Siheyuan: The happy life of a little chef

It has been two days since Hong Jianguo was beaten. Bang Geng was in a good mood during these two days. However, he suddenly became unhappy after hearing a piece of news today.

It turns out that if you follow Gou Ge and the others to steal things, you should give them a portion of the stolen money, but Bang Geng is timid and doesn't dare to steal things.

In the past three months, Banggeng has only been learning how to pick locks and training his eyesight. In this regard, Banggeng can be said to be a genius. Now no one can pick locks faster than him. Moreover, when entering a house, Banggeng can tell at a glance where money is hidden.

Even though he has such a great ability, Bang Geng doesn't dare to steal money. In the past, he only stole some food. Now, Gou Ge has begun to force Bang Geng to steal money. He is a little afraid of Gou Ge. He trembles when he thinks of what Gou Ge said, "Bang Geng, we have avenged you. Now you should help us, but I don't think you have this intention. What? Do you want to destroy the bridge after crossing it? Unless you are not afraid of death."

Banggeng felt listless all day today, so he simply took a leave and went home.

But as soon as she got home, Zhang Cuihua started nagging.

"Bang Geng, why did you ask for leave today? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want grandma to take you to the hospital?"

Banggeng was so annoyed that he stood up and yelled.

"I'm so annoyed. Can't you let me rest for a while? I'm going to Shazhu's house to sleep for a while."

After saying that, he ignored Zhang Cuihua and went straight into Sha Zhu's house and lay on Sha Zhu's bed.

I don’t know if it’s because he was disabled, but Shazhu is now cute and clean, and takes care of himself meticulously.

Banggeng suddenly sat up and instinctively looked around the room, his eyes finally falling on the bricks at the head of the bed.

There was something obviously wrong with this brick. There was a tiny crack, and Bang Geng could tell at a glance that this was a good place to hide money.

So Banggeng carefully pulled out the brick and found a large paper bag inside. After taking it out and opening it, he found so much money in it.

Banggeng's breathing became a little rapid. He thought that if he had the money, he wouldn't have to go out and steal. Anyway, Shazhu liked him so much that he wouldn't tell him even if he knew.

Banggeng was afraid that if he took too much, he would be discovered by Shazhu, so he only took ten yuan and then put it back.

After handling it, Banggeng went straight out the door to find Gouge.

"Brother Gou, I stole ten dollars today."

After saying that, he took out the money.

Brother Gou is very happy.

"Boy, you finally got it. But the family you stole from is too poor, right? It's only ten dollars, but it's a good start."

Bang Geng could only smile along.

"Yeah, that family is so poor. Next time I'll find a rich family."

Dog brother nodded.

"Be careful about everything. Our rule here is that if you steal money, each person gets half. I'll give the five dollars to Brother Huazi for you later, and the other five dollars are yours. How about that? Is that okay for you two?"

Banggeng didn't expect that he could earn five dollars. This is a huge sum of money. He said gratefully.

"Thank you, Brother Gou. You are so kind. I will try my best."

Dog brother nodded.

"Bang Geng, I was right about you, you have a future."

In the midst of constant boasting, Banggeng gradually lost himself and became more and more courageous.

But there was one thing that Gou Ge didn't tell Bang Geng. They paid once a week, and everyone knew that it was impossible to steal money every day. Gou Ge felt that there was no need to tell Bang Geng. He would naturally know when he couldn't steal money, and he didn't want to discourage Bang Geng's enthusiasm.

But Banggeng didn't know, so he ran back every noon to steal Shazhu's money.

The first time it was ten dollars, then it increased and increased, and now he starts stealing fifty at a time.

Seeing that so much money was missing, Bang Geng was a little panicked, but he didn't dare to resist because he saw how badly Hong Jianguo was beaten.

Over ten days later, Banggeng had stolen nearly six hundred yuan from Shazhu.

It was payday, and Sha Zhu went home happily after getting his pay. He planned to put the money in the account, leaving just ten dollars for buying things.

But when he took out the money, he felt something was wrong; it was obviously much thinner.

Sha Zhu opened it and counted it nervously. There was only 520 yuan, so he started to calculate immediately.

"1360 yuan, 250 yuan for the car, there should be 1110 yuan left, but there is only 520 yuan, 590 yuan less."

After the calculation, Sha Zhu's forehead was covered with cold sweat, so he opened the door and shouted.

"Oh no! There's a thief. There's a thief in our compound."

Sha Zhu's voice was very loud, and soon a lot of people came.

Yi Zhonghai asked.

"Zhu Zi, what happened? What was stolen from you?"

Sha Zhu quickly took it out.

"I originally had 1360 yuan at home. Ten days ago, when the rain came back, I bought her a bicycle for 250 yuan. I should have 1110 yuan left, but now I only have 520 yuan left, 590 yuan less."

Yan Bugui took a breath of cold air.

"So many? Silly Zhu, are you remembering it wrong?"

Sha Zhu quickly shook his head.

"No, I've counted them all. I got my salary today and wanted to put it in, but when I came back I found the money was wrong. Is there a thief in our yard?"

Xu Damao sneered.

"Silly Zhu, are you putting all this money together?"

Sha Zhu didn't understand and nodded.

"Yes what's the matter?"

Xu Damao laughed.

"I call you Shazhu, but you are really stupid. Have you ever seen a thief steal money and leave half for you?"

Sha Zhu didn't react, but Yan Bugui reacted first.

"Da Mao, you mean the thief in the house?"

Xu Damao nodded.

"I wouldn't dare to steal all of it at once and leave it there. I wouldn't believe it if it wasn't done by a thief."

Yi Zhonghai said.

"The pillar, could it be rain water?"

In fact, Yi Zhonghai already had a suspect, but he still led everyone to He Yushui.

Sha Zhu denied.

"Impossible. This money was given to me by Yu Shui. If she wants it, she can just tell me directly. There's no need to steal it."

Everyone guessed that this money was probably paid by Yi Zhonghai.

Yan Bugui analyzed.

"There are only a few people who can freely enter and exit Sha Zhu's house without arousing suspicion. If it's not Yu Shui, then it must be Zhang Cuihua and Bang Geng."

Zhang Cuihua cursed hurriedly.

"Yan Laokou, you are talking nonsense. I have never taken any money from Shazhu, and it is even more impossible for Banggeng. Why would he need so much money? He is still a child."

However, Zhang Cuihua's eyes were a little vague, because she found that Banggeng would go to Shazhu's house every noon. It might be Banggen who did it, but she couldn't admit it, otherwise there would be a big problem.

Xu Damao said loudly.

"What's so difficult about that? We just need to wait for Bang Geng to come back and confront him. By the way, where's Bang Geng? He hasn't come back yet?"

Sha Zhu now has to suspect Bang Geng, because only Bang Geng would leave some money after stealing it, and maybe he didn't steal much each time. If it was Zhang Cuihua, it would probably be all gone the first time. This is a blessing in disguise.

"I'll wait for Bang Geng to come back and ask him. It would be best if it wasn't him. Then I'll report it to the police."

Zhang Cuihua secretly stepped back. She wanted to tell Bang Geng immediately and make him never admit it even if he was beaten to death. However, she was discovered by Xu Damao just after taking two steps back.

"Aunt Zhang, where are you going? Are you trying to tip off Bang Geng?"

Zhang Cuihua stood there in a daze, stammering.

"I, I, I'm going to the bathroom. Why can't I go to the bathroom?"

Yan Bugui smiled.

"Second Aunt and Third Aunt, accompany her to the toilet and don't let her tip off Bang Geng."

Yi Zhonghai wanted to say something, but gave up. Now his relationship with Sha Zhu was not enough to support him in defending Bang Geng, so he could only worry.

If it is confirmed that Bang Geng stole it, then how can he use Bang Geng to get along well with Sha Zhu? Wouldn't he have married Zhang Cuihua in vain, which is a huge loss!
