Chapter 169 Stealing the Mop

Sun Meimei and the others smiled and nodded: "Okay!"

Wang Chunxiang looked outside and asked, "Should we talk to Fengxia about this?"

Song Shi smiled and said, "Of course I have to tell you. Sister Fengxia is a key figure. She has to know how much her mother stole and where she put it. Only then can she cooperate with the outside forces. After all, we have to catch the thief and the stolen goods, and we have to catch both the man and the woman!"

Before going to bed at night, they found Lian Fengxia and told her about this. She quickly raised her hands to agree.

"Oh, Weiwei, you guys really helped me a lot. I really don't know how to get him back! You don't know how shocked he was when he came back to pick him up at night and saw my mom and brother eating greasy food at my house, with peanuts and sunflower seed shells spit all over the floor?"

"Especially when I told him that they had taken away the money at home, Chuan Ling was really angry, but he couldn't really do anything to my mother, so he could only be angry! My mother and my brother occupied the room, and Chuan Ling was so angry that he didn't even eat dinner. He took his clothes and went to the team, which made the relationship between my husband and me a lot more strained!"

"So, thank you so much, I don't know what to do! Don't worry, I will keep an eye on them even if I don't sleep at night!"

So, at night, before Lian Fengxia turned off the lights, she watched her mother crawl into bed without even washing her feet. Her feet were so smelly that the whole room was uninhabitable.

Otherwise, people say that it stinks like an old lady’s foot binding, smelly and long!

Especially an old rural lady like her mother, who simply doesn't know how to wash her feet.

In summer, she would at most go to the river to wash her feet. If you tell her about this, she would be so angry that she would say something like "Who knows how to heat water to wash feet? It's not even a waste of firewood!"

So, even though Damao was nauseated by the smoke, she didn't say anything because she had more important things to do.

After looking outside, she followed Song Shiwei's instructions and murmured, "Hey, didn't you collect the mops outside today?"

As soon as she said this, she saw her mother suddenly sit up and stretch her head to look outside.

"Confiscated? Just left it there?"

Lian Fengxia nodded: "But it's okay, it shouldn't rain, and it's covered with oilcloth! Mom, let's go to bed!"

Zhao Cuihua nodded thoughtfully: "Oh, sleep, sleep, sleep!"

Lian Fengxia saw that she was thinking about him, so she couldn't help but smile quietly, then she lay down with Damao in her arms and fell asleep.

After a while, Damao fell asleep, but she was still awake. After about an hour, she heard the rustling sound of someone getting dressed next to her.

It was dark at night, and she quietly peeked open a crack, and saw her mother put on her clothes, tiptoed out of bed, opened the door and went out.

And remember to close the door for her.

Lian Fengxia quickly got up, walked quietly to the door and listened, and sure enough, she heard her mother calling her eldest and third brothers to get up.

"Dajun, San'er, get up quickly, don't sleep any more!"

Lian Dajun and Lian Sanjun were sleeping soundly. She called them several times but they didn't wake up. They even snored, which made her very angry!

She didn't dare to knock on the door hard. She slapped her thigh in anger, looked around, and tiptoed out alone.

Lian Fengxia heard the sound of the door opening and closing and hurriedly followed him out.

Zhao Cuihua walked in front and she followed at a distance behind.

I saw her walk to the oilcloth covering the mop and lift it a little.

When I saw that there were really tied mops inside, I almost jumped for joy.

He dragged four or five of them out, put them on his shoulders, looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he quickly ran away with the mop in his arms.

Lian Fengxia chased after her closely, and she didn't dare to get too close to her for fear of being discovered.

It turned out that her mother had walked a long way, found a small woods, and hid the mop under a pile of dead branches.

She also scattered some fallen leaves to cover it, and when it was almost unrecognizable, she clapped her hands triumphantly and walked back.

Lian Fengxia was so scared that she ran home quickly.

She trotted all the way back home and crawled into bed. Just as she finally caught her breath, she heard her mother coming back.

She quickly pretended to be asleep.

Zhao Cuihua was also a smart person. She even deliberately leaned over to take a look at Lian Fengxia, and used her hand to feel her breathing. Seeing that her breathing was long and deep and it didn't look like she was woken up, she happily took off her clothes and went to sleep.

Lian Fengxia was so frightened that she finally fell asleep after a long time, until she heard Zhao Cuihua snoring next to her.

When they woke up the next morning, Song Shiwei and Sun Meimei discovered that ten mops were missing from under the oilcloth!

"Weiwei, I ordered it before going to bed. It's exactly fifty-seven, not a single one less!"

Sun Meimei affirmed.

Jian Qiu also nodded: "I can also testify, I counted and there are ten missing, you see there are only forty-seven now!"

Those sisters-in-law who were working along would generally not make trouble. They still had to rely on Song Shiwei to pay them. If they really stole the mop, they would have to sell it and risk being discovered. Isn't that a loss without gain?

So, generally no one moves.

Song Shi smiled and said, "Then I guess the fish has been hooked! We can ask Sister Fengxia when she comes later!"

As they were talking, Lian Fengxia came over and told them excitedly about how she had followed her mother last night.

"Oh, you don't know how scary my mom is!"

Sun Meimei also laughed: "Your old lady is quite alert. She even checked your breathing! This is too scary!"

Wang Chunxiang grinned happily: "Now, we don't have to worry. Let her steal for two more days and we can catch her!"

At that moment, Song Shiwei suddenly said, "Sister-in-law Fengxia, how many did your mother steal?"

Lian Fengxia thought for a moment and said, "Five!"

Now even Sun Meimei and the others realized that something was wrong.

"Five? But we lost ten!"

"Yes! What's going on? Didn't you see clearly, Fengxia?"

Lian Fengxia was anxious: "I guarantee that I saw it clearly, 100% clearly, she really took five mops! If you don't believe me, come with me to where she hid the mops and take a look!"

Wang Chunxiang asked anxiously, "Could it be that after you fell asleep, Fengxia, she went out again and you didn't see her?"

After hearing her say this, Lian Fengxia really began to have some doubts.

"No way... Could it be that she really went there again while I was sleeping?"

Song Shiwei groaned: "Then Sister Fengxia should pay more attention tonight!"

Wang Chunxiang rushed to say: "I don't believe this. I won't sleep tonight. I want to take a good look and see who stole our mop!"

Sun Meimei also agreed: "I'll go with you, let's take a closer look!"
