Just when Li Zheng's family was worried about the four chickens, people from the village came over one after another to join in the fun. There were even good people who were holding rice bowls, tiptoeing, and looking at Li Zheng's house. .
Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is the Li Zheng family, it’s really lively, the guys are forming gangs, they’re all here.
Even Niu Caohua took the well-fed Niu Xiaodi and squatted behind a haystack near Li Zheng's house to secretly join in the fun.
Hee hee hee......
"Bang~" The courtyard door of Li Zheng's house opened, and Li Zheng walked out with a dark face.
"Have any of you seen my chickens?" He glanced at the surrounding villagers with his eyes, and he couldn't hide the suspicion in his eyes.
Chickens will not disappear for no reason. Even if a wild beast comes, it will make a noise in the yard. Also, there are so many chickens in the village, why do wild beasts only come from home? My house is neither at the entrance nor at the end of the village. There are several families around it, so why are their houses okay?
Someone must have come to steal the chicken!
I just don’t know who is so bold as to steal a chicken from home, fearing that his life will be too long.
"No."
"None of us have seen it. Li Zheng, your chicken was eaten by some wild beast, right?"
"That's right, or it ran away on its own at night, and we didn't steal it."
"..."
The onlookers were afraid that the fire would burn them, so they quickly retreated to a distance.
They couldn't steal it even if they wanted to.
"His second aunt, didn't you say you saw a lot of chicken feathers on the way here? Could it be that they were lost by Li Zheng's family?" A fair-skinned woman in the crowd suddenly said, holding a bowl.
As soon as she said these words, everyone's attention immediately focused on the second aunt.
"Ms. Lin, tell me, what's going on?" Li Zheng also threw the question away.
This Mr. Lin has a thin build, his clothes are patched in many places, and his face has deep nasolabial folds. He is not easy to mess with at first glance.
When she saw that everyone was paying attention to her, she shrank a little at first, but then her eyes rolled, she raised her head and raised her chest again, her voice sharp: "Isn't that right, Li Zheng, I just wanted to tell you, when I went out to pour the chamber pot in the morning, I saw a lot of chicken feathers on the ground, and I was thinking about who was eating chicken during the New Year or the festival."
"Where did you see it?" Li Zheng just wanted to know the result now, not the process. He impatiently interrupted Lin.
"It's Mrs. Bai's house next door, at the foot of her wall. I saw it in the morning." Mrs. Lin shrank her neck and whispered.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Mr. Lin as if they were gossip.
Although your house and Mrs. Bai's house are next door, at least they are separated by a few roads. How did you get up early in the morning and pour the chamber pot at the foot of the other house's wall?
The toilet is not there.
"Mr. Bai! Let's go!" Li Zheng had already taken the lead and turned towards Mrs. Bai's house.
Grandma Chen followed aggressively, and her two sons and a group of villagers also followed immediately.
What are Niu Qianshan and his family doing?
Of course you are killing the chicken!
Mrs. Bai opened the door early in the morning and saw four chickens lying in the yard. She was so happy that she almost jumped up. She clasped her hands and bowed in all directions to thank the Bodhisattva ancestors.
Then he picked up the chicken and sharpened his knife.
When Niu Qianshan and Qian got up, they saw my mother killing chickens in the kitchen. There was more than one chicken, and their eyes almost popped out.
"Mom, where did you get this chicken?" There is only one chicken at home, and this chicken is not like a pheasant, and it is impossible for his mother to buy a chicken with money.
"I just opened the door..."
Mrs. Bai was about to speak when she heard Granny Chen's scream.
Niu Qianshan and his wife also heard it, and they looked at Granny Bai with frightened eyes.
His mother-in-law actually stole Li Zheng’s chicken?
Mrs. Bai: What? Is this Li Zheng’s chicken?
"Quickly, put away the chickens and don't let them see it. Mrs. Qian, clean up the kitchen too. Don't leave even a single feather on the chickens."
Mrs. Bai was so panicked now that she didn't even bother to pluck out half of the chicken feathers, and started working in a hurry.
When Li was knocking on the door of Mrs. Bai's house with a group of people, he saw Mrs. Bai cleaning the yard and Niu Qianshan and his wife cooking breakfast in the kitchen. They didn't look unusual at all.
"Mr. Bai, give me back my chickens!" Grandma Chen held up the chicken feathers in her hand, her face turned black, she was obviously very angry: "What happened to our family? You want to kill all my chickens. I have a big rooster, three An old hen that was laying eggs was served in a pot by you. Our two dogs treat your baby so well on weekdays. We don’t forget to share some of the food with him, but you are so kind that you even took revenge on us in the middle of the night. You These people who kill a thousand swords, why don't God chop you to death?"
With that said, he rushed towards Granny Bai.
As for whether Grandma Bai stole the chicken?
Needless to say, Grandma Chen knew every one of the pile of chicken feathers in the corner.
Grandma Bai was already feeling guilty. Just when she was about to open her mouth to refute, she was slapped in the face. She suddenly became angry and the two started fighting.
Li Zheng looked at Niu Qianshan: "Where are my chickens?"
There doesn't seem to be anything unusual about this family, but who is this person? Can you tell if they have a guilty conscience?
On weekdays, Ms. Bai attaches great importance to the kitchen. She handles three meals a day herself and does not let her son and daughter-in-law take advantage of her. Today, she is cleaning the yard while Mr. Qian is busy in the kitchen. Something is wrong at first sight.
So there must be something wrong with them.
"What kind of chicken? We don't know. Li Zheng, you brought people to my place early in the morning and beat my mother. What do you mean?" Niu Qianshan wanted to step forward and pull Granny Chen away from his mother, but As soon as he moved his feet, the two sons of the Li Zheng family immediately started moving.
He couldn't beat them one on two, and the Ushiyama Leopard and Ushiyama Horse were so strong that he couldn't beat them one on one.
The foot that had just stepped out was taken back again.
"Even if you are catching a thief, you have to take out the stolen goods, otherwise it will be a false accusation." Niu Qianshan suddenly became bolder when he thought that the four chickens were hidden so well that no one would find them.
"Li Zheng, our Bao'er and your two dogs have always had a good relationship, and our two families are also close. I dare to swear that this matter was definitely not done by our family. Someone must have been jealous because of our good relationship, so they stole You must not fall into the trap of putting the blame on us. If you don't believe it, come to my house and have a look."
Niu Qianshan's face was sincere, and what he said seemed to make sense, so the onlookers became commotion.
"Yes, Sister Chen, Qianshan of my family has said that this matter was definitely not done by us, someone must have framed us." The skinny Granny Bai is no match for Granny Chen. There is a huge difference in stature between the two. A large piece of grandma's hair was pulled out, and there were many scratches on her face. She grimaced in pain and cursed inwardly, but she still spoke nicely.
