At first, Master Jin listened attentively, but the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong. When the topic turned to fat women, Master Jin could no longer tolerate it.
Is this even human language? And his thighs are two sizes thicker than his waist? What other news in An County is there that he doesn't know? How come he doesn't know? Who has someone this fat?
"If you're going to make up a story, at least make it believable. This kind of story is obviously fake; it's an insult to his intelligence," Master Jin Wu shouted, stopping him.
"Uncle, there's no need to say these meaningless things!"
"Do you have any records of goods entering and leaving the scrap yard? Show them to me!"
The old man made an excuse:
"I've been in a daze all day. I'll jot down what I can remember and leave the rest unremembered. It's not very useful to look at these notes!"
Jin Wuye didn't think much of it. He sold all the scrap from the recycling station, which wasn't worth much money. It was normal for the accounts to be a mess.
Master Jin didn't ask about the record again, and said somewhat impatiently:
"Uncle, tell me who has come over in the past few days and what their specific characteristics are."
"You must think this through carefully. After all, your aunt is waiting for you to come home, and she definitely doesn't want anything to happen to you!"
Mentioning his aunt made the uncle break out in a cold sweat, and he was even more eager to run away as soon as he got home.
Even if the items are recovered, Master Jin might not let him go.
Moreover, once this thing is lost, it won't be easy to find it again. If we empty his stomach completely, Master Jin will probably be the first to take action against him!
The old man said respectfully:
"I'll write it down right now, I'll write it down carefully and clearly!"
Seeing that his uncle's attitude was sincere, Master Jin did not make things difficult for him and went to the storeroom where he hid the things.
Once inside, Master Jin carefully examined the traces, his brows furrowing more and more as he looked.
With so many boxes, even if they were moved by their own people, there would be no way they wouldn't leave a trace on the ground.
But now, it has been stolen without a trace, as if it vanished into thin air!
It seems the other party was very careful and did things flawlessly!
That means there's no way to find clues inside the house; we can only pin our hopes on our uncle.
The uncle had just hidden his notebook and sat down to write and think: what should he do if he took his aunt and ran away back to their hometown?
If all else fails, they can go into the mountains and hide for a year or two. Once this matter is over and Master Jin gives up, he and his aunt can come out again.
I'm not thinking about coming to the city for a better life this time; life is more stable back home!
As the old man was lost in thought, he saw Master Jin Wu appear behind him without him noticing, and said in a sinister tone:
"I'll be right here watching you write!"
The uncle was terrified. He thought to himself, "This is bad. I might just run away with my aunt now!"
The old man closed his eyes. Husbands and wives are like birds in the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly away separately. When it comes to life and death, he should take care of himself first!
As for the old aunt, she's just a withered old woman, and Master Jin wouldn't even look at her. She doesn't know anything anyway, so at most she'll just suffer a little!
The old man's eyes darted around, but he didn't dare to make any other moves. He just slowly wrote down what had happened these past few days, occasionally pretending not to remember and rubbing his head to think.
Seeing that he was writing quite diligently, Master Jin sent Pockmarked Man over to keep an eye on him while he went out to instruct his men to go door to door in the neighborhood to inquire.
As soon as Master Jin left, Uncle clutched his stomach, pretending to have food poisoning, and said to Pockmarked Face:
"Pockmarked face, my stomach hurts, I need to go to the toilet right away. If Fifth Master comes back, you'll have to explain for me!"
The pockmarked man didn't think much of it and waved his hand, saying:
"Lazy donkeys poop and pee a lot on the millstone, hurry up and come back quickly!"
The old man clutched his stomach and ran to the toilet. Seeing that no one was coming, he climbed over the wall.
After finding it, the uncle didn't dare to delay and went straight home.
At this time, my aunt was still sweeping the streets, while my uncle rummaged through drawers and cabinets to find all the money in the house and carried it with him.
He was in a hurry and was afraid of being caught, so he rushed to the bus station.
Once he gets to his hometown and enters the mountains, no one can find him.
After instructing his brothers, Master Jin returned to check how much his uncle had written. Seeing only Pockmarked Face remained, Master Jin said displeasedly:
"Where's Uncle?"
Pockmarked face spoke the truth:
"Uncle said he had an upset stomach and went to the toilet!"
Master Jin's heart skipped a beat; he had a bad feeling about things and continued to ask:
"How long have you been gone?"
Without much thought, the pockmarked man said:
"You just left, and your uncle went to the toilet. He's been there for quite a while!"
Master Jin was furious and shouted:
"What are you thinking? Go check if they've run away!"
Pockmarked face then realized what was happening and rushed to the restroom to look for him, only to find that his uncle had run away!
When Master Jin heard that his uncle had run away, he slammed his fist on the table and said:
"You go with Zhang Xiaosan to his house. If he's not home, then go to the train or bus station and wait for him. You have to dig three feet into the ground to bring him back to me!"
Pockmarked face agreed and went to find Zhang Xiaosan to look for Uncle together!
My uncle has already boarded the bus back to his hometown, so it's impossible to find him now!
…………
The three of them only picked green hazelnuts and didn't transport them down the mountain, so they were still quite fast. On the first afternoon alone, they picked more than 500 jin (250 kg).
That evening, the three Wei brothers used a cart to transport all the green hazelnuts to Zhong Wanwan's house. Then, taking advantage of the darkness and the fact that no one was paying attention, they carried the green hazelnuts basket by basket to the roof and spread them out to dry.
Once these green-skinned hazelnuts have dried and the green husks have fallen off, you can harvest the hazelnuts and store them in the cellar!
The next day, they did the same thing and picked up the remaining 1,000 jin of green hazelnuts. They transported them back to Zhong Wanwan's house twice by cart!
Zhong Wanwan was overjoyed to see the roof covered with green hazelnuts.
1500 jin of green-skinned walnuts is equivalent to 300 jin of large hazelnuts.
The Wei family contributed a lot, and Zheng Nannan did a good job guarding the house. Zhong Wanwan plans to divide these hazelnuts as follows: 120 jin for the Wei family, 30 jin for Zheng Nannan, and the remaining 150 jin will naturally be theirs!
After all, she was the one who found the items, and she was the one who managed to shake off the green hazelnuts, so she felt no guilt about taking half of them!
Next, she planned to find pine nuts, chestnuts, and pecans.
Make sure you don't leave Bai Yueyao a single blade of grass!
