Chapter 308: Marrying the Mountain God 30
Lian Yunshen also heard Fang's scolding coming from the east room of the Gu family. It might be that Gu Jiande and his wife happened to mention Gu Li during their conversation at night, and Fang scolded a few words and then fell silent.
Lian Yunshen stared at Gu Li's dark face, and his heart ached. "Xiao Li'er, they won't hurt you again! I will always be by your side."
Gu Li was no longer afraid of the cruel couple. She was just reminded of many bad memories from the past and felt angry.
But she didn't want to disappoint Lian Yunshen's love for her, so she smiled at him, "Yeah. They won't hurt me again!"
Under the hazy moonlight, Gu Li's rosy little face replaced her previous sad and pitiful look, becoming more lively and powerful.
Lian Yunshen thought that his little Li'er might not need the protection of others, she could protect herself.
Gu Li did what he had never been able to do.
I felt a little disappointed, but it was quickly replaced by great joy.
She married him, and he can always be with her in the future!
He leaned over and approached Gu Li, his brows relaxed, and asked Gu Li in a playful tone of childhood, "Do you want to teach them a lesson?"
Gu Li moved her fingers holding the box. To be honest, this was exactly what she meant.
But I shouldn't do this kind of thing with Lian Yunshen.
Gu Li shook her head. "Brother Yunshen, there's no need to dirty your hands when dealing with people like them. Your hands are supposed to hold the Qiankun Brush. They're not worth it!"
Lianyunshen: -----
How saintly does he seem in Xiao Li'er's eyes!
But he is not!
Before coming, he had put a fire starter in his arms, just to vent his anger for Gu Li.
Although a fire starter would not burn down the Gu family’s house, it would definitely destroy the thatched house where Gu Li lived.
However, Gu Li didn't want him to do this, so he had to give up.
The crescent moon passed through the clouds, illuminating the mountain village a little more.
Gu Li held the silver in one hand and the man in the other, and happily headed home with her greatest support.
Gu Li and Lian Yunshen are just like every other couple who have just fallen in love. As long as they can be together, they feel like there is wind under their feet. No matter how far they have to go, they just hope that there is no end in front of them and they can keep going like this forever.
Before reaching Taohua Village, Gu Li saw a flickering fire in the village from afar.
Faintly, I could hear people talking.
"Village chief, are they still looking for the child?" Gu Li said to herself.
A four-year-old child could not walk far by himself. The village chief and his men searched for the child for three days and two nights but could not find him. They were afraid that the child was in great danger.
"It looks like something is wrong." Lian Yunshen pulled Gu Li to the side. "The fire is moving too fast. It doesn't look like it's looking for someone!"
Gu Li was stunned, and then looked towards the village, and found that in just a moment, the fire was almost reaching the entrance of the village.
Gu Li hugged the box tightly in her arms and hid in the shadows.
The two of them were wandering outside in the middle of the night, holding a considerable amount of silver in their hands. It would be difficult to explain if they were caught by the villagers.
The man holding the torch quickly ran out of the village and headed south.
Lian Yunshen pulled Gu Li out from behind the big rock and looked at the direction where the torch was going away. "That's Uncle Aniu from the village. His family is the closest to Qi Dashan's family!"
Gu Li didn't recognize the man, but her intuition told her that something must have happened to Tang Lan'er again.
Because more and more houses in the village turned on their lights.
Gu Li and Lian Yunshen returned home and asked Lian Yunshen to hide the box containing the silver.
The two of them rustled around in the room for a while but failed to wake up Lian's mother. It seemed that Lian's mother was extremely tired recently.
I forced myself to stay awake until my son came back, and then I slept soundly and peacefully.
The two of them closed the door quietly and walked towards the village hand in hand.
When passing by the village chief's house, Gu Li suddenly thought of the child's shoe that the village chief found outside the woods.
The village chief went home and asked, and found out that the cloth shoe did not belong to his grandson, so whose was it?
In those days, every household was short of food and clothing, and children were active, which wasted shoes and fabric. Almost all the children in the village ran around in straw sandals.
Even if someone could afford cloth shoes, they wouldn't just throw their shoes by the woods.
The village chief's house was pitch dark and no sound could be heard.
"Uncle Village Chief? Aunt Hongyun?"
Gu Li shouted several times but got no response. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, a dull sound of something hitting the ground suddenly came from the main house.
Gu Li and Lian Yunshen looked at each other, and Lian Yunshen pulled Gu Li back, "You stay here, I'll go in and take a look!"
The door to the main room of the village chief's house was not closed. It opened with a push and Lian Yunshen walked in.
Gu Li looked around and saw a single cloth shoe discarded on the ground under the eaves.
"Ali, come in for a moment!"
Just as Gu Li picked up the cloth shoes on the ground, Lian Yunshen's voice came from the inner room.
"coming!"
When Gu Li entered, she saw Lian Yunshen standing at the door, holding an oil lamp in his hand, facing inside.
Gu Li moved closer and followed his line of sight to see a slightly shaking shadow on the ground.
"Ali, go and help Aunt Hongyun up!" Lian Yunshen was a man, and it was already very rude of him to enter someone else's bedroom, so only Ali could do the job of helping her up.
Is that Aunt Hongyun?
Gu Li widened her eyes, and when she adjusted to the light in the room, she saw the woman on the ground shaking slightly with a crooked mouth and squinting eyes, saliva hanging from the corners of her mouth, and tears in the corners of her eyes.
"Auntie, what's wrong with you? Where's the village chief?"
When Aunt Hongyun mentioned the village chief, she trembled even more violently.
It was all because of that stubborn old man who brought that evil Tang Lan'er home to live with us, and a happy family was broken up like that.
The younger son died unjustly, the older son was sent to prison, the daughter-in-law took the older grandson back to her parents' home, and the whereabouts of the younger grandson is still unknown.
She fainted from crying several times, and when she woke up, she couldn't even speak. She lay on the bed like a living dead, unable to move.
How could she have a stroke when she was so young?
She hates it.
Gu Li helped the village head's wife back to bed, covered her with a blanket, and comforted her: "Auntie, you have to relax. This family still needs you to take care of it. Auntie, Zhuzi was probably not killed by Shitou. Qi Shitou will be released sooner or later."
"Mmmmm----"
Gu Li couldn't explain it clearly now, but in order to let a mother live, she still said: "Just like Qi Dashan was not killed by Brother Yunshen, Zhuzi was not killed by Qi Shitou. Such a cruel method is not something a human can do. Auntie, do you understand what I mean!"
The village chief's wife's hands were shaking, she blinked repeatedly, and nodded slightly.
