Zhang Dahu said with a touched look on his face, "Xiao Meng, I know you mean well, but we don't want you to be dragged down. You'd better ignore this matter!"
Xiaobao's mother opened her mouth, and suddenly her eyes flashed with despair, "Yes, Xiaomeng, Xiaobao's father and I know your good intentions, but you'd better not interfere, lest you get into trouble."
When leaving, Zhang Meng left a pill for Xiao Bao's mother and repeatedly reminded Zhang Dahu to make sure Xiao Bao's mother took the pill. Only then did the couple leave Zhang Dahu's house.
On the way back, Zhang Meng looked at the man next to her, "Gu Mingtai!"
As soon as she called out the name, Gu Mingtai seemed to have guessed what she was going to say and immediately continued, "I know. Don't worry, I will have someone find out the origins of this family!"
Zhang Meng nodded, and the couple then walked slowly towards the Zhang family's old house. Occasionally, when they met villagers, they would greet them with a smile.
The days at home always pass by extremely quickly. Before the blink of an eye, it was already the second day since the couple returned.
That day, after the couple had breakfast, Gu Mingtai drove a military vehicle to the next county.
As soon as he arrived in the county town, Gu Mingtai drove directly to the Hu family who were holding Xiaobao captive.
Looking at the landlord-like house, Zhang Meng immediately looked at the man beside her, "What on earth is this Hu family doing? How can they still afford such a nice house at this time!"
Looking at the large house, Gu Mingtai sneered and said, "They're just three generations of poor peasants, but the old man of the Hu family got lucky and actually saved a high-ranking official while fighting the Japanese. Now that high-ranking official is a powerful figure in the capital, the Hu family has naturally risen in power. They use the high-ranking official's influence to bully others in this area. From what I know, almost everyone in this area gives face to this Hu family."
After hearing this, Zhang Meng sneered and stared at the Hu family with an icy gaze, sneering, "So they're a family that's just bullying others. I really thought they had some powerful backers."
Soon, the young couple got out of the car and went directly to the gate of the Hu family.
Gu Mingtai knocked on the door. After a while, a rather unreasonable voice came from inside. "Who is it? Why are you knocking at my door so early in the morning? You've ruined all my good luck for the day!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door suddenly opened and a woman who was dressed fairly well but had a sarcastic look on her face stood at the door.
A pair of colored eyes looked at Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai.
"Who are you?" After a while, the woman asked with a faint expression.
Zhang Meng took one look at the woman's face and knew she was a stingy and mean person.
Zhang Meng said coldly, "We're here to look for Xiaobao. Please release him."
When the woman heard this, the little bit of politeness on her face immediately disappeared. "So it's because of that little immortal. What happened? What I said last time hasn't made you give up yet? Let me tell you, we spent real money to buy this little immortal. You want to take it back? It's impossible. Get out."
After cursing, the woman stretched out her hand and tried to push Zhang Meng.
Gu Mingtai quickly grabbed her hand and threw it aside with force. "Please show some respect to your hand. If you dare to hurt my wife, I will not let your whole family go."
The woman was caught off guard and was thrown back two steps by Gu Mingtai.
After the woman steadied her steps, she looked at Gu Mingtai with a look of shock, and only then did she realize that the clothes he was wearing were actually a military uniform.
Suddenly, I felt a little scared and asked carefully, "What do you want to do? I tell you, if you dare to do anything, I will call the police immediately."
Zhang Meng immediately smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead and report it. I want the police to take a look. You bought a child here to be buried with your own child. Should this feudal superstition be severely punished?"
The woman laughed fearlessly. "Do you think the police will listen to you? I'm telling you, our Hu family is not someone you can mess with lightly. I'm kindly reminding you to leave here quickly, otherwise, you two will be the ones who suffer in the end. Even if this comrade is a soldier, don't let your military achievements be ruined! That would be a shame!"
