Chapter 1019 Catching a Turtle in a Jar

Gu Meijiao couldn't help in the house, so she found a job to carry water. She had been to the countryside many times, but she had never used the old-fashioned well.

As soon as she came out of the house, she saw Chen Shuli stealing fish in a sneaky way. She threw the bucket and pointed at Chen Shuli and shouted, which scared Chen Shuli, who was guilty of being a thief, so much that she jumped up. When she turned around and saw that it was Gu Meijiao, the tension in her heart disappeared immediately, and she said to Gu Meijiao with a smirk:

"Hey, isn't this Xinyue's sister-in-law? I'm Xinyue's second aunt, and I'm here to help with cooking."

She took advantage of Gu Meijiao's young age and the fact that she was an outsider who didn't know the situation of her family. She lied without blushing, and it looked like the truth.

Gu Meijiao really believed it at first, but when she looked closely at Chen Shuli's face with a flattering smile, she blinked, thinking that this woman was one of the two people Gao Guilan beat out of the door with a big broom in the morning, and she immediately exposed her without any hesitation.

"No, I beat you out with a big broom before. You came here to steal. Take out the fish in your pocket."

"You've got the wrong person. It's not me."

Chen Shuli's heart skipped a beat. She kept her mouth shut and ran out of the door.

She couldn't bear to put back the things she got!

"Stop."

Gu Meijiao was anxious and chased out with a bucket. Zheng Changshui hid aside at first. When he saw Gu Meijiao chasing his wife, he turned around and went into Zheng Xinyue's warehouse.

Because she always had to go to the warehouse to get things for cooking, Zheng Xinyue disliked the trouble of unlocking the warehouse, and since all the people who came were family members, she didn't lock the warehouse, giving Zheng Changshui an opportunity.

"Hey, big brother is not nice. You don't give me any of these delicious foods."

Zheng Changshui saw a basket of eggs and those fine grains when he entered the warehouse. His eyes were straight. He complained that his big brother ate alone, but his subordinates were not polite.

He put the bag on the ground, and took whatever he saw, flour, noodles, eggs, bacon, and kept rummaging. Soon, the bag was full, and the old boy was so happy that his big teeth were all bared outside, and his eyes were shining with excitement.

He was too greedy. The cloth bag was full, and he was reluctant to look at the food that had not been taken away and the potatoes in the cellar. If all these foods were taken away, it would be enough for his family to eat for a whole winter.

Holding the stolen spoils, he carefully pushed open the door of the warehouse, revealing only one eye to inquire about the situation. There was no one in the yard just like before. As long as he pushed open the door and ran away quickly, this thing would be his. Zheng Changshui was so excited that he wanted to jump up. He grumbled proudly: "It's my turn to get rich, no one else!"

"Who said no one else?"

When Zheng Changshui just opened the door and was about to run away, a clear but cold voice rang out. He was so scared that he raised his head suddenly, and his mouth was limp. He stammered to Zheng Xinyue with a cold face.

"Xinxinyue, second uncle. Second uncle is here to help."

Zheng Xinyue blocked the door and caught the turtle in the jar. She looked at the cloth bag in Zheng Changshui's hand with a chill. He was really greedy. He was not afraid of being discovered for taking so many things.

Zheng Xinyue pointed her slender finger at the bag in Zheng Changshui's hand and said coldly:

"Are you here to help or steal? Did my mother beat you too lightly this morning? Do I need my third brother to teach you a lesson?"

"Xinyue, I am your uncle, why don't you know how to respect the elderly? Will your future grandfather dare to take you if he sees you?"

Zheng Changshui saw that there was only Zheng Xinyue, and he couldn't bear to put the things in his hand back, so he shamelessly began to threaten Zheng Xinyue.

"Zheng Changshui, do you have the shame to threaten the child? Put the things down."
