Chapter 99: My Little Hen That Can Lay Eggs
The five people played until dark, and only dispersed when they saw that the villagers had returned one after another.
As soon as Jiang Hao sent the person to the door, he heard a heart-wrenching scream outside.
"Ah, who is it? Who is it? Which bastard stole my chicken? It's an old hen that can lay eggs."
Shi Luo heard the noise and came out, "What's going on? Someone's chicken was stolen again."
As Liu Cuihua walked out, she said, "The voice sounds like your Aunt Yan. We'll know if it's her when we go out and take a look."
Shi Luo followed Jiang Hao out and saw Aunt Yan sitting on the ground crying.
Jiang Hao and Aunt Yan were in the same team and often worked together, so they were naturally familiar with each other. When he saw Aunt Yan sitting on the ground, he said without hesitation,
"Auntie, it's so cold at night, why are you sitting on the ground crying? Hurry up and stand up."
Aunt Yan cried loudly, "Xiao Wu, Auntie has a miserable life. The little hen that I raised with great difficulty and can lay eggs was stolen again. How could this bastard steal my little hen that can lay eggs? He really deserves to be struck by lightning. Oh, God, please send lightning to kill this thief."
Jiang Hao touched his chin and said, "Auntie, this isn't the first time you've been robbed. You're not used to it yet. If it really doesn't work, I'll go to the commune and call the police for you. That's a hen."
Before Aunt Yan could say anything after hearing what Jiang Hao said, her eldest daughter-in-law, who was standing nearby, became anxious and said, "There's no need to call the police. We're all from the same village. It's not necessary to go to the police station. Besides, how can we be sure that it was stolen? What if it was stolen by a yellow-skinned person?"
Jiang Jianguo glanced at Liu Xiaoshu and said, "This is the sixth time our team has lost chickens, and your family has been involved three times. I think it's better to call the police.
Jiang Hao said fearlessly, "I think so too. If we don't call the police, I guess sooner or later all the chickens in our team will be stolen by that thief."
Liu Xiaoshu's eyelids twitched when he heard this. "If it was stolen by a human, we would have called the police. But if it was stolen by an animal, wouldn't that be a joke? Let's not bother the police, what do you think?"
Liu Xiaoshu winked at her mother-in-law while speaking. Liu Xiaoshu almost hated her mother-in-law to death. When she got home and saw that the chicken was gone, she didn't even have time to say a word before the old woman came out to make a fuss. There was really no chance to stop her.
Aunt Yan suddenly came to her senses when she saw Liu Xiaoshu's expression. She immediately knew who had stolen her chickens. Even though she was heartbroken, she didn't dare cry. She stammered, "Yes, yes, yes, it might have been taken away by a yellow fox, not necessarily stolen by someone."
Jiang Jianguo snorted and laughed, "So you don't want to call the police, and you don't want to look for your whore, right?"
Aunt Yan was so angry that she had to swallow her anger. Thinking of her little hen that laid eggs every day, she felt like she was soaked in bitter water. But for the sake of her son, she had to bite her teeth and admit, "Yes, I won't look for it anymore. I'll go back and see if it was dragged away by the yellow-skinned guy."
Seeing her mother-in-law say this, Liu Xiaoshu quickly stepped forward to help the person up, "Yes, yes, I'll accompany my mother home to take a look. Everyone should go home. It's time to eat."
Shi Luo watched the excitement fade away, and after entering the yard, he quietly asked Jiang Hao, "What's going on? Why did he become so withdrawn when I mentioned calling the police?"
Jiang Hao stopped and said sarcastically, "Everyone in our team knows that the chicken thief is Aunt Yan's grandson, Erluzi, but we have no evidence to prove that he stole the chicken. We can't find him. We should call the police, but his children are still young, so calling the police may not be helpful. That's why no one mentioned calling the police.
I guess Aunt Yan just came back from the movies and suddenly realized the chicken was gone, so she panicked and forgot about her eldest grandson, which is why she made a scene. But when her daughter-in-law reminded her, she remembered it."
Shi Luo: "This grandson of his can steal things from his own family"
Liu Cuihua was right behind them and heard Shi Luo and Jiang Hao's chatter. "Although most of the team members are out today, they've also locked their chickens inside. Erluzi can climb over the wall and get into the yard, but he can't pry open the door lock, so he can only steal from his own house."
Shi Luo nodded. "Why can't he just not steal? Why does he have to steal chickens?"
Jiang Hao smiled and said, "Erluzi didn't just steal chickens, he was selling them. I guess he made a deal on the black market today and someone wanted to buy from him. He couldn't catch any pheasants at the moment, and he couldn't steal chickens from other people's houses either, so he had no choice but to steal chickens from other people's houses to sell."
Jiang Jianguo was at a loss as to what to do with this idiot. "We can't catch him now, and we can't punish him even if we want to. Although most people know that he stole chickens, few know that he sold them on the black market. Don't tell anyone, it won't be good for our team if it gets out of hand."
Jiang Hao: "Oh, Dad, how could we not know the seriousness of the matter? As long as he can't steal from me, I don't care. Okay, Shi Luo and I are going back to the house. You and Mom should go back quickly too."
The Jiang family's daughters-in-law were a little afraid of Jiang Jianguo, so after watching the fun, they entered the yard and went back to their rooms to cook. They didn't hear what the four people said.
Jiang Hao and Shi Luo had just finished cooking dinner when they heard Jiang Yinyin's voice in the yard.
Jiang Hao didn't go out either, so he opened the window facing the yard.
Shi Luo stood in the house and saw through the window that Jiang Yinyin and a strange man were standing in the yard and talking to Jiang Jianguo.
The three people didn't deliberately lower their voices, so Jiang Hao and Shi Luo could still hear them clearly.
