Siheyuan: The Villain's Cool Life

When Xu Damao saw it, his face suddenly flushed.
"If you didn't steal my chicken, then who did?"
"Fuck... who stole it? Why are you looking for me, the chicken thief?"
"No, we need to hold a meeting. I need to hold a meeting for the whole courtyard. There's a chicken thief in our courtyard."
After saying this, Xu Damao stuffed the ticket to Sha Zhu and ran out.
"You grandson..." Sha Zhu cursed at Xu Damao.
"Silly... No, Zhuzi, we are also worried about our chickens. Don't mind me. I'm sorry for disturbing you just now. These candies are for the children at home to sweeten their mouths." Lou Xiaoe took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket and placed them on the table, then followed Xu Damao out.
Shen He sighed, it seems that this silly Zhu really has changed his fate.
You even need a ticket to buy chicken.
I pulled my eldest sister and followed her out the door.
The people in the yard had been blocking the door for a long time. Although things were always lost in the yard, they were just small things like needles and thread. Today it was a coal ball, tomorrow it was a brick or half a cabbage.
Most people wouldn't care about this. You can't just curse at the people in the yard for a long time just for half a cabbage and a piece of coal, right?
But today a chicken was lost in the yard, which is a big deal.
Not to mention a lot, a chicken lays one egg a day.
These eggs are bought by the kilogram. The small ones can be worth three or four cents each, while the big ones can cost more than five cents.
Pigeon eggs, regardless of size, are worth 5 to 7 cents.
Although the black market is being severely suppressed now, there are always people who lack things, and where there is a shortage, there is supply.
A chicken costs just over one dollar a month.
Losing a chicken would be like the sky falling in most people's homes.
Chicken butt bank is not just talk.
Another thing is that the thief in the yard started to steal the big things from everyone's house.
In the past, the little thing could satisfy his desires, but now it has started to target chickens.
After stealing a chicken this time, the thief will definitely not be interested in coal briquettes, half a cabbage or the like.
Everyone in the yard felt a pang of fear in their hearts, and they had to keep a close eye on the things at home from now on.
Or in other words...find the thief in the yard.
Otherwise, you have to be on guard at home in the future. You’re not afraid of thieves stealing, but you’re afraid of thieves thinking about it. How can you have so much time to be on guard against thieves all day long?
So everyone who had eaten in the yard followed Xu Damao to the front yard to find Yan Bugui.
"What? The chicken is lost?"
Yan Bugui adjusted his glasses when he went out, and said with a look of surprise, but he was complaining in his heart, "You kid didn't treat me to dinner, so the chicken was lost, you deserve it."
"Uncle, if you don't do anything about it, I'll call the street office."
"Hey, hey...it's not worth it for Xu Damao to go to the neighborhood office just for a chicken. Gather everyone in the compound and explain the stakes. They're all neighbors. Maybe someone's kid did it, just playing a prank on you. If you call the neighborhood office, will they do anything or not?"
"Okay... I'll listen to you. Let's have the meeting. Hurry up, or my chicken will be put into the pot."
"Look, look, you're anxious again.
Jiecheng, Jiefang, go and tell everyone in the yard, there's a meeting in the front yard, everyone, adults and children, must come today."
The two men sighed, ran out and started calling people from house to house.
In fact, many people don’t need to be called at home, they have already come out.
Some people lock their doors tightly and won't respond no matter how you call them.
This is a bit like covering one's ears and stealing the bell.
Jia Zhang was cursing at home, Zhang Youfu was also cursing, and Bang Geng was even more so.
It can be seen that no one in this family is a good person.
'Aunt Jia opened the door and held a meeting for the whole courtyard in the front yard.
Aunt Jia...' Yan Jiecheng knocked on the door with all his might, as if he would not give up until the other party opened the door.
Then I leaned over and sniffed through the crack in the door. OK, there was a very faint smell of meat.
Why can Yan Jiecheng smell it? Try not eating meat for two months, and you will be able to smell it too.
Chapter 315: Stealing a Chicken to Hold a Meeting
"Why are you knocking, you little bastard? There's no one at home, and we're not attending any whole-house meeting." Zhang Youfu was a little annoyed.
"Uh...even those who live here count. Hurry up, the old man in the compound said everyone should get one."
"If we don't participate, what can he do to me?"
"Okay, you said it, don't regret it." Yan Jiecheng said and went to call the other families out.
When I came back, I met Yi Zhonghai.
"Master Yi, you have a good relationship with the Jia family, so please call them. Not joining would hinder unity."
Yi Zhonghai looked at Yan Jiecheng and nodded. After all, their family was always connected with Yi Zhonghai's family. He went to the door and knocked.
Before Yi Zhonghai could speak, someone cursed him from inside, "You little bastard, I gave you face just now, didn't I? If you knock on the door again, I'll go out and kill you."
Yi Zhonghai's forehead was black when he heard it. "I am Yi Zhonghai, the lucky one who opened the door."
"Ah... Master? Please wait a moment, I will open the door."
Since Yi Zhonghai was there, Zhang Youfu dared not refuse to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, a smell of stinky feet and other mixed smells almost made Yi Zhonghai fall.
However, Yan Jiecheng could still tell from the smell that it was meat, chicken.
Well...as to whether it was roasted chicken or grilled chicken...he couldn't tell because he had never eaten it.
This nose is beyond the reach of police dogs.
"Ahem... Master, I'm tired after coming back and just wanted to take a rest. I didn't know it was you outside. You wouldn't let me rest well at night. I don't know what kind of meeting you're having." Zhang Youfu went out and saw Yi Zhonghai, who looked not very good, so he quickly made an excuse.
"Well, someone stole a chicken in the compound, and the meeting was held to discuss this matter... Well, maybe someone stole the chicken just to play a prank on Xu Damao, to scare them. If the chicken is still alive, Xu Damao would be very easy to talk to if we return it to the owner." Yi Zhonghai looked Zhang Youfu in the eye as he spoke.
Who is Yi Zhonghai? He is a veteran. It was obvious from the first half of his sentence that Xu Damao's chicken must be related to this family. As for whether Zhang Youfu stole it, that was unknown.
Yi Zhonghai never thought that Banggeng, that little boy, could steal the chicken.
He glanced at Zhang Youfu meaningfully, then looked at Banggeng and Jia Zhangshi who followed him out.
There was no obvious smell on them, which probably meant that the chicken had been stolen but not eaten yet, which left room for manipulation.
Just deny it later.
"Let's go and see what's going on. We live in the same compound, so we must unite and obey the call."
"Yes, Master is right."
Yan Jiecheng curled his lips, moved a little further away from Yi Zhonghai and the Jia family, and ran a few steps to the front yard.
At this time, most of the people in the yard had arrived.
Only a few people didn't come.
The sick old lady and Yi Zhonghai's wife.
Xu Damao's wife went home. There are 6 children in the family.
Qin Huairu also returned home. There was a room full of children watching over the freshly stewed chicken at home.
It can be said that this is the most complete gathering in the compound except for the New Year's meeting.
"Neighbors, this is what a meeting is like..." Yan Bugui didn't sit there, but stood in the middle and started talking to everyone.
Just now, he had learned from Xu Damao about the incident of losing the chicken and the whole process.
It was also said that if this was someone else's child, or if someone picked it up and returned it, the matter would not be pursued. Matters concerning the compound would be resolved at the compound meeting.
If the chicken theft incident is reported to the street office and then to the police station, it will not be something that can be resolved by just talking about it.
There was a yard two streets ahead. Someone stole five cabbages there and was sentenced to three years in prison when he was caught.
He is still in a labor camp on the edge of Beijing. I heard that he has become very thin.
People outside can’t even get enough to eat, so how can prisoners want to eat enough? What are they thinking?
Yan Bugui said that this incident was to highlight the seriousness of stealing chickens.
At best, 5 cabbages are worth 5 eggs.
It was a chicken with 6 eggs, all lost.
Yan Bugui could imagine how serious the crime was. If he was sentenced to 10 to 20 years, this man would definitely be ruined. The key point was that it was not worth it for a chicken.
"As for the truth, I've made it clear to everyone. If you commit a crime, the police will find you. If you don't admit it now, it will be too late when the police arrive.
The police won't listen. Let's talk about whether we should reconcile or get sentenced or beaten. Don't blame the people in the yard for being ruthless. Your family will also suffer.
Besides, we will not tolerate a family of chicken thieves living in our yard.
Speak up, this is your last chance.
This chicken came out of the chicken coop in Xu Damao's house. Whoever picked it up can tell us what happened. The eggs will be given by Xu Damao to the person who picked up the chicken.
We are all from the same compound, so don't make a scene over a chicken."
After Yan Bugui finished speaking, he looked up at the crowd.
Many people also agree with Yan Bugui's statement.
It is really not worth it to go to jail for ten or twenty years for a chicken, unless this chicken is not that chicken, but this chicken is still a chicken.
After waiting for a long time, everyone in the yard was talking to each other but no one came out to admit it.
Only Yi Zhonghai glanced at the three members of the Jia family from time to time in the crowd.
Now Yi Zhonghai just wants to get away with this matter, but he really can't let the police come. Yan Bugui is right. If the police come, they will definitely find out who stole the chicken.
