Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 8176
On the night when Luo Fengtang left Changping Village, another house in Changping Village was burglarized.

"I've never seen such a worthless thief. Two days ago, I stole a bowl of meat dishes from Lao Jiangtou. Last night, I stole corn cobs and chili skewers hanging from the eaves of old Mrs. Chen's house in the south of the village."

While eating breakfast, Mrs. Liu rushed over to the Luo family, talking to Wang Cuilian and Mrs. Sun about the news she had just heard.

"Now people are saying that it's not a thief at all, but a reincarnation of a starving ghost!"

Both Wang Cuilian and Sun were dumbfounded by this style of thief.

Wang Cuilian said: "I'm afraid they are not some big boys? They don't dare to steal those valuable belongings, they only dare to steal in food."

Mrs. Sun nodded: "Sister-in-law Cuilian and I wanted to go together. If we were really serious thieves, we wouldn't have to pry open the door or climb the windows. What kind of money is worth stealing?"

Mrs. Liu added: "There are also people outside who talk to you like this, and some people say that this thief is a woman and has no power to restrain the chicken, so I can only pick up the little food and take it back to feed the family. !"

Wang Cuilian and Mrs. Sun looked at each other, and both shook their heads, with both condemnation and sympathy in their eyes.

"It's just that the crops are not good this year. There was so much water in early summer that the crops were all flooded."

"If the crops are plentiful like in previous years, we won't have to go out and sneak around in the cold night." Sun said again.

"Hey, sister-in-law three, you are really a kind person. You can help the thief talk. If you want me to tell you, people are poor and ambitious, so you can't steal other people's things no matter what." Liu curled her lips and mentioned the thief's The thing is, it was full of anger, and the sense of justice burst out at this moment.

"Third sister-in-law, sister-in-law Cuilian, think about it, those thieves don't steal food from those prosperous families, but focus on those lonely old men and old ladies."

"What does this mean? It means that the thief himself is a bully and a coward!"

After Liu's analysis, Wang Cuilian and Sun also felt that the thief was really dishonest.

Picking soft persimmons, is it easy for a widowed old man to get something to eat?
Old Jiangtou's bowl of meat dishes was filially served by Jiang Xianjun and his young couple, and the old man fell into the thief's mouth without taking a bite.

As for the old Mrs. Chen, it is even more pitiful, her son and daughter-in-law are not filial, and the old lady is still groping in the fields and vegetable gardens at an old age, ordering corn sticks to feed chickens and ducks, is it easy?

No taste, so no taste.

"Where's my third brother?" Mrs. Liu looked around and asked suddenly.

Sun said: "He went to the pasture early in the morning. Duo'er is not suitable for heavy work now, and Shengnan hasn't come back yet. Your third brother has gone to help the big brother of the cattle dealer cut hay."

In late autumn, the rice in Shiliba Village is ripe, and the cattle dealers and other big cattle farmers have to go around to buy forage in the crop fields and return it to dry for preparation.

There are dozens of cows in the pasture, and when the grass outside dies in winter, they will have to rely on the forage that has been stored in advance to survive the winter.

Yang Huazhong went to the pasture early in the morning to help cut hay fodder. If he had nothing else to do, he would have to eat lunch before returning to the village.

"My third brother is not worried about what he is doing here. There are thieves in the village, and everyone will come to him for advice later." Liu said again.

Sun said: "He's not at home, so we have to wait until the afternoon to ask for advice."

Mrs. Liu said again: "Even if you ask for advice, my third brother is not omnipotent. Can you let Lizheng go over there at night to help everyone watch the door?"

Sun smiled, "It's not enough to watch the door, but if this thief continues to steal like this, he must think of a way!"

Several women chatted and discussed countermeasures.

The three chatterboxes opened up, and they really expressed their opinions and proposed many countermeasures.

Sun said: "Find a few more watchmen, and patrol the village back and forth at night."

Wang Cuilian said: "Thanks to that old dog Ahuang, Uncle Jiang's family let everyone raise more dogs to look after the house."

Mrs. Liu said: "Let me see, the best way is to strengthen all the door locks at home, tie a rope to the courtyard door, pull it to the kitchen door, and then hang it in a circle to the main room door. Hang several bells, as long as a thief touches it, it will ring..."

……

Jinghua Garden.

Mo Anbai hid behind the combined shield.

From a distance, a long iron clip was used to clamp the edge of the box, and the box was carefully opened bit by bit.

"You are too careful."

Seeing Mo Anbai's appearance, Luo Xingchen smiled.

"Young master, you don't know. Once before, my family went to dig an ancient tomb and found a similar box. At that time, several of us went there together. After opening the box, poisonous smoke was emitted from the box. Oil, etc., several mechanisms..."

"Several people in our group died, and only three survived." Mo Anbai said.

"Who are the people with you?"

Luo Xingchen knew that those people were definitely not Ah Qing's disciples.

"They are all from the Jianghu, with three religions and nine streams, and the leader of our group is a member of the Bandit Sect. However, when the ancient tomb was excavated, the eldest brother of the Bandit Sect was not there, and we were inexperienced."

Mo An Bai said.

"Later, those of us who survived will learn the lesson, bring all the tools with us every time, make a perfect plan, and never take any more risks."

"Indeed, it's right to prepare in advance." Luo Xingchen nodded.

However, this time, Mo Anbai's preparations were all in vain.

She opened the box.

However, no concealed weapon emerged from the box.

There are only a few books in it, and there are also a few small jade bottles.

"This time, the ancestor didn't set a trap." Mo Anbai said in surprise.

"The old ancestor didn't go crazy every time." Luo Xingchen smiled slightly.

"Okay, let's go read some books."

Mo Anbai's face was blushing, and there was already excitement in his eyes.

She walked quickly to the box and looked through the books in the box.

The book in the box is well preserved. The writing on the book is an ancient script from a hundred years ago, which is quite different from the current writing, but this is not a problem for Mo Anbai.

"There is a complete version of the Mohist mentality!"

Mo Anbai said happily.

"That's good, let's take the book back and read it." Luo Xingchen suggested.

Now, they were by the fence, and although there was a light nearby, the light was so dim that it was barely discernible, not a good place to read.

In Jinghua Garden, a pavilion has already been vacated.

And tonight, Mo Anbai and Luo Xingchen lived in the pavilion.

On the second floor of the pavilion, they had already brought up the entire small box.

As for the hole under the wall, before leaving, Mo Anbai used tools to restore it, as long as you don't look closely, you won't see too many traces.

Mo Anbai was reading with the Mohist mentality, while Luo Xingchen was flipping through the other books inside.
