It was probably because they were travelling so far, that Hu Xiao and the others who were just ordinary farmers felt that the food was very fragrant, and even used a few bowls of rice without knowing it.

"Is it the same in the village? I think there’s something different about your village. "

Taking advantage of the time between meals, Hu Xiao looked at the old lady strangely.

In East Court, he saw how the woman could not eat at the table, but now, he saw that not only did the farmer take good care of his wife and children, he even faintly respected his young wife, and did not scold or beat her.

It is indeed different, but you will have to choose your own life to live. Later on, I have to remind you to not go out again, in this village, there will always be some hooligans at night, especially women like you who are foreign to us.

Moreover, there were many bandits in the surrounding area. Although they normally wouldn’t come here during a martial arts competition in the village, and the woman in red seemed to be very skilled, but as the saying goes, they would rather offend a gentleman than a hooligan, especially if there were a lot of hooligans here.

"Thank you very much."

Soong Xuan did not think much of it, she knew about Hu Xiao’s martial arts, moreover, which one of Hu Xiao’s group was not extremely strong, the weakest of them was herself, although there were three people who were able to protect him the weakest, and even Zhao Qiyan was only able to fight evenly with Hu Xiao, which was how Great General Zhao acted, it could be seen how powerful Hu Xiao was!

It was better to avoid trouble, but the more they avoided provoking trouble, the more likely it would come knocking on their door.

They had been rushing along the road and did not have time to rest. Therefore, after eating dinner, Hu Xiao and the rest rested. They were still confused when they woke up in the middle of the night.

"Old granny, hand over those few little granny. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being impolite!"

The outer room was noisy, but what he said confused them.

"Pei, you scum!" "Since you’ve entered my old woman’s door, I will naturally protect the safety of the young misses. Who do you think you are to dare act so atrociously in front of me?!"

The paper curtain allowed them to look without restraint at the scene outside the door. They saw that the old woman’s family was standing at the entrance very seriously, while the people in front of them were hiding in the darkness. They could not see their faces, and only a big man close to the old woman could vaguely see their faces.

That big guy was quite strong. If he ignored the long scar on his face, he would be able to treat him as a true man!

"Old granny, are you sure you want to block us?"

The head of the bandits seemed to be extremely disdainful of this family as he threw the grass in his mouth to the side and said loudly.

"Old woman!" Get out of the way! The person our boss wants to snatch has never failed before. It’s not worth it to lose your life when the time comes! "

A wretched looking man jumped up and said. However, the old woman didn’t say anything and just looked at them silently. It was precisely because of this that they became even angrier.

He had never seen a village that was so ignorant. In the past, whenever they came, they would not stop them. Some would even help to apply medicine to cover their sweat.

After negotiating for a while, the bandit leader became a bit angry. He was not a friendly person to begin with, and now that this unremarkable woman had repeatedly refused him, he no longer cared about anything else and rushed towards the woman and her family.

This woman’s family was all practitioners, and her wife’s actions were quite clean and efficient. However, because there was no blood on her hands, there was a sliver of blood on them. However, that old woman was a bit different.

Although she was older, she didn’t affect the old woman’s movements. Her attacks were all fatal, but when she met that person, she forcibly stopped herself. The killing move from before seemed to graze past their heads.

Although the old woman felt a bit helpless, she acted the same as before.

The people on the other side weren’t stupid, especially when they realized that they had kicked the wrong person in the middle of their group. They could be considered courageous and scheming, so they immediately let them leave, but their gazes were no longer as indifferent as they were before.

When everyone had left, the old woman trembled and asked her son to help her up.

Now, instead of his high-spirited appearance from before, he looked more like an old man in his twilight years.

"Don’t worry. These people are people that the old women recognize. Although we have hit a few people earlier, we did not kill them. Don’t worry, they will not come again."

Hu Xiao was startled, this bandit was actually a reasonable person!

It was not only Hu Xiao, even the two children of the old lady were startled when they heard it. It was probably because their mother always spoke with a lot of weight, and since the old lady said that they would be fine, then it was a relief.

Hu Xiao turned around, with the intention to continue sleeping, but Xiao Yu couldn’t fall asleep on her own.

"Mistress, you guys go to sleep. I’ll guard it. I’ll call you guys if anything happens."

Unable to endure Xiao Yu’s insistence, she only warned him again and again not to force herself, and then turned back. freeweɓnøvel~com

Indeed, it was as the old lady had said, the group of bandits did not come back to find people, and only then, Hu Xiao was truly relieved.

"Thank you for yesterday."

Yesterday, when the old lady was about to leave, Hu Xiao saw the look in her eyes, but she was able to recover some of her energy, so she quickly found the old lady and spoke to her.

"It’s alright, it’s just within my capabilities. I naturally have to help you get rid of this calamity by restraining your money."

Indeed, Hu Xiao and the others gave them a lot of silvers yesterday, but this family did not seem to be interested in money either.

"No matter what, thank you very much. Today, we will leave. I wonder if you all have any spare coarse clothes?"

Their current attire was indeed quite eye-catching. The young lady did not have a single servant by her side, so it was indeed easy for people to think of them when they went out like this. It was better to disguise themselves.

The old lady seemed to have other opinions towards Hu Xiao. After hearing Hu Xiao’s words, she turned around and left with a smile on her face, and a moment later, she brought some clothes along with her.

"There is only this much left in the old woman’s house. Fortunately, no one else has passed through."

It was a rare harvest, Hu Xiao accepted it and smiled, it was as though she had prepared for them, but it was their first time here, she did not even know if they would be able to stay the night again, upon thinking about it, Hu Xiao shook his head, wanting to throw out the thoughts that had rushed into his head one by one.
