Chapter 118 This is true
After another bowl of wine, the second in command spoke with a smile.
"Come on, come on, eat some vegetables, sister, you eat too." As he said that, he tore off a chicken leg and put it in Xia Xing'er's bowl.
Seeing this, Xia Qingyu tore off a chicken wing and put it in Xia Xinger's bowl, while he put the chicken leg in his own bowl.
"Second brother, you don't know, my sister is very delicate and picky about food. She only eats the wings of the whole chicken, so the drumsticks have to be given to me."
Xia Xing'er smiled and nodded, then picked up the chicken wings and ate them slowly.
The three men had been drinking.
Xia Qingyu asked, whether intentionally or unintentionally, "Big Brother and Second Brother, do you know where the officers who escorted us have gone?"
Upon hearing this, Bu Qingfeng put down the wine in the bowl and glanced at him.
"Of course the police will take him to a better place. Why are you asking this?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Qingyu picked up the wine in the bowl and clinked glasses with Bu Qingfeng.
"As long as we're locked up, it's fine. You don't know, these officials don't treat us exiles as human beings at all. They whip us whenever they're not happy. To be honest, we're covered with new whip wounds on top of old ones. Maybe I did too many good things in my past life, so I met my elder and second brothers in this life and they gave me a different life."
Bu Qingfeng laughed heartily upon hearing this: "Don't worry, brother. As long as you follow me well in the future, I promise that you and your family will have good things to eat and drink, and no one will bully you anymore."
Xia Xing'er started to cry while eating.
Xia Qingyu asked anxiously: "Little sister, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Bu Qingfeng and the second in command, who were originally drinking happily, also looked over when they heard this.
The second in command asked gently, "What's wrong, sister? Is the food not to your liking?"
Xia Xing'er's tears were like beads that had broken off the string, and she couldn't stop crying.
She choked up and said, "I'm fine, I'm really fine. I just... I just thought of my parents. I can eat delicious roast chicken, but they are still... still in the cell. I don't know... I don't know if they can eat... That's why... I can't help it... Woo..."
Bu Qingfeng, who was originally holding the wine bowl, suddenly looked gloomy and said sternly, "Xia Qingyu, what's wrong with your sister?"
While Xia Qingyu was busy comforting Xia Xing'er, she said to Bu Qingfeng: "Brother, please don't misunderstand me. My little sister has been spoiled by my family since she was a child. She has never seen the world, and my parents love her like the apple of their eye.
Since the exile began, her parents have saved their food for her. Now that she's eating her favorite meat, she feels a little sad. "Brother, I'd like to ask, can my family in prison have food to eat?"
The second in command said, "Brother, this matter is my fault for not being considerate enough. I will have some food sent to the prison so that they can have something delicious to eat."
Xia Xing'er looked pitiful and softly said, "Thank you very much, second brother!"
She took out two jade pendants from the space and secretly handed them to Xia Qingyu from under the table.
Due to the tacit understanding between the brother and sister, Xia Qingyu quickly understood what it meant.
Xia Qingyu took out the jade pendant and handed it to Scarface and the second in command.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, these two jade pendants are the only valuable things we have. They were carved for us by our elders back in the capital. Today is my first time joining the village, and I'm giving them to you two as a greeting gift. I hope you don't mind."
The second in command took the jade pendant. He had been robbing caravans for many years, so he had naturally seen a lot of good things. These two jade pendants were obviously good things and worth a lot of money. Moreover, the people had already joined the village, so he would take better care of them in the future.
After they had almost finished drinking, the boss asked someone to take them downstairs to rest.
The second in command smiled and said, "Brother Xia, you will stay in the west wing of my courtyard tonight. After three days, when I have accomplished that task, I will become the third in command of our stronghold. Then I will definitely build another courtyard for you and bring your family out to live with you."
Xia Qingyu heard this and said happily: "Second brother, are you serious? I will help you finish that matter in three days. Do you really want me to be the third in command?"
Bu Qingfeng looked at Xia Qingyu's happy face. He was indeed a young boy. He was so happy with just a little bit of sweetness.
Patting him on the shoulder, he smiled and said, "Of course what your second brother said is true. In our village, brothers are as close as family. As long as you have the ability, you will definitely be able to lead your family to a good life."
Wan Ajiu said from the side: "Okay, it's getting late, Brother Xia and sister should go to bed early. Regain your energy in the next two days. We will be waiting to see you show your skills in two days."
Xia Qingyu quickly bowed and thanked him: "Then I would like to thank you, big brother and second brother!"
The second in command followed Bu Qingfeng to his residence, and Bu Qingfeng had a gloomy face.
"Second brother, do you believe them? Do you think they will run away?"
The second in command calmly drank the tea in his hand.
"Brother, no, they are now exiles. If they really run away, they will have to live in hiding, which is not as comfortable as our life in the village.
Besides, their families are still in prison. They are good at martial arts, but there are so many of us in the village, so why should we be afraid of them? "
Bu Qingfeng heard this and said coldly: "Wan Ajiu, don't be too confident!"
The second in command continued to drink his tea and didn't take his words to heart.
"Don't worry, big brother. As long as we keep their families firmly in our hands, we don't have to worry about them causing trouble."
Bu Qingfeng also felt that what he said made sense.
"Second brother, although you don't know martial arts, your brain is more flexible than mine, and you also know some pharmacology. That's why I have always treated you as my own brother over the years."
"I hope your plan won't harm us this time. After all, this exile group has so many people, almost half of the village's population. If they unite, the consequences will be unimaginable..."
Wan Ajiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, big brother. Most of them are women, children and have no fighting ability. Even the young and middle-aged men have been in exile for such a long time, and their bodies have long been broken.
Our brothers, who have enough to eat and drink every day and are all strong, are afraid of them.
Three days later, we will ask the men among them to go with us to rob the government silver, and let them all rush to the front. After they are all dead, our brothers can take in their wives and daughters and carry on the family line. Isn't it wonderful!
When you brothers have women and children, they will have to work very hard for us for the sake of their descendants. It's a great way to kill two birds with one stone!"
Bu Qingfeng is now truly full of admiration for his second brother. This scholar has a sharp mind and a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
"Second brother, I am really impressed by you."
Wan Ajiu smiled and said, "Brother, just know that I treat you as my own brother and will definitely not harm you."
