When we were drinking that night, there were only 9 helpers, and one helper named Hu Chuanxin was out for something and did not rush back to the wine shop for dinner. Everyone waited for a while, but without waiting any longer, they all waved their chopsticks and sticks of guessing to order the wine to win.
Wu Renyi's wife Hong Qiaoyun was drinking with her at the dinner table, and she drank relatively little. After she cleaned up the messy dining table, she took the two bottles of unfinished wine back to the wine storage room. Ke walked to the door holding a candle, and opened the door with her key. When she locked the door, she found that the door was open, and then she saw that the door catch of the hanging lock was twisted off. She knew something was wrong. When she walked into the wine storage room, she saw that dozens of bottles of wine were gone.
She shouted - the wine was stolen and there was a robber in the wine shop. But the people in the wine shop were all in a dazed state of drunkenness. At this time, no matter how she called, they would not care. Hong Qiaoyun walked around the wine storage room and came out to approach her husband who was sleeping in another room. When she saw him snoring, she pinched his nose. . No matter how much Hong Qiaoyun yelled that the wine was stolen, he would not reply. Occasionally, he would say nonsense like "I'm not drunk, let's have another drink."
Hong Qiaoyun was anxious. She quickly rushed to the house at the east end of the winery and knocked on the door of the Zhang family's room where the light was on. Uncle Zhang with a beard came out and listened to her talk about the theft of the winery, and he cursed: "It's such a shame." The robbers are really powerful.
So he went to the entrance of the village and shouted about it. About twenty people, men, women, old and young, came out of the village. They all followed Hong Qiaoyun to the wine shop to see the scene of the theft. They didn't take a serious look at how many bottles of wine were stolen, but only looked at the door lock. It was indeed twisted. There was nothing else to talk about. They kept talking about how bad the wine thieves were and how every household should take precautions. The gossip didn't stop for a long time.
That time, Baidelai was discovered and failed to steal the fish in the fish pond. He was very frustrated. He walked through the forest and returned to the adobe house where Liu Yuzhen lived alone on the other side of the mountain. It was already late at night. , he also brought back a fish, which filled the house with a fishy smell. Seeing this, Liu Yuzhen asked him why he came back so late with the fish and where he got it.
Got it from outside. Bai Delai didn't give the specific address and answered vaguely. Liu Yuzhen stopped asking, and Bai Delai went to cook on his own. It was already 5 o'clock in the morning after midnight snack, and he fell asleep after that.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, the gentleman sent someone to bring rice and other things. The person who came was a young man. He smelled a fishy smell and saw the fish trap placed in the corner of the wall. He remembered a surprising story that had been spread in the village early in the morning. News: The fish pond of Sima Fu family was poisoned with fishicide last night. The fish in the fish pond turned their bellies upside down and many of them were poisoned to death.
In this way, he told Liu Yuzhen about it by the way. Liu Yuzhen frowned and said, damn the fish thieves, why don't the fish thieves drown? He immediately thought of Bai Delai who brought back a fish last night. He behaved badly. Is he a suspect of stealing fish? As soon as the younger generation left, she walked into another adobe room and woke up Bai Delai who was sleeping.
In fact, Bai Delai had woken up early because he had a guilty conscience. He had just slept for a while at dawn and couldn't fall asleep. He paid attention to the movements outside and was worried that someone would come to question him. After all, he was not caught. He was planning what kind of method he should use. Lies can be passed on without leakage.
But this is his self-feeling, and his behavior has aroused Liu Yuzhen's suspicion. Liu Yuzhen said: I asked you last night where you got that fish, but you didn't answer me. Can you tell me today?
able! I fished it from a wild lake, any questions? Bai Delai stood up and said calmly.
Liu Yuzhen knew that she couldn't ask, so she said bluntly: Last night, fishicide was added to Sima Fu's fish pond, which poisoned all the fish in the pond. This is illegal. I'm worried that you were involved. Did you participate? ?
No! No! I have no idea. Bai De said and kept waving his hands.
So which wild lake did you catch a fish in last night? Liu Yuzhen wants to break the casserole pattern (question) to the end.
There are so many wild lakes. I’m telling you, but you don’t know. You rarely go out at your age, so don’t mind such nosy things! Bai Delai instead taught Liu Yuzhen a lesson.
As a foreigner staying here, you must abide by the rules, otherwise, if something happens, you will get in trouble with me. Liu Yuzhen raised her voice and said.
Nothing happened, I behaved myself very well. Bai Delai lay down again.
Liu Yuzhen said that would be good. Then he walked out of the adobe house and glanced at the fish trap in the corner of the wall. There was still an unsolved mystery in his heart.
In the past few days, Bai Delai had repeatedly failed in stealing items, and his heart was filled with a sense of loss. That evening, Bai Delai walked into Xinghua Village by accident. In an area half surrounded by fields and surrounded by mountains, there was a row of houses shrouded in twilight. He suddenly smelled the aroma of wine floating in the air. In fact, it was the Xinghua Village Winery.
He approached the wine shop along a gray road and saw a group of men drinking wine inside. There was also a woman looking after them, and all of them were drunk until they were red-faced. Bai Delai smacked his lips and wanted to rush over to have a drink. But he felt that he was a stranger, so how could the men tolerate him if he just went there and mixed in? If you don't do it well, you'll get a beating.
In his hometown in Zhejiang, he had a habit of stealing and was beaten many times if he was caught. Therefore, he always felt frightened when approaching upright men.
With a pair of rat eyes, he already had other plans. He tiptoed into the other rooms of the winery without lights. There was nothing valuable inside, just some spare tools for winemaking. Some were heavy, some were light, but Stealing these would have no effect, and he didn't make wine. If he stole them and sold them, he would be exposed as a thief if people questioned him. He simply refused, and went around to the door of another room, pushing the door but not opening it. As soon as I touched the hanging lock. Generally speaking, the more locked the door is, the more tempting it is to thieves. Bai Delai was tempted and took out a pair of pliers from his bulging waist bag.
When he goes out to do errands, he always brings this kind of tool with him, such as prying open doors and twisting locks. He was very agile in doing this kind of thing. He only used pliers to clamp the hanging lock and twisted it hard to break the buckle. Then he stretched out his hand to hold up the door leaf so that the rotating door shaft would not make any noise, and then he went in.
The strong smell of alcohol made him secretly happy. He touched many wine bottles with his hands, there were about dozens of them. He went back and forth in twos and threes, and in less than a few minutes, he turned all the heavy wine bottles out of the door. He found a rope and cut it into two pieces, tied the wine bottles into two places, and found a wooden stick as a shoulder pole, put it on his shoulder, and carried it on tiptoe; the night became dark. Under his cover, no one noticed him when he walked out of Xinghua Village. Because there was no moonlight that night, even the starlight was blocked by the clouds in the sky. There was only some gray luster to set off his gloomy thoughts, and he hurriedly walked towards the brightly lit streets in the distance.
It was a night market, and Bai Delai was walking around carrying so many wine bottles. He was looking at it carefully, and he went to whichever hotel was busy. The restaurant in front was full of lights, figures, and shouts, making it very lively. A green soft satin flag was also picked out from the cornice of the restaurant, with four large yellow characters on it: Jiangnan Restaurant. Because the four lanterns hanging on the restaurant were also marked with these four eye-catching characters, they radiated brilliant red light, so they could be seen very clearly.
