Xiushui clenched his fists after hearing this.
After the old lady found out that it was Ma Laojiu who did the immoral thing, she was so angry that she wanted to chop him on the spot.
"People like this shouldn't be alive. If they're alive, they're just causing trouble for others! They must be killed."
The grandfather and grandson went to find someone angrily, trying to get Ma Laojiu out.
However, not to mention Ma Laojiu, even his accomplices have disappeared.
"Damn, this guy runs fast."
The old lady cursed angrily, while Xiushui questioned the refugees.
After asking around, it was basically confirmed that after staying for a few days, Ma Laojiu might have realized something was wrong today, or he might have run away after confirming that he had successfully set a trap for the Wen family.
When I went back, the old man and the young lady who were seeing the patient didn't look well either.
"It's confirmed. Five children have already shown initial symptoms. Luckily, we discovered it early. If we had discovered it later, everyone in the team would have been infected."
"This disease is easy to treat in the early stages. The only thing to worry about is the cough. Once the cough starts, it is easy to infect others. All five of us only need to take the medicine for three days and we are basically cured."
The adults were relieved to know that the children only had to take the medicine for three days.
The Wen family did not hide this matter from everyone. Now that they are fleeing from famine, they can't keep everything to themselves.
It would be foolish not to say something, so you have to expose it and let everyone know.
"How abominable! Why are the Ma family so disgusting? Should we let them stay?"
"Yes, Ma Laojiu doesn't even care about his family members, so is it necessary for us to keep their family members in the team?
He could do this to us, it's obvious he's out for revenge. Wouldn't he be even more proud if we left his family behind?"
"Get rid of them. We don't want people like this in the team."
The villagers, who shared the same hatred for the enemy, could no longer bear to listen and just wanted to drive away Ma Laojiu's entire family.
The old village chief was also in a difficult situation and was very angry with Ma Laojiu, but to be honest, it was a bit unreasonable to vent his anger on the other party's family and drive them away...
He looked at Wen Bibo for help, but the latter raised his hand and signaled everyone to calm down.
"I know everyone is angry, but don't you find it strange? Even if Ma Laojiu has no conscience, he should not have thought that if he gets into trouble, his wife and children will be implicated.
But even so, he still did this. As a smart man, it is impossible for him not to think of it, right? "
Old Qian shuddered. "So there's something wrong here? He's either being held hostage, or he has reasons for doing what he did."
"Well, considering Ma Laojiu's usual shrewdness, it's unlikely he would do something so foolish. Otherwise, let's let the Ma family follow at the end of our team.
Firstly, it was a punishment, and secondly, seeing his family at the back, Ma Laojiu would probably have some thoughts.
After a moment's thought, everyone understood the meaning of her actions.
Of course, being placed at the end is the most dangerous, after all, being at the end means being attacked by refugees at any time and anywhere.
It is also easy to be targeted by bandits and others.
If Ma Laojiu still cared about his family, he would quietly follow and contact them.
If they can make contact, it means we have a chance to catch him.
"Well, it would be easy if we could lure Ma Laojiu out. Even if they were at the back, we would still be busy hurrying on.
I’m just afraid that if someone contacts us, we might not even notice.”
Lao Li raised a question.
The old lady glanced at Xiushui meaningfully and waved her hand indifferently.
"It's okay. I think this is feasible. Maybe if we are more vigilant, we can catch Ma Laojiu."
"Since you said so, let's do it."
The old village chief made the final decision. After hearing that Ma Laojiu had done something that harmed the entire village again, the Ma family trembled with fear.
When he was sent to the back of the team, he was unwilling but did not struggle.
After all, it is better to let them follow the team now than to go out alone and become refugees.
"If Ma Laojiu contacts us, we will definitely tell the team. The team treats us so well, we can't go against our conscience."
What Ma Laojiu's son said was very sensible, but everyone just listened to it.
After watching the villagers leave, the Ma family moved to the back of the team.
Looking at the refugees behind them who were watching with eager eyes, it felt like these people would rush over at any time.
Seventeen-year-old Ma Ying glanced at Zhou Fengchun in front of him, then looked behind him and muttered to his mother with some resentment.
"Mom, do you think our dad really doesn't care about us anymore? How could he do this?
It would be fine if they just ruined my reputation, but now they've also made us lose status in the team.
If he really has the ability to get rid of us and doesn't need to rely on the team, then we will also accept it.
It’s really frustrating when you start something and then don’t have the ability to finish it.”
While pushing the simple carriage, Ma Xu turned around and stared at the person behind him vigilantly.
After confirming that the person following her was not her man, she became a little angry.
"Your father isn't the kind of person who would do something stupid. You have to believe him. If he says he will come back to take us to live a good life, then he will definitely do it."
"Mom, do you still believe him? My dad wanted to tell me to Brother Zhou, but what happened in the end?
In the end, he gave our things to Widow Lin. Now Widow Lin has become a flatterer to the Luo family.
And let Brother Zhou and Luo Keren spend every day together, while I, your daughter, have a funny reputation."
When it came to the fierce fight between Widow Lin and the Luo family, Ma Xu was not so angry.
"My dear, you only saw Luo Keren and Zhou Fengchun fighting, but you didn't see Luo Keren's mother's face getting increasingly gloomy as she got angry.
Listen to your mother, and you'll see that Luo Zhiyuan's wife, Luo Li, is not that cowardly.
Even though Widow Lin is being taken care of now, she can still get close to Mr. Luo every day.
Who knows how that woman will react in the future. Most importantly, Luo Li is now pestering Old Madam Wen every day.
Do you think Luo Zhiyuan will be able to benefit from being close to Old Lady Wen?"
Ma Ying opened her mouth wide, but her brother Ma Xiaosan exclaimed in surprise.
"Mother, you don't mean to say that Mrs. Luo Li is planning to divorce her husband like Mrs. Wen if Luo Zhiyuan does something dishonest, right?
This, this, this... Come to think of it, it's not impossible. After all, the wife of Old Man Li, who was close to Old Madam Wen, also divorced her husband.
Now that she's so obviously getting close to Old Lady Wen, isn't it obvious she's trying to learn from him? Women are so scary. I'll probably never marry a wife again if I can.
If I don't serve you well, not only will my money be used, but I'll also be forced to leave the monastery. The risk factor is too high."
This statement naturally earned her a beating from Ma Xu. But she also did not deny the truth of her youngest son's statement.
Ma Ying suddenly said something with admiration.
"Mom, I think our family needs to get closer to the Wen family. Perhaps, if we get closer, our family's fortune will improve."
