Tian's little cook

Chapter 31
"There are no thieves in the house." Lin Cui'er was terrified when she saw so many villagers coming, and her mother was still rummaging through things in the house.

"Cousin, how do you know if there is a thief in my house?" Lin Zhimo asked curiously.

"I..." Lin Cui'er bit her lower lip, "I've been working as a female celebrity in the yard, and I haven't seen anyone go in."

"Just now everyone saw you walking out of your house, how could you be 'in the yard all the time'?" Since she wanted to find such a clumsy excuse, Lin Zhimo immediately exposed it to her face, "And why do you keep staring at me when you are a female celebrity? Watch at my house?"

Lin Cui'er couldn't speak, but she couldn't let these people in, "If I say no, then there won't be!" She yelled at Lin Zhimo, not caring about pretending to be a good girl in front of Sun Ranjiu, "Don't you believe I?"

Seeing her unreasonable reaction, Sun Ranjiu also guessed the people in the house, "There are thieves in Lin Zhimo's house, it's not like you said there is no one, now we go in and check."

The villagers on the side were also anxious to catch the thief, and arranged for everyone: "Only open the door, not the kitchen door, and leave a few people guarding the door."

Lin Zhimo didn't lock the door when he left. People in the village rarely lock the door. After all, there is nothing valuable in the house, so the door can be locked from the inside.

Sun Ranjiu pushed the door thousands of times, but the door did not move. It seemed that it was closed by the people inside. He turned his head and smiled ironically at the anxious Lin Cuier, "You still said that there is no one inside, and the door is all for this thief. Locked."

Lin Cui'er knew that it was useless to say anything now, and her own mother was blocked by others.

"Open the door quickly, or we will rush in and send you directly to the government." A man knocked on the door loudly, warning the people inside.

There was still no movement at the door, and a few men beside him became impatient and proposed to rush in directly.

Lin Zhimo suddenly remembered that the kitchen door was not locked, "If you go in from the kitchen, the thief may have forgotten to lock the kitchen door."

When the men heard this, they immediately went to push the kitchen door, but it was unlocked.Everyone rushed to the main room together, and sure enough, they saw a person standing there, who seemed to be a woman.

"Second Aunt!" Lin Zhimo saw that it was Mrs. Xu as soon as he entered, so he called out on purpose, "Why are you?"

When everyone heard this, they put down the farm tools in their hands. Everyone knew Mrs. Xu, but no one thought that this thief was Lin Zhimo's aunt.

When Xu was looking through things, she suddenly heard the sound of catching thieves outside. When she rushed to the door, she found that everyone had already surrounded the door.She didn't dare to open the door, she just hoped that Lin Cuier could let these people leave quickly.

It wasn't until she heard people outside that she wanted to report to the official that she panicked, and everyone trembled. She didn't want to see the official.Lin Yaozong of her family was going to be the No. [-] Scholar, and seeing the official would delay his life.

When Xu heard Lin Zhimo's voice through the door, she hated it very much.She heard Lin Cuier's cry last night and decided to teach her a lesson.While cooking in the school at noon, the butcher who came to deliver the meat said that he saw Lin Zhimo in Yunze City.

Xu remembered that Lin Cui'er said that there was a strange man lying in Lin Zhimo's house yesterday, so she wanted to take this opportunity to expose the matter so that everyone would know that Lin Zhimo was indiscreet.

She thought that today is the time to go to the big market, and the afternoon is the busiest. Lin Zhimo must have come back late.So after she finished her work at the school, she rushed home, let Lin Cuier look out, and sneaked in by herself.

As a result, there was no one in the house, and the man disappeared.Xu was not reconciled, thinking that Lin Zhimo still had several taels of silver in his hand, she suddenly became greedy.

The back room was next to the bamboo forest, the light was too dark, and she couldn't touch the candles, so she had to open the window and start searching around.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhimo came back early and brought a group of people to catch the thief.
