This time, she didn't come back until she got off work at night.

Landa and his father had no choice but to go to the farm to wait for her, but the people guarding outside the door saw them and tried to drive them away.

The Lan Da father and son were pushed and staggered, but they didn't dare to get angry. They still licked their faces and smiled at the gatekeeper, saying flatteringly:

"Brother, how could this person not be here? My wife came here this morning."

The gatekeeper was very impatient.

"If I say this person doesn't exist, then he doesn't exist. Get out of here right now. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you up."

Seeing their attitude, Lan Da and the other man didn't dare to continue talking, but they didn't want to leave either. They stood at the door and looked at the gate, hoping that the gate would open immediately and Zhang would come out right away.

The gatekeeper knew whether Zhang would come out again. There was such a big commotion this afternoon that the master was very angry. When the woman was carried out, she was naked and there was not a single piece of good flesh on her body.

They saw with their own eyes their brothers throwing the woman, who was dead beyond death, into the back hill.

So, even if these two guys come to ask for people now, there is no way they can get them.

But Landa and his father had no idea and they waited outside and refused to leave no matter what.

The gatekeeper was already feeling a little guilty about this incident, and when he saw that the two men were reluctant to leave, he lost his patience, called a few people over, and rushed forward to start punching and kicking the two men.

Honest farmers and elderly men were no match for these individuals.

They were beaten and curled up on the ground, both protecting their heads with their hands.

The pain in his body made Landa unusually sober at this moment. Something must have happened to his wife!

No, he had to save Zhang and couldn't let them keep her in there like this.

Perhaps because he wanted to save people so strongly, Lan Da suddenly felt very strong. He stood up and pushed away the people who were still beating Old Man Lan.

"Dad, run, go find someone."

The force that had been beating on his body suddenly disappeared. When he heard what his son said, he reacted quickly and staggered to his feet and ran away.

"Still trying to run, catch him."

Seeing someone trying to catch his father, Lan ran up with red eyes and hugged the waist of the person in front.

"Stop, stop."

He was alone, but there were many bad guys. He stopped this one, but the others chased after him.

Landa immediately let go and tried to chase after those people, but the man he had just stopped grabbed the back of his collar and pulled him back hard, causing him to fall to the ground.

Then two screams sounded again, slowly becoming weaker and weaker, until finally disappearing.

"Dead, dead, go and tell the master."

These people were extremely panicked. They had killed someone without permission and they didn't know whether the master would be angry and punish them.

The person who went to invite the master brought him here in a short while.

Landlord Xue looked at the two lifeless people lying on the ground and curled the corners of his mouth.

"These two insignificant people are dead, so let them die. Today, I will be kind and send the woman who didn't know how to live or die this afternoon back to her home. I will say that she had a conflict with others and people on both sides died."

"Yes."

These people immediately divided themselves into teams, went to the back mountain to carry back Zhang's body, and walked to the Lan family in groups of four.

The corpse of this lowly person could not be carried on their farm's ox cart, lest it dirty their cart.

At this moment, Grandma Lan was holding Lan Ning and coaxing her to sleep. Although her hand was patting little Lan Ning gently, her eyes kept looking out the door.

It’s so late and the old man hasn’t come back yet. What happened?

Grandma Lan had been coaxing her for a long time, but Lan Ning couldn't sleep at this moment. Listening to her grandmother's anxious voice and that uneasy feeling, she felt that something might have happened.

But she couldn't speak, so she could only twist her body to remind her grandmother.

Grandma Lan didn't understand her reminder at all. She just thought that she was fussing about sleeping, so she could only hold her and comfort her all the time.

It was not until the door was banged that Grandma Lan put Lan Ning on the bed.

I ran out of the door and saw the door shaking continuously due to the slapping, which made me even more panicked.

"I'm coming."

As soon as the bolt was removed, the door was kicked open by someone outside, and Grandma Lan behind the door fell to the ground due to the sudden force of the door.

Grandma Lan looked at the dozen or so people outside the door in horror.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

It was too dark and I couldn't see the expressions of the people outside the door. I only heard one of them sneer.

"With your shabby house and a stinking old woman who is about to be buried, what can we do? Our master is kind enough to send someone to you."

Then three people were thrown in.

Mission accomplished, looking at this shabby and shabby place, these people didn't even want to stay here for a moment longer and just turned around and left.

After walking a few steps, they seemed to remember something.

"Oh, by the way, these three people had a conflict with other temporary workers, and finally a fight broke out. In the end, neither side got any good results. We brothers were kind enough to carry the people back for you, so we should give them something in return."

At this moment, Grandma Lan could no longer hear what these people were saying, so she hurriedly groped her way towards the three people on the ground.

"Old man, son, Xiaoqing, wake up, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that the old woman dared to ignore them, the man who was speaking got angry.

He strode forward, grabbed Grandma Lan's hair and pulled it back hard.

"Damn it, you old fool, you didn't hear me talking to you, right? Hurry up and take out the valuables from your house and give them to us brothers as a gift."

The sudden pain made Grandma Lan speechless and she didn't have the strength to shout out.

Seeing her like this, these people didn't bother to talk nonsense with her and just walked straight towards their house.

Her hair was loosened, and Grandma Lan rushed forward and grabbed the feet of the person in front of her.

"What are you going to do?"

No, no, it looks like these people are robbers. If we let them go in and search, there will be nothing left in their house.

But as an old woman, she was no match for these strong men. One of the men came back and kicked her leg. With a "click", Grandma Lan let go of her hand on her own.

"Legs. My legs."

The calf was in a strange posture, and it was obvious that the leg was broken.

Grandma Lan curled up on the ground in pain and could only watch these people enter their house. Suddenly, she stood up despite the pain and stumbled towards a house.

He picked up the crying, frightened little Lan Ning who was lying on the bed and curled up in the corner.

Seeing that she was now obedient, these people ignored her and started searching the house at will.

A quarter of an hour later, these people finally left.

This time they did not leave empty-handed, as they found five taels of silver and a silver hairpin in this dilapidated house.

"Come on, brothers, this money is enough for us to have several meals and drinks."
