The fierce stepmother of the farm family, brought her cubs to get rich

Chapter 22 Not bad
Jiang Yichen suddenly looked forward to the reaction of the person in front of him after he knew his true identity.

anger?dull?fly into a rage?
"I'm sorry." He covered his lips and smiled, "My friend only allows me to do this."

Gu Manxiu looked at him: "If you don't want to be recommended, just say it, it's so grand."

Jiang Yichen laughed happily, and his low voice pressed against the heartstrings, making people feel very moved, "If Miss Gu has such a need, it's not a bad idea to ask me."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Manxiu's scrutinizing eyes fell without hesitation.

This person has an extraordinary temperament, and his family background is naturally not too bad. At the beginning, he was just rescued casually, without thinking too much about his identity. At this moment, all his extraordinary things came to mind, and doubts abounded.

"No need." Gu Manxiu simply shook his head, "Do it yourself, and have enough food and clothing."

"Then I will wait and see."

Let's see what tricks this independent and self-reliant woman can pull off.

Early the next morning, while Gao's third child was still sound asleep, the door was kicked open from the outside, and a layer of dust was kicked up with such force.

"It's not enough to sunbathe your butt, do you really think this is your own home?"

Gu Manxiu was slim and slender in the air, and she was dressed in coarse cloth, so she walked to the bed, clapped her hands and made a big noise, waking up the three brothers and sisters who were sleeping in each other's arms on the bed.

Gao Yuanshan looked vigilant, sat up from the bed and looked at her; Gao Changhe directly retracted the quilt and continued to sleep; Gao Xiaoyue opened her eyes in confusion, and lay there as if in a daze, without moving.

"Give you a stick of incense time to clean up! Then follow me up the mountain to cut firewood!"

Gu Man Xiucai didn't care about the waking state of several people, hurriedly dropped the order and left the house.

The sunrise in the early morning at the end of winter is slightly cool, and the fresh air rushing to the foot of the mountain dilutes the drowsiness of the whole body.Many red flowers and green leaves rushing to spring are beginning to appear, and they are scattered on the roads in the mountains.The morning dew hangs on the buds, unable to fall, reflecting the morning light.

From time to time, there are a few birdsong in the forest, and the chirping birds are not disturbing, and they bring a bit of peace and prosperity to the village.

In this beautiful environment, Gu Manxiu's words hurt the good mood of the three children: "Each person has three bundles of firewood, and they are not allowed to eat without one."

"Three bundles!"

Gao Changhe exclaimed, when will this end? !

Gu Manxiu put one hand on her hip, leaned against the towering tree beside her, and raised her eyes lazily: "What? Do you have an opinion?"

"Isn't it too much not to eat?" Gao Yuanshan stood up and retorted: "No matter what, I have to give food."

Gu Manxiu looked at her deeply: "I got all the things, and I can do whatever I say."

autocratic!

The three children cursed in their hearts.

Due to the indoctrination of her two older brothers yesterday, Gao Xiaoyue has mixed impressions of Gu Manxiu at this moment, so she stood up uncertainly and asked, "What about you?"

"Me?" Gu Manxiu looked at Lin Zi, deep and far away, "Take care of yourselves first."

After saying that, he dropped the tool, left the three of them in place, and left.

"She just wanted us to work, so she was lazy!" Gao Changhe got angry and kicked the iron tool on the ground: "This woman is too vicious!"

"Forget it, do it quickly." Gao Yuanshan comforted, "Now that we are dependent on others, it is inevitable for her to squeeze. We will leave when we get the things later."

"I can't take it all day!" Gao Changhe's immature face was flushed with anger, and the toes of his toes were in pain from kicking the iron object, "Get it early!"

"Why didn't she die in the river back then?"

Gao Yuanshan's face was gloomy, staring at the cut surface of the ax on the ground, the sharp point glowed with silver light: "There will be a chance."

Puzzled questions were asked from the child's mouth, and the darkness in his heart was cut open.

Gu Manxiu, who left quickly, was unaware of these sinister discussions.

She stipulated that the amount of firewood today was eighteen bundles, and she was fully responsible for the remaining nine bundles.

It was almost noon, and there were strands of sunlight shining through the forest. Gu Manxiu glanced at the ten bundles of firewood neatly placed on the ground, and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead: "It can be considered finished!"

The agent attribute is lit up, and the task is overfulfilled!

Glancing at the opposite mountain, thinking that the three little dolls are almost finished, they can gather the firewood together and go down the mountain for lunch.

Before she got close, Gao Xiaoyue's cry had already reached her ears: "Brother——Brother!"

Gao Changhe's dissatisfied complaints followed one after another: "Don't cry now! What's the use? Let's think about how to save people!"

Gu Manxiu was curious about what they were talking about, but before she could ask, Gao Xiaoyue rushed up to her crying, "Stepmother! Stepmother! Save elder brother! He was taken away by a gang of villains just now! "

"Bad guy?" Gu Manxiu frowned slightly, and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"

Gao Xiaoyue was so out of breath from crying, she hiccupped for a few times, but couldn't speak at all.

Gu Manxiu waited impatiently, and pointed to Gao Changhe: "You tell me."

"Just now, when we were chopping firewood, a group of people rushed over and asked for our money, but we couldn't give it back. He wanted to kill us. My brother said to take them to get the money."

The scene just now really scared them to death!
It's hard for him to tell what happened when he was trembling all over.

Gu Manxiu's face was as cold as frost, "Where did you go?"

"We don't know..." Gao Changhe lowered his head, "We just went in that direction."

Gu Manxiu made a decision in a split second, pointing to the scattered things on the ground: "You guys carry the firewood home, there is still on the opposite mountain, move them back together, I found that one bundle was missing, and there will be no food for the next three days eat."

"What about you?" Gao Changhe stood there in a daze, unable to understand the meaning of Gu Manxiu's words.

Gu Manxiu stared at the road with footprints, turned his eyes back to his senses, and then said: "If I don't go to save people, why don't you go?"

Gao Changhe opened his mouth again and again, with a troubled expression on his face, he held back for a long time before uttering a few words awkwardly.

"You...be careful yourself."

"Bring me the firewood back." Gu Manxiu ignored him.

After finishing speaking, Gu Manxiu raised her foot and was about to leave, but her sleeve was pulled a bit, and when she looked back, it was the little girl Gao Xiaoyue who was looking at her whether she wanted to cry or not.

"Stepmother." Gao Xiaoyue said with red eyes, "I want to bring my brother back."

"Understood, let's go back with your brother." Gu Manxiu nodded: "Don't delay things."

She followed the footprints alone and pursued them.The vigorous and agile figure travels through the entire jungle, like a leopard hunting.

Gu Manxiu's figure disappeared from the sight of the two of them, and after a long while, the two of them began to pack the firewood on the ground in silence.

With a hatchet in her hand, Gao Xiaoyue couldn't help making a sound.

"Brother, stepmother really..."

Before Gao Xiaoyue finished speaking, Gao Changhe interrupted it directly, and squatted down to pick up the firewood full of firewood on the ground: "Go back."

What Gao Xiaoyue didn't finish speaking, in fact, both of them knew in their hearts that Gao Changhe didn't want to listen, but it was because he couldn't refute such words now.

Two figures, one big and one small, walked in the sunlight on their way home.

Gu Manxiu at the other end also chased to the end of the footprints, which was a village.

In fact, it is more appropriate to call it a village than a village.

The gate of this stockade is surrounded by a fence. There are houses, fields, and livestock. There are obviously many people living in it. Why go up the mountain and kidnap children?
