"Wanwan, hurry up and leave! They are not to be trifled with!"
Zhang Xiaoyun saw the gangster coming back and anxiously stood in front of Jiang Wan.
Even though he was very scared, he still stood in front of her.
Jiang Wan was touched, but it was impossible for her to leave Zhang Xiaoyun here alone.
Not to mention the consequences of leaving her here alone, just the fact that Zhang Xiaoyun was so good to her, she couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
"Wang Ergou, what do you want to do?"
This Wang Ergou is a well-known gangster in the village. He just hangs around in the village all day long. I didn't expect that he is so bold now that he dares to stop people directly.
In the past, he was punished by the village chief for blocking people on the road.
"What's it to you? Mind your own business! But since you're here, don't leave!"
When Wang Ergou saw Jiang Wan rushing in front, his face looked very ugly. Then, he didn't know what he thought of, and he laughed evilly.
"It seems that you no longer take the village chief seriously."
Wang Ergou's expression changed, and then he looked at them with a smile on his face, "You don't have to scare me."
"This is at the foot of the back mountain, and the village chief isn't here. Even if he were here, it's you who seduced me, so what can he do?"
"Xiaoyun, I'll count to three and then you run to the side. Got it?"
Only Wang Ergou ran back; the gangsters who had been following him had already disappeared.
"no--"
Zhang Xiaoyun immediately grabbed Jiang Wan. What if she was left alone and something happened?
"Xiaoyun, listen to me..."
Jiang Wan whispered a few words in her ear. Zhang Xiaoyun was still a little worried, so Jiang Wan held her wrist and said, "Trust me."
"good."
"What are you whispering about?" Wang Ergou saw them lowering their heads and whispering to each other. He looked impatient and took a step forward.
Jiang Wan lowered her eyes and said, "One, two, three, run!"
"You still dare to run?"
Wang Ergou's expression became serious. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhang Xiaoyun directly.
'Bang--'
Jiang Wan seized the opportunity, took out a wooden stick from behind her, and hit him straight down.
"ah--"
Wang Ergou screamed and put his right hand on his left shoulder, but he couldn't reach his back.
"Jiang Wan, you dare to hit me?"
"Bang, bang—"
Jiang Wan hit him several times in a row. Wang Ergou covered his head to protect himself. While Jiang Wan was "protecting" himself, he threw down the stick and ran towards the village.
When Wang Ergou reacted, the two men had already run into the village. He could see the figures of the villagers, and the pace that was originally chasing the two men slowed down instantly.
Zhang Xiaoyun's body was shaking with nervousness as Jiang Wan held her hand.
"Xiaoyun, it's okay."
"But--"
"From now on, whenever you go out, find a place where there are villagers. This Wang Ergou won't dare to act too presumptuously. If all else fails, we can go to the village chief's house and let him teach this scoundrel a lesson."
Her family can no longer be relied upon. As for her stepmother, it’s a good thing that she is not skinned alive. She can only rely on external forces to deal with this scoundrel.
"Also, when you go out in the future, be sure to carry some self-defense equipment with you..."
If she had the chance to do it all over again, Jiang Wan knew that protecting herself was more important than anything else.
Here, one person's words can lead a person into an irretrievable situation.
“…Okay, I, I understand.”
Zhang Xiaoyun was afraid, but seeing Jiang Wan's determined expression, he nodded subconsciously.
"By the way, Xiaoyun, why did you run to the foot of the mountain today?"
She used to work in the fields, so why did she come to such a remote place at the foot of the mountain today?
When this was mentioned, Zhang Xiaoyun's face, which had regained some of its redness, turned pale again in an instant.
"Yes...my mother said that we should go to the mountains to pick some fresh wild vegetables. We are going to sell the vegetables at home to supplement the family income..."
"Exchange of vegetables from home for money?"
Fortunately, Yang could come up with such an excuse.
"Where in town, in the market, is there a lack of vegetables? Even the small greens we grow in the countryside aren't as fresh as those sold on the streets. Even if we could sell them, how much money could we get? To supplement the family income? This is simply an excuse from your stepmother!"
The little vegetables they have at home can't even fetch ten cents if they sell them. How can they make ends meet?
Zhang Xiaoyun's face was full of bitterness. She knew very well what Yang was planning.
It was simply because she saw that she had not yet married and was eating and drinking at home, and she felt sorry for the food at home, so she wanted to send her away as soon as possible so that she could get a dowry.
Do both.
"As for the matter of Wang Ergou, I even suspect your stepmother may have done something."
Wang Ergou is a well-known bachelor and gangster in the village. Which girl in the surrounding area is willing to marry him?
Zhang Xiaoyun had never offended him before. Today, she came to the foot of the mountain and was blocked here by coincidence. How could she believe that this was a coincidence?
"No...no?"
Zhang Xiaoyun couldn't believe it. After all, even if Yang wanted to send him away, she wouldn't use this method, right?
"Whether it will or not, you have to see for yourself."
"You'll know when you go back tonight."
While the two were talking, Jiang Li ran over from behind with a backpack on his back.
"Sister, Sister Xiaoyun, are you okay?"
Jiang Wan shook her head. "It's okay. How's the thing I asked you to do going?"
"Don't worry, sister, everything is in the backpack."
"Wanwan, A-li, what are you talking about?"
Jiang Wan turned around and asked Jiang Li to take the backpack, took out two handfuls of wild vegetables from it and handed them to Zhang Xiaoyun.
