It’s a pity that her youngest son Li Sizhu, his daughter-in-law, and her youngest daughter have never been seen.
The only people who followed were the eldest and second sons' wives, the third son Li Sanzhu and the third son's wife, and their children.
"I am Li Cuihong's mother. Our village... has been invaded by bandits..." Li's mother cried out as she spoke, "Cuihong, Cuihong, come and pick up your mother."
Ma Yubo, who was on duty at night, was frightened because Butcher Li’s village was exactly his in-laws’ home.
Ma Yubo turned around and ran away, he wanted to tell Zhang Qiurong.
The Li family members sitting in Zhao Yongqiang's house were all shivering, even after they had drunk hot water and eaten the black porridge. It was unclear whether they were shivering from the cold or fear.
Several people put on the tattered cotton-padded jackets they found from Zhao Yongqiang's and Zhao Daqing's homes, and finally stopped shivering.
Butcher Li's eyes were red. "The fourth couple and Cuihua are probably in danger."
Cuihua is Li Cuihong’s younger sister, Li Cuihua.
The youngest grandson was hiccupping all the time; he was frightened and had inhaled a lot of cold air.
In addition, Li's mother was afraid that her grandson would cry and be discovered by the bandits, so she kept covering his mouth and nose. The child still has handprints on his face.
Fortunately, his life was saved.
Speaking of the fourth brother, everyone in the Li family had tears in their eyes.
"It's daybreak now. Boss, you guys go back to the village and check, just in case..., just in case..." Butcher Li still had some hope in his heart.
I don't know whether it was lucky or unfortunate this time. I took the eldest and second sons away, resulting in the loss of three strong laborers in the family. When the bandits came in, they were unable to fight.
This is what Butcher Li considers misfortune.
But Butcher Li felt lucky because he didn't know where these bandits came from and how many of them there were. If they had fought back, they might not have been able to hold out. If they couldn't, the three of them, father and son, would not have left and they would probably have lost their lives.
As Ru'e's family was robbed, he had to stay in Huanghualing temporarily.
Well, it's a good reason for my family to stay here for a long time. This time, I must get the money from Qian Chunhua's family no matter what. My family still has a chance to make a comeback.
Li Dazhu, Li Sanzhu, Li Lianyan, Zhang Qiurong and others from Huanghualing, carrying hoes and vegetables, headed towards Tugang Village.
Li Erzhu was kept by his father, and Butcher Li planned to take this opportunity to move into Qian Chunhua's house.
When Village Chief Wang heard the news, he was even more frightened. It turned out that the county magistrate was not exaggerating. There really were bandits killing people and robbing, and the villages around their Nanzhou County were not safe.
Village chief Wang gathered all the members of the village guard team and informed them of the tragic situation in Tugang Village.
When the Li family came in the morning, some of them had already heard about the situation in Tugang Village.
"I don't know how many bandits there are in Tugang Village."
"Don't be afraid, we have a guard team."
"You know nothing. They are bandits, not cats and dogs. They are demons who kill without blinking an eye. How dare our guard team resist?"
"I heard there are nearly a dozen bandits. If they come to our village, we will be dead."
"What should we do? We can't just wait to die."
"Where is the county magistrate? Doesn't the county magistrate care anymore?"
“…”
For a moment, everyone was talking about it and was in panic.
After Village Chief Wang informed everyone, he asked everyone in the village to be more vigilant, and an additional team of people were added to the daily patrol.
