Bab 207: Crippled

Li Yu tied Squire Hu and the servants with a rope. Then she picked up the dead guard and threw him onto the carriage.

A few villagers carried the dog away. The other villagers ran to Squire Hu and the servants. Some kicked and spat, venting their anger.

Li Yu looked at the sky and said to Li Qing, "It's getting late. If we rush to the county city, the city gates will probably be closed. Let's go and see if there are any abandoned houses in the village. Lock them up first and report them to the government office tomorrow morning!"

Chen Shi nodded and said, "Madam Li, the village chief's house and Chen Gui's house are just ahead. Why don't we lock them up at the village chief's house!"

Li Yu nodded and said, "Alright."

The old woman who had complained about Li Yu previously walked up to Li Yu and bowed awkwardly to her. "Xiaoyu! Don't hold it against me! The Hu family is too bad. We're just too afraid."
