Chapter 969: Countermeasures against Bullies

Chu Chen was also surprised when he saw Wang Guifang coming out of the house cursing and holding a rusty hatchet.

I thought that this woman had a kind heart, but she was also a tough sister-in-law to those with bad intentions.

This is really interesting.

So he took a few steps forward and walked to Wang Guifang's side, then snatched the rusty hatchet from her hand.

Pointing at the person who came, he said, "Get the hell away from me, if you dare to touch my sister, I will chop you off!"

Looking at Chu Chen in front of him, who was more aggressive and stronger than himself.

Ma Laoer couldn't understand how this widow suddenly had a younger brother.

Chu Chen restrained himself. If he released all his murderous intent, this guy would probably fall to the ground and be unable to get up.

"Okay, okay, you guys are so mean, aren't you? Your man owed me eight hundred coins, and now more than half a year has passed. With the interest, it should be at least one or two taels of silver."

"Just wait, kid. I can't beat you. I'll have the officials to deal with you!"

After saying that, Ma Laoer ran away.

There was no other way. If I didn’t run away, I would probably pee my pants on the spot.

After watching Ma Laoer leave, Wang Guifang immediately snatched the hatchet from Chu Chen's hand: "Qingxuan, go ahead, they will come back."

"This Ma Lao Er, his brother Ma Lao Da is the constable in the city, we can't defeat him."

"Leave quickly before he comes. I can't let my sister-in-law get you into trouble."

Chu Chen smiled after hearing this, thinking to himself, who says a tough person doesn't have a kind heart?

"No, I'm gone, what are you going to do?"

Looking at Chu Chen in front of her and hearing the words he said, Wang Guifang couldn't stop her tears from flowing.

She herself was a person with a very miserable life. Her parents died when she was young, and she survived with her elderly grandfather.

As she grew up and her grandfather grew old, he betrothed her to a man from the neighboring village in order to find her a home.

Unexpectedly, on the wedding day, her husband was arrested. After seeing his granddaughter's support being arrested by the officials, the grandfather died in despair.

Her husband's family disliked her because she was a pretty woman who couldn't do heavy work, so they sent her back home.

So, she had a very difficult time during these days.

Everyone knows that once his wife is arrested, there is no hope of her coming back.

Gradually, some of the brave men in the village began to set their sights on her.

The most powerful among them is Ma Laoer from the neighboring village. Relying on his elder brother who is a constable in the city, he has been doing whatever he wants in the village.

Of course, he was the person who lived the most carefree life in the village. While everyone else lived in thatched houses, he built a brick house and married a wife and two concubines.

In this poor mountain valley, no one dares to think about it.

In order to preserve her reputation, she had held the hatchet countless times, but she knew that one day she would not be able to hold on and Ma Laoer would succeed.

If it were someone else, they would probably have agreed. After all, Ma Laoer was one of the richest men in the area.

But she had also thought that she was just a widow, so how could Ma Laoer bring her into his home? It was just for communication.

When she heard Chu Chen say "what are you going to do", her defense was instantly broken.

Looking at Wang Guifang who couldn't stop crying, Chu Chen didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.

I had no choice but to reach out and pat her thin shoulders: "Don't worry, since you just said that I am your brother, then I am your brother. With your brother here, no one can bully you!"

"Qingxuan, sister-in-law understands what you mean, but how can you, a young man from the city, fight against him!"

"If you're not careful, you'll lose your life in vain!"

"Haha, there's a saying that money makes the world go round. No matter who his backer is, let's find a bigger backer than him."

Wang Guifang burst into laughter after hearing this: "Qingxuan, you don't know that the two taels of silver given by the higher-ups basically helped him pay off his debts. How could there be any money left to curry favor with the masters in the city!"

"Don't worry, sister. Go back first and leave the money-making matters to me!"

After saying that, Chu Chen pulled her into the thatched hut and pushed her directly onto the bed.

Since there are no extra stools, I can't just lie on the bed again.

When Wang Guifang was pushed by Chu Chen, she immediately felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Although she is a widow, she has not really lived as a woman yet. She often chats with the old ladies and young wives in the village, and when she talks about this topic, she feels itchy.

But Chu Chen just pushed her down to sit on the bed.

Then he retreated to the side of the chair and said, "Sis, from now on, you are my sister, and I am your distant brother."

"What do we do in Sanjiang Village to make money?"

When Wang Guifang heard Chu Chen say this to her, she immediately became serious.

"Making money? That's easier said than done. There's only so much land in the mountains, and most of the food we grow goes into various taxes. It's good enough to be able to eat and live."

"Then there is nothing that can earn money?"

After listening to this, Wang Guifang thought for a moment and said, "Yes, there is, but it's not something we can do."

"Let's go deep into the back mountain for a few days. Someone has dug up old mountain ginseng before, but there are wolves, tigers and leopards in the mountain, and no one can easily get in and out."

"Not to mention you, a young man from the city."

Chu Chen smiled slightly after hearing this, thinking that this is an excuse.

Old mountain ginseng, I plundered the treasure trove of so many people, it was too damn much.

But what's the difference between this and taking out silver from the space.

So, he decided to take Wang Guifang with him and go to the back mountain.

"Sister, I said I know martial arts, do you believe me?"

Wang Guifang's eyes lit up after hearing this: "You know martial arts? Then you can become a constable, then you don't have to be afraid of Ma Lao Er."

But as soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it. She knew about the disaster in Lingyang. If she wanted to become a constable, she would need a lot of money.

However, Chu Chen became interested after listening to it. He had never done this job before. Why not give it a try?

"Sister, this method will work. Let me take you to the back mountain to dig wild ginseng. After we dig up the wild ginseng, we will take it to the city to sell it. With the money, we can exchange it for the identity of a constable. Then we will be safe!"

"But the back mountain is really not a place that ordinary people can go."

Seeing that she was still scared, Chu Chen immediately turned around and went out, picked up a big stone from outside, and then smashed the stone into pieces with one punch.

This operation made Wang Guifang open her mouth in surprise. At least there was enough space for a large sausage.

"Qingxuan, this... this is too amazing!"
