Chapter 11 The Thief
, the fastest update to Travel Through Ancient Times: The House of Shrews!
"Don't worry, I am the patriarch of Tianjia Village after all. I will definitely give these bastards a good beating."
Tian Yuanyuan clearly understands this hypocritical Li Zheng, and he is more nervous than anyone else as long as he gets the reputation of the village.
An old scoundrel who is seeking fame and reputation!
"You are still thoughtful in your work." Tian Yuanyuan complimented her against her will.
Li nodded, seeming to find it very useful.
Tian Yuanyuan looked at these naughty children and saw that they were not afraid of anything, so he knew that their parents were not easy to mess with.
As the saying goes, behind a naughty child there must be a naughty parent.
After a while, a fat and dark aunt ran over crying. Before she even saw the child, she pointed at the trees and scolded the trees: "Which shameless bitch is biting the roots of my tree and stealing things!"
After a few words, he not only scolded Tian Yuanyuan but also Li Zheng. Li Zheng's eyes were as wide as copper bells. He pointed at the village woman with a red face and said, "What are you talking about! Your son is being punished for stealing other people's things."
You are blocking him! You still have the nerve to curse! For generations, the Lao Tian family has always had a clean family tradition, and there has never been anyone with dirty hands and feet! I even wonder if your son is a descendant of the Lao Tian family!"
This is really heartbreaking! As soon as she finished speaking, the black-faced woman sat on the ground, slapped her thighs and cried: "I'm not alive anymore! I'm safe and sound, don't mess with me! Why am I not a son of the Lao Tian family?"
? Even if you are honest, you can’t talk nonsense! I’m not alive anymore! I’m going to hang myself!”
How could Li Zheng be afraid of a peasant woman acting inappropriately? He said angrily: "I will die today and be buried tomorrow. If I find someone the day after tomorrow, I will go to Youniu as a matchmaker! Look at what you look like!"
The naughty wife immediately did not dare to speak. At this time, other naughty mothers also arrived one after another.
All the people who came were female generals, and not a single father came.
There were those who wanted to play the emotional card without admitting it, and those who said a few nice words to Tian Yuanyuan in an attempt to deceive them, were all pushed back by her without a word of softness or force.
She said: "I listen to Li Zheng. Li Zheng will definitely give us an explanation!"
This sentence is like a raging fire cooking oil, flowers are blooming, and it is like pushing yourself forward, which means you can't help it.
He glanced at Tianyuanyuan with a serious look, and saw that she looked sad. Thinking of the thirty big bucks, he felt a little uncomfortable, as if the whole thing had been planned by her.
However, the money he can earn in a year is only two taels of silver. Thirty taels of silver is almost equivalent to one month's salary. Moreover, people in the village who come to him for work and give him some vegetables are considered a good person, not to mention that they are more generous and give them directly.
money.
This is really a hot potato. If you don't handle it well, you are afraid that she will reveal that she took bribes.
He thought for a moment and said to the parents of those naughty children: "The evidence that you children stole things is conclusive! Stop making excuses there! What did you children steal?"
Parents Xiong asked: What did you get when you went to other people’s houses?
A fat and naughty kid said: "Her family has nothing, and we haven't stolen anything."
"You're talking nonsense!" A skinny naughty kid pointed at him and said, "I picked up a copper plate in the ground. He wanted my copper plate. If I didn't give it to him, he would beat me..." Before he could finish speaking, he burst into tears.
stand up!
"Tree roots are the worst thing. Look at my little bitch who always bullies him!" A similarly skinny woman looked at the fat aunt who came first with disgust.
The fat aunt spat: "How can my filial and smart tree root steal other people's things or hit them! Even stealing is instigated by your children!"
"Sister-in-law Yingxiang, that's not what you said! My boss also said that your tree root hands are the craziest." Another aunt refused and said without any shame: "Your mother-in-law is famous for having three hands.
They say that my nephew is like my uncle, so he just follows your old Liu roots!"
"Aunt Fang, you are really right!" Goudan Niang agreed.
"What did you say, stinky bitch?! Let's see how I teach you a lesson!" After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to hit someone.
Li Zheng saw these girls chattering non-stop and wanted to get involved, so he shouted angrily: "Are you acting bad in front of me? How do you usually teach your children to be sneaky and unclean!"
When several women saw that he was angry, they immediately stopped and muttered curses in a low voice.
Li Zheng looked at Tian Yuanyuan: "Tian Dahua, go and see what is missing from your home?"
Tian Yuanyuan wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes and walked into his hut.
The shabby bedding was thrown aside, with mud marks all over it. The pottery basin was also broken, and the remaining brown rice porridge was scattered on the floor. The bowl was smashed to pieces, and the chopsticks were broken... These are really terrible.
Star, making her room a mess.
Fortunately, she had hid the hoe, basket, kitchen knife, salt and the new brown rice she bought in the haystack behind the house in advance. What was left in the house was just what Wang Pandi had sent to her at that time, and had already gone out of the way.
I'm not afraid of people knowing.
There are still traces of digging on the ground in the house. These bastards really worked hard to find the copper plates she deliberately threw on the ground.
Yes, the money was bait. She never thought that the thieves were children. Throwing the money away was just a way to delay time. But it was unexpected that these bastards could fight over a few coins.
!It was because of the fight that he was blocked!
She clicked her tongue twice and left the hut.
Li Zheng asked: "How is it?"
Tian Yuanyuan burst into tears: "Everything in my house was basically destroyed, the pottery pots were broken, and the final food rations were lost... How will I live in the future... and my last bit of savings is gone..."
"You heard it, you will compensate Tian Dahua's family for all the losses!"
"Why, how do you know it was my son who did it!"
"That's right! They are just children, what bad things can they do!"
"That's right! You have the nerve to let us pay for that little thing. We are all neighbors. If you don't look up when you look down, just forget it!"
You naughty bitches, you are saying haha, what a child does is not a bad thing!
But Tianyuanyuan would not just let it go. She covered her face and started to cry.
The orphaned girl was helpless, and her plaintive and melancholy crying was very much like the sad female ghost in the middle of the night a few days ago.
Everyone present was inexplicably confused, and Li Zheng thought of letting it go, but when he thought of thirty big bucks, he felt uncomfortable.
"Stop crying! Just tell me if you need anything!"
Tian Yuanyuan said sobbingly: "I want them to give me a pottery basin, a bowl, a pair of chopsticks, and enough food to feed me for a few days...and I have twenty big bucks..."
"My dear! You are so poor that you don't even have enough money to buy a change of clothes?" Shugen Niang retorted in a fuss.
Tian Yuanyuan said: "It rained a few days ago, so I collected the mushrooms and took them to the town to sell them to earn money. Although I used some for some reasons, there are still twenty of them left! But I didn't find them just now...
…Woooo…I’m helpless, how hard it is to make money!…Woooo…”
When Tian Yuanyuan talked about money, he gave Satomasa a pleading look.
