Xu Yunfei was so thirsty that his throat was smoking because the fried pancake he had eaten at noon was too salty and he had been fighting with the mad cow for a long time.
Fortunately, there was a water pump by the roadside in front of them. As if they had just escaped from a desert, they rushed towards the water pump and drank to their hearts 'content.
They arrived home at around three in the afternoon. Han Tuo often used a tricycle at home. Now that he was older, he had to help out with the chores at home, so he did not stay long and rode the tricycle home.
Liu Xiaoyu also went home to wash her clothes.
Xiao Ji was fiddling with a rag doll on the brick bed.
Xu Yunfei sat at the round table and counted the money he had spent today.
He had brought a total of 200 yuan to town, 5 yuan to repair the television, 11 yuan to buy a cake, 6 yuan for a pancake, and 24 yuan for four servings of pancake. In addition to the 5 yuan for the Egg Fried Rice he had treated to Dr. Liu from the town hospital, Dr. Liu had returned 20 yuan. In this way, he had actually spent 25 yuan today, which was completely within his expectations.
Xu Yunfei had become accustomed to such careful calculations.
This was also forced by the conditions. Otherwise, they would not have been able to open the pot long ago.
After Xu Yunfei finished calculating the bill, he stood up and stuffed 10 cents, 50 cents, 1 yuan, and 5 yuan into the mat on the north wall of the brick bed. He planned to put 10 yuan, 20 yuan, and 100 yuan into the big closet.
Xu Yunfei's house did not have any decent furniture. There was only this big wardrobe made of sandwich board, which contained some old clothes. Because he could not find a better place to put the money, he hid the disaster relief money under these clothes.
When he came to the big wardrobe, Xu Yunfei suddenly felt as if he had stepped on something. He moved his foot away and found a round object on the ground that was slightly larger than a one-yuan coin. He bent down and picked it up.
It was a small ornament carved from the bones of some kind of animal. It looked like a wolf's head.
A red string passed through the small hole on the wolf's ear. The red string had already turned black, probably because the owner of the accessory did not bathe often.
However, the red string was currently broken. Otherwise, it was unlikely that this accessory would appear here.
Xu Yunfei felt very strange when he took this ornament. Whose thing is this? He seemed to have seen it somewhere before!
"It's bad Si 'er's!"
Xu Yunfei looked at it for a moment and suddenly remembered that the last time he met him at the entrance of the village courtyard, he was wearing a wolf head ornament on his neck.
"Why are his things here?”
Xu Yunfei was shocked.
An extremely ominous feeling assaulted his heart.
She hurriedly opened the wardrobe and flipped through the old clothes. She saw that the place where the money was hidden was empty.
He shook the clothes one by one and searched. No matter how hard he searched, he could not find the disaster relief money.
In an instant, Xu Yunfei felt as if someone had poured a basin of ice water over his head. His entire body was frozen, and he immediately froze in front of the large wardrobe.
In order to get back the disaster relief money, he was bitten by the Tibetan Mastiff.
Could it be that the money was lost so easily?
That was a year's worth of living expenses for him and Xiao Ji!
He hated himself for being too careless.
The walls of the courtyard were low and could be easily flipped over.
Blackie was not at home either. Even if he was at home, it was useless. Dogs knew the gangsters in the village and did not bark or bite them.
The key was hidden in the shoe by the door. This was no secret. Even the fools in the village knew.
Or they could simply push open the window and enter.
The windows were left ajar. Due to the dilapidated house, the windows could not be locked at all.
Not to mention the place where the money was hidden. All thieves knew how to rummage under the clothes in the wardrobe.
"A thief who has been hacked into pieces!"
At this moment, Xu Yunfei gritted his teeth.
Bad Si 'er's things were left here. Needless to say, this money must have been taken by Bad Si' er. If he didn't ask for the money from Bad Si 'er, who else could he ask?
Xu Yunfei was so angry that he wanted to take the knife on top of the cabinet.
He focused and regained his senses.
"Calm down, calm down."
He reminded himself to retract his thoughts and hands.
He turned back to look at Xiao Ji. Xiao Ji was sitting on the brick bed and playing house with the doll. His face was filled with joy and he did not notice what was happening on his side.
Xu Yunfei thought for a moment and tidied up the clothes in the big wardrobe. Then he stood up and walked out of the house quickly.
Bad Fourth's house was only a few alleys away from Xu Yunfei's house.
Si 'er was famous for his drinking, gambling, and idleness in the village. He had been hanging out with the hooligans in the county town for some time and would bring one or two people around the village from time to time.
Xu Yunfei quickly walked into the yard of Bad Fourth's house. Bad Fourth's wife was coming out of the toilet while tying her pants.
"Fourth Sister-in-law, is Fourth Brother home?"
Xu Yunfei stopped and asked.
When Bad Fourth's wife saw that it was Xu Yunfei, she fastened her pants as if nothing had happened, straightened her dirty vest, and said,""It's Brother Yun Fei. Is there something urgent you need from him?”
Bad Fourth's wife could also tell that Xu Yunfei's expression was not good.
"Ah, there's something."
Xu Yunfei didn't want to talk nonsense before he saw the real person, so he said vaguely.
"He should be at the Go club now. Go to the Go club and look for him. Bottle is his father, and the Go club is his mother. Bottle and the Go club are closer than his biological parents!”
Bad Fourth's wife complained.
