Chapter 595 Thoughts
"Let's think back, did any of you notice when that villain sneaked into the village?" Ye Muyu said.
Qian, following up, added, "Exactly, such a stranger appearing in the village and we didn't even know. It's similar to the thief incident before the Dragon Boat Festival. We need to be more vigilant about strangers coming and going. It's too frightening."
"I really didn't notice..." Chu An's wife, Zheng, frowned, seriously recalling and then shook her head gently. "Occasionally, there are strangers delivering goods at the bridgehead. We all live in the village and with filial piety, except for going to the bridge to buy soy sauce, it's been a long time since we went there."
Zheng was speaking the truth. With national piety and prayers for Chu Heng at home, the Chu family went out even less frequently.
At this moment, Wang's sister-in-law, Song, slapped her legs and exclaimed, "Ah Heng's wife, you asking like this reminded me. Yesterday afternoon, when I went to the bridge to buy some scrap cloth from Aunt Hu, I vaguely saw that the man delivering goods to Aunt Hu's shop seemed to be two people. When I left, there was only one person."
"I didn't pay much attention at that time, thinking maybe I was seeing things."
"Now thinking about it, could that person have come with the cart to Aunt Hu's side?" Song said with uncertainty.
Others were also drawn into this topic.
Hastily asking, "Wang sister-in-law, are you sure?"
Song immediately shook her head, "How could I be sure?"
"Do you think it's possible that the person came to the village at night, and then hid in the schoolhouse while everyone was asleep?" Qian couldn't help but speculate.
Fourth aunt, Kong, immediately vetoed, "That's impossible. Both families next to the schoolhouse have dogs, and there's a river behind the schoolhouse and a street in front. The main entrance leads to Master Lin's house... Wait a minute... maybe it's possible..."
Sun followed, "Yes, I noticed that the schoolhouse's wall is not very high. If we can't be sure whether he sneaked in at midnight or came with the delivery cart as Wang's wife said."
"Definitely at night. How could he not be noticed during the day?"
"Exactly, I think it's more likely at night. It's late, even if the dog barks, it's not possible to go and check the schoolhouse."
"I think putting broken porcelain pieces on the wall is effective." Qian continued.
"That's right, the wall of the schoolhouse is too low, so people can easily get in." Everyone agreed.
"Moreover, he must be skilled."
"I think Ah Yu, your family's servant, is tall and strong. It takes some strength to catch that villain."
"Ah Yu, how much money did your family spend on buying servants? Are the strong ones like him expensive now?" Fourth aunt Kong couldn't help but gossip, thinking that if the price was cheap, she might buy one too. Not only could they help with work, but it could also prevent villains from finding their way to the house. It was also a matter of face, so why not do it?
The most crucial thing she noticed was that the Heng family seemed to be getting wealthier. Look, they've added two more servants. Even the old Wu in their house was temporarily borrowed from Ah Heng.
It was said to compensate everyone for adhering to the rules and not being able to go far for rewards.
She was quite happy, but the benefits couldn't last long. Unfortunately, she had become accustomed to the hardworking old Wu, and she also thought about the life of a wealthy lady, giving rise to such thoughts.
