The delicate and soft educated youth is too tempting, and she is so spoiled by the rough man that sh

Xiao Chenxing and Hongguo didn't say anything, but silently took their weapons. Xiao Chenye looked at Wen Ran's back, also worried, and gritted his teeth, "Then let's go!"

With the whole family joining the melee, and the negative buff brought by the mushrooms, the bandits were easily dealt with.

Everyone was determined not to take it lightly and searched each person's body one by one. Wen Ran also got some mushroom powder, mixed it well and fed each of them half a bowl.

"Alright," Wen Ran wiped the sweat from his forehead, "There's no problem now, just tie him up."

Hongguo stirred the mutton soup, "Sister! The mutton is stewed until tender."

"have to!"

The aroma of the mutton soup was so tempting that Wen Ran's stomach started to growl after this interruption.

"Eat first," Xiao's mother panted, "Only when you're full and have enough water will you have the strength to deal with them."

"to make!"

The soup made from fresh lamb was so delicious, the meat was stewed till it was mushy, and everyone gobbled up half of the pot.

The remaining food is not wasted. Take it out and let it cool down, then take it with you when you leave.

"What should we do with these people?"

Xiao's mother was in a dilemma. "If I leave him alone, he'll do evil again when he wakes up. If I kill him..."

From the bottom of her heart, Xiao's mother didn't want to do this. She thought that the Xiao family was a good and honest family, and it was not appropriate for them to get involved in such fighting and killing.

“Take them away. No matter how many evil things they have done, we cannot handle them. We have to go find Third Brother anyway.

When the time comes, I'll hand it over to the Third Brother, and it'll be up to them to decide how to handle it."

Xiao Chenye, who had always been taciturn, said succinctly, "I just looked around and there are three flatbed carts here that can accommodate everyone."

Wen Ran agreed, but was still eager to try, "Take these cattle and sheep with you! And the horses too."

"bring."

No white no belt.

It's a reward for bravery. Of course, if it needs to be handed over to the military district...

Then just hand it over!

Anyway, I caught a lamb to eat, so it wasn't too bad.

Xiao's mother was also holding back her anger. Upon hearing this, she almost emptied the small felt bag, especially the two iron pots. Those were all good things. She would give them to her daughter or take them back home.

Scarce resources.

"Are you OK?"

Xiao Chenye and Wen Ran were outside getting a horse and a cart. Seeing Wen Ran so full of energy, he was a little worried, "How did you do it?"

He was speechless, "That guy yelling for his mother..."

"Poisonous mushrooms. If you eat them, you'll have hallucinations."

Wen Ran smiled and said, "It's just like the last time I tried to fool the wolf, but failed."

This finally put her mind at ease.

"Didn't you eat too?" Xiao Chenye became nervous. "Are you dizzy? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

"Ah? Me?" Wen Ran blinked, wanting to say that he didn't eat, but...

"It's okay," she soothed him, "I only ate a few bites, and I can take a nap on the way back."

Everything was ready to go, and then the group encountered new problems.

As everyone looked at each other, Xiao's mother asked in confusion, "Where are we going?"

Good question, don’t ask it next time.

The grassland was vast and sparsely populated, so it was impossible to ask for directions. Mother Xiao was so anxious that she kept twisting Father Xiao's ear. "It's all your fault. I told you to go according to the time, but you refused to do so. You were like a fly, buzzing around.

I was clamoring to come early, but now there's no one to pick me up, and I can't find my way back."

Father Xiao cried out, "It hurts, it hurts, daughter-in-law, please save some face, the children are watching!"

"You care about face, but why don't you care about your brain?! If you hadn't been so nagging and changing the time at the last minute, we would have arrived three days earlier and wouldn't have encountered all this crap!"

"I saw you were fidgeting. Okay, okay, I was wrong. Even if you twist your ears off now, there's nothing you can do."

The younger generation looked up and down, but they didn't look at the flirting old couple.

Xiao Chenye's lips curled up a little, "What should we do now?"

Wen Ran touched his chin and asked, "Where is the old man driving the cart?"

"It's tied up in the carriage."

"Wake him up and lead the way."

Xiao Chenye's eyes lit up, "You're the one who thinks this is so quick. Wait, I'll get him out right away."

There were few carriages but many people, and they were all squeezed together. It took a lot of effort to get the old man out of the crowd.

He ate little of the roe deer stewed with vermicelli, so he woke up after drinking a bowl of water.

He opened his eyes and stared blankly. Seeing this, Wen Ran calmly reached his finger into the bowl, secretly drew some space spring water, and asked Xiao Chenye to drink it for him.

He added quite naturally, "Ahem, give him a drink to wake him up."

"it is good."

In two minutes, the old man woke up.

The more cocky she was before, the more she cries now.

"Okay, stop howling like a ghost. Lead the way and send us to the place where we can talk to you."

The old man hesitated, "Is it possible?"

Wen Ran silently took out a dagger and said succinctly, "Whether it works or not, whether I live or die, depends on your decision."

“…I’ll lead the way.”

After staggering along the way, it was already dark when they arrived at the place where Xiao Chenyue was staying.

Looking at the little girl who was lying on the bed with her neck stretched out and screaming, Xiao Chenyue's eyes were full of tenderness. "By the way, Chen Guang, if you don't have time tomorrow, I'll go to the train station to pick up Mom and Dad."

"No need," Xiao Chenguang said, eating his meal, "I'll go."

"Aren't you busy lately?"

"It's not safe for you to go, especially with a child," Xiao Chenguang frowned and explained, "Don't run around lately. There are vagrants on the grasslands committing crimes, and for the time being, there's no clue to catch them."

"Ah?" Xiao Chenyue was nervous, "Then my parents..."

"It's okay, I'm here, don't be afraid."

Before the brother and sister could come to an agreement, a neighbor came over, walked straight in, knocked on the door, grinned, and said happily, "No, you two are still eating?

Your family members are here, so many of them."

Xiao Chenyue: “?”

Xiao Chenguang: “?”

The two were at a loss. Six people couldn't be considered a lot.

Xiao Chenguang took the coat, and Xiao Chenyue hurriedly put the clothes on the child, and asked casually, "How many people are there?"

"Twenty or thirty people!"

Twenty or thirty people? !

The brother and sister were both shocked.

Not to the point.

Even if there are four people in the family, plus Xiao Wen, the educated youth, and Hong Guo, there are only six people in total.

Not right.

Xiao Chenguang held the child in his arms, and Xiao Chenyue rushed to the front. When she saw Xiao's parents standing at the entrance of the village, Xiao Chenyue burst into tears.

Tears fell like beads from a broken string. I opened my mouth, but before I could even shout out my parents, I choked up, "Mom~"

Xiao's mother looked at her daughter, so excited that she couldn't speak.

Okay, okay, I didn’t get wronged, my face has become fatter.

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly, except Xiao Chenguang, who stared intently at the people who were still missing from the carriage, as well as the ten horses, five sheep and two cows following behind.

Xiao Chenguang: "..."

He looked at his brother, "What did you do?"

"I met someone with bad intentions on the road," Xiao Chenye said calmly, "and I raided their lair and even brought them back to you."
