Chapter 21 to the Zhao family
The eldest aunt Hua Shi was the fastest, and after a few steps to the door, he opened the door, and when he brought the person inside, he was still asking, "What's the matter?" What's wrong with Grass Nier? ā
Cao Nier is her cousin's milk name, and Xu Zhaonan felt bad when she heard the call for help outside, and at this time she realized her conjecture.
She came this time to borrow money, and secondly, to see her cousin. But she didn't expect that something had already happened to her cousin at this time.
When the two of them entered the house, they saw that the girl who had come was actually wounded.
Her face was red and swollen, the corners of her mouth were torn, and even the clothes on her body were torn and faintly bloodstained.
"Miss told the Zhao family to detain them, they, they are not people, they are beasts! Miss told them to torture them miserably! ā
The little girl's tears flowed down, she choked up and immediately said, "I ran out while people were not paying attention, and Sister Xing'er stayed in Zhao's mansion." Those brutes have something to do out today, hurry, you have to go and save Miss, otherwise, if they come back, it will be too late! ā
As soon as her words fell, the Zhou family only felt that their scalp was numb, and the eldest aunt's legs were even weaker, and they almost sat on the ground.
Xu Zhaonan was somewhat mentally prepared and stood up before everyone.
"The eldest uncle, the second uncle, and a few cousins are also with me, let's go."
"IāI'll have to go with me." The eldest aunt stretched out her hand towards Xu Zhaonan.
Xu Zhaonan grabbed her and helped her to sit on the kang, "Auntie, you have to take care of your grandparents and grandmothers at home, and there are a few small ones, if you believe me, I will definitely be able to bring my cousin back." ā
She finished speaking, looked at her grandfather, and saw that her grandfather nodded to herself, so she waved at her uncle and cousins.
The eldest cousin-in-law hurriedly followed, and came to Xu Zhaonan's side, "There are many people, it is convenient to take care of." ā
Xu Zhaonan paused and nodded, "My cousin-in-law is right." ā
When he arrived at the courtyard, Xu Zhaonan looked around and saw the axe used to chop wood at home, so he took it in his hand.
Originally, everyone was worried, and several cousins were also thinking about whether to hold some weapons, but they were all shocked when they saw Xu Zhaonan's action.
The other people who came out after him were also frightened, and Grandpa Zhou hurriedly shouted, "Nan'er, don't make trouble." ā
"Grandpa, don't worry, I'm measured."
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Guan Jin happened to come over, looked at this posture, frowned, and before he could ask, he was stopped by Xu Zhaonan.
"That's right, your carriage is borrowed for me, so don't follow, sit with my family first."
As she spoke, she pulled Guan Jin into the courtyard, and Guan Jin only had time to give Steward Du behind her a look, and then watched Xu Zhaonan and them walk out.
It was afternoon when Xu Zhaonan arrived at Zhoujiazhuang, and by the time they arrived at Qinglong Town in a carriage, it was already a little dark.
"When we get to Zhao's house, we will take people out directly, don't talk nonsense with them, we have to go out before closing the city gate. If someone stops, I will rush in with my cousin and sister-in-law, and my uncle and cousins will be behind. ā
"Isn't it too dangerous, or are you-"
"It's not dangerous, I have a lot of strength and kung fu, and ordinary people can't stop me."
The uncle hesitantly looked at the axe she was still holding in his hand, and repeated his father's words, "We can't make a fuss." ā
"How can I be such a reckless person......"
Xu Zhaonan was also a little helpless, she took the axe mainly to deter and guard against the Zhao Mansion, but she didn't really want to fight hard.
This topic seemed to make everyone relax a little, but as the gate of the Zhao Mansion got closer and closer, everyone's mood became tense again.
In the Zhao Mansion, the three members of the Zhao family have just returned.
The Zhao family's mother, Wang, has a round face, and she looks very charitable, but the words she says make people feel cold down her spine.
"Is that girl from the Zhou family gone? It's so late, don't delay, if you can't send her. ā
Young Master Zhao leaned on the chair, "It's not bad for a while, I will definitely be able to walk today." Mother, I can't look down on the one surnamed Li, the fat one is like a pig, it's boring! ā
"Bang", it was Master Zhao who put the teacup on the table, and he had a calm face.
"Look at your virtue, you still don't look down on Miss Li? Her dowry peeking out from between her fingers is enough for you to raise five or six more outer chambers, what else are you not satisfied with? Besides, it's good to have a son if you're fatter, otherwise you will follow your wishes and marry someone like Zhou? ā
"That'...... When I wanted to marry Zhou, my father didn't say no. Young Master Zhao lowered his head and retorted in an unwilling whisper.
Speaking of this, Master Zhao was even more angry, "Is it because of her that I agree?" That's because of her grandfather! Who knew that the old guy was as tough as a donkey, and he wouldn't show any words! ā
Young Master Zhao was confident when he heard this, and just wanted to say, then aren't you just selling me as a thing, but before the words came out, he heard the noise of shouting and frightening coming from the front yard.
The three members of the Zhao family frowned together, and inexplicably felt that something was not good, and Zhao Wang's beckoned to the mother-in-law beside him, "Hurry up, go to the Zhou family and watch." ā
As soon as she said this, Uncle Zhou and his entourage entered the door of the hall.
ā¦ā¦
When Xu Zhaonan and the others arrived at Zhao's house, they politely knocked on the door, but as soon as the porter saw Uncle Zhou's face, he immediately wanted to push the door shut.
This situation made everyone's faces change.
Uncle Zhou is the most anxious, he came half a month ago, and the Zhao family was polite at that time, but at this time, he behaved like this, it must be greasy! Thinking that his daughter didn't know what she was still suffering, she couldn't wait to give birth to wings and fly directly into the courtyard.
Xu Zhaonan reacted quickly, raised his foot and kicked the porter to the back, leaving the little cousin and Steward Du who followed him to guard the door, and the rest of the people broke in together.
Zhao Mansion is a wealthy family in Qinglong Town, and the house is not small, Xu Zhaonan took a look around, grabbed two girls in his hands, and asked his cousin-in-law to hold down one too, and let them lead the way to find his cousin. And the uncle used the same means, which was to go directly to the Zhao family to delay time.
"This is not the courtyard where Grass Nier lived last time."
The eldest cousin looked at the dark courtyard that was not even a little bright, and after a little identification, she took the girl in her hand and asked angrily, "You two liar?" ā
"No, no, this is really where the young lady lives, woo...... We don't dare to lie. ā
"Don't dare, female king, spare me, woo......"
Xu Zhaonan and his eldest cousin glanced at each other, and the two of them walked towards the courtyard together.
"Cao Nier? Apricots? The doors of three rooms were opened in a row, and when she finally saw the figure, the eldest cousin shouted hesitantly.
After she finished shouting, Xing'er, who was hiding by the bed, stiffened, and then crawled close to them, and when she saw the face of her eldest cousin clearly, she couldn't help crying, "Cousin, cousin, woo...... You're here, hurry, save Grass Nell! ā
The injury on Xing'er's face is worse than that of the little girl who ran out, and her legs are still a little dragged, and I don't know if it's broken or what.
It's just that there is no time to check it at this time, Xu Zhaonan and the eldest cousin-in-law can't take care of the two little girls they brought over, and they all rushed to the bed.
When the curtain of the bed was pulled open, neither of them could hold back their gasps.
"Grass, these beasts!" Xu Zhaonan couldn't help but burst into foul language.
My cousin only wore a belly pocket, and her middle coat was lightly put on her body, and her exposed skin was bruised, swollen and bleeding in a lot of places, and it was probably because of this that she didn't dare to dress her.
At this time, she was in a coma, her cheeks were abnormally red, Xu Zhaonan touched it, and she only felt very hot.
"W-What is this? Do you have to ask for a doctor, and can you go home directly? The eldest cousin was at a loss, and tears fell down one by one.
Xu Zhaonan gritted his teeth and took his middle coat away, and when he saw other injuries, he bit his lip with his teeth with hatred, so that he could suppress the urge to kill people.
She didn't reply, and Xing'er helped with the idea at this time.
"I can move, how can I hold up this Zhao Mansion. I've found medicine and given it to Cao Nier, let's go quickly. ā
"Okay, let's go!"
Xu Zhaonan frowned tightly, did not rub, put on the clothes for his cousin, and wrapped her in the torn quilt next to her, pulled off the bed curtain and tied her to the back of the eldest cousin.
"I'll escort you and your cousin out, and if you do, stand far away, and don't come to help."
My cousin and Apricot both nodded.
Xing'er's leg was really injured, but fortunately, this girl could bear it, and followed out with Xu Zhaonan's support.
Not long after leaving this small courtyard, a mother-in-law and several family members came to meet him.
Xu Zhaonan originally wanted to try not to hurt people, but at this moment she lifted the axe.
"Whoever dares to stand in my way today, I don't promise that you will all have to be finished."
Her voice was not heavy, and her face was not even ugly, but that posture was to calm the person opposite.
The mother-in-law was instructed by Zhao Wang's family to come over, and she was stopped by the Zhou family for a while, she knew that something was going to happen to her, so she hurried over, and sure enough, the person had been brought out.
Looking at the quilt wrapped in a roll, the mother-in-law was also stunned, but thinking of her wife's methods, it made her eyes black.
After swallowing two mouthfuls of spit, the mother-in-law opened her mouth, "That-ah...... Kill! ā
Xu Zhaonan was full of anger, and he tried his best to say what he said just now, how could he still have the patience to talk nonsense with people here. The moment her mother-in-law spoke, she raised her axe, took a stance, and slashed at the other party.
The northerners are fierce, and there is no shortage of young people fighting and brawling in Qinglong Town, but it is already a lot of trouble to hit two tubes of nosebleeds with a fist, this woman's family directly uses an axe to cut people, and the mother-in-law has lived for so many years except for the time when she was fighting.
She hadn't seen it, let alone the young servants, and almost in an instant, they had run away, leaving only the woman on the ground, unable to crawl, frightened.
Xu Zhaonan kicked her hatefully, "A dog thing for the tiger!" ā
The eldest cousin-in-law and Xing'er were scared, but Xu Zhaonan calmed their hearts at this time.
The three of them took their unconscious cousin and walked out very quickly, but whenever someone came to stop them, Xu Zhaonan's axe was raised. The timid turned and ran, and the bold one knocked the axe unconscious, and there was no blood.
When they arrived at the gate of Zhao's mansion, Steward Du and his little cousin were waiting anxiously, and when they saw them coming, they hurriedly helped put their cousin in the carriage.
Xu Zhaonan pushed Xing'er and her cousin-in-law up, "You go first, it's best to ask a doctor to go out of the city together." I have to go back, and I'll meet these brutes of the Zhao family. ā
