As soon as Laba had breakfast that day, the Chu family was dressed up and got on the ox cart to the town on the side of the road!

Across the road in front of the door, a slightly thin man was hiding behind a willow tree on the side of the road, staring at everything in front of him. It wasn't until the ox cart pulled the Chu family and staggered away and disappeared that the man walked out from behind the tree, and quickly walked around to the backyard of the Chu family with a slight limp.

On the other side, the ox cart had just turned the corner, and Shen Luzhu, who was still sitting quietly in the car, slapped his thigh suddenly: "Oh, stop and stop, stop quickly!" I still have water boiling on the stove, and I forgot to put it out! ”

Grandma Chu also shouted: "How do you work, you can forget this, what if this house burns down?" Stop me and let me down! ”

The coachman parked the car on the side of the road, put the Chu family down, there are few people in the town today, and he is quite happy to see such people in front of the Chu family, who would have thought that this has not yet gone out of the village, and he will go down again, the coachman is a little unhappy but there is no way, Chu Yi handed fifty Wen to the coachman: "This is hard-earned money, there is an urgent matter at home, I am really embarrassed!" ”

The Chu family quietly detoured back from another path and entered the courtyard of Chu Ping's house next door. After settling down the family, Chu Yi came to the front door and met Chu Ping, who was hiding there: "How is it?" ”

Chu Ping whispered about the situation after the Chu family left: "After you left, I saw that he went around to the back, Brother Cheng and his brother were guarding in the backyard, and just his brother quietly came over and said that people had climbed over the wall and entered." ”

The thin man, after climbing over the courtyard wall, went straight through the backyard, Xu knew that there was no one in the yard, and he would not come back for a while, his actions became wanton, first picked the lock of the main house, and did not find anything valuable, then he walked to Chu Yi and Shen Luzhu's house, the door was locked with a big lock, and the man pried it for a long time before opening it and entering the house.

The man walked directly to the kang cabinet that he turned over to the money box last time, and took out the big money box from the bottom familiarly, this time there were a lot more copper coins in it than last time, but how to look at it is only four or five taels at most, isn't the paper money business of the Chu family very prosperous? Why don't you have a lot of money these two times?

I was wondering, and suddenly I felt a strong wind behind me, and suddenly I had a sharp pain in the back of my head, and my eyes were dark, and I didn't know anything!

It turned out that all this was Chu Yi's trap, and Shen Luzhu deliberately told others about the fact that his family was going to the town. The whole family here went out in a hurry, and Chu Ping hid behind his door early in the morning, staring at the movement outside the courtyard, because he was not sure where the thief would enter the Chu family, Zhao Chengcheng took his brother to guard not far from the backyard, planning to wait for Chu Yi's family to come back, and give him a front and back attack!

Thanks to Grandma Chu and Chu Ping's Aunt Qian, first the neighbors who lived nearby, then the idlers who wandered around, and then half of the people in the village came to join in the fun!

The thief was tied hand and foot at the moment, and was lying in the courtyard of the Chu family, and the onlookers who came to watch finally squeezed in, looked at the person, and muttered: "Hey, isn't this person Wang Tiecheng from Zhutun Village?" ”

The others listened and asked, "Are you sure?" How do you recognize Zhutun Village? ”

"Uh...... You don't care about this, anyway, I know him, he must not have run away! ”

Recognize this person is a famous lazy man in the village, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling on weekdays, it just so happens that someone in Zhutun Village has opened a casino, fighting crickets in summer, playing mahjong in winter, shaking dice, and the idlers in ten miles and eight villages love to get there!

As soon as others heard what he said, they guessed most of them: "Three boys, did you sneak away to Zhutun Village to play money again, could this be your gambling friend!" ”

"What nonsense, I've quit gambling a long time ago, okay, don't spew blood!"

"Quit gambling, just you? Who believes! ”

"Hey, you ...... man"

Seeing that the two of them were arguing together, they hurriedly persuaded each other: "What's the quarrel, if you really know this person, three boys, it's better to go to his house and call someone over, the Chu family doesn't recognize him, and he can't always be tied up like this!" ”

The three boys thought about it, he was here to join in the fun, he had been tied up like this, what else was lively and beautiful, so he squeezed out of the crowd and ran towards Zhutun Village.

Chu Yi didn't hit him hard, Wang Tiecheng actually woke up a long time ago, but he didn't want to face the scene in front of him, he heard that someone recognized him, and he had to go to his house to call someone, so he simply planned to pretend to be dead to the end, and it was expected that the Chu family would not dare to take him to the ground! Just as he was thinking about someone coming to the family for a while, how should he get out, he was splashed on his face by Grandma Chu with a basin of cold water!

This is the wax moon, not to mention being splashed with Wang Tiecheng, even the people who are standing on the side watching the excitement can't help but get goosebumps.

Wang Tiecheng screamed with stimulation, sat up tremblingly, and saw that he couldn't hide, so he pretended to be frightened and shrank on the ground: "Who are you, why did you beat me, and tied me up, is there any royal law!" What are you doing here? ”

"You're going to go to the king's law! Why did you say I tied you up, you black-hearted person, you stole money to our old Chu family! Grandma Chu thought of the silver she had saved, and she felt afraid, seeing that this little thief actually dared to beat a rake, she was even more angry!

"Who stole it, I don't even have half a penny on my body, you old lady is not here to be nonsense!" Wang Tiecheng remembered the copper coins in the box, fortunately he didn't have time to put them in his pocket, and his heart suddenly settled down a lot, why did he say that he stole without evidence: "If you want to catch people, you have to catch stolen goods, I don't have a penny on me, what kind of money did you steal?" ”

Chu Ping's aunt Qian shouted: "That's because you haven't had time to take it away!" If it weren't for my nephew who came back for a temporary incident and caught you, this house might have been emptied! ”

"That's it! If you weren't a thief, why did you pick the locks? My grandson caught you in the house, you dare to deny it! ”

Wang Tiecheng faced Qian and Grandma Chu, and did not flinch at all, and continued to play tricks with his neck: "I didn't pick the lock, who saw that I picked it, did you see it?" Who knows when your house entered the thief, I just happened to pass by, you don't want to lie on my head! ”

"Fart, you bastard! You can pass by and come to my house! Taking advantage of the fact that no one in my house entered the yard, what were you doing if you didn't steal something, wouldn't you still be able to go to the door! ”

"Hey! That's right, I'm here to visit the door, I'm a relative of yours......"

Shen Luzhu and Chu Yi glanced at each other when they heard this, relatives? How dare this person make it up!

Before Wang Tiecheng finished speaking, he was interrupted by a burst of crying: "My son, who made you like this, what did you do, what did you do?" ”

It turned out that the third boy rushed over with Wang Tiecheng and his aunt, Wang Pozi pounced on his son and slapped him, the youngest son was damaged by those idlers in the village in the past two years, and he became more and more uneasy, and the family didn't know how much mess he had cleaned up: "Why can't you let me save my worries, what are you doing?" ”

"Auntie, I didn't do anything! They are the ones who have wronged people! They accused me of stealing money, A-Niang is really not me, I don't believe you touch, I don't have a penny on me! ”

"You didn't do it?" Mrs. Wang touched her son's pocket suspiciously, but there was really nothing: "Are you mistaken, I don't have anything on Tiecheng, why do you say that he stole money?" He didn't steal, you guys let people go! This winter's going to freeze him to death! ”

Grandma Chu took the broken lock and threw it in front of Mrs. Wang: "Look at this lock, and then look at the house, it's clear that it's here to steal!" He didn't have any money on him, but before he could put it in his pocket, he was caught by us! ”

Wang Tiecheng relied on the fact that the money was not on himself, and he bit it to death and refused to admit it: "You old woman spews blood, I said that it is not me, there is no evidence, you don't want to rely on me!" ”

Shen Luzhu didn't want to be involved with this kind of scoundrel, and seeing that his mother-in-law seemed to be okay, he was about to take two steps forward to talk to her, but Chu Yi held down his arm and blocked her in front of her. Chu Yi came to Mrs. Wang with the big money box of his own: "Auntie, he was caught by me, when I entered the house, he was holding the money box to count the money, the money was not on him, first, it was too late, and second, there were thousands of copper plates here, and he couldn't carry it!" ”

Chu Yi also opened the money box as he said and showed it to Mrs. Wang and the onlookers.

"I didn't! Which person who steals money doesn't take the money and run, I'm crazy, I'm not in a hurry to run and count the money there? ”

Feng Cripple, who was crowded at the front, couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Who doesn't know that there is no one in their old Chu family today, and they have gone to the town to spend Laba, what kind of hurry are you?" ”

The old Liu Tou next to him also said: "Who said it wasn't, I see that you have heard that no one has come!" Hey, no, Chu boy, your family isn't going to town, why are you still there? ”

Shen Luzhu hurriedly came out to explain: "It's all my fault, I was about to leave the village in an ox cart, but I remembered that there was still water boiling on the stove, so I hurriedly stopped the car and came back!" I have to come back at a loss, otherwise I will let this thief succeed! ”

"Yes, yes, I saw it, as soon as the ox cart passed by my door, I heard the daughter-in-law of the Chu family say that she forgot to turn off the fire, and her old lady still shouted, how can the house be burned!" It was a fat aunt who lived in the village, and when she went to the courtyard to get firewood in the morning, she happened to see the scene on the ox cart.

Mrs. Wang heard a round of talk, thought about her son's virtue in the past two years, and knew that this matter was a certainty, and she couldn't get rid of it: "It's me who is not right, but you see that he didn't steal it, and you don't have any losses, this has also tied him up for a long time, old lady, I'll compensate you, I'm sorry, this matter is just settled?" ”

"I'm afraid not!"

The onlookers saw Chu Yi shaking his head and refusing, feeling that he was a little unkind: "Chu family, I don't think it's easy for this old lady, whoever has such a child in the stall is enough to worry about it, and your family really has no loss, or forget it!" ”

"Yes, he didn't steal anything, just give him a lesson, this is cold, your grandma splashed water on others again, and then freeze it again!"

Seeing that someone was helping to speak, Mrs. Wang hurriedly took two steps forward and begged Chu Yi: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you can do it, young man, spare him this time!" ”

Chu Yi refused again: "No, it's not the first time he came to my house to steal, he succeeded last time, and he came back this time, if you let it go easily, all the thieves will know that my family is good in the future!" ”

Seeing that there seemed to be someone whispering among the onlookers, and he didn't quite agree with Chu Yi's approach, Shen Luzhu stepped forward and asked: "If my family becomes a fragrant dumpling in the eyes of these thieves, and comes every day, will this backing village still have a peaceful birthday?" Who can guarantee that they will be able to hide every time? ”

Now the onlookers were silent, when the matter didn't reach their own heads, they could still say something lightly, but if it was really like what the daughter-in-law of the Chu family said, this would not be so easy to say!

"You fart, Lao Tzu was caught by you this time, Lao Tzu thinks he is unlucky, but I didn't succeed! You don't want to buckle the previous basin on Lao Tzu's head! Auntie, don't listen to them, they just want to blackmail money! Unfounded, did he steal it when he said he stole it before? ”
