A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 38 38. Thieves Relatives

It's now!

Taking advantage of the faint moonlight coming in from outside the door, Xin Changning made a decisive move, jumped over and stuck the scissors in the thief's hand.Immediately, a tragic man's howl was heard.

"Catch the thief, there's a thief!" She gathered all her strength and kicked the thief in the stomach, kicked him out of the door, and then immediately closed the door and screamed at the top of her voice.

"What, there are thieves, Changning..." Mrs. Liu finally woke up.

"Mother, there are thieves, just outside, come and catch the thieves." Xin Changning pushed hard against the door, and seeing Liu Shi wake up, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to shout.

"Ah, catch the thief, catch the thief!" Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she also yelled.

In the silent night, the mother and daughter's screams quickly woke up the neighbors. The thief fled in a hurry, and was caught in a net by Miao Ze, who was chasing after him at the entrance of the village.

"Brother Miao, don't, please let me go!" the thief begged repeatedly.

"Second Brother Xin, why is it you?" Hearing the familiar voice, Miao Ze came closer and was stunned.

"Brother Miao, I beg you to let me survive." Taking advantage of Miao Ze's stupefied effort, the second son Xin tried his best to lift the net and quickly ran away.

"Miao Ze, why did you let him run away? There hasn't been any robbers in our village for a long time." Seeing Miao Ze standing there in a daze, the villagers who chased after him couldn't help complaining.

"Hey, I, my net is broken..."

After all, Xin's second son is Xin Changning's second uncle, and spreading such a scandal would not do Xin Changning any good. Miao Ze hesitated and chose to conceal it.

After he returned, the courtyard of Xin Changning's house was already crowded with villagers who had heard the news. After hearing that Xin Changning had stabbed the thief's hand, everyone came up with suggestions and discussed how to find out the thief.

But after all, it was late at night and it was still dark. After discussing for a while, everyone went home to catch up on sleep.

Miao Ze didn't dare to mention this matter in front of others, so he quietly told Yang Yulan, and asked her to wait for everyone to leave and tell Liu Shi to be wary of Xin's second family.

"What, it turned out to be Changning's second uncle? He, how could he do such a thing? I'm so poor that I almost can't afford to eat. How can there be anything for him to worry about?"

Hearing this news, Liu's eyes widened in surprise, and he couldn't believe it for a moment.

"Mother, you forgot, I just changed the hairpin into money and bought something back today." When he heard that it was the Xin family again, Xin Changning was furious, and said angrily, "It must be my sister who told him when she went back and told him to hear it, and she was arrested." He missed it."

"I've heard people say that Second Brother Xin's bets have been getting bigger and bigger recently." Yang Yulan also sighed: "It must be that he lost a lot and had nowhere to get money, so he started thinking about it."

"That doesn't make us orphans and widowed mothers. It's still a family. Does he have a conscience?" Xin Changning said angrily: "Uncle Miao should have caught him on the spot and let him parade in the street. There's no face to speak of."

"I can't write two Xin characters in one stroke. It's really embarrassing to catch him. You and Changxi don't lose face! Anyway, they were recognized. Forgive him for not coming next time."

Yang Yulan knew that anyone would be annoyed when encountering this kind of thing, so she could only shake her head and comfort Changning with kind words.

"No, I can't swallow this breath!"

Xin Changning was full of anger, and asked: "Mother, didn't my father separate from the family back then? Now that the family is separated, it is not a family anymore, so why worry so much. Just go out and say that the thief is a second child." Uncle, anyway, he has a wound on his hand, so he can't hide it."
