Liu Dashui finally realized he was wrong. It wasn't his fault at all; someone had been playing a prank on him!

I'm so angry!

Enraged, he could only think that someone was secretly sabotaging him, without considering any other possibilities!

Someone saw him stealing other people's things, but he was good at acting and refused to admit it to the death, so no one could do anything about it. Now that he's stealing the Mo family's corn, it must be because someone who was jealous found out somehow and came here to mess with him!

He never imagined it would be someone from the Mo family, because the Mo family members had gone to bed early and should be sound asleep; they wouldn't come to the fields if they got up at night!

He insisted that it was someone like him, which made me very angry. Everyone is trying to make a living through their own abilities. He hasn't offended anyone, so why should I bother him? He's trying to scare people to death in the middle of the night!

So he started shouting, yelling so loudly that the person hiding in the shadows should finally show his face, let him find out which bastard it was, and if he didn't teach him a lesson later, he wouldn't be a Liu!

However, when he picked up the stone from the ground, looking ready to fight, and was about to slash the other person, he saw someone walking out of the darkness. He was so frightened that his legs went weak, and all his bravado vanished instantly!

Mother! What did he see?

He must be seeing things!

He just came to the Mo family to steal some corn to exchange for some money. There's plenty of corn in the Mo family's fields; he could steal several baskets without being caught. He came in shifts, so it was hard to spot him!

He really just wanted to get some corn; he didn't do anything wrong!

Why do I have to run into these things so late at night?!

That's terrifying!

He doesn't want corn anymore; he just wants to go home. There are talismans at home, so he has nothing to fear!

But his legs wouldn't obey him; he couldn't drag them or move them, so how could he run?

Seeing the figure approaching, Liu Dashui, feeling guilty, fearfully used his hands to support himself and moved backward, muttering, "Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!"

Can't you understand human language? Why are you coming over here?!

Suddenly, Liu Dashui felt his pants were a little wet, and there was a smell of urine coming from them!

Well!

Oh no, I'm dead!

As the figure approached, Liu Dashui, driven by a strong will to survive, immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, while also making excuses for himself!

"My lord, please spare me! I admit I'm greedy and only wanted to steal some corn to sell for money. I have elderly parents and young children to support, and my whole family depends on me. Please, my lord, have mercy on me this time! I promise I'll never do it again! I really won't!"

Liu Dashui didn't know how to address the other party. He remembered that people in the county government would call him "sir" when begging for mercy, so he decided to just call him "sir" too, since it wouldn't offend anyone!

Su Nanxi's lips twitched. Where did he learn such a joke? He uses it so fluently!

How could she not know that Liu Dashui had a child? Was it born today?

Liu Dashui used to have a family, but his wife got sick and he couldn't afford treatment, so she passed away. After that, it was very difficult for him to find a wife. He had no children at all, so where would he get a little one?

The mouth beats the brain to thought; the brain probably hasn't even caught up yet!

They don't even bother to draft their lies. Have they been listening to too much opera? They just use whatever comes to mind!

Su Nanxi didn't say a word, just watched Liu Dashui put on a show. Tsk, if she didn't know this guy, she probably would have been fooled!

In Liu Dashui's eyes, nothing was a big deal. It was just a small matter, nothing serious. They were all from the countryside. So what if he took a little?

Now that the Mo family is doing well, isn't it only right that they help out the villagers?

He took his share in advance; there wasn't much left for him!

Mo Qinghe heard this and came over. His wife said she would go over first to see how he would react, to see if he would scare the bastard to death. So he stopped and waited behind.

But he was worried that his wife would be outnumbered and get hurt, so he decided to step forward and stay by her side to cheer her on. If anything went wrong, he would take care of it, which would be a good opportunity to test his work over the past few days!

Liu Dashui was even more frightened. "Mom, how come there's another one? Will there be a whole bunch of them coming out and looking at him, demanding justice?"

That's terrifying! He really wants to run away!

It's late at night, this is someone else's territory, he can't handle it!

Run!

What are you staying here for? Are you waiting for the New Year?

During the Lunar New Year, people will probably be burning incense for him!

He wouldn't want to. He's so young, and although he hasn't accomplished anything yet, he's come to this world and can't bear to leave its beauty!

A hard approach definitely won't work; judging from his posture, he's sure to come out worse off!

Let's stop this futile struggle and strive for maximum tolerance and understanding!

He didn't even dare to look up and look directly at us, which showed that he was somewhat guilty and afraid!

So he switched to ingratiating mode, thinking that these two were ugly enough, and he wondered if they were public officials or just loafers! But he was at a disadvantage now and couldn't afford to fight back, so he might as well say a few more compliments, and maybe they would be happy and let him go!

Su Nanxi thought to herself, "This mouth is quite something, it keeps babbling on and on, but no matter how much it says, it's all just sophistry!"

Ha! Finding so many sophisticated and unconventional reasons for one's actions is truly something else!

I said that my family was poor and we couldn't even afford to eat. Life was too hard, so I had no choice but to come to the Mo family's field to pick some corn to exchange for some money. I really didn't mean any harm!

Bah! He's poor and he thinks he's right? What does his poverty have to do with the Mo family? He doesn't even seem to have any ill intentions, but Su Nanxi felt it was full of malice!

Seeing that she had made a profit, she came out to cause trouble in the middle of the night, and even gave such a righteous reason. Does she think she's stupid?

I'm sorry, she has a kind heart, but she only feels hatred and disgust for those who do evil and do not repent!

They haven't argued much yet. Hopefully, considering he's been so poor and hungry for days, they'll be magnanimous and let him off the hook.

What? You still want to take the corn you broke off back? You can't take it back anyway?

Shameless!

I've almost filled a whole basket, and I haven't even carried that much yet! Are you blind?!

Even if the corn can't be taken back, it still belongs to the Mo family. Why should he take it back? Does hunger justify stealing from others?

It seems they don't think they're wrong at all, and even feel they haven't argued enough!

Even if the Mo family doesn't want it, we will resolutely refuse to give it to this kind of person, as it only emboldens their arrogance and makes them even more unscrupulous in stealing things in the future!

What a shameless scoundrel!

Su Nanxi deliberately dressed in a frightening way to show herself, wanting to hear Liu Dashui's true thoughts. Hmm, very good! Very good idea!

Her hands were about to give way; if she didn't move an inch, she would be letting Liu Dashui down for being so honest!

Mo Qinghe's face was also dark. In the darkness, the white powder he had applied couldn't cover it up. He had no idea that Liu Dashui was so eloquent!

He pretends to be honest and simple on ordinary days, but oops, he has a completely different face behind the scenes!

It's disgusting!

Just as he was about to make a move, Liu Dashui suddenly rolled on the ground and shouted.

"Awooo!"
