After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

"What exactly happened? Tell me the story again."

The middle-aged man pointed at Xu Qinghai who was standing in front of him. There was no expression on his face. Even though Yuxiu had been observing him secretly, she didn't find anything wrong.

"This……"

What else is there to say? Isn't it just that we have severed our relationship? So we will be two families from now on?

Yuxiu and Cui were surrounded by people holding knives. It looked like the disaster was quite serious, so the Xu family members of course tried to hide as far away as they could.

"The Lord City Lord asked you a question, but you didn't even know how to answer properly. What a shame to be hesitant like that!"

At the moment when Xu Qinghai hesitated, the knife in the bearded man's hand chopped Xu Qinghai's back. Fortunately, it was the back of the knife. Although he grimaced in pain, his life was not in any danger.

"Yes, yes, I'll tell you right away..."

Xu Qinghai only felt a burning pain in his back, and he didn't know if his bones were injured. However, he didn't dare to delay any longer at this time. He didn't dare to hide anything and told everything in detail.

"So, now you are really two families with nothing to do with each other?"

The city lord raised his eyelids and saw that the little girl who was surrounded was still calm and not afraid at all, and he couldn't help but smile.

Xu Qinghai, who was secretly observing him, happened to see the city lord smile. Although he didn't know the specific reason, he relaxed a little and immediately pointed at Village Chief Xu and his group and said:

"To answer your words, my words are true. I have never lied. If you don't believe me, you can ask the village chief and fellow villagers of Xujia Village. They can testify to my words."

The city lord immediately looked towards the people from Xujia Village, and sure enough, all of them nodded and admitted it.

"That's good..."

The city lord laughed mockingly, then waved his hand generously and said in a cold voice:

"Come here, invite these two to the city. As for those who have severed their ties with them, just... let them go..."

"I obey my orders!"

The officers and soldiers responded in unison and took Yuxiu and Cui into the city.

"I was really scared. Fortunately, I broke off the relationship with them..."

Everyone in the Xu family breathed a sigh of relief. Just as they were congratulating themselves for their good luck not to be involved in this matter, they heard a commotion coming from the outskirts of the crowd, and then a group of people came towards them.

"Show girl! Little sister!"

"Show girl!"

The shouting became closer and clearer, and even Yuxiu, who had been calm, was startled. Cui reacted before her and turned around and started shouting loudly.

"Mom! Big brother!"

Yuxiu looked towards the noisy crowd and saw several familiar faces. They were the people from the Cui family. They were all running towards her with anxious looks on their faces.

"Who are you guys?"

The city lord seemed to be interested and asked the soldiers blocking the way to move aside, allowing the Cui family to come to him smoothly.

"In reply to your Excellency's question, this woman is my biological sister, and the little girl is my niece. May I ask what crime they have committed? Please forgive them for being two girls who have never seen the world."

Uncle Cui was only three years older than Cui. He was not very tall and looked somewhat like Cui. When he saw these officers and soldiers, he was not afraid and saluted very calmly.

Standing behind him were two teenagers in their teens and an old lady in her fifties. Yuxiu learned from the original owner's memory that these were her two cousins ​​and grandmother.

"It's fine if you don't bother with them, but I do have a condition. Why don't you and your family go into the city with them and share the responsibility for any problems? Is that okay?"

The Lord Mayor was very straightforward. Uncle Cui looked a little painful and hesitant. He looked at his mother and the two sons behind him and asked tentatively:

"Women and children don't know what's going on, so it's better to let them go. I will bear all the blame..."

He was not afraid of death, but he couldn't bear to see his children and mother die.

"There's no room for bargaining with you!"

The city lord shouted loudly and his face immediately turned cold.

"I'll count to three, and you guys think it over carefully."

"one!"

"two!"

"We do!"

The Cui family members became anxious and all stepped forward and shouted in unison.

Yuxiu closed her eyes. She didn't know what tricks the city lord was playing. It seemed like he was testing people's hearts. However, they didn't know him and didn't know why he did this.

"Mother, elder brother, Brother Bo, Brother Wen..."

Cui was so moved that she started crying, and Old Lady Cui glared at her fiercely.

"You are so useless even at your age, not even as good as Xiu girl. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Although she was blaming him, tears were rolling down her eyes. When Cui saw this, she couldn't hold back her tears any more and they kept falling down.

"Alright, alright, there's nothing to cry about. I didn't say anything about what I'd do to you. Really..."

Seeing that the old lady also began to wipe her tears, the city lord actually looked a little embarrassed. He waved his hands randomly and shouted loudly.

"Please ask everyone to go back safely, and you will be responsible for accompanying them."

He said his last words to the bearded man, and then he rushed into the city with a group of soldiers.

"Everyone, please come in."

At this time, the crowd who came to watch the excitement had already been driven away by the officers and soldiers, especially the Xu family, who were slashed several times by the officers and soldiers with the backs of their knives. Xu Qinghai and Xu Qingjiang were beaten to the ground with their mouths full of blood, and they almost lost their front teeth.

Even the village chief Xu, who was brought in as a witness, was pushed by the officers and soldiers and staggered several times. Although he did not fall and bleed, he sprained his ankle in the panic and it seemed that he would not be able to walk for a short time.

Faced with the brutality of the officers and soldiers, the Xu family members all thought that Yuxiu and the others were probably in great danger. They were beaten like this even though they had done nothing wrong. The soldiers came specifically to arrest the mother and daughter, so how could they end up well?

However, unlike what the Xu family had expected, Yuxiu and her group were brought into the city by the bearded man and were settled in a small courtyard.

"Mom, Brother, didn't you set out two days earlier than us? How come you're only here now?"

As soon as she entered the yard, Cui excitedly grabbed the old lady's hand and asked impatiently.

Yuxiu also wanted to know about this, so she just followed behind and listened.

"You have the nerve to ask."

The old lady poked Cui's head in annoyance and scolded her:

"You are such a shameless father and mother, and you let my little girl suffer. When we heard the news, we immediately turned back and searched for you for two days but couldn't find you. Finally, we heard from others that you looked a bit like you, so we thought of coming to see you."
