Chapter 78: Qingfeng Pavilion Robbery

He turned his head to look at the little girl who was illuminated by the fire not far away, with a beautiful smile, and then looked at the old man Gu who was walking briskly, and he had the answer in his heart.

That’s the opposite!

Lin Siyan cried all night, but no one sympathized with her, not even Li Mumu. She had already done her best by not adding fuel to the fire.

Although she didn't like punishing a woman in this way, she should also let her experience the collapse and despair of the mother she had harmed.

The next morning, everyone woke up slowly. The Li family members were still staring at each other in disbelief. The thin porridge that they once despised was now a delicacy that they could not have.

Li Mumu smelled the freshly cooked white rice porridge, which had a strong rice aroma and was paired with the fragrant salted duck egg yolk, exuding a salty and fragrant aroma. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Lin Siyan's eyes, which were swollen like peaches, and she was staring at their family with hatred.

It was as if they had instigated Zhang Xiang to bully her.

It's really ridiculous. She doesn't blame Zhang Xiang, the culprit, nor does she blame Li Yuan, the hypocritical and cowardly man, but instead insists on directing her hatred towards irrelevant people.

The weather is getting cold, especially in the morning and evening, so you need to wear thick clothes.

Gu Yuru was free, so she went to get some water, heated it up, and washed the faces of her family members. Although there was no need to be particular about it under the current circumstances, there were many women in the family, so it was still necessary for them to live more comfortably.

When she came back with the water, she was stopped by Lin Siyan.

"Get out of the way!" Gu Yuru shouted coldly.

Lin Siyan didn't move at all, her voice hoarse, "Are you satisfied now? Even if you hate me, I'm carrying Brother Yuan's child in my belly. Don't you think about him? Do you think that if I'm dirty, Brother Yuan will reconcile with you? Gu Yuru, I'm telling you, forget it."

Li Mumu was worried that her mother had already come over. She was so angry when she heard Lin Siyan's words that she laughed. Could it be that they still thought that her mother wanted to live with her scumbag father?

Even if the scumbag dad's thing is gilded, it shouldn't be that bad.

Gu Yuru looked up at her and then laughed, "You're wrong. Actually, just because of what happened between you and him, I don't hate you."

Lin Siyan was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't understand. "You must be joking. Brother Yuan divorced you because of me. Don't you hate me?"

Gu Yuru nodded. "I said, if it was just about you and him, I wouldn't hate you, because it wasn't you who made the promise to me. As long as he's not firm in his heart, even if it wasn't you, it would have been someone else."

"but……"

Gu Yuru's expression turned colder. "But you shouldn't have hurt me and the children so many times. I cannot tolerate this."

Lin Siyan stood there in a daze.

"As for what happened last night, I, Gu Yuru, am not so magnanimous as to save you after you've done so many things to harm us, especially when you're trying to shift the blame elsewhere. As for Li Yuan...it has nothing to do with me. I, Gu Yuru, will never go back to you."

Li Mumu clapped her hands happily, "Mom, the grass that has turned back is smelly and old, and it doesn't taste good."

Gu Yuru chuckled and took her daughter's hand, which she had extended to her. "Go back quickly. Mom will boil some water for you to wash your face, and then we'll have dinner."

The mother and daughter left talking and laughing, leaving Lin Siyan looking at them in confusion. Her eyes were complicated, but in the end she chose hatred.

Zhang Xiang walked past her with a satisfied look on his face and pinched her. "As expected, you're the one who made Li Yuan divorce his wife. You little bitch are really slutty. Wait for me tonight."

Lin Siyan couldn't help but shiver, and she subconsciously looked at Li Yuan.

The moment Li Yuan's gaze met hers, he quickly looked away, not knowing whether it was out of guilt or because he thought they were dirty.

Lin Siyan bit her lip; the baby in her belly was kicking her.

If she is dirty, Gu Yuru must not be clean either.

However, she had no chance to let Zhang Xiang destroy Gu Yuru as well.

In the evening, everyone arrived at the junction of Zhuzhou and Haicheng. There was a small octagonal pavilion in front of them. After walking a few miles, they could go to the town to rest tonight.

When Li Mumu saw the word "Qingfeng" on the pavilion, she subconsciously looked at Xie Xun.

Xie Xun didn't show much expression, but Li Mumu saw that his hands were on his waist, which was exactly where his soft sword was.

Zhang Xiang ordered everyone to stop and rest. He leaned against a pillar and said, "Alas! The good times on this errand are over here. It's so desolate once you get past Haicheng. Outside of Haicheng, there's not a single house to be seen for dozens of miles. The wind is strong and the sand is blowing. It's already snowing at this time of year."

Others complimented him, saying he was knowledgeable and so on.

Zhang Xiang was very impressed. "So, when we get to the town tonight, leave two people on guard while the others go out and have fun. Don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Thank you, Boss."

"Thank you, Boss!"

Zhang Xiang looked at Gu Yuru vaguely. Li Mumu remembered that he had talked with Lin Siyan during the lunch break.

It seems that he is most likely targeting my mother.

But Li Mumu was not worried at all. She looked around, and when her brothers suggested going to get some water, she not only did not follow them, but also stopped them.

Pei Taishou's men must have been lying in ambush here. If I were alone, they would easily catch me.

Except for Xie Xun, no one else knew what was going to happen next.

Li Mumu kept looking at Xie Xun, and Xie Xun sighed. He did not hear wrong and did not lie.

He held his breath, gathered his energy and concentrated his mind. Suddenly, his ears moved twice. He curled his lips, but in a flash he pulled the little girl beside him into his arms and flew a few steps away with her.

A sharp arrow hit the pillar, and the arrowhead was completely embedded in it, which shows how powerful the arrow was. If Li Mumu had not dodged the arrow, she would have been nailed to it.

"Be careful!" Gu Mingjing shouted, while protecting the women in the family and retreating.

The Li family fled in panic.

Zhang Xiang had just been drinking, and now his face flushed red from choking. "Damn it, you bold little thief, do you know who we are?"

Suddenly, twenty or thirty masked men in black jumped out, frightening Zhang Xiang so much that his legs went limp.

Li Mumu thought of the sword that was shot at her. She thought that Governor Pei thought highly of her and had gathered so many people to kill her.

But what’s the use of having more?

"Yu Ru, be careful, don't be afraid, I will protect you and the children." Li Yuan said.

Gu Yuru frowned and looked at him with disgust, so disgusted that she didn't even want to say a word.

"Hurry... hurry and release the Gu family, Mr. Gu..." Before Zhang Xiang could finish his words, a sharp arrow pierced his throat.

He glanced at everyone with an unwilling look, then rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

Of course, Prefect Pei also hated him. If he hadn't released the prisoners without permission, how could he have been bullied by those two brats?

"Ah! Murder!"

Amidst screams, a fierce battle is about to begin!
