Several dark and strong figures rushed in.
But what they saw was that Shen Mingzhu was hiding behind Wen Shuangnian, and Ji Ci raised his hand as if he was going to do something.
This scared them so much that some of them were quick enough to push Ji Ci out the door.
"Wait!" Wen Shuangnian immediately spoke up to stop them.
She knew the temperaments of the uncles and aunts in the family very well. When she saw Ji Ci "bullying" them, she probably found it difficult to resist taking action.
Ji Ci was also confused, and before he could react, a fist was only a few centimeters away from his face.
"Uncle village chief, don't hit him, he is not a bad person."
Hearing Wen Shuangnian's voice, the fists that were about to fall were silently retracted.
Wen Shuangnian and Shen Mingzhu walked to an open space outside surrounded by a group of people.
Then several strong ladies immediately pulled Shen Mingzhu and Wen Shuangnian around and looked them over for several times, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the two were not injured.
"Oh, Shuangnian, I'm sorry for making you suffer so much!"
A woman with dark complexion but a concerned look on her face hugged Wen Shuangnian tightly.
Wen Shuangnian smiled slightly, "I'm fine, really. With Mingzhu and President Ji here, I haven't been wronged."
Shen Mingzhu was no exception and was embraced by a strong embrace, but she seemed not to be used to such a tight embrace and could only ask Wen Shuangnian for help.
Wen Shuangnian couldn't help laughing, "Auntie is fine, Mingzhu is fine too, there's no need to use so much force."
The lady holding Shen Mingzhu loosened her arms and found that Shen Mingzhu seemed to be uncomfortable. She smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, little girl. I forgot that your city kids are more delicate."
However, Shen Mingzhu didn't care about these. She just held the old lady's arms with bright eyes.
"Wow, the lady is so strong and her hands are so firm!"
"If I had your strength, who would dare to bully me? I can beat them all with one punch!"
The old lady was a little embarrassed by Shen Mingzhu's praise, "It's not that great, I just carry more than 100 kilograms of things every day."
Shen Mingzhu's eyes lit up even more, "How amazing!"
"Ahem." Ji Ci couldn't help but make a sound to remind the overly excited Shen Mingzhu.
She was happy, but she was being stared at by several strong working people.
Although Wen Shuangnian said that he was not a bad person, the scene of opening the door was too shocking to the protective villagers of Funing Village. If they couldn't beat him, they could still stare at him.
Shen Mingzhu had long forgotten about Ji Ci. She looked at the bent back of the old lady in front of her and her slightly strange posture even when she was standing, and sighed.
"Auntie, you still need to take care of your health. Working for a long time has a great impact on your body. Excessive spending will cause you to have more health problems as you age."
"What?" Shen Mingzhu's vocabulary made the old lady, who was not very familiar with Mandarin, a little confused.
But the one who couldn't stand being ignored even more was the elegant man with glasses.
"That's enough! You stormed into our village with such force and brought so many weapons that you broke down the door. What do you mean?"
The village chief standing next to Wen Shuangnian rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong arms.
"I haven't settled the score with you yet! How dare you bully our daughter? Do you want your village to be demolished?"
The village chief here just shouted angrily, and the villagers behind him raised their weapons at them.
The elegant man was a little overwhelmed for a moment. Compared with the Funing Village, their Funing Village only looked ferocious, but in fact, it was just a group of thin men. It was okay for them to bully a few little girls and civilized people like Ji Ci.
If they really were to fight with the people of Funing Village alone, they would have no chance of winning.
When unable to win, a gentleman can only give in.
"It's all a misunderstanding. We just saw that it was inconvenient for the two little girls to walk on the mountain road, so we wanted to send them home in person."
The head of Funing Village sneered, "Do you think we don't know what you are up to? If you really wanted to send them home, they should have been home yesterday. But now you're locking them up. Do you still expect us not to know what you are up to?"
The elegant man, the head of Funing Village, didn't buy it and had to change his words.
"Really? It's true. The old lady from our village chief's family insisted on keeping these two girls. That old lady is a lunatic. I was afraid that she would go crazy and scare them, so I let them drink tea here and wait."
Shen Mingzhu couldn't stand this blatant slander. She took a few steps forward and spat at the elegant man.
"Bullshit! It's obviously you who are filthy and want to lock us up to do some disgusting things. Now that there are so many people, you are shifting the blame to others. What, there is no toilet in your village, so all the shit goes into your mouth?"
The elegant man's eyes suddenly turned fierce, "Why are you butting in on our conversation, bitch!"
Shen Mingzhu took the opportunity to hide behind the village chief of Funing Village, "Look, village chief! They all want to beat me in front of so many people. If you had come a little later, Shuangnian and I..."
Shen Mingzhu covered her face and sobbed halfway through her speech.
The lady who had just spoken to Shen Mingzhu couldn't help it anymore, so she picked up a weapon and hit the elegant man.
"You're so arrogant about bullying a woman! I don't think I'll say any more to you guys, just attack now!"
The elegant man didn't react immediately and was hit hard by the stick, even his glasses were cracked.
"You! Just wait for me!" He didn't even bother to run and his glasses fell to the ground, he just ran towards the village entrance.
The few villagers following him didn't dare to stay here any longer and followed him away in shame.
The old lady took out a handkerchief from her pocket and handed it to Shen Mingzhu, "Don't cry, we are here, no one dares to bully you."
One of the villagers raised his hand and said, "Village Chief, what should we do with this guy?"
Everyone looked over and saw Ji Ci covering his face with his hands, looking embarrassed.
It was really because the gazes of the villagers next to him were too "enthusiastic" and Ji Ci was a little overwhelmed.
Shen Mingzhu couldn't help laughing when she saw Ji Ci's embarrassed look.
“Hahahahahahahahaha, Ji Ci, you finally got what you deserved. I let you threaten me! Now everyone thinks you’re a bad guy!”
The head of Funing Village coughed lightly and said, "Don't worry about him. Let's go back."
After the village chief said this, everyone's eyes turned away from Ji Ci and walked back, talking and laughing.
When the crowd left, Ji Ci sighed. What was going on? He wanted to be quiet.
But before he could think for long, he was interrupted by a loud shout.
"Ji Ci!!! Come quickly!"
It was Shen Mingzhu who was calling him, and she looked very anxious.
Forget it, let’s go over and see what she is up to.
Ji Ci took long steps and quickly saw the crowd, but this time, the villagers automatically made way for them.
Shen Mingzhu quickly rushed from the crowd to Ji Ci, "Hey, why are you so slow? Hurry up, or we'll start a fight!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Just follow me!" Shen Mingzhu grabbed Ji Ci's wrist and started running wildly. The villagers on both sides stared at the two of them passing by with wide eyes.
