After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Su Xiaomu knew this kind of grass. After getting permission from the county magistrate, she called a few head catchers to help her make smoke.

These are small and not complicated to make, so it didn't take long for Su Xiaomu to prepare all the mist.

The thieves live in the thatched huts halfway up the mountain. These thatched huts are very dilapidated. If Gu Ruonan hadn't guaranteed that the thieves were here, Su Xiaomu and the others really wouldn't believe that there are so many thieves crowded into such a few small houses. inside the house.

But the head catcher went to check first, and after confirming that there was no problem, he blew into the room with the smoke made by Su Xiaomu.

Gu Jingcheng has always been very close to Su Xiaomu, and he pretended to protect Su Xiaomu the whole time.

Maybe it was late at night, and the thieves were all sound asleep after smelling the smoke. Su Xiaomu, Gu Jingcheng and the magistrate squatted at the door for a long time, and after making sure that nothing happened, they let the headhunters go in to arrest people.

The thieves were all tied tightly outside the thatched hut. Among the dozen or twenty of them, few of them had their eyes open at the moment, as if they were still trapped in a dream and couldn't extricate themselves.

Almost all those arrested were women, the magistrate asked Su Xiaomu to appease them, and everyone went back to the city after resting for a while.

After all, although there were a lot of people brought out this time, I didn't expect the thieves to be so easy to catch, and there were so many of them, so when the captors escorted them, they had to be in the best condition.

Su Xiaomu didn't have any complaints about the county magistrate's arrangement. After all, they were both women, so she had nothing to refuse such a simple job.

After entering the thatched cottage, Su Xiaomu looked at the numb and terrified faces of those women, and suddenly his mentality was not as relaxed as when he didn't come in just now.

Su Xiaomu and Gu Ruonan untied the girls one by one. The less timid girl was hugging her knees and drinking tears at this moment, while the more self-respecting girl wanted to bite her tongue and commit suicide the very first moment she escaped.

Su Xiaomu didn't know if biting her tongue to kill herself could really kill her, but she only knew that she saw those girls' mouths bleeding suddenly, and she was so frightened that she immediately stuffed handkerchiefs into their mouths.

Facing the crazy expressions of those girls, she sighed and said: "You are not afraid of death anymore, what else in this world can make you afraid?"

Su Xiaomu actually knew their worries and worries, and also knew their motives for committing suicide, but it was precisely because he knew that he was full of love and affection for these girls, and everything he said was to persuade them.

"Today, the magistrate of the county immediately sent someone to search for news after he knew that you were taken away. His purpose was to prevent the girls from having any trouble at the hands of these gangsters. Everyone is working hard for your lives. Why don't you cherish yourselves? "

Su Xiaomu persuaded them word by word, his face full of sincerity.

He took out the hemostatic medicine from his waist and handed it to Gu Ruonan, asking her to stuff it into the mouths of those women who bit their tongues and committed suicide.

"Don't say that nothing happened to everyone today, so what if something happened? Is reputation and chastity really more important than life? Women should abide by these four words and tie them tightly as shackles? If they don't, they should die , which law says?"

What Su Xiaomu hates the most is the feudal patriarchy's oppression of women. Although she has no ability to change anything, she still hopes that women in this world will be less oppressive and oppressive to themselves.

"Nothing is more important than everyone's life. If you feel that you have lost your chastity, that your reputation has been damaged, and you have no face to live in this world, just come to me. Others look down on you, but I look up to you. I am willing to give you something you want. I want a "way to survive", but in the end I still want to say that the most important thing in this world is to think highly of yourself, people have everything when they are alive, even ants steal their lives, not to mention human life is precious."

Su Xiaomu's words were resounding, the little girls in the thatched hut did not expect that her small body could tell them so many great truths.

The person who was struggling and refused to take the medicine obediently swallowed the hemostatic medicine.

They stopped talking about dying or living, and everyone sat in silence to recover their strength.

The magistrate and Gu Jingcheng were sitting outside, they were very close to the thatched cottage, so of course they heard everything Su Xiaomu said.

The magistrate shook his head, and did not hide his admiration for Su Xiaomu at all: "This lady Su is really different from ordinary women, she is a righteous person, what she said... Listen carefully, it is very reasonable."

"She was always good at thinking."

Although Gu Jingcheng replied to the county magistrate's words, he was extremely depressed at this moment.

What she said is probably her true thoughts. She always thinks that women should be self-reliant and self-reliant, so no matter how he treats her, no matter how hard he tries, he can't warm her heart. Therefore, she With him, I really never wanted to be together.

Even if the two of them were so close...

After the magistrate and the others rested in place for a while, everyone went down the mountain.

Su Xiaomu was worried about those women on the way back, so he stayed at the yamen the next day to watch over them and see how the magistrate made arrangements.

If they were from Fucheng, they would quietly send them home after asking about their identities the night before.

If they are not from Fucheng, ask them if they want to stay here. If so, the county magistrate will find a place for them to stay temporarily, and recommend a place where they can work, so that they can support themselves .

If they wanted to leave, they were given money so that they would not starve to death on the way.

Su Xiaomu is a person with a very after-sales spirit. For the girls in Fucheng, she arranged for the little beggars to keep an eye on them all the time. bamboo to help.

This kind of thing should be solved step by step. After all, people's thoughts are not formed in a day. Even if they want to be liberated, they have to come slowly.

The more progressive thoughts are instilled, and after a long time, they will feel that today's things are just trivial things, and they are not worth mentioning.

So the important thing is the moment, no one can die in vain.

All the magistrates of the county have arranged it well, and Su Xiaomu is also satisfied with the ending.

It's just that there is only the last woman left, and the question of her ownership makes everyone feel difficult.

In fact, it's not that she accidentally forgot about this girl, but that she has actually been with the thief for some time.

Unremarkable, with scars on his face, and a mute, he has been doing some sweeping work around the thieves.

You say arrange her to work, but she doesn't know anything.

"Why don't you just let her stay by my side. It just so happens that my dessert shop also lacks a sweeper. It's the Chinese New Year, and everyone needs to be harmonious."
