Chapter 43: Just go without delay
Jiangjia Village, which is more than 60 miles away from Quzhou City, on the mountain road outside the village, He Shuning's senior sister and brother rode straight to the small village at the end of the mountain road on a high-headed horse.
This small Zhuangzi was bought by Mrs. Wu for the family to take refuge for a while, Zhuangzi is located on a low hill next to Jiangjia Village, in addition to a small courtyard with two entrances, there is only a large piece of fruit trees and a small pond, it is the kind of ornamental nature greater than the economic value of the Zhuangzi, the Zhuangzi title deed is under the name of Mrs. Wu's henchman Su Yun who has been released from the mansion.
After the three masters of the Wu family were buried, Mrs. Wu sent her second daughter-in-law Shen, third daughter-in-law Qin, and all the grandchildren of the family to this small village.
It is also thanks to the Wu family's heavy filial piety that she was behind closed doors, and Mrs. Wu dismissed most of the family, otherwise Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, would really not be able to hide the whereabouts of the rest of the family.
He Shuning and the others followed what Mrs. Wu said, and rushed all the way to the small village outside Jiangjia Village.
When the doorkeeper saw the four young men and women galloping on horseback, his tense nerves immediately tightened.
The gatekeeper, who was missing an arm and had been a personal soldier under General Wu, drove his companion to report to the two ladies, while he himself stared warily at the four young men and women on the tall horses.
Mu Qingyun took out a piece of jade pendant given by Old Madam Wu as a token, "This uncle, we were sent by Old Madam Wu to deliver the letter, and I also ask you to pass it on on your behalf." ”
The gatekeeper took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully, and when he saw the Wu character on the front of the jade pendant and the Wu family emblem on the back, the heart that the family was carrying suddenly fell half.
"A few distinguished guests, please wait a while, the villain will come as soon as he goes." Before he finished speaking, he had already slammed the door firmly shut, and then ran to the second gate to report the news.
Mu Qingyun touched his nose and looked back at He Shuning and the others, He Shuning tilted his head innocently, but Ji Yongan shrugged his shoulders both funny and helpless.
Yan Nanxiao touched his beautifully shaped jaw, "Since it is a frightened bird, it is understandable to be more guarded." ”
Ji Yongan glanced at him, "The problem is, this door can't stop us at all." ”
Not to mention the infinitely powerful He Shuning, even he Ji Yongan, he can easily kick this ordinary wooden door away.
There are also those martial arts masters in this Zhuangzi, although they haven't fought yet, but just from their footsteps and breathing, Ji Yongan can judge that they are skilled.
The four of them waited for about a quarter of an hour with a rather speechless patience, and the family who had taken the jade pendant before finally ran back out of breath.
He was accompanied by a young boy of twelve or thirteen years old, who was dressed neatly and shortly, with a tense expression and a solemn expression.
"In Wu Haoqing, everyone has come from afar, please come to the village for a while." The little boy stretched out his hand to make an invitation, and motioned to He Shuning and them to dismount and enter the village.
Mu Qingyun was the first to fly off the horse, He Shuning and the three followed, and the four senior sisters and brothers led their baby mounts and followed the Wu family's eldest young master, Wu Haoqing, into the door.
On the way, the Wu family's family came to help Mu Qingyun and them lead the horses, but none of the four big horses led by the big black horse Ben Lei refused to follow each other away.
The family members looked embarrassed, but Wu Haoqing had a good impression of such a humane horse, he waved away his subordinates, and walked directly to the main hall with four people and four horses.
The family members couldn't recognize the owner of the jade pendant, they only knew that the jade pendant was a jade pendant that everyone in the Wu family had as a symbol of identity, but Wu Haoqing knew that the jade pendant belonged to his grandmother, Mrs. Wu.
Old Madam Wu has always carried this jade pendant with her, and anyone who can take out this jade pendant and accurately find their hiding place must have seen his grandmother, Old Madam Wu.
Wu Haoqing, who had been hiding in Zhuangzi for almost a month, was eager to know if his grandmother and mother were okay, so after hiding his aunt and younger siblings in the cellar of the second courtyard, Wu Haoqing followed his family to meet the four of Mu Qingyun's sisters and brothers.
He had already figured out that it would be best if these people had good intentions, and if these people had bad intentions, then he couldn't solve any problems just by hiding and not seeing.
Instead of letting himself fall into passivity, he should be proactive.
The young boy, who was quite a father, decided to face the danger head-on, but the rest of the family was sheltered by his still very thin wings as best he could.
Fortunately, as soon as Mu Qingyun sat down, he took out two text messages from Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu to her family.
Wu Haoqing, who had read the letter, had a big stone in his heart, and the three words "Yuxumen" also made him like Mrs. Wu, who had great confidence in Mu Qingyun's senior sister and brother.
The young man confessed with red eyes, and instructed the family to serve tea and entertain guests in the courtyard, while he himself took the letters from his grandmother and mother to meet the two aunts.
After a while, Mu Qingyun and the four of them were invited to the second courtyard.
The two widows of the Wu family saw them, and the third lady of Wu, Qin, pinched the small note written by her father to Mu Qingyun and burst into tears.
Although he had already made up his mind not to affect his mother's family, the Qin family was still quite happy that his mother's family was able to lend a hand.
Mu Qingyun did not persuade her not to cry, but directly told them that the Qin messenger team that passed the decree and arrested people had arrived in Kaihua County, "... Although we drugged the soup with alcohol, it could only be delayed for a while, so we didn't have much time to delay. ”
When Qin Shi heard this, he hurriedly collected his tears, "Brother Qing entertained a few guests, and my second sister-in-law and I packed up our things with the children, and we must leave within a quarter of an hour." ”
Hiding the weakness, the Qin family has the style of the old lady Wu's tiger girl, she and the second lady Shen hastily packed up the gold and silver, and then brought a few children from the family to the main hall to meet Mu Qingyun.
He Shuning's senior sisters and brothers like the Wu family's resolute and resolute style, and they can even foresee that even if they embark on the road of escape, the women and children of this family will definitely not drag them back and cause trouble.
"I've asked my subordinates to prepare the carriage and horses, four young heroes, let's go."
The Qin family held her niece in one hand and her eldest son in the other, and the martial maid behind her was holding her youngest son, who was only four years old.
Shen is also holding a child in one hand, but the two children she is holding are both her own.
Coupled with Wu Haoqing, the eldest young master of Wu, the six grandchildren of the Wu family are all here.
In addition to them, the Shen family and the Qin family also brought eleven subordinates from their families.
These eleven subordinates, one of them is the second lady's dowry grandmother, she has no relatives and no reason to go, and has been dependent on the second lady, and the second lady only left her own old lady when she dismissed the subordinates.
The remaining ten subordinates were all orphans.
The two martial maids who are familiar with fists and feet, the Shen family and the Qin family kept them to take care of the two young ladies in the family.
Eight were originally prepared by the Wu family for the eldest young master Wu and the second young master Wu, and in the future, they would go to the battlefield with them and give them a good martial arts little servant, and the eldest young master Wu divided three to his three younger brothers, and five were kept to help him protect his family and find out the news.
As for the other subordinates who were currently in Zhuangzi, the Shen and Qin clans generously gave them a sum of silver, telling them to leave Zhuangzi immediately and go to other places to avoid trouble.
