Qing'an County.

On the fifth day after Gu Zhihua disappeared, two people found the small house where Shuhua and the others lived.

"...Gu Zhihua owes our Brother Hua five hundred taels of silver for gambling. This is the written receipt. We will come over in three days to collect the money. If not, huh, don't blame us for being rude!"

The crowds of people were agitated, and their eyes were wandering around Shuhua, Xiaoqing and Xiaohong. It seemed at first glance that they were not good people.

Xiaoqing and Xiaohong were so frightened that they hid behind Shuhua and pushed Shuhua to the front.

Shuhua was also panicking, but the people in the house who came to deliver messages from the Gu family had been sent back to the county town, and now they were the master and servant.

"My husband is a civil servant. He is obsessed with reading and practicing calligraphy. He never gambles. You must be mistaken!"

"Our Brother Hua is so good. I guess that bad gambler's family will refuse. Now, do you recognize this thing?"

A sachet stained with blood was thrown in front of Shuhua.

Shuhua's eyelids jumped hard when she saw the sachet, and her heart sank suddenly.

She personally embroidered this sachet for Gu Zhihua, with flowers blooming and stems on it, symbolizing the relationship between the two of them.

"What did you do to my husband? You are not allowed to hurt him. He is a master of civil affairs and has a great reputation!" Shuhua cried and shouted, and Xiaoqing and Xiaohong also cried.

The two men in front of them were both bastards, and they didn't even take the warning of this lustful woman in their eyes.

"It is natural to pay back debts. With the IOU written in black and white in hand, no one can even think of defaulting on the debt."

"We brought it here, three days, just three days!"

Before the two left, they reached out to Shuhua's bulging chest. Shuhua screamed and hid aside. Xiaohong behind her did not escape and was pinched tightly by the man.

"Haha, big steamed bun!"

Xiaohong was so embarrassed that she almost died of anger. The two people wiped the oil and laughed and slammed the door and left, leaving three women in the yard crying and screaming.

"Miss Cousin, what should we do? Three days, three days will cost five hundred taels of silver..." Xiao Hong stamped her feet anxiously.

Xiao Qing also had a look of fear on her face, "Sister, if we can't raise five hundred taels of silver in three days, what will they do to my husband?"

Shuhua was also wiping away tears and trying to think of a solution, but a handkerchief was crumpled.

Hearing Xiaoqing's words "sister", Shuhua raised her head and stared deeply at Xiaoqing, who was dressed as a woman in front of her, thoughtfully.

elder sister?

Bitch, do you really think that since I begged for you and made you my aunt, you really put yourself on an equal footing with me? Are you worthy?

"Sister, if it doesn't work out, let's go report it to the officials. Our husband-in-law is the one who is raising people, and the officials will not ignore it!" Xiao Qing stepped forward and reached out to grab Shuhua's arm, saying anxiously.

Xiao Hong also ran over and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, report it to the government and let the government catch those bad guys."

Shuhua looked at the two faces younger than herself in front of her and closed her eyes.

"That makes sense. I'll go to the government office right now."

"Sister, I'll go with you." Xiaoqing followed.

Shuhua touched Xiaoqing's face affectionately: "Sister, stay at home. The more times like this, the less likely we sisters are to be chaotic. We must guard the house and wait for our husband to come back."

Xiaoqing was a little moved.

Someone once said that if you want to enjoy happiness, you must first share hardships. You must seize this opportunity.

Shuhua took Xiaohong out of the house, while Xiaoqing closed the courtyard door tightly at home.

"Miss Biao, this doesn't seem to be the way to the government?" Xiaohong looked at the shops on the roadside, feeling a little confused.

Because Shuhua took her into a teahouse.

Shuhua said: "Don't worry, if we want to sue Brother Hua, we must first find out who he is."

"Oh!" Xiaohong was still confused, "Since I'm asking, why did you enter the teahouse?"

"Silly girl, there are so many people in the teahouse, especially the waiters here, who are watching all directions and listening to all directions!" Shuhua said.

The master and servant found an inconspicuous place to sit down. While ordering tea and snacks, Shuhua asked the waiter about Hua Ge's name.

The waiter looked embarrassed. Shuhua grabbed a handful of reward money and put it on the table. The waiter then looked around, covered his face with the tray in his hand and spoke in a low voice.

After saying a few words, the waiter was called away, and at the table, Shuhua's face was obviously darker.

"Miss Cousin, what did the guy say?" Xiaohong leaned over and asked in a low voice.

Shuhua came back to her senses and shook her head, "No, I won't eat. Let's go first and change places."

Shuhua walked straight forward, the waiter's words still echoing in her ears.

In Qing'an County, there are not even a thousand but also five hundred people with the word "Hua" in their names.

But when the name "Brother Hua" is mentioned, anyone who works on the street will think of Lai Touhua.

He was a ruthless man who opened a money bank openly and a gambling house secretly. When he was fifteen, he had an argument with his stepfather, and his stepfather chopped off his head with a kitchen knife, hence the name Laitou.

His stepfather chopped off his head with a kitchen knife. Lai Touhua grabbed the kitchen knife, chopped off his stepfather's head, and threw it into the manure pit.

The government arrested him and brought him to justice, but it turned out that his mother gave him a bottle. The Taoist woman was afraid that she would be interrogated by the official and found something wrong, so she was killed in the cell before the trial was held. There was no evidence to prove her death.

Lai Touhua escaped and made his official debut. He followed a big brother from Qing'an County at that time. Because he dared to fight and fight hard, he became a red stick in the gang at that time. He rose to the top step by step with the scars all over his body.

This person is not only ruthless, but also smart, and he has won over a group of subordinates.

When the time came, I found a trap and killed the eldest brother, while passing the blame to another evenly matched competitor in the gang.

Lai Touhua's rise to power was stained step by step with blood, sin, and betrayal.

My husband must have been deceived into gambling at Lai Touhua's gambling house. When he lost the bet, he borrowed money from the gambling house and ended up in Lai Touhua's hands.

If you fall into the hands of such a ruthless person, you will definitely have no mercy. Even if you go to the government to report him, it probably won't work.

For a person to get into this position, he must have some unclear relationship with the government. If he could be dealt with, the government would not be able to keep him alive until now.

Shuhua took each step with one thought in mind, her face was pale and delicate, but the ideas in her heart never stopped, but she was overturned one by one.

Suddenly, she stopped at the entrance of an alley.

Xiaohong followed Shuhua with her head buried in the air. She stopped suddenly and Xiaohong almost bumped into Shuhua's back.

"Miss Biao, why did you stop?" Xiaohong asked.

Shuhua said, "Wait for me here for a while. I'll go in and see an old friend. Maybe I can think of a way to save my husband."

Xiaohong looked around and nodded: "Miss Cousin, you are pregnant, so walk slower."

Shuhua turned her head and smiled gently at Xiaohong, then turned and entered the alley.

Xiaohong waited and waited at the entrance of the alley. After about a moment of burning incense, a middle-aged woman with makeup and powder came out.
