Chapter 23

After the man and the teenager left, Qiao Wei tied the driver who had been kicked by s.h.i.+qi(17) feet and asked his driver to report the case to the county.

        The coachman felt very guilty for not being able to help, and left without a word.

        He went to the nearby county council, where Uncle Luo worked as a permanent worker.

        This county magistrate is a good person, has been working here for more than ten years, and had made many great achievements, and soon he is sent to arrest criminals.

        “him?” he quickly grabbed the driver.

        Qiao Wei pointed to the three strong men who had just regained consciousness: “And them.”

      The three men were stunned, why us? Didn't you say you'd leave us?

        The leader headed and said, “Well, woman, we didn't agree that way at the beginning!”

        Qiao Wei's said coldly: “You didn't bother my children at the beginning.”

The leader cried, “No, it's him who dealt with the kid! not us! We're not with him!”

        Qiao Wei indifferently said, “It doesn't matter! you can say this to the county magistrate.”

          No, the county magistrate is a strict official, falling to his hands, his a.s.s is going to bloom!

        He almost knelt down to Qiao Wei: “Lady! We have to help you with the letter!”

        Qiao Wei uttered a word: “No need now. Any letter, I will send it myself.”

        The three desperately begged for mercy–

        “Lady! Spare our life!”

        “Lady, we really don't know him!”

        “We just hired his carriage! He had a cheap carriage … it was the first time we saw him …”

        The three bullies were crying, and the driver was silent, so calm that people couldn't see that he had broken two ribs by being kicked by s.h.i.+qi.

        This can't be just a coachman at all. As for who he is, we can't make a conclusion for the moment. He must a child trafficker, otherwise why would he catch a child?

        The three bullies are mixed up with him, even though they want to threaten her to submit, Qiao Wei can be sure that they are not a same group. But still, they caused the driver to provoke them, and it was “tiring” to handle them.

        A group was taken away and locked in the cell.

        On the way back, Madam Luo kept blaming herself for not protecting her child. Qiao Wei comforted her: “That man has martial arts, even I can't catch him, don't need to say about you, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault. “

        When Auntie Luo saw Xiao Wei not blame her, she felt a little bit more relieved, but she was still very scared: ” it was so dangerous, and I won't let you go to do business anymore.”

        Qiao Wei smiled slightly: ” If you want to make money there is not any way without provoking hate of others. It's common for people to be jealous. If others don't provoke me, I won't provoke them. That's natural, that's ok too “

        “But …” Aunt Luo was still not a.s.sured.

        Qiao Wei smiled with a convincing smile: “You can rest a.s.sured that I'm doing a small business, and offending only some small businessmen, they can't play trick that I can handle it.”

        Just that we cant take the children to the street anymore.

        She can deal with anyone alone, but if dealt with the children, she can't.

        But where can I leave my child without taking them with me?

        “Mother, do we have a private servant in our village?” She asked.

        In modern times, children of this age are attending kindergartens. In ancient times, there was obviously no kindergarten, but she remembered that there was private servant in ancient times.

        Auntie Luo said: “There is no place in the village.”

        “What about the village next door?” Qiao Wei asked again.

        Mrs. Luo shook her head: “None, there are hundreds of miles, there are two private servants in town. Do you want Jingyun to go to school?”

        Qiao Wei touched the sleeping child: “He is so young right?”

        Mrs. Luo frowned: “I don't know about this. Our village has only Cuiyun's younger brother, who is going to his school tomorrow. Will you ask him by the way?”

        “it is good.”

        As something happened on the road, they came back a little later than the previous two days. It was already afternoon in the mountain yard. The two children were hungry. Qiao Wei got into the kitchen and put down a few bowls of shredded noodles.

        The children ate as usual and enjoyed the delicousness. It seemed that the recent incident had not affected the two. Qiao Wei secretly rea.s.sured.

        Auntie Luo gathered her clothes in the yard, Qiao Wei brought fresh bait, and entered the mountain again.

        After poaching, she found her two trap cages, one with a pheasant, and the other with a small string of money.

        Really  the man understood it.

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

        Qiao Wei packed the money into a money bag, cleaned the cage and replaced it with fresh bait.

        …

        Himefu

        In Baimeiyuan, Mrs. Ji sat down again to enjoy the flowers, holding a “white rabbit” in her hand, and ate with pleasure.

        The girl raised her wrists and poured a cup of tea to Mrs. Ji.

        Mrs. Ji laughed and said, “I have troubled you, go to such a far away place every day to buy something for me.”

        The girl smiled shyly: “What does the old lady say? Its an honor for  Xier.”

        Mrs. Ji finished eating a piece of glutinous rice cake with red beans and picked up a taro s...o...b..ll.

        The girl was pleased to see the old lady eating, her eyes lightened, and she sat upright and said, “It's almost Chinese New Year, hasn't the brother come back?”

        Madam Ji said angrily: “Yeah, I don't know where this messy boy went! I haven't been home for a year.”

        No more words.

        The girl was a little anxious. Wasn't she co-axing the old lady all day for her own relations.h.i.+p with the brother?

        The old lady said nothing, was he still thinking about the elder sister who had been evicted?

        However, the eldest sister has done the kind of cold and vulgar things, and is no longer eligible to marry him.

        Or is it … the old lady wants to simply withdraw from her marriage contract with Ember House?

        The old lady suddenly said, “But don't worry, if he comes back, I will let him see you.”

        This is confessing herself in disguise, and the girl's heart burst into a rush: “Thank you old lady!”

        …

        Deep in the woods, in a small hut.

        s.h.i.+qi is squatting on the ground in the yard, blinking his eyes to see the rabbit on the fire, the rabbit is tender, the fire is roasting, and hissing oil.

        The drool of s.h.i.+qi flowed down from his mouth.

        The man turned the rabbit and asked s.h.i.+qi: “Spicy?”

        s.h.i.+qi nodded.

        The man brushed some paprika, flipped and roasted for a while, sprinkled sesame and green onion evenly, tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to s.h.i.+qi: “It's ready to eat.”

        s.h.i.+qi grabbed the rabbit's legs and withdrawn.
