Chapter 126 Stolen Seedlings
"Dad, there's a hare over there!" Liang Huanxue suddenly shouted.
She pretended to be looking for a hare and moved over carefully, only to see the stolen seedlings planted in the corner of the yard.
After all, these seeds were grown with spiritual spring water, so even if they were planted in such a place, they still grew well.
Liang Huanxue waved to Liang Yuanwang, "Dad, come here quickly!"
Liang Yuanwang thought she had found a hare, so he hurried over, only to see her pointing to the corner of the yard and saying, "Dad, look, what is that?"
He looked carefully and found that the seedlings in the yard were actually the ones that had been stolen from their fields.
This made Liang Yuanwang look at the yard in front of him and confirm the identity of the owner again.
He really couldn't understand why Wu Hongcheng would do such a thing.
"Thief, come out!" Liang Huanxue stood at the gate of the courtyard and shouted loudly.
Wu Hongcheng walked out and looked at Liang Huanxue with a puzzled look on his face, "Huanxue, who are you calling?"
"You!" Liang Huanxue said angrily.
Wu Hongcheng was stunned. "You said I was a thief? Then tell me, what did I steal?"
Liang Huanxue didn't expect that even though she was standing here, he still didn't admit it.
She pushed open the door that was not closed and walked in, pointing at the seedlings in the corner. "Are you going to tell me that you planted these seedlings?"
"Sprouted vegetables?" Wu Hongcheng frowned. "These seedlings..."
Liang Yuanwang saw the father and daughter's eyes fall on him at the same time, both the old and the young looked like they were waiting to see how he was going to make up stories.
"Cui Cui, didn't you say that someone gave this to you?" Wu Hongcheng turned his head and asked.
A woman called Cuicui walked out. She looked to be about 25 or 26 years old. She smelled of cheap powder, which made Liang Huanxue take two steps back.
"Yes, they are planted in our fields, so they belong to us, right?" Cuicui said confidently.
Liang Yuanwang just laughed when he heard this, "Growing in your fields? How can you tell such a lie?"
"The fourth son of the Liang family, don't be angry. Maybe this is just a misunderstanding. If these seedlings belong to you, I will just return them to you." Wu Hongcheng didn't want to have a conflict with the Liang family.
The village was able to overcome the two difficulties this time thanks to the Liang family and Liang Huanxue who was standing in front of them.
"You can take it, but you have to apologize to me. After all, it was you who planted the seedlings in my field." Cuicui refused to give in and stopped Liang Huanxue who wanted to take the seedlings away.
"You stole our things and you want us to compensate you, right?" Liang Yuanwang was so angry that he laughed.
He had never heard such an unreasonable request.
"Let's be clear. You planted the seedlings in my field, so I naturally thought they were mine. So I took them back, and there was nothing wrong with that. Now you're asking me for them, which is unreasonable!"
Cuicui put her hands on her hips, and the smell of cheap powder on her body became stronger and stronger. Liang Huanxue could hardly breathe, and she took several steps back and returned to Liang Yuanwang's side.
"Huanxue, are you okay?" Liang Yuan saw that she looked uncomfortable and quickly picked her up.
"She smells so bad, it's a bit uncomfortable." Huan Xue wrinkled her nose and said aggrievedly.
Cuicui got angry when she heard this. "This is the best rouge, and it costs two cents a box. What do you know?"
"No matter what kind of rouge you used, you have to return the seedlings to us and compensate us." Liang Yuanwang originally didn't intend to argue with them so much.
But this woman is so unreasonable. There is no need to be polite to her.
"The fourth son of the Liang family, how about we go to the field and take a look?" Wu Hongcheng felt that Cuicui was so sure that maybe the Liang family really had made a mistake.
He didn't want to let Cuicui down, so he suggested going to the fields to take a look.
"Let's go. How could I not be familiar with the Liang family's land?" Liang Yuanwang was sure that they did not plant the seedlings in the wrong place.
Since Wu Hongcheng wants to go and see, then let him go and see. He has nothing to be afraid of.
They soon arrived at the vegetable field.
Liang Yuanwang pointed to the land where the vegetable seedlings were planted and said, "It's right here. Look, the holes on the ground are still fresh."
Wu Hongcheng walked over and saw that there were indeed a few small holes on the ground, just big enough to plant a few vegetable seedlings.
Although this place is only one meter away from his vegetable garden, it is indeed the Liang family's territory.
He turned around and was about to ask Cuicui to apologize when he heard Cuicui say, "How can you prove that this vegetable plot is yours?"
Liang Yuanwang was stunned when he heard this.
Since they arrived here, this vegetable field has been theirs.
It is recorded who owns each piece of land in the village, and no one can forcibly take away someone else's land.
"Wu Hongcheng, tell me, who owns this land?" Liang Yuanwang knew from Wu Hongcheng's expression just now that he clearly knew that the land belonged to the Liang family.
The problem would be solved if he just spoke out.
But who would have thought that Wu Hongcheng would hesitate at this moment.
Because he found that after the flood, the previous dividing line had disappeared.
Since the original dividing line has disappeared, does that mean that Liang Yuanwang has no evidence to prove that he is lying when he says the land is his?
When Liang Huanxue saw Wu Hongcheng's hesitation, she knew that he would most likely not tell the truth.
Even though he knew clearly in his heart that this was not his place at all, he still felt lucky.
What if I could somehow take this land into my own hands?
Sure enough, Liang Huanxue heard him say: "This...I'm not sure about this either."
Wu Hongcheng also knew that it would not be a good idea to say it now, so he only gave an ambiguous statement, wanting to see how Liang Yuanwang would respond.
"Not sure?" Liang Yuanwang didn't expect him to say that.
In his impression, Wu Hongcheng has always been an honest and decent person. Although he acts a little recklessly, he has never seen him tell lies.
I didn't expect to see it today.
"Then go find the village chief."
Although Wu Hongcheng acted recklessly, he was an honest man and he would not do such a thing.
Maybe it has something to do with the woman next to him?
She has only been with Wu Hongcheng for half a year, but she seems to have completely taken control of this person.
Liang Huanxue had heard Cuicui scold him more than once.
But he still obeyed Cuicui's orders.
The method is really advanced.
Liang Huanxue sighed in her heart, and when she looked up, she saw the village chief walking towards her on the path with his hands behind his back.
The village chief then went to Liu Erzhuang's house to see the two strangers and asked about their origins.
They said they were from Tagang Village and were friends of Liu Erzhuang. Liu Erzhuang had some business and would not be back for a few days, so they helped him clean up the house first.
