Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 361 Something strange

“It doesn’t matter whether he is from our village or another village, if we catch him, we won’t make it easy for him!”

“Well, if you are from our village, you should be punished more severely. If you steal everything from your own village, how dark will you feel?”

　　　…”

Bai Kangyuan didn't interrupt. He just waited for the people below to finish discussing the thief and vent his anger. Then he said loudly, "At this moment, there is no response, and some people have evil thoughts. Let's not worry about it." People from this village or from other villages have kept their eyes open these past two days to see who is acting suspiciously. Someone in our village has had their food stolen, so we can’t just let it go.”

"If anyone sees something wrong with someone, please come to me and tell me. If we can really find this thief, we will reward the person who provides evidence with ten kilograms of good rice. If we can catch this thief, we will reward him additionally." Twenty pounds!”

"In addition, for the sake of the stability of our village and to prevent some thieves from harming our village, from now on, according to the previous rules, each family has a male, two of them every night, patrolling back and forth in the village, so as not to Even if someone thinks it’s dark under the light and comes back to steal from someone else’s house, this will prevent the thief from getting bolder and stealing more and more.”

As soon as Bai Kangyuan said this, the villagers all agreed.

 After all, he is a thief. If you steal something, but I don’t, it will be stolen back to your own family. That’s not worth it.

Anyway, if these two families take turns to line up for one night, it will only be once a month for each family, so it is not a hassle.

Seeing this, Bai Kangyuan was quite pleased with the villagers' general understanding, and continued, "Since everyone agrees, let's start tonight. According to the old rules, we will start from the east end of the village. Then come and find me to lead." I put on candles and lanterns at night and rested in the ancestral hall for half an hour. "

“What’s more, even in our village, there are no boys in Bai Shitang’s family, and Bai Mi Dou is a little kid, so she can’t be of much use. When it’s her turn, I can just go for her family.”

This patrol lasts for many years. If we were separated, no one would say anything this time or twice. After a long time, even if we don't say it on the face, we will mutter a few words in our hearts.

 Bai Kangyuan might as well work hard himself and take the lead in this matter. He is upright and it is natural for him to help the villagers below. Others can't say anything.

When others saw what Bai Kangyuan said, of course they had no objections and all agreed.

After the matter was settled, Bai Kangyuan asked everyone to disperse. He walked home with his hands behind his back, while looking at the expressions of everyone in the village at this time.

 After looking at it for a long time, I felt that everything was normal and there were no suspicious people or actions.

Bai Kangyuan guessed that the thief was most likely from another village.

Of course, he is also willing to believe that he is from another village.

 When I got home, I saw Mrs. Zheng packing things.

"What are you going to do?" Bai Kangyuan was a little surprised.

Zheng did not respond immediately, but asked, "Master, do you think this thief came here a little strangely?"

"What's weird?" Bai Kangyuan scratched his head, "It's not weird, right? Although there are many thieves during the New Year, it's to celebrate the New Year, but this is not a good job. Unless it is absolutely necessary, generally you will not take this wrong path, and It’s at this time when the situation is so rough that some people have evil thoughts.”

“I’m not saying that this thief stole something strange, but why did this thief leave the whole Baijia Village alone and go to Baishitang’s house instead?”
