Chapter 1446: The Liu Family Was Stolen
Evening
Liu Guangtian returned to the courtyard with low spirits. As soon as he got home, he saw the Second Aunt rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the room.
Liu Guangtian asked listlessly: "Mom, what are you looking for?"
The Second Aunt said anxiously: "Hi! It's strange! Didn't your dad bring back a few meat tickets two days ago? I clearly remember putting them in the cupboard. I originally planned to buy half a catty of meat, but no matter how I look, I can't find them. Since you are back, hurry and help Mom look. That's a total of ten catties of meat tickets."
Liu Guangtian: "Where is Dad? Did you ask Dad if he saw them?"
The Second Aunt: "I asked, your dad said he didn't see them. He is busy with work all day and can't get home, how could he care about those few meat tickets? Instead, it's you, did you move those meat tickets?"
Liu Guangtian: "I go to work every day, either eating at home or eating at the factory. Why would I take your meat tickets? Besides, you have been at home all the time, even if I wanted to take them, I would have to be able to. Mom, when did you find the meat tickets missing? Have you gone out these past few days? Don't tell me they were stolen?"
The Second Aunt was startled and patted her thigh anxiously: "Hey! You reminded me! I saw these meat tickets yesterday afternoon, and when I looked for them this afternoon, they were gone. I happened to go out to get a haircut this morning. There was no one at home during that time, it's very likely a thief entered our house then."
Liu Guangtian said: "Mom, go ask in the courtyard to see if any outsiders came to the courtyard this morning. If no outsiders came, then the thief is from our courtyard."
The Second Aunt slapped the cupboard and walked out angrily: "I'll go ask right now. Don't let me catch that thief. If I catch him, I'll peel his skin."
Watching the Second Aunt leave the room, Liu Guangtian sighed and sat on the chair, poured a cup of white boiled water, and grabbed the cup with empty eyes. That beautiful shadow always appeared in his mind.
Love is really hurtful!
The Second Aunt asked everyone in the courtyard. The uncles and aunts who were at home for a long time all said they didn't see any outsiders come to the courtyard, which made the Second Uncle's anger rise, and his eyes drifted involuntarily toward the Jia family.
The residents in the courtyard were all old neighbors. Everyone knew each other well enough. Everyone knew what was going on in whose family and what kind of person everyone was.
Now that something was lost in the courtyard, the first suspect was Banggeng. Who made Banggeng a habitual thief?
The Second Aunt returned home angrily: "Guangtian, I asked around, no outsiders came to our courtyard today. I suspect the meat tickets at home were stolen by Banggeng."
Liu Guangtian put down the water cup: "It's eight or nine out of ten that it was that kid."
The Second Aunt grabbed Liu Guangtian's arm and said gritting her teeth: "Let's go, let's go to the Jia family, catch that kid Banggeng. He even dares to steal from our house, he's turned the sky upside down. Look at me fixing him."
Liu Guangtian: "Mom, we don't have evidence. Even if we catch Banggeng, that kid won't admit it. That kid is slippery."
The Second Aunt said angrily: "Then just forget it? No way! I can't stand this anger. Let's go to the Jia family and turn it upside down, we must be able to find those meat tickets."
Liu Guangtian sneered: "Forget it, Banggeng is no longer a seven or eight-year-old child. Now that kid is already in junior high school, he's cunning. Even if he stole something, he wouldn't hide it at home. Also, Qin Huairu is so difficult to deal with. Can she let you turn their house upside down? Just endure this anger for now, wait for Dad to come back and tell Dad about this, let Dad make the decision. He is a leader now, he has ideas."
The Second Aunt gritted her teeth in frustration: "Good, then wait for your dad to come back."
After a while, Liu Haizhong came home with a briefcase tucked under his arm and his big belly sticking out.
The Second Aunt grabbed Liu Haizhong and complained. Liu Haizhong's face was livid: "Go! Let's go find Yan Fugui, I want to hold a full-member meeting!"
"Guangtian! Guangfu! Go!"
The Second Aunt greeted, and the whole family went to the front courtyard.
Liu Haizhong took the lead and walked into the Yan family: "Old Yan, our courtyard has a thief. My house was stolen. This matter is very serious, I want to hold a full-member meeting."
Yan Fugui put down his porridge bowl: "A thief again? Things are lost every few days in this courtyard, it's really not a thing. Okay, I agree to hold a full-member meeting. Jiecheng, Jiefang, stop eating, go notify everyone to have a meeting!"
Liu Haizhong said with a gloomy face: "Guangtian, Guangfu, you go too."
Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiefang, Liu Guangtian, and Liu Guangqi notified every household. Xu Damao, who was kneeling on the washboard, gloated: "I think this is retribution. It must be that Liu Haizhong offended someone and suffered retaliation."
Hearing that Liu Haizhong's house was stolen, Xu Damao was happy in his heart. Who made Liu Haizhong always rely on his seniority to act old and sell old in the factory, and always go against him.
Both of them were captains of the industrial correction team, and both wanted to make contributions and climb up. During this period, the two had many quarrels because of grabbing credit, but every time Liu Haizhong relied on his high seniority to suppress people, which made Xu Damao suffer a lot.
He Wenjie took a feather duster and gave Xu Damao's arm a hit: "Laugh! You still have the face to laugh! You heartless thing! I serve you well at home, can't I satisfy you? You finish in one or two minutes, and you still have the face to go out and mess around! How about it? Can Liu Cuihua let you have a few more minutes? Or is her fart fragrant! I think you are cheap! Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot! You are shameless!"
Xu Damao stood up covering his arm and shouted in anger: "He Wenjie, that's enough! It's about time! You are endless! I went out to find women because you didn't cooperate with me! It's wrong for me to mess around outside, but don't you have any faults? Shouldn't you self-criticize! Just say the day before yesterday I asked you to do that, you refused to do it, and Liu Cuihua was willing, so I like her, so what..."
He Wenjie swung the feather duster at Xu Damao and gave him a beating: "I'll beat you to death, you shameless thing!"
Xu Damao fled with his head in his hands and ran out of the room in a sorry state: "Shrew! Mother tiger! You are unreasonable! I'm going to the meeting! Wait for me to come back and clean you up!"
Watching Xu Damao run away, He Wenjie threw away the feather duster and wailed loudly covering her face.
Why is her life so bitter, why did she believe Xu Damao's ghost words and marry such a fickle thing? It's only been a few years since they got married, and he ran out to mess around, and he still has a reason...
The full-member meeting was successfully held. The three managing uncles, Liu Haizhong, Yan Fugui, and Xu Damao, sat in the middle courtyard and spoke with airs. Liu Haizhong's eyes stared at Banggeng like a knife, but Banggeng looked indifferent and didn't take Liu Haizhong in his eyes at all.
This made Liu Haizhong furious: "Some people in our courtyard are just not self-conscious. They don't learn well at a young age. Stealing a needle when young, stealing gold when old, repeatedly teaching without changing. If this continues, something will happen sooner or later."
Yan Fugui: "From today on, everyone remember to lock the door when going out. We can't give those thieves any opportunity to take advantage of, and we can't encourage that crooked wind and evil spirit."
Xu Damao: "Everyone should strengthen their vigilance. Once you find a thief, take measures immediately. Alright, meeting adjourned."
The residents left in twos and threes, their eyes looking at Banggeng from time to time. The Second Aunt glared at Banggeng with man-eating eyes, and her mouth was still yin and yang. Banggeng didn't care at all and was still playing around with Xiaodang, but Qin Huairu's face became very ugly. ===== CHAPTER 1448 =====
