Chapter 103 - 103 Fainted



Just as they were about to go back to their rooms to sleep, the patriarch walked in with an excited face. When he saw them yawning, he was stunned for a moment and asked, “Were you guys out last night being thieves? Why are you so sleepy?”

“We can’t even guard against the thieves targeting us. How could we be one?” Gu Chengrui said without batting an eyelid. He then yawned and said, “Well, I was afraid that the Qiao family would send people over again, so I didn’t dare sleep much the entire night.”

“You don’t say. At dawn, we really did catch one in the ancestral hall. It was the one who had been watching us villagers.”

!!

“Then I can rest assured in the future. Do come in, ” Gu Chengrui invited. “Have a seat. ”

“No, it’s alright. I’m here to tell you a piece of good news.”

“Oh, what good news?”

“Did you hear? The Qiao family was robbed last night. They didn’t even leave a pot or bowl for them. It was so tragic.” The patriarch said with a gloating expression.

“They’ve been robbed? Who did it?”

“I don’t know. I heard that Elder Qiao was so angry that his face turned green. However, they didn’t find anything else besides knowing that they used knockout powder.” The patriarch laughed. “I don’t know which person did it. If I knew, I would pray for his safety for the next three years. This is just so satisfying.”

After speaking, he waved his hand and said, “Alright, you guys go ahead. However, it’s best if you don’t leave the village for the time being, in case that old brat takes his anger out on us.”

Then, with his hands behind his back, he hummed a little tune and walked out.

After he left, Gu Chengrui went up and locked the door. He also laughed.

Zhou Ying rolled her eyes at him and went back to her room.

Seeing this, Gu Chengrui knew that she was laughing at his behavior for stopping her from robbing them. After all, he had received many years of education and grown up in a morally decent place. He could not accept that he was doing a thief’s job.

However, when they entered the house and thought of Elder Qiao’s angry face, they couldn’t fall asleep.

Ultimately, the two entered the interspace and packed up the things they had stolen.

The chest of gold was exactly 1000 taels, and the silver ingots of various sizes totaled 9000 taels. Zhou Ying felt that she could not use them at the moment, so she simply put them away in the warehouse.

She placed the remaining 800 taels of silver and copper coins on the villa’s second floor.

Then, it was food and utensils.

They didn’t expect to receive two large jars of mustard seed and sauced vegetables. It tasted delicious.

Zhou Ying smacked her forehead at the end of all this, saying, “We should have gone to the storeroom with all kinds of clothes and jewelry.”

“If it’s exposed, then so be it. It’s enough as long as it serves as a warning. Elder Qiao must rest for a while before recovering from these losses.” Gu Chengrui replied.

“That’s right. The Qiao family shouldn’t be this poor. Why is there only so little silver? Could it be that it’s all with his wife? ”

“I don’t think so. When I was in the silver vault, I looked through the account books and saw that the Qiao family had recently purchased a lot of shops and fields. I think they have used them to buy more property.”

“No wonder Elder Qiao’s face turned green from anger. It’s good enough that he didn’t faint.” Zhou Ying said with a smile.

What she didn’t know was that after Elder Qiao realized something was wrong, he immediately ran to his study room. When he saw that the gifts he had prepared were gone, he really fainted and was now being treated by doctors.

Three days have passed in the blink of an eye. The patriarch noticed the Qiao family didn’t come to redeem these hooligans, so he simply sent them to the county officials with their confessions, then left them alone.

On the fourth day’s evening, Qian Zhuang and Gu Erjiang came to visit in a good mood.

“What’s wrong? ” Gu Chengrui asked directly. “Is there good news? “
