Dong Biao wanted to deny it, but he did say that something happened first to make Dong Hu angry, and then he got angry, so he couldn't deny it.
Dong Biao chuckled a few times and said, "Brother, you have a pretty good brain, you figured it out right away.
If it were my second brother and my younger brother, they would definitely not understand it. It would be the same if it were our father, he would be even more confused.
In our family, only you and I can be considered smart.
I don’t really want to set you on fire, I just want to scare you and get you up quickly, I have something to do——”
"Ouch."
Before Dong Biao could finish his words, Dong Bao slapped him hard on the back of his neck. In such a quiet night, the slap was particularly clear:
"Is there anyone who can scare people like you? Apart from anything else, if the house really burns down, where will this whole family live?
Do you have Geng Feng's ability to build a house now? You can't even do it if you have money."
Dong Biao was not convinced: "Brother, I just lit a branch, the most I could do is burn the window paper, how could I burn down the house?
Am I an unreliable person? "
“Is this what you call reliable?”
Dong Feng was so angry that he kicked Dong Biao: "Just now, mother asked us to grab weapons and go find Geng Feng to fight.
Geng Feng is a hunter. He can kill a wild boar, so why can’t he kill you?
Last time we carried Li Erhui to his house to extort money, he took a three-pronged iron fork and wanted to stab you to death. Have you forgotten?
What's more, there are Geng Zhenhai and Geng Tian, they are both hunters and they are very ruthless.
You are asking for death. If we had gone, at least one of us would have been stabbed down, maybe two."
When Mrs. Qin heard that it was Dong Biao who was causing trouble, her anger dissipated:
"Okay, the children are all sleeping in the house. If they are woken up soon, they will all run out and make a lot of noise.
You all should go back to your rooms and go to sleep. Dong Biao will go to Lijia Village tomorrow to pick up Li Erhui.
Tell her I won't beat her anymore, and she doesn't have to be afraid to come back. Her cooking team is coming, and there's no one to cook for her."
She behaves like an old lady from a wealthy family.
Dong Biao touched the back of his neck where he was beaten and said, "Big Brother, Second Brother, don't go back to the house yet. I have something to say, a good thing.
Let’s go to my parents’ room.”
He glanced at Dong Bao and Dong Feng's wife and said, "What are you all doing standing there? Go back to sleep.
Old women want to hear everything.”
Dong Bao's wife kicked Dong Biao's big cow dung butt:
"You weren't satisfied with listening to big brother and sister-in-law talking about things, so you even burned big brother's window paper. Now you have the nerve to say that you want to hear everything from us?
Instead of blaming us, we should think carefully about how to apologize to Li Erhui when we go to pick her up tomorrow.
The five brothers of the Li family are not vegetarians. If things go wrong, they will break your legs and make you lie paralyzed on the kang. Then you will see how you listen to the window from now on."
Mrs. Dong was furious: "Second son's wife, shut your stinky mouth."
Dong Bao's wife didn't dare to argue with her mother-in-law. She looked at Dong Feng's wife and said, "Sister-in-law is embarrassed to come out. Let's go back to the room and sleep. Looking at Dong Biao's mean look, nothing good can happen.
Maybe the whole family is thinking about how to kneel down to Li Erhui tomorrow. Didn’t they kneel down to someone last time? "
"Get lost! Let my second brother write you a letter of divorce at dawn."
Dong Biao scolded his second sister-in-law, then pulled his eldest brother, second brother and west brother into the east room of his parents.
Dong Hu said with a straight face: "What's the matter? Tell me quickly. I'm very sleepy and I need to go to bed."
"Why are you sleeping? My sister-in-law looks so emaciated. Why are you still sleeping? Aren't you afraid that she will crush you to death?"
Seeing that Dong Hu was getting angry, Dong Biao waved his hands and said, "I'm talking about serious matters.
Just now I saw Geng Zhenhai taking Geng Feng and Geng Tian with him, following the head of the village.
The three of them were holding blankets under their arms. They must be staying at the village headman’s house. There were only three women left in his house.”
Dong Hu was no longer sleepy this time, and blinked his eyes a few times: "What do you mean? You want to go to his house and take Qin Nian down?
Come on, Geng Feng will stab you to death with an iron fork tomorrow morning."
Dong Bao: "You should bring Erhui back. You've only been away for a few days, and you're so depressed?"
Dong Feng: "You failed last time in the mountains, and now Ye Meizi and Li Pozi are here, how can you succeed?
"If Mrs. Li doesn't hit your head with a stick, there's no way to fix it."
Mrs. Dong actually laughed and said, "Among you brothers, the third one is the most lustful."
"Oops! You misunderstood me."
Dong Biao was so anxious that he almost stuttered: "No one is allowed to interrupt me, I will continue.
There are only three women left in the Geng family's east and west courtyards, and they are probably living in the warehouse.
They are tired after a long day and even the banging of gongs and drums in their ears cannot wake them up.
Even if she could wake up, what would it matter? When the man is not at home, the woman is at a loss, letting the thief take everything.
They were building a house and had no place to put their things, so they should have put them in the yard.
Let's sneak over and take away all the food, so they can only eat shit tomorrow."
Dong Hu, Dong Bao and Dong Feng's eyes lit up.
Dong Feng said: "I passed by their door at noon today and I could smell the aroma of meat."
Dong Biao: "Qin Nian went to the county town today. I saw him when he came back. He was carrying a basket full of food. They must be all delicious food."
"Steal it."
Mrs. Dong suddenly interrupted, "During the years of famine, people like us don't dare to eat meat, but they dare to do so. It shows that they have money.
Geng Feng ran faster than a monkey, maybe the money they used to build the house was stolen."
Dong Hu nodded slightly: "Okay, let's sneak over there. If they are really left in the yard, we will steal them back.
But it’s a bit early now, so go after midnight, when people are most asleep.”
The whole family unanimously agreed to Dong Hu's proposal.
The brothers didn't go back to the house. They lay on Mrs. Dong's kang with their heads down and closed their eyes to rest.
Just after midnight, Dong's brother came out of the house and ran to Geng Feng's house under the cover of darkness.
There are a lot of blue bricks on the west side of Geng's courtyard. They cannot be stolen because there is no place to hide them if they are stolen. They are also useless if not used to build a house.
I hid and observed for a while. Except for the night wind, the surroundings were quiet.
Dong Hu left Dong Feng on guard outside, and he took Dong Bao and Dong Biao into the yard. They walked around the yard with their legs raised high and steps lightly, but they didn't find anything good.
I had no choice but to retreat and then enter Qin Nian's yard. After walking around for a circle, there was still nothing.
Dong Biao was unwilling to give up, and whispered, "Go inside and take a look."
Come into the house.
The setting moonlight poured in through the window that had no paper on it. It wasn't bright, but I could see clearly what was inside the room.
There is a large jar on the ground.
Dong Hu and Dong Biao looked at each other, both of them with surprise in their eyes.
Dong Hu opened the lid of the jar and looked inside. It was a jar of lard.
On the dining table, there was a bowl of kneaded white flour, which seemed to be prepared for steaming buns in the morning, and there was also a jar of white sugar.
Dong Hu couldn't control his shock and envy. He cursed in a low voice: "Damn it, Geng Feng got rich?
He actually boiled such a big jar of lard, bought flour and sugar, and bought bricks to build a house. I don't believe a snake can be worth so much money."
Dong Biao said, "Don't talk about these useless things for now. The important thing is to take all the things back as soon as possible."
The three brothers took action immediately.
Dong Hu carried the big jar, Dong Biao carried the basin, and Dong Bao held the sugar jar, and they left the yard.
