Chapter 127
The person who sent the letter was a neighbor of the Zhao family in Yuanshan Village. After Zhao Chen's family married to the Zhao family, the original Luo Jinxiu brought her two younger siblings to do housework. Life was hard. This neighbor sometimes felt uncomfortable and would help Doing a little favor or giving them something to eat, the relationship is pretty good. When Luo Jinxiu sends things to Jinshu Jinyu, she will also bring a box or two of pastries to the family as a gift. When she sees someone coming, she immediately recognizes them. There was a thump in my heart, and I had a bad premonition.

This person would not come here to look for her for no reason, unless something happened to Jinshu Jinyu!
Luo Jinxiu was anxious, but the other party came even more urgently, running all the way from Yuanshan Village to speak out of breath, Yun Kou hurried to bring tea, and Steward Ji helped him carry it.

Luo Jinxiu saw that the other party was panting heavily but was speechless for a long time, so she could only patiently wait for the other party to gulp down a whole cup of tea and recover a little.

"What happened? Did Jinshu Jinyu encounter any trouble?"

The neighbor uncle's face was still a little pale, but he didn't delay too much. He casually wiped the tea from his mouth and said quickly, "They are indeed in trouble, but in the end it's because of Zhao Wancai's useless younger brother Zhao Wanfu."

Zhao Wanfu is usually idle, and he is also very fond of gambling. Before Zhao Chenshi married Zhao Wancai, he asked his brother for money. The Zhao family has never been rich, and most of them were defeated by him. Quitting gambling didn't work, but made it worse.

No, this time Zhao Wanfu went to the gambling house in the county again, and unlike before when he lost a few taels of silver, he actually directly owed a huge debt of hundreds of taels of silver to the gambling shop!
This is amazing, he can't afford to pay back so much money after selling it!So this guy actually donated his luggage and ran away!
The people from the gambling shop found Zhao Wanfu's house and searched everywhere, but they couldn't find him, and there was nothing valuable to repay the debt. They were so angry that they smashed everything, and then they heard that he had an older brother, so they found him Zhao Wancai's family went to collect the debt.

"How can Zhao Wancai have so much money to give to the people in the gambling house? He insisted on taking out a few taels of silver from his family and giving them to them, and asked them to give him some time to find his brother, but the people in the gambling house did not agree at all. Zhao Wancai snatched everything that could be stolen from Zhao Wancai's house, and even beat Zhao Wancai to death. Before I came, the village had already hired a doctor. I don't know how the situation is now. I'm afraid this matter is not over yet. Ye Da, I was worried that it would be bad if the people in the gambling shop attacked your younger siblings, so I thought of coming to tell you and see if you can help."

As for whether to help Zhao Wanfu pay off his debts, or how to protect Jinshu Jinyu, it all depends on what Luo Jinxiu means.

It is not easy for the neighbors to be willing to make such a trip to report the news.

Luo Jinxiu also hates Zhao Wanfu who has implicated Jinshu Jinyu to the extreme, and is even more worried that the people in the gambling shop will really do something to Jinshu Jinyu. Yes, even in modern times, similar things happen, let alone here.

She will never allow anyone to touch her younger siblings!
"Jing Hao!"

Yun Jinghao also had a gloomy face at this time, and Luo Jinxiu knew what to do without telling him, and said directly: "Let's go to Yuanshan Village now!"

Luo Jinxiu said to the neighbor uncle: "You are tired after running all the way, take a break for a while before going back, Jing Hao and I will go and see the situation first."

After finishing speaking, the two of them gave Steward Ji a wink and told him to take care of the house, and then they went straight out of the main room and walked out of the courtyard. Yun Fan was also very clever, and trotted all the way to help them get the horse out of the house.

The situation was urgent, the speed of making a carriage was too slow, and Luo Jinxiu was not good at riding a horse, so Yun Jinghao pulled Luo Jinxiu onto a horse, and hurried all the way to Yuanshan Village.

Counting from when Xu Shi and others arrived in Shangxi Village, she did not pay much attention to the situation of her natal family for a while, and her younger siblings only sent some things, including the new gadgets from the capital that Xu Shi and the others brought over when they came.

The people from the Duke's Mansion stayed in the village for a long time and made a lot of noise. Zhao Chen didn't hear any news for no reason. She was already prepared for the other party to come and try to take advantage of it. Who would Zeng thought that there was no movement all the time, but what happened today happened instead.

To say that her understanding of Zhao Chen's family is indeed correct. The latter heard that Yun Jinghao's family came to take advantage of the terrific guests, but Luo Jinxiu's previous warnings to her also had an effect, making Zhao Mrs. Chen felt a little apprehensive and fearful, and it just so happened that Zhao Wanfu also came to the house because of some gambling debts at that time, and her internal problems had already made her overwhelmed, she couldn't take care of herself, how could she find time to come to Shangxi Village?

Later, I heard people say that the Yun family was beaten, and they still owed hundreds of taels of foreign debt. I didn't know when they would be able to pay it off. To trouble her and Zhao Wancai, he simply pretended to be quail farts and didn't dare to let out a single one.

She probably would not have thought that Zhao Wanfu's commotion was so loud that Luo Jinxiu was alarmed.

The distance between the two villages is not too fast, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour for the fast horse to go there.

The village was in turmoil because people from the gambling house came to make trouble. Suddenly, they were shocked when they saw a horse galloping towards them. They thought it was the people from the gambling house. ?The person immediately seemed to be Zhao Chen's eldest daughter Luo Jinxiu who married out?

Thinking about what happened to the Zhao family, the villagers knew that this was news from Shangxi Village!Soon, the villagers who reacted hurriedly followed to watch the excitement.

As for the Zhao family, a circle of people had already gathered to surround the yard. They didn't turn their heads until they heard the sound of horseshoes coming from outside.

Yun Jinghao dismounted with Luo Jinxiu in his arms and walked towards the yard. Someone who recognized them hurriedly gave way and shouted into the room, "Jinxiu and the others are here!"

"Hurry up and go in and see Zhao Wancai, he was beaten with blood all over his face, and the doctor is treating him now!"

Luo Jinxiu didn't pay attention to the shouts of the villagers at all. Even if she wanted to pay attention, she would pay attention to Jinshu Jinyu. She had no feelings at all and even thought about her original stepfather.

The small house of the Zhao family was also crowded with people, including the head of Yuanshan Village, a few older elders who seemed to be somewhat related to the Zhao family, and an elder of the Luo family.

The first thing Luo Jinxiu did when he entered the door was Zhao Jinshu and Jinyu, and soon he saw the two brothers and sisters sitting huddled together in the corner, and the two also saw her for the first time. , followed by red eyes and quickly rushed towards her.

"elder sister--!"

Luo Jinxiu held the two children in her arms, patted their heads, and asked with concern: "Don't be afraid, I'm here, it's okay, no one can hurt you, have you been injured before?"

Jinyu's little face turned pale with fright, and the tears she had been holding back before seeing Luo Jinxiu couldn't help but 'swish', and she hugged her waist tightly and cried: "Those people come in Beating and smashing, it scared people to death, my brother was beaten several times by those people in order to protect me."

"What!?" Luo Jinxiu, who was relieved to see them looking very energetic, immediately changed his face, and raised his head, which was lowered, to have a look. Sure enough, he saw two bruises on the corners of his mouth and cheeks. Green, her lips were bitten and bleeding.

"Those bastards!" Luo Jinxiu gritted her teeth angrily, her eyes were full of fierceness.

Damn thing, it even hits a child, it's inhumane!
"Where is Mrs. Zhao Chen! She is a mother, so she just watched you get beaten!?" She didn't see the woman since she entered the door. Did she hide in that corner and dare not see her, or was she captured by the gambling shop? ?
Luo Jinyu choked and said, "Mom, I don't know where I went."

Luo Jinxiu's face became even uglier. What do you mean you don't know where you went?Could it be possible for a living person to disappear?

At this time, the elder from the Luo family in the room explained: "Mr. Zhao and Chen are indeed missing. When we received the news, only Zhao Wancai was beaten unconscious in the Zhao family. The two children hid in the corner and shivered." Trembling, I didn't see Mrs. Zhao Chen."

Luo Jinshu, who had been silent since the village chief and others heard the news, suddenly said, "She ran away."

"What?" Everyone in the room was stunned at the same time, but Luo Jinxiu realized Luo Jinshu's meaning in a blink of an eye, narrowed her eyes, and there was a trace of coldness in her eyes: "You mean, she left the two of you and ran alone gone?"

"Yes." Luo Jinshu's expression was stiff, and his eyes were also filled with coldness, "I went to her room to look at it, and a few clothes were missing from her things, and the box where she hid money was also missing. "

If it's just that the person is missing, it's fine, but it's missing with something soft, which is very problematic!
Don't run early, don't run late, just ran away before the people from the casino came, who knew it wasn't premeditated?But how did she know that the casino would come to make trouble?

Luo Jinxiu vaguely thought of something, and specifically asked some people from the gambling shop about the details after they came. Hearing Luo Jinshu say that those people said that they would sell Zhao Chenshi to the brothel to pay back the money, she became more and more certain that Zhao Chenshi must Somehow, he got the wind in advance, and ran away because he was afraid that he would be betrayed.

But this can't be the reason for her to abandon her two children!
She ran away, but she didn't want to think about it, what if the two half-aged children left behind were used by the gambling house to vent their anger?How can they bear the beatings from the people in the gamblers?
If the villagers hadn't arrived in time, maybe she wouldn't be able to see the two children when she came here now. As soon as she thought of this, Luo Jinxiu would be so angry that her liver hurts, and she wished she could drag Zhao Chenshi out and throw her two children hard. hand.

"How is Zhao Wancai?" After a while, he suppressed his anger a little before asking again.
