Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

The village chief frowned, he didn't expect that someone would come to steal the seeds shortly after they were planted. There must be a traitor in the village, otherwise how could the news spread so quickly?

"How did you find out that the seeds were stolen?" He Guang asked curiously. You know, the seeds were planted and covered with soil.

Even if the seeds were stolen, ordinary people would not know about it because they would never guess that someone would steal seeds.

If the seeds haven't germinated after a certain period of time, at most people would just suspect that the seeds are bad, but they would never think that the seeds have been stolen, so it can be done without anyone knowing.

"It's all thanks to Si Gong!" Aunt Da Zhu said, "It was Si Gong who discovered it first and shouted at the edge of the field.

I also wanted to take a look at the land, and when I heard him say that, I went up to take a look, and found that there seemed to be something wrong with our land. There were signs that someone had moved on every ridge.

I thought something was wrong, so I turned the land over, but I didn’t see a single seed.”

Uncle Huangpi nodded and said, "Yes, what Dazhu Niang said is right! Anyway, I heard what Si Gong said later. I was worried and went to check the fields. I found that the fields in the middle of the village were fine, but the land next to Niugu Village was stolen."

"There's something even stranger." Shorty Sigong looked at the village chief and frowned, saying, "I planted both peppers and potatoes on my land, but people only dug up the potatoes and left the peppers.

I looked at the pepper fields and they were not touched at all. How do you think the other party knew which row of peppers were planted and which row of potatoes were planted? Could it be that there is a traitor in our village? He is playing a trick of collusion with others from the inside and outside? "

"Hmm~"

Uncle Dazhu and his wife and Uncle Huangpi nodded: "What Si Gong said makes sense, we think so too."

Suddenly another question came to his mind, and the village chief carefully asked them where the fields that were stolen were. After listening to what they said, the village chief had a general idea.

Kaoshan Village is adjacent to Dahe Village and Niugu Village. These two villages are less than two miles away from Kaoshan Village. Kaoshan Village is in the middle, with Dahe Village on the left and Niugu Village on the right.

Some of the fields in these three villages are adjacent to each other, so it is possible that they were stolen. The field where Uncle Huangpi’s fields were stolen was next to Niugu Village, while Aunt Dazhu and Aizai Sigong’s fields were next to Dahe Village.

But stealing seeds is different from growing crops. If the crops have grown, it is easy to steal. But to steal seeds like this, you have to turn over the crops one by one, which is not a quick task.

Of course, the theft would definitely not happen during the day. It has rained and most of the villagers are busy in the fields during the day. It must be dark at night so as not to attract attention.

But it would be difficult to turn over the seeds at night. He had to use lighting tools, such as a fire stick or an oil lamp. He went through so much trouble just to steal the seeds. It really took a lot of effort!

At present, a total of six or seven acres of crops have been stolen from these households. They had only been planting for less than three nights, and the theft happened in just these two nights.

The village chief hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Who else knows about this?"

Several people said at the same time: "Not many, just a few of us, we just happened to meet on the road, I haven't even gone home yet!"

"Then you guys go back and I'll discuss it with Dachun Niang. It's settled." Having said that, the village chief stood up.

After hearing what they said, the village chief basically understood everything, and he told them not to make it public for the time being so as not to alert the enemy.

Since the village chief knew about this, they felt relieved and several people walked out of the He family's house together.

Seeing them walk out, Xiao sat down quickly and said, "Boss, who do you think did this? I don't know if our fields have been stolen. I have just sent the eldest and second sons out to check our fields."

Listening to Xiao's chatter, He Guang's face was filled with black lines: "You ask me, who should I ask? I have no idea yet."

"Dad, Mom~" The eldest and second sons of the He family walked in quickly, their faces full of joy. He Jing said, "My eldest brother and I checked our fields separately, and the seeds are still there, they haven't been stolen."

"That's good, that's good~" Xiao's nervous heart calmed down.

The village chief's expression also eased, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't say anything, I'll go talk to Dachun Niang." After that, he walked out with his hands behind his back.

Shen Ping was still a little surprised at the arrival of the village chief. The seeds had just been distributed, so why was the village chief here again?

Now Shen Ping finally understood that it would be better if the village chief didn't come, because if he did, it would definitely be bad news.

Sure enough, when the village chief saw Shen Ping, he told her everything before she could ask any questions. Shen Ping's face suddenly darkened when she heard this.

I didn't expect these people to come up with such an idea. Who are they that can act so quickly and have such well-informed information?

"Knock knock~"

Shen Ping's hands tapped the table rhythmically. Suddenly, she looked up at the village chief with burning eyes and said, "Who else knows about this?"

"Not many. Including my wife and two sons, there are only about seven or eight people."

"That's fine. Tell everyone not to make it public for now. I think they've gotten away with stealing so they'll do it again tonight. We'll just sit back and wait for them to take advantage of us." Shen Ping raised the corners of her mouth as she spoke.

"Village Chief, let's do this~"

"..."

The village chief listened to Shen Ping's words and nodded, a smile gradually appeared on his face: "Well, Dachun Niang, your plan is good, not bad! Let's do it this way!"

At night, the mountain village was completely silent. Except for the occasional sounds of crickets and frogs croaking in the fields, the silence in the village was eerily quiet.

At this time, a crescent moon rose in the sky. Under the faint moonlight, two figures, one tall and one short, walked towards them from the direction of Dahe Village.

This is a man and a woman, both about 30 years old, pale and thin, looking malnourished. They walked one after the other, looking around from time to time with a furtive look.

"Hey! Boss, wait for me, I'm scared!" The woman following behind said nervously, "Why don't we stop? It will be difficult if we are discovered."

The man in front stopped in annoyance and said, "We are almost starving to death, what are you afraid of? Hurry up, dig as much as you can. Those people are so stupid, they don't even know that we are digging seeds!" After saying that, the man continued to move forward.

Seeing that the man did not stop, the woman had no choice but to follow him.

"We're here~"

The man stopped, blew on the fire stick, and in the weak light, he took out the bamboo strips he had shaved and started digging in the soft ground, digging up potatoes and sweet potatoes and throwing them into the basket on his back.

The woman also squatted on the ground and started to work. She was working with corn, which was more difficult. As she watched the seeds in her hands increase in number, she couldn't help but smile, her mouth stretching from ear to ear.

The two of them thought they were doing it without anyone noticing, but they didn't know that everything they did was already being watched closely by several pairs of eyes in the darkness.

Seeing their backpacks filled with more and more things, Dadong narrowed his eyes and raised his hand: "Let's go! We can close the net now!"

Several people suddenly appeared in front of the man and woman like heavenly soldiers. The sudden appearance of several figures frightened the two of them so much that they shouted loudly: "Ah~ Ghosts..."

Dadong sneered, "You two-legged rat, you are so timid, why are you still learning how to steal!" The two servants stepped forward quickly and twisted the two men's hands behind their backs in an instant.
