Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

Chapter 257: The Thief Gets Beaten

After finishing his meal, Sha Zhu left without closing the door or cleaning the table.

Bang Geng saw this and quickly called Xiao Dang to watch at the gate, telling her to hug Sha Zhu's thighs and stop him when she saw him coming back. He then ran into Sha Zhu's house.

Banggeng went into Shazhu's house as if he was familiar with the place. When he came out, his clothes were bulging with something. It was Shazhu's new radio!

"Brother, what's in your clothes?" Xiaodang asked curiously.

"Don't worry about it. When I have money, I'll buy you some buns!"

After saying that, Banggeng ran out of the yard.

Not long after, Shazhu came back. He gritted his teeth and cleaned the table, preparing to wash the dishes while listening to the radio.

"Where's my radio? It was there just now, how come it disappeared in a moment?"

The first thing Shazhu thought of was Banggeng. There were many people in the yard, and generally no outsider dared to come in and steal things.

So he went straight to Jia's house without even washing the dishes.

Normally it would be fine if he just took some food, after all, he was a kid and he was greedy. But this time, what he lost was a radio! He had finally got it, and he hadn't even listened to it yet!

"Qin Huairu, where is your son Banggeng? Is he at home?" Sha Zhu was so anxious that he didn't even call her Sister Qin.

Qin Huairu was also puzzled when she heard this: "What's wrong, Zhuzi, why are you looking for Banggeng?"

Sha Zhu scratched his head and said, "My new radio is missing. I want to ask if Bang Geng took it."

Qin Huairu's face darkened and she said, "Zhuzi, what do you mean? Are you trying to say that Banggeng stole your things?"

"Although Bang Geng likes to go to your room, he only comes to get some snacks. It was you who agreed to it."

"Xiaodang, where is your brother?" Qin Huairu saw that Banggeng was not there, so she called Xiaodang and asked.

"My brother went out to play."

"Did he take the radio from Uncle Zhuzi's house? Tell mom the truth."

Xiaodang thought about it and shook his head and said no.

Banggeng stuffed the radio into his clothes, and Xiaodang really didn't see it.

Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief: "See? If you can't trust Bang Geng, you should at least trust Xiao Dang, right?"

Seeing that Xiao Dang's expression was indeed genuine, Sha Zhu could only apologize to Qin Huairu and then walked out:

If it's not Bang Geng, then who is it?

Fortunately, Jia Zhang was not there just now, otherwise she would have known that she had wronged Bang Geng and would have made a fuss again.

When I was leaving, Banggeng came back skipping and jumping with his hands in his pockets.

Sha Zhu asked casually: "Bang Geng, have you ever seen anyone enter my house?"

Banggeng's heart tightened, and he stammered, "I don't know. When I was out, Lele was playing in the open space. Why don't you ask him?"

Banggeng is a smart guy. He didn't say that Lele had been to Shazhu's house. He only said that Lele was playing in the open space in front of Shazhu's house.

Sha Zhu didn't think much about it and said, "Okay, go and have fun. I'll go to the uncle's house and ask."

After saying that, Sha Zhu went to the old man's house.

After Bang Geng returned home, Qin Huairu was still worried, so she pulled Bang Geng over and asked, "Did you take the radio from Sha Zhu's house?"

Bang Geng subconsciously held his pockets tightly.

"What's in your pocket? Take it out!"

As Banggeng took out fifty yuan, Qin Huairu now understood everything.

Qin Huairu was so angry that she was shaking all over. She raised her hand to hit the stick, but then slowly put it down.

She sighed helplessly and turned to Jia Zhang: "Mom, you saw it, right? Let's see what we should do if it happens again!"

Jia Zhang was completely panicked. She hugged Bang Geng and said, "My dear grandson, why are you so confused? Usually, you take some snacks from Sha Zhu's house and complain, and grandma has never said a bad thing about you. But this radio... it's not an ordinary thing!"

"Now we're in big trouble! What should we do..." Jia Zhang said as she slapped her thigh.

……

The uncle's house next door.

Sha Zhu was severely scolded by Yi Zhonghai.

"What do you mean, Silly Zhu? Do you think it was Lele who took your radio?"

"without….

I just wanted to come over and ask Lele if he saw it. Banggeng said he saw Lele playing in front of my house. "

Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu angrily, "You! You suspect the child without knowing the truth! Lele is so obedient and sensible, how could he do such a thing?"

Sha Zhu looked aggrieved: "I was just asking casually, I was just anxious."

Yi Zhonghai said seriously: "You seem to be relieved, but Lele is still feeling wronged! Come with me to the Jia family now, and we must clear Lele's name today!"

After saying that, Yi Zhonghai held Lele's hand with one hand and pushed Sha Zhu with the other hand and walked towards Jia's house.

At the Jia family, Qin Huairu was discussing countermeasures with Jia Zhangshi when she saw the real boss coming to the door...

Well, there is no need to discuss countermeasures.

"Banggeng, let me ask you, did you really see Lele go to Shazhu's house?" Yi Zhonghai asked seriously.

Bang Geng lowered his head and blushed.

Qin Huairu was also embarrassed, but had to stand up and apologize: "I'm sorry, uncle, it was Banggeng who was ignorant and took the radio from Zhuzi's house. I...I will go and get the radio back in a while!"

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a small matter either. If Zhuzi doesn't care, then the matter will just pass."

"But if this gets reported to the authorities, Bang Geng will have to go to juvenile detention."

Yi Zhonghai wanted to teach Banggeng a lesson, but before Qin Huairu could plead, Shazhu took the initiative to agree: "Hey, how can I bother with a child? Now that we know what happened, just take the radio back."

Yi Zhonghai's frown relaxed. Since Lele's suspicion had been cleared, Yi Zhonghai was happy to save trouble. He said to Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang with a stern face, "Banggeng is already in elementary school. If he is not properly educated, something bad will happen sooner or later."

"Hey, hey! I get it, sir!" Qin Huairu nodded repeatedly in shame.

"Well, I'll take Bang Geng to get the radio back first to avoid any more trouble."

"I'm so sorry, Zhuzi..."

After saying that, Qin Huairu picked up Banggeng's ear and walked out, pretending not to hear his screams.

……

On the way back, Qin Huairu had a gloomy face and didn't say a word.

When they arrived at Sha Zhu's house, Qin Huairu asked Bang Geng to return the radio to Sha Zhu and apologize to him.

Banggeng reluctantly handed the radio to Shazhu and whispered "I'm sorry".

Sha Zhu looked at Bang Geng and thought about comforting him with a few words, but when he saw Qin Huairu's stern look, he gave up.

The incident of Banggeng stealing the radio just passed by, and the residents in the yard didn't even know that it had happened.

But for Bang Geng, it is far from over.

Jia family.

After locking the door, Qin Huairu picked up the feather duster on the table and rushed towards Banggeng.

Bang bang bang~

"You're allowed to steal!"

"How dare you frame others!"

"Tell me, will you dare to do it again in the future?"

Bang Geng begged for mercy while running around. Jia Zhang just turned her head away, not daring to look at him or to dissuade him.

The main reason was that she was also frightened by Yi Zhonghai’s words: stealing a radio will result in sentencing to a juvenile detention center!

Banggeng is in a juvenile detention center, so what will happen to her retirement in the future?

Qin Huairu stopped beating him, threw the feather duster away, and sat on the stool, panting.

Seeing this, Bang Geng threw himself into Jia Zhang's arms:

"Ouch, grandma, it hurts so much."

"It's all the fault of Lele who has no parents. Grandma, I hate him!"

Hearing Banggeng's crying, Qin Huairu became even angrier and pointed at Banggeng and cursed, "You still have the nerve to blame others. If you hadn't stolen other people's things, how could these things have happened?"

After saying that, he wanted to get the feather duster.

Jia Zhang felt sorry for her grandson being beaten, and quickly protected the stick, muttering in dissatisfaction: "Alright, alright, I've beaten him and scolded him, he knows he's wrong."

Qin Huairu sighed helplessly. She didn't want to treat Banggeng so harshly, but if she didn't discipline him properly, it would be too late when he made a big mistake.

But looking at Bang Geng who was well protected by Jia Zhang, she couldn't find a place to attack, so she could only say bitterly: "Mom, just spoil him! Sooner or later, he will cause trouble!"
