After those several big children got onto the carriage, they didn't relax their vigilance because they had been rescued from the prison. Before, they had been deceived once. The village head uncle came to redeem them with money. Though the money was clearly given to those officials, when they came out and hadn't walked far, they were caught back by those shameless officials again.

The village head, furious, led the uncles from the village into a brawl with the officials. In the end, people died, but they were the ones who suffered the losses.

Those officials never intended to let them go in the first place.

So the older children first put all the little ones in the carriage. They quietly hid under the carriage, watching to see if these people would really let them go.

But after waiting for a long time, several children did not see any officials. Just as they were wondering, Fang Jinshi appeared.

"Madam Fang!"

This is what Fang Jinshi's children call her.

She hurried over. After these few days together in the cell, the children trusted this woman who had given them clean food and water, and taught them how to treat their own wounds, almost immediately scrambling out from under the carriage as soon as they saw her.

Fang Jinshu still wondered, "How did you guys get under the carriage"

"Did someone just come by"

At that moment, her heart skipped a beat. She thought the county magistrate's men were so capable that they had found her in such a short time.

She specifically told Ah Sheng to hide the children more discreetly.

"Nobody's come, Madam Fang. We're only hiding under the carriage because we're afraid those officials will come and arrest us again." Several young boys quickly shook their heads.

"It's better this way, no one came. Let's get going, hop in the carriage, and I'll take you home first."

The children crowded onto the carriage with Fang Jinshu, while Asheng got into another one. The two carriages set off toward Lühé Village.

On the way, Fang Jinshi learned a lot about Lühe Village from the children. The situation was about as she had guessed.

The people of Lühé Village were originally just ordinary, hardworking folk, and their village was in a state of decline, almost on the verge of collapse.

Before, because there were many sand scorpions, they lived quite well by catching them.

The river that Lücun described did indeed exist, but it dried up later. Since then, the villagers have been unable to catch sand scorpions anymore. With this crucial source of income gone, the village inevitably became impoverished.

Village head Lu has repeatedly appealed to the county authorities, expressing their village's desire to relocate and move the entire village elsewhere. Living on the edge of the desert is unsustainable, and if things continue as they are, Lühe Village risks disappearing altogether.

But his pleas were never answered, until one day, a group of officials suddenly came to the village, claiming to be arresting criminals. As a result, all the children in the village were taken away.

Village Head Lu led his people to the county office, but the magistrate wouldn't even see them. He claimed to have solid evidence and said that these children from the village had committed murder, a capital crime, and would all be executed.

Village Head Lu had thought about resisting, but how could the people possibly fight against the officials The consequences of resistance would be two more deaths in the village.

The villagers knew the government was deliberately framing the children, but they were helpless. After the deaths, no one dared to make a fuss anymore.

When they calmed down, the government officials finally spoke, saying that in light of the children's young age, they were given a chance to redeem themselves and atone for their deeds. That's how the rule of "buying your way out of trouble with money" came into being.

Village Head Lu and the others understood in their hearts that this was just a new way for the county magistrate to extort money, but they had no choice but to pay up obediently.

Or the children will be dead.

If all these children died, then Lühé Village would truly be extinct.

Fan Jinshi, after hearing the children's words, was also thinking constantly in her heart. While Lu He village drove them into the sand pit was despicable, under such a desperate environment, they had no way to be good people.

When you live your life as a good child, it's over.

As Fang Jinshi approached Lü He Village, she was stopped by a group of older children just before she could enter.

"Madam Fang, it's dark now. How about we get off and let you lead the way Our eyes can see in the dark."

"Yeah, we can all see it. Lead the way."

Looking at the innocent little faces, Fang Jinshi couldn't help but think of her son.

Nevermind, for the child's sake, she wouldn't seek revenge on Lühe Village.

But there was one thing they had to do for her.

Okay, lead the way.

Several young boys scrambled down from the carriage and rushed into the village, calling for their parents as they ran.

After all, they're still just children. They were locked up for so long and now that they've finally returned home to see their parents, how could they not be excited

Many villagers were stunned when they heard their children's voices, thinking it was a hallucination caused by missing them too much.

Until their own children truly appeared before them, several choked sobs could be heard erupting from the villagers.

When Ah Sheng heard the noise, he hurried out. Seeing two large carriages parked at the village entrance, he immediately became alert and walked to the side of a few young boys, grabbing one child's arm and asking,

"Gouwa, how did you get out What about the carriages over there"

"Who saved you"

A few days ago, the village head took money to the county office. The money was stolen and the village head was seriously injured. Fortunately, there were a few people who went with him at the time, otherwise they wouldn't have known that the government was so shameless, breaking their promise again by stealing their money and refusing to let them go.

That was all the blood money they had left in the village. Every household had sold everything of value, just to raise enough to bring their children back.

Ah Sheng thought their village was finished, but in the evening he saw Gou Wa and the others return.

"Brother Asheng! It was Lady Fang who saved us, she's in the carriage, I'll take you to see her."

"Other children, and many more, were also rescued by Madam Fang. All the common people imprisoned by the cruel County Magistrate were released by Madam Fang."

“She's so amazing!”

When Asheng heard the other party's surname was Fang, he had a bad premonition. How could it be such a coincidence that the person who saved Gouwa was also a woman surnamed Fang.

He approached the carriage nervously, while Gouwa excitedly shouted inside.

"Madam Fang, you should come down now. We've arrived at our village."

Fang Jinxiu knew they had arrived at the village. She deliberately didn't get off, truly anticipating what expressions the people of Lühe Village would have when they saw her appear again.

Fear Guilt Or once again raise the butcher knife to silence her forever.

She admitted that this was also a test for the people of Lvhe Village. If, even with all the children back, they still dared to harbor ill intentions, then there was no need to keep them.

The young boy shouted twice in a row. Almost all the children in the carriage had already gotten down, but Madam Fang's figure was still nowhere to be seen. He was about to shout again when Fang Jinshu finally appeared as the last child jumped out of the carriage.

Asheng's face tightened upon seeing her, and he even pointed at her with an expression of disbelief.

"This... This can't be! You can't possibly still be alive!"

Gǒuwā yàgé tīng bù míngbái shēnggē zài shuō shénme, tā zěnmeyì jiàn dào tāmen de jī mì ēn rén biǎo qíng zhè me quē.

"Brother Asheng, Lady Fang is a lifesaver for all of us. You are being very rude!"

A Sheng simply had no words to express his bitterness. He didn't want to be rude, but the shock he received was simply too great.this lie seemed impossible to maintain."Mother, this, this.""You should ask them when your brother and sister-in-law get back. I really can't say."If he were to tell his mother immediately that his el...
