pastoral little wife

Chapter 229
When Yun Duo heard the cry, she immediately raised her eyebrows, "It's the eldest sister!" and hurried over quickly.

Nie Dalang followed closely behind.

Yunying wants to stay at home to watch the door. Although there is a reason why she doesn't have to go out to pay New Year's greetings because she is not her own place, the more reason is that the door is not closed on the first day of the new year. Yunduo and Nie Dalang go out to pay New Year's greetings.

The offerings are not only melons and fruits, but also money. Even if the family is not well-off, they will take out some money and put it on the table.What Nie Dalang put on was a silver ingot worth five taels of silver.

In the blink of an eye, the effort was lost, and Yunying was terrified. It was five taels of silver, and it was an offering to God, which was even more meaningful.

"Sister?" Yun Duo hurried over.

When Yunying saw Yunduo, tears flowed even more fiercely, "Yunduo...it's all my useless! I lost sight of the offering money!"

Sister-in-law Shangen saw Yun Duo and Nie Dalang coming, and quickly explained, "I came here with a few sisters-in-law and younger sisters to see if you have finished paying New Year's greetings, and saw your elder sister crying anxiously. The five liang of silver that was said to be offered is gone! In the middle Only your second aunt has been here, and the others didn't enter the house when they heard that you were not at home, she must have taken it!"

The other daughter-in-law also nodded in agreement, "It's so vicious! If you steal all the money you give to God, you won't be afraid of retribution!?"

Several people complained about the injustice and said that they would go to Mrs. Liu to get the money back.

Yunying was in a panic, and Yun Xiao also cried with red eyes.

"Sister, don't worry! Tell me what's going on?" Yun Duo grabbed Yunying's hand.

Yunying nodded hurriedly, and cried, "I was watching at home, and your second aunt came over, so I let her in and brought her sunflower seeds. She said there were too few, so let me bring more. I think the basket is empty. I went to grab some melon seeds and peanuts and put them in. She filled a few pockets and left. I didn’t pay attention at first, but I saw that the incense was almost burnt out, and I was going to burn another stick of incense. That’s when I saw you The money offered is gone.” It was five taels of silver, she was useless and could lose it in a blink of an eye.

"Did no one else come into the house during this period?" Nie Dalang asked.

Yunying shook her head, "They didn't even come in, at most they went to the yard, and heard that you and Yun Duo left before they came back."

"Hehe!" Yun Duo didn't know what to say about Mrs. Liu.Dare to take the money offered for the offering, is it because he has no brains, or is he too close to the money?

"Go find her! If you dare to steal the offering money, God will be watching! You can't run away from her!"

"That's right! Let's go find her! We must ask her to hand over the money!"

"Let's go together!"

Nie Lan and Nie Mei's eyes widened.

"No...impossible?" Nie Mei didn't quite believe it. After all, it was the money from the offering. How dare Second Aunt take it?

Nie Lan rolled her eyes, "It's impossible! The five liang of silver is right at hand, no one saw it, so I just reached out and took it."

"That's the money offered to God. God and all the gods are watching!" Nie Mei still didn't quite believe it.

Nie Lan heard Nie Dalang say, "Catch thieves and seize stolen goods. If there is no evidence, don't talk nonsense."We went over to ask about the situation', and she ran home.That's five taels of silver. She wants to go back and see where the second aunt is, has she hidden the silver?

Nie Dalang burned a stick of incense, locked the door of the main room, and went to Nie's old house with Yun Duo and Yun Ying.

Sister-in-law Yamane and her party followed behind.

Nie Mei didn't know what to do, so she had to follow along.

Nie Lan had already run home, and there were people in the family who came to pay New Year's greetings to old man Nie and Mrs. Gan, but Mrs. Liu was not in the main room.She lifted her foot and walked towards the West Room where Mrs. Liu and Nie Ergui lived.

Mrs. Liu was sitting on the kang and cracking melon seeds, with a complacent and unconcealable joy in her expression, and a little excited.That little slut is really rich, and he took five taels of silver to make a confession. I don't know how much he earned a year ago!

When she looked up and saw Nie Lan approaching, she straightened her face, "What are you doing sneaking around, you damn girl?"

Nie Lan retorted directly, "Second Aunt who is celebrating Chinese New Year still scolds me, you are cursing me!"

"You bitch, who cursed you! Are you lying at the door furtively, trying to steal something or something?" Liu scolded after staring.

Nie Lan curled her lips, "I don't dare to steal things during Chinese New Year!"

Liu's eyelids twitched, "What are you doing here?"

Nie Lan smiled, turned and left.He ran into the main room and grabbed Gan Shi's arm.

Gan looked at her in surprise, "What's the matter?"

"Grandma..." Nie Lan whispered in her ear about the loss of the money donated by Yun Duo's family, "Only the second aunt ever entered their house."

Gan Shi was taken aback and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing that she didn't believe it, Nie Lan pointed at the gate, "Brother, they'll be here soon."

When she finished speaking, Nie Dalang and Yun Duo came over.

Gan was so frightened and angry that his hands trembled.

Mrs. Zhang, Nie Dagui, and Old Man Nie were also puzzled.

The door was not closed on the first day of the lunar new year, and Nie Dalang, Yun Duo and his party came in directly through the door and went straight to the main room.

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly came out to say hello, "Have everyone finished their New Year's greetings? Would you like some tea..." Seeing that the mood was not right, Yunying's eyes were still red, and she was full of suspicion.

Nie Dalang looked cold, pursed his lips slightly, did not enter the house, but stopped outside the main room door, "Is second aunt not at home?"

Mrs. Liu in the room trembled in fright, spat out the skin of the melon seeds, her eyes darkened, she took another melon seed and threw it into her mouth, and then she took out her shoes, "What do you want me to do?"

Gan grinned, smiling unnaturally, and came up to hold Yun Duo's hand, "Come here and taste the hemp leaves and sanzi brought back by girls Nie Mei and Nie Lan. You didn't fry them during the Chinese New Year, so I'll take them back and order some later." , eat with a smile!" He said in a low voice, "What's the matter, grandma will decide for you later." Don't let Yun Duo say it in person.

Originally, it would be embarrassing to tell about the theft. If there is a thief in a family, the whole family will be ashamed.The newly married daughter-in-law at home.Not to mention such a serious matter as stealing the donated money!When the time comes to speak out, and make a fuss again, people will know that the face of the old Nie family will be completely humiliated!

A look of coldness flashed across Yun Duo's eyes, and she also pursed her lips into a smile, "Okay! But let's ask Second Aunt something. How about Second Aunt go and close the door?"
