Chapter 71 Being Stopped
The matter was resolved and everyone left.
It’s just that the village chief glanced at Shen Jinan before leaving, with a meaningful look.
After the natives left, Li Chunhua and the others immediately surrounded them, their faces full of worry.
"Such a big thing has happened to us. Will the village chief vent his anger on us?"
They didn't dare to step forward just now because they were worried about this problem, but now they all regard Shen Jinan as the backbone.
"No." Shen Jinan patted them and signaled them to relax.
From her observation, although the village chief was a bit stubborn, he would not implicate innocent people in such matters.
"That's good. They are so cruel that they would even take revenge on the child for such a trivial matter."
Speaking of this, Li Chunhua felt a chill down her spine.
Who doesn’t have children? If there is any friction, they will vent it on their children. Who would dare to deal with them!
Shen Jin listened quietly, without interrupting or explaining anything.
After complaining for a while, they dispersed and started their busy day.
Thinking of the look in the village chief's eyes, Shen Jinan always felt that he had missed something.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw Hongniang walking in the yard.
Shen Jinan didn't want to talk to her and went to the room to look for Sui Sui Huanhuan.
"Mom, you're back!" Huanhuan ran towards her as soon as she saw her.
Frightened, Shen Jinan quickly squatted down and opened his arms to catch her.
"Have you found the person who hurt Brother Hu Zi?" Her confused eyes were full of questions.
Picking him up slowly, Shen Jinan's eyes were still filled with worry: "I found it, Huanhuan must stay away from Shen Xitang's family when he goes out to play with his brother in the future."
Her gaze shifted to Sui Sui, and she didn't stop until she saw him nod.
Even now she is still a little scared. If Huanhuan had not been able to escape, she would probably be the one dying now.
"Is it my aunt's family?" Huanhuan hugged her neck and said with a smile.
She doesn't like that aunt at all. Now her mother wants her to stay away from her aunt, and she is more than happy to do so!
"Yes, Huanhuan, remember to share your food with brother Huzi in the future." She rubbed the little kid's head and felt that the two children could get closer.
Huanhuan nodded. Brother Huzi knew a lot and Huanhuan also liked playing with him.
"Then Huanhuan and brother will go to see Brother Huzi first!"
The two of them went to Hu Zi's house yesterday and happened to go to visit him today.
Shen Xitang and her daughter have been locked up, and there will be no danger, so Shen Jinan naturally has no objection.
It was rare for the two children to have playmates, and Shen Jinan didn't want to restrict them.
"Why are you suddenly talking about this?" Gu Yanqing raised his eyebrows.
He heard everything that was said just now, but he was a little confused. Shen Jinan was not the kind of person who would alienate a child from someone for no reason.
Seeing him come in, Shen Jinan's tense nerves relaxed at once, and a feeling of exhaustion overwhelmed him: "I'm so tired."
She seemed to be acting like a spoiled child towards Gu Yanqing. Today's incident almost scared her to death.
Leaning in Gu Yanqing's arms, she recounted everything that happened today from beginning to end, without him saying a word.
Shen Jinan looked subconsciously, and saw the man pursed his lips, anger swirling in his eyes.
"They have hurt children time and time again, and this time they have such vicious intentions. We must not tolerate this!"
Gu Yanqing knew very well that keeping them would be a nuisance sooner or later. A cold look flashed across his eyes, and he actually wanted to eliminate the trouble once and for all.
This was bad, so she quickly tried to appease them: "Now that they're locked up, I'm going to give them some little treats so they can enjoy themselves."
She would go to the village chief's house later to find out where Shen Xitang and the others were being held. She absolutely could not let Gu Yanqing act impulsively.
"It's really a bargain for them to be locked up for only a few days."
“But there is no evidence.” Shen Jinan shook his head, a little regretful, “It’s a pity for Hu Zi, he is still recovering from illness.”
She felt a little distressed when she heard Li Ruqian say that she did have a fever last night, but fortunately she was well prepared and the fever went away quickly.
After all, it's a trip to the gates of hell, and the child is so young, how can it be so easy?
"If you're really worried, go and have a look."
After knowing the truth of the matter, I always feel a little guilty.
Shen Jinan still felt that he should go there, so he searched through the space and found the medicine suitable for Hu Zi's current use, then he went out with it.
Chen Ming and the village chief are relatives, and their families live not far away.
When Huanhuan and Suisui arrived, there were more than ten children of all ages surrounding the room, and their chattering was so noisy that it made people's scalps numb.
Hu Zi was lying weakly on the bed, his face pale. When he saw Huan Huan, his eyes lit up and he waved at her.
"Brother Huzi, are you feeling better?" Huanhuan squeezed over, lying on the edge of the bed, stretched out her arm and handed the oil-paper bag in her hand to Huzi, saying in a baby voice, "This is my treasured pastry. Brother Huzi, please get better soon!"
"I don't want it...you eat it..." Hu Zi frowned and pushed the pastry back like a little adult.
"Huanhuan, Huzi will be very happy if you come to see him. Take the cakes back."
This thing is so valuable, how could a child dare to take it? How could Li Ruqian dare to accept it casually? She is not such a tactless person.
"This is for Brother Huzi."
Huanhuan's eyes instantly showed tears. She pushed the pastry forward stubbornly, turned around and ran out, with Suisui following closely behind.
But he didn't run far before he was covered by a shadow and the way ahead was blocked.
When they looked up, they saw a child about seven or eight years old standing in front of them.
Shitou is a big and strong man. He is a few years older than the two little kids. When he stands there, he looks like a small mountain.
His eyes were round, but full of vigilance.
"Big brother, are you here to play with us?" Huanhuan's eyes were bright and full of innocence.
Suisui was not as naive as Huanhuan. Looking at the aggressive man, he calmly pulled Huanhuan behind him.
"Hmph!" Stone Nose looked at them with disgust, "Don't dream! People from Chenjia Village don't play with the children of corrupt officials!"
It’s because of those corrupt officials that his father can’t come back. What he hates most are corrupt officials.
Huanhuan hates it most when people talk about Daddy like this, Daddy is obviously a great hero!
"My father is not a corrupt official! He is a hero!" Huanhuan's eyes were red and she was about to cry out of anxiety.
"Don't bully my sister!"
Sui Sui pursed her lips, her little face flushed red with anger, and her eyes stared at the stone without blinking.
"Everyone already knows that you are the children of corrupt officials and will definitely be corrupt officials in the future. You are all bad guys!"
He waved his clenched fist in front of the two little kids as if threatening them.
"Only bad guys bully others!"
"Humph! You're the children of corrupt officials, so you're not bullying me. I'm... I'm..." Shitou's eyes rolled around, and he felt a bit embarrassed. After a while, he finally came up with a word, "Being chivalrous and righteous!"
"You are the bad guy!"
Tears started to flow down her cheeks and Huanhuan turned and ran away.
After glaring at Shitou, Suisui turned around and chased Huanhuan.
Behind him, Shitou yelled at the top of his lungs, "Get out of Chenjia Village as soon as possible! No one in Chenjia Village will play with you!"
