Chapter 191 Return to Beiguan Village



Xia Daohua entered the space and tied up the unconscious Jin Yong tightly, like a dumpling. Of course, she also gave him a blindfold and handcuffs as usual, without any regrets.

In addition, a black non-woven packaging bag was put over his eye mask.

In short, we can't give this kid any chance to save himself!

After taking care of Jin Yong, Xia Daohua remembered that there were several people in Xia Youcai's family.

If you don't remember it, that's fine. But now that you remember it, go take a look! When Mr. Xia and Mrs. Zhou ask about it later, I have something to say.

Xia Youcai's house must have been robbed more than once.

However, someone from the Xia family must have been there, perhaps Xia Dalang, or someone else from the old Xia family.

Otherwise, Xia Youcai's body would not have been placed so properly.

Xia Youcai's body had originally been separated from his head and body, but now they were put together, wrapped in a quilt, and rolled up with a straw mat.

Although it was very shabby, the Xia family did not have coffins on hand, so being able to arrange it like this was already pretty good.

Xia Daohua walked around the house, including the cellar, but found nothing worth taking away.

She didn't want to care about Xia Youcai's body, so she turned and left.

Just a few minutes after Xia Daohua left Xia Youcai's house, Xia Dalang came back.

He was wearing mourning clothes and holding A Liu's baby in his arms.

Xia Dalang was originally in Songxi Academy. Later, he heard that there was a war in the city and the academy was in chaos. He took advantage of the chaos to run back. He encountered several dangerous situations along the way, but fortunately he was not seriously injured in the end.

He only fell twice, bruised his elbow, and broke his knee and palm. His face was also scratched two or three times by the sand and rubble on the ground when he fell.

When he got home, he saw Xia Youcai's chopped-off head and his headless body. His wife and two sisters had disappeared somewhere unknown.

The daughter also disappeared.

For a moment, Xia Dalang almost went crazy.

Until he heard a faint cry.

He followed the sound and found A Liu in the cellar.

A Liu was wrapped in swaddling clothes very well and placed in a corner. If she didn't make any noise, no one would be able to find her.

But the child is still too young, and if I ask her, she probably won’t understand what happened.

Ah Liu cried incessantly, and Xia Dalang held her in his arms, intending to go to the neighbor's house to find a nursing woman to help feed her. However, after visiting several houses, he saw that every household was in a very miserable state.

Finally, he found a pot of rice soup at a house at the end of the alley. Although only half of it was left, he treated it as a treasure and carefully fed it to A Liu.

A Liu drank the rice soup, filled her stomach, and smiled sweetly at him.

Looking at A Liu's smile, Xia Dalang felt so sad that he couldn't hold it back any longer and it turned into two lines of tears.

He allowed himself to be vulnerable for a moment, and then not only drank the remaining rice soup from A Liu, but also took a small bag of rice from the cabinet of that house, took it together with the pot, and returned home.

When he got home, he found that someone had been home again, but apart from a few more footprints, there was nothing extra or missing.

Xia Dalang placed A Liu on the kang, together with the iron pot and the small bag of rice he had borrowed from the neighbor's house. He found a shovel with a broken handle, squatted in the yard, and started digging a hole.

Xia Dalang rarely did physical work on weekdays, and soon blisters appeared on his palms.

But he endured the pain in his hand and didn't dare to stop.

No one knows when the next wave of rebellion will come.

I have to bury my father as soon as possible and run to the countryside to hide.

Xia Daohua felt that walking was a bit slow, so she took out her electric scooter again, put on her helmet, and drove at lightning speed all the way back to Beiguan Village in no time.

When they arrived at the entrance of Beiguan Village, Xia Daohua put away her electric scooter and helmet, walked a few steps into the village, and found that it was quiet.

Xia Daohua's heart sank.

Why is the village so quiet? Could it be that the enemy has raided it?

She ran hurriedly to the village, and after running a few steps, she felt relieved - although the village was quiet, she saw smoke rising from several houses.

She continued to walk inside. Inside the fourth room of the Xia family on the edge of South Lake, there was also silence.

She rushed in and took a look. There was no sign of rummaging in the room, but there was no one there either.

She turned back to the old house.

Everyone is in the Xia family's old house.

In addition to the eldest family, there were also Xia Yujiao and Zhou, no one was missing.

Not only were there quite a few people, but there were also several more. Xia Daohua felt that the strangers at home looked familiar, and after a closer look, she realized that they were Zhou Yunniang and Grandma Qu's family.

Xia Daohua felt much more at ease.

After asking, I found out that the news of the war had already reached us.

Everyone was ready to take refuge in the mountains at any time, so most families were quiet. They tried not to talk if possible, and if they really had to talk, they tried to keep their voices low.

Therefore, the old men and women who came to the village to enjoy the cool air naturally did not dare to gather there. This was also the reason why Xia Daohua felt that the village was particularly quiet as soon as she entered.

Xia Daohua thought about it, went back to the courtyard by the South Lake, and released Xia Yujiao and Zhou from the space.

As for the others, she still needs to think about it.

After placing Xia Yujiao and Zhou on the kang and giving them some water, they gradually regained consciousness.

"Rice Flower! Are we home yet?"

Zhou asked, "Where are the two young men who were with us?"

Xia Daohua laughed and said, "They are two young men after all. We can't put them on the same kang with you two!"

Xia Daohua took the two people's drinking bowls to the outer room, and released the two brocade-robed cloud riders and stuffed them on the kang in Xia Youtian's room.

When Xia Daohua returned to the house with a bowl of fermented rice wine and eggs, Xia Yujiao's eyes were still a little confused.

Xia Daohua handed Zhou the fermented rice wine egg and a wooden spoon, letting her drink first. She then said to Xia Yujiao, "This is our new house by the South Lake. Little aunt, you haven't been here yet, have you?"

Xia Yujiao and Zhou's expressions changed. Xia Yujiao, her face pale, nodded. Zhou couldn't help but give Xia Daohua a reproachful look: "You kid, why are you bringing up such a topic?"

Xia Daohua ignored Zhou and asked Xia Yujiao seriously:

"Aunt, if you were given a chance to kill your enemy, would you want to take revenge with your own hands?"

Xia Yujiao's eyes lit up for a moment, then dimmed again: "Mom said she had already helped me get revenge."

Xia Daohua said, "That beast wasn't completely dead at the time and was saved by a passerby. Although he was injured, he's still alive. I just happened to run into him and tied him up. If you want to take revenge yourself, I'll hand him over to you. If you don't want to do it yourself, then I'll..."
