Chapter 17: Bewitched by a Fox Spirit]

Many people in the village know that after Ye Yong died, the Ye family received a pension.

A few hours ago, when the family division took place, old man Ye cried and howled, and everyone could guess that the pension was probably taken away by Ye Qingyue.

But no one expected that there was actually 300 yuan.

"Such a lot of money..."

"What's the use of having so much? Wasn't it stolen clean by someone?"

"This family is so unlucky."

When the villagers knew that Ye Qingyue received the pension, they were a little jealous, but now they only felt sympathy.

"What did you say?!"

Ye Qingyue was also shocked when she heard this.

She had agreed with Ye Feng before that when someone asked if anything was missing from the family, she would say that more than 40 yuan from the division was missing.

But I didn't expect Ye Feng to be so bold and directly say that the pension was gone!

Ye Feng also had his considerations.

He knew that Ye Qingyue's idea was not to covet the few tens of dollars, but to keep a low profile.

His family is now an orphan and a widow, and everyone knows that they have received a large sum of money.

Ye Feng still understands the principle of committing a crime by possessing a jade.

If he said that the money was stolen, no one would have other thoughts.

In this case, just play it big.

Just say that the pension is gone!

In order to prevent Old Man Ye and others from wanting to plot against their family in the future and leaking the news of the 300 yuan pension to bring them disaster.

"Sister, what should we do?"

Ye Feng wiped his tears, the spicy smell of garlic brushed past the corners of his eyes, he cried more sincerely: "There are only forty or so yuan left in the family, and we have to repair the house. I haven't been feeling well recently... cough cough cough! I have to spend money again... It's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the bag... cough cough cough--"

He coughed while talking, his face turned red, and he looked miserable.

"Alas, Xiang Hong's family will have a hard time in the future."

"Without a man and without money, if it were me, I would want to find a tree to hang myself to avoid suffering!"

"Shh, keep your voice down, do you think her family is not bad enough?"

The onlookers also felt that Ye Qingyue's family was really unlucky.

"Ah Feng, how can you be blamed for this? The one who really did something wrong was obviously the thief..."

Ye Qingyue went over and hugged Ye Feng's shoulders, wiping her eyes, "Don't cry, I can't help crying if you cry..."

Seeing that Ye Qingyue didn't have many tears, Ye Feng helped her wipe her eyes, "Sister, don't cry either..."

Ye Qingyue felt a spicy taste in her eyes, and she cried even harder.

Is her brother such a sinister person?

Seeing the brother and sister crying, everyone felt sad.

"Qingyue girl, don't worry, we will definitely help you find the thief!"

The village chief stood up with a serious look.

The team leader and Qian Yun also took this matter very seriously and said that they would go to the county police station to report the case tomorrow.

After comforting Ye Qingyue and a few others, everyone dispersed and spontaneously formed teams to look for the thief.

Ye Qingyue was about to take Ye Xianghong and Ye Feng back to the house when she suddenly felt a piercing gaze sweeping over her.

She was sharp and noticed it, and looked back. She

saw a girl about her age holding the village chief's arm in the direction where the village chief left.

While the girl was talking to the village chief, she pretended to look at her casually.

Ye Qingyue caught the girl's unfriendly gaze.

After being discovered, the girl did not hide it, and glared at Ye Qingyue coldly, then turned around and walked away with the village chief, talking and laughing.

"Zheng Yanyan."

Ye Feng's somewhat cold voice rang beside Ye Qingyue, "Sister, she was the one who..."

Ye Feng did not finish the rest of the words.

Her mother is still around. If she knew that Ye Qingyue was pushed into the river today and almost drowned, she would definitely go crazy on the spot and seek revenge on Zheng Yanyan.

Now that the Ye family's affairs have not been resolved, it is not wise to offend the village chief again.

"Did she come here to confirm your situation?" Ye Feng frowned, and became more and more disgusted with Zheng Yanyan.

She did something bad, but she didn't apologize at all. Instead, she took the opportunity to watch the excitement to inquire about the situation. It's really disgusting!

Ye Qingyue retracted her gaze and said lightly: "Don't pay attention to her, she's just a little clown."

Zheng Yanyan was actually instigated by Ye Fang to push her into the river.

Ye Fang knew that Li Qiang, the educated youth that Zheng Yanyan had a crush on, had a crush on Ye Qingyue, so she approached Zheng Yanyan and told her that Ye Qingyue was devastated after being rejected by Xu Wenshu and was worried about finding another buyer.

When Zheng Yanyan heard this, she immediately thought of Li Qiang, and was worried that her beloved man had been seduced by a vixen.

That day, she happened to see Ye Qingyue sitting by the river in a daze, and she pushed Ye Qingyue into the river on impulse and ran away.

In her previous life, when the police interrogated Zheng Yanyan, she confessed all this.

The culprit was Ye Fang, and Zheng Yanyan was just using the gun.

Ye Qingyue would not consider her as an opponent, she was not qualified, a brainless guy, and it would not be too late to deal with her when she had time.

"You are quite brave."

Ye Qingyue brought her mother and brother into the house. After avoiding the eyes and ears outside, she couldn't help pinching Ye Feng's skinny face.

"Sister, am I not doing this to prevent future troubles?" Ye Feng was still very honest in front of Ye Qingyue, and was pinched on the face obediently.

Ye Qingyue did not blame him.

After all, these little tricks were taught to Ye Feng by herself.

It's just that I didn't expect Ye Feng to apply them flexibly, and he was even better than me.

"Being smart is not a bad thing, but it must be used in the right way."

Ye Qingyue was pleased with Ye Feng's flexible mind, but also a little worried, "Ah Feng, we do this just to protect ourselves. You can't use these tricks to hurt others in the future."

"Sister, am I that bad in your heart?"

Ye Feng felt aggrieved and wanted to get away with it.

But seeing Ye Qingyue's serious expression, he also took it seriously: "Sister, don't worry, I won't hurt anyone. I don't want to become like my grandfather and second uncle."

He just wanted to be strong and protect his family!

Ye Qingyue smiled, rubbed his head, and said: "Okay, go to bed quickly, it will be dawn soon, and you will be busy tomorrow."

"Yeah!"

Ye Feng nodded.

"Mom, aren't you going to sleep?"

Ye Qingyue was lying on the bed, and saw Ye Xianghong still standing, and couldn't help wondering.

"There's a thief." Ye Xianghong held the kitchen knife she had picked up in her hand, "I'll keep watch, you two can sleep peacefully."

Ye Qingyue felt warm in her heart, got up and pulled Ye Xianghong, and took her to bed with her, "Mom, don't worry, the captain and his men are patrolling outside, there will be no more trouble tonight, you can sleep well too."

She whispered, "You've worked so hard today..."

After solving a crisis, Ye Qingyue smelled the scent of her mother and felt doubly relieved, and fell asleep quickly.

Ye Xianghong looked at the sleeping face of the lady in the moonlight, gently touched the lady's back, quietly took away her hand on her body, sat at the door of the bedroom with the kitchen knife in hand, and fell asleep leaning against it.

...

Late at night, at Old Man Ye's house.

Ye Zhenghua bit a piece of cloth in his mouth, covered his thigh with cold sweat, and looked grim, as if he was enduring great pain.

"Zhenghua, are you okay?"

Granny Li wiped her tears anxiously and said to Old Man Ye who was smoking a pipe: "Dad, if it really doesn't work, let's go call Doctor Wang!"

Old Man Ye glared at her: "When Doctor Wang comes and sees the injuries on Zhenghua's body, won't he know that he is a thief? Don't call a doctor!"
