Chapter 12: Maybe the thief was attracted by the dowry for his daughter



The family of four shared a small handful of noodles. Wang Yamei gave Jiang Yushan the least amount of noodles, just two mouthfuls at most. If she wasn't afraid that Jiang Yushan, who was frail, would starve to death, she wouldn't have wanted to give her even these two mouthfuls.

Jiang Yushan silently finished the noodles in the bowl and hurried back to his room.

"What a shame this girl is! She doesn't even know how to help with the housework. It's useless to raise her to this age!" Wang Yamei felt more and more uncomfortable when she saw her put down the bowl and leave.

She was already upset because her house was completely robbed, and now when she looked at Jiang Yushan, she was dissatisfied with everything about him, wasn't she?

"Mom, just shut up!" Jiang Sisi reminded her impatiently, "You never stop talking. Aren't you annoying?"

She didn't want to speak up for Jiang Yushan, but everyone was already depressed because their homes had been robbed, and Wang Yamei kept whining, which made people feel upset.

"..." Wang Yamei felt uncomfortable after being criticized, but since it was Jiang Sisi who said that, she could only endure it and at least shut up.

At night, the family could only sleep on the floor, without even a piece of extra clothing to use as a cushion or cover. The three of them tossed and turned on the floor, unable to fall asleep.

Not long after Jiang Yushan returned to the room, he turned around and entered the space.

Jiang Yushan was not full at all after eating just a few noodles. Guarding a space full of supplies while still hungry is not a smart thing to do.

"Goudan, go to the farm and catch some seafood for me." Jiang Yushan instructed Goudan as soon as he entered the space.

"Okay, Your Majesty!" Goudan responded and immediately walked towards the farm.

Goudan had already sorted out all the things she brought in that morning, and placed some usable daily necessities on the second floor. Although these furniture of the Jiang family were far inferior to those in her villa, they were their lifeblood to the Jiang family.

After a while, Goudan brought over the seafood he had caught. He caught some of everything, including shrimps, crabs, clams, conchs, and so on.

"It's just right for a seafood feast." Jiang Yushan got ready and processed the seafood.

In her previous life, when she used these things in the space to open a small shop, she also learned some good cooking skills and could be considered a chef.

Jiang Yushan did not treat her stomach badly at all. She had a delicious seafood meal in the space, took a bath in the bathroom, and then went straight to sleep on the Simmons bed.

There were no beds outside, so she didn't want to sleep on the floor.

The next morning, Jiang Yushan slept well. When he came out of the space, the Jiang family members had already gotten up one after another.

They usually don't get up so late, but the hard floor made it difficult to sleep. They finally fell asleep in the second half of the night, but woke up not long after.

Jiang Mingde supported his old waist, and when he got up from the ground, he could even hear a "crunching" sound from his waist.

Wang Yamei was not much better off. Without a pillow, her neck was sore all night and she couldn't even turn it!

Jiang Sisi is still younger after all, but she has a few dark circles under her eyes.

The three men looked pale, with dark circles under their eyes. When they walked out of the room, their movements were slow and sluggish, like zombies.

"Let's go to the police station again today to inquire about the situation and see if those things can be found." Wang Yamei looked at the empty house, still feeling unwilling.

"good."

With such a thing happening at home, the couple had no intention of going to work. Instead of waiting at home, it would be better to go to the police station to check on them.

The family of four came to the police station without even having breakfast.

"Comrade police, you must help us! Our daughter is getting married soon, and all the dowry and savings books have been stolen. How is she going to get married?" Wang Yamei started howling as soon as she entered the police station, and her voice was so loud that the whole police station could hear it.

She saw a man in uniform and pulled him over to help catch the thief.

"Comrade, please calm down first." The police poured them some water and tried to calm Wang Yamei down first.

The way she is now, it is impossible to communicate.

"Stop howling, can you be quiet?" Jiang Mingde frowned and growled beside him.

They came to the police to inquire about the case, not to embarrass themselves!

Even Jiang Sisi had quietly moved a little further away from her when she was sitting just now. To be honest, she also felt that Wang Yamei was a bit embarrassing.

Jiang Mingde's words were still useful. Wang Yamei finally stopped howling at the top of her lungs. She drank the water in front of her in one gulp and asked the police for another glass.

She drank more than ten cups in a row and used water to satisfy her hunger, but she was finally able to communicate normally.

"I heard you mention dowry just now? So you have been preparing the dowry during this period, right?" the police asked.

"Yes, yes, my daughter is getting married soon, and I prepared a lot of dowry for her, but now it's all gone... What should I do now that she has lost her dowry?" Wang Yamei began to wipe away her tears as she spoke.

The police roughly understood the amount of the dowry and deduced that it was her constant shopping behavior in the past two days that attracted the attention of the criminals.

After all, getting married is a big deal, and there are a lot of things to buy. Just a few of them would be enough for a thief to have food and clothing for a year.

But this time the thief was obviously very ambitious and actually stole the entire house!

"Then think carefully, which places did you pass by when you took things home during this period of time?" the police asked again.
