Strict Wife Of The '70s Manages The Household

Chapter 186

He was going to scale the wall, but he found that it had sort of toppled. Instinctively, his first reaction was suspecting that there was a burglary.

However, he didn’t hear any sort of movement anywhere, so perhaps the wall wasn’t sturdy enough since it rained previously.

He went straight into the yard as he walked around the wall. He didn’t hear anything suspicious and it didn’t look like the house had been burglarised, so he went ahead to knock on the back door.

At this time, Zhao Jianshe and Skinny were hiding in the dark and didn’t dare to breathe. If they retreated then, they wouldn’t face many tragic situations later on. After all, thieves would usually retreat the moment they were at risk of discovery; who would remain just to be caught?

But Zhao Jianshe’s logic had been carried away by the possibility of obtaining a huge sum of 1,500 Yuan!

He immediately clenched the wooden stick in his hand and wanted to give this ‘colleague’ a good, physical greeting.

Unexpectedly, Han Qingsong’s senses were rather sharp and he immediately picked up on the slight rustling sound from the darkness. He raised his foot and kicked towards the darkness—

That kick was so powerful that Zhao Jianshe immediately changed his mind and quickly said, “Brother, we are comrades!”

Han Qingsong didn’t move, but he immediately determined that there were four people in total.

As the four of them didn’t hear him yelling or exclaiming that there were thieves, they were even more convinced that Han Qingsong was another potential robber who came for the money.

Zhao Jianshe said in a low voice, “This brother from said village, are you here to steal the money or steal the woman?”

Then, he let out a wretched laugh.

Han Qinghua had mentioned that Lin Lan was actually quite a beauty, so he had warned that without her husband at home, the bachelors in the village might be easily swayed by temptation.

Han Qingsong’s chest immediately burst into anger— Han Qinghua’s worries were indeed justified.

“What about you?” His voice was low and magnetic, which was especially enchanting on rainy nights.

Han Qingsong had been away from home all year round and hadn’t held much of a conversation with Liu Chunhe. Hence, even though Liu Chunhe heard him, with his voice becoming lower and hoarser after a gruesome more-than-ten-mile trip, he wasn’t able to identify the owner of the voice.

“Hey, brother, we can work together since you’re pretty skilled. Once we get the money, we can split it into five parts.”

Naturally, it was a fake offer. Zhao Jianshe didn’t want to give any part of the 1,500 Yuan to anyone else, but he had to give consideration to the 4 other partners who helped. Otherwise, things would become messy afterwards.

Han Qingsong was now sure that the house was still safe from their stunts, so he let out a breath of relief. His body wasn’t as tense as it was before.

“Where are you from?”

“You don’t have to know where we’re from, as long as you are aware that we are now on the same team.”

Zhao Jianshe was proud, but he secretly poked Liu Chunhe to identify this man.

Liu Chunhe couldn’t tell, so he suspected that this person was not from the village.

Zhao Jianshe knew that they couldn’t fight here lest they attract any attention, so he had no choice but to rope in the outsider for now to secure their common goal.

Han Qingsong snorted and said nothing.

Zhao Jianshe asked Liu Chunhe and Shorty to keep an eye on Han Qingsong while he and Skinny went to open the door.

The item that was hanging by the door was taken down by Skinny, who used the thin iron sheet to slide through the edge of the door, forcing their way in.

As soon as the door opened, Zhao Jianshe rushed in first.
