In the end, because they were protecting Sifeng, the two sisters were not spared and were punched once or twice in the chaos.

Bangchui raised his hurt hand and said with disgust: "You are such a hard-hearted bastard. You made my hand hurt. Don't talk nonsense at work tomorrow, or you will be in trouble."

Sifeng huddled in a corner, hugged the two sisters, looked them up and down, and asked worriedly, "Lian'er, where are you hurt?"

"No~"

The two sisters were afraid that their mother would worry, so even though they felt pain, they did not dare to say a word.

"Brother Bangchui~"

At this time, a man's voice sounded outside the door. Bangchui glared at Sifeng fiercely, and then walked out. Looking at his back, Sifeng's eyes gradually became cold.

If it were in the past, she would have just blamed herself for having a bad fate, but what her second sister-in-law said to her today made her want to refuse to accept her fate for the first time.

Bangchui walked out, only to find that it was Wang Erlai. He said unhappily, "It's so dark, why are you looking for me instead of staying at home?"

Wang Erlai saw Bangchui's playful smile and said, "Brother Bangchui, I heard that you went to work. I want you to take me with you so that I can have a meal."

Bangchui stretched out his hand and said, "Stop, it's such a tiring job. I won't go even if you ask me to do it."

Wang Erlai looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he pulled him aside and said, "Brother Bangchui, I heard that Shen Ping received a hundred taels of gold as a reward from the emperor."

"Yeah, why~"

At this point, Bangchui Lungdou's eyes sparkled, and he suddenly realized, "Oh~ you kid, don't you have any plans?"

"Brother Bangchui, you know~" Wang Erlai said with a meaningful look on his face.

Bangchui shook his head and waved his hands, saying, "Don't, Erlai, this is a reward from the Emperor. If you steal it, you might get beheaded. I advise you not to think about it."

Huang Erlai looked at Bangchui with interest, as if he didn't know him: "Brother Bangchui, I'm not afraid of you, so why should you be afraid? Besides, even if you are caught, Shen Ping is still your relative. Are you still afraid that she will hand you over to the authorities?

Besides, if we are careful and think long-term, everything will be fine."

Not to mention, thinking of the glittering gold, Bangchui also felt itchy. Besides, the hundred taels of gold were so much, it wouldn't be too much for them to spend two of them, and the two of them immediately hit it off.

Because Wang Erlai would come to see Bangchui on ordinary nights, He didn't take it seriously this time.

The two of them whispered for a long time at the door, and finally Bangchui went back to the house and lay down early.

When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, a cat's meow was heard outside the window. Bangchui turned his head and looked. In the darkness, Sifeng was lying curled up on the side, breathing evenly.

Lian'er and Cui'er slept on the small bed beside them.

"Meow~meow~"

The cat's meowing outside the window started again. Bangchui tiptoed out of bed, opened the door gently and walked out.

Wang Erlai was squatting in the corner, watching Bangchui come out. Without saying a word, he raised his hand and walked ahead.

The two walked in tacit understanding, one in front and one behind. They had discussed it beforehand. It was the hour of the Ox, when everyone was sleeping soundly. The chances of success were higher if they chose this time.

After passing the boundary of Kaoshan Village, Bangchui walked in front because he was more familiar with the terrain.

Bangchui carefully recalled the incident of the gold that day. He remembered that Erya took the gold and took it into her room.

I had been into that house before. I took advantage of the fact that there were many people around and looked around. The mother and her two daughters each had a room, and there was an empty room, which was probably used to store things. I wonder if what they were looking for was in there.

Bangchui knew that Shen Ping had many servants, so he took a look around that day and found that the servants' rooms were concentrated in the backyard.

Because the gate was locked, they chose to climb the wall. Coincidentally, there was a pile of stones beside the wall, probably left over from when the wall was being built.

The two climbed over the wall one in front and crawled in. They sneaked to the corner.

Shenyang heard the noise and became alert.

He had never felt safe since he was a child, because in the deep palace, there was always intrigue and deception. He even dared not sleep soundly at night. He had never slept well since he was a child.

In addition, he was a martial artist, and the unique alertness of a martial artist made him particularly sensitive, and he would be awakened by the slightest sound.

Moreover, his body has not fully recovered yet, and now he can relax completely here, and sometimes he rests more during the day, and naturally sleeps less at night.

The door was locked. Wang Erlai picked the keyhole and the door opened with a click.

"Someone~"

Although the sound was subtle, Shen Ping still woke up, immediately became alert, and opened her eyes in the darkness.

Because she used to be a killer, Shen Ping has a strong sense of self-protection and alertness, so when she has this awareness, her body has already reacted.

Because she was wearing a tight-fitting inner garment to sleep, Shen Ping got up and grabbed a piece of clothing. She instantly reached the door with her ear against it.

Seeing that the lock was successfully opened, Wang Erlai was quiet for a few seconds and listened carefully. Seeing that there was no other movement, he gently turned the door handle and walked in.

After a long while, seeing that Bangchui did not follow in, he stuck his head out the door and waved.

It can be said that Bangchui was a thief who had the desire but not the courage. When Wang Erlai opened the lock, he stood by to keep watch. He was so scared that his feet were shaking.

Although he was just spreading the news, he still had a little plan in mind. In case Wang Erlai was caught in a trap, he would have to sneak away.

Seeing Wang Erlai successfully unlock the door and go in, Bangchui peeked at the flower bed, wanting to see the situation clearly before deciding whether to go in.

Now seeing Wang Erlai waving at him, Bangchui tiptoed in.

When he heard the footsteps, Shenyang listened carefully and found that the footsteps were from the next door. He had already quietly opened the door and followed the two people under the cover of night.

From the very beginning, Shen Yang thought that they were people chasing him, but now that he saw the two of them clearly, he felt relieved.

From the way these two people are dressed we can tell they are probably from farming families. From their behavior we can tell they don't know any kung fu and it's obvious they are here to make money.

Watching the two people go in, Shenyang sat down on the flower bed beside him calmly. He pulled out a dogtail grass and put it in his mouth to chew.

After the two of them went in, they pointed out the utility room with the help of their memory stick. They tiptoed to the door, tried it out, and found that it was not locked. They were immediately delighted.

Shen Ping listened to the footsteps and judged that there should be two people. The footsteps stopped at the door of the utility room.

Shen Ping then remembered that Dachun had told her that the gold was kept in the utility room, but later he was too busy and forgot about it.

It's true that I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, but I'm afraid of thieves eyeing it. I even forgot about it, and I didn't expect that the gold was targeted by someone with ulterior motives.

Shen Ping raised the corners of her mouth. She didn't expect these two to be so bold that they even coveted the gold bestowed by the emperor. Then she would do as he wished. Besides, a thief must take the stolen goods.
