Chapter 299
Listening to the fat group's growing anxiously roar, Mang Ye quickly realized something was wrong. If someone's cat broke into the yard and heard the fat group's voice, he should be immediately scared away. How could he dare to get closer and closer?
Could it be that a thief has flipped in?
Thinking of this possibility, Sang Ye couldn't sit still, so he hurriedly put on his shoes and came to the outside room with an oil lamp. He saw that the two front legs of the fat group had already been slapped on the door, and he would open the door and rush out at any time.
"Fat Group, don't shout first." Sang Ye pinched the fat group's ears, raised his hand to slap his head to prevent it from continuing to make noise, so as not to alert the snake and let the thief go.
The fat group had a tacit understanding with Sang Ye. Although she couldn't understand what she said, she could understand her gestures. So she put down her forefoot, held her voice and rubbed her hand, and squatted in place without moving. Her round ears stood up straight, listening to the movement outside.
Seeing this, Sang Ye was almost sure that a thief had come in. She put her ear on the door and listened carefully to the movement outside, but she didn't hear any sound. She thought that the thief had not yet reached the touch, so she quietly opened the door and brought the fat group to the next room.
The one who slept in the next room was Mu, just to prevent Mulberry Ye from having something at night, so she could know it in time.
Mu is older and sleeps worse than when she was young. In addition, she is not tired when she doesn’t do heavy work during the day, and she always keeps mulberry leaves hanging on them, so she doesn’t sleep deeply at night. She almost woke up as soon as mulberry leaves knocked on the door.
When he heard the voice of his daughter, Mu was shocked and thought that his daughter was about to give birth. He immediately ignored his shoes and rushed over to open the door, which scared the mulberry leaves standing outside the door.
When Sang Ye urgently explained the situation, Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said nervously: "You go back to the house first, mother takes the fat group out to see, it's going to be a real thief. Mom let the fat group bit him to death." As she said that, she rolled up her sleeves and walked out fiercely.
"Mom, wait first." Sang Ye quickly grabbed his mother and said hurriedly: "We don't know how many thieves have come. If there are only one or two, it's not enough. If there are a group of you and the fat group, it will be dangerous."
Brother Lin is not here, and only these old and weak pregnant women are left at home. The most powerful one is a fat group that cannot understand people's words. If there are more than one or two thieves, no matter how powerful the fat group is, it will be useless. If the thief is angered, the whole family may be in danger.
Mu calmed down, his face feeling uneasy: "What do you think you should do? Those thieves are afraid they will come here soon."
Sang Ye thought about it and immediately had an idea: "Mom, you are fast-moving. Now you go out from the back door to find Brother Lin. As long as Brother Lin comes back, it will be fine."
Although money is something outside of the body and can be earned back after it is gone, everything in the family was earned by the couple with their hands. She was really unwilling to accept that the thieves were so cheap.
It is only two or three miles from home to the entrance of the village where Brother Lin is on duty. As long as Brother Lin can come back in time, these thieves will not be able to escape. If it really doesn't work, she will find ways to drag her back while ensuring her family's safety.
Mu could not think of other ways and knew that his daughter's method was the best, so he nodded and told him carefully: "Mom, go find A Lin now. Stay in the room and don't move around. If the thief forces you to pay the bank, just give it to them. When A Lin comes back, don't suffer any losses."
Sang Ye nodded anxiously, fearing that the thief would come here if he was delayed, so he couldn't help but urge him: "Mom, I know at least, you can go find Brother Lin quickly and don't worry about me."
Mu and Sang Ye thought of going to the same place, and then stopped saying anything when they heard this. They pushed Sang Ye into the room, then turned around and ran towards the back door with brisk steps.
Until Mu's shadow disappeared, Mangye breathed a sigh of relief. He did not return to the room after listening to Mu's words, but came to a big tree with a gentle temper, gently patted its trunk and whispered to ask something.
This is a paulownia tree, the oldest and tallest group in the Zheng family's yard, and can easily "see" every corner of the entire yard. The big tree that had just fallen asleep was woken up, but was not angry, and soon conveyed everything that he "sees" to Mangye.
When she heard that there were as many as seventeen people, Mangye gasped.
These people are by no means ordinary thieves, nor are they victims who have been wandering here.
It should be a robber who followed the victims and didn't know where they came. If this was the case, she would not act rashly, otherwise she would not dare to think that these people would do anything crazy.
Pressing her pounding chest, Sang Ye took a few deep breaths, turned around without hesitation and brought the fat group to the study. After confirming that the large silver notes and decorations would not be found by the thieves, she took another small box containing small silver notes, silver ingots and several silver bracelets back to the room and placed in a small conspicuous place in the wardrobe.
After doing all this, Sang Ye was about to climb onto the bed and pretend to go to bed. Suddenly, a sharp cry from the tiger head came from the next yard, as if he was frightened by something terrible.
Sang Ye felt anxious and didn't care about anything else. He hurriedly picked up the oil lamp and rushed out of the room and wanted to go to the next yard. Seeing this, the fat group lying on the bed screamed loudly, and quickly stood up and rushed out with the shoveler.
However, no one expected that when Sang Ye's hand touched the door latch just opened a crack, the thief who was supposed to be in the next yard unexpectedly appeared here and kicked open the door with his foot.
