Chapter 20 Two Points to Remember
The two boys squatted listlessly beside the cart. Even though Shen Zhixia tried to stop them, they still jumped up and down for a long time. Now that they saw Shen Chunxing coming back, they stood up and ran towards her.
Wait till you get there.
Shen Mingqiu paused, looked doubtfully at Wu Min who was supported by Shen Chunxing, then shifted his gaze to Ah Si, and finally fixed his gaze on the boy in Yang Yi's arms, curling his lips.
I picked up three at a time...and more people are trying to snatch the eldest sister away!
Shen Zhixia, who was chasing behind, also bit her lip lightly.
The brother and sister felt a sense of urgency at the same time.
Only the fourth child, Chen Yandong, was still the heartless and silly child. He rushed towards Chen Chunxing, hugged her legs and yelled.
"run!"
“Bad boy!”
"no!"
Chen Chunxing touched the round head of the little fourth child and coaxed him casually.
"Yes, yes, I won't run away. Big sister will abandon anyone but us, Little Fourth Brother... Let me go first, and don't get your clothes dirty."
Chen Yandong held his neck stiff and refused to let go. After being slapped twice on the buttocks by Diao, he ran away happily.
He looked so happy that he seemed to have forgotten the panic he felt when he just woke up.
"It's nice to be a fool."
Shen Mingqiu's whisper of envy also earned him a slap from Diao.
Since others were beaten, it was no longer Chen Chunxing's turn. Diao's anger had almost subsided, and she looked carefully at the people who were brought back.
"I used to think you were quite capable, but I didn't expect you to be such a fool! Where can you two run to in a place like this? If anything really happens, how will your parents rest in peace?"
Diao scolded Wu Min and pulled her sleeve in disgust.
"It's important for people to know themselves and not cause trouble to those around them! Seeing you in this state, I'm upset. I want to pretend I didn't see it, but I'm afraid of being criticized. I really owe it to you, the Wu family!"
Wu Min was pulled into an empty room by Diao. Seeing her bringing hot water and putting down clean clothes, she was stunned and speechless.
As he lowered his head, two lines of tears fell.
She remembered the night her parents were called away, when her mother held her in her arms and gave her detailed instructions.
"Min'er, don't blame us for being cruel. There are many things we cannot control. If your father and I never come back from this trip, you must remember two things!"
"First, Aunt Hui has done a great favor to our family, and you must repay her for it!"
"Second, you must not trust those uncles and aunts in the village. If you really have no other choice, you can only trust the Shen family!"
"Mrs. Shen's only bad habit is her mouth. Even though no one in the village likes her, when the critical moment comes, she's the only one who can stand up and help you!"
Wu Min didn't understand what her mother said at that time. It was not until the farm was sealed off by the government and her parents' bodies were carried back to the yard that she began to understand a little in her grief.
Although I still can't understand why my mother looks at Aunt Shen differently, I feel relieved.
She scooped a bucket of water and poured it on her head, and the steaming blood flowed down her cheeks.
There was a bright red in front of his eyes, but Wu Min was no longer afraid, as if he had come back to life.
outside the house.
Old Zhang stared at Yang Yi taking the baby boy away to wash him, and touched his chin suspiciously.
"It doesn't sound right to me. Is this how your grandma treats her benefactor?"
Chen Chunxing quickly put on a fake smile and lowered his voice artificially.
"Uncle Zhang, don't you know my grandma? She's just like that, with a sharp tongue...and a sharp heart!"
Lao Zhang...the more he listened, the more something seemed wrong!
While the two were chatting, an officer counted the number of people who had returned.
"Boss Zhang, we're still short of five!"
Lao Zhang cursed immediately: "Damn it, not only did he seek death himself, but he also implicated us!"
It would be fine if those people escaped, but I'm afraid they'd be held hostage by bandits! Given Commander Wei's temperament, I'm afraid...
His expression changed and he was hesitant. Suddenly he caught sight of the carriage that had been forgotten by everyone. The scene of the man fighting with the wolf flashed before his eyes. He stamped his feet, strode over and bowed.
"May I ask if County Magistrate Xue was injured just now?"
The officers looked over subconsciously.
The surroundings fell into an eerie silence.
After a long time, a soft "hmm" was heard from the carriage.
Chen Chunxing thought of the stone that night, supported his chin and sat on the cart, interest in his eyes.
Unfortunately, Lao Zhang was not her and had not yet figured out the man's style of doing things. After waiting for a long time without hearing anything else, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and beg.
"If your injuries are not serious, could you accompany us to help Commander Wei?"
I waited for a while again.
Two very light words were heard from inside the carriage.
"serious."
Chen Chunxing chuckled softly. She suddenly felt that this young county magistrate was somewhat similar to someone, so much so that she wanted to meet him again.
Old Zhang was not in a very good mood and looked angry.
"If it weren't for Commander Wei protecting him all the way, it would have been difficult for Lord Xue to leave the capital. Now that he is in danger, Lord Xue is really going to sit back and do nothing?"
Luo Jinzhi happened to be walking nearby, and upon hearing what he said, she suddenly felt that this man was sick. How could a mere scholar like him have the ability to come to his aid?
But a plan came to his mind, and he hurriedly shouted: "Master, you must not be fooled, he wants you to be a scapegoat..."
Old Zhang's face really darkened.
But before he could refute, a voice came from inside the car - "Yes."
They were both stunned by what they heard.
I don’t know whether this “want” was directed at Lao Zhang or Luo Jinzhi.
"What do you want?" an officer nearby asked subconsciously.
The hoarse voice coming from the car seemed to be extremely patient and always calm.
"want."
The officers were completely confused.
Old Zhang felt extremely humiliated. He glared at Luo Jinzhi and said, "Whatever you want, wait until we come back to rescue them!"
After saying this, he was about to leave.
“…”
There were slight noises coming from the carriage, as if someone was standing up and sitting down.
Chen Chunxing couldn't stand listening to it anymore. You will be fined for using puns!
She rolled her eyes and finished the sentence for them, "Medicine!"
Old Zhang looked at Chen Chunxing.
"Golden wound medicine! How can I help without applying the medicine first?"
Lao Zhang slapped himself hard and ran to deliver the medicine.
"Your Excellency truly understands the greater good! Blame it all on me! I'm judging others by my own standards!"
Staring at the slender wrist extending from the carriage, Chen Chunxing clicked his tongue twice.
It was this pair of delicate hands, as white as warm jade, that twisted the neck of a wild wolf?
She developed deep doubts about the abilities of ancient intellectuals.
In addition to Chen Chunxing, Luo Jinzhi also had such doubts at the scene.
Hearing that the sour scholar really wanted to join everyone to suppress the bandits, Luo Jinzhi was shocked and confused. What she said just now was just to ruin his reputation, and she never thought that he would agree!
Now that she was in a difficult situation, Luo Jinzhi looked extremely ugly.
Xue Jiazi can have a bad reputation, but he must not die on the way to take up his post!
Seeing that the carriage really changed direction along with the officials, Luo Jinzhi hurried to stop it.
"Master, please think twice. You are such a noble person, why would you risk your life for such an irrelevant person..."
