There are only three people living in the Xiao family now, Xiao Chengjin, Xiao Dashan and Luo Yufeng.
Xiao Chengjin can be sure that Xiao Dashan and Luo Yufeng are watching a movie on the threshing floor, and there should be no one at home.
But why did he seem to hear something moving in the kitchen
Could it be that a thief came in to steal something
Just as Xiao Chengjin was thinking about it, Su Ruanruan trotted up to him.
"Let's go!" Su Ruanruan said with a smile.
Xiao Chengjin leaned into Su Ruanruan's ear and whispered a few words, then stood up straight and said in a normal voice, "Okay, let's go back!"
The two people walked towards the gate as they spoke.
The sound of the door closing, locking, and footsteps getting farther and farther and softer until they disappeared.
In the pitch-black night, even the moon and stars were hidden, and the whole yard was shrouded in blackness.
At first glance, it was dark and nothing could be seen clearly.
I don’t know how long this silence lasted, but suddenly there was a creaking sound.
Anyone who lives on a production team knows that this is the sound made by a wooden door that has been in disrepair.
The door opened, but there was no movement.
Time passed bit by bit, and the end of the movie was getting closer and closer.
At this moment, there were slight footsteps.
Even if he couldn't see it, he could tell from the sound of his footsteps that the man was walking very quietly and cautiously.
After hearing the footsteps, Su Ruanruan turned on the flashlight in her hand and shined it in the direction of the sound.
At the same time, Xiao Chengjin also rushed towards the man from where he was.
The man didn't react at all and was caught red-handed.
Xiao Chengjin pushed him to the ground, and all the things in the man's arms were scattered on the ground.
Su Ruanruan walked over with a flashlight and looked at the things on the ground carefully before the big stone in her heart fell to the ground.
It turned out to be just a thief.
For Su Ruanruan now, people who steal things are not scary, but people who put things away are more scary.
At first glance, everything on the ground is edible.
There are everything from rice in cloth bags to snacks that children only like to eat.
No wonder he was so cautious and stole so many things!
Su Ruanruan was checking things for a while, but Xiao Chengjin had already restrained the person and lifted him up with one hand.
Su Ruanruan moved the flashlight and shined it on the man's face, trying to see who the person who stole the things was.
Ever since what happened to Xu Laosan, their production team has always been safe and sound, and nothing has been lost again.
Even though there are no patrols at night, the entire production team is still safe.
The entire commune knew that their production team had a good atmosphere.
But seeing the person in front of her, Su Ruanruan realized that sometimes, you really can't just listen to rumors.
No matter what time of year, there are always people doing petty theft.
But what Su Ruanruan didn't expect was that the person who stole the things turned out to be Shen Yanjun.
Shen Yanjun is Xiao Chengjin's cousin, the son of Xiao Chengjin's aunt Xiao Aimei. He is two years older than Xiao Chengjin and is already eighteen years old this year.
Although Su Ruanruan had not spoken much to Shen Yanjun, Xiao Aimei was married to the Third Production Brigade, and it was just a matter of time to go back to her parents' home, so the relationship between the Shen family and the Xiao family had always been good.
I never heard Xiao Chengjin say anything about Shen Yanjun before, so why would Shen Yanjun come to steal things now
