Chapter 827: Stealing wine out of the village
When we were drinking that night, there were only 9 helpers, and one helper named Hu Chuanxin went out for something and did not rush back to the winery for dinner. Everyone waited for a while, and did not wait any longer, so they waved their choppers one by one to make the fight and drink dominantly.
At the dining table, Wu Renyi's wife Hong Qiaoyun accompanied the wine, drank less, she cleaned up the windswept table, took the two bottles of uneaten wine back to the wine storage room, but Bing Candle walked to the door, she took the key to open the door lock, found that the door was open, and then saw that the door buckle of the hanging lock was twisted, she knew that it was not good, and walked into the wine storage room to see, dozens of pots of wine were gone.
She shouted—the wine had been stolen, and there were robbers in the winery. But the people in the winery were all drunk in a daze, and no matter how much she called, they didn't care. Hong Qiaoyun came out in a circle in the wine storage room and approached her husband who was sleeping in another room, and when she saw him snoring and pinching his nose, he twisted his body and screamed "hum", unable to wake up in a daze. No matter how Hong Qiaoyun shouted that the wine was stolen, he didn't reply, and occasionally said nonsense such as "I'm not drunk, have another drink".
Hong Qiaoyun was in a hurry, she quickly rushed to the house at the east end of the winery, knocked on the door of the Zhang's house with the lights on, and Uncle Zhang, who was full of beard, came out to listen to her talk about the theft of the winery, and scolded: The robbers of the dog day are really powerful.
So he walked to the entrance of the village and shouted about it, and more than 20 men, women, and children came out of the village, all of whom followed Hong Qiaoyun to the winery to see the scene of the theft. What else to say, they gossip about how bad the thieves are, how every household should take precautions, and so on, and so on, and it has not dispersed for a long time.
He walked through the mountains and forests, and returned to the adobe house where Liu Yuzhen lived alone on the other side of the mountain, and it was late at night, and he also brought back a bunch of fish, which filled the house with a fishy smell. Seeing this, Liu Yuzhen asked him why he came back from the fish so late and where he got it.
Got it from the outside. Bai Delai did not say the specific address, and replied vaguely. Liu Yuzhen didn't ask anymore, Bai Delai actually cooked automatically, and it was 5 o'clock in the morning after supper, and then he fell asleep.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, the gentleman sent someone to bring moon rice or something, and the person who came was a descendant, smelled a fishy smell, and saw the fish dumplings placed on the wall, so he remembered a surprising news that spread in the village early in the morning: the fish pond of Sima Fu's house was given a fish-killing agent last night, and the fish in the fish pond turned up their bellies and poisoned a lot.
In this way, he told Liu Yuzhen about this by the way, Liu Yuzhen frowned, and said Damn fish thief, why don't you drown the fish thief? I immediately thought of Bai Delai, who came back with a bunch of fish last night, he behaved badly, is he a suspect in stealing fish? As soon as the offspring was gone, she walked into another adobe house and woke up the sleeping Bai Delai.
In fact, Bai Delai woke up a long time ago, because he was a thief, and as soon as the morning dawned, he only slept for a while, and he couldn't sleep, he paid attention to the movement outside, worried that someone would come to interrogate him, after all, he was not caught, and he was brewing what kind of lie to use in order to fool the past without leakage.
But this is his self-feeling, and his behavior has aroused Liu Yuzhen's suspicions. Liu Yuzhen said: I asked you last night where you got that fish from, and you didn't answer me, can you tell me today?
Yes! I fished it from the wild lake, what's the problem? Bai Delai, leaned and said calmly.
Liu Yuzhen knew that she couldn't ask, so she said bluntly: Last night, the fish pond of Sima Fu's house was given a fishicide and poisoned the fish in the pond, which is a crime, I am worried that you are involved, have you participated?
No! No! I do not know. Bai De said, shaking his hand constantly.
So in which wild lake did you catch a fish last night? Liu Yuzhen wants to break the casserole pattern (ask) to the end.
There are a lot of wild lakes, I'll tell you, you don't know, you rarely go out at such an age, don't care about such idle things! Bai Delai instead taught Liu Yuzhen a lesson.
You are a foreigner staying here, you have to obey the rules, otherwise something will cause me trouble. Liu Yuzhen raised her voice and said.
Nothing, I'm very disciplined. Bai Delai lay down again.
Liu Yuzhen said that would be good. Then he walked out of the adobe house, and looked at the fish on the wall, still entangled in a puzzled mystery.
In the past few days, Bai Delai has repeatedly stolen and failed, and his heart is full of a sense of loss. That evening, Bai Delai entered Xinghua Village, and in the half-surrounded area of the countryside and the mountains, there was a row of houses covered in twilight. He suddenly smelled the aroma of wine wafting in the air, in fact, it was Xinghua Village Wine Workshop.
He approached the winery along a gray road, and saw a group of men drinking inside, and a woman in the middle, all of whom had drunk and turned red-faced. Bai Delai's lips smacked, and he also wanted to rush over and have a drink. But he felt that he was a stranger, and he went over to mix casually, how could the men accommodate him? If you don't get it right, you will be beaten.
In his hometown in Zhejiang, he was caught for stealing, and he was beaten a lot, so when he approached the dignified men, he was always stunned.
He had a pair of rat eyes, he had other plans, he tiptoed into the other unlit houses of the winery, there was nothing of value in them, all the spare tools for winemaking, some were bulky, some were light, but stealing these had no effect, and he didn't make wine, if he stole and sold it, he would be asked to the bottom of it, and he would show his feet as a thief, he simply didn't want it, and went around to the door of another room, pushed the door and couldn't open it, and touched the lock. Generally speaking, the more locked the door of the house, the more tempting it is. Tempted, Bai Delai pulled out a pair of pliers from his bulging waist bag.
When he comes out to run errands, he picks the door and twists the lock, he always has this kind of tool. He was very nimble in doing this, and he only clamped the lock with his pliers, and with a twist he broke the buckle, and then reached out to hold up the door leaf so that the whirring door shaft did not make a sound, and he went in.
A strong smell of wine made him secretly happy. He touched many wine jugs, about dozens of them, and he went back and forth in three or two, and it took him less than a few minutes to turn all the heavy wine jugs outside the door. He found a rope and cut it in two, and tied the jugs full of wine in two, and took a stick of wood for a flat burden, and put it on his shoulders, and crept along; The night became his cover, and when he walked out of Xinghua Village, no one found out. Because there was no moonlight that night, even the starlight was obscured by the clouds in the sky, and only a gray luster set off his gray heart, and he hurried towards the brightly lit streets and alleys in the distance.
It was a night market, and Bai Delai was walking around with so many wine jugs, and he was looking intently at whichever hotel was lively. The lights, shadows, and shouts of the restaurant in front of it are intertwined, and it is very lively. A green soft satin flag was also picked out on the eaves of the restaurant, with four yellow lacquer characters on it: Jiangnan Restaurant. Because the four lanterns hanging on the restaurant are also marked with these four eye-catching big characters, radiating a brilliant red light, so it can be seen very clearly.
