Chapter 20

After seeing the man and the boy leave, Qiao Wei ties up the coachman who was kicked by 17 and lets his coachman report to the county government.

The coachman felt very guilty for his failure to act bravely and went without saying a word.

He went to the county government nearby, where Uncle Luo worked for a long time.

The magistrate has been working for more than ten years. He dare not say how many great achievements he has made, but at least he is of excellent character. Soon he was sent to arrest the criminals.

"Just him?" The constable grabs the coachman.

Qiao Wei pointed to the three strong men who had just regained consciousness over there: "and them."

Three people are one Zheng, how to still have us? Didn't you agree to let us go?

The strong man at the head said: "ah, nvxia, we didn't make such an agreement at the beginning!"

Qiao Wei Mou light a cool way: "at the beginning you didn't abduct my child."

The strong man cried and said, "no, it's him who abducted your child! It's not us! We are not with him

Qiao Wei light way: "this kind of words, keep and county Taiye say."

No way. The county magistrate is an honest and upright official. If he falls into his hands, his ass will blossom!

He almost knelt down to Qiao Wei: "nvxia! Nvxia! We have to help you with the letter

Qiaowei a word a way: "now don't use, what letter, I send."

Three people desperately beg for mercy -

"nvxia, please forgive me! Nvxia, spare your life

"Nvxia, we really don't know him!"

"We just hired his car! His car is cheap It's the first time we've met him... "

The three bullies were crying, but the coachman didn't say a word. He was so calm that people couldn't see that he was kicked by seventeen and broke two ribs.

Maybe it's not a coachman at all. As for who it is, we can't make a final conclusion for the moment. Maybe it's a personal dealer. Otherwise, why catch the children?

The three bullies just want to threaten her, but Qiao Wei is sure that they are not with this person. But after all, it was they who provoked the coachman. I'd like to "trouble" them to stay in the Yamen for a few days.

They were taken away by the Constable of Yamen.

On the way back, aunt Luo kept blaming herself for not protecting her child. Qiao Wei comforted her and said, "that man has martial arts skills. I can't rob him. Don't talk about you. Don't blame yourself any more. It's not your fault."

Seeing that Xiaowei didn't blame her, aunt Luo felt better, but she was still very afraid: "if I knew it was so dangerous, I wouldn't encourage you to do business."

Qiao Wei said with a smile: "if you don't want to attract hatred, you don't have to make money, but I want to earn money, so it's common sense to attract hatred. These people deceive me as a woman and want to scare me away. If I can't, they will have no choice. "

"But..." Aunt Luo is still worried.

Qiao Wei showed a convincing smile: "don't worry, I'm in a small business. Those who offend are small businessmen. They can't play big tricks. I can deal with them."

It's just two kids. I can't take them to the street anymore.

She has a way to deal with everyone by herself, but it would be impossible to prevent anyone from attacking her children when she is unprepared, as she is today.

But if we don't take our children with us, where can we send them?

"Ganniang, is there a private school in our village?" She asked.

In modern times, children of this age are in kindergartens. In ancient times, there was no kindergarten, but she remembers that there were private schools in ancient times.

Aunt Luo said, "there is no one in the village."

"What about the next village?" Qiao Wei asked again.

Aunt Luo shook her head: "no, there are only two private schools in the town. Do you want Jing Yun to study?"

Qiao Wei touched the sleeping child: "he is so small, private school accept?"

Aunt Luo frowned: "I don't know. There is only Cuiyun's younger brother in our village studying in private school. He will go to his house tomorrow. Would you ask him by the way?"

"Good."

I came back later than the previous two days. It was already afternoon when I got to the courtyard on the mountain. Two children hungry, Qiaowei busy into the kitchen, under a few bowls of shredded meat noodles.

The children are eating well. It seems that what happened just now has no effect on them. Qiao Wei is secretly relieved.

Aunt Luo collects her clothes in the yard. Qiao Wei takes fresh bait and goes into the mountain again.

Taking Guancong aside, she found her own two trap cages, one with a pheasant, and the other with a small string of money, which was exactly 100 Wen.

I really understand. A white mosquito.

One hundred Wen is the price of the hare. It seems that the man bought a rabbit.

Qiao Wei put the copper into her purse, cleaned the cage and put on fresh bait.

……

in Baimei courtyard, Mrs. Ji sits in the corridor to enjoy the flowers, holding a "little white rabbit" and eating happily.The girl raised her jade white wrist and poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Ji.

Mrs. Ji said with a smile, "I've bothered you. I go so far every day to buy things for my old lady."

The girl gave a shy smile: "what's the old lady saying? It's a blessing for Xi'er to be filial to you. "

After eating a piece of red bean glutinous rice cake, Mrs. Ji picked up a taro snowball.

Seeing that the old lady was happy, the girl sat up straight and said, "it's almost Chinese New Year. Hasn't the adult come back yet?"

Mrs. Ji said: "yes, I don't know where this smelly boy has gone for me! It's been a year. "

More, no more.

The girl was a little worried. She flattered the old lady all the time just for the sake of her marriage with master Mingxiu?

The old lady never mentions it. Is she still thinking about the elder sister who has been expelled from the house?

But the elder sister has done something immoral. She is no longer qualified to marry into Ji's house.

Or Does the old lady want to withdraw her engagement with uncle's house?

The old lady suddenly said, "but don't worry. If Mingxiu comes back, I will let him see you."

This is disguised to admit themselves, the girl's heart filled with a wave of joy: "thank you, old lady!"

……

Deep in the mountains, in a small hut.

Seventeen is squatting on the ground of the yard, blinking eyes to see the hare on the fire. The hare is fat and tender. When the open fire is roasted, it hisses and emits oil.

Seventeen people's saliva came down.

The man turned over the hare and asked seventeen, "spicy?"

Seventeen nodded.

The man brushed some chili powder, flipped and roasted for a while, sprinkled sesame and scallion evenly, tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to seventeen: "you can eat it."

Seventeen, holding the rabbit's leg, gnawed it.
