When Jiang Yue and the others returned to the village, they found that the villagers were still at the entrance of Xue Dagui’s house, and Shiye was currently locking the carriage onto his black horse.

He didn’t need anyone’s help after putting them on. He threw Grandma Liu, Liu Guisheng, Liu Kaoshan, Liu Guisheng’s wife, and Liu Kaoshan’s wife into the carriage with their hands tied.

Following that, Shiye entered Xue Dagui’s courtyard and reported something to Shao Shuting, who was still standing in the middle of the room with his back against the light, before he came out again.

He drove the carriage overnight to send the group of five to the county government.

It was already late at night, and after the commotion, it became even later. Chief Lu called for everyone to go back to their homes and sleep.

Xue Dafu wasn’t in a hurry to return home. Instead, he entered Xue Dagui’s house and thanked Shao Shuting. Shao Shuting told him not to worry about this small matter, so Xue Dafu thanked him a few more times before leaving.

Xue Erfu, Xue Erfu, and Xue Wufu returned with him.

“Sanfu, Sifu, you can go home first. Xue Yan I will go back later.” Jiang Yue said.

Xue Sanfu and Xue Sifu knew that Jiang Yue and Xue Yan had something to say to Shao Shuting, so they also left.

Only when Xue Sanfu and Xue Sifu were out of sight did Shao Shuting lower his head and look at the kids who were much shorter than him. “Jiang Yue, when did you go up the mountain? Why didn’t I see you?”

Jiang Yue only shrugged.

Shao Shuting immediately raised his eyebrows. “Do you know that I have someone in the county government?” Without waiting for her answer, he smiled and nodded. “You’re right, I shouldn’t even be asking. It’s so obvious. Don’t worry, I guarantee that when they come back, they will be safe and sound.”

“Yes, thank you, “Jiang Yue said.

In fact, she and Xue Yan could have solved this problem by themselves. However, Liu Guixia was the biological daughter of Grandma Liu, so they could only stay away from her at most. It was impossible for a kind-hearted Liu Guixia to do anything to Grandma Liu.

If she and Xue Yan did something to Grandma Liu or anyone else in the family did something to Grandma Liu, Liu Guixia would definitely take the responsibility and think that it was her fault. If it was solved by outsiders, she would not have to feel so restrained. Now that something has Grandma Liu, it has become the outsiders’ matters sending them to the government. It had nothing to do with Liu Guixia anymore. At the very least, she would not have any psychological burden with this choice. No one would say anything else about Liu Guixia.

Xue Yan was going to speak, but Shao Shuting interjected him immediately, “There is no need to say anything, you have already thanked me.” He sighed. “Why do I still feel like we’re strangers? We’ve known each other for half a month. Is this something worth thanking me for? You guys even saved me from the brink of death. If you had to thank me for such a small matter, I’d have to thank you twenty-four hours a day.”

“In fact, how long will it take before we can get close to each other?” he asked curiously.

He was really interested in these two little devils. He could also see that, for some reason, it was as if no one else could enter their hearts except for their family.

Their emotions had never fluctuated much when it came to others.

In the past half a month, he had tried very hard to act close to them. In the end, he really thought that they had become close, but they were still frighteningly neutral towards him.

Shouldn’t children be able to get along easily? Why were these two children so different?
