Volume 1 Chapter 26 A Tooth for a Tooth
"Little sister, why did you just let him go?" Qiao Song didn't understand his sister's behavior very much, why didn't he catch someone.
"What if you catch it? He is from Qiaojia Village, no matter how big a mistake he makes, Li Zheng will eventually think about turning big things into small things and small things. "If they bite and don't let go, they have to deal with it, and the anger is out, but they also offend people, so it's not bad if the well water doesn't interfere with the river water, and everyone is safe.
Although Li Zheng is a reasonable person, he can't stand the many mouths of Qiaojia Village, and they are related to each other, so he is also very embarrassed.
"It's impossible to just be so cheap for him." Qiao Song still felt unwilling when he thought about it.
"How can it be cheap for him, and he will suffer after that." Her itching powder has been itching for ten days and a half months, and this punishment is to make him remember that they are not easy to bully, and they are still dumb and eat coptis, unspeakable bitterness, no evidence, and no one will believe it.
"Go and see if any money has been stolen from the house." So much money was earned by their hard work, but it couldn't be stolen like that.
"Oh, okay, I'll go." Big brother, they don't know where the silver is really hidden, so they still have to do it.
"Little brother, don't hide, come in."
Qiao Xi went to the room to check if the silver had been stolen, while Qiao Song took in the bucket and fish basket that had been thrown at the door and put them away, looked at the broken fence door, and didn't care about it anymore, let's get it tomorrow.
I was in a very good mood when I came home with a full load, but I didn't want such a thing to happen, the mood of the three people was ruined, Qiao Xi was a little better than Qiao Song, and they had already prevented it from the beginning, but they didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Qiao Song and Qiao Bai were defenseless at all, they met so suddenly, and their hearts were sudden, Qiao Bai was especially obvious, he was the youngest, he had heard of thieves, but he had never met them, and he had the greatest impact on him.
"Little sister, how is it? Is it still there? Qiao Song was a little unexpected, if there was no more, they would ......
"Big brother, it's all here, my room has not been patronized." Qiao Xi's voice came from the room.
"That's good, it's not early, everyone rest early." said to Qiao Xi and pulled Qiao Bai back to their room.
"Big brother...... He...... Will he still ...... Will it come again? "Qiao Bai thinks about it now, he is still trembling all over, if he steps forward, people can deal with him with a finger, and there is no room for resistance at all.
"Probably not, ...... in the future" He can't guarantee this, he didn't steal it this time, and he will come back next time, this home is easy for him to enter, and the fence around it is useless to block it at all. It seems that the wall must be fenced, and it should be fenced a little higher, so that the thief will not come back next time.
"Other people's eldest brother can't guarantee it, so we can only change it ourselves, and we have to use green bricks to build up the wall."
"How much money does it cost to build a wall? Are we enough? Qiao Bai was worried.
"Discuss it with your sister tomorrow, it should be no problem." The sum of the money earned in the past few days is almost ten taels, plus the previous money, it should be enough to build a wall.
"Hmm."
"Sleep, I'm going to come to Juxian Lou tomorrow morning to pull fish and vegetables."
"Yes, big brother." The two brothers took off their coats and got their shoes and socks into the bed.
Qiao Xi went back to the room and didn't sleep for the first time, until the big brother next door fell asleep, she quietly walked out of the house, and disappeared into the night.
Qiao Si never thought that this time would be unfavorable, he has been working for so many years, and he has never missed.
Originally, I thought it was just a few children who didn't grow up, the easiest to get, but in turn it was an army, these three little ghosts didn't sleep in the middle of the night, what did they go out for, they actually came back at that point, why did he carry it like that, he didn't get his hands, and he was beaten in turn, and I don't know which of the other two, every hit is to hit the most painful place, it really beats him to death, and the pain is so painful that he can't help but scream, fortunately, it's the middle of the night, it's far away, otherwise he will definitely not be able to run away.
However, the big one was also beaten by him a lot, and his heart was quietly balanced.
He didn't know that what made him more painful was about to begin, and as he walked, he began to feel that something was wrong with his whole body, this itch, there, a moment of effort, his whole body began to itch, a moment of scratching, a moment of scratching, the whole person twisted as if he was dancing.
He didn't dare to make the slightest noise, for fear of waking up the sleeping people, which was not just announcing what he had done.
After Qiao Xi came out of the house, she quickly caught up with Qiao Si and followed him all the way to his house, you don't want to be a thief and want her family's money, then she will retaliate and turn his family into her own, anyway, no one will know who did it.
I don't know if Qiao Si has a ghost in his heart, although he couldn't bear the itching on his body when he got home, he still endured it alive, and ran to check his money jar, Qiao Xi was hidden in the dark, and he could see it clearly through the hazy moonlight, my obedient, I didn't expect this thief to be so rich, and he hid more than a hundred taels, yes, yes, these will be hers in a while.
After counting the money, Qiao Si put the money jar back in its place, and continued to scratch his ears and cheeks on his body before lying on the bed, Qiao Xi took the antidote of itching powder from the storage ring, and sprinkled it in the air, and soon Qiao Si stopped moving around and fell asleep.
Qiao Xi swaggered in, took out the money jar, and collected all the silver into the storage ring, as for the loose money, she didn't rush to kill it, and kept it for him to live.
Before leaving, he gave him a different itch powder, this itch powder itched once every two hours, and each time the time was maintained in the shape of a tea, and the effect of the medicine would be automatically lifted after a whole month, so Qiao Si had a very dire time in the next month, and when he went to see the doctor, he found that the silver was inexplicably missing. made his heart tremble fiercely, it couldn't be a ghost, otherwise how could this money disappear inexplicably.
He had also suspected the three brothers of the Qiao family, but when he thought about it, he felt that it was impossible, after all, they didn't know who entered their house that night, and finally put this idea away, but they didn't know that it was one of the brothers and sisters of the Qiao family.
Later, because of this illness, I didn't go back to Qiaojia Village for a long time.
How to come back and go back, no one in the entire Qiaojia Village knows what happened tonight, and the thief was pitted, and I feel very happy when I think about it.
Qiao Xi returned home, when nothing happened, she took off her clothes and lay down under the covers.
As soon as she slept this night, she slept until three o'clock in the morning, and it was Qiao Bai who called her, and she woke up from her sleep.
"Little brother, what time is it?" Qiao Xi's eyes were hazy, and she rubbed her eyes vigorously, no matter how she looked at it, it didn't look like it was a second hour.
"Sister, it's time now." Qiao Bai stood in the doorway and replied.
"What? It's too late, why don't you wake me up? "It's almost noon, no wonder she sees the sun outside, she hasn't woken up since she came back yesterday, and she slept so soundly?
"Big brother said, you've been too tired lately, so you didn't let me call you, let you sleep well, this is the money for forty-five fish, sixty catties of cucumbers and five catties of bamboo sunflower this morning." They can basically get in about one or two every three days, and this money is accumulating more and more, and I am happy to see it, which I didn't dare to think about before, my sister is amazing.
"Well, good. I'll see what I need to buy at home, and then I'll go to town to buy some. After collecting the money, Qiao Xi dressed and walked out of the house.
"Come on, little sister, there is still a little millet porridge in the pot, can you eat some?" Qiao Song washes the hawthorn in the yard.
"Big brother, when did you pick the hawthorn?" It's not that it's gone, how can there be so many more.
"Yesterday afternoon you went to take a nap, and I couldn't sleep, so I went to the mountains and picked some back." Yesterday so many people were fishing, and they were not in a good mood and couldn't sleep, so they went to the mountains.
"We don't even know, why don't you say a word." Qiao Xi said with some reproach.
"Pay attention next time. Let's have breakfast. ”
"Big brother, I'm talking to you about business, don't worry about him."
"Okay, remember."
"Sister, eat." Qiao Bai brought a bowl of millet porridge and handed it to her.
"......" Qiao Xi took the spoon and spooned it little by little, and the bowl of porridge quickly bottomed out.
"Little sister, I want to discuss something with you?" Qiao Song stopped what he was doing, looked at Qiao Xi with serious eyes and said.
"What's the matter?" Something so serious made her nervous.
"I wonder if we're going to fence off the courtyard, big brother doesn't want yesterday's incident to happen again." Thinking of last night, he was terrified, if there were no people in the village to disturb the situation, they would not go fishing at night, and it is a loss that they went fishing at night, they were not in their sleep, if they were in their sleep, they would be killed, and no one noticed.
"Build a wall, oh, why didn't I think of it, yes, the courtyard wall should be built, and it should be built high, so that those thieves can't easily enter." She only thought about sprinkling medicine around the fence, and she didn't even think about putting up the wall, which was really ...... Ay......
"You agree with that."
"Of course I agree, it's just whether this bit of land is enough, if it's not enough, let's buy the one on this side too, simply build the wall a little bigger, and make more money in the future, let's rebuild the house and build a three-entry one, big brother, what do you think?" The house will definitely be rebuilt in the future, this room is not enough at all, and it is not warm in winter, she must have a earth dragon when rebuilding, so that she is not afraid of cold in winter.
Three people per room, but also have a study, guest rooms must also be prepared two, there will definitely be people in the future, the room must be sufficient.
