Chapter 429 Rescue
The clan elder immediately said to Shen: "Have you heard that the Gu family doesn't want you to pay back the money. From now on, you two have nothing to do with each other. You should not disturb the lives of the Chen Zhao brothers and sisters. Do you understand?"
"I understand! I understand!" Shen quickly kowtowed to Mrs. Gu, "Thank you Aunt Gu, thank you for your large number of adults, I'm sorry! I'm sorry..."
Mrs. Gu left her face and didn't want to see the ugly face of this family.
Gu Qiao took Gu's hand, signaled her to bend down, and then said softly: "Grandma, the villagers around outside..."
She muttered for a long time, and after Mrs. Gu straightened her waist, she couldn't help but frown.
Her eyes wandered on Shen Wan and Shen Zhao for a long time, and finally she seemed to make a decision. Then she walked towards the clan elder and said, "Clan elder, I see that there are many villagers outside the courtyard. I guess it was because the magistrate came just now that the county magistrate was too loud and everyone arrived. But they were outside the door and didn't know what they heard in detail. Since this is the case, I want to ask the clan elders to tell them the truth, so that everyone can make random guesses and piece together some messy rumors. What do you think?"
"That Xiaowan..." The clan elder's eyes fell on Shen Wan.
"Luo Biao's injury was in his body, and the severance of relations arose. This matter could not be hidden. Instead of letting the villagers make up, it would be better to tell the truth. Even the magistrate didn't say anything. I don't believe that the villagers dare to gossip. In addition, our family is willing to spend money to treat Luo Biao's injury."
"Hey, you're right." The clan elder sighed, then walked to the gate of the courtyard, and simply asked the villagers to ring the gong and summoned everyone in the village.
Next, he told the villagers all about what happened today.
At this moment, the whole village knew about Chen Zhao's divorce from Luo Hong's family.
The villagers were very disgusted with what Luo Hong and his family did. They praised Gu Pozi and his family for not paying back the money and promising to treat Luo Biao. They even congratulated Chen Zhao for his success in the exam.
But when everyone's eyes fall on Chen Wan, it is inevitable that it is complicated.
Although everyone sympathized with Chen Wan's experience in their hearts, they were inevitably scared: the weak girl looked so tough and dared to stab someone with scissors.
Who dares to marry such a woman? What if she gets angry and stabs her husband with scissors?
Mei subconsciously protected Chen Wan in her arms, but Chen Wan pulled her sleeve, shook her head gently, and said, "Godmother, I'm not afraid."
Now that they have cut off relations with Luo Hong's family, their brother and sister have been willing to suffer. Her brother will definitely have the brightest future. As for herself, as long as her brother lives well, she will be very content.
Mei felt even more distressed when she saw her like this.

After the Luojia Village business was over, their family immediately took Chen Wan and Chen Zhao back to the village.
After this delay, when we arrived at the entrance of the village, it was already dark.
"Aowoo!"
"Aowoo!"
As soon as they entered the village, Gu Qiao's family heard the screams of wolves, and there were more than one.
Gu Qiao turned his head to look at Gu Mazi. Both of them were serious and Chen Zhao was also shocked and suspicious.
Several people were uneasy and immediately accelerated their pace towards the village.
When I arrived in the village, I saw the villagers gathering together with torches, shovels, hoes and other tools, standing on the ridge of the field, guarding them.
"What's going on?" Mrs. Gu asked hurriedly.
One of the villagers turned around and saw Mrs. Gu, and immediately shouted excitedly: "Auntie, your family is back!"
"What's wrong? This is?"
"The wolf is here! Look!" The villagers pointed to a distance and said quickly, "Your family and Uncle Tuo's family were surrounded by wolves. Uncle Tuo's family went to thresh the grain, but Gao and Xiao Nianen were at home. However, Gao also went to the field to pick melons and beans, so Xiao Nianen was left alone. Now the two big men in your family bought tofu saved Xiao Nianen and were fighting with the wolf!"
It was just dark at this time. When Mrs. Gu heard this, she turned her head and looked at her house. Kong Wei and Kong Ji were standing on the roof of Gu Tuo's house.
The sky was getting darker. If it weren't for the moon pouring out silver light and Kong Wei and the others were holding torches in their hands, Mrs. Gu would probably not have seen them.
It's far from each other, it's hard to tell who is who they are.
I could only see one of them holding a torch in one hand, and it seemed to be holding a weapon in one hand, the other was holding a child in the other hand, and it seemed to be holding a weapon in the other hand.
The thing was shining with silver under the moonlight and firelight, perhaps the long sword that Kong Ji and the others wore.
The shadows around the darkness seemed to be full of wolves.
Occasionally, the sound of breaking through the air came from the air, and then you could see the storm of the fields and the wolf running outside the courtyard.
"It's an arrow!" Shen Zhao immediately turned his head and preached.
He also uses arrows, but his ones are wooden arrows, which are not worth mentioning in front of the bows and arrows cast in the army with fine iron.
"It must be the wolf seeking revenge." Gu Qiao also preached immediately, his heart trembled and extremely worried.
In the distance, the pigs in her family and Gu Tuo family circle were also heart-wrenching, accompanied by the chaotic cries of chickens and ducks, and also the fearful cry of Gu Nianen.
These sounds were heard and heartbreaking.
"Auntie, grandfather, please come over!" Gu Jing squeezed out the crowd and came to Gu Ma Zi and preached to her.
Mrs. Gu immediately walked towards the clan elder, and Gu Qiao and the others quickly followed.
When the clan elder saw them coming, he immediately came to the place where there were few people at the base of the courtyard wall and lowered his voice and said, "The situation is critical, and I will not go around with you anymore. I know that your little dumpling is a wolf. Now General Kong doesn't let us go, for fear of hurting the villagers. Although I saw that they seemed to have fired some arrows, I see that there are too many wolves, and General Kong's people don't know when they will arrive. At present, General Kong and the others are afraid that they can't support themselves, so I want to ask if there is any way to make the wolf pack retreat?"
"This..." Mrs. Gu could control the little dumpling, but she had no choice but to face the wolf pack.
"You think about it very much, otherwise General Kong would be in our Gujia Village, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, I mean it is injured! If he hurts somewhere, I am afraid that all the people in our village will suffer." The clan elder was anxious.
On the way, Gu Pozi and Gu Qiao mentioned that today's yamen runners were soldiers under Kong Wei's command. Shen Zhao naturally recognized them. He knew that he could escape the difficulties smoothly. It was probably Kong Wei's work to cut off relations with Luo Hong's family, so he couldn't help but be grateful.
At this moment, he saw Kong Wei taking risks and saving Gu Nianen, not only did he tell the villagers of Gujia Village not to get close to them. Protecting these villagers, he admired Kong Wei even more.
"Grandma, I'll go, Xiaotuanzi listen to me." He said immediately.
He will repay his kindness. This is his principle in dealing with people.
