When Lin Yuan hurried back to the Lin family's hamlet, the thief had already been tied up and forced to kneel in the old ancestral hall of the village.
The ancestral hall was a place where the tablets of those who had made great contributions to the village over the past century were enshrined. It would not be opened lightly unless there were significant matters. The last time Lin Jianling led people to Lin Yuan's house to catch the adulterers, the ancestral hall had not been disturbed, but this time, with the capture of the thief, he had been brought here, which showed the seriousness of the situation.
Seeing Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng arrive, Ding Ming and Ding Liang consciously stood by their side, nudging their mouths toward the figure kneeling in the middle of the ancestral hall.
The thief, that was him.
