Su Ruyi didn't stay in the field for long. After chatting with her mother-in-law and two sisters-in-law, she went back again.
The villagers curled their lips, accustomed to Su Ruyi's delicious food and lazy cooking.
Su Ruyi walked to the end of Luo's house and suddenly shouted loudly: "Isn't this the chicken that our family lost!"
While shouting, he rushed into Luo's house.
chicken?
The Luo family looked around and saw that the wheat ears in their field were shaking, as if something hot was running underneath.
The Luo family's daughter-in-law threw away the tools in her hands, rushed over in one stride, and caught the chickens running around in the ground before Su Ruyi could.
"Dad, Mom! What a big hen!"
The Luo family's daughter-in-law excitedly raised the hen to show to the rest of the family.
"Give it to me! This is our hen, the one we lost yesterday!"
Su Ruyi reached out to grab it, but the woman dodged it.
"Dad, Mom, I caught this chicken first!"
Knowing that she was no match for Su Ruyi, the Luo family's daughter-in-law hurriedly ran towards her family. The rest of the Luo family also gathered around and stopped Su Ruyi.
"What are you doing?! You trampled all our wheat to death, will you pay for it?"
Mother-in-law of the Luo family stood forward. The chickens in her field must not be taken away.
Su Ruyi: "That's our chicken. You don't know that our chicken is lost. Give it back to me!"
"You said what belongs to your family belongs to your family? This is my Luo family's field, and anything that runs on our land belongs to our family! If you don't take good care of your own chickens, they deserve it if they run away!"
"You're not going to give this chicken back to me, are you?"
Su Ruyi's tone was cold.
The Luo family is not afraid at this time. They have a large family. Even if two grown men are arrested, there are still three grown men in the family. What does the Lu family have?
The mother-in-law of the Luo family laughed: "Who said this belongs to your family? Even if it belongs to your family, if it runs out, it is wild. Whoever catches it first will get it!"
Even though they were far apart, the surrounding villagers craned their necks and looked over with interest.
As they were talking here, the Lu family's side also became lively.
"Hey, we have a chicken at home too!"
Mrs. Zhang shouted, and everyone hurriedly looked over and saw that Mrs. Zhang was indeed holding a hen and raising it high.
Su Ruyi looked over there: "It seems that this paper does not belong to our family."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The other villagers couldn't stand. Why are there so many chickens? Don’t you have some in your own land?
Everyone stood on tiptoe and looked around in their fields, hoping to see some wheat shaking somewhere, but there was nothing.
Someone slapped his thigh and said, "No, I'll go back and have a look. Isn't my chicken running away?"
There are people going back from every household.
Su Ruyi took the hen from her mother-in-law. It was a good hen and fatter than her own.
Liu Cuier and Li Baozhu gathered around nervously.
"What should we do now? Let me tell you, we can just hide the chicken secretly. Why do we have to do this?"
Liu Cuier said that she was still afraid of the Luo family. There was a man in the family and she couldn't afford to offend them.
Su Ruyi looked back and saw that the third son of the Luo family was walking back with the chicken, while the others continued working in the fields.
Su Ruyi said loudly: "Mom, I picked up a chicken for nothing today, why are you still doing any work? Let's go and rest for a long time!"
Mrs. Zhang was stunned, but she started shouting: "Have a rest, you don't want the crops in the field?"
Su Ruyi held her arm and walked back: "Go back!"
He turned to the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law behind him and said, "Come back and take the children with you!"
Seeing Su Ruyi's serious expression, the two of them did not dare to say anything more, and each of them hurriedly pulled a child and followed her back.
Mrs. Zhang clicked her tongue and said, "Su Ruyi, is this going to cause a problem?"
"Mom, don't worry, I'm here!"
Zhang: "..."
Earlier, Su Ruyi said that she had stolen two chickens from the Luo family, and she didn't feel particularly good about it. Even though she was very confident when she scolded her, she never mentioned the Luo family by name. When the two families were in conflict, she There is no advantage at all on this side.
The family returned home in a panic, carrying their tools. Before they even put down their hoe, someone knocked on the door, making a loud, urgent sound.
Su Ruyi: "Who is it?"
The courtyard door was pushed open, and it was the third son of the Luo family who brought back the chicken.
"The chicken you picked up belongs to me, give it back to me!"
Su Ruyi said lazily: "From your family? Did you know it was from your family?"
"One of my chickens is missing, no, two are missing. Plus, the chicken I brought back is exactly the same as the chicken you picked up. The ones you have are just ours!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't your mother tell you that? Whoever runs around in the field belongs to that family, and whoever catches it first belongs to that family! Besides, our family also lost a hen two days ago. This must be mine. !”
"Impossible, that chicken of yours——"
"What happened to my chicken?"
Luo Laosan bulged his eyes, glared at Su Ruyi angrily, then suddenly turned around and left.
"Is he leaving now?"
Liu Cuier said.
Mrs. Zhang rolled her eyes at her: "How can it be so easy? I'll probably go back and call for help!"
After a few people drank a bowl of water, they heard a group of footsteps outside the yard, followed closely by the loud voice of the old woman of the Luo family.
"People named Lu, come out here! Did you steal my chickens?"
All the Luo family, big and small, crowded to the entrance of Lu Family Courtyard. Su Ruyi stood in the middle of the door and refused to let them enter the courtyard.
Su Ruyi: "What do you want to do?"
"Su Ruyi, stop pretending, isn't it you who did it? It was you who came to our house and stole the chicken!"
The two families stood opposite each other, and the gap between them could be seen immediately.
There are so many Luo family members, the old man and the old woman are very energetic, there are three daughters-in-law, two adult sons, and a group of half-grown children.
The Lu family is much inferior, with only four women and four children.
Therefore, the old woman of the Luo family was not afraid at all. She stood at the front like a fried hen, with her hands on her hips, as if she would not go back until she got the result.
There were some villagers who followed and continued to watch the fun. They went back to look at their chicken pens, and there were many.
It seems that this is another conflict between the Lu family and the Luo family.
Su Ruyi chuckled, folding her arms in front of her chest: "Our family also lost a chicken, why do you say it belongs to your family? I also said that your family stole one of our chickens last year, and stole another one this year. After selling it for money, you gave us two chickens as compensation!"
"you--"
"What's wrong with me, aunt, you said it yourself, whoever catches the chicken belongs to whoever catches it. Anyway, my mother caught the chicken, so it belongs to our family!"
Mrs. Luo was so angry that she really shot herself in the foot. She said harshly: "It won't work anyway. What's ours belongs to ours, and we have to take it back!"
After saying that, he winked at his two sons.
