Su Li heaved a sigh of relief. If he was really hidden on the mountain, it would really be dangerous.
Although they knew that those soldiers were fake, the villagers did not know that. As long as Cui Dongsheng exerted a little pressure, those people in the village would be scared to death.
Moreover, she did not have any evidence to prove that those people were fake. If she spoke, she might be criticized by the villagers. They would even label her as disrespectful. She would not do such a losing business.
Cui Dongsheng even asked the villagers to search the mountain. Every time he opened his mouth, he offered to give them a tael of silver. In her opinion, he would only give them a hammer in the end.
If they didn’t listen to the old man, they would suffer a loss later!
“Where are the children?” Su Li asked.
Cheng Yu was afraid that those people would harm the children, so he took He Qingyao and He Qingmu with him when he left. He Yufeng came back, but the children did not come back with him. He must be with Cheng Yu and the others.
Cheng Yu and the others still had an injured person with them. It was more or less not dangerous for the children to follow them, so Su Li was a little worried.
He Yufeng saw through her thoughts and comforted her. “Don’t worry about them. They’re also at the village chief’s house. With Auntie Zhou watching over them, nothing should happen.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZhou Yu liked children more and usually doted on the two children. She looked like she wanted to kidnap them home and treat them as her grandchildren, so she was relieved to leave the children at the village chief’s house.
At the mention of Zhou Yu, Su Li could not help but think of that ingrate, He Dahai.
Su Li voiced her worries. “Do you think the village chief’s wife will expose us?” As the saying goes, once bitten, twice shy.
If Zhou Yu was as obsessed as He Dahai and reported them for the sake of money, they would definitely be at a disadvantage. There was still a chance of survival if she schemed, but it was not worth it!
He Yufeng smiled and shook his head. “Don’t worry about that. She won’t do that. This time, not only are we involved, but her son is also involved. Now that He Wenda is her only child, not only will she not expose us, but she will also cover for us. A mother won’t let her child be in danger.”
Zhou Yu was not He Dahai. This matter had already involved He Wenda. If Zhou Yu exposed them, wouldn’t it be equivalent to exposing her child?
Zhou Yu had already lost one child. She could not drag the other child into the mud for a little money.
Even if she had the money, her child would begone. What did she want the money for? So what she did would not be worth it at all.
Hearing He Yufeng’s words, Su Li knew that she was thinking too much. She felt slightly relieved. Ordinary mothers prioritized their children first. If this matter involved their children, they would think twice before acting.
Su Li said, “That’s good. When they leave, go take a look at Ling Yiran. He just finished the surgery. I don’t want him to lose his life after this.”
Ling Yiran was indeed a little pitiful. He had done everything he needed to pay attention to after the surgery.
When He Yufeng heard Su Li’s concern for Ling Yi Ran, he felt a little upset. She had never been so concerned about him!
The last time he had surgery, he could not eat spicy food, but she had boiled meat slices for him and spicy rabbit meat herself. At that time, his drool almost flowed out.
Su Li didn’t notice He Yufeng’s expression. She swept her gaze across the courtyard. The courtyard had been messed up by those people. She entered the house to take a look. Everything in the house had been messed up. The blanket had been thrown to the ground, and a few bowls in the kitchen had shattered.
Su Li was very glad that she had kept all her herbs before the bandits came. Otherwise, all her treasures would have suffered.
Su Li picked up the blanket that had been thrown on the ground and patted it. Damn it, she had to drug those people later. Otherwise, they would have made a wasted trip.
He Yufeng took the blanket from her hand and said, “The sun is not bad today. I’ll take it out to dry.”
Su Li nodded. “Okay, go ahead! I’ll tidy up this room.”
Su Li was tidying up the room in the house while He Yufeng was tidying up the courtyard outside.
The two of them worked very quickly. In a short while, they cleaned up the messy little straw hut.
Su Li rubbed her waist. “I’m finally done packing.”
She had to put this debt on Ling Yiran’s head and ask him to pay this fee. It was because of him that their family was almost tortured to death.
When He Yufeng saw Su Li’s actions, a trace of heartache flashed across his eyes. He walked over and said, “Does your back hurt? Go lie on the bed and rest for a while. I’ll get you some medicinal wine to rub on it.”
Su Li shook her head and refused. “It’s fine. I’ll be fine after sitting for a while.” At the village chief’s house.
Zhou Yu had just sent the so-called official away and was about to go to the vegetable garden to pick some vegetables when she heard someone calling her.
“Eh, why does it seem like Wenda is calling me!!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZhou Yu shook her head. She felt that she might have heard wrongly. Last time, He Wenda had asked someone to bring a message back to them. He said that he would not be coming back for this break and wanted to bring his wife back to his family.
Although she felt uncomfortable, she could not see him either. She had nowhere to vent her anger.
She was a daughter-in-law who could not lay eggs. Her silly son treated her like a treasure every day and held her in his mouth, afraid that she would melt. He held her in his hands and was afraid that she would fall.
Every time she saw them like that, she would get angry. She could tolerate them being intimate with each other, but what she could not tolerate the most was that after so long, she did not even see the shadow of a grandchild.
“Mother-
“It’s really Wenda’s voice!!” Zhou Yu quickly walked towards the door. When she saw He Wenda, her eyes lit up. “Son, it’s really you!”
“Mother.” He Wenda saw that Zhou Yu was all smiles at home.
Zhou Yu grabbed He Wenda’s hand and said, “Son, quickly enter the house.”
He Wenda glanced at the courtyard and did not see anyone else at home. He still asked, “Mother, are you the only one at home?”
Zhou Yu thought that He Wenda was asking about He Yuan’s whereabouts. She smiled and nodded. “Your father went with the officials to catch a fugitive. He will probably only be back after a while.”
Zhou Yu was a little confused by his words and asked, “You brought people back?”
He Wenda nodded randomly. “Yes, I brought a few friends.”
When Yao Jun and Cheng Yu heard He Wenda’s words, they walked out from hiding and carried Ling Yiran into the courtyard.
Yao Jun took two steps and turned to He Qingyao and He Qingmu. “Come in quickly.”
These two little fellows were Su Li’s treasures. If he lost them, Su Li would skin him alive..
