Chapter 301 Xie Mingan Personally Retrieves
Sister-in-law Liu was the first to get anxious.
She rushed in and grabbed Dong Aniu by the collar.
"Aren't you being a scoundrel? Grandma Qin, do you care about him? If you don't, we all have ways to deal with him!"
Dong Aniu borrowed firewood and quilts from the villagers, as well as some expensive jewelry.
Now the word "lost" simply made everyone unbearable.
The villagers shouted: "Yes, we will deal with it ourselves!"
"Drag him out and beat him up, and see if he can hand it over."
Dong Aniu was so scared that he hugged his head and finally hid behind Grandma Qin.
"Aunt! You can't ignore me. Don't forget that when you were living a hard life, my mother often asked my younger sister to secretly bring you food."
Grandma Qin closed her eyes and held tightly the cloud-patterned cane that Shen Ningning bought for her.
Listening to the villagers' shouting and cursing, and Dong Aniu's rogue and fearless words.
Grandma Qin hit the ground heavily with her cane.
"Enough!"
Everyone was silent instantly.
Grandma Qin's majestic eyes turned and looked at Dong Aniu.
"You said that you would definitely pay back the things you borrowed from everyone."
"But now you can't pay it back, these things have become your debt, you must pay it back, and I can't help you."
Grandma Qin said, "You go home, everyone in the village, please give me face and allow Aniu five days to raise the money."
"Even if the things can't be paid back, give half of the money owed first."
The villagers looked at each other and thought that Grandma Qin's idea was good.
Everyone agreed and ignored Dong Aniu's crying.
The villagers dragged him out of the village and threw him into the ice and snow.
Dong Aniu got up from the ground crying, his body covered with snow foam.
"I want money, where can I get it!" He rolled his eyes anxiously.
Suddenly.
He thought of a good idea.
Dong Aniu has a younger sister who just celebrated her 23rd birthday.
She hasn't married yet, but she is well-known in the village for her beauty and virtue.
She can chop wood and cook.
The old merchant in Yu'an County has long had his eyes on her and wants to buy her back to be his eighteenth concubine.
If he can sell his sister to that man, the money he gets...
Dong Aniu glanced at the village.
Oh, he won't return the money.
He will flee the capital immediately after taking the money!
Thinking of this, he hurriedly ran home excitedly.
On the official road covered with snow and dust, a fierce horse galloped, followed by dozens of guards.
They were chasing the Ma family who were howling in front of them.
Lifen leaned against Aunt Ma tightly, constantly urging Ma Laoer who was driving the donkey cart.
"Second brother, hurry up, hurry up, we're going to be caught up!"
Under their seats were piled with cold-proof supplies that they had forcibly taken away from Xiangyun Village in the name of borrowing.
The firewood was not easy to carry, so Lifen had already exchanged it for silver.
They had been walking for almost two days, but they were still caught up!
Ma Laoer was getting more and more anxious, whipping the horse with a bang.
"I want to go faster, but this is a donkey cart, it can't catch up with the horse, not to mention, it's pulling four of us!"
"Lifen, if you are filial, you can jump down by yourself. You can be caught back, but our mother can't."
Aunt Ma's face was pale, as if she had not recovered from the shock of that day.
She murmured uneasily: "Yes, yes! I can't be caught back."
"The princess recognized me and knew that I was making a scene, so she almost poured oil on her."
"If I go back, won't I be dead? Lifen, you have always been filial, you go down!"
As she said that, Aunt Ma's skinny hand pushed Lifen's shoulder hard.
Lifen almost fell down and screamed in fear.
She roared: "Mom, without me, you can't get this cart of things!"
"Third brother is the most useless, why don't you push him down!"
Ma Lao San's eyes widened: "What are you talking about? I am my son, who are you?"
"When you get married in the future, you will belong to someone else's family."
Just when several people were arguing among themselves.
"Whoosh" sounded through the air.
A purple feather arrow pierced through the gap between several people from behind and pierced directly into the donkey's buttocks.
The pulled donkey screamed in pain and immediately broke free from the bolt on its neck.
The Ma family rolled off the car and fell into the snow, all of them fell with blood on their heads and screamed in pain.
Especially Aunt Ma, who fell and couldn't get up immediately.
Even so, she still grabbed Lifen's sleeve tightly and shouted at her two sons.
"Second and third sons, run, run!"
Ma Lao Er and Ma Lao San didn't care about them, and immediately ran to the left and right, desperately running.
Little did they know that the tall figure on the fierce horse had two fingers coldly resting on the bow and arrow.
Bend the bow and draw the string.
Xie Mingan's eyes were dark and sharp.
In his eyes, the figure of Ma Laoer in the distance looked like a prey that could not escape.
He loosened his fingertips, and with a "whoosh", the arrow hit Ma Laoer's hind leg a hundred meters away.
Ma Laoer screamed and fell into the snow.
On the other side, Ma Laosan had already climbed up the hillside with his hands and feet.
He wanted to use the trees to avoid Xie Mingan's pursuit.
The followers behind Xie Mingan said, "Shaoqing, let us ride the horses to chase."
Unexpectedly, Xie Mingan bent the bow and put the arrow again.
By the way, he said coldly with thin lips: "No need, it's too slow."
Someone who can be caught with one arrow.
Why bother.
He squinted his eyes and watched Ma Laosan's figure appear and disappear in the woods.
Calculating the timing, Xie Mingan suddenly released his finger.
This time, the arrow hit Ma Laosan's heart on the back.
He didn't even have time to scream before he fell straight down.
Aunt Ma watched her two sons, one dead and one injured, screaming miserably.
She crawled to save her son.
Lifen wanted to run, but Aunt Ma turned around and grabbed her tightly.
She even cursed in a confused manner: "You loser, you are the one who killed your two brothers!"
Xie Mingan retracted the bow and arrow, staring at the mother and daughter fighting not far away with his cold eyes.
"Take them and the two Ma brothers back to the Dali Temple and put them in jail."
After thinking for a while, he said coldly: "By the way, notify Shen Ningning to come and claim the property taken away by the Ma family, whether it is hers and Xiangyun Village's property."
After speaking, Xie Mingan turned his horse's head neatly.
The lonely and cold figure, as the fierce horse galloped, embellished a touch of black jade-like coldness in the white snowfield.
When Shen Ningning received the news and rushed to the Dali Temple from the National Academy, she was greeted at the door by the chief clerk of the Dali Temple.
The chief clerk was over 40 years old, had a round face, and smiled quite flatteringly.
"Princess, your matter is in the heart of our Shaoqing Lord."
"This family of thieves fled with the stolen goods overnight. When they were found, they were already fifty miles away from the capital."
"But our Lord personally led people to chase the thieves. After running all night, he finally arrested them, Princess..."
Before he finished speaking, Shen Ningning had already walked into the Dali Temple with a calm face.
The chief clerk was puzzled.
Why did Princess Funing look not as happy as expected?
