"Let's go, call the men and let's go over there too." Qian Dajuan's face changed.

"Are you crazy?" Aunt Ma clicked her tongue. "I won't stop you if you want to die, but don't involve us."

There were people present who, like Aunt Ma Er, seemed to be indifferent to the matter, but there were still some who agreed with Qian Dajuan's proposal.

"We have to find them and ask them to go with us. Changqing is the village chief. It is unreasonable for him to be bullied for no reason." Aunt Ma glared at her sister-in-law. It was really unlucky for her to have such a sister-in-law.

For example, not everyone present wanted to stand out. There were definitely some people who shared the same idea as her, but they didn't speak up. She was like a jumping grasshopper, and she was becoming more and more obvious day by day.

If they guessed wrong, and those people were not here to find the village chief, or to cause trouble for the village chief, then what good would come of her such a mean behavior? Qing could only wait to be bullied.

Aunt Ma glanced at the aunts and sisters who were gossiping around her, then glared at Aunt Ma. Just wait and see, if the village chief's family is really fine, the sarcastic words she said today will definitely reach the ears of the village chief's family.

She really wanted to draw a line between them and her, but the old man in the family insisted on advocating that an elder brother is like a father and protected Ma Laoer's family without even looking at what kind of people they were.

Aunt Ma Er naturally saw Aunt Ma glaring at her, but she would not be herself if she listened to the advice.

“Don’t look at me, sister-in-law. If you want to take them to seek death, go ahead. We definitely won’t go there.” Second Aunt Ma and First Aunt Ma didn’t get along well to begin with, and now she couldn’t help but make sarcastic remarks. “But don’t worry, sister-in-law. If anything really happens, we are all one family and will help you collect the bodies…”

Before Second Aunt Ma could finish her words, First Aunt Ma rushed over and said, "Fuck! You filthy, rotten-hearted bitch, I told you to curse us!"

Aunt Ma rushed forward and slapped Aunt Ma Er in the face. Before she could react, she pushed Aunt Ma Er to the ground, sat on her, and beat and pinched her.

Damn it, she has disliked her for a long time, but she still insisted on provoking me. Today, I will let her see how many eyes the Horse King has!

“Ah!” Aunt Ma wanted to dodge, but someone sat on her chest so hard that she had no chance to fight back.

“Help! Help!” Aunt Ma opened her mouth and howled at first, “Someone come quickly! You are all dead, come and pull her away!”

The people around her didn't want to pay attention to her. They felt that it was not the fault of Ma Lao Da's wife. If Ma Er's wife hadn't had such a foul mouth, she wouldn't have been beaten.

Even those who originally wanted to step forward to help turned pale when they heard her say that they were all dead. Whoever wants to start a fight can do so; they didn't care anyway.

Aunt Ma became more and more excited as she beat him, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances and frustrations she had endured from her over the years in one go.

The intense pain on her body and face made Aunt Ma Er scared. She watched in horror as she waved her fist at her again and again. Every time a fist landed, there would be another wound on her body.

"Jiu Ming, I am frustrated, I will have another night of fun."

Aunt Ma was satisfied when she saw Aunt Ma’s face, which was as swollen as a big dough bun.

The air that had been held in her chest dissipated, and she also felt soreness in her hands and feet. The soreness in her hands was due to the use of the Da Ma Second Aunt just now, and the soreness in her legs and feet was due to the restraint that caused her.

Aunt Ma looked at Aunt Ma's swollen, purple face and shivering eyes, and she felt more comfortable and relieved than ever before. It was so nice!

They have been sisters-in-law for many years, but they have not gotten along for many years and have fought a lot. But this was the most comfortable fight she had ever had in all these years.

In the past, whenever the two of them had a fight at home, that old man in her family would always stop them, saying that she was the eldest sister-in-law and had to give in to her younger siblings.

Although I have never heard of it, I have to say that because of that damn guy, their fights are often stopped just as they start or before they even start.

This also caused her to feel a lump in her heart all these years. Well, today she finally let it out.

The people around were relieved to see her stop. The wife of Ma Lao Da was really ruthless in a fight. They saw that Second Aunt Ma's voice was getting weaker and weaker. If she didn't stop, they should step forward and pull them apart.

Although they hated Aunt Ma Er, they couldn't bear to watch her being beaten to death.

Aunt Ma got up from Aunt Ma Er, reached out to tug at her clothes, smoothed her hair, and shook her head as if she had forgotten that Aunt Ma Er was still lying on the ground.

"Okay, let's listen to Dajuan and call the masters of each family and go take a look together." Aunt Ma said.

"That's right. There are so many of us, how can we be afraid of them?"

After Aunt Ma finished speaking, the people around her responded and then trotted back home to look after their husbands.

Soon the villagers gathered together, led by the village elders. They were all quite old, with almost all of them having gray hair. They walked at the front of the crowd with crutches.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. As long as all of us in the village work together, there is nothing to be afraid of."

The elders spoke out to comfort the uneasy villagers.

"No matter why those people come, we just need to solve the problem. They won't come just to kill us."

"Yes, if it is true as you said, that they came for Changqing's family, then there is no problem at all. We all know who Changqing is.

They are an honest family. Changqing, Changqing's wife and their eldest son have always lived in the village. How could we not know that they are still the same people?

The clerk's child is still young and has been studying in a private school, so it is impossible for him to cause any big trouble.

Maybe it's okay, let's not scare ourselves."

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the alley where Li Changqing lived. As soon as they entered the alley, they saw the carriage parked in front of Li Changqing's house, and the fourteen burly men.

The elder who had just been comforting the villagers narrowed his eyes when he looked at the strong men over there. This elder was called Li Baogen. He had been a soldier when he was young. He was lucky on the battlefield and had not suffered any serious injuries. When he was old enough, he retired and returned to his hometown.

Others only saw that the group of people looked ferocious, but Li Baogen saw something else from their tall stature and neat formation: they looked more like soldiers than thugs.

Li Baogen frowned, but why would a soldier come here to look for Changqing?

The carriage and the people were parked in front of Li Changqing's house. Who else could they be looking for except him?

Li Fulai asked in a low voice, "Elders, what should we do next?"

Whether to retreat or not, just give them a signal. The other person's fist is almost bigger than their head. Why are they still staying here? Aren't they just delivering food to others?

"They don't look like they're easy to mess with."

"That's right, why don't we just forget it? Even if we charge forward, we won't be able to defeat them."

"Yeah, you see they're all standing outside the door, maybe there's no danger, why don't we go?"

As for the thing called backing out, people with low mental ability will follow suit as soon as they hear it. They will subconsciously take what they want to hear into their hearts in order to convince themselves and alleviate their guilt.

"Stop talking!" Li Baogen tapped the ground twice with his cane. "Wait here. I'll go over and take a look."

"Master Baogen, why don't you just not go? You're already old, so you shouldn't rush to get into trouble."

Li Baogen did not listen to them and walked towards the "ferocious" team with his crutches.

Li Baogen and his men had gathered a large group of people, and they were a big target, so as soon as they entered the alley, they were discovered by the soldiers waiting outside. Seeing that they did not move, the soldiers pretended not to see them.

Deng·The Evil One·Soldier: "Hey, look, here comes an old man."

"What do we have to do to report inside?" Tian Qiangsong, the fierce and evil man, said.

"Wait and see, the old man is coming over, let's see what he says," said Deng Erbing.

As he was speaking, Li Baogen came over, trembling with a cane.

"Hello, warriors. I am the elder of Lijia Village. I wonder why you are here?" Li Baogen said as he glanced at Li Changqing's yard. "Are you here to look for Changqing? He is the head of our village and he is a kind and honest person. I wonder if he has offended you in some way. If so, I apologize to you on his behalf."

After saying this, Li Baogen was about to bow to Deng Erbing and the others.

Tian Qiangsong quickly supported him with his hands, "Old man, you don't have to be like this, we are not here to seek revenge, we are here to find our relatives."

"Looking for relatives?" Li Baogen never expected to hear this answer.

The villagers hiding at the entrance of the alley carefully looked at Li Baogen who was talking to those burly men, fearing that those men would suddenly attack and that Baogen, at his old age, would not be able to withstand it.

No one, including the villagers who were peeking carefully at the door, or Li Baogen who was talking to the guard at the door, expected that the door of Li Changqing's house would suddenly open.

The door opened, Shi Hanshuo escorted Li Xi out, and Li Changqing and his wife also followed to see them off.

The villagers at the entrance of the alley were afraid of making noises that would attract attention, so they spoke in low, breathy voices. Li Baogen also didn't speak loudly, so no one in the yard heard the noise outside.

It was not until Li Xi came out that she realized there were so many people outside.

When the others saw Li Xi coming out, their eyes widened. What happened, Daya? !

"Daya?!" Li Baogen looked at Li Xi in surprise. How could it be her?

"Daya, why are you here?" Li Baogen glanced at the tall man who had been following Li Xi. He could see a lot from him, and he was sure that this man must be a soldier.

After reaching this conclusion, Li Baogen breathed a sigh of relief. Other places might have the saying that soldiers passed by like combs, but it was not the case in their northern land. This was all because of the strict military discipline of the Zhenbei Army. He had served in the Zhenbei Army in the past, so he knew best what kind of army the Zhenbei Army was.

Li Xi also recognized Li Baogen and said with a smile, "Grandpa, I have something to discuss with Uncle Changqing. They are here to protect my safety."

Li Baogen understood every word Li Xi said, but when they put them together, he always felt something was wrong.

You just want to discuss things with Li Changqing, why are there so many soldiers around you to protect her safety?

Li Xi was just a young girl who had just moved out of the village. How could she be involved with them? Li Baogen had a lot of questions to ask, but Li Changqing, who came out after Li Xi, shook his head slightly at him.

Although he didn't know why, Li Baogen still kept his mouth shut and didn't ask any more questions. He just stood aside and watched her.

The people at the entrance of the alley also recognized Li Xi.

"Why is Daya there?"

"Yes, we have been staying at the entrance of the village today, and we didn't see her come in."

"If she didn't come in, how did she get in? Could she have jumped out from between the rocks?"

"Well, do you think it is possible that Li Xi came with them?" He Wuquan said with a sneer.

After hearing what he said, the people around him suddenly understood that it was really possible.

This conjecture was verified when Shi Hanshuo walked out of the yard and stood respectfully behind Li Xi.

After getting the guess, many people breathed a sigh of relief. The Changqing family had helped Li Xi and the others a lot before, and Li Xi didn't look like he was here to seek revenge, so that was good.

Li Xi had no intention of answering either Li Baogen's questions or the villagers' questions. It was already afternoon, and she had promised Hu Zi that she would go back today, so she couldn't go back on her word. She naturally didn't want to waste her time explaining something.

"Grandpa, I have things to do and I'm in a hurry to go back, so I'll leave first. If you have any questions, just ask Uncle Changqing directly." After Li Xi finished speaking, she waved to Uncle Changqing and Aunt Fengxia who came out to see her off.

"Uncle, aunt, and grandfather, I'll be leaving first. I'll come back and make arrangements when it's time to dig." After saying this, Li Xi got on the carriage.

Shi Hanshuo jumped on his horse, glanced at the group of people secretly watching from the entrance of the alley, and directly ordered his brothers to leave from the other end of the alley.

Li Xi was quite glad that she acted quickly, as she didn't want to face those people in the village.

She didn't stay in Lijiazhuang for a long time, and there weren't many people who gave her positive emotions. She was too lazy to talk to those people, and ineffective socializing was useless.

Li Xi didn't realize that she should actually thank Aunt Ma for completing her task so smoothly.

If it hadn't been for the fact that Aunt Ma and Aunt Ma had had a fight at the door at that time, which delayed time, and then finding someone would have delayed time again.

She might not be able to leave before the villagers realized what was happening.

Before they came over, Li Xi briefly told Li Changqing what had happened to her recently, of course she only spoke selectively.

Li Changqing's eyes widened after hearing this. He never thought that his niece had such a talent. Not only was she lucky enough to be an apprentice in a drug store before, but now she followed her master to Jiayuguan to work as a doctor for the General Zhenbei.

No matter how he listened, it seemed like he was talking in his sleep. He pinched his thigh quietly and felt the pain, only then did he realize that this was not a dream.

At that time, Li Changqing's eyes were shining when he looked at Li Xi. How could his niece be so capable!
