Xia Chunmei disguised herself, even drawing her face with charcoal to make sure no one could recognize her. Then, led by Xia Ping'an, she arrived at Zhao Jiatiao.
“The person is locked in that big house, girl. Don’t be foolish. There are many of them. The message has already been sent. Wealthy families have fast horses. They can come here quickly on horseback.” Xia Ping’an advised earnestly, afraid that Xia Chunmei would impulsively go to danger alone.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Go check if they're all asleep."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Ping'an floated over.
"Please let me go, waaaah, my dad will give you lots of money." Xu Jiamin cried, tears streaming down her face.
"Trying to leave? Don't even dream about it," Luo said viciously. "Do you think we're stupid? You saw our faces, and we let you go, only to have you bring your men to arrest us?"
"I promise I won't, I swear!"
"Why waste words with her? Take this kid away first. They said they'd give him five taels of silver. The price isn't high, but at least it's a remote mountain village, and he's young. If we blindfold him, he'll never find his way home."
Because he was young, he couldn't remember or explain many things, so the group decided to spare his life.
"Then this little wench... hahaha..." The others chuckled lewdly, and Xu Jiamin cried even louder when she heard this.
"I'm telling you, none of you are allowed to make a move beforehand. Same rules as always, we'll play together when I get back."
It was obvious what they were up to. Xu Jiamin kept crying, regretting revealing that she was Xu Qingfeng's daughter. These people wouldn't normally play with honest goods unless the "goods" were disobedient or they didn't want to spare her life.
Xia Pingan floated back to Xia Chunmei's side and told her what he had heard.
"Oh, right, they were there on Tuesday too."
"Also on Tuesday"
Xia Chunmei was stunned!
The original story doesn't say he was a human trafficker; it only mentions that he spent money to buy women, who were ostensibly his wives, but in reality, he coerced them into prostitution for money.
Forcing one's own woman to sell herself for money—only a beast would do such a thing.
Xia Chunmei was originally thinking about how to trick him into coming here so that the Jin family would treat him as a human trafficker and deal with him. But now that he's here, it saves her a lot of trouble.
"Then let's follow the carriage first, and I'll make my move once we've left Zhao Jiatiao."
Upon hearing that Xia Chunmei was about to take action, Xia Ping'an trembled with fear: "There are two of them, and the man has a knife in his hand. Don't be foolish!"
"Don't worry, I have the skills."
Because it was night, the carriage wasn't moving very fast, and Xia Chunmei was still able to keep up.
After leaving Zhao Jia Tiao, Xia Chunmei waved from behind: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, the carriage in front."
"Old Mu, there's someone behind us." Luo lifted the curtain and glanced back. It was too dark for her to see that the person who called for the car was Xia Chunmei.
"Someone is calling for a car in the middle of the night," Old Mu thought, finding it rather strange.
Luo laughed and said, "What, you old Mu, are you ever afraid?"
"Tch, you underestimate me. She's just a little girl. What's there to be afraid of? She's come to me of her own accord. Why not make money off her?"
"Ouch!" Xia Chunmei stumbled and fell to the ground.
Old Mu grew anxious when he saw that Xia Chunmei hadn't gotten up for a while: "Hey, little girl, what's wrong?"
"I sprained my ankle, waaaaah, uncle, my parents are gone, and my uncle is going to sell me to a brothel. Please save me, I don't want to be taken back by them, waaaaah..."
Xia Chunmei cried her heart out.
In these days, it's not uncommon for orphans to be bullied by their uncles, aunts, and other relatives. If it were Old Mu, he would have done the same. Why would he raise them himself if he didn't sell them?
So Lao Mu didn't think much of it at all, he just felt incredibly lucky that goods were being delivered to his door late at night.
"Child, don't be afraid, Uncle will save you from this hell." Old Mu jumped off the carriage and came forward to help Xia Chunmei.
"Thank you so much, Uncle. May you have a peaceful and happy life." What a sweet voice...
Old Mu figured that with such a sweet voice, Xia Chunmei must be beautiful too. He thought he'd struck gold this time, hehe...
But his joy lasted only a couple of seconds before Xia Chunmei swiftly struck, stabbing him in the thigh with scissors, followed by a sweeping leg kick that sent Old Mu sprawling to the ground.
"Ah..." Old Mu let out a scream.
Xia Chunmei didn't give Lao Mu a chance to fight back at all. She grabbed Lao Mu's neck and stabbed him hard in his other thigh with the scissors!
Old Mu was immediately rendered incapable of fighting or moving!
"What happened?" Luo was so frightened that she immediately jumped off the carriage. When she saw Old Mu being pressed to the ground, she was stunned.
"You brat, you're asking for it!" After saying that, Madam Luo drew a knife from the carriage and rushed over.
Seeing Luo Shi brandish her long knife, Xia Ping'an was extremely anxious: "Be careful, she has a knife."
Xia Chunmei and Xia Ping'an had always thought these men might be martial arts practitioners, but they never expected that Luo Shi was the one with real skills!
Xia Chunmei, a modern person, is not good at cold weapons such as swords and spears, but she is good at nunchucks!
Luo thought Xia Chunmei only had scissors in her hand. Just as she rushed over, Xia Chunmei suddenly appeared with nunchucks, catching her off guard.
"Who exactly are you?" Luo asked sharply.
"I am your ancestor, and I specialize in beating unworthy descendants like you!"
Xia Chunmei's nunchaku skills were truly impressive; Xia Ping'an was completely mesmerized.
Soon, the Luo family was left with no choice but to be beaten.
"No, no, no, girl, grandma, ancestor, please stop hitting me, please stop hitting me."
"Lie down if you don't want to die!"
Luo Shi knelt down strangely: "Ancestor, I have all the money in my carriage for you. If it's not enough, I'll go home and get you more. Just ignore us like we're nothing."
Xia Chunmei didn't say anything, but took off Luo's belt and tied her up, then took off her smelly socks and stuffed them into her mouth.
Suddenly Xia Pingan shouted, "He's trying to escape!"
When Old Mu saw that even the tigress Luo Shi couldn't beat the little darling in front of him, he quickly made his escape.
But both of his legs were injured and he was in excruciating pain, so he couldn't run far at all.
Xia Chunmei chased after him and punched and kicked him again.
Then they took off his belt and tied him up too, and gagged him.
It was only then that Xia Chunmei went to see Jin Wenyuan.
Before anyone knew it, little Jin Wenyuan had rolled out of the carriage, and his eyes were now sparkling as he looked at Xia Chunmei.
Xia Chunmei untied the ropes for him, removed the cloth from his mouth, and comforted him, saying, "Don't be afraid, little friend. The bad guy has been caught by your sister. You're safe now."
Little Jin Wenyuan still held Xia Chunmei tightly.
Xia Chunmei gently patted his back and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, you're safe now. Your family will be here soon. Now, can you help your sister put the bad guy on the carriage?"
Jin Wenyuan nodded.
Xia Chunmei put him down, and then put Luo Shi and Lao Mu into the carriage.
The two kept making "uh-huh" sounds, probably begging Xia Chunmei to let them go.
These two have committed numerous evil deeds, and moreover, they initially had designs on her. How could Xia Chunmei possibly let them go?
Human traffickers deserve to die!
Xia Chunmei remembered that Luo had said there was money in the carriage. After putting the person on it, she searched the carriage and, holy crap, there were thirteen taels of silver! A huge sum of money! Now she had the money to build her house.
Well, it's not that I'm greedy, it's just that I've been worried and busy all night, I can't let all my hard work go to waste.
Just then, Xia Chunmei heard the sound of horses' hooves. Jin Wenyuan excitedly ran over. Judging from Jin Wenyuan's reaction, the person coming must be someone he knew.
Xia Chunmei then quietly left.
"You scared me to death." Jin Yuntian jumped off the horse, hugged the unharmed Jin Wenyuan, and only then did he feel relieved.
Jin Wenyuan pointed at the carriage: "Sister, sister..."
"Young Master has spoken!" Wu Han was extremely excited.
Jin Wenyuan was also very excited, but he was a little annoyed because the first word his son uttered was not "Dad"!
Jin Wenyuan pulled Jin Wenyuan toward the carriage, but Xia Chunmei was nowhere to be seen. Only Luo Shi and Old Mu were in the carriage.
"Sister, sister, sister..." Jin Wenyuan kept calling out to his sister.
Go find it immediately without regret.
But they gained nothing.
Jin Yuntian sighed: "Since they don't want to show themselves, let's just leave it at that."
"Take all of these people away!" Jin Yuntian's face turned cold. Daring to arrest members of his Jin family, they were courting death!
Xia Chunmei didn't go back at all; she wouldn't feel at ease until she saw him arrested on Tuesday.
It turns out that Xia Chunmei was still thinking of ways to trick Zhou Er into coming here, so that the Jin family would believe that he was also part of this gang.
Unexpectedly, this guy is courting death by showing up here today. Even if he didn't kidnap anyone from the Jin family, they won't believe him and won't let him go.
She only left after seeing that the Jin family had arrested all the people and rescued all the innocent children and girls.
...
The Jin family.
Jin Yuntian interrogated the human traffickers, especially Old Mu of the Luo family.
However, none of them knew who had attacked them. They only knew that the attacker was young but extremely skilled in martial arts, particularly with nunchucks. His attacks were steady and accurate, but not ruthless enough.
If you're ruthless enough, you should go straight for the vital points!
Her face was covered in makeup, making it impossible to recognize her, including her accent. At first, she had a local accent, but later she didn't.
“This girl must be a local, otherwise she wouldn’t have deliberately changed her appearance,” Wu Han said.
"Since she doesn't want anyone to know who she is, then so be it. Hand them all over to the authorities and tell He Bo that there's no need to waste food on people like her in the county jail."
A single, casual remark sealed their fate.
