Chapter 299 Stealing Things
At night, the group returned to Beifeng Village, exhausted.
Yuan Xiao had several blisters on her feet, and she wanted to move when she walked.
Gu Lanting wanted to carry her on his back, but was rejected.
With so many people watching, she couldn't be coquettish.
She walked into the room, wishing she could lie paralyzed in bed, but because she hadn't taken a shower or changed clothes yet, she couldn't bear to lie paralyzed in bed.
Gu Lanting brought in a basin of water from outside, with a disinfectant band-aid in his hand.
Most importantly, there was a thin needle.
Yuan Xiao's feet were tightly clenched, "What are you doing!"
Gu Lanting forcefully took off her shoes and socks, "Breathing your feet."
Yuan Xiao's guard was no longer down, "Breathing your feet? Why are you holding a needle?"
Gu Lanting didn't answer, and put her two feet into the water to soak.
Yuan Xiao sighed comfortably, feeling that all her limbs were stretched out.
As soon as she relaxed, her head felt dizzy and she wanted to sleep.
Gu Lanting took out a lighter from his pocket and burned the tip of the needle.
"I'll pick the blister for you."
Yuan Xiao's feet shrank, "I don't want it, it will go away by itself!"
"It's taking so long to heal, and you have to go to other places tomorrow. Are you going to endure it? Now that it's picked, I'll apply some medicine on you, and you'll be almost healed tomorrow."
He has experience in dealing with this.
Yuan Xiao was whimpering and acting coquettishly, but Gu Lanting didn't buy it. He was determined to pick the blisters on her feet one by one. Yuan Xiao almost cried in pain.
Especially after applying the medicine, she felt like a cripple and didn't want to move at all.
After doing all this, she remembered that she hadn't taken a shower, "How can I take a shower now!"
Gu Lanting put her feet down, "Then don't wash, I don't mind."
Yuan Xiao shook her white feet, "No, I want to take a shower and change clothes, and I also want to wash my hair!"
In the end, Gu Lanting had to carry her to the bathroom, considerately avoiding the blisters on her feet, and gave her a comfortable bath.
When getting dressed, Yuan Xiao saw the furry pajamas in his hand, "Why this one? I want to wear another one."
Gu Lanting put it on her, worried that she would catch a cold.
"The other one is still hanging out."
Yuan Xiao pouted, "What? I brought three sets."
"Look for it later. I only saw this one."
Yuan Xiao returned to the room and immediately went to look for clothes in the suitcase.
But just as Gu Lanting said, the other one was not seen.
If she remembered the pajamas wrong, she also lost a sweater and a small jacket, so it couldn't be a mistake!
"Are you sure it's gone?" Gu Lanting frowned.
Yuan Xiao nodded, and touched his empty wrist with a stern face.
Maybe he got the sweetness of the watch and felt that she didn't care about these things?
Fortunately, she brought the money with her, otherwise it would have been stolen.
Gu Lanting touched her head and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."
Yuan Xiao felt a little uncomfortable.
If someone asked her for it, she might spend money to buy it for them.
But when she thought that her things had been rummaged through and the clothes she was wearing had been touched, she felt discouraged.
Gu Lanting stuffed Yuan Xiao into the quilt and went out to take a shower. When he
came back from the shower, he saw Yuan Xiao in the quilt, with a little head showing, looking very well-behaved.
But when he got on the bed and touched her warm skin, he realized that she had taken off her pajamas.
Gu Lanting frowned, "Why did you take off your clothes? You'll catch a cold."
Yuan Xiao rubbed against his arms, "I don't like it. I'm going to wash my clothes tomorrow."
Gu Lanting knew she was coquettish, so he didn't say she was hypocritical.
The girl was lying naked in his arms, and he was not Liu Xiahui, so he naturally had to do something.
...
Yuan Xiao got up the next day and put on the clothes that had been dried before. Gu Lanting took all the clothes in her suitcase out to wash.
Not long after breakfast, Shuanzi came.
"Today we have fewer places to go than yesterday, and the road is easier to walk."
He was so happy that he got ten yuan for leading Yuan Xiao yesterday.
Yuan Xiao rolled her eyes at him. She didn't believe what he said about "the road is easy to walk".
He said this sentence too many times yesterday. Obviously, they have different definitions of "easy to walk".
According to the itinerary set by Shuanzi, even if they had to go to fewer places today than yesterday, they would not return until the afternoon.
But around noon, Yuanxiao started to complain about being tired and insisted on returning.
Shuanzi had no choice but to take them back to Beifeng Village.
As soon as Yuanxiao entered the village, she went straight to her room.
She didn't know if the people from yesterday would come back to rummage today, so she just tried her luck anyway.
But before she entered the room, she heard rustling sounds inside.
Gu Lanting protected Yuanxiao behind him and kicked the door open.
A scream came from inside, and he was almost scared to death.
Yuanxiao poked his head out from behind him. It was the fat woman who was next to Shuanzi a few days ago.
Xu Zhicheng knew her, and said to Yuan Xiao, "Shuanzi's wife, Yang Lihua."
Yuan Xiao sarcastically said, "Sister-in-law, did you find anything good?"
She was not being mean, Shuanzi took them out, and Yang Lihua came to steal things, so she naturally thought that Shuanzi and Yang Lihua were colluding with each other.
Yang Lihua was completely stiff, and her brain turned several circles, trying to find excuses for herself: "I, I came to clean up your things."
Yuan Xiao looked at the mess on the ground, "This, is also cleaning up things?"
Yang Lihua quickly picked up the things on the ground, patted them, and said embarrassedly: "I accidentally dropped it."
Yuan Xiao pointed to his wrist, looked at her and said: "The watch is nice."
Yang Lihua thought it was not good.
She saw this watch in the bathroom.
In the whole Beifeng Village, no one else had it except Yuan Xiao. She was greedy for it and put it away.
But she didn't dare to take it out. She only dared to wear it to show off when Yuan Xiao and the others went out.
Now she was caught, don't mention how embarrassing it was.
She pulled her sleeves to cover her watch, "I, I picked it up."
"You really don't have the good moral character of returning lost property here. My watch is not very expensive, just over a hundred yuan. Do you know what kind of punishment you will receive for something worth more than a hundred yuan if I report it to the police today?"
Xu Zhicheng continued Yuan Xiao's words: "Going to jail is inevitable. In Beifeng Village, you can't earn even a watch in a whole year, right?"
Yang Lihua shuddered, and suddenly felt that the thing on her wrist was a little hot.
She took off her watch in a hurry and put it on the table. "I, I really picked it up! If I had known it was yours, I would have returned it! I didn't steal it, really not!"
Yuan Xiao didn't even look at the watch, and asked coldly: "What about today? It wasn't stolen either? It wasn't enough that you came once yesterday, and you dared to come a second time today? It's only because Shuanzi is your husband that you can easily grasp our movements and know when we go out and when we come back."
