The girl who wears fast

Chapter 99 Seventy Stepmother Let You Be (29)

After Gu Shichu dealt with Li Ergou and Fatty Cui, he re-locked the courtyard door, and just as he turned around, he saw Ji Mingtao standing in the shadow, with only his slender figure faintly visible.

Gu Shichu was taken aback, and said angrily, "Why are you standing here? You scared me. I've dealt with the matter, let's go back to sleep." He silently thought about whether his actions just now were too outrageous, whether it would be This made Ji Mingtao suspicious.

Hearing the wailing of the two people outside, Ji Mingtao said, "Is this considered settled? Leave them here, they will be discovered tomorrow. I will throw them into the village."

"Then it's up to you." Gu Shichu waved his hand, yawned and said, suddenly remembered something, he quickly grabbed him and said, "No, no, you can't go out of my house, let them see that it's not safe, we are alone Men and widows, they know what's going on at a glance, what if they use this to threaten us with revenge?"

Ji Mingtao looked at her steadfastly, and felt uncomfortable when she heard her words that seemed eager to get rid of him, but in the end he compromised: "Then I'll beat them unconscious before dragging them away, they won't know gone."

"Alright." Gu Shichu nodded, she would not object if he volunteered to do this kind of heavy physical work.

Ji Mingtao walked out, the two were still howling, and had no energy to pay attention to other things at all. Before they could see his appearance, Ji Mingtao stepped behind the two of them, and each of them knocked a stick. The two soon passed out.

He dragged Li Ergou and Cui Fatty back to the village respectively, and threw them into the haystacks on the side of the village road. It was enough to prevent them from freezing to death. As for whether they will bite Gu Shichu when they wake up tomorrow?

Ji Mingtao thought that if they were smart, they would naturally not do this, but even if they foolishly bit Gu Shichu, that's okay, there is no evidence, Gu Shichu can also refute that they saw her as helpless Counting on her...

Li Ergou and Fatty Cui probably didn't expect that their plan would go against the grain from the very beginning. Not only did they not even enter Gu Shichu's courtyard, but they also stole chickens and lost money. The excruciating pain that life is worse than death.

After pulling the two away, Ji Mingtao went back to Gu Shichu's house, and Gu Shichu asked in a daze, "Are you back?"

"Yeah." Ji Mingtao hugged the person into his arms, but he was very awake and didn't feel sleepy at all. He thought of what happened tonight, and knew that the money and food that Gu Shichu received had aroused the eyes of others, but she also There is no family, that's why Li Ergou and Cui Fatzi want to take her down.

What he is most worried about now is that the people who are eyeing Gu Shichu may not only be Li Ergou and Cui Fatty, but there may be other people, but they have not had time to make a move.

How can he help Gu Shichu scare away those evil-minded people?Ji Mingtao wrinkled and thought in annoyance, otherwise, he would have lived here and guarded her?
Thinking of this, Ji Mingtao felt hot in his heart, but then he remembered what Gu Shichu had prevented him from appearing in front of people, and the moment the heat rose, it suddenly turned cold again.

Gu Shichu didn't know the various complicated thoughts of the man beside her, she slept very soundly, even if someone wanted to climb the wall to come in and cheat on her tonight, it couldn't stop her from sleeping soundly, her heart was big enough.

Early the next morning, the people in the center of the village were woken up by the wailing and groaning sounds from the haystack. When they went to look, they found Li Ergou and Cui Fatty curled up and rolling on the haystack , In this cold day, he broke out in a cold sweat, with a lot of grass clippings on him, and he was in a mess.

"Oh! What are you two doing?" Guan Wusao, who was the first to spot the two, asked them dumbfounded.

Li Ergou and Cui Fatty were tortured so badly by the severe pain that they couldn't bear to live. How could they hear the question of Jinguan Fifth Sister-in-law?Naturally, there was no answer.

Other villagers also gathered around at this time. Seeing the appearance of these two people, if they hadn't seen that they were well dressed, the villagers would have thought that they drilled the haystack to do that kind of "immoral" thing.

Others asked the two of them a few more questions, but they didn't answer, so someone suggested that someone find their family members, but Li Ergou had no family members, so the team leader came to ask questions, but only a few young people He was carried back to his home, while Fatty Cui was carried back by his family.

The village doctor was hurriedly invited to treat the two of them. However, except for Fatty Cui who was pierced with broken glass on both palms, there was only a small piece of red on their arms, and everything else was fine. They kept talking about the pain, and it was the pain caused by being touched by a leaf, so the village doctor quickly prescribed medicine to relieve the pain.

The village doctor asked them what kind of leaves were so powerful. They described them for a long time, and there were several kinds of leaves that sounded similar, but those kinds of leaves were fine after touching them, so the village doctor became angry, thinking that they were talking nonsense. Have you ever touched a leaf that hurt like this?If so, how come no one else in the village has encountered it?

The two dared not tell that Gu Shichu had found the leaf, so they could only beg the village doctor to give them painkillers.At this time, medicines are very scarce and precious, especially Western medicines, and their illnesses are inexplicable, and the village doctors dare not prescribe them casually, so they only prescribed some traditional Chinese medicines for them to try. .

Of course it doesn’t work, the severe pain caused by the leaves of the golden bark tree, even after 40 years, there is no specific medicine to cure it, it can only make people survive, and it will be fine.

Gu Shichu and Ji Mingtao paid a little attention to Li Ergou and Cui Fatty's follow-up, and they were relieved not to hear that they were groping Gu Shichu. It seems that these two people still know the severity and would rather bear the pain, I don't want to go to jail either.

Because of the strange pain of these two people, it also caused a lot of discussion in the village.In this winter, everyone is relatively free, so from time to time, they use the affairs of Li Ergou and Cui Fatty as a pastime after dinner:
"Have you heard that Li Ergou and Cui Fatty got a strange disease, and they said it was a pain in their bodies, and no medicine would help, and they were so painful that they banged their heads against the wall."

"Didn't it hurt if you were allergic to a certain kind of leaf?"

"What kind of leaf does it hurt so much? Ask them and they can't tell! If there is such a leaf, how come so many people in our village have never touched it? They must be lying! I don't know what they did. That's how it happened!" The aunt said confidently.

"Could it be bewitched? Wasn't they on the haystack when they were discovered? They must have come out in the middle of the night to do bad things and bumped into something they shouldn't mess with..." Someone lowered his voice and said mysteriously .

"Bah! What kind of evil? You are not afraid of death and want to engage in feudal superstition?" Another person hurriedly stopped her.
