Courtyard House: The eldest son of the He family marries a woman who brings him good fortune.

Page 274

He immediately tried to run away.

The women were so frightened that they immediately lay down on the ground, too scared to move.

But after running a few steps, I realized something was wrong.

Whose chicken is it?

They should still be in the courtyard house, how could they have tracked them down here?

Besides, even if they find their chickens are missing, they can't know that he stole them.

He's outside the city right now.

There's no one here, how could anyone have found us?

She quickly pulled them aside, saying, "Don't be afraid, we won't be discovered."

He Hongyang saw that he was still being stubborn.

"Whoosh!"

Another pebble was shot at.

176. Jia Dongxu, why are you crying?

This hit Jia Dongxu's leg squarely.

"thump!"

He immediately knelt down on the ground.

I no longer have the confidence I used to have.

He covered his head with his hands, trembling, and said, "I won't do it again, I'll never do it again."

But after kneeling on the ground for a long time, there wasn't a single sound around.

I tried to get up carefully.

Jia Zhangshi pulled her back, saying, "Someone must have discovered us. Don't get up."

Jia Dongxu, however, believed that it was all just a coincidence.

Even if others find out, they'll only find out that they're making a fire here.

They had no idea there was something below.

He thought he was incredibly smart.

Luckily, it was buried in the ground and made into beggar's chicken.

If you roast it on a tree branch, it will definitely be discovered immediately.

"Good sir, we were just passing by and wanted to warm ourselves by the fire. We meant no harm. Please, please stop hitting us."

Jia Zhangshi followed up, saying, "This is my son, and I am his mother. I assure you that we were just passing by and wanted to dig up some wild vegetables to make a fire for warmth."

This mother and son are both liars.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Two more times.

It was aimed directly at the feet of the two people.

What scared them was that they cried out for their parents.

"Oh my god, I'll never do it again."

"Please stop hitting me, please stop hitting me."

Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru didn't dare to move when they saw the two of them being beaten.

They weren't thinking about food anymore; they just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.

Pulling Jia Dongxu aside, she whispered, "Should we hurry up and leave?"

He went to great lengths to steal the chicken, and then led them outside the city.

With the food almost in my mouth, how could I possibly leave now!

The fragrance grew stronger and stronger.

Carefully, he used his hands to dig through the ashes on the ground.

"Everyone, let's get to work quickly, take the chicken out, and then run."

"Let's find a secluded spot and eat it secretly."

Several people kept prying at it.

Sha Zhu couldn't help but say, "So they bury the chicken to make beggar's chicken. This Jia Dongxu has quite the appetite."

After it's done.

Ignoring the heat, he grabbed the chicken and said, "Let's run!"

The moment he stood up.

A voice descended from the sky.

"stop!"

Everyone stopped immediately.

I didn't dare look back at all.

"Hero, spare our lives! We were just passing by."

"What do you mean by just passing by? You came here specifically for this purpose. That chicken you're carrying, was it stolen?"

Startled, Jia Dongxu quickly denied it: "No, it's my own house."

Why did my own chickens run so far away?

Why is this voice so familiar?

How could he know what he was holding?

Could it be?

Jia Dongxu secretly glanced back.

He was so scared when he saw it that he almost collapsed to the ground!

The people behind them were He Hongyang and Sha Zhu!

I never dreamed they would catch up with me.

I never expected that he would catch me!

How exactly did he find this place? How did he discover him?

Jia Dongxu didn't know whether he should turn around or not.

I don't even dare to move now.

He could only stay in the same position and keep complaining.

"Brother He, I didn't mean to steal your chickens, please forgive me."

The other three women, upon hearing that he had stolen chickens from the He family, knew that He Hongyang had already caught up with them and was right behind them.

They felt like they wanted to die.

Is Jia Dongxu insane? How dare he steal the He family's chickens?

Even if he stole from Zhang Dajun, the street director, he shouldn't have stolen from He Hongyang's house.

Has he forgotten the lesson learned from the Liu family?

Because Liu Haizhong said he didn't have enough mutton soup, He Hongyang never improved his life again.

I wonder how he will treat Jia Dongxu.

Will we stop him from improving his life in the future?

They all wanted to go up and kick him a few times.

He's usually quite timid, so why is he so audacious today, daring to steal He Hongyang's chicken?

fortunately!

They didn't eat the chicken.

If they return the items to He Hongyang now, will he forgive them?

But then I thought about it again.

It has already been made into beggar's chicken, so how can it remain unchanged?

Jia Zhangshi was the first to react.

She had to ask He Hongyang for forgiveness on behalf of her son.

He turned around shakily, tears streaming down his face.

“Hongyang, we were wrong. We had no idea this chicken belonged to you. Please forgive him for the sake of us all living in the same yard.”

He slapped Jia Dongxu directly: "Hurry up and apologize."

Jia Dongxu then realized what was happening.

She kept bowing to him, saying, "I was wrong, it was all my fault. We didn't eat a single bite of this chicken, and we already made it into beggar's chicken for you. Can we give it back to you now?"

As she spoke, she picked up the chicken and walked towards He Hongyang.

He hoped that He Hongyang would accept the apology, which would mean that He Hongyang accepted the apology.

But he only glanced at it.

"You've ruined this chicken, what are we going to do about it?"

Jia Dongxu was terrified that others would find out about this.

If the factory finds out, this would be considered theft.

I might not even earn 20 yuan by then.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I'll pay you back."

"That's what you said."

"Just name your price, and I promise I won't haggle."

Madam Jia looked at her son with worry, wondering what price He Hongyang would ask for.

"50 yuan, pay me back within three days."

50 yuan?

Even if you sold him, he wouldn't be worth 50 yuan.

Their family is completely broke every month, so where is he supposed to get so much money?

"Brother He, could you lower the price a bit? We don't have anything of value at home, so we simply can't afford that much money."

"Didn't you just say you guaranteed you wouldn't haggle?"

"Snapped!"

Jia Dongxu slapped himself hard: "What I said was pure nonsense, so just stop talking nonsense."

"Then it's 60, not a penny less."

Let Sha Zhu take the chicken from his hand.

"If the money isn't raised in three days, then we'll report this to the local street office."

Why didn't the price drop by a single penny? Instead, it went up by ten yuan.

He shouldn't have said that.
