After dinner, Xu's mother and Yu Niang rushed to clean up the dishes and deal with the mess.
The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law are both hardworking and do not like to take advantage of others. They thought that since the Gu family treated them to such a delicious meal, they should treat the Gu family to a meal as well, and it must be a good meal.
The two of them were already taking inventory of their own supplies and planning what to treat the Gu family to.
At this time, the moon was above the willow branches, and the awnings of every household had been set up. The three members of the Xu family also bid farewell to the Gu family and went home to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Xie Ling was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly awakened by the sound of footsteps.
She opened her eyes and met Xie Guwei's dark pupils.
Gu Wei stretched out his cold hand, covered her mouth, and whispered, "Don't talk yet."
Xie Ling nodded slightly.
Outside the tent, there were figures walking back and forth. All of them were tall and had terrifying long swords on their waists.
It's bandits!
"Third boss, the drugs we put in the river have taken effect. All the prisoners have fainted. Do you want to kill them?"
"There's a government road next to us. Did a dog eat your head? Take it back to the mountain first. My brother wants to build a Moon Viewing Tower for the beauty he kidnapped, so it's a good opportunity to capture these people to do the hard labor."
The voices of the two people talking gradually faded away.
Gu Wei frowned slightly. He himself was not afraid, but Pei's side...
He didn't know how many people were outside, so he couldn't act rashly. Most of his men were sent to look for his eldest brother...
Xie Ling saw Gu Wei's anxiety.
He whispered, "My mother-in-law is very smart and will definitely guess it. Since these bandits won't kill us for the time being, let's take advantage of them first and make plans after we follow them up the mountain."
Pei had been frightened awake a long time ago. She tried her best to suppress the panic in her heart and woke up everyone else in the carriage, asking them not to speak for the time being.
She listened carefully to the noise outside.
The voices and footsteps of this group of bandits were so loud, but they did not wake up the other people in the team.
Some means must have been used to knock out the others, and only they survived.
Pei took a deep breath, knowing that for now she could only fight back and not anger the bandits.
