Chapter 279
Baozi is an honest girl, she has always listened to Li Meier's words very much, although she felt that it was not good to hide it from his wife and grandma, but she could only agree to Li Meier's repeated requests.Only then did Li Meier feel relieved and went to Jiang's room.

As soon as she entered Jiang's bedroom, she saw a chubby little dumpling throwing herself into her arms.

"Sister! You were really amazing yesterday, you beat the bad guys away!" Kang Geer raised his head, hanging on Li Meier's neck, and Xiao Yuan's face was full of admiration.

Li Meier scraped his little nose with her hands in a funny way, and then licked his little face, then hugged him and said: "Our brother Kang was also very brave yesterday, we have been protecting mother and grandmother all the time." .”

Kang Geer was a little embarrassed by Li Meier's words, and his little face blushed slightly: "I'm not as good as my sister, but I'm a little man, and I can beat bad people like my sister in the future." He clenched his little fist tightly, very serious.

"Alright Brother Kang, get off your sister quickly, your sister still has injuries on her feet." Mrs. Jiang poked her head out of the bed and said to her son with a light smile.

Li Meier saw that Jiang was in good spirits, so she knew that there was really nothing serious, she carried Kang Geer to the bedside, reassured him, and then asked: "How does mother feel today? But what else is uncomfortable? "

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, but you, do you have any discomfort on your body, do your feet still hurt?" Jiang asked with concern while reaching out to touch Li Mei'er's cheek.

"The medicine has been applied, and the swelling has subsided now, and there is no pain at all." Li Mei'er smiled and pulled her skirt to let Jiang look at her feet.

"It's good that it's okay. Our family is blessed by God. Yesterday's danger was over. When your father comes back, we have to go to the Guanyin Temple to worship a Bodhisattva." Jiang said very gratefully.

"Mother, why don't you learn from your grandmother, it's obviously brother Chen Pi who saved us, we have to thank him if we want to." Li Meier said with a smile.

"Of course Chen Pi should be thanked, but it's not wrong to pay homage to the Bodhisattva, otherwise how could he have arrived in such a timely manner to save our family." With a smile on her face, Mrs. Jiang was more and more grateful in her heart. This is really a good person There is a good reward, if she hadn't helped her at the beginning, and later agreed to Chen Pi to come to the printing shop as an apprentice, there would be no yesterday Chen Pi came to rescue, every drink and peck, it's all a karmic cycle.

"Okay, I'm fine here. Take Kang Geer to your grandmother's place to have a look. She guarded me for most of the night yesterday. She didn't go to bed until dawn. She is old, so tossing around like this is not easy. I don’t know if my body can take it.” Jiang urged her daughter to visit Mrs. Li, she is very grateful to this mother-in-law now.

"I'll go right away!" Li Mei'er also remembered Mrs. Li, seeing that Mrs. Jiang was fine here, she got up and dragged Kang Ge'er to go.

But when they got outside Mrs. Li's house, they were told by Chuaner that Mrs. Li was catching up on sleep. She stayed up for most of the night last night, and the old lady couldn't hold on any longer. She was sleeping soundly now.

Li Meier couldn't help lowering her voice when she heard the words, and said in a low voice, "Then I'll go to the kitchen to prepare meals, and I might as well prepare breakfast and lunch together, and grandma can eat when she wakes up."

Chuan'er quickly said: "Breakfast was prepared by Madam Lin early in the morning. The porridge can be eaten with some light side dishes. Let's eat some first." She knew that Li Meier had just woken up, and she was afraid that she would be hungry.

Li Meier nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Have those people in the front yard had breakfast?"

"They left at dawn and didn't have breakfast at our house. Ding Yi tried to persuade them to stay, but they all said that something happened at home and they had to leave. Ding Yi and Young Master Shan Qing sent them out personally." Chuan'er replied.

Li Mei'er nodded, told Chuan'er to take good care of Mrs. Li, and hurried to the front yard.When she got to the front yard, she saw Ding Yi holding a big brush and scrubbing the ground in front of the gate. There was still a small red stain on the ground, and Li Meier knew what it was without guessing.

Li Meier looked around, but she didn't see Jiang Shanqing, so she stepped forward and asked Ding Yi, "Where is Young Master Shanqing?"

Ding Yi also saw Li Meier earlier, stopped his movements and replied: "Master Biao followed the official sent by the state to explain the situation, and he has been away for some time, he should be back soon."

"Has the official mission from the state capital arrived yet?" Li Meier said pleasantly, her heart finally fell to the ground.

"I heard that we arrived in the middle of the night yesterday, and we were just busy cleaning up the pirates in the town. By morning, the pirates were almost killed, so we had time to check the situation of the major households in the town. We didn't come so soon. Our family just stopped by to have a look when we went to Mr. Xin's house." Ding Yi said some more about the situation.

"How is Uncle Xin's house, are you alright?" Last night her family cared about escaping for their lives, and didn't care about others. Now when Ding mentioned Li Xin's house, he immediately asked with concern.

"We greeted Mr. Xin in advance. They were prepared and not in such a hurry. They blocked the Japanese pirates at the door, and no one was injured." Ding Yi replied.

Only then did Li Meier feel relieved, thinking that if she had known this before, the whole family should have taken refuge at Sanbo Xin's house, and they would not have been in such a mess last night, or they had made it up, thinking that the Japanese pirates would not come Small families like them, how could they have imagined that the Japanese pirates did not come, but a group of local ruffians did.

Li Meier thought so, then looked at the place where Ding Fang had just brushed the ground, pointed at the dark red patch and asked, "Those ruffians died here yesterday, how many did they come and how many died?"

"A total of five came, and Master Biao and I killed two together. Later, those brothers from Brother Chen Pi came over and helped us kill two more, and the other one ran away in the chaos." Ding One One Five One Ten replied.

Although he spoke plainly, he could still think of the danger of last night. He stood on tiptoe and patted Ding Yi's arm and said, "Brother Ding Yi, thank you so much. If it weren't for you yesterday, our family wouldn't be here." know what to do."

Ding Yi was a little embarrassed by Li Meier's words, scratched his head and said, "My sister, you are welcome. My wife and grandma gave me a bite to eat. Naturally, I will work hard for my family. Besides, you all treat me very well." , on weekdays, not only do I have a lot of care, but I also lent money to see a doctor for my old mother in the country. I am too late to be grateful, how can I bear a 'thank you'."

"That's two different things. In yesterday's situation, we are grateful if you can go all out to protect my house. Brother Ding, you will work hard in my house in the future. My parents and grandmother will not treat you badly. What do you have? Just ask, just ask." Li Meier smiled and said very boldly.
