Chapter 20
Nowadays, when there is food theft, everyone starts to panic.

"Old man, you must catch that damned thief, that is sweet food for our family." The daughter-in-law of the city lord kept crying.

The old man, the city lord, looked at his wife and mother-in-law with a pensive expression.

He also went to the kitchen to check his cabinet just now, except that the cabinet was lifted from the back, there was no other traces.

From this aspect alone, the other party should be very familiar with his family, and can even easily find out where his family's food is stored.

It can be seen that it was made by acquaintances, but they don't have any evidence. Every household in the whole Beicheng has some corn bread and chaff. How can he find out?
If you want to check this matter, it is simply impossible.

After hesitating for a while, he came to his wife and stretched out his hand to pull her: "Get up, what's the proper way to sit on the ground?"

"What? Old man, you don't plan to check it?" The old woman looked at her old man in disbelief.

"Forget about it, just put things away in the future."

"No, this matter must be investigated thoroughly." The old woman refused to let go.

"Stupid, if the other party can do it without leaking water, then it can be seen that the other party's technique is very clever. Don't you have to lose your life to be happy?"

Being scolded by the old man like that, the old woman didn't dare to shout anymore, she looked at the old man nervously, "You, you mean, that man will kill?"

As soon as she said this, the people around her were all sighing, and even rejoicing.

"Hmph, think about it for yourself. From now on, every household will put away their own food, so that they won't be stolen any more. Let's all disperse." The city lord turned around and left after speaking.

All the people present quickly headed home, and when they got home, they quickly hid all the only food in their home.

This incident is like an episode, and it will be forgotten as soon as it goes.

Leng Xuesheng didn't stop what she was doing until evening. However, there was a set of clothes in front of her.The general outline of the clothes can still be seen, but if you look closely, it can only show that the workmanship is really poor.

Leng Xuesheng rubbed her fingers, those needles pricked her several times in the afternoon, almost all ten fingers had a needle hole.

However, the clothes are finally ready.

At night, she ate a bun and waited for everyone to fall asleep, then she went out to wash herself, and then put on new clothes.

However, there were people guarding the city that night. This was also discussed by the people of Beicheng.

When Leng Xuesheng came out, she noticed that something was wrong nearby, so she hid in the dark and carefully observed the entire main street of Beicheng.

It didn't take long for her to see a group of men holding torches walking around the city, as if they were checking for something.

When the group of men walked past her while talking, she realized that they were guarding against thieves.

It seems that they stole the food from the city lord's house, and they have already started to take precautions.

This is not a good thing. It seems that stealing food can no longer be done.

Turning around, she headed towards Leng's house. The location of Leng's house is relatively remote, so when she came, the members of Leng's family had already rested. She found a wooden barrel in the courtyard, turned around and left quickly with the barrel in hand.
