The yard was deserted, let alone people, not even a shadow.

If it weren't for the moonlight, the footprints in the yard were particularly messy and dense, indicating that there were indeed several people approaching here just now, and Gu Yundong would have suspected that all the sounds he heard before were hallucinations.

But... why did the thief who was still there just now disappear?

Gu Yunshu hurriedly ran out, "Eldest sister? Why is there no one?"

Gu Yundong touched his chin and thought for a while, "Could it be that they have other conspiracies?"

"what?"

"I don't know." Gu Yundong asked him to enter the house, and went to the kitchen and thatched hut to check all these places. It was true that no one was there, so he turned back.

Gu Yunshu hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Eldest sister, have you found it?"

"No, maybe...they came here tonight to step in." He could only think so, but just to be cautious, Gu Yundong stayed up all night and was highly concentrated.

Therefore, when she went out the next day, she had obvious dark circles under her eyes.

So she planned to go to the homestead in the morning and make up her sleep when she came back to prevent the thieves from coming back at night.

Unexpectedly, when he went to the yard of Zeng's house, he saw Shao Qingyuan again.

There was no one in the yard. Mrs. Dong was making ginger tea, and her daughter, the seven-year-old girl she saw yesterday, was helping to set the fire. The nine-year-old eldest son and the five-year-old younger son were not at home either, and went out to collect firewood.

Gu Yundong walked up to Shao Qingyuan and sat down, asking him, "My aunt asked you to come to dinner?"

"No." Shao Qingyuan said, "I'm waiting for you here."

Gu Yundong was surprised, "Wait for me, what's the matter? Are you going up the mountain to hunt wild boars again? Ah, have you found the trace of the third wild boar?"

Shao Qingyuan, "..."

"I haven't been up the mountain for the past two days. I'm waiting for you to tell you that your house is being watched." Shao Qingyuan's expression was serious, "Last night, four idiots entered your yard and wanted to steal something."

"you saw it?"

"Yeah." Shao Qingyuan nodded, "I knocked them unconscious and took them away."

Doing good deeds is to leave a name.

Gu Yundong had a saying in his heart that MMP didn't know whether to say it or not. Her expression was extraordinarily complicated, and it was even more striking against the dark circles under her eyes.

Shao Qingyuan frowned involuntarily, "What?"

Gu Yundong thought to himself whether they were well-intentioned or appreciated.

So she tried to be euphemistic and said, "Actually... I, um, these two days, right, have been waiting for the thief to come to the door. This is the case, I think, my house must be built with a lot of people's jealousy. In the daytime, we are on guard against someone doing bad things, so it's better to kill the chickens and show the monkeys, let everyone see what happens when we attack our family, don't think that my family is easy to be bullied by not being an adult man. Last night...cough, I was sitting in the main room...waiting They're coming."

She said that she seemed to hear someone groaning. She thought it was the thieves who accidentally bumped into the sound of eating pain, but it wasn't.

Shao Qingyuan's hand tightened slightly, and his lips were pursed tightly.

Gu Yundong really didn't blame him, but Shao Qingyuan took a deep look at her dark circles and suddenly stood up and said, "Got it."

Then he left, his long legs took a particularly big step.

Gu Yundong didn't have time to say "thank you" at the corner of her mouth, she stroked her forehead and sighed secretly.

After a few words with Mr. Dong, Gu Yundong still slept for an afternoon when he went back, so he wasn't particularly sleepy at night.

So when she heard the movement from the outer courtyard, she suddenly sat up from the bed.
