Reborn in ancient times: I will make my family rich

"What's missing?" Jiang Nan hurriedly stepped forward and asked if there was the quilt she had just made at home!

"Sister, there's no food left at home."

"Is the quilt still there?" Jiang Nan asked hurriedly, thinking about the quilt he had just made. He had almost finished the food and there was not much left.

"exist."

It's okay, the quilt is much more expensive than food.

The village head was standing next to Jiang Nan and heard the conversation between the three people clearly.

"I'll go back with you." The head of the village said, fearing that there was a thief in the village.

"Wait for me here," he said, and walked towards the group of people working not far away.

"Everyone stop what you are doing, and go back to the village. I have something to tell you."

Stealing can be a big or small matter, and right now is the most difficult time for every household.

Everyone followed the headman back to the village. Some people in the village looked at the huge group of people returning and talked about why they all came back when it was not even evening yet.

The head of the village first followed Jiang Nan back to the room to confirm the lost items, which were some rice and flour, and half a can of lard. Even the lard can was stolen.

Jiang Nan looked at the lost things and already had a suspicion in his mind.

The village is located at the innermost part of the mountain. No one lives beyond the mountain. People from other villages usually don't come here except to visit relatives.

"Uncle Lizheng, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not."

"You said."

"I am usually polite to the people in the village. I only had conflicts with Ergou's family. But I can't be sure if it was their family. I am just guessing."

"Yes," the head of the village responded.

Jiang Nan knew that the head of the village also had an idea in his mind, otherwise he would not have brought so many people back to the village in such a high-profile manner.

The village head heard Jiang Nan's words and went out to speak to everyone: "The village has suffered a disaster. Now every household in the village is in the most difficult time. Today, Miss Jiang's food was stolen."

"I was missing two sweet potatoes yesterday!"

“My family is also short of money.”

"Yeah yeah!"

After the head of the village said this, the villagers began to talk about the food they had lost during this period.

There weren't many things missing, and I originally thought I remembered it wrong.

Everyone had lost some things, and when they discussed it, they realized that the village had been robbed!

Jiang Nan looked at Ergou's family, who were cowering with their heads down not far away.

The appearance of that family further confirmed Jiang Nan's guess.

How can we expose the flaws of this family without any evidence?

"Uncle village head, I think it's hard to catch thieves, so I'll ask everyone to be more careful. Fortunately, we bought some food today, so we won't be hungry for the time being."

When he heard Jiang Nan's words, he was stunned. That was it.

Jiang Nan turned his back and winked at the head of the village.

The village head understood immediately.

"Since Miss Jiang has said so, let's go!"

"Sister, why don't we catch the thief?"

"Catching a thief requires evidence. How can we catch him without evidence? Besides, they won't steal things that we can easily find."

Jiang Nan told everyone about his plan.

After saying this, Jiang Nan took advantage of the fact that it was almost noon and the family swaggered towards the back mountain.

In fact, Jiang Nan and his family of five hid in a bush not far from their home, which was just enough to cover them.

This was a place Jiang Nan had discovered by chance while taking a shower.

The distance is not far, and you can have a clear view of the situation in the yard.

"It's so frustrating for us to catch a thief," Jiang's mother complained as soon as she opened her mouth.

"The fish will be caught soon," Jiang Nan said as he observed the situation in the yard.

It was noon now, and people were either resting in their rooms or going to the village to deal with the sludge.

There is no one outside now.

Sure enough, after a while Ergou looked around and saw that there was no one around. He waved to his eldest son and said something in his eldest son's ear.

He took his other two brothers and sneaked towards Jiang Nan's house.

"Sister, they're over there," Jiang Bei excitedly tugged at the corner of Jiang Nan's clothes.

"Calm down, now is not the time."

The three of them hadn't even entered the house yet. Their family hadn't bought anything at all, so it was enough for the three of them to rummage around for a while.

Seeing the three people enter his yard, Jiang Nan's mouth curled up, the fish was not taking the bait.

"Let's go fishing."

Ergou, who was watching over his three sons, was startled when he saw Jiang Nan and his group coming.

"Miss Jiang is back!" Ergou greeted Jiang Nan loudly, hoping that his three children would hear the voice and come out quickly.

Jiang Nan just glanced at Ergou coldly, then walked past him and quickly walked towards the room.

Ergou grabbed his messy hair, and it was all over.

"What good things are they looking for in my house?" Jiang Nan half leaned on the door frame of his house, looking at the three brothers who were searching so hard without noticing anything.

"Of course it's food, what else could it be?" Ergou's eldest son reacted after he finished speaking, and saw Jiang Nan trembling with fear.

Jiang Nan gave a look to Jiang's mother beside him.

"Come and catch the thief! Catch the thief," Jiang's mother immediately shouted at the villagers.

Father Jiang blocked the door to prevent the three from escaping.

Upon hearing the news, the villagers flocked to Jiang Nan's home.

Jiang Nan was not in a hurry to catch the three brothers. He just watched them scratching their ears and cheeks anxiously like monkeys, just like the monkeys in the zoo allowing people to watch them.

The villagers came to watch the fun, and everyone crowded forward to see who the thief was.

After the head of the village came, Jiang Nan stepped aside and let the head of the village handle the matter.

When the village head saw that the person inside was actually Ergou's third son, his face darkened.

"Pull these three out for me,"

At the same time, the village head also asked someone to call out Ergou and his wife.

"Village head, I really don't know how these three kids got here, and you kid," Ergou still looked like he knew nothing.

He raised his hand and slapped his eldest son.

Ergou's eldest son looked at Ergou in shock, with hatred in his eyes.

"That's enough," the village head shouted.

Only then did Ergou stop.

"Did you steal the things from Miss Jiang's house?"

"No, I don't know."

"You're sure you don't know." The head of the village looked at the three brothers seriously and asked again.

"do not know."

"Since you don't know, report it to the authorities. The county magistrate will naturally investigate the matter."

"Uncle Lizheng, I'm telling you, the things are buried under my house."

When the three heard what the headman said, the youngest child was the first to be unable to bear it and spoke while trembling.

The head of the village immediately sent someone to look for it, and sure enough, the thing was found.

"You are the ones who usually steal things that are lost in the village."

"Yes, I won't dare to do it again next time."

The village head looked at Er Gou who was silent, closed his eyes in disappointment, and when he opened his eyes again, he slowly said: "Now is the most difficult time for the village, and you are able to come and steal the food of the villagers. Yunzhou Village can no longer tolerate you, pack up your things and leave!"

"Village head, I will definitely teach them a lesson," Ergou panicked when he heard this.

He thought that the head of the village would at most say a few words as he did in the past, but he never expected that this time he would directly expel them from the village.
