Chapter 23: Catching the Thief

For a few days, the fat sister-in-law couldn't find a chance to talk to Song Qingyun, the goods in the shops in the city were selling too well, plus there were big customers like Fumanlou, and the sauce meat produced in the workshop was in short supply every day, so Qingyun rewrote a recruitment notice and pasted it on the ancient tree in the center of the village.

Seeing this, the fat sister-in-law simply tore up the notice and hurried to Qingyun's house, ignoring Ziling's left and right, she went straight to Qingyun, who commanded the female worker to do the work, and stuffed a deflated sachet into her arms.

"I made it myself, Sister Qingyun smiled."

Song Qingyun really smiled, she hadn't seen the objects used by giving gifts to herself, this fat sister-in-law didn't shed tears when she didn't see the coffin, she was also annoyed, since she thought so much about working here, she simply fulfilled her wish, whether she could stick to it or not depends on her own ability.

"Fat sister-in-law, I am short of manpower here, if you want to, stay and do the work, but the ugly words are in front, you have to listen to my instructions when you enter my yard, you can't do things half-heartedly, and you have to sign a work paperwork, if you agree, I can let you work now, and the salary is all day."

"Paperwork?" The fat sister-in-law is not a rural village woman who doesn't know anything, and I haven't heard of any documents to sign when looking for a long-term worker, but she signed it...... Will it be sold by Song Qingyun?

Seeing that her eyes rolled back and forth several times, the light cloud staring at her sneered, thinking that she would ignore her, and she would naturally retreat after a few days, but she didn't expect that she insisted on thinking of working here, in addition to greedy for money, I am afraid there is another purpose.

"If you don't want to, forget it." Qingyun returned the sachet to her, and beckoned the daughter-in-law of Changzhu, who was in charge, to send her off.

Oops, this slap in the face, the fat sister-in-law's face was red and white for a while, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I can't read, you read the paperwork, you have to let me know a rough idea." ”

Speaking of this, she looked at Song Qingyun suspiciously, and said in her heart, how can she read and write? used to be blind, otherwise he wouldn't have been bullied by Liu Wang's family.

Qingyun automatically ignored the fat sister-in-law's speculative eyes, and read it to her word by word, which is nothing more than paying attention to personal hygiene, washing hands before and after meals.

When she heard the salary and treatment, she suddenly blossomed, and regardless of whether Qingyun had finished reading it or not, she couldn't wait to pick up the brush on the table and asked excitedly, "I will draw circles, and I will sign them." ”

is fooling the past like her, what's the point of signing papers? took out the red clay and let her press her handprint, and the fat sister-in-law ran to work.

Three days later, Changzhu's daughter-in-law found Qingyun and showed her the manifest, saying that the number of shipments in the past two days was wrong, and ten pig's trotters and ten hooves were lost.

"This is a thief!" Qingyun put down the brush in his hand and lovingly pinched Doubao, whose face was full of ink.

Changzhu's daughter-in-law looked at her in surprise, and only whispered after a while, "Before the fat sister-in-law came, we had never had such a thing here. ”

"So what?" Qingyun looked at her with a smile.

Changzhu's daughter-in-law darkened her face, "Qingyun, I can't cheapen her, I'll go and talk to my father-in-law." ”

The employment documents were written by Qingyun asking Liu Xigui, and she was a woman whose family had no foundation in Liujia Village, and all relied on Liu Xigui, who could speak in the clan.

In the last article of the document, it is written that those who find thieves are regarded as public enemies in the village, and everyone can spit on them, and those who are serious will be punished by Lizheng.

Ten pig's trotters, ten hooves, can be sold for twenty taels of silver when made into sauce meat, which is not a small amount!

The daughter-in-law of the long pillar went out with her front foot, and the fat sister-in-law followed with her back foot.

Zi Ling, who was washing Doubao's face, was about to have a seizure, but was stopped by Qingyun's eyes.

"What's the matter with the fat sister-in-law?" Qingyun found that her eyes were fixed on Doubao who was playing in the water, like a falcon that had been hungry for a few days, eager to grab the prey that had been coveted for a long time and run.

Her heart tightened, and her eyes became a little cold when she looked at the fat sister-in-law.

Stealing meat and trying to steal children?

"Qingyun, I see that this child looks exactly like you, you look at these eyebrows, so handsome!" As she spoke, she stretched out her oily hand to touch Doubao's face, and was slapped away by Ziling.

Qingyun nodded approvingly, and said in a cold voice, "It's not rest time, what's the matter with the fat sister-in-law coming here?" ”

"I'll go and relieve myself, by the way, take a look at Doubao, I'll take him out to play for a while, the weather is good today, and the children look strong in the sun."

actually thought that he wanted to take Doubao away, Qingyun couldn't bear it, and scolded her after hugging Doubao, "Fat sister-in-law, it can be written clearly on the paperwork, you can't be half-hearted during work time, and you won't go out yet?" ”

"Oh, you're really good at laughing, neighbors, I'm tired and can't take a break?"

"Alright, in that case, let's stop and rest, I just have something to say."

Saying that, Qingyun went out with Doubao, and the daughter-in-law of Changzhu in the workshop was saying something to her father-in-law, and when she saw Qingyun coming in, she hurriedly gave her a look.

"Everyone stop what they are doing, Qingyun has something to say." Changzhu's daughter-in-law shouted loudly.

Everyone's eyes turned to the light clouds.

"Today, Changzhu's sister-in-law told me that ten pig's trotters and ten hooves were lost in the workshop, and it is not easy to take out these things.

Everyone was in an uproar, and the fat sister-in-law was dumbfounded, looking at Song Qingyun with a strained face.

Thirty taels, thirty taels?

She picked her ears strangely, and there was a low voice of conversation around her.

"Thirty taels? Enough for my family's expenses for two years, is Qingyun crazy? How can you give such a heavy bounty?"

"That's right, but the light cloud girl said one or two, she never said big things, thirty taels is thirty taels, we said it clearly when we came here to work, there must be no theft, it's only been a few days before there is a thief, if we don't catch this thief, we don't feel comfortable......"

"Do you have any clues? That's a bounty of thirty taels......"

“……”

The discussion became louder and louder, and Qingyun did not stop, letting them talk from ear to ear, and everyone's subtle expressions fell into her eyes, and her heart was like a mirror, just waiting for the thief to jump out by himself.

Time passed minute by minute, almost half a pillar of incense time, no one stood up to provide clues, Qingyun clapped his hands and said, "Everyone go back to work, my reward has a two-day statute of limitations, don't be lucky to be a thief, there is Village Chief Liu, and there will be a day when the water will come out, don't blame me for not being humane at that time." ”

successfully shocked everyone, Qingyun invited Liu Xigui to sit in the house.

The old man was still reveling in the shock of her thirty-tael bounty.

"Qingyun, you don't have to do this, you can find out the thief in half a day by handing it over to me, why spend this unjust money?"

"Uncle, I'm calling it an example, the show is behind, when the time comes, I have to trouble you to give justice to the host, otherwise my workshop is often remembered by thieves, how can there be any reason to go on?"
