Chapter 83

Yuan Wei said, winking mischievously towards Zhou Qi, who had already walked directly in front of Wang Cuixiang and the others, while Zhou nodded, he stretched out his hand to grab it.

Then Yuan Wei smiled heartily and said, "Oh! I caught you!"

After saying that, Zhou Qi quickly grabbed the collars of the two people's back coats, lifted them up, and looked up to see Li Changhai and a person he didn't know.

But Wang Cuixiang and another person saw the person next to them being taken away with their own eyes, and immediately turned around and ran away.

Like an owl catching a mouse, Yuan Wei immediately chased after it.

A while later, Yuan Wei and Zhou Qi met Zhao Liu brothers when they were about to reach Lugan.

Zhou Qi saw that the two Zhao Liu brothers were also in one hand and one in the other, so he blinked at Zhao Liu.

Good guy!Originally, I thought that tonight's actions were nothing but the young lady's unfounded worries, but I didn't know that not only the harvest was huge, but the process of arresting people was also interesting and fun.

In this room, Zhao Liu and others and a dog are pushing people to report to Mr. Zheng, while in the other room, Zheng Lanlan is still sewing the rest of the fabric by the brightness of the candlelight.

Standing aside, Zhao Tang picked up the scissors placed aside, cut off the top section of wick, and persuaded:

"Miss! It's almost three o'clock! Close your eyes and take a rest! The light is not good, don't sew clothes! Be careful to damage your eyes!"

Hearing this, Zheng Lanlan raised her hand and rubbed the back of her neck, stretched her waist again, yawned, and then asked: "Even if I sleep, I can't sleep well! It's better not to sleep! By the way, Xiaotang, Go outside and see if there is any movement."

Zhao Tang withdrew his hand from rubbing Zheng Lanlan's shoulders, and Yiyan went out.

It's just that as soon as she opened the door of Zheng's house, she saw a group of people and a dog walking towards here.

She raised her voice and asked, "Father!! Are you guys back?"

Although the distance was still several hundred meters away, Zhao Liu could hear the crisp and clear voice accurately.

Zhao Liu replied: "We are the ones who came back! We also brought back a few food thieves! And some things to buy food, go and report to Miss and Master."

"Okay! I'll go right now!"

After finishing speaking, regardless of the open door, he rushed to knock on the door of Zheng Fu's room: "My lord! My father and the others caught a few grain thieves and some food stuff."

Zheng Fu, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up suddenly, and was about to get angry, but after hearing what Zhao Tang said, he quickly turned over, picked up the clothes hanging on the hanger, and walked towards the door while wearing them .

There was undisguised surprise in his tone: "Did you really catch it? How many more?! Have you reached the door now?"

"Yes, sir! I just listened to the lady's order to see if there was any movement. As soon as I opened the door, I saw my father and the others arresting several people and walking this way. My father asked me to call the master and miss."

Zheng Fu put on his clothes, opened the door, waved his hand and said, "Okay! I see, go and call the young lady to the yard."

"Yes!"

After a while, the front yard of Zheng's house was brightly lit.

Zheng Fu sat at the head, Zheng Lanlan sat next to him, Uncle Ma stood behind them, Chen You and Wu Xing each held a torch and stood beside Zheng Fu and Zheng Lanlan.

Zhao Liu, Zhao Sanliu, Yuan Wei, and Zhou Qi held torches and stood near the door in case someone jumped up and ran away in a hurry.

At this time, except for Zhou Qi's grandfather who was relatively old and was not woken up, no matter it was Zhao Liu's wife, Chen You's mother, or Yuan Wei's wife, they were all standing in the yard with lanterns, watching quietly. A few food thieves kneeling on the ground in a panic.

Zheng Fu took a sip of tea, and slowly put the teacup on the tea table, and then Mance calmly said, "Everyone raise their heads!"

The person kneeling on the ground kept his head down as if he hadn't heard it.

Zheng Fu said again with a serious face: "Everyone raise their heads! I want to see who is so bold!"

The eight people kneeling on the ground remained unmoved.

Zheng Fu angrily picked up the teacup and threw it on the ground: "Now you know you dare not let me see you? Then when you stole food, did you think that I would catch you? We are all from the same village! Why do you have to do such a thing?

I told everyone yesterday morning that if you work hard and don't steal or play tricks, you will get twelve cents a day!This is much more than the wages in the past!What else are you dissatisfied with?So that they came to steal my food?ah? "

Seeing that Zheng Fu was really angry, Zheng Lanlan hurriedly got up and comforted Zheng Fu's chest: "Daddy! There's no need to get angry with them! Calm down!"

Zheng Fu covered his suddenly aching head, slowly sat on the chair with Zheng Lanlan's support, and continued angrily:
"A few days ago, Lan Lan told the kitchen to boil water, and someone gave the long-term workers two water bottles to boil every day! Although this is nothing, but every afternoon, I also ordered someone to send you a few pieces of watermelon to quench your thirst!

This time, he persuaded me to give you a raise in wages!I am afraid that you are not interested in your work, and even said that I will reward you!See for yourself!What have you all done?What are you dissatisfied with! !
In the middle of the night before I announce the autumn harvest, come to steal food! ! "

What he said was justified and well-founded, and the sensational meaning was profound.

As far as Ben was concerned, guilt and self-blame fermented in his heart for the medicine money his mother needed, and for Brother Li Changhe who had embarked on this road.

Li Changhe was hesitating on the verge of speaking or not, and Zheng Fu, who was at the top, started talking again.

"As long as you stand up now, tell me where the rice is hidden, and tell me the reason for doing so, I can handle it according to my discretion! Otherwise! After a while, the county magistrate will send someone here, and everything will be hard to say!"

Li Changhe's heart trembled, thinking that if he just raised his head like this at this moment, and took over his and his brother's difficulties and related responsibilities, would the rich man Zheng let them go?

However, Li Changhe suddenly remembered that if he took the responsibility like this, wouldn't his younger brother also have to take the blame stupidly?Will there be no one to take care of my mother by then?

Thinking so, Li Changhe looked at Li Changhe who was kneeling by his side with his drooping head.

Li Changhe glanced at Li Changhe as if in response, his eyes seemed to be asking, do you want to tell rich man Zheng the reason now?
Li Changhe rolled his eyes, signaled to Li Changjiang to be calm, then raised his head with a 'swish', crying:

"Master Zheng! We have no other choice! My mother was ill some time ago and needed a lot of money for medical treatment! We have no choice! That's why we came up with such a bad idea!"

Jin Jin, who bared his teeth and stared at the Li Changhe brothers, barked fiercely after seeing Li Changhe raised his head.

Zheng Fu was taken aback by the black face that suddenly appeared in front of him.Do not!It cannot be said to be a black face, because the whole face is covered with wet mud, and only the rough yellow teeth and a trace of the whites of the eyes can be seen.

Without caring to stop Jin Jin, Zheng Fu asked, "Who are you? Why are you so dark?"

It turned out that when the Li Changhe brothers were being chased by Jin Jin, their bodies were covered in wet mud, and their faces were even covered in black mud. It was already hard to see who this person was.
