Chapter 3129 Thief (one more)
Yang Ruoqing came over and said: "Youdao is only a thief for a thousand days but not a thief for a thousand days. This hole is blocked now, and another hole will be holed elsewhere in a few days."

"When the time comes, the entire wall will be riddled with holes, and we will be busy patching holes every day without doing anything. How tiring it will be!"

Da Mo said: "That also needs to be mended, these bastards, I see that the door lock and the door frame of the courtyard door also have signs of prying, really all methods have been used."

Yang Ruoqing turned her gaze, and said, "Rather than worrying so much about it every day, let's make an example of it."

"Catch a thief and beat him up first, and inform the ten miles and eight villages to scare him off,"

"Let his accomplices and other thieves see clearly that this is the end for anyone who dares to attack our Haitang Academy!"

Da Mo said: "This is a good idea, but how do we catch it? We have to think of a way."

Yang Huazhong said: "Dig a hole? Like we caught Butcher Chen and the others last time?"

Yang Ruoqing said: "It's a bit laborious to dig a hole. It will take several days for us to dig a hole that can be used as a trap."

"Last time, more than a dozen people dug together. More people are more powerful. This time, we want to make as little noise as possible, so we can't dig a hole," she said.

"Then Qing'er, what do you think?" Yang Huazhong asked.

Yang Ruoqing thought for a while, and said: "I remember that when Tang Yazi went hunting in the mountains, he used a kind of big iron clip, the kind that a roe deer could catch with a single step."

"I'll go back and find it, and send it to the school when it gets dark. Let's just catch a mouse and see who dares to steal rice from the school after eating the bear's heart."

……

When the night fell, everyone in the village took a shower early and climbed into bed to sleep.

Summer nights are sweltering. In the past, everyone would come out after supper to enjoy the cool with their cattail fans and talk about the mountains.

I can't see that kind of scene anymore.

Why?

hungry!
I'm so hungry, I'm not in the mood.

I just want to drink some porridge and lie still on the bed. If I move too much, I will get hungry easily.

So Yang Ruoqing and Blacksmith Luo took iron clips together, and under the cover of night, they quietly went up to Sleeping Niu Mountain behind the village.

Bury the iron trap near the hole in the backyard, and then wait for the thief to come.

Let's see who ruined his reputation in the village.

"Qing'er, you and your uncle go back to the village, I'll watch at night." Da Mo said.

The next morning, when Yang Ruoqing came to the school to deliver food, she couldn't wait to ask Damo: "How is it? Did you gain something last night?"

Da Mo shook his head, "I didn't come last night."

Yang Ruoqing said: "Then wait, we have plenty of patience."

Da Mo grinned, "That's right, let's fight to the end."

Seeing Da Mo holding a big broom in his hand, it was obvious that he was about to start cleaning the school yard.

At this point in time, the students have not yet come to the school to study.

"Brother Damo, you go, I'll look for Xiaoqin in the backyard." Yang Ruoqing said.

Da Mo nodded, turned around and began to sweep the floor.

In the backyard, when Yang Ruoqing came over, Xiaoqin had already woken up, she was coming out of the room where the students took a nap at noon, with two mattresses on her shoulders and put them on the two neatly trimmed perennial trees in the yard.

He patted the quilt with a feather duster again, and spread the quilt to bask in the sun.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing approaching, Xiaoqin smiled.

"Why did Qing'er come here so early?" she asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Isn't this worried about whether the thief over there has been caught or not? I'm so excited that I can't sleep."

Xiaoqin smiled.

At this time, Yuzhi also came out of the room, and smiled when she heard this.

"It's fine if you don't get caught, maybe the thief won't come here in the future." Here, Xiaoqin said.

Yang Ruoqing said: "It would be better if that thief knows how to get lost and knows how to return, so he won't come again. If he comes again, I'm sure he will regret it."

Xiaoqin said: "Don't even mention it, you can't blame the thief for thinking about going to our school, who gave us food in the school!"

"Right now, people from all over the world are saying that if they want their children not to starve to death, they shouldn't feel sorry for Shu Xiu, who sent his children to school, so that at least the children who are studying will still be able to eat. Drink enough."

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled.

Yuzhi also said: "Don't mention it, several aunts in our village asked me about it yesterday, let me help you ask Qinger about you."

"Ask me stupid?" Yang Ruoqing asked in surprise.

Yuzhi said: "They asked if they could still send their children to study now? I can't get the money for Shuxiu right now, and I will make up for it next year."

Before Yang Ruoqing could speak, Xiaoqin laughed.

"These people really know how to settle accounts." Xiaoqin said, "I just want to send the children to school for dinner. A while ago, people told me this almost every day!"

Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, "It's been there for a long time? Then why didn't you tell me about it?"

Xiaoqin said: "What's there to say? I don't care about those people who just want to take advantage of it. I just said that I didn't run the school and let them tell Qing'er directly."

Yang Ruoqing said: "No one came to talk about it."

Xiaoqin said: "I guess I know that I have no face to speak up. What's the difference between sending the child directly to someone else's house and letting others raise it for you?"

Yang Ruoqing nodded, "We are running a school, not a refuge."

"Besides, during such a famine period, other places can't get enough to eat. In our school, I pay subsidies to make the students have enough to eat."

"I've already raised so many, and my ability is limited. I can't send everything to me. I can't afford it!" she said.

"Even if you can afford it, there is no such way of raising it!" Xiaoqin said again.

Turning to look at Yuzhi: "Yuzhi, don't be soft-hearted, if someone tells you that, you just say we can't do it, let them come directly to Qing'er and talk."

Yuzhi nodded, "That's what I said too."

"That's good!" Xiaoqin said.

After a while, the two aunts Dayun and Osmanthus came to cook breakfast.

It just so happened that Yang Ruoqing also came to the school today, so she went to the kitchen to help them, and also had breakfast in the school before going back to the village.

"Aunt Osmanthus, what are you going to cook for breakfast this morning?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Osmanthus said: "As usual, cook a pot of multigrain porridge, and then steam sorghum steamed buns and corn steamed buns. A student gets a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns."

Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Yes, yes."

Dayun was fussing about in the rice vat over there, murmuring something.

"Dayun, what are you talking about with that person?" Guihua asked Dayun.

Yang Ruoqing was also curious and looked towards Dayun.

Dayun turned around with a strange look on his face.

"These rice grains are eaten faster these days than before. I used to cook at noon every day and weigh the rice into the pot according to the head. Everyone can eat."

"During this period of time, it seems that there is not enough to eat. The rice is harvested more and more every day, and the rice tank has been reduced by half. It shouldn't be..."

Hearing Dayun's words, Yang Ruoqing and Osmanthus fragrans both came to the rice vat and looked at it.
