Chapter 35 His intention
In the middle of the night, Ye Qingran was still sleeping as soundly as before.
Not long after she fell asleep, she heard rustling footsteps in the yard.
Although the sound was not loud, she could tell it was a male's footsteps. But she can be sure that these are definitely not Ye Zhuoyu's steps, let alone Chu Qingyun's.
They are all martial arts practitioners, each one is better than the other, and they will never leave such heavy footsteps.
The only possibility is that someone sneaked into the yard.
She gently slipped out of bed, walked to the window and opened it a crack, just enough to see the yard.
The weather is not particularly good tonight, but we can still see the moon.Although the moonlight illuminated the backyard unclearly, the shadow of the man in the yard could still be seen dimly.
He bent his waist, his movements were a bit obscene, and he tiptoed towards the house, as if heading towards the vegetable patch.
Seeing this, she knew what she was here for without thinking too much.
Either they came for the spring water, or they wanted to steal the seedlings that were already growing in the field.
People who often farm are very good at transplanting. It is not difficult to take home the vegetables grown by others and plant them again.
But after looking at it for a long time, Ye Qingran found that the figure of this man was very familiar. He was tall and strong, and he wanted spring water or vegetable seedlings. Who else could it be besides Zhang Daqiang, who was beaten with a bruised nose and face during the day?
Ye Qingran snorted coldly and had an idea in mind.
It was so late, and she didn't want to disturb her parents and brother, so she took out a strong flashlight from the space and shined it towards Zhang Daqiang through the gap.
The sudden white light startled Zhang Daqiang, and he immediately fell to his knees, like an ostrich, trying to hide himself. It seemed that he was scared during the day.
When he hid for a long time and heard no movement, he raised his head and looked around, but his eyes were dazzled by the bright light, and it took him a long time to recover.
He didn't understand where the light came from, but it was as bright as daytime for a while, but he also discovered that the light posed no threat to him, so he wanted to finish his work and go home quickly.
But as soon as he took a step forward, the light followed him one step forward.
He immediately broke out in a cold sweat, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Damn it, why is this ghost place so weird? There can't really be ghosts..."
He bravely moved forward, but the light was still following him, so he ignored it and looked around anxiously, apparently hoping to find the remaining spring water.
But he was worried about being discovered by Ye Zhuoyu, so he didn't dare to enter the house. He could only search for it on the edge of the vegetable field. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find anything to hold water anywhere.
He was anxious, but he was also greedy for the spring water, so he hesitated and decided to go into the kitchen to look for it.
But as soon as his hand touched the kitchen door, the light flickered violently, like thunder.
"Zhang Daqiang...Zhang Daqiang..." Ye Qingran whispered at the top of his voice.
Her room was not far from the kitchen. Although the sound was small, it was particularly clear in the quiet night.
Hearing this voice, Zhang Daqiang was so frightened that he immediately ran out without thinking about anything.
"This is a fucking haunted house..."
After seeing him run away, Ye Qingran put the flashlight into the space.
"Hmph, you have so much courage and you still dare to steal things."
After escaping from Ye's yard, Zhang Daqiang rushed home.
The fear in his heart made him always feel that something was following behind him, so he ran forward regardless, not daring to stop even though he was panting.
It wasn't until he bumped into something in the night and almost fell to the ground that he reluctantly stopped and hurriedly backed away.
"I didn't do anything, don't arrest me, don't arrest me... I'm a good person..."
"Zhang Daqiang? What are you doing in the middle of the night? Hiss... you killed me..."
Just as the village chief wanted to go to the toilet, he turned around and was knocked to the ground by Zhang Daqiang.
His old bones were almost broken by his big body, and he was sitting on the ground groaning in pain.
"village head?"
Only then did Zhang Daqiang come back to his senses and looked at the people on the ground in shock.
The village chief shouted angrily: "What are you doing standing there, why don't you help me up quickly?"
At this time, Zhang Daqiang was very mentally fragile. He did whatever the village chief said and immediately helped him up.
Seeing his guilty look, the village chief looked him up and down with suspicion and asked, "Where have you been in the middle of the night?"
"I...I feel uncomfortable in my stomach and I have to go to the toilet."
"Go to the toilet? Why don't I remember there is a toilet over there? Isn't there one next to your house?"
The village chief snorted coldly, "You won't start stealing things again, will you? Other villages won't tolerate you. I'm kind enough to take you in. If you do such shameful things again, don't blame me for driving you out!" "
Although Zhang Daqiang is arrogant, he is also a bully and shy of the strong. He naturally dares to shout when facing Ye Qingran, a little girl, but he has no such idea when facing the village chief.
This was his last place to stay. The other surrounding villages, including the town, knew that his hands and feet were unclean and that he was unreasonable and unreasonable, so they were unwilling to take him in permanently. In the end, he cried, shouted, knelt down and begged the village chief, saying that he After he truly changed his mind, the village chief reluctantly kept him.
And it was already agreed at that time that if he committed another crime, he would never be retained again.
He has been quite obedient in the past few years, but his behavior today was so abnormal that the village chief had to doubt his purpose of going out in the middle of the night.
"No way, village chief. As you know, I have never done anything wrong in the past few years. I only had a few minor quarrels with my neighbors..."
Although Zhang Daqiang felt guilty, he said this right out of the gate, "I really had to go to the toilet and my stomach felt uncomfortable. I was still bloated after going to the toilet, so I went out for a walk."
"Let's take a walk? Then why are you running in a hurry?"
"I..." He was speechless.
The village chief's back was still hurting at this moment. How could you believe that he was just out for a walk?
He looked towards the way Zhang Daqiang came and immediately guessed his intention.
Only Ye Qingran's family lived at the other end of the village, and they went there precisely because the house was clean enough. He also heard about what happened to Zhang Daqiang during the day, and had already taught him a lesson, but he didn't expect that he would not die. Heartbroken, I spent most of the day running to his house.
It's come to this. Isn't it stealing or something?
"Okay, are you really stealing things again?"
Zhang Daqiang's new village was in trouble, and he immediately cried: "I'm wronged, village chief, look at me, I don't have anything on me, where did I steal something?"
"If you don't have anything, you haven't stolen anything? I take it you haven't stolen anything, right?"
The village chief was so angry that he puffed his beard, "You, you, you have had no worries about food and clothing these past few years, why do you have to worry about that little water? Could it be that you are not trying to steal things, but to take revenge on them? ?what you up to?"
