"Sister-in-law, think about it carefully. Maybe you remembered it wrongly and put it somewhere else."
"Impossible, you know, your sister-in-law and I are famous for my good memory, how could I be wrong. If I really can't find it, it means there is a thief in the house. It's so infuriating. When I find the thief, I will definitely show no mercy." Meng Li said, and searched under the sink again.
Hearing Meng Li say this, Wencai was a little scared. It seemed that it was not safe to keep these things on him. His sister-in-law was a heartless person. He said nothing more and quietly slipped into his room, thinking about where to hide these things!
Bedside table? No, it's too obvious here. Wen just opened the drawer and closed it again.
Under the pillow? My sister-in-law is a woman, so it's easy for her to think of such a place. Wencai put the pillow back down.
…
He was like an ant on a hot pot, running around the house anxiously, putting it away and taking it out, taking it out and looking for another place to put it. Finally, he found the perfect place, which was in his pile of smelly socks.
He actually thought of such a funny thing, which really makes people admire him.
Without Shumei to do the laundry, Wencai's socks piled up in a pile. He would take them off after wearing them for two days, and then take them out and wear them again when they were no longer needed. The smell of the dirty socks was unbearable for most people, so his method was really good.
Meng Li came back from the bathroom and sat down on the sofa angrily.
"My dear wife, who made you so angry?" Li Wenxue saw Meng Li's dark face and asked her jokingly with a smile.
"Who else? There was a burglary at home, and my watch and ring are missing from the sink."
"No way! There is no outsider in this house! Maybe you put it in the wrong place? Let me help you look for it carefully again." Li Wenxue said, and prepared to get up and go to the bathroom.
Meng Li pulled him back to sit on the sofa, "Sit down, I'm almost tearing down the toilet. Do you have the ability to fly and hide? Are you ready to dig three feet into the ground?"
"Well, then... then I'll accompany you to buy another one tomorrow, a more beautiful one. Let's just leave it at that. Don't be angry anymore, okay? Baby." Li Wenxue grabbed Meng Li's hand and persuaded her kindly.
Meng Li is a person who strives for perfection in everything. How could she tolerate any sand in her eyes? She just couldn't swallow this bitter pill.
In her heart, she already pointed the finger at Shumei. She thought again and again that if Shumei really did it, she couldn't keep her at home anymore. A nanny like this with such dirty hands would be a constant threat if she stayed, and who knows when she would turn the house upside down. More importantly, she was worried about the safety of her little Shitou.
Wencai had been hiding behind the door, climbing on it, eavesdropping on what was happening outside.
"What's the point of calculating? I must catch this thief today. Go, call all the family members to the living room." Meng Li pushed Li Wenxue and asked him to call people.
Li Wenxue was shy and had an embarrassed expression on his face.
"Isn't this a bad idea? We're all family, why take it so seriously? What if..."
"What family? Are you so sure we are a family? Isn't there an outsider? Go quickly, don't dawdle."
Meng Li interrupted Li Wenxue harshly, yelling at him to hurry up. Li Wenxue had no choice but to get up and call Shumei and the others.
Li Yushu, who was sitting in a rocking chair not far away, heard Meng Li's scolding, turned around, and asked in a puzzled tone: "Meng Li! What happened?"
"Dad, there was a thief at home. My watch and ring were stolen."
"What? There's a thief?" Li Yushu suddenly sat up from the rocking chair, his eyes wide in shock.
Li Wenxue called Shumei, who was busy in the kitchen, to the living room, and also called Wencai, who was eavesdropping in the room.
Wencai deliberately yawned, looking sleepy as he slumped down on the freestanding sofa. He kept muttering to himself: "What national event is going on? I can't even sleep peacefully during my nap. I'm having a sweet dream!"
Shumei, who was unaware of the situation, walked into the living room while wiping her wet hands on the apron.
Li Wenxue sat on the sofa and said to Meng Li, "Wife, everyone is here. If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"Go, go call Mom in."
"Meng Li, you're going too far! Do you even doubt my mother?"
"What are you doubting? Mom is the elder in the family. She has the right to know. Go quickly."
Wenxue, who had been filled with righteous indignation just now, suddenly lost his temper. He walked to the door and called the old lady who was chatting in the yard with Xiao Shitou into the house.
Shumei, who was unaware of the situation, was the only one in the room with a relaxed look on her face, while the others all had gloomy expressions on their faces.
When he heard about the burglary, Li Yushu's first thought was Wencai. He knew his daughter-in-law's temper and would not give up until she found the truth. If this matter got out, he would not know where to put his face.
Li Wenxue was of course well aware of his wife's temper. He was worried that if the thief wasn't Shumei, wouldn't his wife be slapping the two elderly people in the face? So his expression was no better than Li Yushu's.
As for Meng Li, her expression was full of different things. Angry? Furious? Impatient? Anyway, her face was surprisingly ugly.
When the old aunt came in and saw such a family, she was shocked.
"What's wrong with you? What happened? You all look so sad. Weren't you all fine just now?"
Meng Li couldn't wait to tell her aunt about the situation, "Mom, there was a burglary at home. The watch and ring I put on the sink are gone."
