After being abandoned by the educated youth, I became rich in the 80s

Lan Qing looked at the two thieves who broke into someone's house. Perhaps because there was only a woman and two children living here, the two were so bold that they walked in without even covering their faces.

A man was holding a small knife in his hand and was standing in front of the door of the brick house. There was an excited and lewd smile in his eyes, which made Lan Qing furious.

Daring to bully Lan Xin, it simply shows that they don't take the four brothers seriously.

"Hit me!"

Lan Qing held up a carrying pole and, at a command, several brothers surrounded the two thieves and beat them half to death.

If the men had not held back and did not dare to kill them, the two would have been beaten to the point of having only one breath left.

Lan Xin woke up when she heard the noise. Now she was in the room, quietly holding a bench, facing the door, waiting to hit it as soon as it opened.

She really didn't expect that a thief would come to her house tonight.

This is really outrageous!

When she heard the noises coming from Lan Qing and others outside, Lan Xin breathed a sigh of relief. After feeling it carefully, she felt a cold sweat on her back.

There were sounds of fighting outside, but Lan Xin did not go out, for fear of making things worse. It was only when she heard Lan Qing calling her that she turned on the light and moved open the door that was blocked tightly.

Pushing open the door, the dim light illuminated the faces of the two people, allowing everyone to see them clearly.

The two men, with bruised noses and swollen faces and shifty eyes, were the notorious scoundrels from the neighboring village. They were now beaten into submission by the Lan brothers and tied up with thick hemp ropes like dumplings.

"Tell me, what are you doing here tonight?" Lan Qing asked viciously.

The two scoundrels shook their bodies, and there was no place on their bodies that didn't hurt.

They regretted it so much that they wondered why they had taken action today without asking for good news and ended up meeting Lan Qing and his brothers.

"explain."

Seeing that the two of them didn't speak, Lan Qing kicked them and they spoke.

"We lost money gambling and wanted to find some money to spend," said one of the men who had lost teeth and spoke with a lisp.

The brothers Lan Xin and Lan Qing looked at each other, and Lan Qing asked again.

"How do you know this is a wealthy family?"

Lan Qing kicked him again, and the other party spoke slowly.

"Hiss, everyone knows that she hired people from the village to do work a few days ago, and the wages she paid were very high. Today I saw a car drive to her door. Her family must be rich."

Lan Qing and his brothers were so angry at what they said that they kicked him again.

The money was earned by other people's own ability. These two grown men with healthy hands and feet didn't go out to find someone to do the work themselves, but instead robbed the orphans and the widow.

"How many of you are there in total? Is there anyone keeping watch?" Lan Xin asked.

The two shook their heads: "She's just a woman, why would she need to be a lookout?"

Just the family of this woman and her two children is a matter of great difficulty.

They were afraid that they would get less money if they were keeping watch outside, but who knew that four big men would suddenly show up? They knew that they would never come if these people were there.

Lan Qing was so angry that he beat them up again. After questioning them, he stuffed their mouths and threw them into a corner. He planned to go to the city to call the police early the next morning.

This has happened to Lan Xin. If she doesn't make a big deal out of it, those people with evil intentions will know that the Lan family is not easy to mess with, and they will think twice about themselves.

After dealing with the two little thieves, Lan Xin looked at the time. It was a little after three in the morning.

"We caught two little thieves by accident. I don't know if there will be other people coming tonight." Lan Xin said.

The five people were surprised to catch these two scoundrels.

"When we beat them just now, each of them howled louder than the other. Even if this area is remote, we would still find them if we had been paying attention to this side." Lan He said after pondering for a moment.

Lan Xin looked at the two gangsters and nodded.

You can tell just by looking at him that he is not doing well. He cries like a fool when he is hit.

"Then let's all have a good rest tonight. It's too stuffy in the thatched hut." Lan Xin said.

Lan Qing shook her head. "It's okay. Just go to sleep. I have plans."

Lan Qing planned to have two people keep an eye on the place tonight. Two of them would sleep for a while and one of them would rest for an hour. Then when it was daybreak at five o'clock, they would call the police.

No matter what Lan Xin said, it was useless. She was pushed back to the room by the brothers. She had no choice but to take out a bunch of mosquito coils.

"I think last night's mosquito coils have all burned out, so light this new one."

"Yeah." This time Lan Qing did not refuse. She took the mosquito coil and lit it. There are so many mosquitoes in the countryside and they are so poisonous.

Lan Xin blocked the door again and returned to her room, but she couldn't fall asleep. She couldn't help wondering what she should do when daybreak came.

The sky gradually turned pale, from dark to light. Lan Xin and the others did not sleep, but it was very quiet during these two hours and no one came to visit.

Lan Xin sighed, not knowing whether to worry or feel relieved.

It would be best if there were only these two little thieves, but she was also afraid that someone might be hiding and planning to take action at an unknown time next time. How would she deal with it if Lan Qing and his brothers were not around?

But no matter what, these two little thieves, whose faces were as swollen as pigs' heads after being left alone for two hours, had to be dealt with.

Lan Qing walked to the gate of the courtyard, glared, and quickly made a gesture to the people behind him.

He heard some noise outside the door.

Upon seeing this, the remaining few people showed excitement on their faces, held their breath, and remained silent.

Lan Qing waited until the people outside came in, then suddenly pushed open the gate, scaring the two people who were sneaking around outside, and the basket in their hands fell to the ground.

Seeing the person coming, Lan Qing also showed a look of surprise on his face.

Lan Xin and a few others hurried over and saw the neighbor aunt and old couple screaming "Ouch" and quickly lowering their heads to pick up the vegetables that had fallen on the ground.

Those were round tomatoes with attractive colors after being washed with well water, and cucumbers that looked sweet and delicious. But now they were frightened and fell to the ground, and many of them were smashed.

"Auntie, why are you picking so many tomatoes and cucumbers so early in the morning?"

Lan Xin asked as she helped them pick up the items.

The doubts in her heart still remained, especially after two thieves were caught.

"Oh, it's all rotten. How can I eat it? Why did you scare me so early in the morning? You're scaring me to death." The aunt cursed as she picked up the food.

When she heard Lan Xin's question, she was stuck for a moment, not knowing what to say, and her eyes flickered guiltily.

But soon, she found the bright spot and looked up at Lan Qing and his brothers in Lan Xin's courtyard, full of confusion.

"Lan Qing Lan Ze, what are you brothers doing at Lan Xin's house?"

They are all adult men and women, and they are married. Why are they not at home so late at night and running to their sister's house?

Seeing the gossipy light gradually forming in the aunt's eyes, Lan Xin quickly said, "We caught two thieves last night. I asked my brother to come."

Lan Xin knew that if she didn't explain something at this time, who knows what it would turn into when these people said it.
