When Cheng Jingmo and the others arrived outside the orchard, it was already dark.
"Are you sure this is here?" he asked Xiaojie.
It was so dark that Xiaojie was not sure, "It should be so."
Cheng Jingmo got out of the car first, then put a raincoat on Yu Xiangnian, and gave Xiaojie an umbrella.
The rain had weakened a lot at this time. He was holding a flashlight with one hand and supporting Yu Xiangnian with the other. Xiaojie was walking on the other side of him.
The three of them walked a short distance away and saw two bicycles lying in the grass.
Cheng Jingmo checked and found that they were the car at home and the one owned by Yu Xiangyang.
This is it, that’s right!
Cheng Jingmo led the two of them across the bamboo fence and walked forward. After walking about fifty meters, they saw a small house with bright light.
The three of them quickened their pace and arrived at the door of the hut.
Four men were sitting in a small room of more than 40 square meters.
Yu Xiangyang and Lin Ye were squatting on the ground soaked to the skin. Yu Xiangyang's hands were still tied with ropes.
Cheng Jingmo felt a little more relaxed.
Yu Xiangyang was tied up obediently and did not resist, so it was not too wrong!
It shouldn't be a big problem to intercede with these fellow villagers and compensate them.
Yu Xiangyang was the first to see the person at the door. His eyes lit up, "Cheng Jingmo, you are finally here."
He knew Cheng Jingmo would come to find him!
Cheng Jingmo really couldn't look at him!
A soldier did this scandalous thing of climbing a tree to steal mangoes and was caught!
Cheng Jingmo knocked on the open door and said, "fellow fellows, please excuse me."
Several men had already seen Cheng Jingmo when Yu Xiangyang shouted.
A man stood up and walked to the door, "What are you?"
Cheng Jingmo said: "I am a family member of these two people, and I would like to ask, what happened?"
The man glanced at Yu Xiangyang and Lin Ye and said, "They stole fruits from the orchard. When the rain clears, we will send them to the Public Security Bureau!"
Cheng Jingmo lied shamelessly, "Fellow, they didn't steal the fruit on purpose, it was because of my wife..."
He pulled Yu Xiangnian in front of him, "This is my wife. She is pregnant with the baby, but the doctor said that the baby is a little small and asked us to supplement nutrition. That person is her brother and that person is my sister. They heard that the baby is a little small. Eating fruits is very nourishing for the fetus, so I just wanted to pick some fruits back and give them to my wife."
Cheng Jingmo added: "Fellow, do you think this will work? We will compensate them according to the price for how much fruit they picked. I will take good care of them when I go home and make them promise never to pick fruit again!"
Cheng Jingmo apologized very well, and Xiang Nian was standing at the door with a big belly. The fellow was not indifferent.
He turned sideways to make way for a seat, "It's raining outside, you guys should come in first."
After Cheng Jingmo and the others entered the house, there was no place to turn around in the already crowded hut.
Yu Xiangnian pretended to be pitiful and begged for mercy from several fellow villagers. The fellow villagers said in a very embarrassed manner: "It's not that we are unkind, the main reason is that they are already accustomed to stealing. They have stolen all the fruits outside the orchard!"
Regarding this issue, Yu Xiangyang has been explaining it for a long time just now, and his lips are blistering, but the fellow villagers just don't believe him.
I have to insist that those fruits were stolen by them!
Cheng Jingmo asked the fellow villager in detail about the past few times the fruit had been stolen.
I don’t know who they are, but some fruits are stolen every few days.
Cheng Jingmo said: "Fellow, do you think this is okay? We will help you catch these fruit thieves, and you let them go?"
Cheng Jingmo assured again, "They really didn't steal the fruit the past few times. They were at home every day and never came out!"
When the fellow villager heard that he wanted to help them catch the fruit thief, he was shaken.
They had been guarding the place for several days before catching these two men.
If Cheng Jingmo helps them catch the thief, they won't have to worry about the fruit being stolen in the future.
The fellow asked: "Do these things you say count? How can we believe you?"
Cheng Jingmo said: "Starting from tomorrow, we will patrol at night. As long as the fruit thief shows up, we will definitely catch them!"
In order to make sure that Cheng Jingmo meant what he said, the fellow said: "You are reliable to us, so let us believe you for once! These two people will stay here for now. When you catch the thief, we will let them go!"
Cheng Jingmo: "..."
He understood that if he didn't come up with something that convinced the fellow villagers tonight, he wouldn't be able to take Yu Xiangyang and Lin Ye away.
He thought for a while, took out his military ID card from his coat pocket and handed it to the fellow villager.
"Fellow, I am a soldier in the military region. I promise you that I will catch the thief from tomorrow night until I catch the person! Today, you ask me to take these two people back first and educate them well."
The fellow looked at his military ID card and then at Cheng Jingmo. He checked for a while to make sure it was the same person.
The fellow looked at Yu Xiangyang with his hands tied again and asked in disbelief: "He is also a soldier?"
Cheng Jingmo: "...No. He is my wife's family and came from out of town to see my wife."
The fellow naturally believed in soldiers, so he returned his military ID card to Cheng Jingmo.
"It turns out they are soldiers of the People's Liberation Army, then we believe you! Just take them back first!"
"Thank you, fellow man! Thank you, fellow man!" Cheng Jingmo said his thanks repeatedly.
Another fellow untied the rope tied to Yu Xiangyang's hands.
After Cheng Jingmo and the others expressed their thanks again, they left the cabin with Yu Xiangyang and Lin Ye.
"Yu Xiangyang, are you embarrassed?!" Not far away, Yu Xiangnian cursed in a low voice.
Yu Xiangyang knew that he was in the wrong, so he followed them without saying anything.
"And you, Lin Ye!" Yu Xiangnian said, "You have received higher education! When you are with Yu Xiangyang, can't you do something normal people do?!"
"If we hadn't arrived today, you would have been handed over to the Public Security Bureau! Then it would not only be embarrassing for you, but also for the army and the school!"
The two of them lowered their heads and did not dare to refute Yu Xiangnian, until they walked outside the orchard.
The two of them each picked up a bicycle and rode in front, with Cheng Jingmo driving behind.
Back home, Lin also took a hot bath and changed clothes.
Yu Xiangnian said to her seriously, "Lin Ye, I spoke in a harsh tone in the orchard just now. I apologize to you."
Lin Ye said indifferently: "I don't take it to heart!"
Yu Xiangnian said: "Lin Ye, I support you chasing Yu Xiangyang, but you can't do stupid things with him! If the army finds out about this, he will be punished one by one, and my dad will definitely break his legs! "
Lin also nodded, "We will never do this again! But, sister-in-law, you know, I was moved by Yu Xiangyang today!"
Yu Xiangnian:?
"He could have run away by himself, but he didn't! I accidentally fell from the tree, and he was caught trying to save me. After we were caught, he said that he would bear the responsibility alone, and I It’s irrelevant!”
"Please wake up, okay?!" Yu Xiangnian poked Lin Ye's forehead with his fingertips, "He is a man, so he should take responsibility! Also, this is a bad thing, not an honorable thing. You Stop being so complacent!”
