Shi Yan felt that the sky was about to fall, because he saw that the closet was empty. All the money the family earned during this period had probably been stolen. Shopkeeper Chen's balance had not yet been paid, and everything was over.

Xiao Yuchen supported Shi Yan, his face was not good, and the other brothers were a little confused.

Shi Yan knew that he couldn't be messy, so he said seriously: "Now that all the money at home is gone, I still have about fifteen taels of silver. From now on, everyone will have to save some money."

Xiao Yuchen immediately said: "I still have more than forty coins, which my previous wife gave me, but I don't spend any money."

Sang Cheng: "I still have more than 20 Wen there. I will go to the mountain soon to pick some more rattan and make baskets. I think I can sell a batch."

Wen Ci: "I also have more than a dozen articles there. Together, we will definitely be able to tide over the difficulties."

Wen Li: "I have no money. I shouldn't spend money randomly..."

Qiao Jinshu: "I only have a few coins left. If I can't do it anymore, I'll go back to my parents' house to borrow it. My mother won't care about me."

Seeing the brothers working together, Shi Yan was very pleased and said that maybe he could report it to the official to see if the lost property could be recovered. However, his wife would need to come forward, but the Song family was remote and what happened happened at night. The chance of coming back is very small.

"I'm afraid that my wife won't be able to bear this big blow, so don't talk nonsense for a while."

"yes, Sir."

The six of them arrived at the door of Changyuqiao's room, and Shi Yan whispered, "Spread out a little."

The few people walked away a little, and Shi Yan knocked on the door. Chang Yuqiao and Song Tingran woke up at the same time.

Song Tingran immediately realized that this was not her room. When she saw the Changyu Bridge again, the scenes from last night were played in her mind, and the atmosphere was a bit strange.

The sound outside the door continued.

"My wife, are you awake? Something happened at home."

As soon as they heard something happened, the two people in the house quickly put on their clothes. Song Tingran opened the door and Changyuqiao opened the window.

When Song Tingran saw everyone at the door, she knew something big must have happened and asked hurriedly: "What happened?"

"Master Wife, our family can handle anything together."

"Yeah, okay, if you can resist, please tell me something."

"The house was robbed and everything was gone."

Song Tingran was confused. Daniu Village was full of fellow villagers, and this incident of breaking into the house and stealing things had never happened before.

As he walked downstairs, he asked, "What did you throw away?"

"Family money."

Song Tingran paused. All the money in the family was in her farming space. She said nothing and returned to the main house.

The main house looked like it had been rummaged through. Song Tingran looked at the footprints on the ground and found that they did not belong to her.

"Stand back, everyone."

The husbands backed away obediently. It rained last night, leaving evidence of the thief, muddy footprints.

The footprints at the door were made by Song Tingran and the others. They were only slightly moist, but the messy footprints inside were indeed muddy.

Shi Yan blamed himself very much: "I live in the outer courtyard, and I didn't even know there was a thief in my house."

"Shi Yan, it's not your fault. Besides, the family's money has not been lost."

"Didn't you lose it?"

The husbands all looked at Song Tingran eagerly, and she said, "It's so dangerous to put so much money in the closet. I hid it, really."

In order to reassure them, Song Tingran took off his shoes and walked to the bed, turned his back, took out a stack of banknotes from the farming space, and then turned around to show them.

"Really, the money is really all there."

"That's great. My wife is so awesome."

"Yes, yes, this stupid thief is so stupid."

They were very happy and felt like they were surviving a disaster. Shi Yan called the brothers out and asked his wife to put away the money properly, but they stopped watching.

Not long after, Song Tingran walked out of the main room. Sang Cheng wanted to go in and clean up, but she stopped her and said that she would wait until the official report was completed and the evidence was collected before cleaning up.

Seeing the husbands standing in the courtyard, Song Tingran knew that it was their first time to experience such a thing, and it was inevitable that this would happen.

"Okay, it's time to cook, and it's time to pick fruits. I'll report to the official later, and then sell the fruits."

With the plan in mind, everyone took action separately. Song Tingran took advantage of this moment to go to Village Chief Zhou's house first.

Generally, when something happens in the village, the village chief will first intervene. Unless there is a life-threatening lawsuit, you can go to the government office to report it directly to the official. Song Tingran still has to go through the process to give the village chief face.

At this time, almost every household was making breakfast, including the head of Zhou Village. They were a little surprised to see Song Tingran come at this time.

There was no time to be polite, Song Tingran told Ran Zhi about what happened last night. Village Chief Zhou looked solemn and pounded the table angrily, saying: "Is there any more Wang Fa? Such a bad thing has never happened in our Daniu Village. Don't worry. , I will definitely let you make the decision."

Song Tingran believed this, but she felt uneasy and said: Village Chief Zhou, we have a horse at home, and there is a dog at the door of the fruit and vegetable garden. They bark at every sign of the wind, but there is nothing wrong with them. "

"Every door in the house is locked tightly. There are no signs of damage. The fruit is not lost, and the chickens and ducks are not lost. This thief comes just for money, and it doesn't look like it was done by people from our Daniu Village. You said, our village Who can come into my house at night without breaking the door lock?"

Song Tingran's analysis was correct, and Village Chief Zhou also thought it was reasonable. The people in the village were all simple farmers. Even if they were evil-minded, they had no courage. What's more, they really had no strength.

"Then you mean, there are special thieves?"

"Yes, and the thieves didn't find the money last night. I'm afraid they won't be reconciled and will come back, so I want to report it to the police. I still have the evidence at home."

"Okay, then go report it to the official. It's almost New Year's Day. I will tell the people in the village to lock the doors and windows at night."

After Song Tingran said this, he went home without stopping. On the way, he met Zhao Yu who was returning from a bullock cart.

"Sister Zhao, is it so early today?"

"Well, the caravan in town seemed to be holding some kind of event. If anyone wanted to watch the fun, I got up early to see them off."

The caravan, which Liu Yun had mentioned before on the day when he delivered the furniture, was still in Ping'an Town.

"Sister Zhao, can you come to my house later? I want to take the remaining apples and other things to sell in the town."

"No problem. I went home to eat. I was in a hurry when I went out in the morning, so I made up for it. Now, I'm hungry again."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll go home for dinner too, see you later."

The two agreed, and Song Tingran returned home. Just in time for breakfast to be ready, he washed his hands and sat down.

At the dinner table, Song Tingran asked worriedly: "Shi Yan, can you do it in the school by yourself? Do you want to find someone to accompany you?"

"No, I've been resting at home for several days. I haven't done any work. I'm very idle and can't stay any longer. But you, my wife, should be careful when reporting to the official."

"rest assured."
