But he said that Zhuqing followed Li Zheng back to the village that day and was thinking about how to protect himself if he encountered something as vicious as Scared Tiger again.
Last time I was lucky, they just knocked me unconscious and escaped.
If they become aggressive next time and just hit them with a knife, wouldn't your life be over?
Although everything in this ancient time is not as convenient and comfortable as modern life. But isn't it better to be alive than anything else?
In her last life, she was in the hospital because she wanted to protect her respected old director, but she was pushed down by a doctor and never got up.
She hasn't had time to realize her ambition in this life, and she doesn't want to lose her life so easily.
She thought about it again and again, and felt that she was small and weak, and most of them would not pay attention or guard against themselves when gangsters approached. Therefore, it might be a good choice to keep a few embroidery needles with you. In addition, if you encounter gangsters, you can
There is something like pepper spray, which seems to be able to protect against it.
So, she racked her brains and came up with something for self-defense, and asked Li Zheng to bring one for everyone patrolling the village.
"Qingya, do you think this thing will work?" Zang Lizheng took the small cloth bag she gave him, still a little hesitant.
"Grandpa Li Zheng, don't worry! I said it will definitely work if it works! Let's just be in case!" Zhu Qing tried his best to persuade Li Zheng.
"If the time is not too short, what I can do is limited. I think it is best for everyone in our village to use it. Who knows if the bad guy will come again?" Zhu Qing said what was in his heart.
"Probably not! That scarred tiger has now gone to the Wen family! I think he probably took a lot of money to escape." Li Zheng guessed.
"Hey, if the bad guys are not eliminated, we will not be able to live in peace for a day!" Zhu Qing couldn't help but frown.
"Yes! But if the Zhou family comes forward, the scarred tiger will definitely be caught soon!" For some reason, Li Zheng has more confidence in the Zhou family than in the Yamen.
"I hope so!" Zhu Qing also hopes that this matter will settle down soon. In the past few days, Wang and the others have not allowed her to leave the village because of fear. Naturally, it is impossible for her to go to Doctor Qian's house again, let alone
Went looking for soju to make peppermint oil.
So recently, apart from finding some medicinal herbs in the fields near the village and helping Wang with some housework, Zhuqing has been practicing calligraphy and reading with Zhushan at home.
Zhushan's health has improved a lot recently. He can eat enough every day, and with proper exercise, his originally yellow and thin face also looks much better.
It's just that something bad happened to him recently, which made him unable to go out.
Mrs. Wang didn't dare to let him go out at all.
It was clear that the scarred tigers were seeking revenge against her family, and Zhu Qing was knocked unconscious by them. So she and Sun Fucheng were more nervous than anyone else in the village. They were afraid that Zhu Qing and Zhu Shan would encounter something again.
Accident.
Therefore, the two of them kept a close eye on Zhuqing and Zhushan and would not let them go out easily.
Only after repeated protests did Zhuqing gain the freedom to walk around the village.
Early that morning, Zhuzi came to Zhuqing and said, "Sister Qingya, I found a lot of snails by the river behind the village. Do you want to come with me to touch some?"
In summer, there will be a lot of snails by the river. After you get them, cut off the buttocks and steam them. It is also a rare delicacy. For the children of farmers, it is also a meat dish.
When Zhuqing heard him talking about snails, he couldn't help but think of his favorite dish of fried snails with leeks in modern times. It was fragrant, fresh and delicious.
So she nodded and said, "Okay, let's go together!"
Just as she was about to leave, she and Zhu Zhu took a net bag and a bucket and headed to the river behind the village together.
There are two artificially excavated small rivers at the east and west ends of Cuizhu Village. The river on the west side is relatively long and extends to the back of the village. Follow the path along the river to the back of the village and you can go all the way to the town.
and the official road to neighboring villages.
Zhuqing and Zhuzhu went to the river in the west.
They walked to the river behind the village and found that there were many snails gathering under and beside the bluestone slabs on the river bank.
They stretched out their hands to touch them, and they all picked them right. In this hot summer, it was rare to touch the snails by the cool river, and the green bamboo felt it was a kind of enjoyment.
Seeing that the bucket he brought was almost full, Zhu Qing called to Zhuzi: "Zhuzi, we have paid so much for today. It's time to go back. When we get back later, we will split it in half..."
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly heard the sound of galloping horse hooves.
As soon as I looked up, I saw a carriage speeding towards me on the official road leading from Pingan Town to the village.
As for the coachman of the carriage, from a distance, Zhu Qing felt that the figure looked familiar. When he thought about it again, his hair stood on end! That coachman was actually a scarred tiger!
"Zhuzi, it's Scared Tiger who's coming. Let's go back and report the news! Put this bucket here first!" Zhu Qing motioned to Zhuzi to put down the wooden bucket filled with snails, then pulled him away and ran away!
While running away, she shouted at the top of her voice: "Scarred Tiger is coming! Everyone, pay attention!"
Following her shout, the adults in Cuizhu Village quickly gathered together.
At the same time, Scar Tiger also saw two children running wildly as he got closer and closer to Cuizhu Village.
He also recognized Zhu Qing almost at a glance! It was this little girl who caused them to hide and go to Changshan County last time!
This time, he will never let her go!
He galloped on his horse and was about to catch up with Zhu Qing, but when his carriage approached the big tree at the entrance of the village, something happened suddenly.
A tripping rope suddenly appeared in front of the fast-moving galloping horse. Herod the horse neighed and fell to the ground suddenly!
The scarred tiger only had time to tighten the reins before he was thrown off the horse.
He was so shaken by this fall that before he could recover, two men rushed over and put their swords on his neck: "Be honest, I'll chop off your head if you move!"
Scared Tiger wanted to struggle, but the severe pain from his leg reminded him that he probably broke his leg!
"Damn it!" He couldn't help but curse. However, at this moment, no matter how proud he was before, it was impossible for him to be cruel again.
Soon, people from the village rushed over and tied up the scarred tiger like a rice dumpling so that he could no longer move.
Seeing Scared Tiger being captured, Zhuqing, Zhuzhu and the others also returned.
At a glance, they saw the carriage that had overturned because the horse fell down. At this time, they heard a faint whimpering sound coming from the carriage.
"There's someone in the car!" Zhu Qing immediately walked over with Zhu Zi to check.
