Xiaohua was a little depressed when she heard this: "Congbao, are you really going to live in Shanghai? Will you come back in the future? Is it really like what the adults said, that after you leave, we will be people from two different worlds?"
Although Jinwa was a little depressed, he quickly regained his optimism: "No matter where Congbao goes, he is my best brother. He promised to come back to see us."
Tian Congbao opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. Gu Xi smiled and comforted everyone: "You are all his friends who grew up together. He will definitely come back to see you. You also need to study hard. When you pass the college entrance examination and come to Shanghai in the future, we can play together again."
After hearing this, Xiaohua felt even sadder. She lowered her head and said softly, "But my parents didn't plan for me to go to college. They wanted me to get married after I graduated from junior high school. I don't want to get married casually, but I have no choice."
Xiaohua is a student in Wu Yue's class. Wu Yue comforted her, "Teacher promises you that as long as you want to continue to go to school, I will convince your parents. You must continue to work hard. You have good grades and can be in the top ten in the grade. You will definitely have a bright future."
Gu Xi also nodded: "Well, I will tell the village chief that every child can continue to study according to their own wishes. If the family disagrees, the village will pay for it."
Xiaohua's eyes lit up: "Really? Can I continue to study and go to college? Then I can go to Shanghai and continue to be friends with Congbao."
Jin Wa couldn't help but say, "Xiao Hua, you want to go to Shanghai? What should I do? My dad said that I'm not cut out for studying, so you're all going to leave me, and that won't work."
Jinwa's nervous look made the adults laugh. Lin Ling teased him, "Then it's not too late for you to study hard from now on. It all depends on how deep your relationship with them is. Of course, you can also make new friends and forget about them quickly, so you don't have to study anymore."
Jinwa immediately cried out in surprise, "How can that be possible? I will not forget them. I will study hard and I want to go to Shanghai."
Tian Congbao looked at Jinwa and said seriously, "I'll wait for you in Shanghai. You must pass the exam and we can continue to play together and be good brothers."
No one expected that today's encouragement would make Jinwa study really hard. Coupled with his cleverness, he was admitted to the same school as Congbao and also achieved outstanding results in his career.
Gao Jinghong couldn't help but ask: "Will the college entrance examination really be resumed? Will we return to the city?"
Gu Xi nodded: "That's what's being spread out there right now, it should be 90% true."
Gao Jinghong didn't say anything else. She ate the cake unconsciously, not knowing what she was thinking.
Wei Dashu looked at her, his eyes full of struggle.
Gu Xi looked at this scene and knew that once the news of returning to the city was confirmed, many families would face breakups and many people would try their best to go back.
She couldn't help but lean towards Wang Xu, and Wang Xu hugged her. They both felt extremely lucky.
After the meal, Wang Xu and Wei Qingzhe volunteered to wash the dishes they brought, Gu Xi and Wu Yue accompanied them, and the others were responsible for picking up the garbage.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law appeared again, and there were two more pairs beside them. One of the young women looked a little stupid.
Gu Xi's suspicion grew even stronger. The other side didn't expect that Gu Xi and his people were still there, so they were extremely vigilant at all times.
Gu Xi tried her best to control herself from looking at the other person. When the other person saw that she was not looking at her, he breathed a sigh of relief and started cursing at her.
Wang Xu and Wei Qingzhe also noticed the situation. They exchanged glances, tacitly quickened their hands' movements, and prepared to leave after washing.
When the other party saw that they were about to leave, they suddenly became excited. Perhaps these two normal young women felt that Gu Xi and the others were not as indifferent as others, and the attention they received in the morning made them feel that it was their only chance to save themselves.
One stopped the older woman behind him, while the woman from the morning ran towards the river like crazy, limping and shouting, "Help."
There were three older women behind him. One was running back as if to call for help, and the other was trying to shake off the young woman who was blocking the way. However, the women seemed to explode in desperation and held the two older women tightly, giving the other one a chance to escape and call for help.
Wei Qingzhe and Wang Xu immediately pulled Gu Xi and Wu Yue and said, "You guys take the children and quickly retreat to the village. Call for help as well. The more the better."
Gu Xi grabbed Wang Xu in fear: "They may be the behavior of the entire village, and there are only a few of you. You can't do this."
Wei Qingzhe handed Wu Yue to Gu Xi: "Gu Xi, you are the calmest. Take the child and the woman back safely."
Gu Xi was shaking with fear, and Wang Xu comforted her: "Be good and go back to get help."
The others soon noticed the situation here, but they didn't have time to ask about the situation. Five or six men had already rushed over. Wang Xu immediately ran into the river, pulled the lame woman back, and pushed Gu Xi over: "Hurry up, it will be dangerous if you don't leave now.
Seeing the situation, Gu Xi knew that she had to buy time to find help, so she shouted to Lin Ling, "Carry her on your back and go."
The children had no idea what was going on and were all crying with fear. Wu Yue was also extremely nervous.
Gu Xi took a deep breath to calm herself down: "All children, hold the clothes of the person in front of you and run home quickly. Jinwa leads the way in front, Congbao follows behind, run quickly, don't take anything away, go back and find someone to help. Congbao, I'm leaving everything to you, don't lose anything."
Tian Congbao and Jinwa received the order and quickly evacuated with all the children. Since they often went into the mountains with Wang Xu, they were very familiar with the routes and terrain.
Lin Ling handed the woman to Gu Xi: "I'll leave a few people to help, you guys go quickly."
Gu Xi didn't know where she got the strength from, she carried the man on her back and quickly told the others to follow her: "Lu Yun, if you can run fast, go back and call for help as quickly as possible. Wang Xu and the others' safety depends on you, the faster the better."
Lu Yun immediately ran back without looking back. She had been practicing running but she never thought that one day it would come in handy. She tried hard to adjust her breathing to make herself run faster.
The man on the other side had already crossed half of the river. Wang Xu and a few other people found some handy tools and slowly retreated.
"These five or six men probably came with the women to hunt game in the mountains. The village shouldn't be too close. Let's retreat slowly to buy more time."
The five people on the other side ran over, looking angry and said, "Give her back. She is my wife. If you don't, we will be rude to you!"
Wang Xu was not afraid at all. These five people could not resist beating him: "If she was your wife, why would she scream for help?"
The man who was talking about his wife quickly replied: "She is mentally ill. When she is ill, she thinks everyone wants to harm her."
Lin Ling sneered: "I think you are just liars and human traffickers!"
The word "human trafficker" brought the tense atmosphere to a new level.
The man on the other side retorted fiercely: "She was an educated youth sent to the countryside. We didn't kidnap her. She couldn't adapt to the environment and went crazy."
