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 needs to know how much her mother stole and where she put it. Only then can she cooperate with the outside forces. After all, if you catch a thief, you must seize the stolen goods. If you catch a person, you must seize both!"
Before going to bed at night, they found Lian Fengxia and told her about this. She immediately agreed with both hands.
"Oh, Weiwei, you guys really helped me out. I really didn't know how to get him back! Don't you know how shocked he was when he came back home that night and saw my mom and brother eating so much that their mouths were full of oil and peanuts and sunflower seed shells were spit out all over the floor?"
"Especially when I told him that they had taken all the money from our house, Chuanling was really furious. But he couldn't really do anything to my mother, so he could only be angry! My mother and my brother occupied the room. Chuanling was so angry that he didn't even eat dinner. He just grabbed a change of clothes and went to the team. This made the relationship between my husband and me quite 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 climb into bed without even washing her feet. Her feet were so smelly that the room was uninhabitable.
Otherwise, people say that it smells as bad as an old lady’s foot binding, smelly and long!
Especially old rural ladies like her mother, who don’t know how to wash their feet at all.
In the summer, at most, she would go to the river to wash her feet. If you tell her about this, she would definitely be furious and say something like, "Who would boil water to wash their feet? It's a waste of firewood!"
So, even though Damao was vomiting from the smoke, she didn't say anything because she had more important things to do.
Glancing outside, she followed Song Shiwei's instructions and murmured, "Hey, are the mops outside confiscated 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 quickly!"
Zhao Cuihua nodded thoughtfully: "Oh, sleep, sleep, sleep!"
Lian Fengxia saw that she was thinking about him, so she couldn't help but smile secretly, then hugged Damao and lay down to sleep.
After a while, Damao fell asleep, but she remained awake. After about an hour, she heard the rustling sound of someone putting on clothes next to her.
It was dark at night, and she quietly opened her eyes a crack, and saw her mother put on her clothes, tiptoe out of bed, open the door and go out.
Don't forget 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 anymore!"
Lian Dajun and Lian Sanjun were sleeping soundly. She called them several times but they didn't wake up. She even heard snoring, which made her very angry!
She didn't dare to knock on the door hard. She was so angry that she slapped her thigh, looked around, and tiptoed out alone.
Lian Fengxia heard the sound of the door opening and closing and hurried out.
Zhao Cuihua walked in front and she followed from 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 people out, put them on his shoulders, and then seeing that there was no one around, he quickly ran away with the mop.
Lian Fengxia hurriedly chased after her, but she didn't dare get too close to her for fear of being discovered.
It turned out that her mother walked a long way, found a small forest, 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 jogged all the way back home and crawled into bed. Just as she had finally caught her breath, she heard her mother coming back.
She quickly pretended to be asleep.
Zhao Cuihua was also smart. She even leaned over to Lian Fengxia to take a look, and used her hand to feel her breathing. Seeing that her breathing was long and deep, and she 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, Sun Meimei and others discovered that ten mops were missing from under the oilcloth!
"Weiwei, I ordered it before I went to bed. It's exactly fifty-seven, not a single one less!"
Sun Meimei affirmed.
Jian Qiu also nodded: "I can testify, I counted them, and there are indeed ten missing. Look, there are only forty-seven now!"
Those sisters-in-law who were working there would generally not move around. They were counting on Song Shiwei to pay them. If they really stole the mop, they would have to sell it and risk being discovered. Wouldn't that be a waste of time and effort?
So, generally no one moves.
Song Shi smiled and said, "Then I guess the fish has taken the bait! 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 mother is!"
Sun Meimei also laughed: "Your old lady is quite vigilant. She even checked your breathing! This is too scary!"
Wang Chunxiang grinned happily: "Now, there's nothing to worry about. Let her steal for two more days, and we'll be able to 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 promise I saw it clearly, 100% clearly, she really did have 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 pondered: "Then Sister Fengxia should pay more attention tonight!"
Wang Chunxiang rushed to say, "I just 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 good look!"
