After a busy day, Liu Huan knew that everyone was tired, so she asked them to take a break. She also took the time to catch up on her sleep. After all, it would be difficult to sleep well if she was busy every two or three hours.

Ermo went to prepare food every day. When he saw someone selling beef in the city, he bought a big piece of beef. At the entrance of the village, he met a few aunts who were enjoying the cool air.

The aunties greeted him warmly, "Ermo, you're back from buying groceries again."

"Hey, this is beef, it's really expensive."

Ermo smiled innocently: "I saw someone selling it so I bought some to make for my sister."

"Then you should go back quickly."

As soon as the others left, several aunts started discussing, "The Liu family is really rich. They buy different vegetables every day, and they never run out of meat at home."

"That's nothing. They bought several chickens from my house, and they paid one cent more than the county."

The aunt was very envious: "It's all because I didn't feed anything this year, otherwise I could have had a share."

A young wife who had just given birth a few months ago said sourly: "Even if there is money, it's not hers. Who knows, it's some mistress who gave birth here. She can't be seen in public."

The aunt who sold the chicken to the Liu family said, "Don't talk nonsense. Madam Su is obviously from a scholarly family and knows what's important."

"That's right, other people named their children Anzhi Anran, but you gave your child a name like Lotus. There are many Lotuses in the village."

When the young wife saw that everyone was speaking for Liu Huan, she went back angrily and changed her daughter's name to Anxin. The villagers laughed at her for a long time.

On the other hand, several aunts sneered at the young wife's behavior, "People from the same family are alike. The daughter-in-law you marry is always a troublemaker."

"She is just jealous. As a woman herself, how can she have the nerve to make up such vicious words about others?"

"That's right. The death of her husband is already a great misfortune. Can't she have some money?"

The few people sat for almost the entire time before leaving. Behind a large tree nearby, a shifty-looking man stared at their backs as they left, his eyes darting back and forth, and it was obvious that he was up to something bad.

Sure enough, the sound of catching a thief was heard from Liu's house at night.

The story begins when Liu Huan got up to breastfeed her baby.

Originally, Qiuju suggested hiring a wet nurse, but Liu Huan felt it was a bit uncomfortable to let his child grow up drinking someone else's milk. He also had his own milk, so he had to get up once or twice every night.

At night she got up to breastfeed the baby, and Qiu Rong assisted her. She and Qiu Ju each took one day at a time.

Just after feeding the child and getting ready to go to bed, they heard rustling sounds outside the yard. The two looked at each other, and Qiu Rong hurriedly opened the back door to call Ermo to get up.

Ermo had fought in battles before, so he quickly caught three people who were about to break into the house to steal things in the yard.

He also asked Qiu Rong to call the village chief. When the village chief heard that there were thieves, he immediately called several men and women from his family to come to Liu's house.

Some took hoes, some took knives, and they ran over angrily, almost dying of anger.

"What are you doing here, little dog?"

Gouwazi is a useless person who is well-known in the village for being lazy, idle, and a thief.

"Uncle, we are just passing by."

The village chief was furious. "You passed by in the middle of the night and brought two people with you? You even walked into someone's yard? You really brought shame to Heshui Village."

"Ermo, tell me how to solve this problem."

Ermo followed Liu Huan's instructions and said, "Uncle, I don't care if they are from the village or not. I will definitely send them to see the official tomorrow."

"Second bun..." The village chief wanted to plead.

Ermo said with a straight face: "If I hadn't spent a few years in the military camp, my house might have been looted. The safety of my two nephews, nieces, and three female relatives would have been in jeopardy. It's really scary to think about it."

The village chief was also very upset when he heard this. He stepped forward and kicked Gou Wa Zi, "You bastard, it's bad enough that you just idle around all day, but now you bring people to rob the village. Can you be worthy of your parents?"

Gouwazi and the village chief are relatives. Gouwazi's parents are old, and his wife couldn't stand it anymore and ran away, leaving behind one or two children who were as thin as monkeys and no one took care of them. As long as he didn't go too far, the villagers would only say a few words for the sake of his parents.

Now it's getting more and more outrageous. He even brought thugs from the county to the village to cause trouble, and he came to the Liu family. Even if the village chief wanted to protect him, he couldn't say a word.

Gou Wazi cried with tears and snot all over his face, "Uncle, please forgive me this time. I really know I was wrong. If I go to jail, what will happen to my two children? And my parents will definitely not be able to bear it."

The village chief went up and kicked him a few more times, "I'm going to beat you to death, you bastard, you might as well just die."

After the beating, he looked at Ermo and said, "Ermo, can you make him pay some money? This... just consider this as a favor to your uncle. If he does something stupid again in the future, don't worry, I will be the first one to tie him up and take him to the government office without you saying anything."

Seeing this, Ermo said earnestly, "Uncle, I'll tell you the truth. When I was in the military camp, I killed dozens of people. I was personally appointed as a centurion by the emperor."

"Even if they come dozens of times, I can make them leave without returning. I'm just worried that if he dares to bring outsiders to my house today, he will dare to bring people to other people's houses next time. Then other people may not be so lucky."

The person who was originally thinking about pleading for mercy suddenly changed his mind and said, "Yes, even a desperate dog will jump over the wall, let alone this kind of gangster."

Gou Wa Zi quickly said, "No, I will never do it again. If I do it again, my whole family will die."

The village chief grabbed a stick and started beating him: "If anyone is going to die, let it be you. Don't take your parents and children with you."

After beating the dog until it screamed in pain, Er Mo said, "Today, I will spare him for the sake of the village chief. I hope he can reform. But I will report the other two to the police."

The village chief said gratefully, "Yes, yes, yes. Tomorrow I will report to the authorities in the name of the village chief. Thank you very much, nephew."

The village chief took the man away, and Liu Huan came out. Qiu Rong said angrily, "Master, why don't you send that man to the authorities? It looks like he is a dog that can't change its nature."

Liu Huan explained: "Looking at the attitude of the village chief and the villagers, they are obviously trying to protect us. We have only been here for a short time, so there is no need to make enemies with the villagers. Since they are determined to protect us, let's see how they will end up if they cause even greater trouble in the future."

In addition, since the child will be living there for a long time, he will have to get along with the villagers. If the villagers harm the child because of this incident, it would be hard to guard against.

Who knew that their words would come true, and the disaster was actually related to them, but that’s a story for later.

At this moment, several people suddenly realized: "The master is really thoughtful."

At dawn the next day, they sent several people to the government office to report the case. Everyone in the village knew about it, and those who had been ready to make a move calmed down.

People who always say bad things about Liu Huan don’t dare to say anything anymore. This is another point that Liu Huan didn’t mention, to shock others.

Just a few people can deliver the goods to the yamen by themselves without going through the village chief. Ermo can do it by himself. Many people are jealous of the Liu family who eat meat every meal. If it's not him today, there will be others in the future.

It would be better to make a big fuss and let people know Ermo's skills. Those who want to cause trouble will naturally have to consider whether they are qualified.
