At this time, Cui Hongyu showed a rare calmness. He was neither panic nor confused. He nodded and repeated, "Tell Lidong to be careful about Chen Ping and take Qiao'er with you. If you don't come out today, go to Dachun."
Stay at home."
Chen Xiaobei nodded and thrust the two hundred taels of silver notes from his arms to Cui Hongyu, "Take this."
At this time, Chen Xiaobei felt at ease. Even though he had just traveled through time, he still established a deep relationship with Cui Hongyu and Chen Qiaoer during their time together.
If he really can't come out, at least Cui Hongyu still has money. He gave her two hundred taels today. The one thousand taels Liu Rumei gave her last time is also in Cui Hongyu's hands. These silvers are enough for the two of them to live and clothe themselves.
He has lived for many years, and besides, with Cui Hongyu’s ability, there is no problem at all in supporting himself.
Although Chen Qiaoer didn't understand much, she could understand one thing, that is, Chen Xiaobei was going to be separated from them temporarily.
She hugged Chen Xiaobei's neck and said, "Brother, don't leave. Qiaoer doesn't want my brother to leave."
Chen Xiaobei kissed his sister's little face and said, "Don't worry, brother will be back soon. You have to listen to sister-in-law."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the house.
He hid the other nine serial crossbows in the woodshed of Dachun's family.
He took them out one after another and placed them in front of He Laoqi.
He Laoqi looked down at these serial crossbows, sighed slightly, and winked at the policemen next to him.
Two police officers came forward to pick up the serial crossbow and inspected them one by one. "He Captou, I have inspected them and they are all intact."
He Laoqi looked at Chen Xiaobei again and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Chen Xiaobei turned around again, looked at Cui Hongyu and Chen Qiaoer, then, trying his best to squeeze out a smile, turned around and walked out of the yard.
After walking a few steps, he turned back again and looked at the newly built house. He felt helpless. This damn brand new house has not been lived in yet. You can't give others an advantage. I hope this time, I can turn the bad luck into good luck.
Bar.
At this time, people were standing on both sides of the village road.
Almost the whole village came.
After all, the wolf meat had just been divided up in the morning, and now the village chief Chen Xiao would be taken away. Of course the villagers were reluctant to part with it.
The ancestor took a step forward and stopped in front of He Laoqi, "My lord, may I ask what crime Chen Lichang committed and why he was treated like this?"
Just as He Laoqi was about to speak, Chen Xiaobei spoke first, "Ancestor, I'm fine. I'll come back as soon as I go. Please let everyone disperse."
He Laoqi looked at Chen Xiaobei with a grateful face, and gave a thumbs up in his heart. It's interesting, he is a man.
Looking at the situation today, if I said that Chen Xiaobei had committed a crime, I might not be able to leave the village.
After hearing Chen Xiaobei's words, the ancestor shook his head and said, "My child, it's already this time and you're still lying to me."
After speaking, he pointed at everyone present emotionally, "Hiding weapons privately is a capital crime. We..." Halfway through, the ancestor couldn't continue.
However, these words confused He Laoqi and Chen Xiaobei.
Who said it was a capital crime?
He Laoqi looked at Chen Xiaobei. Chen Xiaobei was also confused. He kept shaking his head. I didn't say what he meant.
At this moment, Chen Xiaobei saw a smiling face. Chen Ping, who was standing not far behind his ancestor, looked at him with a proud expression.
Chen Xiaobei understood instantly that it must be Chen Ping who spread the news.
Thinking of this, he took a step forward and raised his hand to his ancestor, "Ancestor, although the serial crossbow is a weapon, I did not keep it privately. The crime will not lead to death. Don't listen to people's nonsense." He deliberately made two nonsense.
The word is very strong.
Lidong also immediately understood the subtext of Chen Xiaobei's words. Just as he was about to speak, he felt someone tugging on his sleeve. He turned around and saw that it was Cui Hongyu. Cui Hongyu shook his head to the outside, indicating that he should go out before talking.
.
Lidong followed Cui Hongyu and squeezed out of the crowd, "Sister, brother Xiaobei..."
Cui Hongyu raised her hand to stop him, "Xiao Bei asked me to tell you that Chen Ping is responsible for all this. You have to be careful about his schemes behind his back."
"Besides, you can find a way to hold He Laoqi and the others down while I go to the county to bring in reinforcements."
At this time, the ancestor obviously believed Chen Xiaobei's words. He cleared his throat and said, "Okay, in this case, let's let it all go."
It can be seen that everyone still has a natural sense of trust in Chen Xiaobei.
Lidong suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute."
The sudden voice startled He Laoqi.
When he saw clearly that it was Lidong calling, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It's Lidong, what else do you want?"
Lidong stepped forward and clasped his fists at He Laoqi, "He Captou, you have worked hard all the way. Please allow me to express my thoughts on behalf of all the villagers of Hetou Village."
He Laoqi was confused.
What does this mean?
Before he could speak, Lidong continued: "I have ordered people to prepare some food and wine. Please fill your stomach and go."
This? This, what's going on?
Come to arrest people and take care of their food?
Not only was he confused, but everyone in the village was also confused.
The ancestor even slapped his cane angrily, "Lidong, I'm afraid you are deceived."
Lidong smiled and said, "Ancestor, am I right? It's almost noon now. We can't let all the officials go to the county seat hungry."
Before the ancestor could speak, Chen Ping on the side became excited and said, "Yes, yes, I still have a pot of old wine at home. I'll get it. I'll get it."
He Laoqi looked at Chen Xiaobei asking for help. That means we should leave quickly.
Unexpectedly, this time, Chen Xiaobei also pretended to be confused, "He Captou, I think Lidong is right. It's almost noon now. Let's eat before we leave."
Upon hearing this, the ancestor came to his senses. Yes, Chen Xiaobei hadn't eaten either.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly shouted to the people around him: "Okay, everyone, hurry up and prepare a few dishes. When the dishes are ready, you can use your strength, eat and drink enough, and then let all the officials go on their way."
After saying that, he stepped forward and raised his hands to He Laoqiyi, "He Captou, please."
Under the big locust tree, the village guard's dormitory was quickly cleared out and put on a table.
While everyone was making a fuss, Cui Hongyu hurried home to tidy up, took Chen Qiaoer with him, and drove the donkey cart towards the county town.
For more than twenty miles, Cui Hongyu walked so fast that he almost fell apart.
But this hardship is nothing. As long as she can rescue Chen Xiaobei, she is willing to do anything.
Entering the county seat, asking around all the way, we came to Liu Mansion.
Liu Rumei handed her waist badge forward and said to Ma Xiaoyi who was guarding the door: "Please let me know, I want to see Miss Liu Rumei."
Ma Xiaoyi took the badge, looked at it, and handed it back, "May I ask, girl, who are you?"
Cui Hongyu bowed again, "My husband's name is Chen Xiaobei, and he is from Hetou Village."
It can be said that everyone in the Liu family knew about Chen Xiaobei now. When he heard that she was his wife, Ma Xiaoyi quickly turned around and ran towards the house.
