Chapter 112 The County Magistrate Must Take Care of This

Liuzi said indignantly, "He's an official appointed by the imperial court. How can we just ignore him? Bandits are rampant. If anything happens to us, he will be blamed."

Li Mumu shook her head and could only say that he was too naive.

"I'll go right away." Liuzi said.

"Wait!" Mr. Gu suddenly spoke.

"Old man, please don't stop me. I want to see if the Dingyang County Magistrate will do anything about it."

Old Master Gu chuckled. "I'm not trying to stop you. I'm just reminding you that you must tell the county magistrate that we're all waiting for you here until noon. If you don't come back, we'll send a pigeon to Suzhou to explain the matter."

"Remember?"

Liuzi was a little confused, "I remember."

"Go!"

"Grandpa, where did we get the pigeons?" Liuzi asked curiously.

Old Master Gu glared at him and said, "If you want to live, you have to say this."

Liuzi suddenly came to his senses. If the county magistrate was colluding with the bandits, he would be in great danger if he went there. But if that was the case, he dared not act rashly and had to send troops.

After all, he didn't want the news of his collusion with bandits to get out.

He looked at Mr. Gu gratefully, then hurried to Dingyang County.

Old Man Tian watched the yamen runners deal with the corpse, his legs trembling with fear. "What should we do? The bandits won't give up. If we let one of them go, he will definitely go and deliver the letter."

Gu Mingjing smiled, "Old man, even if we don't let anyone go, don't they know what happened here if they can't wait for anyone?"

"Ah... this..." Old Man Tian thought it made sense, "but what can we do? They're coming for revenge."

"What are you afraid of? The soldiers will be here soon." Gu Mingjing laughed and stopped explaining. Instead, he looked at Li Mumu, who had taken back the shuttlecock. "Mumu, what a trick of killing with a borrowed knife. If I'm not mistaken, the next step is to sow discord?"

Li Mumu quickly put away the shuttlecock, otherwise if someone picked it up and smelled the powder on it, they would get emotional. "Third uncle, no wonder I'm so smart, it's all because of you."

Gu Mingjing was amused, "My niece looks like her uncle, there's nothing wrong with that!"

Not only the three members of the Tian family, but many people knew about the big commotion just now and were standing at the door of the Tian family.

"Old Tian, ​​what were you thinking? Wouldn't it be over if you just sent your daughter away? Now that you've made such a fuss, everyone in our village will be killed by you."

Old Man Tian lowered his head, like a child who had made a mistake.

Li Mumu looked at the man who spoke without hesitation. Although he was pitiful for being implicated, what he said was too much. "Then why don't you send your daughter there?"

"I...my daughter doesn't like her." said the man.

"Old Tian, ​​you're the one who caused this trouble. When the bandits come, you'll have to kowtow and admit your mistake. And Xueni, it doesn't matter who you marry. Boss Hu is not bad either, he's well-fed and well-off. Why are you making such a fuss?"

Tian Xueni was also furious, "Then why don't you get married?"

"I... I am a man." The man said again.

Li Mumu really didn't want to listen to this man, so the next moment, the man suddenly had a stomachache, covered his butt and went into the toilet, and didn't come out for a long time.

Seeing the people complaining and the three members of the Tian family being so naive, Gu Yuru couldn't help but speak up, "Fellow villagers, listen to me. This time it was Miss Xue Ni, next time it could be your sisters, your daughters. Do you also want your loved ones to be kidnapped by bandits?"

Everyone was silent. After all, a needle only hurts when it pricks your body.

"But can you stop the bandits from coming to our village again? If not, what's the point of saying this?" A man came out and retorted.

Gu Yuru looked at her family behind her and asked, "Why not?"

Old Master Gu nodded, agreeing with his daughter.

"Fellow villagers, since we are in charge of this matter, we will naturally take care of it. Don't worry, we will not leave until the problem is resolved." Gu Mingyu stood up and said.

Li Yuan pulled Gu Yuru's arm aside and said in a low voice, "Yuru, does your family really want to take care of this?"

Gu Yuru rolled her eyes at him and pulled back her sleeves. "Didn't you hear it?"

"I can't do anything about it. You know that the Dingyang County Magistrate is colluding with the bandits, so it's better to keep out of trouble. Even if you Gu family members can fight, the bandits are outnumbered and powerful, so we may not be able to win!"

Gu Yuru looked at Li Yuan and suddenly laughed, "Li Yuan, you said you were so afraid of death, how did you lead troops to fight in the past?"

"Leading troops to war is to protect the country, and naturally to protect the people. So, when the people are in trouble, why do you just want to escape?"

Li Yuan took a deep breath. "Yuru, I'm doing this for your sake. We're almost in the North. A gentleman's revenge is never too late. When we've redressed our wrongs, we can deal with these bandits later, right?"

That’s right, he is the bandit who was eliminated after he turned the tables.

But in the past few years, dozens more girls have been kidnapped and bullied to death.

Mother and daughter are connected by heart, and Gu Yuru also thought of this. "Li Yuan, if we leave, what will happen to Miss Xue Ni and her family? What will happen to the people in this village? Those are lives, real lives."

"But there are so many injustices in the world. How many of them can you, Gu Yuru, take care of?"

Gu Yuru frowned, "I can't take care of all the injustices, but I will take care of the few that I encounter!"

After Gu Yuru finished speaking, she took her daughter's hand and said, "Li Yuan, belated affection is worth less than grass, and belated justice is of no use to those who died in vain."

When the Li family saw how ferocious the bandits were, they all clamored to leave.

The Gu family didn't need to stop them, the villagers stopped them.

After all, in their opinion, the disaster was caused by them, so they want to leave without solving the problem?

No way.

They can't tell the difference between the Gu family and the Li family. They are all in the same group anyway.

The Li family members all blamed the Gu family for causing trouble, but Gu Mingjing's eyes scared them into shutting up.

After all, they saw Gu Mingjing killing the bandit. With just a slight twist, the neck was broken.

Gu Mingjing clenched his fists and asked, "Why is it so noisy?"

The next moment, there was no sound from the Li family.

Tian Xueni also took a clean cloth and handed it to Gu Mingjing at this time, "Brother Gu, your hand is injured, bandage it."

Gu Mingjing glanced at the wound and said, "It's okay. It's nothing. I've had many more serious injuries on the battlefield before."

Tian Xueni looked at him gratefully. "They're right. Actually, this is none of your business. You could have left here safely. If the government doesn't intervene, I still..."

"No." Gu Mingjing raised his voice. "Miss Tian, ​​don't be afraid. With us here, the bandits will never do anything to you! The Gu family has fought in battles for decades, all for the sake of ensuring the people live and work in peace. This time is no exception!"
