Cheng Qiao suddenly spoke loudly. Her voice was so loud and clear that it made the dejected Zhao Xiaobao raise his head suddenly, and a light appeared in his eyes.
Cheng Qiao made a gesture to Zhao Xiaobao, indicating that she would take care of it. Zhao Xiaobao burst into tears instantly and swore in his heart, Cheng Qiao, if you help my parents, you will be my, Zhao Xiaobao's benefactor in this life.
Li Huan was nearly scared to death by Cheng Qiao. When the villagers saw these people, they didn't even have time to hide, but Cheng Qiao actually wanted to bump into them. Could it be that pregnancy really makes people stupid for three years
"Li Huan, believe me, once these people regain their freedom, they will reach heights you can't imagine, so we must open our eyes and broaden our horizons."
"But... you... eh..."
"Don't worry, we will help you secretly. Remember to drag Uncle Niu into the water."
The two of them were chatting away, and the ox cart soon arrived at the post office. Li Huan went to park the ox cart, and Cheng Qiao entered the post office and went directly to collect the remittance.
When the staff saw such a large sum of money, they couldn't help but frown, but they didn't ask too many questions. Since the money could be remitted, there must be no problem with its source.
But he was worried about Cheng Qiao's safety. During this period, there were always some unscrupulous people waiting in the post office. They had already reported to the police, but the person had not committed any crime, so they could not arrest him without reason.
He whispered to Cheng Qiao if she wanted to go to the bank next door to open an account so that they could transfer the money directly to the bank, so that she wouldn't have to carry so much money with her when she went out.
Cheng Qiao shook her head. She would have many places to spend money in the future, and she didn't need to go to the bank again and again. Besides, her space was safer than a bank.
Pointing in the direction of the door, the staff saw that it was a man coming in and knew that he was not single, so he took out the money with confidence and handed it to Li Huan.
It was the first time in Li Huan's life that he saw so much money. His hands were shaking a little, but he was also a worldly-wise person. He calmly threw the money into a homemade cotton bag, closed the bag and tied it around his body, then went to make a phone call with Cheng Qiao.
The call was connected quickly. Yang Mei also answered the call first, but she did not transfer the call to Cheng Qiao. Instead, she asked her to wait for a letter because Yang Mei also wrote her a letter.
"Aunt Yang, what happened to my dad?"
"Cheng Qiao, it's hard to tell over the phone. Don't worry. You'll know when you see the letter."
"Aunt Yang, can you reveal a little bit first? Hello, hello, Aunt Yang... Hello..."
Hearing the "beep, beep, beep" sound on the phone, Cheng Qiao knew that the other party had hung up. Her good mood disappeared in an instant. Could something have happened to her father? But her father was the deputy director of the factory, so what could have happened
When Li Huan saw Cheng Qiao staggering, he was so scared that he quickly reached out to hug her, and carefully helped Cheng Qiao sit down. It took a while for Cheng Qiao to come back to her senses.
"Qiao, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Cheng Qiao shook her head, took Li Huan's hand and stood up. Li Huan worriedly took Cheng Qiao's arm and walked out, but as soon as they walked outside, they noticed several unfriendly gazes.
"What a coincidence. We need to find a place to hide the money. We are being targeted."
Cheng Qiao's eyes narrowed. This money was his parents' life savings, how could they let someone snatch it away? The two of them walked to the side of the ox cart, and using the cover of a blanket, they threw the money bag into the space.
When Li Huan saw that the purse was gone, he knew that she had hidden the money and felt much more relaxed. However, he was also worried about the baby in Cheng Qiao's belly, so he thought about it and decided to go home first.
Two people were standing on the small dirt road. Li Huan saw a flash of light in the sunlight and thought something was wrong.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way. I won't care if you get hit by a bull."
Li Huan shouted loudly, and the bull whip flew in the air a few times, making a sound of air shaking, trying to scare away the two people standing in the middle of the road.
Old Niu had been trained by Uncle Niu so well that he naturally stopped when he saw people. When Li Huan saw Old Niu stop, he could only sigh helplessly and speak to Cheng Qiao in a low voice.
"Coincidentally, the situation is not good. You should find a way to hide secretly in the magic weapon and don't come out."
"I don't"
"Be good and listen. You are still pregnant and your master said that the fetus is unstable."
Cheng Qiao thought about it and slowly got off the ox cart. Li Huan also got off the ox cart. Seeing Cheng Qiao running to the back of the ox cart, he walked towards the two men.
"You are here to collect the toll."
Li Huan saw that one of the men was carrying a machete on his shoulder, and he understood what was going on. He lamented that robbers are so fast nowadays.
"Hey, it's almost the end of the year, and the brothers are short of money. I heard that you made a lot of money, how about giving some to the brothers to spend."
The man carrying the machete answered leisurely, shaking one leg.
"It's really a robbery. Do you know that if you are caught, you will have to eat peanuts. Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm afraid. Of course I'm afraid. But I'm almost starving to death. What's the point of being afraid?"
"If you guys just don't have money for food, I will give you some money for food. If you want to rob all my money, let's see which fist is harder, yours or mine."
"It seems like he won't cry until he sees the coffin. That woman is your wife, right? When we're done, you can sell her off. She looks pretty delicate and tender, so she should be able to fetch some money."
Li Huan's originally calm expression suddenly darkened, and he whipped the foul-mouthed man with the bullwhip in his hand without thinking.
"ah… "
The man carrying the machete didn't expect Li Huan to attack him without saying a word. Although he tried to block it with his hand, his arm was still hit and he screamed in pain.
He shouted angrily, swung the machete and rushed towards Li Huan, chopping down at his neck, vowing to chop off Li Huan's head.
Li Huan rolled to the ground cleverly and avoided the attack, but unfortunately one punch was no match for four hands. When Li Huan was about to stand up, another man rushed over and punched Li Huan.
Li Huan was caught off guard and was punched hard in the stomach, almost knocking out his breakfast. He was unable to stand up for a while.
The man with the machete took one look and walked towards where Cheng Qiao was standing with a sinister smile. The closer he got to Cheng Qiao, the more beautiful she seemed to him.
"You are really pretty, young lady. Why don't you follow me and enjoy the good life instead of living a hard life with this poor guy?"
Cheng Qiao didn't say anything, but was nervously thinking about how to escape.
"Don't be nervous. Look, those are our brothers' bicycles. If you come with me, I'll give you a bicycle."
When Li Huan saw the man carrying a machete walking towards Cheng Qiao, he took a deep breath in a hurry, jumped up suddenly, and wanted to rush over to protect Cheng Qiao.
