Chapter 135: Catch the Thief
"Don't bully my cousin!" Gu Yu stood in front. The adults and cousins in the family had gone to the mountain to collect firewood. Only he and Mumu were there. As a little man, he had to be the first to go if anything happened.
Wang Yufen gasped in pain. The snowball was incredibly powerful. "Who bullied her? Didn't you see she hit me? I'm telling you, I'm dizzy right now. I can't just let this go!"
"You..." Gu Yu was not used to dealing with unreasonable people, and he was gasping for breath in anger.
As he was speaking, Wang Yufen had already entered the yard. He glanced at the empty cart and sneered. Isn't that all?
"I was just throwing snowballs. Who told you to sneak around in front of my house? If you hadn't come, how could I have hit you?"
"That's right!" Gu Yu straightened his back.
"You little girl, you may not be that old, but you have a big mouth." Wang Yufen rubbed her red forehead. The yard was bare and the edge could be seen at a glance.
"Where are your parents?"
Li Mumu knew that this guy was up to no good. She was close to Zhao at the beginning, but ended up using Zhao as a tool and even tricking Zhao into stealing things from the house.
But there is no one in my family as stupid as Zhao.
"What are you going to do?" Li Mumu asked.
"I've been here for such a long time, and your family hasn't come out yet. It's so rude. I heard that you are from the capital. People in the capital are not like this. No wonder you were exiled here." Wang Yufen said gloatingly.
Gu Yu was a simple-minded man, and was easily fooled by a few words. "They are not at home, and we have rules in our house."
Wang Yufen's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she was about to go into the house. It was really a blessing from heaven that she had only two children looking after the house.
"My house is right next to yours. I haven't seen your house yet. I'll go in and take a look."
Seeing that the two children were not stopped, Wang Yufen walked in with a grand gesture.
If Li Mumu wanted to stop her, she couldn't even enter the yard, let alone the house.
She lowered her voice and said, "Cousin, go call the village chief and tell him there's a thief in our house!"
Gu Yu suddenly realized what was going on, then ran out with his short legs.
Wang Yufen walked around each room and rummaged through people's bags. The Gu family had all their valuables on them, so of course she couldn't touch them. Apart from some pots, pans, and seasonings, there were also some clothes.
But looking at the full can of oil, Wang Yufen was tempted.
She was about to take it away when she heard a commotion outside the yard.
"Where is the thief? Don't be afraid, kid. With us here, the thief can't get away."
When Li Mumu saw someone coming, she burst into tears and then said aggrievedly that an unfamiliar woman came in and yelled at them, and then went into the house.
When Wang Yufen heard this, she secretly cursed the kid for talking nonsense. She only cursed him with that one sentence.
"Come out, or we'll use force."
Hearing the commotion outside, Wang Yufen realized that many people had come. She was so frightened that her face turned pale. "No, no, no, Uncle Qin, it's me!"
"From the Shi family?" Qin Ling frowned. "Is that thief you?"
"I'm not a thief. I just thought of the newcomer and came to visit." Wang Yufen said with a smile. She had just hurriedly forgotten to put the oil can back.
She noticed that everyone was staring at her, and said guiltily, "By the way... I just came to borrow some oil. This kid is ignorant and talking nonsense."
This may be true for other children, but in the eyes of Old Master Qin and the others, especially Pig Baby's father, Li Mumu is absolutely unacceptable.
"Why did you go into someone's house when the adults weren't around? And you're blaming the kids for misunderstanding me. I think you have bad intentions."
Piglet's father has always been an honest and upright man, the kind of man who can't get anything done even with three sticks. However, in order to support Li Mumu, he said a lot in one breath.
"Mom said, taking something without asking is considered stealing." Li Mumu said in a baby voice, "She didn't say she wanted to borrow oil."
"You..." Wang Yufen's face turned red with embarrassment.
"I was saying our village never had thieves, but how come there are no sweet potatoes or potatoes after they came?"
"No, no!" Wang Yufen panicked and hurried to explain.
But this is not unfair to her, it was really her who did it. The appearance of Li Mumu will change the plot after her arrival, but the previous plot will not change.
Compared with the Li family, the Shi family is more sinister and scheming. Let alone a deep friendship with them, she doesn't even want to maintain superficial harmony.
Rather than giving her the opportunity to stab her in the back, it would be better to break up with her right from the start, so that she would know that the Gu family is not easy to bully and that she should not set her sights on them.
When the Gu family members were going down the mountain, they heard the noise in their yard. Gu Yuru was so scared that she quickened her pace, and Xie Xun jumped up and quickly reached the door using lightness skills.
"What happened?" Gu Yuru felt relieved when she saw that her daughter's hand was held by the village chief and she was fine.
She thought that it would only be a short while before she could take care of the two little ones. The snow in the mountains was so thick that it would be difficult for them to walk.
After Gu Yuru understood the whole story, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Yufen glanced at Gu Yuru. Her features were as pretty as a painting, completely different from the miserable appearance she had imagined after being exiled. It was obvious that she had never suffered any hardship.
Unlike them back then, when they came here they felt like they had been skinned alive.
Soon after, all the young and old in the Gu family came back. The women were all clean and beautiful, and she was jealous to death.
"It really was a misunderstanding. I just thought we'd visit more often since we're neighbors. Coincidentally, I ran out of gas at home, so I wanted to borrow some. I'll return it tomorrow. Your little girl is really amazing. She thinks I'm a thief."
Gu Yuru knew her daughter very well, and as Mumu said, taking something without asking is considered stealing.
She sneaked into the house alone when no one was home. How could she be a good person?
Madam Gu smiled and said, "Since it's just a misunderstanding, I'm really sorry to trouble you, Village Chief and everyone else."
"It's okay, don't be polite. Mumu's business is our business." said the men.
Wang Yufen felt jealous seeing the Gu family being treated like this by the people of Ningxi Village.
Their family has lived in this village for more than three years, but they have never been so close to the villagers. When the roof leaked, they couldn't find anyone to help.
After thinking about it, she felt that these women were all very coquettish, otherwise why would they dress so flamboyantly?
"There's one more thing. Could you please ask Mumu to take a look at it for my mother?"
Li Mumu looked at the man who was speaking and nodded without asking, "Okay, as long as uncle trusts me, I will go and take a look."
The Gu family was very confident in Li Mumu's medical skills, so they didn't stop her.
Old Madam Gu didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but she also had some grudges against Wang Yufen, but she didn't show it on her face.
"Hey, girls, you can be really confident. Can such a small thing really cure diseases? These unruly people are unreasonable. If it can't cure you, you will be in trouble." Wang Yufen instigated.
