"Where's the child!" Shen Ningsi shouted as soon as he opened his eyes.
The doctor quickly held Shen Ningsi's shoulders and said, "The children are all fine. General Gu arrived and rescued them all. Madam Gu, your internal organs are all injured now. Don't move!"
Shen Ningsi is now regarded as a benefactor by everyone in Wanning Village. The doctor also learned from the soldiers that Shen Ningsi was retaliated by the Wang family.
He shed tears silently, "Madam Gu, why did you do this? In order to prevent us villagers from suffering losses, you allowed yourself to be targeted by the Wang family in vain, and even suffered such serious injuries. If General Gu hadn't arrived in time..."
Thinking of Wang Qiang's hooligan behavior as described by the villagers, the doctor wanted to poison Wang Qiang to death!
Fan Xing also hurried over after receiving the news. Seeing Shen Ningsi lying on the bed dying, Fan Xing's face turned pale.
"You're supposed to be a killing god! How can you protect people? Didn't you say that with your Gu family army here, not even a fly can bite Madam Gu?"
Fan Xing also couldn't bear to see the villagers living a hard life. Now the only person who could save Wanning Village was Shen Ningsi. She was injured, and the potato planting would be delayed again! In his anxiety, Fan Xing didn't care that the person in front of him was Gu Shacai.
"Just for the Wang family, you transferred all the people away. I've heard that you, Gu Shacai, don't obey orders on the battlefield and always like to make a small profit with a big investment. Now, you finally suffer a loss!" Fan Xing put his hands on his hips.
"I won't do that again in the future." Gu Hong stood in the dark corner of the room. No one could see Gu Hong's expression, only his low and cold voice could be heard.
Fan Xing's anger was like hitting cotton. He couldn't help but spit out a curse, "I guess you won't dare to act so rashly in the future."
This is Gu Hong’s own woman, and Gu Hong is probably the one who feels the most distressed.
Fan Xing was worried about other things. "Mrs. Gu is the only one who knows how to grow potatoes. What should we do now that she's injured? What will happen to the people of Wanning Village?"
When Shen Ningsi heard that the children were safe, the big stone in her heart fell to the ground.
She suppressed her pain and said, "Don't worry, Master Fan. I will still go to every corner of the village to explain the planting methods."
Fan Xing was delighted, but was interrupted just as he was about to speak.
"Just lie down and relax!"
Gu Hong walked out from the darkness, his face full of annoyance, "There are a lot of grown men here, how can you, a woman, endure the pain and find a way to solve it!"
He stared coldly at Fan Xing, "I will immediately order the capital to allocate food, enough to feed the people of Wanning Village for a month."
How could Fan Xing not know how difficult this was? When Gu Hong was full of military merits and had the title of General Guardian of the Country, he still didn't ask the higher-ups to allocate food. Now he has a solution?
Gu Hong's face was filled with murderous intent. "Since I've spoken, I will never break my promise. You don't need to worry."
"If you dare to let Shen Ningsi do something again, I will peel your skin off."
His voice was calm and without any threat, but for the first time, Fan Xing felt Gu Hong's unreserved murderous intent.
"Yes, I will follow your orders, General."
Gu Hong directly dragged Fan Xing out of the house so that Shen Ningsi could rest assured and recuperate in the house.
Fan Xing was grabbed by the collar and stumbled forward. He kept saying, "General, can we talk it over? I know you care about women, and I promise I won't bother Madam Gu while she's recovering. But could you please tell me how you plan to ask the capital for food?"
Gu Hong looked at the two brothers standing in the yard, obviously waiting for him, and narrowed his eyes slightly. He let go of Fan Xing's collar.
"roll."
“…”
Fan Xing felt that his expression was a little bit strained, and he pulled the corner of his mouth a little stiffly, "General Gu, if you don't tell me this, I really don't know what to do."
"There must be some large grain storage facilities in the surrounding cities."
He had grown up in the countryside, without the many rules that children in the capital had to abide by. If he had just followed orders from above, Gu Hong would have died hundreds of times.
In order to prevent Shen Ningsi from getting hurt and to keep the people of Wanning Village alive, we have to find another shortcut.
Gu Hong kicked Fan Xing on the butt, "Zhao Xianxing, throw him out!"
"Why did you call him here? I know it. You must have bad intentions in placing him next to me!"
Fan Xing's voice finally disappeared in the yard, and Gu Hong then looked at the two children whose height was only below his shoulders.
After staring at each other for a long time, Gu Hong suddenly clenched his fingers and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't think it through."
As soon as these words fell, Gu Xiuwu exploded. He rushed forward and punched Gu Hong hard, "You still know that you haven't thought it through. If you can't protect mother, can you please not take us away? If my brother and I were at home, we would never let mother suffer like this!"
Gu Xiuwu was like a mad little lion. His own fists were red and swollen, not to mention Gu Hong's condition.
Gu Xiuwu's eyes were bloodshot as he roared, "Did you hear what the doctor said? Mom's fingers are broken. She was already taken to Black Tiger Village and suffered a lot during her confinement. Now her fingers are broken, and her ribs are almost broken too. She's going to have lifelong problems!"
He suddenly stopped shouting, but his fists kept hitting harder and harder.
Sanyazi was frightened when he heard the muffled sound. He hesitated for a few seconds and finally knelt down on one knee.
"Wu'er, this is all Sanyazi's fault. The general has already ordered Sanyazi to protect the lady, but it was Sanyazi who took the initiative to come looking for you. No matter how wrong it is, it's all Sanyazi's fault!"
"What's the use of blaming you." Gu Xiuwu still didn't speak, and Gu Xiuwen spoke first.
He stared at Gu Hong, "Is there only one person protecting the general's wife? I don't understand how you in the capital take care of a lady. I only know that Fan Xing has dozens of guards around him, but you only sent a Sanyazi to be with my mother."
Gu Xiuwu suddenly stopped fighting, squatting on the ground and burying his face in his arms. The only way anyone could tell he was crying was by the heaving of his shoulders.
Gu Xiuwen's throat tightened and his voice became hoarse. "General Gu, you are now a general, a high-ranking official in the capital. If you want to change your wife, isn't that a simple matter?"
"Since mother and we all thought you were dead, why did you come back? You came back without telling mother your identity and didn't give me the treatment I deserved."
He curled his lips in mockery. "Who would believe it if I told you that a general's wife was nearly humiliated by a villager? In order to protect two babies, the general's wife was nearly beaten to death."
"Do you think mother is enjoying herself in Wanning Village?" Gu Xiuwen's eyes glistened with tears. "Mother almost sold herself for a bag of rice! Do you, General Gu, know all this? You only care about your official uniform!"
