Chapter 48 Chapter 48

The old lady took Lin Yuan home. When she was bathing her, she found that several blood marks were scratched on her little arm.

Looking at the dazzling scratches on the little granddaughter's white and tender little arm, the old lady lifted Lin Minghai out and scolded him again, blaming him for not being able to discipline the children.

Lin Yuan didn't care much about the scratch on her arm. Although she was hit by Lin Daya, Lin Daya suffered even more losses in her hands. She gave Lin Daya several sticks.

Lin Yuan thought that Luo Xiaohua was also caught by Lin Daya for helping her, so she told the old lady about this matter. If Xiaohua hadn't helped her, she might not be able to deal with Lin Daya's siblings.

Early the next morning, Lin Yuan got up early, followed the old lady to knead the dough-baked oil cake, and added several eggs to the Luo family.

When Mrs. Luo saw that the old sister had specially sent something over, she was not willing to accept it. The two of them were refusing, and Luo Xiaohua, who had just gotten up from the bed, smelled the fragrance.

Now she didn't care about sleepiness and hurriedly left the house. When she saw that Lin A-Mi-Ni gave their house several egg cakes, her eyes lit up.

When Mrs. Luo saw her granddaughter's greedy look, she was both funny and a little distressed.

Their family had to save things to engage in marriage for their youngest son some time ago, and the quality of the food had dropped a lot. The Lin family sent egg cakes made of white flour. Their family had not eaten such fine things for their children for many days.

At this time, the granddaughter looked at him, and there was no way to say what Mrs. Luo had to say before.

When Luo Xiaohua happily brought a few oil cakes back to the stove, Old Mrs. Luo sighed and inquired about the relief food with the old sisters.

Although the Luo family still has some food storage, there are too many people who can eat at home, so the little food cannot last long, so Mrs. Luo is particularly concerned about the food relief.

"Dan said before that other villages have already applied for relief grain from the superiors, but the situation is not very optimistic. We are affected by the disaster, and the same is true in other places. We are all queuing up for relief grain from the superiors to help our lives. We don't know how long it will take when it's our turn."

After hearing this, although Mrs. Luo had been mentally prepared, she was somewhat disappointed.

The old lady was powerless to do anything about this. She talked to the old sister and went home. Seeing that Lin Yuan was still waiting for her to have dinner, she hurriedly took a bowl and went to the pot to serve the rice.

The cooked sweet potato porridge was sweet and fragrant, and with the remaining two egg oil cakes, the old lady and Lin Yuan both ate it very fragrant, and they filled their stomachs with 70% or 80% full without much time.

After Lin Yuan finished drinking the porridge in the bowl, the old lady was about to clean up the dishes when she heard Lin Da'an shouting from house to house to ask everyone to gather at Lao Yushu Farm for a meeting.

After Lin Da'an informed the villagers, he returned to the Laoyushu Farm and began to talk to the two young police officers who came to handle the case early in the morning. By the way, he told them about the specific situation of Shanglin Village so that they could investigate the case later.

Not long after, more and more villagers came to the meeting. When they saw two police officers standing beside Lin Daan, the ones who were not in their hearts were guessing what the police came here for this time, and those who were in their hearts began to restlessly.

Seeing that everyone was almost here, Lin Da'an cleared his throat and said, "Have you all arrived? There are still people in the family who haven't come here, hurry up and call me, I'll announce something later."

As soon as Lin Da'an finished speaking, Chen Ju'er raised her hand and shouted loudly: "Captain, there is no one from Lin Minghai and his family, and there is also Zhang Ming and his family, but Zhang Ming is living in the health center. Now I can't come!"

Lin Daan knew Zhang Ming's current situation and knew that he could not move with injuries at all, so he didn't care whether he had come or not. However, it was not indifferent to Lin Minghai and Li Yufen's failure to come either.

After hearing Chen Juer's words, his eyes swept around the crowd. Sure enough, no figures of Lin Minghai and Li Yufen were seen, and he immediately sank his face.

"Why is there no one in their family? Who can help you run and see what big things are there in their family? You can't even take care of the meeting in the village!"

"I, I, captain, I'll go and see for you!"

Chen Juer stood up and expressed her opinion actively, then ran towards the village.

Chen Juer and Lin Minghai's family are neighbors next door, so they know the movements of their family. When she came to the meeting, she heard the couple quarreling again. It was a pity that she looked down on the excitement at that time. Now she naturally doesn't want to miss the opportunity.

Chen Ju'er was several meters away from Lin Minghai's house, and he heard the crying sounds of his children one after another, mixed with Lin Minghai's angry shouts.

"You didn't cook last night, and you got back and had a fight with me. I didn't even argue with you. This morning, Da Ya and Da Bao were so hungry that he cried. You were still sleeping in a slutty way. You were still sleeping in a slight manner and pretending not to hear it. I still couldn't get up and cook breakfast. Now you still have a drooping face and owing money to whom you are owed money, don't you really want to pass it? If so, let's go to the county to get a divorce certificate!"

When Chen Juer heard that the couple was still making trouble and even mentioned the divorce, she immediately became excited.

She couldn't stand Li Yufen's best. When she heard this explosive content, she hugged her waist and moved towards the wall of the Lin family, intending to listen to some fun again.

Li Yufen was still angry, but when she heard Lin Minghai say she wanted to divorce her, she could not calm down. She suddenly felt a little panicked.

She was angry last night by Lin Minghai, so she ignored Lin Minghai all night and didn't even cook breakfast and didn't care about the child, so she wanted to force Lin Minghai to surrender to her.

These are all tricks she used in the past. Whenever she was angry before, Lin Minghai would have made her happy, but he never thought that he would even want to divorce her now, which made Li Yufen's heart sink suddenly.

Even if the divorce is just a casual statement, it will make Li Yufen feel very uncomfortable.

Just as she was about to cry with Lin Minghai, she heard someone screaming outside her wall. When she heard that it was her mortal enemy Chen Ju'er, Li Yufen hurriedly wiped her face and forced her tears back.

Chen Ju'er, who was hiding at the wall and eavesdropping, was patted on the shoulder from behind. She was caught off guard and was startled and screamed with a 'ah'.

Chen Ju'er covered her beating heart and was about to curse, but when she turned her head and saw that she was standing behind her, she looked at her with a smile on her face. She hurriedly swallowed the curse again.

Chen Juer got up from the bottom of the wall and looked at Jiang Shuxiang with awkward smile: "It's Shuxiang's sister-in-law, why are you here too? I'm going to ask Lin Minghai and Li Yufen to have a meeting."

Then, Chen Ju'er shouted loudly into the Lin family's yard: "I said Li Yufen and Lin Minghai. I heard you couple arguing early in the morning. This relationship is really good, but you can't ignore the team leader's notice and don't go to the meeting. It made my sister-in-law Shuxiang and I come here to call you. Isn't this delaying everyone's time?"

Lin Minghai saw that Jiang Shuxiang and Chen Ju'er were both outside. He had never had any good feelings for Chen Ju'er, who was more sensible than his wife. If Chen Ju'er were the only one, he would have turned around and left, but there was Jiang Shuxiang there, so he had to press down on his anger of arguing with Li Yufen and greet Jiang Shuxiang.

Li Yufen also followed with red eyes. She ignored Chen Juer's ridiculous gaze and looked at Jiang Shuxiang with a grievance, "Sister-in-law Shuxiang..."

Jiang Shuxiang was so scared by her pitiful appearance that she was about to get goosebumps. She was not in the mood to help her mediate the relationship between husband and wife. She told Lin Minghai that they would go to the meeting as soon as possible, so she hurried away.

"Tsk tsk, it's so pitiful!" Chen Ju'er smiled gloatingly at Li Yufen, and followed her with her waist twisted.

Li Yufen was so angry that she was so arrogant that Chen Juer was so arrogant that she was about to curse her, but when she saw Lin Minghai leaving without looking back, which made her feel angry and had nowhere to vent.

Lin Daan was almost impatient when he saw Lin Minghai and Li Yufen and his wife coming. He frowned and didn't say anything about them. When everyone was here, he directly announced the purpose of convening this villagers' meeting to everyone.

"Miss villagers and team members, I asked everyone to hold this meeting today because there was a vicious theft incident in our village yesterday. The thief who stole sweet potatoes has not been found yet, so I reported the case to the Public Security Bureau and found two public security comrades to come and catch the thief for us! This thief steals things in our village and doesn't catch people, everyone will definitely not be at ease, right?!"

As soon as Lin Da'an finished speaking, the villagers immediately responded. Now more than one family has planted things in their private fields in their village. Yesterday, the sweet potato field of Mrs. Lin's house was stolen, but many people were restless at night.

Now that Lin Daan came to the police to catch the thief, the villagers who were worried that their families would be stolen were applauded.

"I had planned to harvest the peanuts planted in the field before, but it was time to harvest them. If I dig them in advance, I will definitely reduce the yield. Now, when the police find the thief, I don't have to worry about being stolen in my field in the future."

"I don't know who the stole the things. The life in our village is not yet at the point where we can't survive. The stole the things must not be our own people. Maybe it was the lazy people who were starving to death in Xiaolin Village next door."

"Maybe, have you heard that the man stole something and deliberately destroyed the sweet potatoes left in Aunt Lin's field? No one in Xiaolin Village has a grudge against Aunt Lin's family. Maybe who in our village deliberately did it?"

Seeing that Lin Da'an was talking about it, he basically agreed to catch the thief, so he continued: "Since everyone agreed to catch the person, we must do our best to cooperate with the work of the public security comrades. The public security comrades plan to search the village door to door to see if they can find clues, so please cooperate next."

"What? You still have to search from house to house? That's not good? I haven't stole anything, why should I search my house?"

"That's right, we didn't do anything bad!"

At first, the villagers were very supportive of the police coming to catch the thieves, but when they heard that they had to search from house to house, many villagers were reluctant.

After all, no one was willing to be searched for their own homes, and even the police searched for them, so they started arguing with villagers who had been very supportive of catching thieves, and Li Yufen responded the most.

When Li Yufen heard Lin Daan say that she wanted the police to investigate the thief who stole sweet potatoes, her heart was shocked. Then, when Lin Daan said that she would also search from house to house, her face changed drastically, and her legs became weak.

Yesterday, she was planning to make all the sweet potatoes sent by her mother into sweet potato cakes and eliminate them, but who knew that she was so angry that she forgot about this matter.

The sweet potatoes her mother sent are still in her yard. They were searched by the police. If they are found out, isn’t this clear evidence?!

Fortunately, Li Yufen is not the only one who opposes the door-to-door search, so her actions are not very conspicuous.

"Don't make a noise, everyone should not make a noise. Every household has a household head and follow the public security comrades. As long as your family has no shame or stolen things, what's there to be afraid of? If you are so opposed to search, the people who will not steal things will be among you who are opposed, right?"

After Lin Daan finished speaking, he swept the people who were most opposed with suspicious eyes, and his eyes were even more shocked when he fell on Li Yufen.

He originally regarded Li Yufen as the target of suspicion, but now he saw that she was still opposing, so he was even more suspicious.

Li Yufen was so relieved that she was looking at Lin Da'an. She hurriedly avoided the other party's sight. Although she no longer clamored for opposition, she felt more and more uneasy.

The others were taken off by Lin Da'an. If they insisted on not letting the police come to the door, they would be guilty. Although they were still unhappy, they could only agree.

Anyway, they didn't do anything wrong, so even if the police came to search, there was no need to worry. Thinking of this, the last bit of unwillingness was dispersed.

Seeing that everyone else agreed, Li Yufen felt even more uncomfortable. Seeing that Lin Daan had led the police to search from house to house, she wanted to run home to eliminate the evidence when the person was not careful.

Unexpectedly, she was discovered by Chen Juer just after she walked a few steps.

"Hey, Li Yufen, where are you going? The captain said that each household can only go with the public security comrades to search, and everyone else has to wait here, you can't leave!"
