Farming and reading family
Chapter 47 Chen Ke's Hesitation
"No need!" Guo Pei and Ma Ben said at the same time.
Ma Ben had already pulled the cart onto the road, looking at Chen Qing and Chen Jie with hostility.
Guo Pei felt nervous: "The carriage is already here. I'll treat you to a drink later."
As they were talking, Chen Qing and Chen Jie also moved their carriages to the side, and the two carriages were staggered.
Chen Qing stared at the carriage that was quickly leaving.
"What's wrong?" Chen Jie was puzzled.
"I always feel that..." Chen Qing felt something was wrong.
"Let's go back quickly. These two pigs haven't been sold yet, and we have to find a way to deal with them." Chen Jie felt a pang of pain just thinking about it.
The two men were about to drive when Guo Gaoying came running over.
"Why are you running so fast?" Chen Jie laughed.
Guo Gaoying saw that it was Chen Jie and said, "That carriage has taken the champion away."
"What?" Chen Jie was stunned.
Chen Qing immediately unloaded the carriage, turned around, spurred his horse and chased after him.
Now he knew what that uneasiness was about. Guo Pei was really capable of doing anything bad.
"Brother, wait for me." Chen Jie chased after him.
The people from Baotou Village also caught up and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Chen Qing riding his horse to chase him.
Ma Ben turned his head and saw Chen Qing riding his horse to chase him. He then looked at Guo Pei and Chen Duokui in the carriage and thought that he could not escape today.
Thinking of this, he took out a fish knife and cut the rope that drove the carriage. He jumped onto the carriage by pulling the reins, and the carriage behind him overturned to the ground.
Chen Qing was blocked by the overturned carriage, and seeing that there was only one person on the escaping horse, he dismounted to check.
Guo Pei climbed out of the carriage in a panic, with his forehead bleeding.
Chen Qing kicked him away and bent down to see Chen Duokui who had fainted in the carriage.
He carried Chen Duokui out and tried to see if he was still breathing, then he breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and glared at Guo Pei.
Guo Pei shuddered at Chen Qing's look. "Brother Chen, let me explain. Ma Ben said it was your Chen family who sold the title to them."
Chen Qing frowned slightly, but did not believe what Guo Pei said. After all, Guo Pei was not credible at all and could make up any lies.
"Really." Guo Pei knew he couldn't escape today. "Otherwise, how could I dare to do this?"
Chen Qing ignored him and untied the rope on the shaft of the cart and tied Guo Pei tightly.
After he finished doing all this, Chen Jie and Guo Gaoying also caught up.
"Why is he the only one here? Where is that person?" Chen Jie was angry.
"He ran away on horseback." Chen Qing picked up Chen Duokui.
Chen Jie kicked Guo Pei in the heart: "What a piece of shit."
Guo Pei almost vomited blood when he saw Guo Gaoying was also there: "Gao Ying, is your father here? I can't just watch those two brothers beat me to death. I was also deceived."
Guo Gaoying didn't want to pay attention to him. Although they both had the surname Gao and the same grandfather, Guo Dafu's family and Guo Pei had no contact with each other for a long time.
Chen Jie was about to hit Guo Pei again but was stopped by Chen Qing.
"Send him to the authorities." Chen Qing said directly.
Guo Pei panicked: "Brother Chen, I really have been deceived. You can say whatever you want, but please don't hand me over to the authorities. Otherwise, I will have no way to survive."
Selling children is a serious crime in Dachang, and even if you are not the main culprit, you will be exiled thousands of miles away.
"Hmph!" Chen Jie ignored him.
After a while, the young men from Baotou Village caught up first, followed by the village head and his group. When they saw Guo Pei tied up tightly, they all knew what had happened.
Lei also ran over with the crowd. She was relieved to see that he had won the championship.
Judging from the reaction of the second sister-in-law just now, if Duokui was really kidnapped, the second sister-in-law would probably be dead.
"Uncle Zheng, save me! Uncle Zheng, save me!" Guo Peixian cried out. "My wife, Gao, sold her son. She took the money and ran away. I'm just helping to lead the way."
Everyone was shocked, and although they didn't quite believe Guo Pei, they were still talking about it.
"Bullshit! My second sister-in-law would never do such a thing. My eldest daughter's injury was paid for by my second sister-in-law. How could she sell her own son?" Lei scolded. "Just now, my second sister-in-law heard that Duokui was in trouble and almost fainted."
Everyone believed what Lei said without a doubt. You have to know that Lei and Gao had never gotten along before, and he was outspoken and disdained to lie.
What Guo Pei did was really inhumane.
"Okay, if you, the Chen family, really send me to the government, I will say that Mr. Chen sold his son, and then he won't be able to keep his title as a scholar." Guo Pei threatened directly when he saw that no one believed him.
When Zheng Fengan heard Guo Pei say this, he looked at Chen Qing.
Chen Qing is the eldest son of the Chen family, and he has the most say at the moment.
"When we go to the government, we need evidence." Chen Qing said calmly, "It's not like a human trafficker can just say whatever he wants."
Guo Pei's face turned pale. Ma Ben said so, and he chose to believe it. After all, he could earn two taels of silver just by staring at someone.
He had been keeping an eye on the Chen family for a long time and knew that Chen Duokui had been catching crickets downstairs for the past few days, so he called Ma Ben over, but he was discovered.
Chen Qing turned to look at the village head and said, "Guo Pei is trafficking children, which is a violation of the law. Please send him to the government and let them handle the matter."
Zheng Fengan hesitated for a moment: "Don't you need to tell your second brother? Let your second brother make the decision?"
Chen Qing lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and decided that it would be best for his second brother to make the decision on this matter.
"Then I'll ride back and ask." Chen Jie said as he led the horse over.
Everyone thought this was feasible and watched Chen Jie ride away.
Guo Pei said that they had knocked Chen Duokui unconscious and he woke up after a while. Only then did Chen Qing give up the idea of sending Chen Duokui to the clinic.
When Gao E was waiting for news at home, Chen Ke came back. She told Chen Ke about this matter, and Chen Ke immediately went out to chase her.
Chen Ke wondered if his son could escape the fate of being sold?
At that moment, his heart was filled with despair, as if his desperate life was being repeated all over again.
He didn't get out of this despair until Chen Jie's horse stopped beside him.
"Second brother!" Chen Jie screamed when he saw his second brother looking like a zombie.
Chen Ke woke up with a start and looked at Chen Jie in confusion.
"Guo Pei from our village colluded with outsiders and almost kidnapped Duokui. He also framed my second sister-in-law, saying that she sold Duokui." Chen Jie said quickly.
Chen Ke's heart skipped a beat. When he hurried back, Gao E was in the city with Duokui. He didn't ask what happened that day.
He thought that Gao's selling of Duokui was a later event, and as long as he was around, she would not be able to sell him out without making a sound.
And Gao E is indeed very different now than before.
Let him think that Gao no longer has this intention. Is it all fake?
"My eldest brother means to send it directly to the government office and let the county magistrate decide how to judge it." Chen Jie did not notice anything unusual about his second brother.
Chen Ke's eyes flickered. "Did Guo Peizhen say that it was your second sister-in-law who sold the title?"
Chen Ke was not sure whether Gao E really did such a thing. What if they had evidence?
