A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 453 The Thief's Family Comes Knocking

"They're really bold, daring to steal things without even asking around about our family's situation."

It can be said that now, even if the villagers know that their family is rich, those hooligans and idlers dare not come to their house to steal things.

After all, Yun Jiao is small in stature, but she is truly ruthless when she hits people.

Those who didn't believe in superstition were all dealt with by her.

The three thieves were tied up, and the house had two dogs and a cat to watch over them, while everyone else went to sleep.

People came to their house very early the next morning.

Why are there three people tied up in your yard?

They were all strangers to me.

Grandma Yun immediately recounted what had happened the previous night.

"Oh dear, thief, serves you right!"

"Jiaojiao is really good; otherwise, it would be a disaster no matter whose house this thief goes to."

"Of course, we even found a knife on them."

While Yun Jiao was brushing her teeth, she heard a lively noise coming from her yard, and there were quite a few people there.

After washing his face, he came out and saw that many people from the village had come and were pointing and whispering around the three thieves who were tied to the tree.

Does anyone recognize these three?

"Looks a little familiar."

“Yesterday, the dogs in the village started barking loudly, and I said I heard some kind of scream, thinking I must have misheard.”

“You’re quite far from the village, otherwise we would have come to help.”

"It's completely unnecessary, okay? Jiaojiao cleaned it all by herself."

When everyone heard that Yun Jiao had scared the three thieves by pretending to be a ghost, they all praised her.

"This guy looks like the fat guy from town."

A young man suddenly said.

Immediately, everyone surrounded the young man and asked him questions.

"You know Shuanzi? Tell me quickly, who are these people?"

"I only know that fat guy. He hangs out with a guy in town who runs a gambling den. I heard he used to be involved in the black market, but he got arrested and apparently was released later."

Upon hearing this, the villagers immediately exclaimed, "This doesn't sound like a good thing."

"Lin Hai, are you going to take them to the police station? Let's go together. We absolutely can't let these three thieves get away."

The three thieves looked miserable, and their pleas for mercy were to no avail.

He begged for mercy but was still beaten up, and finally was dragged to the police station by a large crowd.

The police learned about the situation and took their statements.

Yun Linhai handed over the daggers he had found on them.

"Comrade Zhao, these were found on them."

Zhao Jianguo took it and examined it carefully, then his expression turned serious.

"Thank you, Comrade Yun. We will investigate these people thoroughly. They are likely connected to several home invasion robberies. One family was awakened in the middle of the night, and the woman of the house was stabbed with a dagger. We have been searching for the culprit. If it is indeed them, then you have done our police station a great favor once again."

Yun Linhai and his group never expected that they would be implicated in several burglary cases.

"That would be best."

If so, then once the criminal is caught, there will be no more victims.

Yun Linhai and the others were also terrified. If it weren't for Jiaojiao, these guys would have really broken into their house with daggers in their hands, which would have been very dangerous.

After leaving the police station and returning home, Yun Linhai told his family about what had happened.

"Oh dear, from now on, I'll have to make sure to keep all the windows and things closed properly."

"Closing it up won't help. How can thieves be thieves if they don't have the skills to pick locks and break doors?"

That's right.

"Luckily, we have Jiaojiao. We also have two fierce dogs at home."

Thinking about it this way, I felt much safer.

They thought the matter of the thief was over.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, two families found out about their family.

"It was you, it was you, wasn't it? You're the ones who took my son to the police station! How could you be so heartless!"

Yun Jiao and her family were completely bewildered when strangers blocked their doorway and started yelling at them.

"Who are you?"

The two elderly men in the lead looked mean, sharp-tongued, and not to be trifled with.

“We are Liu Daqiang’s parents. We were arrested and taken to the police station by you some time ago. Please find a way to release us as soon as possible.”

One of the women, with her three children in tow, knelt down directly in front of them.

"Please, please let my husband go. Without him, how are we, a widow and her children, supposed to survive?"

With their singing, recitation, acting, and fighting, anyone who didn't know better would think that Yun Jiao and her family had done something heinous.

Wang Mei carried over a bamboo broom covered in chicken droppings.

"So you're the family members of those thieves?" The two old people were so shameless that they weren't afraid of being laughed at at all.

Yun Jiao munched on an apple while sitting to the side with her three older brothers watching the show.

They don't need to get involved in this kind of thing; they can just watch.

"Hey sis, wanna have some sunflower seeds? I remember we still have some salted sunflower seeds at home."

"want!"

"What are you saying? What are you saying? Your family was fine, wasn't it? You bunch of heartless people sent him to the police station. He's supposed to take care of us in our old age. Now that he's in there, are you going to take care of us? Anyway, I don't care. You have to get my son out, or we'll live in your house!"

After saying that, he plopped down on his seat.

Grandma Yun pointed at them and cursed, "I've never seen such shameless people as you!"

"Who's shameless? Your family is fine, and you didn't lose a single penny, so why are you arresting my son?"

As for the other family with children, they were still crying.

"Cry, cry, cry! Are you crying at a grave? Go cry at your own home. What are you doing crying at our doorstep? It's bad luck."

Wang Mei didn't stand on ceremony either.

"And you two old geezers, what do you mean our family is fine? No wonder you raised such a thieving and mischievous son, it turns out the upper beam is crooked and the lower beam is crooked too."

"With your two mean-spirited faces and your mentally unstable old hags, how could you possibly raise a decent person? It's your son's bad luck to have such irresponsible and unlucky-looking parents. I'd rather die and be reincarnated!"

The two old people were furious: "You, you shrew! A woman like you can never raise a decent son!"

Wang Mei said proudly, "I'm really sorry, but my eldest son is a proper college student. He got into Tsinghua and Peking University, and now he's working. He sends tens of yuan home every month."

The second son is also a craftsman, earning money to supplement the family income. Although the third and fourth sons are young, their future careers are not a concern.

They have a dedicated master to teach them; you shameless old folks could never catch up to me in your entire lives at flattering them!

Hehe, he swore at someone and then bragged about his own kid at the same time.

But it worked well; the two elderly people were so angry they rolled their eyes.

If they can't win an argument, they resort to being shameless.

"Anyway, if my son doesn't come back, we're going to stay at your house and not leave! Oh my god, everyone come and see, you heartless people sent my son to the police station..."

The woman also held her children and cried miserably: "Waaah, what will happen to the children after they lose their father? How am I, a woman, supposed to live with three children?"

But what they didn't know was just how much prestige Yun Jiao's family enjoyed in the village.

An aunt who was usually sharp-tongued spat out the sunflower seed shells from her mouth.

"If everyone were like you, with elderly people, children, and women coming to the police station to cry and then letting those who commit crimes go free, how would ordinary people like us survive?"

She rolled her eyes at the two elderly people: "The son you two raised should stay away from causing trouble for other families."

"What are you saying? My son didn't steal anything from your family, so what right do you have to meddle in other people's business?" You're just being nosy and worrying unnecessarily. I don't think someone like you can have a good son; you'll end up in jail sooner or later.

This is too much.

That auntie was quite formidable; she rolled up her sleeves, walked over, and slapped each of the two old people across the face.

"You really think I'm a pushover just because I haven't shown my true colors? You dare to come to our village to cause trouble and act so arrogantly? Who gave you the courage?"

"Ouch, someone hit me! I'm going to sue you and make you pay me back..."

Everyone was speechless; this was truly an attempt to squeeze money out of every available opportunity.

"Who hit you? Did anyone see it?"

Wang Mei added, "Anyway, I didn't see it. Didn't you two slap yourselves in a fit of madness?"

People around them chimed in, "That's right, who hit them? You guys did it yourselves."

"Who knows what crazy thing they'll do to come to our village?"

The two elderly people never expected that everyone in this village would be like this.

"You...you people are unreasonable!"

"Oh, so you're starting to talk about reason now? Don't you even know your own worth? You still have the nerve to talk about reason?"

The woman with three children saw that the entire village was siding with that family.

She held the child, minimizing her presence.

The two old people were furious and wanted to hit someone, but they were completely outmaneuvered by the group.

Finally, the village chief stepped forward.

"Everyone knows why your son was arrested. It's no use coming to them. The police station said they stole from several families and even injured someone with a knife. This isn't something that can be forgiven and released from jail. You'd better leave now."

The two elderly people continued to act like scoundrels: "Anyway, I don't care. Our son was sent to the police station by them, so we definitely have to find a way to get him out or pay them compensation. He's such a big man, we should at least pay them 50,000 yuan."

This time, without Yun Jiao's family even having to say a word, the villagers were in an uproar.

"Pah! You really think you're something special? You shameless old fools, fifty thousand? You won't even get a penny!"

"They're really out of their minds. Who do you think they can threaten? Village chief, aren't they looking for their son? Why don't you just send them to the police station?"

The village chief thought so too.

"Several men, take him to the police station. He won't leave? Carry him if you want!"

What a joke! Yun Jiao's family is the village's benefactor, having given their village so much help. If they really stood idly by, they wouldn't be human.

The woman with the child was shocked by the scene; she hadn't expected the villagers to be so united.

Aren't humans naturally inclined to sympathize with the weak?
Holding the child, she quickly slipped away while their attention was on the two elderly people.
