: "It's not that I said, for the sake of her like Fence, and there are ideas, clever girl, in these villages around us, I can't find a second one." ”

The voice is smiling, and the language is sincere. With such a high evaluation, Wei Sanniang couldn't say it, and Hu Xiaomei lowered her head and didn't raise her head.

The others were a little disapproving, and they didn't speak on their faces, but only laughed. Only Tan's lips pouted quietly. (To be continued......)
