An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

The young dandy's hands were numb from clapping at the door of the post station. It was Heizi's turn, and he clattered for a long time, but the door still wouldn't open. He got angry, and perhaps felt that he had lost face, so he simply drew his sword and chopped off the iron chain lock on the wooden door in just a few strokes.

The people outside, seeing that the door wasn't open, were even more convinced that a pack of wolves would come after them tonight. Regardless of how the door was opened, they threw the chain and lock aside without hesitation, dragging their tents, rolled up blankets, and moved their belongings inside. No one dared to slack off for even a moment, fearing that if they were a little late, the wolves would really come after them.

Jing Chunxi saw the little dandy banging on the door for a long time and knew that the officials could no longer be relied upon. An idea suddenly occurred to him: "Grandmother, don't bother anyone else. Go in and occupy the kitchen directly. Then, guard the door tightly and don't let anyone in. Then move the firewood inside out, and put the tinderbox in your pocket for later use. Light a fire under each wall."

"What about you?"

The old lady listened to her clear arrangements, and then looked at her husband and Sister Xi, and she was very nervous, even more nervous than the last time the post station caught fire. She could still avoid the fire, but how could she avoid the wolves? The thought of it made her very scared.

Jing Yongcheng picked up his own big knife, which had been with him for decades. It was Jing Chunxi who had just given it to him. He comforted his wife and said, "Don't be afraid. Just do as Sister Xi said. Remember to lock the door. Don't open it unless we hear you."

Jing Chunxi also said, "Grandma, don't forget..." Then he pointed to the sky, indicating that he had helpers to reassure the old lady, and finally added, "The doors and windows are locked tightly. Don't open those rooms even if you come."

In fact, Jing Chunxi discovered that the people from Jing Yongjian and Jing Yongqiang's family were now basically gathered together with them. There were more men from their two families who did not go to the market this time. After dismantling their own tents, they came to help them dismantle them and helped them move a lot of things. They did not think of escaping first and seemed to have regarded several families as a group.

The kitchen at the inn wasn't very big, but it was connected to a woodshed, so if you moved all the firewood and other things out, there should still be enough space for so many people. So even though I reminded my grandmother, I let her do what she wanted and didn't want to forcefully interfere. After all, my grandmother was a smart person and would always weigh the pros and cons of whether to get together.

But the old patriarch's family was used to being arrogant and domineering. Even if the eldest, second, third, and fourth clan members had gone out to the market, the rest of them were not idle either. As soon as they entered the post station, they would kick and knock on the door, making a lot of noise and having no manners at all. They shouted and yelled without caring whether the people living inside were officials or ordinary passers-by.

Some of the officials had already gone to the market, so there weren't many left. When the people inside heard about the wolf pack, they were even more frightened than they were. They almost wanted to block the door shut. Even the yamen runners and waiters at the post station were half asleep and refused to get up. Naturally, they didn't believe the wolf pack. Such talk was completely alarmist. They had never heard of it in their long time living here. There was constant traffic on both sides of the official road. Even if there were wolves, they would only hear of hunters occasionally hunting one or two, but there was no way a wolf pack could exist.

So the people in the old patriarch's family were just jumping around in vain. No one paid any attention to them, and instead they wasted time finding a place to hide.

However, not long after the commotion, he heard that the people knocking on the door outside were the prisoners he was escorting. Scarface was forced to open the door and walk out with two officers in his sleepy eyes. Each of them had a knife on his waist.

"Who told you there were wolves? How could they tell you in advance when they were coming?"

"That's right, don't look for trouble! If the wolves really came, they would have gnawed all your bones clean long ago. Why would they wait for you to make chaotic preparations?"

When he came out and saw the door that had been smashed open and the lock that had been broken, Scarface's face looked very ugly: "Who did this? I think you have a long life. I will settle the score with you tomorrow." He originally wanted to whip them a few times, but when he touched his waist, there was nothing. He came out in a hurry and didn't take the whip with him, but brought a knife with him. He couldn't whip them a few times, otherwise Scarface would really want to beat them up.

When the old patriarch's family came in, they kicked and slammed the door, which scared away the good dream he had just had. Naturally, he was not in a good mood towards them.

The people from the other two families did not make any noise when they entered the yard. They all followed Old Madam Jing and the others into the two connected kitchens and woodshed. Now there was only the old patriarch's family in the yard, and Jing Changning and Grandpa Xiaobei were also standing outside. Tao Jin was angry when he saw that someone finally came out, and he watched coldly.

Jing Yongcheng did not enter the house, but he did not let Scarface and the others see him to avoid trouble.

"I broke down the door. We went to the market and the locals said wolves would come out to hunt during this time of year, so we came back to warn them to come in. I broke down the lock on the door, and you still want me to compensate you? Do you want me to be brought before the authorities tomorrow?"

A dandy is a dandy. He does bad things with a clear conscience, and acts like a hero who takes responsibility for his actions. He walks forward with his chest puffed out, making people feel that he is very protective of the criminals.

He was angry at Scarface, and seemed to want to ask them why they didn't open the door and why they put the prisoner's life in dire straits.

Scarface was speechless when he saw the young dandy. Even now, he still couldn't understand why this kid was still hanging around with the criminal in the dark of day. Although they didn't know Tao Jin's identity, they knew that he had someone behind him, someone they couldn't afford to offend.

But he couldn't ignore his own responsibilities, so Scarface had to nod and bow respectfully to him, and called to the two officers beside him: "Can't you see that the lock is broken? Hurry up and see if it can still be used, or find something else to tie it up." His voice was very helpless and a little irritable.

Fearing that things would get stalemated, Xiaobei's grandfather stepped forward and pretended to be flattering to Scarface, saying, "Seventh Brother, please give us some face. After all, there are many women and children here, and we are all so frightened that we dare not sleep. Just let us stay in the yard, it's better than staying outside. Besides, if something really happens, we will be delayed for a few days, which would not be good if it delays our trip."

Grandpa Xiaobei had bandaged Tao Jin's wounds before and had also prescribed typhoid medicine for their two officers, so Scarface still had some respect for him. He really didn't dare to offend the little playboy, and now that someone had handed him a ladder, he took the opportunity to act accordingly.

He nodded and said, "Master Tao is wise. This is the best way to do it. However, we can't arrange a house. How about Master Tao and squeeze in with us? As for the others, we can only let them continue to set up their tents in the yard."

Inviting this playboy in was just a polite excuse. If such a person lived in the same room with them, he would have to stay awake until dawn. Besides, if anyone wanted to deal with him, it should be County Lieutenant Yan who brought him into the team. It had nothing to do with him and Master Liu at all.
