Chapter 176: Action

The next day, after sending the children away, the two went back to take a nap before getting up to cook.

The ones who went to the market today were Erhe, Mei'er, Tao'er and Sizhu. The children who stayed at home were also doing their own jobs, some were herding ducks, some were working in the fields.

The two were cooking when Master Jiang and Jiang Shui came into the kitchen yawning. A closer look revealed that there were many red pimples on their faces and hands, like mosquito bites.

"Mr. Jiang, did you not sleep well last night?" Zheng Yuan looked up and saw him like this, and couldn't help feeling curious.

"Oh, now I finally know why my father said that Jiang Feng encountered a rat that morning. It turned out to be a real black-headed rat."

"Aunt, you say this house is not clean, but I think it's the human heart that is unclean." Young Master Jiang looked as if he had seen through everything.

The young master of a wealthy family had seen everything, so he could figure out the tricks behind it, and the two of them didn't find it surprising.

The two were curious about what happened last night and urged him to speak quickly.

It turned out that after Old Lady Chen and Chang An went out to eat last night, Master Jiang and Jiang Shui felt that they were not full and wanted to go to Zheng Yuan's house to find something to fill their stomachs.

As a result, before he went out, Jiang Shui signaled to him that there was someone outside, so Mr. Jiang closed the open courtyard door.

He still remembered what his father said to his two aunts that day. He kept Jiang Shui here with him just to prevent any accidents.

After closing the door, Master Jiang signaled Jiang Shui to jump onto the wall to see what was happening outside.

This is Jiang Shui's job, and jumping over the wall is not a challenge for him.

After jumping up, I found two men squatting in the corner of the backyard wall. Not far away, there was an old lady pretending to be wandering around casually, but in fact she was observing this side from time to time.

It is easy to guess that the people squatting in the corner must be Chen Fangyuan and his son Chen Feihong, and the old lady watching from a distance must be Tian Xizhen.

When the two men heard no movement inside, Chen Fangyuan squatted down and let Chen Feihong stand on his shoulders and tried to climb over the backyard wall.

Jiang Shui naturally did not give them the chance to see him. He flew down lightly and told Mr. Jiang what he had just seen.

Mr. Jiang originally wanted to hide quietly and see what they were going to do, but then he changed his mind.

"Jiang Shui! What are you hesitating about? Come on, let's go to Aunt Zheng's house to see if there's anything to eat. I'm starving to death!"

As he said this, he suddenly opened the gate and pretended to go out.

His shout had already frightened the father and son greatly, and now seeing them opening the door and trying to get out, they hurriedly climbed down the wall.

In a panic, Chen Feihong stepped on his father's head. Chen Fangyuan leaned to the side in pain and lost his balance. The father and son fell down and rolled into a ball.

But because Master Jiang and Jiang Feng were about to go out, the two of them didn't dare to make any sound. They endured the pain and crawled to the side.

Seeing the two of them like this, Tian Xizhen didn't know what was going on, so she quickly turned her face away and walked aside, pretending nothing had happened.

Looking at the miserable state of the family, Mr. Jiang, who was hiding at the door and watching, almost died of laughter.

But his purpose was not just to scare them.

Young Master Jiang took Jiang Feng and pretended to be in a hurry to go out. They hurried towards Zheng Yuan's house without locking the door.

When she left, she deliberately said loudly that she wanted to sleep with Sizhu at Zheng Yuan's house today and would not come back.

Of course, the door was intentionally unlocked, and the plan to go to Zheng Yuan's house was also fake. The two of them walked around the corner of the house, and after Jiang Shui made sure that those people couldn't see them, he secretly went to the back of the main house.

Jiang Shui carried his son up to the roof of the main house easily, and lay on the side where Chen Fangyuan and the others couldn't see, waiting for their actions.

The opportunities have been given to them, and Mr. Jiang believes that they will take action tonight.

But the two men still overestimated the courage of Chen Fangyuan's family. The master and servant fed mosquitoes on the roof for two hours, but the family did not move.

Mr. Jiang even suspected that their performance was too exaggerated and was seen through by the family.

But they didn't go back, and just observed this side from a distance. After a while, a few more people came and whispered something.

It looks like the whole family has stepped in.

If this family hadn't gone back either, both the master and the servant would have wanted to go down directly.

Finally, after it became completely dark, they began to move.

The first person to run over was a little boy, who must be Chen Feihong's son. A child of four or five years old would not be guarded by ordinary people, but they were smart enough to send a little boy to investigate.

The child ran to the door and put his ear against it, trying to listen to whether there was any movement inside.

But when he got closer, he found that the door was pushed open a big gap, which scared him. Upon closer inspection, he found that the door was not locked.

When the child found that the door was not locked, he was very happy and turned around to tell his father and grandfather.

Finally, there was going to be some action, and both Mr. Jiang and Jiang Shui breathed a sigh of relief.

After waiting for a while, Chen Fangyuan and Chen Feihong finally tiptoed up, gently pulled out the lock on the door and went in. The others were still standing guard outside.

Jiang Shui had good eyesight, and from time to time he would quietly report to Mr. Jiang about the movements of several people in the distance.

Young Master Jiang thought that even if you didn't say it, you could hear the sound of mosquitoes being slapped, and that group of people were still there.

They were fine on the roof, but those who hid in the grass nests were probably in trouble.

Young Master Jiang was scratching the mosquito bites on his body, gloating in his heart, completely unaware that he was also bitten badly.

After Chen Fangyuan and his father entered the house, Master Jiang lay quietly on the roof and asked Jiang Shui to watch what the two of them were doing.

When Old Lady Chen and Chang An left, they had already put all the toothbrushes and tools into the warehouse and locked them up.

Unless two people demolish it violently, they cannot get in.

Young Master Jiang believed that they did not dare to cause trouble blatantly for now, otherwise they would not have been wandering around outside for so long.

Therefore, Mr. Jiang dared to let them in and only asked Jiang Shui to keep an eye on them.

At first, the two of them were a little cautious when they went in, fearing that someone would suddenly jump out.

After making sure that there was no one around, the father and son began to relax and walked around the house in a carefree manner.

Chen Feihong even arrogantly kicked over a stool.

After wandering around for a long time without seeing anything, the father and son turned their attention to the warehouse on the side.

After turning the lock on the door and finding it was tightly locked, the two men kicked it unwillingly, but did not take any further action.

Originally their target today was not Zheng Yuan and her friends' goods, they just thought it would be nice to cause some damage if they had the chance.

Since there was no chance, the two of them didn't force it.

Giving up the idea of ​​going into the warehouse, the father and son turned and walked towards the bedrooms.

After confirming the bedroom of Mr. Jiang and his servant, the father and son quietly took out a packet of powder from their arms and covered their mouths and noses with it.

However, it was not placed in the kettle in the room, but sprinkled in the gap beside the windowsill. After sprinkling, the scattered powder was carefully wiped clean.

Then the father and son quietly retreated, put everything back in place, and went to the kitchen.

Chen Feihong took out another packet of powder and sprinkled it into the water tank. Then he put away the things and checked again to make sure there was no problem before leaving.

If Jiang Shui hadn't been watching, no one would have been able to tell that someone had come in.
