Chapter 4 Are you worthy?

I heard a few days ago that bandits were robbing passers-by.

Could it be that they had wandered into their village?

Village chief Li Chunshou's hand holding the dry tobacco pole trembled unconsciously.

Bandits! That would kill people.

How dare she, Gu Liu?
  The yamen servant moved very quickly. In less than a stick of incense, a baggage containing money was thrown in front of Gu Liu and the others. A total of twenty white silver ingots.

Now Mrs. Gu Liu had a hard time explaining herself.

One silver ingot is ten taels, a total of twenty. The villagers present had never seen so much money in their lives.

It is impossible to say that you are not greedy.

But there must also be a life flower.

Just like the Gu Dashan family, the government servants put a big knife on their necks and chopped them off as soon as they were told.

"Ms. Gu Liu, tell me! Where did this money come from? Don't say you saved it. No one in your family is studying and no one is an official. However, you are good at saving money, and you have saved it all for the government. "

What?
  Official silver?

The crowd went wild.

"How come the Dashan family has official silver? Could it be that they are really colluding with bandits?"

Not to mention the villagers, the government officials were also in disbelief that official silver could still be found in a small village.

"Come here, take him back to the Yamen. Let your Excellency decide."

"What an injustice! We didn't know this was official silver. Please spare my life, sir."

Mrs. Gu Liu was frightened. How did she know that this was official silver? She is illiterate.

"Village Chief, Village Chief, we really didn't know. I sold the two brats from Dalang's family. Old lady, I really didn't know they were bandits."

"Village Chief, please help me and beg for mercy. We were wronged."

How can you still survive after entering the yamen?
  Mrs. Gu Liu could no longer care about anything else and personally admitted that she had sold her child. He knelt and crawled to Li Chunshou's feet, pulled his trousers and kept begging for mercy.

Gu Dashan was also dumbfounded.

The good days of fantasy have only passed half a day, and my life is about to die.

"Uncle the village chief, the official, my mother did all the selling of children alone, it has nothing to do with me!"

It is better for one person to die than for the whole family to die.

It was better to die than to live, so Gu Dashan passed all the responsibilities to Gu Liu.

"My mother has long wanted to sell those two children. She has contacted several buyers before, but Gu Yunning, a little bastard..."

"Clap~"

A stone hit Gu Dashan in the mouth, knocking out several of his teeth.

Lin Changyi, who took action, had a gloomy face and a cold tone.

"Who are you calling the little bastard? You can't speak, so there's no need to say anything."

While talking about getting a kitchen knife from nowhere, there was a "stab~" sound, and a long cut was made on Gu Dashan's entire face, extending from the corner of his mouth to behind his ears.

Too brutal.

No one saw how it was done.

Even the well-informed government officials couldn't help but feel pain on their faces.

"Can we talk properly now?"

Do you really think she can't deal with them?

I just want to save the child first.

Village chief Li Chunshou's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

I originally thought that it would be no big deal if I alerted the government. I just wanted to send him back alive. If you pay a few taels of silver for the hard work, everyone can still help chip it in. After all, he had lost his child, the elder man was dead, and he had left orphans and widowers behind. He didn't expect that Gu Liu and the others would do such a hateful thing, so he had to take care of it.

"Ms. Gu Liu, you still haven't told me honestly how you sold your child to the bandits."

He couldn't wait to go up and kick Gu Liu, a selfish and greedy old woman.

"The old woman really didn't know they were bandits, she really didn't know!"

Mrs. Gu Liu was still complaining.

"My lord, I swear, if I find out that they are bandits, I will die badly."

"Do you know that you will not die well? According to the law, those who steal other people's children and sell them will be sentenced to three years of hard labor." "Gu Liu, you will spend those three years in prison well. As for your son colluding with you, If they are accomplices, they will be given the same punishment."

"you……"

Mrs. Gu Liu was so angry that she almost fainted, "Ms. Lin, we are a family after all. Do you have to kill them all?"

"Hmph! A family?"

Lin Changyi sneered, "Ask my Yun Ning, are you worthy?"

"Not worthy."

Gu Yunning's eyes were red and she said angrily: "You sold my brother, and we don't have a family like you."

The little boy's eyes were moist, he finally didn't have to fight alone, someone finally protected him and his brothers.

"Did you hear that? You don't deserve it."

The officials forced Gu Dashan and his son away. I always feel like I've overlooked something.

The village chief came back from seeing off the government servants and said with a fierce face: "Okay! Let's all disperse. If anyone dares to bully other people's orphans and widowed mothers in the future, I will be the first to deal with you."

"Do you still need to take care of us? Lin can kill us all alone."

Mrs. Qiu said meanly: "She makes it look like she was born by herself. Why did she marry the second son of the Gu family? Who knows who she married?"

"The groom died on the day of the wedding. She was afraid that she would not be able to get married and would have to live and die in someone else's family. She would either be a troublemaker or a broom star."

Lin Changyi's eyes turned cold: "What does it matter if I was born? I am married to Erlang. I haven't left the official job yet. It will be clear if I call you back and ask."

Mrs. Qiu was speechless after two sentences.

"Don't you want to be fair?"

Lin Changyi snorted coldly: "What do you mean by fair words? Why didn't you come out and say fair words when Gu Liu was abducting the child?"

"Even if I haven't entered the Gu family, if I see something like this, someone will help."

Meaning, they are not human?

The villagers were embarrassed for a while and dispersed with red faces.

Ask yourself, no one can do what Lin is like.

After being noisy for half the night, it finally became quiet.

Looking at a room full of injured people, Lin Changyi walked into the kitchen.

"Thank you!"

Gu Yunning followed Lin Changyi and carefully thanked him.

"You're welcome. I'll boil the water. You can take your brothers out first."

Neither of the children woke up due to such a big commotion. I smelled sleeping pills on them.

Damn Mrs. Gu Liu, it was too easy for her to send her to the government.

"I'll help you."

Gu Yunning left and came back.

Lin Changyi didn't say anything and let him boil the water. Firstly, I am a little tired, and secondly, I am thinking about what to do next?
  I lived twenty-five years in my previous life, and spent fifteen years running around. I had no time to calm down and live a good life.

The firelight shone on Gu Yun Ning's face, making bruises and purples intersect. The eight-year-old child realized the suffering of the world prematurely.

Li Qiaoxiu came to the kitchen slowly, "Da Ya, thanks to you today."

As he spoke, his voice was choked with tears and tears flowed down his face.

"Grandma!" Gu Yunning's eyes turned red.

Lin Changyi couldn't bear to see such a scene. He stood up and said, "The water is boiled and washed. There is medicine on the table. I'll go see Erlang."

Remember there is a living dead person at home who needs to be taken care of.

Lin Changyi entered the house and threw out Gu Erlang's clothes and quilt. He also took out two new quilts from the dowry and covered him with them.

"You have good willpower. You are still alive after pus is like this. You are really lucky."

After scrubbing his body carefully, Lin Changyi was so tired that he didn't want to move anymore.

Actually, I'm hungry.

I haven't even had a drink of water so far this morning.
