The young man next to Hongtao also stood there in a daze. His father was not dead?
When the people from Dawang Village who were present heard this hoarse question, they sighed helplessly.
In the countryside, it is really not easy for a family to live without a man to support the household and rely only on a young wife and children.
Now that Chi Xiaotian has grown up and can support the family again, Chi Daming has suddenly emerged again. How can Hong Tao not be angry?
However, what is the relationship between this girl, no, female bandit and Chi Daming? Why is she helping him deliver things?
The people in Dawang Village looked at Xu Jinhuan suspiciously. They really couldn't figure out how these two people who had nothing to do with each other knew each other.
Hong Tao took a while to calm down, then stood up from the ground again and walked to Xu Jinhuan in a daze.
"Miss, can you tell me where you met Chi Daming?"
Xu Jinhuan looked at Hong Tao and said, "In the capital."
Hong Tao burst out laughing after hearing this, "Beijing, it's actually Beijing, it's so close, and he hasn't come back once in all these years!"
After saying that, Hong Tao turned to look at Chi Xiaotian and said seriously, "Xiaotian, remember that your father Chi Daming died ten years ago. He died a long time ago!"
Chi Xiaotian wiped the tears from his face, walked to Hong Tao's side and said in a muffled voice, "Yes, mother, my father died a long time ago!"
Hongtao touched her son's head, then turned to Xu Jinhuan and said.
"Girl, go back and take Chi Daming's things with you. My child's father died a long time ago, so I can't take his things."
Xu Jinhuan was helpless. You can be angry as you like, but it has nothing to do with her, a person who is delivering gifts.
Therefore, she said calmly: "I am not interested in what happened between you two. What I am sending you is the money that Chi Daming deserves after helping me.
He asked me to give you this money, and how you deal with it has nothing to do with me."
After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, he stuffed the two five-liang silver ingots in his hand directly into Hongtao's hand.
Afterwards, Xu Jinhuan turned around and left. She didn't have time to deal with other people's affairs.
Hong Tao felt the heavy weight in her hand, and saw Xu Jinhuan turning and leaving. She wanted to call her, but was stopped by the old lady from Dawang Village.
"Hong Tao, why are you so stubborn? Since Chi Daming gave you the money, just take it. It's what you deserve. If you don't think about yourself, you should think about Xiao Tian.
Now that the village has been flooded, it is unclear whether your old house can withstand it. The money in your hand is for you and your son to live on."
Hongtao looked at her son beside her, and her open mouth closed again. The aunt was right, she should also consider Xiaotian. The child has grown up, and it is time for him to get married and start a family.
Thinking of this, Hong Tao shouted loudly at Xu Jinhuan's back.
"Miss, I was just thinking about it. I'm really sorry. Thank you for helping me carry the things. If you go to the suburbs of Beijing again in the future, you can come to our Dawang Village. I will definitely treat you well."
After hearing this, Xu Jinhuan waved her hand casually. Now she had fulfilled her promise.
She was walking back leisurely when she saw someone looking furtively in her direction. It was obvious that he was not up to any good purpose.
Xu Jinhuan took out the dagger from his sleeve and threw it at the sneaky figure. The dagger grazed the man's ear and finally stabbed into the rock.
"ah!"
Xu Jinhuan walked closer and pulled out the dagger, recognizing that the person who was following and observing her was from Dali Village, so she said with a cold face.
"If you really don't want to live anymore, I will send you to see the King of Hell right now."
The people in Dali Village covered their bleeding ears and shook their heads vigorously.
He never expected that the person talking to the people from Dawang Village was this female devil. If he had seen clearly earlier, he would definitely get the hell away!
"No, don't kill me, I still want to live." The villager said with a sad face.
Xu Jinhuan said calmly: "Why don't you just get out of here?"
"Auntie, I was blind and didn't recognize you. I'm going to get out of here right now, right now!" After the villager said this, he really rolled and crawled back to the cave.
He was really afraid that the girl would see that he was not rolling in a standard posture and stab him in the back. That would be a loss!
When the people from Dali Village and Dalui Village in the cave saw him coming back with blood, they were stunned and then became furious.
"Li Daniu, did someone from Dawang Village hurt you? Don't be afraid, I will help you vent your anger right now!"
After Li Youcai finished speaking, he just waited for Li Daniu to nod, then he would pick up the big axe for chopping wood and rush out to fight with the people from Dawang Village.
But Li Daniu shook his head and said tremblingly: "It's not someone from Dawang Village, it's the female devil in the mountain village. She went to the cave in Dawang Village for some reason.
After chatting with the people from Dawang Village for a while, I also saw her giving something to a woman. She discovered my ear and stabbed it with a dagger.
When they heard that they were from the mountain village, everyone in the cave woke up. After only meeting them once on that day of heavy rain, they knew that they were someone they could not afford to offend.
Even though they can't read or write, they know how to seek benefits and avoid harm.
They could still fight against the people from Dawang Village who were also from the countryside, but as for the people from the mountain village, only a fool would provoke them.
After the cave was quiet for a while, someone suddenly spoke.
"Why would the female devil go to the cave in Dawang Village? Could it be that someone in Dawang Village is familiar with the female devil? Then should we attack Dawang Village in the middle of the night?"
This series of questions hit the people in the cave hard.
Yes, what if that female devil really knows someone in Dawang Village, and they hurt him, will the female devil come to massacre the village?
Similar thoughts played repeatedly in the minds of the people in Dali Village and Daliu Village, and the people of the two villages, who had originally been full of fighting spirit, completely stopped.
"Let's not launch a sneak attack tonight. Let's see how the situation develops." Li Youcai said with a sigh.
Therefore, the crisis of Dawang Village was resolved by Xu Jinhuan with a dagger.
At this time, Xu Jinhuan stretched lazily, looked at the rising sun, and guessed that it was noon. She walked slowly towards the village, ready to have lunch.
But after walking a few steps, he met Xie Datou who had returned, and the strange man behind him.
"Bighead, why did you come back so early?" Xu Jinhuan asked curiously.
Xie Datou scratched his head and explained, "Boss, we have already bought horses and carriages and put them at the foot of the mountain. They are setting up camp and have decided not to go up the mountain tonight.
Tomorrow morning, when all our people are gathered, we can leave directly. Let me go up the mountain first and tell you, Boss."
After explaining this, Xie Datou pointed at the young man with a pale face behind him.
"This is Brother Kong Duiyue. He saved my life before. I didn't expect to meet him at the foot of the mountain."
