the other side.

Mu Laodie and his companions had already gathered at Cheng Zishi's house, and even the village chief had arrived with his men.

"Mr. Cheng, I'm so sorry." The village chief felt extremely guilty and blamed himself. "I didn't expect Gouzi to dare to return to the village."

Cheng Zishi waved his hand and said kindly, "The village chief can't be blamed for this."

"None of us thought that Gouzi would come back secretly."

He suspected that Gouzi came back secretly because he still wanted to learn to read and write.

Reading has probably become an obsession for Gouzi.

The village chief still blamed himself, "I don't understand. I have given Gouzi a chance to live, why doesn't he cherish it?"

Cheng Zishi said, "Maybe for Gouzi, he came back not to cause trouble for anyone, but to study."

The village chief and others were confused when they heard this.

"No, is there something wrong with Gouzi's brain? Not to mention that Mr. Cheng rejected him a long time ago, just looking at what he did, who would teach him to read?"

"I think there might be something wrong with Gouzi. If he didn't have any problems, would he do such a cruel thing?"

"Whether the dog has any problems or not, it's always better for us to be careful."

Everyone present agreed with this statement. It didn’t matter whether Gou Zi had any problems or not. What mattered was that Gou Zi could not be allowed to do bad things in the village again.

The village chief arranged people to keep watch and patrol, and he made sure that Gou Zi was not allowed to do anything in the village.

The dog, hiding somewhere at the foot of the mountain, kept an eye on the situation despite the cold.

The purpose of his secret return this time was to kidnap Mr. Cheng and take him to a place where no one knew him.

In this way, someone taught him to read and write.

Maybe, he can pass the imperial examination under Mr. Cheng's guidance.

But who knew that as soon as he secretly returned to the village, he was discovered by the villagers.

We can only wait until night.

Gou Zi had a beautiful idea. He planned to wait until the late night and then sneak into Mr. Cheng's house to kidnap him.

But the reality was that he was slapped hard in the face.

Two wolves jumped out of the mountains and pounced on the dog fiercely.

The dog had never seen anything like it before and was so frightened that he ran away, tumbling and crawling: "Help! There's a wolf! There's a wolf coming down the mountain!"

The two wolves only chased and bit the dog, without even looking at the people and things around them.

When Gou Zi saw this situation, he ran even faster and no longer cared about kidnapping Cheng Zishi.

"Don't chase me, please don't chase me!"

The two wolves didn't seem to intend to bite the dog to death, they just chased him out of the village.

This situation attracted many villagers.

"Sure enough, Gouzi has secretly returned to the village! What does he want to do by secretly returning to the village?"

"No matter what he came back for, he's being chased by two wolves, and it's not going to end well."

The villagers who were watching saw that the two wolves were just chasing the dog without even looking at them, so they boldly followed to watch the fun.

"I heard that the village chief and his men brought people to Mr. Cheng's house, apparently just to keep out the dogs."

"No way? Gouzi wants to harm Mr. Cheng? He is worse than a beast."

Gou Zi couldn't hear any of this. At this moment, his mind was full of how to escape from the two wolves.

He doesn't want to die!

He hasn't lived enough and doesn't want to die.

After the two wolves chased the dog out of the village, they squatted at the entrance of the village and stopped chasing him.

Seeing this, Gou Zi took two tentative steps towards the village.

The two wolves immediately stood up straight and bared their teeth at the dog fiercely, as if they were ready to kill him if he came near.

Seeing this, the dog ran away.

If he fails to kidnap Mr. Cheng this time, he will find a way next time.

Anyway, he has money, so it doesn't matter if it takes time.

however--

In the following time, whenever the dog appeared in the village, he would be chased by the wolf, leaving him no chance to enter the village.

After so many times, he no longer dared to sneak back to the village, nor did he think about kidnapping Cheng Zishi anymore.

Instead, he thought about kidnapping a teacher in town to teach him to read.

However, before he could carry out his plan, he was arrested and thrown into jail.

It turned out that it was Cheng Zishi who told the county magistrate about the dog.

……

The next day, noon.

Mu Baobao returned home holding the hands of his two brothers and found that an "acquaintance" had come to the house.

"It's you, uncle!"

She recognized the captain and approached him with a smile on her face, "Uncle, is the little brother here?"

The team leader smiled kindly, "Prince Zheng didn't come. He asked me to deliver something."

He pointed to several boxes in the main hall and said, "Prince Zheng said that this is a gift for you, and he will send someone to deliver gifts during the New Year."

Because he had stayed in Xingzi Village for some time, Prince Zheng specially sent him to deliver gifts.

Mu Baobao tilted his head to look into the main room and saw several large boxes. "What gift did the little brother give me?"

The team leader wasn't too sure. "I don't know the details. Prince Zheng just said it was something you liked."

"I won't stay any longer. I have to hurry back to report."

After saying this, he strode away.

No matter how the Mu family called him, he did not turn around.

"He really left." Mu Baobao scratched his head, very confused. "He looks very tired. Why doesn't he take a day off before going back?"

Zhu rubbed her head and said, "He is going back to report."

"Okay, let's go see what Prince Zheng sent you."

She took Mu Baobao's hand and came to the main room.

Baby Mu walked around the three large boxes, very curious: "Grandma, please open the boxes and let's see what's inside."

Zhu opened a box first.

When the box was opened, she exclaimed, "This box is full of all kinds of cotton and linen."

She picked up a piece of cloth at random, her eyes full of amazement, "The quality of this cloth is better than the cloth we have here."

"How much silver does a box of cloth like this cost?"

Baby Mu lay down beside the big box and looked at it, his big eyes twinkling, "Wow!"

"Grandma, with so much cloth, can we make new clothes?"

Zhu thought more, "It's not easy to repay this favor."

Prince Zheng has no shortage of money or anything else, so it would be difficult for them to repay his favor.

Mu Baobao understands favors, but he doesn't understand why they have to be reciprocated. "Grandma, when little brother comes again, we can talk about this again."

Zhu sighed in her heart. For a family like theirs, it would be impossible for them to see Prince Zheng again in the future.

Forget it, let’s talk about this later.

"Let me see how many bolts of cloth there are."

She took out the cloth one by one and found new cotton underneath.

"cotton?"

She grabbed a handful of cotton in surprise and said, "I was thinking of going to the town to buy cotton, but Prince Zheng gave us cotton as a gift."

If she had left for town earlier, she would have missed it.

When Mubao saw the pure white cotton, he exclaimed, "Wow, there are so many cottons!"

"We can make lots of new clothes."

Just as she finished speaking, she heard a woman's voice that she was not familiar with, "Hey, Mu family, there is so much new cotton, can you lend me some?"
