Feng Qiao'er hadn't expected that Granny Xu would return so quickly after her trip. She quickly put the few coins she'd found into her belt and replied in a panic, "Mother... Mother, didn't you say you were going to someone's house and would be back later? Why didn't you chat a little longer?"
"If I talk any longer, I see you've ransacked my room. Take out what you hid in your belt."
Feng Qiao'er didn't expect that even at her age, Grandma Xu still had such sharp eyesight. However, in front of Grandma Xu, she still argued cunningly, "I didn't take anything from you. I... hehe, mother... I think you misunderstood me. I went into your room because I wanted to help you clean up. You see, you stay in the room every day and rarely come out. It's rare for you to go out, so I wanted to make you happy when you come back. If you don't believe me, go in and take a look. Is the room tidier than before?"
"You jinx, do you think I'm as easy to fool as my son? Stop talking and take out what you hid in your belt."
"Mom...I really didn't hide anything."
Unexpectedly, Grandma Xu was so difficult to deal with. Feng Qiaoer retreated guiltily and moved to the room of Village Chief Xu.
But Grandma Xu still pressed on and pressed the issue.
"If you're not hiding anything, then take out everything from your belt. What's the point of being so secretive? Hurry up..."
"mother……"
How could Feng Qiaoer dare to take out the things in her belt? If Grandma Xu saw the few copper coins she stole and reported it to Village Chief Xu, wouldn’t the support she had worked so hard to find be gone?
She didn't know what to do, and in her frustration, her hand touched a hoe leaning against the wall.
Suddenly, an evil gleam flashed in Feng Qiaoer's eyes, and one hand tightly grasped the end of the hoe. She was waiting. As long as Grandma Xu really approached her again, she would hit her to death with the hoe. Anyway, there was no one else in the room. If Grandma Xu really died, she would say it was an accident, that Grandma Xu had slipped and hit the wall. She believed that with the love that Village Chief Xu had for her, Village Chief Xu would not doubt her.
Waiting quietly, seeing Grandma Xu's footsteps getting closer and closer, Feng Qiaoer picked up the hoe.
"Mom, I'm back. Look what I bought?"
Bang!
The sound of Village Chief Xu coming back from outside scared Feng Qiaoer, and the hoe in her hand fell to the ground with a bang.
Hearing this sound, Grandma Xu subconsciously glanced at the hoe on the ground. She asked with a grim expression, "Why is the hoe here? Feng Qiaoer, you are not going to kill me with the hoe, are you?"
Seeing Village Chief Xu walk into the house, Feng Qiaoer immediately ran up to him and cried out in grievance, "Sir, mother said I wanted to beat her to death with a hoe. How could I possibly do that? Woo woo woo... She's my future mother-in-law. I can't wait to be filial to her. I really don't have any bad intentions towards her. Sir, you must believe me..."
Village Chief Xu also heard what Grandma Xu said. He glanced at Feng Qiao'er, who was crying so hard. He frowned and said to Grandma Xu, "Mom, how could Qiao'er do this to you? I took that hoe to the yard to weed last night, and when I came back, I put it in the room. I think Qiao'er must have accidentally bumped into it, and it fell to the ground. Look at you... a hoe can cause trouble in the house."
