Chapter Fifty-One: Audacious and Fearless

ge head invited everyone to a three-room hut on one side for tea.This small house was for raising pigs and provided lodging for villagers who kept watch at night. It was very clean.Xiao Wang was in th...The village head waved his hand and inquired of Li's family and the others.

Everyone, think carefully, has any stranger come to our village before

Li Lao Er hurriedly went to check on each member of his family, and was most relieved to find Wu Cuifang safe and sound.

"Everyone in my family is here, it's impossible to take Funiu away." The villagers looked at each other, also one by one.

Then someone said, "Could it be those who were just dancing the Yangko"

"No, they are only eighteen people, all at the village entrance without leaving. An old soldier responded."

He was a scout in the army camp back then, and he still has his skills today. He hasn't lost his vigilance either.

For a moment, everyone fell silent. Could it be that there really was a ghost

Jiale and Ji'an held each other tightly, sobbing uncontrollably. They thought that if they hadn't gone to watch the Lion Dance and stayed home to look after their younger sister, she wouldn't have been lost.

Jiā Rén's face was ashen. He even volunteered to watch over his younger sister, but ended up losing her...

"Search, even if there are no clues, keep searching!"

Li Laosì stepped forward, his face ashen, and bowed to the villagers.

"Please, fellow villagers, both inside and outside the village, help us look. Any clue would be greatly appreciated. Our Li family will surely show our gratitude."

"Oh, Fourth Brother, don't mention it. We all live in the same village; this is only natural."

"Right, lads, grab your axes and we're heading out of the village. The women and children stay here and rummage around!"

The crowd quickly assigned tasks and dispersed in a flurry.

Just at that moment, Uncle Zhao next door limped in from outside.

"Wait, wait, Fourth Brother!"

He was probably in a hurry, he panted heavily for a few breaths, and then said.

I seem to have seen your second son's wife before, in the small woods behind. She met someone there, then went back home and brought out something to give them.

"My eyesight isn't what it used to be, I couldn't see very clearly. I didn't want to wrongly accuse her, so I just went and checked the footprints. It must be right, that person seemed to head towards the city..."

Li Laoer suddenly turned his head to look at Wu Cuiflower, his eyes bloodshot.

Wu Cuiflower trembled like a leaf in the wind, she had long since regretted it to her bones.

I was hotheaded before, thinking that if my younger brother won more money, he could pay off the debt.

She wouldn't have to keep coming to her for money anymore, so she gave Fu Niuer to her younger brother, hoping it would bring him good luck.

She originally thought that after everyone watched the Yangko dance and went home, she would soon be able to bring her child back.

We'll see about that, when the time comes. Take it out to play then.

She's the aunt, spoiling her niece. Who could say anything about that

To her surprise, she had been so happy just now that she forgot all about it. As she spoke, they went back home together, and there was no chance to go out again.

With the whole family so frantic, and everyone in the village mobilizing to find the child, she dared not speak up...

"You slut!" After years of marriage, Li Lao Er knew Wu Cuifang's character all too well.

Given her guilty look, there's nothing left to be unclear about.

He slapped Wu Cuifang hard, sending her crashing to the ground.

In the end, he pulled her over directly and knelt before Old Lady Li.

"Tell me, did you take the child" Li Laotai rushed forward and grabbed Wu Cuifang's neck, her eyes wild with rage.

"What have you done to Fu Niuer Speak up!"

Wu Cuiflower was pinched and rolled her eyes. Before she could scream for help, Li Laosì had already snatched a chopping axe and held it to her neck.

"If you dare to lie, I'll chop off your head."

The icy blade pressed against her neck, Wu Cuifang was completely terrified and wet herself.

"I said... cough, cough, it's Ergou. Ergou misses Funiu, can I hold him for a bit"

Tao Hongying slapped her twice directly, hating to gnash her teeth.

"Little Blessing isn't Wu Erdog's child, what is he thinking! You tell me, what's really going on Where did he take my Little Blessing to"

Wu Cuiflower was still hesitating, Tao Hongying had already rushed to her arm and bit down.

"Ouch, it hurts! "

Wu Cuiflower screamed in pain, but dared not move. A hatchet was still resting on her neck.

"I said, I said! Erdog always loses when he gambles. He wants to get lucky from Funiu's good fortune and turn a profit!"

Everyone thought Wu Erdog wanted to sell Funiu'er and that he was jealous of the Li family and seeking revenge.

But I never would have guessed it was all for gambling and making a profit!

Li Laosi gritted his teeth, forcing himself to hold back the blade from severing Wu Cuifang's head.

A gambler isn't even human.

If she were to win money with Fu Niuer, after that, Fu Niuer would probably become a target for wolves.

If he loses money, will Wu Erdog just discard Funiu or... kill her

No one could fathom what a hopeless gambler like him might do!

"Let's go into the city!"

"Yes, find Wu Erdog and bring Fu Niuer back!"

Li Lao Tai turned back to the house and took out some silver, stuffing it into Li Lao Er's hand.

"Bring Fu Niuer back safely, not a single hair out of place, or our family is finished."

Li Lao'er hated Wu Cuifua so much he wished he could eat her alive. He had given her the two taels of silver, and she ended up ruining his niece!

"Mother, don't worry. Even if I die, I will bring Fu Niu'er back."

Li Lao Er, Li Lao San, Li Lao Si, Tao Hong Ying, along with Jia Ren, Jia Yi, and Jia Huan, directly charged into the wind and snow that had risen at an unknown time.

The village head was not at ease, so he brought four or five villagers along to chase after them.

Wu Cuiflower's neck was free of the knife, lying on the ground about to let out a sigh of relief.

Grandma Li had already brought a basin of cold water and poured it all over her, giving her a refreshing chill.

"Mother, what are you doing"

Although it is already the first month, it is still very cold.

Wu Cuifang sneezed violently, shivering as she tried to get up.

But Mrs. Li shouted to Zhao Yuru, "Get me some rope, tie her up. If Fu Ni'er doesn't come back, she'll just freeze like this!"

Old Li gritted her teeth and smashed the bucket against Wu Cuifang's head again.

"Little Fu Niu'er is only six months old, she hasn't even worn a big coat, and this animal just gave her to Wu Er Gou. All the way to the city, who knows how cold it is! Let her taste what it's like! If our Little Fu Niu'er freezes, she won't have a good time either!"

Zhao Yuru was unusually cruel this time. She found a rope and, like tying firewood, was about to tie Wu Cuifang up.

Wu Cuifua struggled and refused, shouting and crying loudly.

The villagers wanted to help, but they didn't know how to offer assistance.

At this time, Jiaxi and Jiayan rushed out, the two boys hugging their arms and pulling their legs!

Zhao Yuru quickly tied Wu Cuifang up and kicked her hard in the end.

Wu Cuifang still wanted to scold, but Jia An had already gone to the stove to find a rag and stuffed it directly into her mouth.

Wu Cuiflower shivered with cold, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit. She could only writhe on the ground like a maggot.

The villagers watched with envy and swallowed hard. The Li family was truly formidable.

Both the elderly and children, each and every one of them, are “ruthless”...

Without saying how much the family disliked Wu Cuifang, only that Li Lao and others went straight to the county town.

By chance, I actually saw Liu the鏢頭 (biao tou) at the city gate.

He was a generous man, and when he pulled Li Lao Si aside, he burst into laughter.

"Qiusheng, I was just about to go to the village to find you, and here you are. Haha, we're such a perfect pair, always thinking alike and wanting to go together."

Li Laosì managed to squeeze out a smile and didn't hide anything from him. He quickly told him everything about his family.

“Liu Gege, I’ll go find the child first. I’ll come look for you later to drink and apologize!”

Without hesitation, Liu Biaotou simply pulled him along. expect the Tang family to be so easy to get along with, it was a pleasant surprise...The Tang family was undoubtedly the star in Quanzhou City. During this Lunar New Year period, countless people wan...
