Chapter 59 The person who called the police was arrested
The young and middle-aged people in the village are all in the mountains, so those who went to Xiaoniu Village with the village chief are all older people, and Lu Xing is among them.
The situation in Xiaoniu Village was similar to theirs. When they came to Wang Bo'an's house, there were only him and his wife.
When he opened the door, he was shocked to see so many old men and women. "What are you doing, Lu Zhengde? Are you planning to bring people from your village here to cause trouble?"
Lu Zhengde pushed the two thugs forward and asked, "Do you know these two people?"
Wang Boan couldn't read, so he was startled when he saw the two thugs' clothes. "Well, you're really brave. You even dared to tie up the police. Are you trying to frame me by looking for me?"
"Don't accuse them wrongly. These two are thugs pretending to be police officers. We caught them. They said your nephew sent them to deceive us. Do you recognize them?"
He pushed the person forward so that Wang Boan could see more clearly.
Wang Boan didn't expect that the idiot was so unreliable. He asked him to find someone to pretend to be a policeman, but he exposed the person so quickly.
On the surface, he still acted clueless. "Ah? My nephew? Why would he hire someone to deceive you? You actually believed what a thug said?"
"It's because of the money we dug up from the mountains. When we were trying to rob the money, you people from Xiaoniu Village couldn't beat us, so you tried to find a way to cheat us out of the money."
Wang Boan had been the village chief for so many years. If he had been frightened by Lu Zhengde's words, he wouldn't have had the courage to do so many bad things. "Village Chief Lu, police investigations require evidence. You're really bullying us by coming to trouble us based on the words of two thugs."
"When I was the village chief, you were still lying in your mother's arms, nursing. That's not how you act as a village chief. Everything has to be based on evidence."
He patted Lu Zhengde's shoulder and said in a pretentious tone, "I'll let it go this time for your father's sake, but I might not do it this way next time."
The people in Xiaoshi Village were very angry when they heard what he said. They were all about the same age, so why was he taking advantage of his seniority?
"If you have the time to criticize our village chief, why don't you take care of the people in your village and see what kind of morals they have? Have you forgotten the incident with that family that set up a honey trap?"
"That's right, Jianjun was cheated so badly back then. He even got beaten when he came to ask for the money. That family had hidden over 40,000 yuan in their house, all of which was stolen from them. How evil! Why didn't you say anything about taking care of the people in your village?"
"And your nephew, who could have come up with the idea of hiring someone to impersonate a police officer? Does he really think others are fools?"
Lu Zhengde was too embarrassed to argue back, but the other elderly people who came with him were not afraid and scolded them without any mercy.
"That village originally belonged to our Xiaoshi Village, but you insisted on claiming it was yours. Now that money has been dug up in the mountains, and you can't compete with our village, are you jealous again?"
Wang Bo'an's wife, who had been listening inside for a long time, could not stay any longer. She thought that those who were scolding him outside were also scolding her.
She ran outside, pointed at Lu Zhengde and cursed, "You're talking nonsense! What does that family's affairs have to do with my family? Go find Wang Xin'an for the things he did. Why are you coming to our house? That money didn't even go to my family."
Wang Boan wished he had an extra pair of hands to cover his wife's mouth. Since he refused to admit it, there was nothing they could do to him.
Now that she said that, it seemed as if it was really happening.
He was afraid his wife would say something else, so he pulled her inside and chased them away, "You should go find Wang Xin'an. This has nothing to do with me."
Lu Zhengde came here to ask for an explanation, but Wang Boan refused to admit it and was ready to close the door and refuse visitors.
Things seem to have come to a standstill.
Suddenly, a small voice rang out among the crowd, "Village Chief, I know something that might be useful, but can you agree to one condition first?"
Lu Xing looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was Yufen. Because of the incident of stealing the bowl, she did not go up the mountain with others to look for money because she was afraid of being in trouble.
Unexpectedly, when she went out for some fresh air, she saw gangsters coming to cause trouble, and she couldn't help but come over to join in the fun.
Yufen originally didn't plan to speak, and just wanted to hide in the crowd and watch the fun quietly, but when she followed them to Xiaoniu Village and saw Lu Zhengde in trouble.
Her little thoughts began to arise.
When the others saw that it was her, they were more or less emotional.
Lu Zhengde: "What request?"
"I'm just asking the village chief if I can keep the bowls I brought. They don't want them anyway."
After the theft of the longevity bowls was exposed, Yufen no longer tried to hide it. She wanted to keep the bowls.
Hearing this request, Lu Zhengde felt a bit of a headache. "No, those are other people's. If you like them, you can just order them yourself."
"That's different. The longevity bowl should be made by an old person who has passed away. It brings good fortune and can bless me with a long life."
"Then why don't you just ask them honestly?"
"People leave it to their own children. If anyone is willing to give it to me, Village Chief, just tell me whether you agree or not. This information of mine will be very useful."
Lu Zhengde didn't know what to say, "How can I make decisions about other people's bowls?"
After Lu Xing learned from the system that Yufen had witnessed Wang Boan burying the money, he stood up and said, "Tell me what you know. Why are you always thinking about taking other people's bowls? Be careful that you won't be able to keep those bowls anymore."
The system told Lu Xing that the reason why Yufen ran into Wang Boan burying money was because she also hid a bowl on that mountain, and the two met while digging a hole.
But Wang Boan didn't see her.
Yufen knew that Lu Xing had some mysterious abilities, so she hesitated when she heard what she said. However, she was reluctant to part with the bowls she had collected.
Seeing her hesitation, Lu Zhengde tried to persuade her, "How about this, I'll ask others for you. If there's anyone willing to give out birthday bowls, can you pay for them?"
After hesitating for a long time, she reluctantly agreed to the condition.
"One day, I went to the mountain to dig a hole and bury some seeds. I happened to see Wang Boan digging there too. Not long after, I saw him dig out a box, put something in it, and buried it again."
"What? Was the money buried by Wang Boan?"
"What? That money belongs to our family?"
Two voices sounded simultaneously inside and outside the courtyard, and Wang Boan's daughter-in-law eavesdropped on their conversation behind the door.
After hearing that the money belonged to her, Wang Boan couldn't stop her. "Okay, you old man, you're so old, and you're still trying to hide your money like others. You'd rather bury so much money in the mountains than bring it back. You've really grown up."
"No, that money is not mine. The person outside must have mistaken me."
Wang Boan certainly couldn't accept this money openly. As a village chief, he only earned so little salary a year. It was obvious that it was impossible for him to save so much money.
What's more, there are not only banknotes but also silver.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have hidden it in the mountains and would have spent it long ago.
Yufen outside was also very sure, "I couldn't have been wrong. Wang Boan has such a long beard, I saw it clearly."
After hearing what was said outside, his wife also became anxious, "Okay, you still say it's not your money?"
"Doesn't that mean that the group of people on the mountain have dug up all our money? I'm going to call the police and make them give me back the money."
"That's all our family's money! You useless guy, you didn't even know how to hide so much money at home!"
"Shut up! I told you that's not my money. I made a mistake. Shut up and stop talking!"
When Lu Zhengde heard the noise outside, he immediately realized that the money might be wrong, so he deliberately shouted, "Whoever digs up this money belongs to him. Even if the police come, they have to be reasonable."
"Pah, what do you mean by nobody's money? That's my family's money. When the police come, they will make you spit out that money."
"Why are you stopping me? You haven't brought any money home in all these years, and now you're watching your own money go out? Am I wrong?"
Then the two of them started arguing, and at the end all they did was curse at each other.
Lu Zhengde whispered to the villagers, "Let's go, let's go back and wait. Village Chief Wang is in trouble."
"Is this true?"
"Really, really, if you don't believe me, go back and wait for news."
Two days later, I heard that the wife of the Xiaoniu Village chief had called the police, saying that people from two villages had stolen money from her family.
As a result, the person who stole the money did not get arrested, but the village chief was arrested.
