Chapter 70 The Escaped Thief

Walnut quickly climbed down from the kang, walked into the kitchen in the dark, found a broken pot, and held it in his hand.

The other hand touched the rice spoon and held it in her hand. She returned to the kang and came to the window. While the two thieves were walking out with bags of sweet potatoes on their backs, she quietly pushed the window and jumped. He went out and knocked on the basin in his hand. In this silent night, the old basin and the spoon were knocked together, and the sound was heard far and wide.

The two thieves who were carrying sweet potato bags staggered in fright when they heard the sudden noise, and the sweet potato bags they were carrying were thrown from their shoulders. The two thieves quickly stood still, and then instinctively went He ran outside the door, but after running two steps, they stopped again, turned around and looked at Walnut.

At this time, Walnut didn't stop the movement in her hand, and continued to knock on the broken pot in her hand vigorously. Seeing the two thieves ran for two steps and stopped, she was a little scared, but she still stood there bravely.

Although Walnut and the thief were not far away at this time, but because it was too dark, she didn't see the thief's appearance clearly.For a moment, Walnut and the thief stood against each other.

The two thieves saw that it was the little girl Walnut, standing in the yard, suddenly they were not afraid, and they were about to approach Walnut.

Seeing this, Walnut instinctively felt the danger, but he didn't move his footsteps, but looked behind the two thieves and shouted: "Catch them two, they are thieves."

The thief who was approaching Walnut heard Walnut shouting at his back. The two guilty thieves turned around and ran away without even looking back.Soon he ran out of the walnut's yard.

When the runway reached the gate, the two thieves came to their senses, stopped, and looked back into the yard, where they saw walnuts still standing there knocking on the old pots.The two thieves no longer had the desire to return to the yard.He walked up to the ox cart and planned to take the cart away, but at this moment, the lights of neighbors around Walnut's house were turned on, and footsteps and shouts could be heard from the yard.Seeing this, the two thieves couldn't help but give up their ox cart and ran out of the village along the road.

After running for two steps, the two thieves were a little unwilling to give up, and stopped again, wanting to go back to lead the bullock cart, but seeing the lights of the neighbors around them turned on, and they didn't have the guts, so they had no choice but to stop the bullock cart again Ran.

Walnut walked to the door of the house, and stood there observing the movements of the two thieves, with his heart in his throat, fearing that the two daring thieves were coming back.

Seeing that the two thieves really abandoned the car and ran away this time, Walnut breathed a sigh of relief, only feeling that his legs were weak and his whole body had no strength.After a while, Walnut walked up to the ox cart that was still standing there, reached out and took its rein, and led it into the yard.

Walnut had just led the ox cart into the yard, when he heard the voice of his neighbor Grandpa Liu coming from the gate of the yard, he only heard him standing at the door and asked: "Walnut, what are you doing knocking on the pot in the middle of the night, what are you doing?" What happened at home?"

Just as Grandpa Liu's words fell, before Walnut could speak, Zhengshan's voice came from outside the door again, and Zhengshan asked out of breath, "Walnut, what's going on, what happened in the middle of the night? "

Walnut listened to the two people's questioning, looked at the door and said tremblingly: "Grandpa Liu, Zhengshan, come in!"

As soon as Walnut finished speaking, Zhengshan and Grandpa Liu opened the door and walked in. When they saw Walnut leading the ox cart and pulling the bag of sweet potatoes, both of them were stunned. What are you doing, that bullock cart?"

Walnut listened to their questions, looked at them and said, "This is the bullock cart used by the thieves to steal grain from our house, and our grain is also loaded on the cart by the thieves."

Hearing Walnut's words, Zhengshan's expression changed and he asked, "Why did you recruit a thief in your house? This thief is too bold! He drove the car to steal."

Hearing Zhengshan's words, Walnut said with a pale face, "Yes! Fortunately, I found it in time, otherwise, all these sweet potatoes would have been stolen, but it's okay now, at least the food is preserved and not lost."

Neighbor Grandpa Liu listened to Walnut's words, looked at the food on the car, and then asked Walnut, "It's fine if you don't lose it, but what are you going to do with this car?"

Walnut listened to Grandpa Liu's words, looked at him, shook his head and said, "I don't know! I haven't figured it out yet! Just now I was only concerned about being afraid, and I'm still thinking about what to do!"

Hearing what Walnut said, Zhengshan walked up to her and said, "reach out and gently hold Walnut's little hand, and said: "Don't be afraid, we will accompany you to find a solution. "

While the three of them were talking in the yard, a few voices came from the door, and they stood at the door and said, "What's going on! Is it the walnut family's knock?"

Hearing these neighbors coming from the door, Walnut hurriedly said: "It's okay, my house was burglarized just now, and I didn't take anything away. I heard me knocking on the basin and ran away. Uncles and aunts, please go home and sleep quickly! I'm sorry." Disturbing your rest."

Hearing what Walnut said, the villagers all dispersed and returned to their homes. For a while, only Grandpa Liu and Zhengshan were left in the yard.

At this time, I heard Grandpa Liu say: "Walnut, it's fine to unload the grain, but what about this car! The car belongs to a thief, you should find a way to return it, otherwise, it will be very troublesome in the future. "

Listening to Grandpa Liu's words, Walnut looked at him with some puzzlement and asked, "Why?"

Grandpa Liu listened to Walnut's question and said: "You are still young, you and your grandma will be together in this family from now on, you are not suitable to offend these two thieves, haven't you heard of it? Please forgive me , This sentence refers to a thief. Usually, if people here find a thief in the middle of the night, they will yell and run away. If this is the case, he will never come to your house again."

"If you catch him and let the whole village or nearby people know that he is a thief, then you will be out of luck in the future. He will watch your house and steal. Isn't there a saying, don't be afraid of thieves, I'm afraid that the thieves will miss it, think about it this time when the thieves came to steal your food, but they didn't steal it, and even put the ox cart here, if you don't return it to them, the life between you and your grandma will be peaceful in the future Is it? Even if you report to the government and catch the thief, he will not commit a capital crime, and he will be released again after being locked up for a few days, and then he will really miss your family."
