"I...I was drunk and went to the wrong door."
Fu Da Lai Zi inwardly cursed, thinking that Fu Liang was like a brother to Fu Ming, so what difference was there between encountering him and encountering the Fu family?
We can only try to fool this simpleton and get away first.
Unfortunately, Fu Liang wasn't a fool. Although Fu Da Laizi smelled of alcohol, there was no sign of drunkenness in his eyes!
"My uncle and the others haven't come back yet. Did you go to their house to steal chickens and dogs?"
Fu Da Laizi was not about to admit it, and he acted as if he was being wronged.
"Fu Liang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! No matter how much you fawn over Boss Fu's family, you can't wrong an innocent person like me!"
"Pah, come on!"
Fu Qingniang, who was inside the house, heard the commotion and opened the back door to see what was going on. She couldn't help but chime in after hearing what Fu Dalaizi said.
"If you were a good person, there would be no bad people in the world!"
Back then, her husband had just died, and her own daughter was mentally challenged and didn't know any better. This scoundrel Fu often looked at her with disgusting eyes, which made her hide a knife under her pillow every night when she slept.
Fortunately, the crackdown in recent years has deterred Fu Da Laizi from being so bold.
When Fu Dalaizi saw that Wang Xiuer, a widow, dared to stand up and talk nonsense, he immediately threatened her in a vicious tone.
"What do you know, you're just a woman? What's it to you?"
"That damned widow is meddling in other people's business!"
Wang Xiuer had recently made money selling watermelons and was in a great mood. She hadn't thrown a tantrum at anyone in a long time, so Fu Dalaizi probably forgot that she wasn't someone to be trifled with.
Instead of taking a midday nap, he sneaks into someone else's house and claims to be drunk. Who would believe that? Who would believe that?
She immediately shouted at the top of her lungs, "Thief! Thief!"
"Fu the Big Rascal broke into someone's house and stole things while Boss Fu was away!"
"Shut up!"
Fu Dalaizi was both angry and anxious when he saw that she was going to call someone else.
"Shut up, you woman!"
He was about to pounce on Wang Xiuer when Fu Liang, not one to back down, stepped forward and stopped him.
Although the two were about the same height and build, Fu Liang was younger than Fu Da Laizi and had been fishing and pulling nets with Fu Laoda and the others for many years, so he was naturally stronger than Fu Da Laizi, who only fished for three days and dried his nets for two.
Before the neighbors could hear the commotion and come over, Fu Da Lai Zi was pinned to the ground by Fu Liang and couldn't get up.
"I'm going to report you! There's no law anymore! You're framing people and bullying them!"
The neighbors from next door, Fu Honghong's family, also ran out to watch the commotion. As a result, Fu Sanlaizi, seeing that no one was watching him, became afraid of being caught and ran away!
That's his older brother. Good luck to him!
We'll try to get as many as we can!
At the village entrance, Fu San drove his tricycle into the village with a rumble. Lin Qiuju asked him to drop her off at her doorstep, and Fu San then took Fu Laoda's family back home.
Originally, Boss Fu and the others were planning to walk over themselves, but Fu San said it wouldn't make a difference if they stepped on the gas.
Fu Ling wanted to show off her little bicycle to her friends, but she didn't get the chance.
"Honghong! Xiaohong!"
When Fu Ling passed by Fu Honghong's house, she called out several times but no one responded, and she lowered her head in frustration.
As soon as Boss Fu got out of the car, he felt something was wrong; his door had clearly been tampered with.
When Ye Xiaocui reached for her key to open the door, the lock came loose as soon as she touched it.
"Damn it, a thief has broken in!"
Fu Ming, with his sharp ears, heard a noise in the backyard, picked up the shovel lying nearby, and went to the backyard.
As a result, there was a circle of neighbors outside the backyard fence, and seeing him was like another protagonist in the gossip making his official debut.
"Master Fu's Fu Ming is back!"
"Fu Ming, come quick! We've caught a thief at your house!"
Fu Ming felt that his shovel was almost unnecessary; with so many kind neighbors, even a few thieves wouldn't be enough to catch.
Fu Wan and the others arrived at the backyard and were puzzled to see Fu Da Laizi still pinned to the ground.
"Why is it you?"
Ye Xiaocui hurriedly walked around the house, seeing signs that it had been ransacked everywhere, and her eyes welled up with tears.
She kept cursing the thief, then quickly checked the damage to her home.
Fortunately, she had taken almost all the money in the house with her today, so apart from her cloth bag for grocery shopping being missing, she didn't lose anything else.
Fu Wan suddenly remembered the few pearls she had stored away before. She ran to the corner of the room, removed the bricks, and found a small box inside, completely unharmed.
She had just breathed a sigh of relief when, a moment later, Fu Ling's voice rang out from the backyard, as she grabbed Fu Da Lai Zi's sack and shouted loudly.
"My little bag! My cloth sack!"
"You stole my cloth bag! That's my allowance from my mother!"
"Don't talk nonsense, kid! That's my money!"
Fu Ming stepped forward and pulled his niece away, then without saying a word, emptied Fu Da Laizi's pockets.
A small cloth bag embroidered with tiny red flowers was pulled out, and Wang Xiuer shouted in a loud voice:
"Hey, you big rascal, you're a grown man using a child's cloth bag?"
"Pah! How shameless! You even steal a child's allowance!"
Fu Honghong, who was closest to the bag, also saw it. She had seen Fu Ling's little bag before. This adult was actually lying.
Fu Ling stepped forward, snatched her small pocket, and took out a small stack of one-cent coins.
"Uncle, why are you taking the pocket money my mom gave me!"
Fu Dalaizi forced a defense, "I was drunk, I couldn't see clearly, I must have seen wrong!"
"Bullshit! You can't see clearly, yet you managed to sneak into my house! You even took my grocery money!"
Ye Xiaocui came charging from the front yard with a kitchen knife, yelling, "Give me back my money!"
Fu Ming quickly stopped his mother, "You big rascal, if you want to live, hand over the money now, otherwise I won't be able to stop my mother when she gets angry!"
Fu Da Laizi remained unmoved by either pleading or threats. "I didn't take that cloth bag! I...I don't know how this girl's money ended up with me!"
Listen to what kind of talk this is!
Fu Wan, however, sensed something amiss. "We never said my mom used a cloth bag to carry money. How do you know it's a cloth bag if you didn't take it?"
Everyone suddenly realized what was happening, and then looked at Fu Da Laizi with reproachful eyes.
Boss Fu came out after checking the house. "You pried two locks off my house and ransacked it. You big bastards, did you think my house was easy to bully just because I haven't done anything in a while?"
The lock had been pried open, and now it couldn't be closed again. Boss Fu casually tossed the lock at Fu Da Lai Zi's feet, but it accidentally hit Fu Da Lai Zi's toe, making him wince in pain.
"Anyway, I didn't take it!"
The few dollars Fu Ling had weren't enough to convict him!
"Fu Ming, search him!"
Fu Ming received orders to search the body. Fu Da Lai Zi tried to dodge with a gloomy face, but Fu Liang held him down firmly.
"You're being indecent! I'm going to sue you!"
After feeling around for a while, Fu Ming finally found the location of the cloth bag, but he had some complicated feelings about it.
"You shameless bastard! You actually hid my family's money there!"
