There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 191 (One more update)
When Luo Cheng returned home, Li Jiaoniang had already entered the kitchen and started making dinner.

He rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward, "Let me come, you sit and rest for a while."

"I'm not tired, why should I rest? Let's make dinner together?" Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

The two cook dinner together.

Luo Cheng picked out the firewood one by one and laid it in front of the stove to prepare for the fire.

Li Jiaoniang chooses vegetables.

On the way back, Luo Cheng picked some lotus root scallops, enough to cook a big plate.

She picked a basket of purslane, which was delicious but difficult to choose.

The old roots that cannot be bitten have to be picked out.

The chicken at home laid two more eggs, and fried it with a little wild leek pulled out halfway, it was another dish.

Except for eggs, everything else is vegetarian.

Li Jiaoniang thought of the fishnet bag in the ditch, she patted her sleeves and stood up, "I'm going to see what's in the fishnet."

Luo Cheng said, "It's getting dark, walk carefully."

"Where you walk every day, what are you afraid of?" Li Jiaoniang said with a smile. She carried a small bucket and came to the ditch.

The little gray hair jumped down from the tree, and made a report.

Li Jiaoniang narrowed her eyes, huh?
Sure enough, there are thieves!
Could it be that he also stole the prawns in the net pocket last night?

What a thief, let's see how she deals with him.

Li Jiaoniang pulled up some fishing net pockets, which contained some fish and shrimps, it seems that if she didn't pull them up and pick up the fish and shrimps, it would be easier for the thief.

In the six net pockets, some miscellaneous fish, shrimp, loach and eel were caught.

Li Jiaoniang threw the smaller fish and shrimp back into the ditch.

The others were poured into the small bucket, which was more than half full.

It's enough for her and Luo Cheng to eat three meals.

"Good boy, you behaved well today, the fish and shrimp were not stolen." Li Jiaoniang squeezed its ears with a smile, and gave it a bag of candy from her bosom, "Your reward."

The little guy immediately jumped up happily, ran to the tree and squatted with the candy bag in his mouth.

Li Jiaoniang returned to the kitchen with the bucket in hand.

Luo Cheng immediately stepped forward to have a look, "I have gained a lot today."

Li Jiaoniang sneered and said, "Of course, Xiao Tiantian was looking at the ditch today. No one stole it. Someone stole it last night. I didn't pick up a single shrimp this morning." She said The situation reported by the little gray hair.

"It's him again." Luo Cheng's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he was about to go out, "I'll find him."

"Hey, Brother Luo Cheng, come back." Li Jiaoniang pulled him, "I just suspect that if you catch the thief and get the dirt, he won't admit it if you don't get the dirt."

Luo Cheng snorted coldly, "It's cheaper for him."

Li Jiaoniang smiled slyly, "Of course it won't be cheap for him. If he steals once, he will definitely steal again. Stealing is the same as gambling, it is addictive."

Luo Cheng looked at Li Jiaoniang.

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Let's turn off the lights early tonight, pretend to go to sleep early, and then quietly wait for the thief." Then, she talked about her plan.

The corners of Luo Cheng's mouth twitched. How many ghostly ideas are there in Li Jiaoniang's head?
"Well, let's do it." He nodded in agreement.

The two discussed it and seized the time to make dinner.

Li Jiaoniang picked out two fat eels, Luo Cheng killed them, washed them, cut them into sections, and made a plate of braised eels.

For the other fish and shrimp, Li Jiaoniang poured them into a big old wooden basin, filled them with clean water and raised them.

This is tomorrow's dish.

After dinner, Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng turned off the lights and sat in the main room, "waiting" for the thief.

On the tree by the ditch outside, squatting a little gray fur with bright eyes.

……

Chunya was sent home by Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang. Seeing her happy face, Mrs. Zhong quickly asked, "Why are you happy? Are you smiling all the time?"

Chunya was about to speak, when Luo Fucai came over, "Chunya, how much did you sell the herbal medicine? By the way, there are two fat rabbits, each of which can only sell for one or two hundred cash, right? Where is the money? Dad will save it for you." stand up."

The smile on Chunya's face immediately faded.

She smiled wryly in her heart, Sister Jiao Niang guessed really accurately, her father would definitely ask her for money.

save?Save it and give it to her?

She doesn't believe it.

Her father took a lot of money from her mother and said that he saved it, but it has been saved for many years, and he has not seen a penny back.

Chunya bit her lips, "It's... not much, the rabbit is dead, and it died last night, everyone doesn't want it, and two of them only cost a hundred cash. Herbs only sold for a few hundred Wen, all the money added up is less than a penny. I bought some household items, and there are only [-] yuan left."

Luo Cheng didn't believe it, and said at the top of his voice, "What? Two rabbits only sold for a hundred coins? You son of a bitch, you're doing business like crazy!"

Mrs. Zhong came to persuade, "His father, Chunya is young and inexperienced, how would she know how much to sell? Besides, who are the people in the market? Everyone can talk and bargain, she is a little girl, How can you say that? It’s not bad to sell a hundred coins.”

"Aren't there Luo Cheng and his wife? Why don't they help?" Luo Fucai hummed.

Zhong's face was sullen, "Do you think he is Chunya's follower? They don't do business? Don't they do business?"

Luo Fucai raised his eyebrows, "I said Chunbao his mother, why do you always contradict me? You are a woman who is becoming more and more disliked."

Zhong Shi was so angry that he gritted his teeth and sneered, he actually still dislikes her?

Yes, she was a gentle person before, and she was considerate of him everywhere, but this man actually sold his daughter!

Can she still have a good temper?

Zhong pulled Chunya over and ignored Luo Fucai, "Chunya, after a day of sunning outside, go drink herbal tea to relieve the heat."

Chun Ya's heart warmed up, and it was better for her mother, "Yeah."

"Hey, what are you talking about as a woman? I'm talking to my daughter. What are you crossing? Chunya, Chunya!" Luo Fucai followed again, "Where's the rest of the money? Give it to Dad Come on, Dad will keep it for you. You are a girl, if you have too much money, you will be cheated."

He hardly allowed Chunya to distinguish, snatched Chunya's shoulder pocket, reached out his hand to feel inside, took out a money bag and grabbed it in his hand, left the empty cloth bag and left.

Zhong Shi came to his senses, stomped his feet angrily and cursed, "Why did you even take the child's money? You bastard man."

Luo Fucai pretended not to hear, and left on his own.

Zhong was so angry that she sat on the small stool at the door of the melon shed and patted her thigh, "Why didn't God accept him." She was so mad.

Once the money is in Luo Fucai's hands, he will definitely use it for gambling.

Chun Ya was not like her mother, who was angry and crying, but she was relieved.

Her father took that little money away, so her father would never ask her for money again.

"Mother, Dad didn't take all of them. My daughter still has a few hundred Wen." Chunya took a bag from her waist purse and handed it to Mrs. Zhong. "Here are five hundred Wen, and Dad only took three hundred Wen." Bailaiwen."

When she was still at the market, Sister Jiao Niang told her that money should not be put in one pocket, otherwise, it would not be possible to save money.

At that time, she didn't understand, so she asked Miss Jiao Niang carefully.

Sister Jiao Niang told her that after she returned home, her father would be the first to ask about the money she earned, followed by mother.

Dad will definitely take her money, but mother may not.

If you put all the money in one place, her father will take it all away. The best way is to put it in separate places.

She usually puts her pocket money in her back pocket. Sure enough, her father snatched her backpack and took a bag of money from it.

It was only a part of the money, and the other money that was going to be given to the mother's family was put in the pocket at the waist.

And the three pennies she had saved in private had been exchanged for bank notes by Sister Jiao Niang, and she had sewn them inside the sleeves with the needle and thread newly bought by Sister Jiao Niang.

No one can find out.

Zhong Shi was holding the heavy purse, excited and sad at the same time.

Excitedly, my daughter will make money.In fact, she doesn't ask her daughter to make money to supplement the family. Being able to support herself is the greatest help to the family.

Sadly, the money was snatched away by that bad gambler before it was warmed up in the daughter's pocket.

He didn't make money and even robbed his daughter. He wanted to piss her off.

"Mother has money, Chunya, take the money and use it yourself. You are old enough to learn how to dress up, buy flowers to wear, buy a decent dress to wear." Zhong wiped away tears , Put the money bag back into Chunya's hand.

Chunya shook her head, "Mother, you can just take it. When your daughter is grown up, it is right to make money to support the family. Besides. Next time, if you buy medicine and sell it, you will have money again."

She insisted on not wanting it.

Chunbao ran over at this moment, "Don't you all want it? Then give it to me, I want it."

Zhong's face darkened, "What do you want?"

Chun Bao said, "You don't want it, it's a pity to throw it away, why don't you give it to me."

Zhong laughed angrily, "Children, you should learn from your sister, she will make money, you know she wants money."

Chunya took out five Wen coins from the money bag and handed it to Chunbao.

Chun Bao grinned and picked it up, "Ah, Qian Qian Qian."

From time to time in the village, there is a peddler who sells candy buns and small clay figurines.

One penny can buy ten small candies, or one steamed bun or two steamed buns.

You can also buy a little clay figurine.

They are all Chunbao's favorites.

Chun Bao was about to grab the money, but Chun Ya quickly withdrew her hand, squinting at her, "Will you scold me next time?"

Chunbao used to rely on Luo Chengsun's favor, always against Chunya, and even scolded Chunya, Chunya remembered.

Chun Bao glanced at her, squeezed his fingers, and said timidly, "No."

"Then you swear, just say, I will stop scolding my sister and stop being naughty, and listen to my sister and mother, otherwise, I will never have candy and buns to eat, and I will be chased by dogs." Chun Ya said seriously.

No candy is a small matter, but being chased by a dog can be fatal.

Chun Bao immediately said, "I will definitely listen to my sister and my mother, and I will not be naughty."

"Okay, take it." Chunya put five Wen coins in Chunbao's hand.

Chunbao jumped up happily, "Oh, I'm rich."

Chunya carried him back again, "Come back, I still have something to say."

"Chun Ya, tell me." Chun Bao, who was short of money, stood obediently in front of Chun Ya.

Chunya bent down, looked at his face, and whispered, "You are not allowed to tell dad about the money I gave mother, remember?"

"I remember." Chun Bao nodded.

Chunya said again, "That money is for mother to buy rice and clothes. If dad takes it away, he will spend it blindly, and we will have no rice to eat. Do you want to eat porridge with wild vegetables and millet every day?"

Millet porridge is not as good as white porridge, "I don't want to."

"Then remember my reminder." Chunya patted Chunbao's head, "You can go now."

Then Chunbao happily ran to play.

Zhong looked at Chun Ya, feeling both sad and happy in her heart, she had grown up again, she was no longer a timid girl who would cry when scolded, she was a little girl who didn't know how to fight back when she was beaten, she was a big girl now.

"Mother, take this money. I'll go pick herbs tomorrow. After half a month, I'll have this much money again." Chun Ya stuffed the money bag into Zhong's hand.

Mrs. Zhong had no choice but to accept it, "Hey, mother, take it and buy some delicious food for you two sisters."

……

Time passed little by little, and soon it was the dead of night.

When Li Jiaoniang was about to fall asleep, Xiao Huimao jumped into the main room and reported without a word that someone had gone to the ditch.

Li Jiaoniang's drowsiness disappeared in an instant.

Luo Cheng picked up a pole in his hand and said in a low voice, "I'll go first, don't run ahead."

Li Jiaoniang is not big, but she always likes to get ahead in fights. Although she has never suffered a loss, what if she encounters a more powerful one?
Li Jiaoniang was funny, "I know, I know, let's go, be careful that that person runs away."

The two gently opened the back door, and from the backyard door, they walked towards the ditch lightly.

It is the beginning of the month, there is no moon in the sky, and the earth is dark.

There are only some fireflies flying freely in the air.

Li Jiaoniang narrowed her eyes and stared forward, but no, there was a vague black shadow walking around furtively by the ditch.

Luo Cheng stepped forward quietly, raised his foot, and kicked the man into the ditch.

"Ah—" the man yelled and rolled into the ditch.
