Lu Wan could see that her hands were clenched tightly, but she was still very stubborn and refused to say a word, with the corners of her mouth tightly pursed.
Lu Wan gritted his teeth and ignored them. Knowing his current predicament, he quickly asked, "What happened? Auntie, tell me, I will definitely help if I can." Lu Wan said confidently.
Originally Goudan had been looking at Lu Wan in silence and had lost hope in his heart, but he didn't expect that Lu Wan suddenly decided to help them, and he couldn't help but look at Lu Wan.
Although Goudan is already thirteen years old, he is still not as tall as Lu Wan and can only look up at him. Lu Wan happened to look at him at this moment, so he quickly turned his gaze away out of embarrassment.
Seeing that Lu Wan had already agreed to her request, Aunt Hu told her the whole story.
"Goudan and I are not native residents here. We escaped from the capital. Goudan's father's original surname is Sheng."
Goudan's mother carefully looked at Lu Wan's face. In fact, she was also testing him. She was not sure which side Lu Wan belonged to. However, she was exhausted now. Seeing that Lu Wan did not look like a bad person, she decided to entrust Goudan to him.
Looking at Lu Wan's face, he felt that he would be a man of great things in the future, so entrusting Goudan to him might be the right choice.
When Lu Wan heard the surname Sheng, his face changed. He had heard that this Mr. Sheng was originally in the Dali Temple and had always worked diligently, but later he was accidentally involved in a case of Song Ping and was pushed out as a scapegoat by Song Ping.
I didn't expect that he had such a pitiful wife and children. Lu Wan already felt very guilty about that matter, and now that he has a chance to repay, he will definitely do it without hesitation.

"Goudan's father was forced into prison because of some things, and later committed suicide in prison, but we don't believe it. To be honest with you, we came to the capital step by step from a small place. The head of the family has always been diligent and hardworking, never dared to do anything that would harm the world, and was also very honest as an official. I really can't understand why he was involved in such a case?"
The old woman cried as she spoke. Lu Wan knew all the things she said, but Lu Wan couldn't tell her everything he knew at the moment.
Fortunately, the old woman no longer cares about these things. She only hopes that Lu Wan can take Goudan away from the complicated life in the capital.
"The head of the family once told us not to let Goudan help him get revenge, so we fled here, but we didn't expect that the court would still send people to hunt us down. I just hope that you can protect Goudan, even if it's just keeping him by your side as a servant."
As the old woman spoke, her eyes became redder and she held Lu Wan's hand tighter and tighter, as if she would die in the next second.
Lu Wan didn't expect that there was such a hidden secret in this. He certainly knew that the people sent to hunt him down would definitely not be sent by the court, but perhaps by Song Ping.
Probably just to silence the witnesses, but they attacked an unarmed woman and such a weak child. It is really intolerable.
"If it weren't for those people sent by the court, Goudan and I would have lived here forever, but our village has always relied on farming for a living, and everyone is happy every day, so this kind of life is also very comfortable."
The old woman's expression at this moment seemed to be that she was enjoying this kind of life.
But the old woman seemed to be awakened suddenly, her eyes became terrified, and her tone became more and more anxious: "But I didn't expect that two years ago, a group of officials came and insisted that we were harboring serious criminals from the court, and then they looted our place. I don't know if they came to find my mother and me. We brought misfortune to this village."

The old woman's face was full of guilt, and Goudan's eyes kept changing. This is one of the reasons why Goudan can have a good relationship with Lin Hai.
At this time, the old woman pleaded with him, "The villagers were forced to do robbery, but we never killed anyone. We only robbed valuables to exchange for money. It was mainly because of my illness that I caused them trouble. Please don't blame them."
The old woman was a little overwhelmed, she closed her eyes, took a few breaths, and finally recovered.
Lu Wan held her hand and shook his head, saying, "No, don't worry, I will keep Goudan by my side and raise him well. When she grows up, she can decide where to go. We won't blame the people in the village, so don't worry."
The old woman nodded and collapsed all of a sudden. Goudan and Lu Wan quickly helped Goudan's mother lie down on the bed.
Lu Wan suddenly remembered that when Lin Hai was carried on his horse, he saw large tracts of farmland around him, so he asked in confusion: "When I came here, I saw large tracts of farmland outside your village. Why don't you farm?"
"We can only eat what we grow. Ever since those officials came, the neighboring villages no longer dare to buy our vegetables. We can't earn money. If we get sick, we have no way to make money. We can only wait to die."
