Yu Hongmei, a little woman from Hexi Village, has finally had her eyes opened today.

The personal servant of the son of the county magistrate, along with four or five constables, was hacked to death on her way back to the village.

Live it!

Who made him look down on others and not even give himself money?

He was looking for Xiaohu in the village early in the morning. When he met Du Kongqing, he took a ride to the county town without any money on him.

I didn’t catch up with Uncle Niu’s ox cart, didn’t get the reward, and couldn’t afford to hire a cart.

She walked so much that her legs almost broke before she reached Hexi Village.

Ever since Li Xiaohu disappeared, Yu Hongmei has been making a fuss at home day and night, complaining that Li Quan shouldn't have let Li Xiaohu walk back from the county town alone, which is why he disappeared.

Later, in order to get some quiet time, Li Quan went to work in Yizhou and did not come back for several months, leaving Yu Hongmei alone at home.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Yu Hongmei would hear Li Xiaohu calling her, saying that he was in pain and asked her to find him as soon as possible.

Yu Hongmei could hardly sleep well every night, with Li Xiaohu's screams constantly ringing in her ears.

When Yu Hongmei returned home and was about to heat up yesterday's leftovers, there was a knock on the door in the yard.

"Bang bang bang!"

He knocked three times and then stopped.

Yu Hongmei frowned. Li Quan didn’t say he would come back today!

When I opened the door, I saw that it was not Li Quan, but a rare guest!

Yu Hongmei didn't say anything, and the person opposite her spoke first.

"I heard that you took my carriage to the county town today?" Luo Xiaoran asked.

"Hehehe!" Yu Hongmei laughed in a sarcastic tone.

"Miss Luo is from a wealthy family. Could it be that you want to ask me for a few cents for the fare?"

"That's not the case. I just stumbled upon something today. After thinking about it, I decided to tell you."

Only then did Yu Hongmei realize that there was a box next to Luo Xiaoran, and she didn't know what was inside.

"What can you tell me?" Yu Hongmei actually put on airs.

Luo Xiaoran picked up the red box beside her and went into Hongmei's house before she could react.

"You are trespassing!" Yu Hongmei shouted from behind.

Luo Xiaoran gently placed the box on the ground, turned to look at Yu Hongmei with sharp eyes:

"This morning, you went to the county government office, and then An Ruquan's men broke into Du Kongqing's house. Isn't this a coincidence?"

"I do not know what you're talking about."

Yu Hongmei took a step back cautiously, refusing to admit what she had done.

"I don't mean to blame you. Besides, I'm not the one who should be held accountable." Luo Xiaoran said meaningfully.

Yu Hongmei narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Luo Xiaoran with some hostility.

Luo Xiaoran didn't care about her attitude, pointing at the red box she brought in and asked:

"Take a look, does it look familiar?"

"Never seen it." Yu Hongmei just glanced at it and showed no interest.

Luo Xiaoran continued to persuade him, "You saw it this morning, outside the county government office."

After Luo Xiaoran's reminder, Yu Hongmei remembered that she had indeed seen An Ruquan's servant and two other people carrying out a box that seemed to be of the same style as this box.

But she couldn't admit it. Once she admitted that she had gone to the county government office, wouldn't that be tantamount to admitting that she was the one who informed on the matter?

How could Luo Xiaoran not understand Yu Hongmei's little thoughts? She did not continue to ask, but continued:

“Perhaps you don’t know that An Ruquan not only likes to rob women, he also likes to kidnap children.

He kidnapped children just for his own amusement, so he treated them cruelly.

This morning, someone saw An Ruquan's men carrying this box to a mass grave and burying it. I dug the box out. Do you want to open it and take a look?"

From the moment Luo Xiaoran said "An Ruquan likes to kidnap children", Yu Hongmei's body began to tremble.

Maybe it’s because of the mother-child bond, but Yu Hongmei feels a stuffy pain in her chest every day.

Li Xiaohu could often be heard crying, saying that he was in great pain and asking Yu Hongmei to save him.

Seeing Yu Hongmei shaking like a sieve, Luo Xiaoran suddenly felt a little bit sorry.

But "the earlier you die, the earlier you will be reborn", after hesitating for a moment, Luo Xiaoran still opened the box.

"what!!!"

A shrill scream came from Yu Hongmei's house, shocking Du Kongqing who was outside the door.

After an unknown amount of time, Luo Xiaoran finally came out.

"Let's go. Go home quietly and pack your luggage. Don't let anyone see you. Then you and Aunt Ming can stay at my house."

"Yu Hongmei?" Du Kongqing asked with a frown.

"She said she was blinded by lard before and she's sorry for you.

He also said that you are handsome and shouldn’t wear a veil to cover your face every day.”

Du Kongqing suddenly felt a little sad, she vaguely sensed something.

……

Ever since Du Kongqing moved to Luo Xiaoran's house, Sun Qingyuan has become more of a "teacher" when teaching Luo Xingchen.

Du Kongqing, however, gradually returned to his normal self after the first few days of anxiety, and often quarreled with Sun Qingyuan.

Luo Xiaoran watched this pair of bickering lovers, but that was all she watched.

After all, she is not interested in the profession of matchmaker.

But Sun Qingyuan was acting contrary to his usual “teacher” style today, and he shouted as soon as he entered the door:

"Have you heard? An Ruquan went out for a stroll as soon as his leg injury healed.

As a result, he was stabbed to death just after leaving the county government office. This is truly a case of evil being rewarded with evil!"

Luo Xiaoran paused while practicing calligraphy, looked up and asked, "Who stabbed me?"

"It is said that it was a mad woman who stabbed An Ruquan's personal servant to death. Several thugs didn't pay attention to the mad woman, so some died and some were injured.

But this is very strange, why would An Ruquan let a crazy woman get close to him?"

"How is that crazy woman now?" Du Kongqing, who was listening nearby, was terrified and couldn't help asking.

"She killed the county magistrate's only son at the gate of the county government office, so naturally all the detectives in the government office came out to arrest her.

I don’t know how a woman like her could be so strong. She stabbed several constables in succession, and was eventually hacked to death by the remaining constables.”

Luo Xiaoran looked at the four characters "Peace and Joy" that she had just written on the paper. Her tone was calm, but if you listened carefully, you could hear a hint of deepness in it:

"An Ruquan has done so many evil things. It's possible that the family of the person he killed is here to seek revenge."

"What you said makes sense. For so many years, he relied on An Luhai's power to bully men and women, exploit the people, and do all kinds of evil. It's a good thing for him to die so easily!

Now that’s good, Kong Qing doesn’t have to hide here anymore and can move back home.

You don’t need to cover your face when you go out in the future. Just say that you are cured and the rash on your face has subsided.” Sun Qingyuan said.

"You're right. Life can finally return to peace, except..."

Luo Xiaoran looked outside the house and saw that Zhu Jingxing's men were still watching her.
