Chapter 91 Don't Cry

"What nonsense are you thinking? Of course, it's about someone alive! Break their legs and tie them up!"

As soon as Liu Wen finished speaking, Baozi grabbed a horsewhip and started hitting people.

In just a short while, Li Er and Li San were lying on the ground groaning in pain.

Seeing that something was wrong, Granny Li on the carriage tried to sneak away, but Yantai kicked her in the buttocks, sending her sprawling face-first to the ground.

Seeing Baozi approaching, Granny Li scrambled to her feet and hurriedly begged for mercy, "Great hero, we were blind to your greatness, please let us go!"

Liu Wenshu waved his fan, "Now you know how to beg for mercy? Weren't you very arrogant just now? The Liu family? Who are you in the Liu family? Tell me and I'll be scared!"

This was the first time he had ever seen someone surnamed Liu act so arrogantly and bully others.

Li Er spoke up: "We are people from Young Master Liu's side! The Young Master Liu who came first in the provincial examination!"

Yantai, standing nearby, exclaimed, "Young master, there really are people in the carriage! They're all stuffed into sacks!"

Seeing this, Granny Li hurriedly explained, "Those are maids prepared for Young Master Liu. They were all bought from the countryside. This was Young Master Liu's idea. It has nothing to do with us. We are just servants who run errands!"

"Yes, yes, we're just errand runners! Please spare us, sir! Don't break our legs!"

Liu Wenshu laughed upon hearing this. "A maidservant or errand girl prepared for me? How come I don't know that?"

"Who are you……"

The three of them looked at Liu Wenshu as if they had seen a ghost.

"I am the young master Liu you've been talking about!"

Liu Wenshu was amused.

Yantai's voice came from inside the carriage again, "Young master, it's Erya and Sanya from Lady Ye's family!"

Yantai carried the three burlap sacks off the carriage.

Upon seeing Er Ya and San Ya, both still wearing the hair ornaments he had given them, Liu Wenshu's face darkened.

"Break the legs of these three men, tie them up, and hand them over to Magistrate Wu. Tell them what happened and that they dared to impersonate my men; they're asking for trouble."

"yes."

Baozi stomped on the legs of three people and broke them.

Then, during a casual argument, he knocked the person unconscious.

"Why won't this girl wake up!" No matter what Yantai did, he couldn't wake Er Ya and San Ya.

Baozi glanced at them and said, "Young master, these three little girls have probably been drugged. Just splash some water on their faces."

Yantai hurriedly grabbed the water from the kettle and splashed it on Er Ya's face.

Er Ya slowly woke up, "You... saved... Liu..."

Upon seeing Liu Wenshu's face clearly, Er Ya screamed, "Young Master Liu! You're actually a beggar!"

Er Ya looked like the sky had fallen and burst into tears instantly.

Liu Wenshu laughed in anger, and hit Er Ya on the head with his fan, "You little brat, you're so sharp-tongued! You're the one who's a beggar! It was this young master who saved you, otherwise you would have been taken away by the beggars."

Er Ya then remembered and was terrified when she saw the three people who had been knocked unconscious.

Upon seeing Sanya on the ground, he hurriedly called out, "Sanya, Sanya."

The inkstone spilled water, but neither Sanya nor Hongmei woke up.

Liu Wenshu frowned. "This little girl is still young. We don't know if the dosage is too strong. We need to take her to the clinic immediately."

"Sanya, Sanya, wake up, waaaah..."

...

...

Stone came to deliver a message to Daya.

Daya was very worried and was just about to lock the door and go to the village to look for him when Zhang Erniu came again.

Da Ya ignored her and locked the door before leaving.

Seeing that he was unwilling to speak, Zhang Erniu mustered up his courage and chased after him, "Da Ya, how can you understand my feelings? I am truly sincere towards you. Don't listen to your stepmother. She can't stand to see you doing well."

"Whether you're sincere or not, it's none of my business. Get out of my way."

Da Ya's face darkened.

Seeing her get angry, Zhang Erniu was stunned, at a loss, and didn't know what to do.

A man from the village passed by and, seeing this, teased, "Zhang Erniu, if you want to marry a woman, you'd better have a thick skin. Hug her, give her a kiss, marry her, and then coax her nicely!"

"Women, once you marry them and sleep with them, they'll behave!"

Zhang Erniu's face turned red upon hearing this.

Seeing that the person had left and there was no one around, he suddenly had an impulse: if he kissed Daya, would Daya have no choice but to marry him?

"Da Ya, I..."

Da Ya's face changed. "Get out of here! Zhang Erniu, if you dare to stop me again, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Da Ya, I really like you, and I want to marry you. Please believe me!"

Just as Zhang Erniu was about to pounce, someone grabbed him by the back of the neck.

"You little brat, you're no good either! How could you lay a hand on such a young girl!"

Chu Xiujie clicked his tongue in disapproval.

Zhang Erniu was startled and ran away as soon as Song Lai took off running.

Seeing this, Chu Xiujie clicked his tongue and looked at Daya, "Daya, where are your parents!"

He came looking for that kid, but he never expected to run into this.

Lin Anyuan's eldest daughter, although young, is quite pretty in this rural area, no wonder she attracts attention.

"I, I..."

Daya's heart pounded, and she gripped the wooden hairpin tightly in her hand. If Chu Xiujie hadn't caught Zhang Erniu, she...

"Hey, snap out of it, I'm asking you a question!" Chu Xiujie waved his hand.

Daya said, "My sister is missing. My mother went to look for her. My father... my father is at the county government office."

"You're lying! I went to the county government office, but I didn't see your father!"

After Chu Xiujie finished speaking, he went straight to Da Ya's house.

Seeing that the gate was locked, he climbed over the wall and jumped inside.

"you……"

Da Ya hurriedly opened the door and went inside; Chu Xiujie was already eating in the kitchen.

The pot contained the rice she had prepared, still warm, and there was also a lot of dried meat next to it.

Chu Xiujie glanced at Da Ya while holding the bowl, "What's wrong? I'm your benefactor, and you're not happy about eating a bowl of rice? I haven't eaten all day, I'm starving!"

After saying that, he began to wolf down his food, finishing all the rice in the pot. Then he picked up a ladle, scooped up a spoonful of water from the water vat, and drank it.

After eating and drinking his fill, Chu Xiujie let out a burp.

"Comfortable."

Looking at Daya at the kitchen door, he said, "Your cooking skills are pretty good, little girl. How about becoming a cook?"

In the countryside, only this little girl and her mother could cook such delicious food.

"You...you get out of our house," Daya said, mustering her courage.

Chu Xiujie chuckled, "Why would I go out? I'll just wait here for your father to come back. You can run away, but you can't hide!"

"Where's your mother? She's not coming back either, is she?"

...

...

Ye Wan's face was covered in sweat.

She went to the Liu family to ask Liu Wenshu for help, but Liu Wenshu was not there, and the people inside were impatient with her, let alone help her find someone.

The report was filed with the authorities, and Officer Li did help look for the person, but they couldn't find him for a while.

As darkness fell, Ye Wan, completely lost and disoriented, ran straight up the mountain.

The moment I saw Lin Anyuan in the cave, tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.

"Lin Anyuan, I lost Er Ya and San Ya, you can scold me! You can even hit me!"
