Siheyuan: Picked up by a goddess in 48 years

After everyone comes back from get off work, the yard becomes lively.

"Mom, where did you get this cuttlefish?" When Jia Dongxu returned home and saw the food on the table, his eyes lit up and he couldn't help but ask.

"Mom picked it up, eat it while it's hot."

Jia Zhang spoke without hesitation.

When Jia Dongxu heard this, he already knew where this thing came from, but he didn't care.

"One for each person, for dinner." Jia Dongxu said.

Jia Zhang didn't say anything when she heard this. After all, she was a new daughter-in-law and they were hoping to give birth to a big fat boy for their Jia family, so it was better for her to eat something good.

Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu each picked up a cuttlefish and put it in their bowls. Just as Jia Dongxu was about to eat it, he saw that his wife didn't move her chopsticks.

"Huai Ru, why don't you eat?"

"Ah, Dongxu, I have never seen this thing and I dare not eat it. You and mom can eat it." Qin Huairu was telling the truth. Although she made this thing, she had never seen it before. She just sprinkled salt and added a few drops of soy sauce and cooked it according to what Jia Zhang said.

According to Jia Zhang, it can be eaten once it is cooked, but she really didn't dare to eat something she had never seen before.

Moreover, she was also very suspicious about the origin of these things. Jia Zhang had gone out for a while before, and when she came back, she had three cuttlefish in her arms. She guessed that they might not have come from a legitimate source.

"You don't have the good fortune to enjoy this dish. After all, you are a country girl." Jia Zhang snorted.

"mom!"

Jia Dongxu was somewhat unhappy to see his wife being scolded.

Jia Zhang didn't know what to say and started eating.

"Puff~bang!"

"Puff~bang!"

After two consecutive muffled sounds, accompanied by the sound of some liquid spraying, the Jia family's dining table was completely silent.

Qin Huairu had just lowered her head to eat when she heard a noise and felt something pouring on her head. She looked up and was immediately frightened and cried out "Oh my God!"

Everything I saw was pitch black. My husband and mother-in-law's faces and bodies were all covered in black. The entire dining table and ceiling were covered in black, as if they had been splashed with ink.

"Dongxu?"

Qin Huairu called out softly.

"Uh-huh."

Jia Dongxu was also shocked by the pitch-black darkness just now, and only came to his senses when he heard his wife calling him.

Looking at his mother opposite him with her face and body covered in black, Jia Dongxu knew that his condition was probably not much better.

"Mom, look at this, it's all over the place."

Jia Zhang was speechless. After taking a bite, she felt something splashing out uncontrollably. What could she do?

"Don't talk about me, you are the same!"

"Dongxu, Mom, why don't you guys wash up first and eat later." Qin Huairu said, glancing at the dark dining table. It should be... still edible, right?

Jia Dongxu nodded and said, "Huai Ru, go get a basin of water. Mom and I will be laughed at if we go out like this."

Qin Huairu obediently went to fetch water.

Jia Dongxu went to wash first, while Jia Zhang continued to eat because she felt that the black stuff tasted good.

"ah!"

Jia Dongxu was washing his face when he suddenly heard his wife's scream.

"What's wrong? What are you shouting for?"

"Dongxu, you, this black stuff seems to be impossible to wash off."

Jia Dongxu was stunned for a moment, then he rubbed it vigorously a few more times, "What about now?"

"No, it's still black. The color hasn't faded at all."

Jia Dongxu became flustered upon hearing this...

[Ding Dong! Received 10 points of crash value from Jia Dongxu. ]

[Ding Dong! Received 10 points of crash value from Zhang Daya. ]

After hearing the system's prompt, Lu Zhenyuan knew who stole his cuttlefish, but he was a little curious why Qin Huairu was not there?

"I'm done eating, Sister Wanyi, I'm going out for a while,"

Lu Zhenyuan put down his bowl and chopsticks. He had to call the police to catch the thief.

"Be careful!" Knowing what he was going to do, Lu Wanyi was not too worried. She didn't think there was anything wrong with having a responsible and independent man at home.

She was used to seeing extra things in the house when she came home from get off work. This cheap brother always brought her some surprises.

Lu Zhenyuan stood up and rubbed Xiao Yuyan's head, "Eat less snacks before meals in the future."

Xiao Yuyan pouted and nodded. The rice smelled delicious, but she couldn't eat it anymore. Ugh~

After leaving the house, Lu Zhenyuan went to the north of the room and pushed Aunt Mei's bicycle away. After all, it was troublesome to push it out of the storage room, so he left Aunt Mei's bicycle outside to save trouble.

When I arrived at the duty room of the Public Security Bureau, I directly said that I was calling the police and explained the situation clearly.

The Public Security Bureau immediately dispatched police.

Not long after, Lu Zhenyuan returned to Courtyard No. 95 with two police officers.

"Lao Yan!"

After entering the yard, Lu Zhenyuan shouted to Yan Bugui's house, which immediately attracted all the neighbors in the yard.

When Yan Bugui came out of the house, he saw two police officers behind Lu Zhenyuan. He was shocked. He didn't expect that this little Lu had made such a big fuss that the police were called in.

"Old Yan, I have already explained the matter clearly to the police comrades. Just tell them what you saw." Lu Zhenyuan and Yan Bugui informed him and then looked at the neighbors who were attracted out of the yard.

"Everyone, listen up! There's a thief in our yard. I hung three cuttlefish in the yard this afternoon, and they were stolen in broad daylight! Fortunately, our teacher Yan saw who stole it."

"That's why I asked the police to help me. Let's see who the thief is later. Be careful next time. Today he stole from my house, but tomorrow he might steal something from someone else's house!"

As soon as the call came out, the whole courtyard was in an uproar.

"This must be Comrade Yan Bugui, please tell us truthfully what you saw. We will never tolerate this kind of theft and will resolutely give the people peace!" Chai San stood up and said loudly.

"Okay! Well said!"

"Yes, Old Yan, tell me, who is the thief?"

There was a burst of applause in the compound, and at the same time, some people were worried that the matter would not get out of hand, so they urged Yan Bugui to hurry up.

Yan Bugui was in a dilemma and had to speak up. He said, "It was the old lady from the Jia family in the middle courtyard. I was looking into the courtyard when I saw the old lady from the Jia family steal Xiao Lu's fish and take it back home."

"It's Jia Zhang!"

"Humph, this Jia Zhang has shifty eyes, she is indeed a thief!"

The neighbors immediately started discussing it.

"Comrade, I will take you to find Jia Zhang." Lu Zhenyuan glanced at those guys. They were all clamoring, but no one stood up. He could only lead the way himself.

Suddenly a group of people walked towards the central courtyard.

The people in the Intermediate Court didn't know what was going on. When they saw a group of people coming, including the police, they thought something big had happened and left the house one after another.

"This is the Jia family."

Lu Zhenyuan pointed at the tightly closed door of the Jia family and said, "I guess they closed the door because they were afraid of being seen while eating."

The Jia family naturally heard the noise as well. They saw a group of people outside through the window, including the police. Jia Zhang's heart suddenly skipped a beat and she became panicked.

"We are the police, open the door!" Chai San went forward and knocked on the door.

I only heard a flurry of movement in the room, and then the door slowly opened, and Qin Huairu appeared at the door.

"Comrade Public Security, is there anything wrong?" Qin Huairu looked a little unnatural and a little aggrieved. She did not come out voluntarily, but was pushed out by her mother-in-law and husband.
