"you......"
Her finger trembled as she pointed at him.
"Chen Ergou, you've gone too far!"
I said I'd give you the money, and I definitely will.
If you help me finish this task, I'll report you for killing Leng Lie.
After Bai Qin finished speaking, she turned and ran out of the courtyard.
Once we were outside...
A cold smile appeared on her lips.
She took 210 yuan from Leng Lie and gave 100 yuan to Chen Ergou.
Since he's still not satisfied, she shouldn't blame her for being impolite.
She glanced at the courtyard gate with disdain.
He ran towards the paddy fields without looking back.
Chen Ergou leisurely closed the courtyard gate.
She knew what Bai Qin was up to.
But he didn't care at all.
Anyway, it wasn't Leng Lie who died in this house.
He searched the house thoroughly.
However, they found no cash or anything of value.
He could only grumble and curse as he went inside, picked up Guan Yuxi, and quietly slipped out the back door.
He had just left.
Then, a man of unusually tall stature slipped into the yard.
We went straight to Grandpa Guan's house.
He flipped through a cabinet full of books, throwing them away as he went.
After finding nothing, he went to Guan Yuxi and Leng Lie's bedroom.
They continued rummaging through drawers and cabinets looking for things.
Clothes and personal belongings were scattered all over the floor.

All morning.
Leng Lie's left eye twitched several times.
He thought of Guan Yuxi's words of advice.
He was also being extra careful today.
He, who used to never use a stick when taming oxen, now has a yellow thorn stick in his hand.
The grumpy old ox appeared unusually docile.
However, Leng Lie still felt a sense of unease in his heart.
He swung the bull-taming stick in his hand with great force.
The old ox was so frightened that it tucked its tail between its legs.
"Help! Someone come quick!"
"Something's happened to the Guan family!"
"Someone's dead! Leng Lie has been killed!"
A woman's voice could be heard faintly.
Leng Lie paused in his hand as he drove the cattle.
"Am I dead?"
He looked at the old ox and muttered to himself.
The old ox let out a "moo".
It's unclear whether she was answering him or mocking him.
When he looked again, he stared intently.
Bai Qin stumbled and ran towards the paddy field.
He told everyone he met, looking completely panicked.
Leng Lie suddenly felt a chill run through his body.
They almost all of them fell headfirst into the paddy field.
He threw down the plowshare and ran home as fast as he could.
