Chapter 135 Retaliation
Bai Qiu nodded in agreement: "Alright, let's send it to the village chief to handle. The village chief is a man of integrity and will definitely not be biased."
"I'll take them there myself." He Tingjun glanced at the pale Yun Qiao and the weeping Yuan Qing, and said, "Sister Bai Qiu, please take Yun Qiao and Yuan Qing home first. Yuan Qing must be frightened, so please comfort him."
Yun Qiao looked uneasy: "Brother He, can you go to the village chief's house by yourself?"
He Tingjun smiled at her soothingly: "Don't worry, I can do it alone. Just follow your aunt home with peace of mind."
Yun Qiao had no choice but to nod and agree: "Okay, I will go home with my aunt."
"Go back. I'll be back soon." After saying that, He Tingjun grabbed Hu Lei's arm and dragged the drunk man away.
Yun Qiao stared at the two people's backs as they left in shock, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
Bai Qiu immediately grabbed her hand and said, "Yun Qiao, what are you thinking about? Why are you so distracted?"
Yun Qiao finally came to his senses, shook his head, and lied to Bai Qiu for the first time: "No, I didn't think anything."
"Then let's go home." After saying this, Bai Qiu walked back while coaxing Yuan Qing softly.
Yun Qiao stood up and followed, but after a few steps he couldn't help but look back.
At this time, He Tingjun had already dragged Hu Lei to the end of the alley. After turning a corner, he disappeared from Yun Qiao's sight.
Yun Qiao bit her lips subconsciously, biting them so hard that they almost lost their color.
She thought uncertainly: Could Hu Lei be the bad guy who hurt my uncle's family in the previous life?

As he was about to reach the door of his house, Yun Qiao picked up the drain basket and the river shrimps scattered on the ground bit by bit.
The river shrimps were covered in mud. Some were still alive and kicking, while others had died without a sound. However, the freshly dead river shrimps were still fresh and could be eaten.
Back in the yard, Ye Yuanzhang had almost finished fishing, with only a few fish that had slipped through the net needing to be checked and filled.
Seeing Bai Qiu carrying Yuan Qing back, followed by Yun Qiao, who looked dejected and obviously depressed, he was a little surprised: "What happened to you?"
"Something happened."
When Bai Qiu carried Yuanqing in his arms and walked in front of Ye Yuanzhang, he saw that Yuanqing's eyes were red and there were traces of tears on his fair and tender face.
Ye Yuanzhang finally reacted: "Was it Yuanqing who was crying just now?"
Across the yard and the alley, Ye Yuanzhang was specifically peeling the chicken, thinking that it was just someone else's child crying after a fight, and didn't think it was his own child at all.
"Yeah." Bai Qiu told him what had just happened.
Ye Yuanzhang was furious when he heard this: "Hu Lei! He's acting like a fool just because he drank some cat urine! The kid ran over and ran into him. It was the kid's fault. He should just say sorry. Is it necessary to call for killing for such a small matter? No, I have to find the village chief!"
After saying that, he put the chicken into the basin, stood up and was about to leave.
"Stop!" Bai Qiu called him, "Come back."
Ye Yuanzhang frowned: "Why did you call me back? Don't you want me to stay?"
"Yes, I don't want you to die! Tingjun is already dead, why are you still dying?" Bai Qiu said rationally, "How can you, a gangster, be more prestigious than Tingjun, an officer? Don't make things worse."
"I'm asking for money for my son, how can it be considered as causing more trouble?" Ye Yuanzhang was so angry that he lost all his rationality, and only anger was left in his mind.
"What's the point of asking for a favor? You won't get one," Bai Qiu said expressionlessly. "You're a traitor, a class enemy of the people. Everything you do is wrong, even if it's right. Supporting you is opposing the people. Tell me yourself, who in the village would dare to give you this favor?"
Ye Yuanzhang was speechless: "I..."
"You might as well not eat. Why don't you sit down and choose your chicken carefully."
Seeing Ye Yuanzhang's face filled with indignation, Bai Qiu softened his voice and said softly, "Don't worry, Tingjun is capable, he will resolve the matter."
Seeing Ye Yuanzhang still standing there, Baiqiu reached out and tugged at his hand: "Alright, stop standing there like an idiot. Go do your job properly."
Ye Yuanzhang had no choice but to sit down again and pick out the remaining chicken meat from the chicken skin bit by bit.
Yun Qiao did not join in the couple's argument. He scooped a bucket of water and cleaned the muddy river shrimp.
After washing the river shrimp, Ye Yuanzhang also picked out the remaining chicken meat from the chicken wings.
Bai Qiu asked Ye Yuanzhang to wash his hands, handed Yuanqing to him and asked him to hold him: "Come and see Yuanqing, I'll stew the chicken."
Ye Yuanzhang agreed.
Bai Qiu carried the chicken into the kitchen and called out to Yun Qiao, "Yun Qiao, can you help me pick a few green onions from the vegetable patch in the southeast corner of the yard?"
"Okay, how many do you want?"
Bai Qiu: "Four or five will be enough."
