Mu Jinghua is certainly not afraid, but with Xu Shu here, it doesn’t matter whether he is afraid or not.

So he grabbed Xu Shu and said aggrievedly: "Xu Shu, it hurts so much."

Xu Shu's heart trembled, and he coaxed him softly: "It's okay, let's go down the mountain."

He glanced at Xiao Ran, and Xiao Ran immediately made way for him.

Xu Shu didn't bother with him for the time being and picked up Mu Jinghua and went home.

Seeing him walk away, Xiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly urged the guards beside him: "Quick, take the young master to find a doctor."

Xu Shu hurriedly took Mu Jinghua down the mountain, but he was surprised to see Xiao Wuyan, the little pudding, at the door.

"What are you doing here?" Xu Shu asked with a frown, then ignored him and pulled Mu Jinghua into the house, "Little Mu Jin, don't be afraid, eat this first."

Very serious penetrating injuries are likely to cause tetanus.

Xu Shu first took out some anti-inflammatory medicine for Mu Jinghua, and then took out some disinfectant from the ring to disinfect and bandage Mu Jinghua's wound. Fearing that he might hurt him, Xu Shu's movements were as gentle as possible.

Is it uncomfortable to have to look at Mu Jinghua all the time?

Mu Jinghua was very well behaved. He never said anything about feeling uncomfortable the whole time. He just looked at Xu Shu without blinking.

Only after Xu Shu finished bandaging him did he have the energy to ask him, "Xiao Mujin, tell me, what happened?"

Mu Jinghua's eyes turned red and he was about to speak when he heard a noisy noise coming from outside.

Xu Shu looked over and saw that it was Qi Huairen who came with the elders. He was puzzled for a moment: "What happened again?"

Qi Huairen frowned, a little anxious: "A group of people came to the village entrance, looking ferocious and asking us to hand over Xiao Mujin. Xu Shu, do you have any clues?"

"The entrance to the village?" Xu Shu immediately thought of Qiao Jianhong. "How are they dressed? Do they look like bandits or regular soldiers?"

"Dress like a bandit, talk like a regular soldier."

Thinking it was related to Qiao Jianhong, Xu Shu glanced at Mu Jinghua who was silent and said to Qi Huairen: "Go and see Xiao Mujin first, I'll go out and take a look."

Qi Huairen nodded in agreement, and Xu Shu looked at the villagers: "Everyone go back first, I will take care of this matter."

Shen Guang was a little worried: "Xu Shu, can you handle it? Don't just stand by yourself. I think they are really aggressive..."

Xu Shu hummed and comforted Shen Guang and the villagers: "I am sure, I appreciate your kindness, but please go back first."

Xu Shu spoke in a gentle voice, but someone said, "Why are we going back? The bandit at the entrance of the village said directly that he would kill us all if we don't hand over Mu Jinghua."

"What should we do if you sneak away with Mu Jinghua?"

Xu Shu looked at the person who spoke. It was an old lady with a very unfamiliar face. He did not recognize her.

However, it is natural that there will be people who object. Xu Shu raised his eyebrows and said nothing more: "If you don't want to leave, just stay."

"What's your attitude?" The old lady was dissatisfied. "If it weren't for you and Mu Jinghua, would our village have encountered such a thing? Now those bandits have named Mu Jinghua and made it clear that they will burn down our entire village if we don't hand him over. We are innocent. We are already doing you a favor by not coming to Mu Jinghua to settle the score immediately."

"What are you talking about?" Shen Guang looked at the person who was speaking with dissatisfaction. "Auntie Bai, I know that Xu Shu rejected your daughter's marriage proposal, which made you very unhappy, but in this kind of situation, we should unite. You are really petty when you say this."

"I am petty?" The lady who spoke was the family that asked a matchmaker to propose marriage to Xu Shu during the time when Yichunlou came to cause trouble.

The lady's surname was Bai, and she was also an outsider. But because the daughters of the Bai family were beautiful, their status in the village was not low.

She was also a person with good vision. When she first saw Xu Shu, she knew that this man was extraordinary and would definitely achieve great things, so she saved money and paid fifty cents to the matchmaker, just to find a good family for her daughter.

Who would have known that when the matchmaker went to propose marriage, not only was she completely ignored by Xu Shu, but she was also snatched away by the rich second-generation Wu Yong.

Wu Yong paid generously and gave the matchmaker one or two taels of silver before the deal was done. The matchmaker was not interested in fifty cents, and she also saw that Xu Shu and Mu Ge'er were not ordinary people, so she immediately canceled the business with Aunt Bai.

But Aunt Bai was still angry.

Her daughter is pretty, and her family has been in the village for many years. Although they are not rich, they are still a respectable family in the village.

It doesn't matter if Xu Shu is not satisfied with this marriage. It doesn't matter if he has someone he likes. Now that it has been made clear, they naturally won't cry and beg.

But asking the matchmaker to cancel their business directly made Aunt Bai feel like she was slapped in the face, feeling wronged and depressed.

And since Mu Jinghua and Xu Shu are interested in each other, why don’t they get married quickly?

It has been dragging on for two years, and there is still no news of any intention of getting married. This makes Aunt Bai more and more suspicious whether the initial refusal was fake.

But Xu Shu had a good reputation in the village, and later there was news that he would help build a school in the village. Naturally, Aunt Bai couldn't speak ill of Xu Shu in public.

Now that she had the chance, she didn't want to give Xu Shu any face.

"You are all so generous, why don't you fight with those people outside with hoes? It's already late, why are you still emphasizing these neighborly sentiments? This Xu Shu just built a school for the village, and we don't know if you guys will survive or not."

Aunt Bai thought she had said all the harsh words, but Xu Shu just glanced at her lightly, and realizing that he had no impression of her, he bowed to Shen Guang and turned around to leave.

Seeing his attitude, Aunt Bai became even more angry. She immediately grabbed Xu Shu's sleeve and said in a sharper voice, "Why are you leaving? Tell me clearly, what is your attitude? Is this how you treat your elders?"

elder?

Since it is a matter of life and death, who cares whether you are an elder or not?

Xu Shu sneered in his heart, but he did not hit the woman, he just pushed away Aunt Bai's hand.

Mrs. Bai fell to the ground and wailed, "Look, everyone, this young and strong man treats me, a woman over 50 years old, like this. Will there be any law and order in Shiqiao Village from now on?"

Xu Shu was a little speechless.

Could this fraudulent technique be any more crude?

But the people of Shiqiao Village had obviously never seen such a scene. Some simple villagers or those who were on good terms with Aunt Bai blushed and began to complain to Xu Shu: "You are a junior, how can you treat an old lady like this?"

"That's right. You act like a decent human being on weekdays. Are you just pretending?" Some men have been unhappy with Xu Shu for a long time.

After all, Xu Shu is handsome and has a good temperament. There are many girls and boys in the village who like him. The matter between Xu Shu and Mu Jinghua has not been settled yet, and no one dares to make a guarantee. Naturally, the men are resentful.

Xu Shu didn't want to waste time talking to them, but the situation was clearly out of control, so he could only patiently explain to these guys.
