Siheyuan: The farm in my mind is in your hands.

"I saw him by the moat that day. He was a happy young man."

Old Cai pedaled his tricycle panting and finally reached the entrance of the alley.

"Moat? Why would he run there?"

Chen Jianghe had a bad feeling. Would Dongxu let himself fall? Oh my God!

Did he forget that he still has a mother and two children at home who need to be fed?

"Fishing! What else can he do? But he seems to come up empty-handed a lot.

Someone even brought him lunch at noon! Jia Dongxu's life was so good. "

Old Cai looked down upon Jia Dongxu's behavior. He already had a wife, but he didn't know how to cherish her and instead sent her to the workshop to do rough work.

There are old and young people in the family, but he doesn't work hard to earn money to support his family. Instead, he spends his time fishing.

This is typical of being ungrateful!

Why does God make good people cry and mediocre people decadent...

Old Cai didn’t understand. All he could do was keep a close eye on Xu Huizhen and look forward to the day when that would come.

However, his skills were not good enough, and he had to rely on Chen Jianghe's help to take down the fortress.

"S~ My brother Dongxu is lacking motivation, this is not acceptable.

Lao Cai, where does he usually go fishing?

He might go and have a look some other day, maybe he could even get a takeaway meal from Dongxu Brothers.

As they were talking, they arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

As planned, Lao Cai quickly removed the wheels, but after thinking about it, he realized there was no place to hide them, so he tied them directly to the chassis of the tricycle.

Unless you turn the car over or lie on the ground to look, you generally won't be able to find it.

"..."

Chen Jianghe was also speechless. Old Cai was really playing tricks on him and was too lazy to even change places.

After dinner, I guess all the tricycle riders who went to work or school have returned.

Chen Jianghe took Duoduo to the central courtyard to chat. It has been a long time since he last interacted with the aunties, and they must not forget him.

Now that I'm not busy anymore, I have to make up for it, otherwise it would be so boring in this compound.

Humans are social animals and they all need to integrate into social life and realize their own value to be meaningful.

"Hey? Chen Jianghe, are you home?!"

Mrs. Chen, who was among the group of aunties, saw Xiao Duoduo at a glance. Who else could be following behind the child if not Chen Jianghe.

"Sister Chen, long time no see, I missed you so much!"

Chen Jianghe has long been a peer of the aunties, and no one minds if she is called sister. Who would like to be called auntie?

Besides, when Chen Jianghe calls her sister, others feel that they are still young and in a good mood.

"That's right, I've been missing you! Come on, the stool has been left for you."

Mrs. Chen happily stood up from the crowd, enjoying the moment of being in the spotlight and showing her face.

"Chen Jianghe, where have you been? I haven't seen you for such a long time."

Jia Zhang also asked the same question.

She had no money to buy noodles today. Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai sent her five kilograms of noodles before dark, otherwise the family would have gone hungry.

Just before she left, Qin Huairu and Dongxu were still looking for the money they had put under the pottery jar that morning...

She had searched everywhere she could find it, but it was definitely not there.

"Hi, I was away from home and just got back today.

Look, I came here right after dinner. Jia Zhang, how have you been recently?"

Chen Jianghe did not forget that this cloth shoe master provided him with shoes specially, and the pair of shoes he was wearing now were made by Jia Zhang.

"Okay, it's fine!"

Just as Jia Zhang was about to ask something, she suddenly saw Lao Cai rushing in from outside. Looking at his appearance, if one didn't know, one would think that there was a dog chasing him.

"Something happened! There were thieves!"

"Everyone, come out quickly! Brother Chen, where are you?"

As agreed, Lao Cai went outside for a walk first. When Chen Jianghe almost arrived at the Intermediate Courtyard, he rushed in and called for help.

"No, Lao Cai, I've been here the whole time. What do you mean by thieves? It's not appropriate to throw dirty water on others."

Chen Jianghe sat steadily on Mrs. Chen's small stool without moving his butt.

"No, I'm not saying you're a thief, it's my car that was robbed!"

Old Cai shouted in panic.

When everyone heard that Lao Cai’s tricycle had been thieved, they were shocked.

If a large item is stolen, it will be recorded once you report it to the police.

There hasn't been a thief in the Siheyuan for many years. We can't let this incident affect their selection as an advanced courtyard at the end of the year!

"There's such a thing? Then I have to go check it out!"

Chen Jianghe stood up suddenly, and he looked as if he had just heard the news.

Seeing this, the other middle-aged ladies followed and decided to go and see the crime scene.

Led by Chen Jianghe, a group of people came to the gate of the courtyard and saw Lao Cai's tricycle lying on the ground.

The two rear wheels were missing...

Chen Jianghe was stunned for a moment and quickly glanced in the direction of Lao Cai.

Seeing this, Lao Cai nodded heavily, indicating that he had received the signal!

But this time he really misunderstood what he meant. Chen Jianghe didn't expect that Lao Cai was so cruel that he directly removed two wheels...

"Look! My tricycle was parked here nicely, but someone took off two of its wheels!

Isn't this delaying my earning money? If this matter can't be explained, I will report it to the police!"

Old Cai looked around and saw that the aunties were all amazed. Who was so bold as to remove both wheels at once?

Why didn’t the thief steal the entire car? That would have made things easier!

"No, don't be impulsive, Old Cai, this matter concerns the reputation of our compound and the year-end selection.

I think we should hold a meeting of the whole institute to let everyone pay attention. Maybe there is no outsider who did this!"

Chen Jianghe gave some advice, and at the same time, he also felt sorry for the thief in his heart.

Originally, the compensation would have been thirty yuan, but now it can't be solved without sixty yuan.

Sixty yuan is two months’ salary for an ordinary worker!

"That's right, Lao Cai, you can't ruin our compound's evaluation just because of an impulse."

"Then hold a general meeting. If it was really done by our compound, we will have them return the things to you."

The aunts all agreed with Chen Jianghe's words that making a big deal out of a small matter is the best solution.

Otherwise, once the news that there is a thief in their compound spreads, all the residents will be ashamed, and if they go out, others may accuse them of coming out of a den of thieves.

"Okay then! I'll listen to Brother Chen."

After Lao Cai finished speaking, he looked at Chen Jianghe, meaning that now that everything has been said, let's call everyone to a meeting!

When he came back from outside, he found that the wheel on the other side was also gone. He immediately thought that Brother Chen might be trying to make a big move.

The second time the wheel was lost, it really had nothing to do with Chen Jianghe. Both of them thought it was done by the other, but there were too many people around and they couldn't talk in private.

"Okay, Auntie, please go back and tell my uncle.

The rest of us will go back and inform our neighbors, and we will hold a general meeting in the Central Courtyard in half an hour.

Lao Cai, go and talk to Uncle One and Uncle Two about this in person."

After Chen Jianghe finished making the arrangements, he took Duoduo home. The child was already asleep.
