Chapter 23
With snot and tears, Mrs. Wang told the whole story in detail.

It turned out that after she and Wang Yingying continued to go to the deep mountains, not long after, they saw the big trap dug by Su Mo, and there was a dead wild boar lying inside.

She was a little small, but it made Mrs. Wang and Wang Yingying feel a little nervous.

Mrs. Wang thought, if the wild boars were sold and the hares were added, how could they get together more than two taels of silver, then the elder son's betrothal gift would be settled.

Not to mention Wang Yingying, as long as she thinks that Su Mo is having a hard time, she will be happy.

It's just that the wild boar's stomach was pierced by a wooden stake in the trap, and the strong smell of blood lingered for a long time. Wang Yingying frowned as the breeze blew past.

She discussed with Mrs. Wang and wanted to take the hare back first, and then ask her younger brothers to pull the wild boar up together.

But Mrs. Wang didn't want to, she was afraid that Su Mo would come over if there was a delay, and a wild boar would be lost for nothing.

Wang Yingying couldn't resist her, and the wild boars on the left and right were not too big, so she walked around with Mrs. Wang, trying to find some vines as ropes, and they worked together to pull the wild boars up.

Who would have thought that a white-fronted tiger with eye-catching eyes would come looking for the smell of blood, and the two of them were immediately frightened dumbfounded.

Afterwards, while running away in a panic, Mrs. Wang pushed Wang Yingying by the wrong hand, and she was able to escape...

Of course, she naturally concealed this. If the villagers knew about it, her reputation would be ruined, and the marriage of the three sons would become a mystery in the future.

The situation is urgent, even if the village head is angry with Mrs. Wang, he has no choice but to press down.

"The two of you help Mrs. Wang go back, and then ask her man and three children to take the hatchet."

"I remember that Jiu'an didn't go to sea today. Go find him quickly and let him go to the foot of the mountain with a hatchet. He knows where the trap is, so he can lead the way."

"Qingzhou, hurry home and find your father, and ask him to take your uncle and the others with a hatchet to the foot of the mountain to meet your Uncle Jiu'an."

The woman who was pointed out hurriedly responded, and someone carried Mrs. Wang to her house.

Someone went to find Chen Jiuan.

Chen Qingzhou also rushed home quickly.

The village chief has poor legs and feet, and going up the mountain is a burden. No matter how impatient he is, he can only wait.

He looked at Su Mo beside him and sighed.

"Mrs. Su, it's Mrs. Wang's fault for this matter. When the daughters of the Wang family are rescued, I will let them make amends for you!"

Luoshan Village is not without bad intentions, but at most it is just a verbal dispute and stealing, this is the first time it has happened.

As the head of a village, he is also responsible for the wrong things done by the people in the village.

"It's okay, as long as people can come back alive."

Su Mo offered to leave with a smile on his face.

"The three children in the family are still waiting for me, so I will go back first."

The village chief waved his hand: "Go."

His heart is very heavy at the moment, if someone dies...

Chen Cihai and the others learned that something had happened to Wang Yingying, so they hurried to the west mountain with a hatchet.

Chen Qingzhou followed behind the three of them, and when they passed by the small courtyard of the Gu family, he walked over decisively.

His dark eyes stared at Gu Xingnian who was sitting on the threshold with his chin dragging, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.

Xingnian sister is getting better and better.

"Sister Xingnian, are you waiting for me?"

Chen Qingzhou walked over with some embarrassment, her small face pretended to be calm, but her earlobes were flushed.

Gu Xingnian raised her eyes, and was about to deny it, but saw her mother appearing behind Chen Qingzhou, Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, she stood up, opened her arms and ran over.

Seeing this, Chen Qingzhou's ears turned redder.

Xingnian sister actually wants to hug me...

Should I avoid it?What should I do if I avoid her and feel sad?But if you don't avoid it, will it be bad if others see it?
Chen Qingzhou hesitated for a long time before making up his mind to stand still and wait for Gu Xingnian to hug him.

then……

Gu Xingnian walked past him shoulder-to-shoulder, and embraced Su Mo.

"Mother, I've been waiting for you for a long time~"

So you didn't wait for me...crying...aggrieved...

Chen Qingzhou's heart, which had just taken off in a straight line, fell to the ground, thumped, and shattered.

Su Mo hugged Gu Xingnian, with a faint smile on her face, and walked slowly towards the courtyard gate.

"Didn't mother come back, what about your brother and the others?"

Gu Xingnian grinned and said, "Brother is going to wash clothes~"

During these days, they all noticed Su Mo's kindness to the three brothers and sisters.

To eat and drink enough, to have new clothes, new quilts and new beds, as well as a small wardrobe of their own... In the past, this was something they didn't even dare to hope for.

Even Gu Jinnian, who was aware of Su Mo's secret, seemed to have a subtle admiration for Su Mo today.

The vigilance deep in their hearts dissipated quietly, and the two children would take the initiative to help and do what they could.

Su Mo didn't stop her, she also understands the truth that being used to a child is like killing a child.

Su Mo nodded with a smile, glanced at the child standing at the gate of the courtyard from the corner of her eye, raised her eyebrows slightly, and suddenly had an idea in her mind.

"Qing Zhou is here?"

She put Gu Xingnian down and said: "Xingnian, go play with Qingzhou, mother is a little tired, go in and sleep for a while."

Gu Xingnian nodded, and then remembered that her good friend had also come, she looked over and blinked: "Brother Qingzhou, why are you here?"

Chen Qingzhou returned a shy smile.

"My father and the others went up the mountain, and I followed. When I saw you sitting on the threshold, I came over..."

Su Mo is not interested in listening to the conversation of the two children. She has more important things to do. After all, someone wants to steal her things, so what if she doesn't pay the price.

She went back to the house, picked out a dark dress and put it on, tied the sleeves and trouser legs with cloth strips as usual, and tied her hair up high so as not to get in the way later.

The hatchet had turned into a dagger and was pinned to the back of his hand. Su Mo also took a piece of lighter cloth, thinking about using it as a veil later.

Doing bad things is bad for people to find out.

The two children were chatting at the gate of the courtyard, the voice was very low, Su Mo closed the door of the living room, walked under the courtyard wall, and climbed over the wall with the help of a wooden pier.

Su Mo walked quickly, and arrived at the foot of the mountain in a short time.

Chen Cihai and the others hadn't gone up the mountain yet, and the village chief was there, which was a little surprising.

Su Mo's eyes flickered slightly, and she stalked lightly and lurked over to listen.

It turned out that when Mrs. Wang arrived at home, she actually stopped her husband and three sons, saying that the beast was too dangerous, and her husband and three sons were all future scholars, so they couldn't die in vain.

This can be said to have stabbed a hornet's nest.

The woman who sent her back was from the Chen family, Chen Cihai and the others had to call her aunt.

The woman immediately turned black, and quarreled with Mrs. Wang. The village head heard the news and passed away, but Mrs. Wang refused to agree.

And Wang Tongsheng and his three sons also hid in the house and did not come out, pretending that they did not hear.

The village chief was furious, but he had no choice but to do anything, it was a living life, and he couldn't really ignore it.

He had no choice but to go up the mountain with a cane and explain the situation to Chen Cihai and the others...

The faces of Chen Cihai and the others were a bit ugly. What Mrs. Wang said was too much. Is it not fate to be with them?
