"Are you just used to stealing things and can't stand seeing others do well? He Chen, let's go inside quickly, so she won't come and steal from our house again."
"Did you buy a lock for the bicycle? Lock it up quickly, lock the door too, and maybe get a wolfdog, since some people can even pick locks. It's too dangerous."
Ye Manman didn't wait for Li Hongmei or the onlookers outside to react; she slammed the door shut with a bang.
She also pulled down the latch from the inside.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and some started to gossip.
"That bicycle was bought with her own dowry, so what's Li Hongmei so envious about? She wouldn't be thinking of taking it back, would she?"
"My goodness, are there people this shameless? She even stole their money a few days ago."
"Truly, a leopard can't change its spots. He Chen's wife did the right thing. We'd better go home and lock our doors, lest certain people get envious when they see something nice. This person can pick locks, after all."
