Chapter 1295 Caught In The Act



However, Zhou Shuang and Sun Juan had no such relationship with Pu Tao, and did not even know her at all. Yet, Pu Tao had also stolen from them and the things she took were all valuable items.

Zhou Shuang realized that the silk clothes she had bought for her children had gone missing. For Sun Juan, it was a pair of gold earrings. They were not short of money, but they were unwilling to be bullied like this.

"Sister Sun, what do you think we should do? Should we tell Qiao Mei about this?" Zhou Shuang asked with a frown.

"How can we! She has only just completed her confinement period not long ago. Let's not disturb her and let her rest well. She's taking care of two children alone and must be more tired than us. We should settle this issue ourselves," Sun Juan said.

"Then should we go and look for that woman directly? Let's report it to the police! Let the police handle this matter! This way, we'll have a reason to tell someone about this matter. We don't have any evidence that it's Pu Tao who has stolen our stuff. Won't it be better to let the police investigate the matter?"

This was a good idea, but then Qiao Mei would know about it. Sun Juan still wanted to keep this matter within this house and not let the news spread.

The neighbors here spread news around very quickly. If they found out that there was such a thief among them, what would they think of the occupants of this house in the future!

Qiao Mei said that this was something... something known as corporate image!

"Then are we supposed to suffer in silence!" Zhou Shuang said aggrievedly.

"Let's think of a way. It's not like the two of us lack money, so let's just treat it as giving those things to a beggar. But if she comes to steal again, we'll catch hold of her!" Sun Juan said.

The two of them got to work immediately. Other than when they were sleeping, the two of them put all their attention on Pu Tao. One week later, the two of them discovered that Pu Tao was about to take action again.

"You're true experts. You can pluck corn faster than us," Sun Juan said enviously.

Wang Fang and Yang Mei plucked corn speedily and flawlessly. In slightly more than half a day, the two of them could pluck the amount which Zhou Shuang and Sun Juan used to complete in one day. In a month, it would be as if they had worked a week longer than Zhou Shuang and Sun Juan!

"Hmph, people in the city are so ignorant," Pu Tao muttered to herself as she sat in the corner.

The place was not big and they could all hear what Pu Tao said. No one paid her any attention. For people like Pu Tao, the more one cared about her opinion, the more she would try to push her luck.

"Sister Sun, you flatter us. This is all we know how to do," Wang Fang said politely.

"Come on, we're all the same. If the two of you continue like this, you'll definitely earn more than the two of us even though we worked here earlier!" Zhou Shuang said agitatedly.

"Really! Then I have to work harder!" Yang Mei said happily.

Zhou Shuang raised her voice and said loudly, "If you do a good job, Qiao Mei will even reward you! When Zhou Shuang and I were hospitalized, Qiao Mei gave us a lot of money. She even gave us jewelry during the festive seasons."

"Speaking of which, it's really strange. My pair of gold earrings have disappeared recently. I'm not just saddened by losing the earrings, but this pair of earrings is actually part of a set with a necklace! It's such a pity that it's no longer a nice set," Sun Juan said as she pretended to feel very regretful.

"Don't be anxious, Sister Sun. Out with the old, in with the new. Don't let this affect your mood," Wang Fang advised.

Just as everyone lowered their heads and got busy with their work, Pu Tao sneaked out through the back door. The four women exchanged glances and immediately took action.

Pu Tao ran very fast. After entering through the main door of the house, she rushed into Sun Juan's room immediately in a very familiar manner, as if it was her room.

"Where is it... Where did this b*tch put the gold necklace... I don't see it. Where else can she put it in such a small room..." Pu Tao crouched on the floor and searched under the bed carefully.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind her. "What are you doing!"

The furious look on Huang Xu's face gave the other four women a fright. They had never seen Huang Xu so irritable before. Perhaps it was possible for them to teach Pu Tao a lesson this time.n0VeLUsb.c0m

"I... I saw a rat running in. I wanted to help Sister Sun by catching the rat!" Pu Tao got up from the ground awkwardly and explained.

"Will you believe such an explanation yourself?" Sun Juan said mockingly.
