Lin Wanxing looked at the people in the courtyard with a sharp gaze.

Mr. Song, let your guards come in as well.

Oh... yes yes!

"Little sister, why are you here?" Lin Minglei and Bai Yu came running over.

"Brother, there are some things I need to investigate."

"Princess, these people are here!" Lin Wanxing looked at the guards, all of them were strong and had dark faces.

"Were you the one chasing that beggar in the street yesterday?"

"Yes, my name is Da Zhuang!"

"Then can you introduce these brothers of yours? What kind of martial arts do they have?"

"Hehe, okay, we just have some strength, so we learn some common boxing techniques. My brother is called Yu Biao, he is very strong, most people can't beat him in arm wrestling. And this Dong Yong is the fastest runner, we all call him Flying Legs, he is also the most handsome guy here."

At this point, Mr. Song's concubines all looked at this strong young man with the best appearance and height with affection.

This scene happened to be seen by Aunt Liu who had just entered the room. She immediately lowered her head, holding a silk handkerchief, and approached Mr. Song, secretly glancing at the old man who knew nothing about it.

Lin Wanxing felt proud watching this man named Da Zhuang introducing his brothers. It seemed that he truly regarded these people as brothers.

"So how do you take turns as guards?"

Da Zhuang scratched his head and said, "I am a rough man. This is something my brothers and I discussed. There are eight of us, divided into upper and lower groups. During the day, there are four of us, and at night, there are four of them. Then the next day, we can just do the opposite."

Lin Wanxing looked at Dazhuang, pursed her lips and smiled, then nodded.

"Well, you guys stand aside for now!"

I watched as the servant came over with a man and a woman.

"Master Song, who are these two relatives of yours? Where are they from?"

"Oh, I am getting old and confused. This woman's name is Sang Qiao, the daughter of my cousin, and this boy's name is Chai Jiamu, he is 15 years old this year. They have a miserable life. Her husband died at home, and the clan wanted to take over the family property. She couldn't stay here anymore, so she came to me for help. She has suffered a lot along the way. This child is good, and he looks down-to-earth. I plan to keep him and let him study, become a shopkeeper or something, so that he won't have to worry about food and drink in the future."

Looking at the old man smiling like a chrysanthemum, he patted the black-clothed boy who was obviously not talkative.

The woman named Sang Qiao looked timid and didn't dare to look up. She was obviously a cowardly person.

Lin Wanxing approached the woman and said, "Raise your head!"

The woman shuddered with fear and stepped back. The young man in the blue cloth shirt protected his mother and stared at Lin Wanxing with vigilant and fierce eyes.

Looking at the young man's immature and restless look with his teeth clenched, Lin Wanxing smiled.

The bright smile made the glaring boy shy and hide away, turning his head to look the other way, but he refused to move away.

Lin Wanxing stared at the woman, perhaps feeling that she couldn't hide like this, so she pulled away the boy's outstretched arm.

"Mu'er, Mom is fine. We have been through a lot along the way."

"mother..."

"The young man knelt down with a thud and kowtowed to Lin Wanxing!" This stunned her.

The woman in the blue headscarf also slowly knelt down.

"Miss, we are forced to do this..." the woman hadn't finished her words.

"Just stop," the young man interrupted hurriedly.

"No, I killed him. He deserves to die! This has nothing to do with my mother! If you want to arrest someone, arrest me. I am the only one who did this."

The young man who looks ready to die is quite responsible.

"Oh, then what did you do wrong? Tell me the truth and I'll see if it's justifiable."

The young man looked at Lin Wanxing blankly and said stupidly: "You don't know what happened, aren't you here to arrest us?"

Lin Wanxing also shook his head helplessly and said, "Really not, but since you said you killed someone, how did you kill him? Tell me, if that person deserves to die, I will never stop you."

The dumbfounded boy was instantly deflated and fell to the ground.

The woman wiped her tears and said, "I'll tell you, it's all because of me. His father's name is Chai Dashi. He likes to drink and gamble. I'm in charge of everything at home and outside. He beats me whenever he's unhappy. It's almost every day. He beats me a little every two days and a hard beating every three days. Even when I was pregnant, I couldn't escape. My mother-in-law also often scolds me and finds fault with me. I live worse than pigs and dogs in that family."

Everyone listened to the woman's crying and showed sympathy.

"Once his father didn't come home, and he came back at noon the next day covered in wounds. My mother-in-law said it was all my fault, and she grabbed my hair and slapped me in the face. I couldn't stand it, so I pushed her, and she pushed me onto the farm equipment next to her, and the iron sled pierced her shoulder, and the blood kept flowing. I was terrified, and hurriedly asked Muer to find a doctor."

"I was afraid, too. I was afraid that my husband would beat me to death. But the next afternoon, my husband brought a lame, squinting man to my house and took a look at me."

"I thought something was wrong, but before I even walked in I heard the man hold up two fingers, and my man held up five fingers."

"I watched the two of them bargaining. It turned out that my husband wanted to sell me to this man as a wife. Isn't this asking me to die?

So I got furious and rushed over with the hoe next to me, and actually scared the lame man away, but his father was so angry that he threw the hoe out of my hand and started grabbing my hair and punching me several times. I couldn't hear the sound from the beating, but he actually took off my clothes and cursed at me.

"Even if I ask you to be a slut, you have to do it. Beat me and humiliate me at the same time."

"I really can't face anyone. There are also those idle guys in the village watching me. In the broad daylight, in the yard, my face is covered in blood, and they are riding on me."

"He, he also told the villagers that whoever wanted to go up would pay 20 cents per time."

"I begged him not to let Mu'er see me, and begged him to give me a chance to live, but he didn't listen."

"I really have no way out... wuwuwuwu!"

Everyone sighed after hearing this. This woman had such a miserable life. Some maids and a concubine were already wiping away tears.

The woman cried bitterly, then calmed down and said, "My son came back from the mountain and saw the scene. He was so angry that his eyes turned red. He pulled out a machete and chopped at his father. Blood spurted out immediately."

"My son was like a madman. He confronted the people in the village who wanted to capture us, but they were afraid of the knife in his hand, so he took me and ran into the mountains."

"I also feel like I'm a burden, and Mu'er left me behind and ran away on his own."

"But this kid is stubborn. We were chased by our tribesmen and had nowhere to go. Then I remembered what my mother said. She has a nephew who is quite capable and wealthy. So I thought of coming here to find a way to survive."

"Chai Jiamu, do you have anything to add?" After listening to the woman's crying, Lin Wanxing looked at the young man's determined eyes.

"No, no, I was the one who hacked him to death. He deserved to die for humiliating my mother. And those bastard villagers who were watching the fun not only did not stop it, but even wanted to do it. So they are all bastards." The young man cursed with gritted teeth.

Lin Wanxing sighed, that man really deserved to die, you did nothing wrong, no one could tolerate such a thing.

"Did you just cut once with the machete or did you just stab once?"

The young man was stunned and raised his hand to gesture.

"Get up, both of you and your mother are innocent!"

"You only injured him, but didn't kill him. If that person died, it should have nothing to do with you!"

After listening to Lin Wanxing's words, the boy looked at his mother in disbelief, and then asked in surprise: "Really?"

"Yes! But what did you hide on your escape?"

Lin Wanxing stared at the young man with burning eyes.

"I... We just accidentally fell into a cave. It was pitch black and we couldn't see anything."

The boy hesitated but still told his mother some of the unexpected things that happened along the way. In the middle, he glanced at his mother. He didn't know why his mother wanted to hide it. Maybe she just forgot to tell him.

"How did you get out of the cave?"

"I don't remember anything. I broke my leg and passed out from the pain. When I woke up again, I was already on a bullock cart driven by a kind-hearted person!"

Lin Wanxing looked at the boy and said, "Don't you find it strange?"

"I didn't, I didn't." The boy looked at his mother again in panic.

At this moment, Lin Wanxing pulled the boy over and pasted a talisman on him. He immediately became unable to move and was pushed to Lin Minglei behind him: "Brother, keep an eye on him!"

It happened in a flash. In the blink of an eye, the woman's eyes turned bloodshot, her mouth split to her ears, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and she leaped into the air and pounced on Lin Wanxing.

"mother........"
