Chapter 76 A thief broke into the backyard
Ning Huaizhi also heard the footsteps in the backyard at this time. He was worried that the poultry in the backyard would be stolen, so he quickly put on his clothes, picked up the slingshot, and asked Jiang Yuwei to help him into the wheelchair. Jiang Yuwei took the dagger she used for self-defense and pushed Ning Huaizhi's wheelchair to the backyard.
In the moonlight, he saw that a section of the stone wall in his backyard had collapsed. Looking into the yard, he saw a dark shadow circling around the bricks and tiles that had been brought in in the evening.
Jiang Yuwei hurriedly lit the lanterns in the backyard, while Ning Huaizhi shouted:
"Who dares to break into my backyard?"
At this time, the lanterns in the backyard lit up, and the man was obviously panicking. Ning Huaizhi was not vague either. He took out his slingshot and hit the thief's ankles with a mud ball. The man lay on the ground, holding his feet and screaming in pain:
“Ahhh, it hurts so much!”
When Jiang Yuwei heard the man's voice, she knew it very well. It was Zhang Laizi!
Jiang Yuwei took out a straw rope from the cowshed, tied up Zhang Laizi's hands and feet, and dragged him to the front yard. Jiang Yuwei asked Ning Huaizhi to watch him in the yard while she went out to call for help.
Jiang Yuwei was afraid that Zhang Laizi had accomplices and was worried about leaving Ning Huaizhi and Ning Wan alone at home, so she went to Aunt Zhou's house first to call Uncle Cai, Tiezhu, and Ning Wudu, and they all shouted:
"Uncle Youcai, Zhang Laizi came to my house to steal things and I have tied him up. I would like to trouble you to go to my yard with Ning Wu as soon as possible to help Huaizhi watch over Zhang Laizi. I am afraid that he has accomplices who will come back."
After saying that, he turned to Tiezhu and said:
"Tiezhu, come with me to find the head of the village quickly."
Aunt Zhou's face changed with fear after hearing what Jiang Yuwei said. They were all honest farmers, and they never thought that someone in their village would have such evil intentions and go to Jiang Yuwei's house to steal things. Their house was so close to Jiang Yuwei's house, and if this matter was not resolved well, the people in the village would definitely be in a panic.
So Aunt Zhou did not dare to delay and hurriedly urged Tiezhu and Jiang Yuwei to leave. She locked the gate and followed Ning Youcai and Ning Wu to Jiang Yuwei's courtyard.
When Jiang Yuwei and Tiezhu arrived at the headman's house, it was already dawn. Ning Tiezhu went forward and knocked on the door. The headman had just gotten up and was about to go to the field to throw manure. Seeing someone coming to his house so early, he hurriedly opened the door and saw Jiang Yuwei and Ning Tiezhu looking flustered. He asked in confusion:
"Yuwei, didn't I tell you that the villagers would go to your yard to work early this morning? Why are you here so early?"
Jiang Yuwei panted heavily and waved her hands:
"No, Li Zheng, it's not that. It's my house. There's a thief in my house!"
The village head was shocked when he heard this. How could there be a thief in his village? He hurriedly said to Tiezhu:
"Tiezhu, go and call the village chief over quickly."
After that, he put down the shovel in his hand and said to Jiang Yuwei:
"Yuwei, let's go over there quickly!"
When the head of the village followed Jiang Yuwei to the courtyard, the villagers who came to work today also arrived in the courtyard one after another. They were all very surprised to see Zhang Laizi in the courtyard tied up and thrown to the ground with a resentful look on his face.
Aunt Zhou saw that Jiang Yuwei had finally found the head of the village, and hurried forward and shouted indignantly:
"Village head, this scoundrel must not be allowed to stay. If he dares to steal today, he will dare to kill tomorrow. Fortunately, the eldest and his wife were alert during their sleep. If he had stolen from the eldest and then from my house, I would have been scared to death."
After hearing what Aunt Zhou said, Zhang Laizi spat hard on the ground:
"Bah! I stole your things? Don't you see how your family lives? Is there anything worth stealing?"
Aunt Zhou saw this and stood up with her hands on her hips, cursing:
"You damn bastard, you thief! You've been caught in the act, and you still dare to bark here!"
The village head waved his hand and said:
"Okay, stop arguing, Zhang Laizi! Tell me, do you have any accomplices? Was there someone behind today's incident?"
Zhang Laizi, who was lying on the ground, looked at the villagers who had come to watch, then looked at the head of the village, tilted his head back, and said with disdain:
"I have no accomplices, and no one is instructing me. I am responsible for my own actions. Although I was caught in the act, I didn't take a single thing from them!"
Jiang Yuwei couldn't help but smile when she saw him like this:
"You are a man of integrity. Since you are so strong and willing to take the blame, we won't waste our breath. We will just arrest you and send you to the authorities. The officials won't care whether you succeeded in stealing or not. They will arrest you and put you in jail just for breaking into someone's house in the middle of the night and destroying other people's property."
Zhang Laizi heard this and said indifferently:
"It's not like I haven't been to jail before, and I was released after just a few days. Besides, at least I had food to eat in jail, but at home I didn't even have anyone to cook for me."
The village head was annoyed when he saw his stubborn attitude:
"You are such a good fellow, Zhang Laizi. It seems that Ningjia Village can no longer tolerate you. I can't let you spoil the whole barrel. Since you are fearless, I will send you to the government for trial today, and then expel you from Ningjia Village. From now on, you are no longer a member of our Ningjia Village. Our Ningjia Village can't support a sneaky and ungrateful person like you!"
Zhang Laizi became anxious when he heard this:
"No, no, no, don't be impulsive, Li Zheng. If you drive me out of Ningjia Village, where else can I go? I can't be driven away!"
The village head glanced at him and said:
"If I had known this would happen, I would have done it. Last time you committed such a filthy thing, I had already shown you mercy. But you are so stubborn and you committed such a mistake again today. Even if I wanted to keep you, I can't!"
Aunt Zhou saw this and hurried forward and said:
"Yes, drive him out of Ningjia Village, otherwise no one will live in peace!"
Seeing this, the villagers who were watching also hurriedly echoed:
"Yeah, if we don't chase him away this time, who knows whose house he'll steal next time!"
"That's right, get out of our Ningjia Village!"
"Yes, we must not let him corrupt the morals of our Ningjia Village!"
The clan leader who followed Ning Tiezhu heard this and could only shake his head helplessly:
"Li Zheng, send someone to send him to the government office today, and you should draft a document to move his household registration out of Ningjia Village."
When the village head saw that the clan leaders had agreed, he waved his hand to signal that Zhang Laizi be taken away first, and he went home to draft the documents.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Jiang Yuwei said to the villagers:
"Thank you all for today's work. Let's go to the backyard and work!"
Jiang Yuwei thought that Ning Huaizhi didn't sleep well last night, so she urged him to go back to the room and take a nap while she started preparing lunch.
Ning Huaizhi held Jiang Yuwei's hand distressedly and said:
"My wife, you have suffered with me. I am not sleepy. I will prepare lunch with you."
