Time to Settle the Score

The next morning, not long after dawn, a few children ran around the village and shouted, "Hurry up and take a look. The Gu family has caught thieves."

"It's Liangzi, Big Qian, and Gousheng. I heard that they were caught on the spot when they were stealing."

An adult, who was about to go to the field, could not help but stop the children. "What did you say just now? Who caught those hooligans?"

The children were still holding the candy in their hands. As they licked it lovingly and reluctantly, they said, "It's the Gu family that wants to build a green brick house in our village. The four of them have been arrested. Now, they're at Second Aunt Chen's house."

"What?" An adult beside him had a look of disbelief on his face. "Doesn't the Gu family not even have a strong laborer? They still have the ability to catch those hooligans? Don't tell me it's the opposite."
