There was no shortage of food on the way to escape, and the lucky lady was busy farming.

Chapter 84

He thought that those people were here to cause trouble, and he was worried. Just when he was about to pick up the guy and fight with those people, he heard the group of people speak loudly:

"Is the lady selling hot and sour noodles there that day? Let's buy hot and sour noodles!"

"That's right, little lady, why haven't you come out for a few days? It's rare to find such reasonably priced, novel and delicious food these days!"

Yang Mingli didn't react for a moment, and was stunned for a few seconds before he realized that the person everyone was talking about was Song Rutang.

Just when he was about to go back home and call someone, he saw Song Rutang walking out with a crooked body, holding on to the door frame and saying with a weak expression:

"Are you guys here to buy hot and sour noodles? Today, my little girl caught a cold and is not in good health. She is afraid of infecting others. She really doesn't dare to make hot and sour noodles.

Please wait a moment. Tomorrow at noon, the girl will set up a stall in front of the Yang Mansion to sell hot and sour noodles again. "

Although everyone felt sorry in their hearts, when they heard that there would be hot and sour noodles the day after tomorrow and there was still hope, they all went home and waited with fingers crossed for the day after tomorrow.

Yang Mingli looked back and saw Song Rutang looking haggard, so he thought she was really sick.

"What's wrong? Do you need to call a doctor for you?"

"No need," Song Rutang shook her head weakly, seeming to be holding back the discomfort, and said with a smile:

"It's just a normal wind and cold. It'll be fine in a few days. I'll just go back to my room and rest for a while."

Yang Mingli nodded and watched her go back to the room, sighing in his heart that his niece was really sensible.

After Song Rutang returned to her bedroom, as soon as she closed the door, she immediately ran to the basin and washed off the makeup on her face.

As soon as her makeup was removed and her illness was gone, Song Rutang called the system:

"Has he been found?"

As for the system, they watched Zhu Youcai for a day and saw him struggling repeatedly. Only then did he see him dig out some silver coins from the cellar, take some secretly, then put the many silver coins back to their original places, climb out of the cellar and go out. .

After watching the entire process, it was not until Zhu Youcai left the house that the system felt relieved and replied to Song Rutang:

[The target has found Yinliang and is sending the specific location to the host. 】

Not long after, Song Rutang received the location, took a brief look, and then immediately spent [-] points on a limited-time invisibility cloak from the mall.

Putting on the invisibility cloak, she quietly opened the door a small crack, sneaked out, and headed straight to Zhu Youcai's house.

Afraid of running out of time, she also bought a pair of limited-time acceleration shoes, hurriedly and slowly arrived at Zhu Youcai's house an hour later.

It was broad daylight, and most of the Zhu family went out to look for work. Song Rutang walked in with a big swagger and walked directly into the Zhu family's cellar.

When I opened the lid, I was greeted by a smell of putrid smell.

Song Rutang pinched her nose and went down to the cellar. She found that there were a lot of rotten vegetables piled together, giving off an unpleasant smell.

But the map showed that the 50 taels of silver were at the bottom. Song Rutang found a stick, picked apart the piled rotten vegetable leaves, and dug out the 50 taels of silver from underneath.

Without hesitation, she stuffed all the money into her space backpack, turned around and left.

But after she turned around, the veil on her body fell from her waist, losing the protection of the invisibility cloak, and her original shape gradually appeared on the ground.

*
Mother Zhu always felt very uneasy, thinking about things from left to right, and was very worried. She ran home without even finishing her work, and went down to the cellar to check.

But the closer she got, the heavier her heart became.This pile of vegetable leaves is much lower than before. Could it be...

She opened the vegetable leaves and saw that the 50 taels of silver were missing. She rubbed her eyes. No matter how she looked, she could not find the 50 taels of silver.

His vision went dark, and he fainted.

When she woke up again, she saw Zhu Youcai next to her staring at her. Seeing that she was awake, his eyes filled with tears and he said:
"Mom, I was wrong. I will never steal money again. Can you get up and cook for me? Your son is going to starve to death!"

Zhu's mother was so angry that she slapped Zhu Youcai and cursed in a weak voice:
"What did you do with that 50 taels of silver, you loser?"

Zhu Youcai was suddenly slapped and was stunned. He covered his face and said doubtfully:

"What 50 taels? I only stole ten taels. Mother, what's wrong with you?"

He was full of doubts and extremely aggrieved.

He had always grown up being held in the palm of others' hands, and he had whatever he wanted. Why did his mother hit him?
Why should he be unjustly accused of stealing 50 taels?

Mother Zhu's heart, which had dropped slightly, was raised again. She couldn't catch her breath and almost fainted again. She shook her hands and said:

"Where did the money in the cellar go? You can't just run away on your own?"

"What? Gone? All gone?"

Only then did Zhu Youcai react. When he heard that all the 50 taels of silver were gone, he immediately forgot about his grievances, slapped his thigh and cursed:

"Which bastard stole my money? You're blind, and you stole it from me, grandpa. If I find him, I'll see if I don't beat him to death!"

The mother and son each cursed each other, and scolded each other in the face for a long time. Finally, Zhu's mother got tired of scolding first, so she stopped the son who was scolding him and said:

"Shall we go down and have a look?"

"Mom, go by yourself. That place is very smelly. I don't want to go there a second time."

When Zhu Youcai thought of the unpleasant smell in the cellar, he pursed his lips with disgust on his face.

Zhu's mother was helpless, but after all, it was her son. If she didn't love him, who would?I could only push myself up and go down to the cellar to check.

After looking around, she still couldn't see where the 50 taels of silver had gone, but this time, Zhu's mother finally saw the missing veil on the ground.

Picking up the handkerchief, he climbed up and asked Zhu Youcai:
"Is this veil yours?"

Zhu Youcai shook his head.

"That would be strange. Could it be that a strong woman came to carry away all our money?"

Zhu's mother was puzzled, but Zhu Youcai didn't say anything and stared at the handkerchief for a long time.

He always felt that this veil became more and more familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

After thinking for a long time, I saw the noodle bowl printed on it and finally remembered where I had seen this veil.

Isn't this what I saw around the waist of the little lady I met when I went to Yang's Mansion that day?
At that time, he thought the veil was strange and couldn't help but look at it a few more times. Now that he saw the veil again, his mind finally became clearer.

No wonder that little lady was trying to squeeze him everywhere that day. She must have followed him secretly, saw him taking the money, and after he left, she stole all the remaining money!
The more Zhu Youcai thought about it, the angrier he became, and his resentment against Zhu's mother for slapping him was transferred to Song Rutang, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"I know who stole the 50 taels of silver."
