However, when she thought about the current situation, she felt relieved that the Wang family was courting death as they were going against the county government.

She was not afraid of them being evil, but afraid that the other party would still be cautious.

“You’re really bold, kid.” Madam Qian looked at Ye Muyu and listened to her talk about what happened after she was kidnapped. She could not help but sigh.

Ye Muyu actually knew a little self-defense. Girls should always protect themselves outside, but if she was surrounded, her self-defense skills were not very useful.

Therefore, it was necessary to prepare some self-defense items.

Ye Muyu still felt that the plot development had deviated from her expectations. How did she, a scholar’s wife, end up offending a random person and almost lose her life?

It could be seen that in this day and age, status also meant that one’s ability to survive was strong.

Ye Muyu instantly envied the Xie family and had a goal in mind to become stronger.

At the moment, she could only stay at the Xie residence with her children for the sake of their safety. However, the Xie family was not affected. The Xie family knew that Landlord Wang’s family had those skilled bandits, but they were still not worried. It was obvious that they had confidence and power.

This was the foundation of the Xie family. The Chu family would not be able to achieve this in a short period of time, but someone must take the initiative to improve the family.

“Are we going to keep staying at the Xie residence? Won’t our family be worried about us?” Madam Liu had wanted to leave for a long time, but she was not sure if it was safe. Naturally, she would not risk her life.

She had been staying until now, and she was a little flustered.

Ye Muyu comforted her, “Mother, I’ve already called someone back to explain the situation. I’ve considered this before. Father and the others must have received the news. Don’t worry.”

“That’s good. At least the news is delivered.”

“Oh, where’s Ah Xing?” Madam Qian patted her head, only then did she remember that her youngest son had not returned yet.

“He didn’t come with us?” Ye Muyu was stunned.

“No, he went to look for you four hours ago. I thought he went to the bookstore later, so I didn’t ask much.”

“Isn’t this child usually quite smart? Why can’t we even find him now?”

“Fifth Aunt, don’t be anxious. I’ll ask Han Zhuang to look for someone.” Ye Muyu got up and went to look for Han Zhuang.

Liu Hai and Han Zhuang followed her to the Xie family’s house.

Now that someone was missing at home, it was necessary to send someone to look for him.

Han Zhuang left Liu Hai behind and went to look for Chu Xing.

Although Madam Qian was a little worried, she was still at ease with her son.

Even if they could not find her, he would definitely be able to protect himself. Moreover, someone had already gone to look for him. Although she was worried, she did not show it. Instead, she comforted Ye Muyu and Madam Liu not to worry.

Madam Liu felt a little guilty. “If I had known earlier, I would have stopped Ah Xing. No matter what, Third Brother’s wife has someone protecting her, but Ah

Xing is alone.”

“Third sister-in-law, don’t say that. Muyu is a woman. Han Zhuang and the others were paid to be here. They’re not our family. Even if it’s the other women in the family, Ah Xing should go find them, let alone Muyu. It’s just like how you wouldn’t just stand by and watch if something happened to a lady in my family.” Madam Qian was experienced in life, so she valued this point. To a country bumpkin, having clansmen to rely on was important. It was not strange for Madam Qian to say this. After all, it was a deep-rooted thought.

“No matter what, we have implicated you this time.” Madam Liu patted her hand lightly.

“What are you talking about? We’re family.” Madam Qian had gained a lot of Imowledge this time. She imagined how it would be if her family did not work hard and accidentally offended a wealthy merchant. If that were to happen, they would not even be able to maintain a stable life. She felt a deep sense of crisis in her heart and placed more importance on Chu Heng’s imperial examination..
