Mrs. Qin entered the door with an anxious expression, and hastily greeted Su first.
Seeing that she still had to kneel, Su Yao raised his eyebrows and said, “There’s no need to be too polite, why are you in such a hurry?”
It was already midnight, and she was about to fall asleep. If there was no major event, she believed that Mrs. Qin would wait until daytime to come no matter what.
Sure enough, Mrs. Qin hesitated for a while, and still gritted her teeth and said: “Concubine Taisun, I just heard that people in the village heard that we are going to set up a weaving farm and save those girls. Those girls will lose the face of the clan in the future, and arrest those girls, saying that they are going to set fire to them!”
Shen’s mother opened her eyes wide in shock: “Why is this?! Why are these people so inhumane? They are all from the village, and they are all unarmed girls. Can’t we give them a way out? Those people refuse That’s all, I heard that we want to help, but actually burn people to death, it’s just crazy!”
Jing Ping was also filled with righteous indignation.
They are all girls, and hearing that those good girls are so miserable, she is so uncomfortable that she is about to cry.
Su Yao also lowered his face.
Sometimes she really thinks that men are terribly hypocritical. Those are their relatives, their wives, daughters, or sisters, but to them, nothing is more important than their so-called face, their so-called clan, But any important thing that hinders them, even the closest relatives, can be sacrificed at any time.
She asked Mrs. Qin coldly: “Where did they catch him?”
Madam Qin wiped the cold sweat from her forehead: “In Wujiabao! They are facing the sea there, and they say they want to burn people to death there.”
Mrs. Qin’s complexion was also ugly. She was planning to follow Su Yao to do big things, but now something like this happened. If those girls were burned to death, let alone that the future achievements would not be completed, it would be There is no way for Su Yao to have business affairs here.
How will she have the face to see Su Yao in the future?
Su Yao tapped on the small table: “How many people?”
“More than two hundred people.” Madam Qin couldn’t help but lower her voice, feeling that those villagers were unreasonable.
Burning so many people to death, they are really capable.
Mother Shen is not in the mood to do embroidery anymore, and looks at Su Yao nervously.
Su Yao raised his eyebrows and told Jinping: “Go and let the three provinces come in, tell them to gather all our guards and save people!”
She can’t watch these girls being burned to death, otherwise, wouldn’t she be in vain?
Besides, those girls escaped from the Japanese pirates after a lot of hard work, not because they were killed by their own people in order to come back.
With Su Yao’s words, Mrs. Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Su Yao is willing to take care of this matter, she will have the confidence again.
Sanxing and the others moved very quickly. Not long after Jinping left, Sanxing came in to reply, saying that the matter had been done and more than 340 people were ready.
Ms. Qin immediately said: “I’ll send someone back to the Yamen to call the local militia.”
Soldiers from the local guard are fine, but they can’t be mobilized in a short while.
Su Yao thought for a moment, then looked at the three provinces: “Take a few people to the guard and ask them to transfer troops!”
Even if you add the yamen servants and the militia they can mobilize, the number is not enough.
Su Yao is too aware of these clan forces.
She had seen it when she was in Yunnan. These clans were the local emperors. There was nothing they couldn’t do. Even the words of the government were not as easy to use as theirs.
Moreover, they can also mobilize everyone in the clan. In many cases, the government will suffer in the face of clan forces.
You have to be fully prepared.
Sanxing was a little hesitant. It’s not that he didn’t want to go, but he was worried about keeping Su Yao here.
Knowing his hesitation, Su Yao raised his eyebrows at him to reassure him: “I’m afraid the soldiers in the guard can only be mobilized if you go, and I still have Liu Jie and them here, you don’t have to worry, the most important thing is to get the job done. ”
The three provinces also knew that Su Yao’s arrangement was the most appropriate, so they could only agree after much deliberation.
He rushed into the night with a few people. Mother Shen supported Su Yao, and called out to the girl with some anxiety: “Then what shall we do now?”
If you go directly to Wujiabao, will there be any difference?
Fortunately, Su Yao didn’t intend to travel at night. Saving people is indeed important, but he can’t put himself in it. It will take time for those people to catch these girls. Besides, it’s so late at night, the road may not be peaceful.
She rubbed her temples and looked at Mrs. Qin: “Thank you Madam for your concern. This matter is indeed very important. When someone comes from the yamen tomorrow morning, we will rush to Wujiabao. You can go down and rest first.”
Mrs. Qin herself absolutely didn’t want Su Yao to go on the road in the middle of the night. Although she brought so many guards, it always made people feel uneasy at night. After hearing what Su Yao said, she hurriedly told Su Yao to leave.
Mother Shen was worried, hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing, but cared for Su Yao and fell asleep.
Mother Shen didn’t sleep well that night, so that when she woke up the next morning, there was a thick layer of black and blue under her eye circles.
As soon as Su Yao saw her, she knew that she must have been up all night, and couldn’t help feeling distressed: “You should stay on the boat, or I’ll send someone to send you to the Yamen, so you don’t have to travel with us. ”
I don’t know how long it will take to go to Wujiabao. Su Yao is worried that Shen’s mother’s body will not be able to support it.
Mother Shen was resolutely refusing, how could she rest assured that Su invites to go by herself, saying that she would not go.
Su Yao also knew that she would be frightened if she was asked to go back, so she had no choice but to agree to bring Mother Shen with her.
Fortunately, the road is still relatively peaceful.
Just entering Wujiabao’s territory, they were stopped.
Mrs. Qin took a carriage with Su Yao, and explained to Su Yao when she saw this: “They must have sent someone to guard here, just to prevent us from entering.”
Su Yao also knew that this must be the case.
Liu Jie is clever, Su Yao called Liu Jie over, and said in a deep voice: “Don’t kill anyone, how many people are guarding?”
These things have been investigated before, Liujie lowered his voice and replied to Su Yao: “More than 30 people are guarding, don’t worry, they can’t stop us.”
Liu Jie has always been smart, and he came back from Yunnan. What scene has he not seen?
Seeing that these young and strong people were guarding and refused to move, he simply sent a team of people to demolish the archway of Wujiabao. Those young and strong people saw that the archway was about to be demolished, and they couldn’t care less about stopping it for a while. After seeing these people, they all ran to fight with the people who demolished the archway.
