Chapter 22 There are good people in the yamen

Zhu Kuang and Qiao Qianping joined forces and followed the clues. There were not many people in Lijiazhuang, and there were only a dozen households in total, so it was easy to investigate.

The two of them spent little time and found the lost sheep in the woodshed of a family in Lijiazhuang.

It turns out that this is not someone else's house, but there is a famous lazy man named Li Er in Lijiazhuang.

Speaking of Li Er, he is also a famous person in the surrounding villages. He is a habit of being idle and not doing serious business on weekdays.

A few years ago, I was able to live by relying on my parents to support me, but three years ago, my father and his wife were gone, leaving only Li Er, and life became increasingly difficult.

In a life alone, the whole family should not be hungry if they are full, but Li Er, a young and young man, can't even eat alone. He can't eat every day. He eats a little while when he has it, and he is not hungry.

Later, I was so hungry that I started stealing chickens and dogs, watching someone’s family, and finding ways to steal some food and money for two meals. Even if I steal chickens and ducks, I would eat them with a torch and light them.

However, when you reach a certain age, you will understand the things between men and women. You also want a wife. You can dream of a beautiful young wife living together at a sky-high price.

But who doesn’t know about Li Er’s reputation? Isn’t it ruined for life with him in my whole life?

Who can marry a good girl to him? Not to mention that she is the beautiful, fair and honest person, even if she is a crooked person, she is unwilling to betroth him.

Later, for some reason, Li Er actually hooked up with a little widow in Wujiawan next door. The little widow is in her twenties and has three children.

A widow with three children is not easy. When Li Er had some good things, he took it to please the little widow and slept for the night.

After a while, after a long period of entanglement, the young widow became pregnant.

Now, the Wu family, the husband's family, who had originally turned a blind eye, did not pretend to be invisible.

If the little widow was given to the pond, no one would care about the three children, and the people in the Wu family would not have the kindness to control other people's children.

After much discussion, the Wu family proposed two conditions: one was to let Li Er marry into the Wu family, and the other was to let Li Er take out a betrothal gift of two taels of silver.

Li Er didn't think it was anything about getting married, but it was difficult for Li Er to take out a betrothal gift of two taels of silver. He lived for nearly thirty years in vain. How could he take out two taels of silver? Not to mention two taels of silver, he couldn't even take out two coins of silver.

But, does he dare to say no?

Don't dare.

The Wu family is a big family, and there are not many other people, but there are many males. If he dares not agree, the Wu family can kill him immediately.

Besides, the Wu family's requirements are really not high, but two taels of silver are not much higher than ordinary families. The reason why the Wu family only needs two taels is because the Wu family knows that Li Er has no extra silver, and two taels of silver is also free. Just so someone helps to take care of the three children of the little widow.

It is impossible for Li Er to find a young girl, so he doesn't dislike the widow. He also thinks that the young widow is a lover of others and it's good to live together.

Therefore, he began to get two taels of silver.

After searching for two days, Li Er focused on those families who were not in their prime.

Such a family can steal when they enter the door and even if they are caught, they can escape. If there are strong laborers at home and are caught, it will be fatal.

In the nearby villages, there are not many families with strong laborers at home. Some families with no strong laborers at home are poor and poorer than him. Even if they go to look for it, they can't touch anything.

In the old man Wang's family, there are only three young and old people, no strong laborers, but there is a big fat sheep.

In Li Er's eyes, such a family is of course the best choice. He set his sights on the big fat sheep from Old Man Wang's house.

A sheep can get a lot of money back. If you find one or two houses, you will definitely get two taels of money.

Li Er was very proud and felt that he could live a good life with his wife and children in the future. Even if the child is not his own, then it is a child?

When he passes, wouldn’t he call him dad?

Who knew that before the beautiful dream was finished, in a blink of an eye, he was arrested by the people in the yamen.

Li Er is also a smart person. He knew that after it rained, the ground was wet. When he walked over, he thought that he would leave footprints and be caught.

So, after he stole the sheep, he carried a big fat sheep and returned to Lijiazhuang.

I thought that this would not be discovered.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Kuang saw the problem on several fresh sheep dung eggs, and followed the clues and found him.

Until he was sent to the yamen, Li Er was also very confused. He had never heard that the people in the yamen were so idle!

Speaking of which, Li Er was unlucky. Originally, the yamen usually ignored such matters and left them to the local patriarch for their care.

The patriarch of a large village household has another identity, that is, the village chief and others, who control everything in the local area.

Such small things like stealing are usually impossible to detect.

However, Old Man Wang was so sad that he didn't go to find the patriarch of Wangguan Village, but went straight to the yamen after a fever.

If it was normal, the yamen would say that such a thing would be solved directly in the village. Then we know that this happened to happen that Zhu Kuang checked the account on this day and needed to be cooled down. Master Du didn't want Zhu Kuang to continue checking the account, so he asked Qiao Qianping to take Zhu Kuang out for a while.

Of course, Master Du didn't think that this matter could be found out.

Unexpectedly, these two young men are really good at observing skills, so they really do this as a matter.

However, it took more than half a day to find the sheep.

Old Man Wang led the sheep he lost and regained, and was grateful to Zhu Kuang and Qiao Qianping, and knelt on the ground with tears in his face, wanting to kowtow to the two of them to thank them.

This is the life of his whole family. His last hope. If he hadn't met these two good ones, he would definitely not have been able to find them back.

Of course, Zhu Kuang and Qiao Qianping refused to accept it. He asked an old man to kowtow to him and thank him, but he would have a life-long life.

Moreover, Zhu Kuang himself is a modern soul, so he naturally cannot accept such a gift. He quickly helped Old Man Wang up and asked him to lead his sheep home earlier. He also said something like waking up when he went to bed in the future.
