Chapter 417: Brick Thief

To this ancient countryside is like this, there is no pastime on weekdays, every household in this village is a fence garden, everyone can see what they have at a glance, suddenly Tong Wu's family is going to build a courtyard wall, many people come to watch.

"On the walls of this courtyard, it's just like the people in the town!"

"But no, no one wants to see the yard, it's a little stuffy, it's not bright......"

"If my house had these bricks, I would build a house, so I wouldn't build any courtyard walls......

"Dong, you really want to build a courtyard wall, these bricks are enough to build a wing...... someone shouted.

Tong Wu came to the door, looked at a few people in front of him who liked to gossip, remembered what happened last night, and said:

"I want to build the courtyard wall, my house was a thief last night, didn't Aunt Li also enter my house before, knocked on the door lock and stole something? This steals so much, and it really builds the courtyard wall. ”

"You're a thief again?"

"No, by the way, what do you thieves think? Isn't there a good saying? The thief is blessed, there is always a reward for good and evil, there are gods in the head, people are watching what they do, and they will eat their consequences if they plant their causes, and he is not afraid of doing too many bad things and being retributed. ”

Tong Wu looked at everyone and said, everyone shook their heads when they heard this, only one person was red-faced, and he choked with dissatisfaction, "Maybe that family is in difficulty?" ”

"What's the use of stealing bricks in difficulty, it's better to think about making money to live, difficulty is the reason to do bad things, so whoever is more difficult, who is poorer, can rob and kill."

Tong Wu looked at this person, she already had a goal, but a few bricks, she didn't have the same knowledge as him, but she knew who it was, and she had to guard against it in the future

The man was silent, turned around and walked towards the West Village, and after a while, he actually pushed a one-wheeled cart to Tong Wu's house, Tong Wu stopped him at the door, and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

I couldn't steal it last night, but I'm going to rob it tomorrow?

This man looked fifteen or sixteen years old, looked dry and thin, looked at Tong Wu, and then looked at the villagers next to him, and stammered:

"I want to help do something, I'll help clean up the yard, I can't hide it, I took the brick yesterday, I used it, I took a few, I admit it, it's me who is wrong, I will never take it in the future?"

"Linzi, what are you doing with other people's green bricks?"

"My mother's plank bed was broken, I used a stone to cushion it, but there was a loophole in the middle, the stone was a little panicked, I took a few bricks, and wanted to give my mother a cushion under the bed, who knew that my mother disagreed, starve to death and don't steal something, I'm sorry, I did it wrong!" This person was humble and sincerely apologized to Tong Wu and Bi Chen.

Tong Wu didn't say anything, turned his head to look at Xicun, and asked, "Which is your house?" ”

Look at the family situation to know what the living conditions of the family are, anyway, everyone here is a fence garden, what the yard is like, you can see it at a glance.

The young man was a little ashamed, he stretched out his hand and pointed, "Count in front, the third alley, the second house!" ”

Tong Wu looked around, a woman in her forties was standing in the yard with a cane, looking up at this side, this earthen bungalow, fence yard, the yard was very clean, planted some vegetables and flowers, it can be seen that she is a living family.

It's just that life is not satisfactory, although there are more mud houses on the left and right, but the bottom of people's houses is made of stones, and the top is made of adobe, and some people have green tiles on the roofs, and the roofs of their houses are all mud plastered.

Although there is a zero difference between the left and right, it is still good compared to her previous house in Nanzhou.

Tong Wu looked at the door to see the lively villagers, and waved his hand to the man named Lin Zi: "Aren't you asking for help?" Let me tell you in advance, no matter what you eat, come in! ”

The young man followed into the courtyard, and without saying a word, he began to work, and the other villagers saw this scene and said dissatisfiedly, "Isn't it just a few green bricks?" Is it worthy of such a trick? ”

"Oh, what are you doing all this? Walked away...... "Some people felt bored and turned to leave, and the others had seen enough and followed back to the West Village.

Only Zhang Ruomei's family was left, looking at the work in the yard, thinking to herself, if this helper took care of the meal at noon, she would also go to help, take the two children, and save some food.

But when she heard that Tong Wu didn't care about eating, she turned around and dragged the two children away.

Hu and Lan wanted to help, but his mother watched it tightly and couldn't do anything, so they had to go back with him.

"Give!"

After everyone was gone, the young man came to Tong Wu and handed over a purse, "My mother, the poor can't be moved, the mighty can't be bent, if I want to be a big husband, I have to dare to be a big man, I apologize to you, this is compensation ......"

Tong Wu stretched out her hand to open the purse, there were more than 30 copper plates in it, and she asked abruptly, "Are you sure these are for me, a brick and two pennies, you give a bit much, right?" How many bucks did you take last night? ”

"Five!" The young man replied with a stubborn expression on his face.

Seeing him like this, Tong Wu laughed, "That's it, I don't want the brick money, I'll give you back the money, you can help us do all morning's work, just help collect the turn of the head and clean up the yard......"

Then, Tong Wu returned the purse to him, he was slightly stunned, and finally looked back at the direction of his house, his mother was standing in the courtyard of her house, looking at it this way, although his mother's eyes were not good, he couldn't see clearly, but he had decided to correct it after his mother's education this morning.

"Here you go, I'll give it to you, what's the matter!" The man suddenly stuffed the purse into Tong Wu's hand again, then turned around and went to work.

Seeing him like this, Tong Wu said again: "Then let's do it, can this money be regarded as your family's stake in my business?" When you make money, you will share dividends with your family, okay? ”

"Whatever, I don't understand anyway, the money is given to you!" He started working with his head stubborn, and he didn't care about that.

At this time, Sister-in-law Wang actually brought her father-in-law to Tong Wu's house, and entered the courtyard, she looked around, "Is the Dong family at home?" ”

During the conversation, she had already entered the house with her father-in-law, and at this time, Tong Wu was sorting out the materials in the house, and she wanted to write down all the things she needed to do in the future.

Seeing the two of them appear, she stood up and said, "It's sister-in-law Wang, is there something wrong?" ”

"That's right, didn't you want to invest in shares and do business yesterday? We are a local family, my eldest brother used to work long in a porcelain kiln in the town, and the family saved change, not much, just one or two silver, I want to ask, can you buy shares? ”
