“No, if there are more men or people, we won’t be able to beat them. If we get desperate, we’ll be in trouble.” No matter how important the vegetable was, it was not as crucial as preserving his life.

“No, the ones who steal the vegetables are the uncles and aunts in our village. The real thieves don’t care about those vegetables,” Su Qing asserted, Su Qing was more experienced than Su Wen as she encountered thieves alongside her mother in the past.

“Big sister, don’t go out. I’ll go take a look.” Every time something happened, the elder sister would confront the situation. Su Qing had been eager to show her courage, and now the opportunity had finally arrived.

“No!” Su Wen protested. How could she allow Su Qing to go out alone? “Let’s go together! ”

“Alright then!”

After their discussion, the two turned around to find Su Xiu who already changed and waiting at the door. “Hurry up. If you’re late, the thief will escape,” she urged them.

Su Wen was rendered speechless.

Su Qing was speechless too.

They exchanged glances, reluctant to let Su Xiu go, but they dismissed the idea. Both sisters realized that despite Su Xiu’s honesty and hard work, she was incredibly stubborn.

Once she made up her mind, there was no changing it. Su Wen conceded defeat in this regard. She wouldn’t back down when she needed to be strong, nor would she seek danger when she should be cautious.

The three sisters grabbed the only two flashlights at home and wore rubber shoes that they wore for rainy days. As they stepped out, Su Xue hurriedly caught up with them.

“Wait for me.”

“Why are you up too?”

“You guys made so much noise at the door. It’s hard not to notice!” Su Xue retorted.

Su Wen glared at Su Xue. “Children shouldn’t join in. Go home. It’s not safe for the fifth sister to be alone.”

“Why didn’t you take me along?” Su Xue wanted to contribute to her family as well.

“Be good, be obedient. It’s not safe for the fifth sister to be alone after you leave,” Su Wen reasoned, finding it quite challenging to handle her sisters. They used to be so obedient when she first transmigrated! Whatever she said was taken as truth, but now everything seemed to go astray.

One sister was more stubborn than the other!

“That’s right! Big sister is right,”

Fortunately, there was still A’Xiu (Su Xiu) who supported her unwaveringly. Su Wen felt grateful for her.

“Quick, if you’re curious, just peek through the window behind you,” Su Wen suggested to Su Xue.

Su Xue anticipated this would happen. Her elder sisters treated her like a child, so she had no choice but to comply. She handed over the copper gong she was holding. “Here, take this. If you find the thief, hit this. The villagers will come out to help catch the thief when they hear it. It’ll scare the thief away too.”

“Good!”

After escorting Su Xue home, the three sisters wasted no time and headed to the vegetable garden. Standing amidst the grass on the field’s ridge, their eyes, now accustomed to the darkness, could vaguely discern a figure picking vegetables with a bag slung over her back.

Judging from the figure, it was undoubtedly a woman, who was slightly plump and middle-aged.

Su Wen scanned the area cautiously. Once they confirmed no one else was around, the three sisters looked at each other. One of them struck the gong, another shouted to catch the thief, and the last one aimed the flashlight at the thief accurately.

Su Wen had excellent eyesight, free from any visual impairments. She could see the flustered face of Zhang Chunxiang under the bright light. Su Wen cursed inwardly as Zhang Chunxiang was stealing vegetables in the middle of the night. Su Wen was speechless.

She should have thought about it long ago, Zhang Chunxiang and the action of stealing vegetables were not incompatible.” “Catch the thief! Catch the thief quickly!”

“Dong dong dong…”

Zhang Chunxiang, who was engrossed in her vegetable pilferage and calculating her potential earnings at the market the next day, was now terrified. She hastily abandoned her loot and fled.

In her panic, she stepped into a small ditch that was specially used for watering the vegetable garden, splashing water and mud all over herself..
