Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Just because Shen Nanshan discovered it early enough, the two thieves in the distance were scared away by them before they could do anything. It's no wonder that the thieves were too timid. If someone discovered this, it would be inevitable. A severe beating.

Besides, Dahe Village has a good reputation for sending people to the government. It's scary to think about it. They don't want to be imprisoned.

After seeing the thieves running away, Yao Shu was also very relieved. After all, she and Shen Nanshan were no match for those thieves. If there really was a trouble, they would have to wait until the villagers came over. Disaster.

Fortunately, the other party was timid and the matter was resolved perfectly.

"Look, that direction seems to be our land. I have to go and take a look."

Even though the moonlight was very bright, what he could see was not as clear as in the daytime. Shen Nanshan was a little unsure of the direction, fearing that someone was causing trouble in his own land. If something was really stolen, it was too late for them to catch up now.

If you wait until later, you really won't be able to catch him back.

Before he could take two steps forward, he was grabbed by Yao Shu.

"Don't go there, be careful. It's dangerous. The crops in our field have been harvested a long time ago. There aren't even any weeds in the field. There's no need to worry about people stealing it."

"But if you steal sweet potatoes from other people's fields, that's even worse."

Shen Nanshan became more and more anxious as he thought about it. Their things could not be stolen.

"Old lady, don't stop me, let me go and take a look."

Yao Shu was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Shen Nanshan could think of this level. His mind was much more flexible, but she still didn't let go. No matter how much loss she might face, it was better to be cautious.

"I told you not to go, safety is the most important thing."

"you are so kind to me."

Shen Nanshan stopped struggling. He said these words coquettishly, not to mention how much he felt in his heart. Even if they were an old couple, he felt very happy.

In fact, no matter who is standing next to her today, Yao Shu will stop them.

She glanced at Shen Nanshan with some disgust. After all, she didn't say this out loud. It was just a misunderstanding. She didn't bother to explain.

After waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, someone ran out of the village. They were holding random things in their hands, including sticks, axes, brooms and other materials.

"Where is the thief?"

"If you dare to sneak into our Dahe Village, you are really overly ambitious."

"Let's see if I don't kill this little son of a bitch..."

The villagers came out aggressively, but they looked around but didn't see the thief.

"Sister-in-law Yao, where is the thief?"

"I was scared away. Which direction was it before? I had to go and see if anything was missing."

Yao Shu briefly explained the situation just now. In fact, there was nothing much to say, it just happened for a while.

Everyone hurried over with torches. Fortunately, things were just as Yao Shu suspected. The crops in the field were not harmed. They only saw a series of footprints near the field ridges.

Obviously, these thieves had plans to steal sweet potatoes, but they were unlucky and happened to be hit by Yao Shu.

"Everyone, look carefully to see if there are any stolen sweet potatoes and potatoes. Look carefully. If they are really stolen, we have to find them."

The village chief said very solemnly.

He knew the importance of sweet potatoes, that's why he was so anxious. If someone really stole them, he wouldn't know how to explain it to Yao Shu.

"Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry. I should have been more vigilant and arranged for someone to keep watch. I didn't expect them to take action so quickly."

It had only been a short time since the harvest in Dahe Village had happened, and the news had already spread outside. The people behind the scenes were a little too anxious.

Compared to the village chief who was getting angry and anxious, Yao Shu was much calmer. Everything had already happened. No matter how anxious she was, it would not help, and the loss would not be big.

The reason why she was so guarded was because she was afraid of causing trouble.

Nowadays, Dahezhuang's foundation is still too weak. It would be terrible if someone tried to do something against them. Fame and wealth can easily attract people to have bad thoughts.

"It has nothing to do with you, village chief. Don't take everything on yourself. In my opinion, they didn't catch anything. Don't be too anxious."

Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan wandered outside for a long time tonight, and they would have noticed any movement.

Since they didn't notice it, they probably didn't have time to make a move.

After everyone checked in the field, it was indeed true. The surrounding crops were all in good condition.

"Can you rest assured now?"

"Yes, yes, but sister-in-law, what are you and Brother Shan doing out at night?"

The village chief suddenly asked in confusion.

"Is it possible that you already knew that someone would come to our village to steal things?"

No wonder the village chief would ask such a question. There is not much nightlife in the countryside these days. At night, everyone lies in bed early to rest. Not to mention it is pitch black outside, and they are afraid of danger.

As for lighting lamps, that was even more impossible. They didn't have the money to waste lamp oil like this.

Facing the village chief's inquiry, Yao Shu was embarrassed and didn't know what to say. She didn't know how to explain to the village chief that she was Shen Nanshan walking outside at night.

Everyone would not understand her leisurely and elegant attitude, and they might even misunderstand that her relationship with Shen Nanshan was "excellent", and she was still very energetic despite her age.

Yao Shu smiled bitterly.

"How is it possible? It's just a collision."

She wanted to avoid mentioning the matter. After answering, she immediately said that she wanted to go home to rest late at night. Everyone stopped her. After leaving the crowd, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After what happened, everyone in Dahe Village became even more cautious about sweet potatoes and potatoes, going so far as to not allow people from outside the village to enter the village chief. There were still patrols around the fields.

As a result, many people with crooked ideas will not be able to find an opportunity to make a move.

But once a person has evil thoughts, they will not dissipate easily. If one thought cannot be achieved, other bad ideas will come up.

A dark and windy night is often the best time to make a move. This time, Yao Shu was no longer too full to sleep and needed a walk to digest. The Shen family all slept peacefully.

Outside the village of Dahezhuang, the person responsible for the night watch tonight is doing his due diligence, but it is inevitable for people to feel sleepy sometimes, especially as the night gets deeper and deeper, it becomes more difficult for people to resist sleepiness.

Lin Dafu was already yawning as he walked on the road. He glanced around and saw that it was quiet. There was no unusual movement, only the sound of insects.

He couldn't help but sit down in the open space of the field and leaned on the tree trunk. His eyelids fluttered for a while, and finally he fell asleep directly.
