Chapter 86 - Capturing thieves
When he got home, he found the courtyard door was still ajar. Without a doubt, he had come to steal something.
Seeing that the courtyard door was open, Lee's hurriedly jumped off the oxcart and ran inside to see if he had lost anything.
The few of them hurriedly got off the oxcart and ran into the house to see if they had lost anything.
"Aiya, what should I do? I lost my silver." The first thing Lee's did after entering was to check if the silver was still there. In the end, he found out that he had hidden it in such a hidden place and lost it in the end.
Woo woo … *
A few days ago, Mo Xiao Yan gave Lee's a large amount of silver. Originally, Lee's wanted to help him keep it, but he would have to give it to her in the future.
Although it was only a dozen or so silver, it was still a huge sum in the eyes of the Lee's.
Hearing Lee's's wails, Mo Xiao Yan hurriedly ran out from the house.
"Mom, come in and sit." Mo Xiao Yan dragged Lee's into the house.
"Xiao Yan, what do we do now? Mother lost the 10 + taels of silver you gave me." Lee's wanted to cut the thief who stole things into a thousand pieces right now.
"Mom, don't be sad yet, let's think of a way." Mo Xiao Yan consoled.
Lee's thought that since it had already been stolen, there was definitely no way to find it. His heart was about to die from the pain.
He was usually so thrifty, but today he had actually lost more than ten taels of silver. He was sure that he would not be able to accept this fact for a while.
Mo Lin Yu and Liu Yue Mei, who were at the side, did not know how to persuade his.
"Who the hell is this guy? He actually snuck into our house, he's pissing me off!" The more Lee's thought about it, the angrier he became.
"Mom, how about we go to town tomorrow, and then Big Bro and I will get off the oxcart. At that time, we'll hide somewhere outside the yard and see if that thief will come back." Mo Xiao Yan also only made a bet, he was not sure if the thief would come again.
Since they were able to come here for two days in a row to steal, it was very likely that they were people from the village.
At night, the whole family went to sleep early, but because Lee's and Mo Da Lin lost their money, they were so angry that they didn't sleep the entire night.
The second day, Mo Xiao Yan and Mo Lin Yu got off the oxcart and walked back to the village entrance.
"Xiao Yan, do you think this thief won't come today?" Mo Lin Yu was worried that if he did not come, he would not know who that person was.
"Big Brother, are you still hoping for the thief to come?" Mo Xiao Yan joked.
"Aiya, I didn't mean that. I was just worried that I wouldn't be able to catch the thief." Mo Lin Yu's heart was in turmoil at the moment as well.
"Let's go back and take a look first." Mo Xiao Yan was very calm.
When the two of them reached the entrance of the courtyard, they found a place that was still a little distance away from their home and hid there, quietly observing their surroundings.
After observing for a short while, he noticed a person sneaking around sneakily, looking around outside the courtyard.
Mo Xiao Yan could not be more familiar with this person, it was none other than Mo Zhi Yuan.
"Big Brother, do you think he stole it?" Mo Xiao Yan asked softly.
"I don't know. Let's take a look first." Mo Lin Yu did not want Mo Zhi Yuan to steal it. The relationship between the two families were not good to begin with, if it was really him who stole it, then the relationship between the two families would be even worse than before.
Just as Mo Lin Yu was feeling nervous in his heart, he did not expect Mo Zhi Yuan to actually open the courtyard door, and sneakily walk in.
After Mo Zhi Yuan entered, he closed the door, so he did not know what was happening inside.
He had just cleaned up his house yesterday and tidied it up a bit. If he were to mess around with it again, it would truly be unbearable.
"Big Brother, let's go in and take a look." It had been a while, and he was probably searching for silver in the house.
Mo Xiao Yan sighed in his heart. Fortunately, he did not find his own silver yesterday, so he was careful to not bring all the silver out today.
The two of them entered the yard quietly.
Sure enough, there were some sounds coming from inside the room. With one glance, one could tell that they were looking for something.
After confirming that it was over, Mo Xiao Yan and Mo Lin Yu walked into the house together, and caught him red-handed.
"You all … Why did you guys come back? " Mo Zhi Yuan was obviously a little afraid now.
"Of course we came back to see you." Mo Xiao Yan sneered.
"Yes, how is it? I came back specifically to see you. " Seeing the smile on Mo Xiao Yan's face, Mo Zhi Yuan felt a chill in his heart.
"Then I'll go back first." Mo Zhi Yuan wanted to leave immediately.
"Wait a moment." Mo Xiao Yan said coldly.
Only, Mo Zhi Yuan did not stop and instead walked even faster.
They had already caught him red-handed, but this Mo Zhi Yuan didn't even know how to apologize, much less run away.
At this time, Mo Lin Yu was also very angry, in a few steps he chased after Mo Zhi Yuan and pressed him into the courtyard.
"What are you doing?" "Hurry up and let go." Mo Zhi Yuan said in exasperation.
"Let you go? Don't you know what you've been doing these past two days? " Mo Lin Yu said angrily.
"What did I do?" Mo Zhi Yuan wanted to refuse to admit it even if he was beaten to death.
"What did you do? You don't want to admit that you've been caught stealing things? " Mo Xiao Yan was enraged by his shameless look.
"I didn't steal anything. I just came over. I don't know what you guys are talking about." Mo Zhi Yuan would never admit it.
"What about the silver they stole yesterday?" Mo Xiao Yan did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"Damned girl, stop slandering me. I didn't steal your family's money." Mo Zhi Yuan said fiercely.
Looks like this Mo Zhi Yuan's mouth was really hard enough, to the point that he didn't want to admit it.
"You don't admit it, right? Then why are you in our house? The things in the house are all over the place, what's the matter? " Mo Lin Yu said angrily.
Mo Lin Yu knew that Mo Zhi Yuan usually gambled without studying, but he never thought that he would actually steal things, and even steal things into his own house. This was a little unforgivable.
The last time Mo Zhi Yuan owed them a debt, he definitely did not have any money to pay it back, which was why he came to his house to steal something.
Just fifty taels of silver was not a small amount. Even after coming here a few times, he was still unable to find that much, but he still stole more than ten taels of silver from the Lee's yesterday.
Thinking that there were definitely more hidden things in the house, that was why he sneaked in to find some silver after Mo Xiao Yan and his family went out.
