"Hmm." Su Chenhao took the water bottle and took a sip.

"What were you thinking about just now?" Qiao Xiaoni asked, sitting down next to him. She looked at the golden corn that had been husked and picked up a stalk to play with it.

Su Chenhao pointed and said, "My land is five meters ahead. I just went to check, and a lot of the corn has been picked."

I was planning to take over your land first, then mine, but now it seems there's no need.

Qiao Xiaoni stood up and took a look. There were already few corns in that field, and now it was bare except for the corn stalks. It must have been picked not long ago.

"This is outrageous! Who came to steal the corn?"

"Who else could it be? It's just those two people. I didn't expect them to be so shameless." Su Chenhao put the cap back on the water bottle.

"You mean, it was your uncle and aunt who did it?" Qiao Xiaoni could only think of these two people; she didn't know anyone else.

“It must be them, otherwise no one would steal corn from a barren plot of land.” Su Chenhao said with certainty, “Besides, I just looked at it, and the size of the footprints is exactly the same as my uncle’s.”

Qiao Xiaoni pinched the corn and said, "Those two bastards are really wicked. We didn't teach them a lesson last time."

Su Chenhao laughed: "Honey, don't be angry. I've already thought of a way. We'll fight fire with fire. He stole our corn, didn't he? Tonight I'll go steal his corn and show them what real corn stealing is all about."

“I’ll go with you tonight.” Qiao Xiaoni waved her little fist: “They’ve gone too far. We absolutely cannot let people like that get away with it.”

Su Chenhao patted her head and smiled indulgently, saying, "I can handle this by myself. You can rest at home tonight and wait for my good news."

Qiao Xiaoni pouted, "Are you afraid I'll cause you trouble?"

Su Chenhao shook his head: "I'm worried that you won't get enough rest. You've been busy these past few days, I haven't seen you have a moment to rest. You finally get a little sleep at night, and if you come up the mountain with me, you won't get any rest at night."

Qiao Xiaoni hugged his arm and said, "If you don't take me, I'll never talk to you again. Besides, I know my body; it definitely won't delay things."

Having his weakness exposed, Su Chenhao reluctantly nodded in agreement. After all, he couldn't bear to make his little wife angry.

They packed up and went home when it was completely dark, and by the time they got home, they could barely see the road.

Li Meihua had already opened the door upon hearing the noise, welcoming them inside.

Today was a physically demanding day. She spent the afternoon at home making vegetable and meat pancakes, which, along with some porridge, made for a hearty meal for everyone. Because they were all so tired, they barely spoke a few words after eating and went back to their rooms to rest.

Before leaving the house, Qiao Xiaoni gave him a look that clearly conveyed the message: if you dare not invite me along, then don't come looking for me.

Su Chenhao touched his nose helplessly; his little wife was not to be trifled with! He went back to the house and slept for a while. About two and a half hours had passed, and most of the family members were asleep.

He went straight outside, came to his wife's window, and coughed softly. If there was no response, he went alone.

"I thought you weren't going to call me tonight." Qiao Xiaoni's voice came from inside the house. Then the window opened completely, and she jumped out of the house. Her movements were clean and swift, as if she had done it a hundred times.
