Chapter 11: Bandits? It's dead
"Aunt, you are very good to Bai Yan, it is Bai Yan who has dragged you down all these years. Auntie, Bai Yan will take care of herself. ”
Wen Yan raised her hand and rubbed Bai Yan's head, and said angrily: "You kid, your temper is as stubborn as your mother." It's okay, just stay at my aunt's house for one night tonight, and I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”
"Okay, thank you, aunt."
Tie Dan on the side watched the interaction between his mother and the "little mute", his eyes almost fell, and he suddenly thought of something, pointed at Bai Yan and said: "I said how every time I fight with someone, you will help me, it turns out to be..."
Before he finished speaking, he was slapped on the head again, and Tie Dan covered his head and shouted: "Ouch, it hurts, mother, why are you beating me again?" ”
"You don't care about it, you know how to fight every day. Starting from Ming'er, let Brother Bai Yan teach you to read and write, if you don't read well, the old lady will whip you. ”
"Huh?! Read? Mother, my dear mother, you can spare me. ”
Looking at the iron egg with a sad face, and looking at Bai Yan who was smiling lightly, Xiao Ziqing whispered in his brother's ear: "Brother, do you think we can continue to study?" ”
"If we hadn't been here, maybe you'd already have taken the children's exam. Alas..."
Xiao Ziyang didn't respond, but the light in his eyes dimmed a lot.
His father told him about it.
At the time, he didn't understand it, but as he watched the people who protected them die one after another, he understood why they had to leave there.
If it weren't for his father's exchange for going to the border, they wouldn't know what to do now...
Xiao Ziyang clenched his fists tightly and said word by word: "Second brother, don't mention the matter of reading in the future, we are too weak." ”
As if thinking of something, Xiao Ziqing's face suddenly turned a little pale, and he said with some trepidation: "Brother, I am..."
"Let's go see my sisters."
"Hmm."
Watching the brothers walk towards a room in the Wu family, Guo Xiaoxiao thought in her heart whether to let them go to a private school to study...
"Stepmother, sister, they're sleepy, let's go home."
Guo Xiaoxiao, who was talking to Aunt Wu, looked at the four children, nodded and thanked the Wu family, and then disappeared into the night with the four children...
Wu Family Hall.
"Mother, daughter-in-law..."
"Yan'er, my mother knows." Without waiting for Wen Yan to continue, Wu interrupted her loudly, and then continued: "You are a good boy, and Bai Yan is also our child. ”
"Take care of him in the future, you don't have to avoid people, otherwise you will think that no one in our family Bai Yan hurts, and it is easy to bully." As he spoke, he looked at his grandson Tie Dan, "Tie Dan, don't talk about your brother Bai Yan like that in the future, remember?" ”
"Remember, Grandma."
"Bai Yan, Grandma knows what you're afraid of, but you have to know, even if you don't get close to our family, if something really happens, what do you say will happen to your aunt?"
The meaning of Wu's words, Bai Yan also knew in his heart that if that day really came, his aunt would definitely protect him, in that case...
Thinking of this, Bai Yan pinched the silver in his hand, Guo Xiaoxiao's neat movements flashed in his mind, a trace of anger flashed in Qingming's eyes, and the aura on his body also changed, and he replied categorically: "I will make myself stronger and protect my aunt and you!" ”
"Then we will protect you until you become stronger. It's done, that's it, Tie Dan'er, Ming'er, you and your mother will pack up Bai Yan's things and move them over. Wife, I went to the village chief's house to talk about it, and by the way, I saw what the situation was in the village. ”
With that, Wu got up and walked out on his little feet, leaving the four of them in the house to look at each other.
The next day, as soon as the sky was slightly bright, Xiao Ziyang took Xiao Ziqing and ran in the yard.
Xiao Ziqing, who was a little late for them, saw that the two elder brothers had already started, and hurriedly yawned to keep up with them.
Under the eaves, Guo Xiaoxiao looked at the three brothers and sisters with satisfaction, turned around and walked into the stove room.

Bell ~ bell bell ~~
Just after breakfast, Guo Xiaoxiao thought about where to sign in today, and heard the village bell.
looked at Xiao Ziyang suspiciously, "Ziyang, is this the bell?" ”
"Stepmother, it must have been the village chief's grandfather who rang, let's hurry up and take a look under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village."
Hearing this, Guo Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, and then walked out of the yard quickly with the little girl in his arms.
Xiao Ziyang's brother and sister quickly followed.
Along the way, everywhere he saw were villagers walking in a hurry, Guo Xiaoxiao blinked his eyes, thought of what happened last night, and wondered if there was a result.
Really.
When I arrived at the entrance of the village, there were already villagers with different expressions standing under the big locust tree.
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't squeeze forward, but found a place with few people to stay, and Xiao Ziqing stood beside her with a straight face.
Xiao Ziyang's brothers disappeared, and they should have squeezed into the villagers surrounding in front.
Seeing that the people were almost there, the village chief Wu Tangzhi stood on the big stone under the tree and shouted: "Be quiet, be quiet, listen to me." ”
"Those people were taken away by the cha ye last night, and the cha ye said that they were bandits."
As soon as the village chief's words were spoken, the villagers who were quiet just now began to talk again: "What? Brigand? What a bandit? ”
"I'm a..."
"This one who kills a thousand knives..."
"Also, four bandits died last night, and if you want to ask me later, you all give me a good talk, say whatever you know, and don't talk nonsense if you don't know. Is it all clear? ”
"Shhh Dead, huh? ”
"That's not it, it's so dead, it's miserable to look at..."
"Mom! Good thing I didn't see it, otherwise..."
"You're so daring."
"Village chief, don't worry, we will never talk nonsense."
"That's right. However, how did those four people die last night? ”
"Yes, village chief, how did those four people die?"
"I seem to hear someone shouting the female devil, I don't know if I'm hallucinating..."
"You heard that, I thought I misheard..."
"Ouch! Isn't there a female devil coming to our village? ”
"I think it may be that the mountain god of our nameless mountain has appeared..."
“………”
Before the official could ask questions, the villagers below began to discuss in a whisper, and everyone had different opinions.
Thirteen-year-old Bai Yan was nervous at the moment, he guessed that those four people were the ones who were killed by that woman last night.
But he couldn't say.
The woman saved him.
Moreover, she has a good relationship with her aunt, if she wants to become stronger, she may be able to learn martial arts from that woman...
The Wu family and Wen Yan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other, and they guessed that the dead person might have something to do with the Xiao family's little daughter-in-law.
Although this is speculation, it is not far from ten.
The two looked at Guo Xiaoxiao, who was standing not far away, and saw that her expression was indifferent, and she didn't mean to be afraid at all.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law shook their heads, saying that they didn't know about it, after all, they hadn't even been out of the yard.
Although those four people are bandits, after all, it is human life, and if those officials charge the Xiao family's little daughter-in-law with murder, then what can she do...
