There was a sound of dog barking in the kitchen, and Ye Li was awakened by the sound.
She sat up and listened, and felt as if there was some movement outside, so she reached out to touch the bedside lamp.
There was still no call in the middle of the night and the house was pitch dark.
Noticing the movement of the people around him, Jiang Xun also woke up from his sleep: "What's wrong?"
"There was a dog barking in the kitchen just now." Ye Li said, "I put the chicken in the kitchen and let the dog watch it. Did someone steal the chicken in the kitchen?"
The people she was talking about were Huang Xiuxiu and her two sons.
No one else can do such a thing.
"Didn't you put a mousetrap in the kitchen?" Jiang Xun turned over and faced Ye Li.
"That's next to the meat bowl. I didn't put it next to the chicken! Jiang Xun, I want to go and take a look."
...
...
"Don't go." Jiang Xun grabbed her arm.
"Why not? Maybe if I go now, I can catch them in the act!"
"What will happen if we catch him?" Jiang Xun asked.
"Once we catch them, of course we'll make them leave their belongings behind! Let everyone see the ugly faces of Huang Xiuxiu and her son!" Ye Li clenched his fists.
"Everyone in the courtyard knows their true colors."
"So what do you say we should do?"
In the darkness, Jiang Xun curled his lips and said, "Then let them suffer a little and learn a lesson."
Ye Li blinked: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Xun motioned for her to come closer and whispered a few words in her ear.
"Ah? This... Is this possible?"
"Try it?"
Ye Li laughed twice: "Okay."
Jiang Xun: "Then I'll wait for your good news."
Ye Li put on his clothes and was about to open the door to walk out when he suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps passing by the door.
She paused.
After the footsteps passed, she opened the door, tiptoed to the kitchen, and fumbled to find the door lock.
Unexpectedly, the door lock was opened by someone.
She remembered clearly that when she and her mother-in-law left, they locked the door tightly, for fear that someone would come to steal the chickens.
Now someone has poked the door open, and it seems that they are going after the chickens in her kitchen.
"You naughty kid, you've grown up a lot." Ye Li said nothing, turned around and hid near the screen wall.
Even when the door was open, you could still hear the rustling noises of chickens and dogs in the house.
She didn't know why that person failed to achieve his goal, but her intuition told her that he would not give up and would come back.
Otherwise, the door lock would not be left open like this, it would definitely be locked again.
She might as well just sit back and wait.
After waiting for a while, she felt a little sleepy, but no one came.
Maybe she guessed wrong and the person is not coming.
Ye Li stood up and was about to leave when he saw a figure flash out from the backyard.
Even though there was a power outage, the weather was gloomy and the moon was not visible, there was still some light.
In the dim light, she vaguely saw the outline of an adult moving towards the kitchen of her home.
At first she thought the figure was Huang Xiuxiu, but after careful observation, she realized that it was not Huang Xiuxiu.
Huang Xiuxiu is a woman, her frame is not that big, and she wears a braid.
The person in front of me didn't have one, it was obvious that this was a man.
There are three families living in the backyard.
One household is Huang Xiuxiu and her two sons, and the other is an old lady with a weird temper. However, the old lady went to her hometown to visit relatives and has not lived here for nearly a year.
In addition, there is a young couple living there. They both work in the workshop and work night shifts all year round.
There is night shift allowance for working the night shift, which allows one to earn a little more money than working the day shift, so the couple works the night shift and is almost never at home at night.
Excluding everyone in the backyard, who is this man?
Ye Li was a little nervous and tightly grasped the feather duster in his hand.
Yes, she came out with a feather duster.
The man pushed the door open and walked in, then heard the dog barking a few times.
Suddenly, the dog's barking stopped, and then a muffled groan was heard from the man.
Ye Li took advantage of this opportunity and quietly moved towards the kitchen door.
"Ah... um... Sihasha..."
There was a strange noise coming from the kitchen, followed by the clucking sound of chickens.
Then the kitchen door opened and the figure walked out.
Ye Li saw that the man was holding a chicken in one hand. Without saying a word, she swung the feather duster at the man.
One blow after another, they landed firmly on the man's body.
The chicken was also frightened and started clucking randomly.
The man didn't dare to scream at all. Even though he was jumping around in pain, he clenched his teeth tightly and didn't dare to make a sound.
"Beat you to death! Beat you to death, you chicken thief!" Ye Li waved the feather duster and hit him hard.
The man was running around in the yard when suddenly there was a snap and the feather duster broke.
The man rushed to the door and was about to open it and run out.
"Want to run? No way! Where are you going!" Ye Li held the door tightly and looked at the man's face.
The man was afraid that Ye Li would see his face, so he kept his head down and pulled at Ye Li.
Despite this, Ye Li still saw the man's face inadvertently.
The moment she saw it clearly, she felt very surprised, but when she thought about it carefully, she was not so surprised.
When the two were struggling happily, the man suddenly felt his legs being hugged from behind.
Before he could react, the other party pulled his leg violently.
With a bang, he landed on the ground.
The fall was quite severe and two of his front teeth were knocked out.
The pain was so severe that he could no longer bear it and started to cry out.
The commotion in the yard alarmed quite a few people.
Uncle Yuan came out first, shining a flashlight in his hand here and there.
"Hey, what's going on?"
When he saw Uncle Yuan, Jiang Xun pursed his lips tightly, turned his head to the side and said nothing.
"It's okay, we caught a thief!" Ye Li replied.
"What? A thief was caught? There was a thief in our yard?" After Grandpa Yuan finished speaking, he started shouting with a loud voice, "Come on, everyone, get up quickly! There was a thief in our yard! Everyone, get up quickly and help!"
When he shouted, all the neighbors in the yard put on their clothes and came out.
"Were we robbed? This thief is so bold that he even came to the territory of our machinery factory employees to steal things!" Aunt Liang also hurried out.
She is in charge of the hospital, and she has the responsibility to manage everything that happens in the hospital.
"What? Thief? Let me see where this little thief came from. This damn thing, is he tired of living? He stole things from us! Come, let me see who this blind little bastard is!" Aunt Jiang also rushed over.
