Chapter 240: The Situation Was Grim

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“And all of them are extrely vicious.

“They were the ones who entered the town to kill last night.

“Based on the situation outside, the governnt office has already been taken down by these bandits.

“Now they are removing the bodies on the street while robbing the shops along the street at the sa ti.

“When they encountered people who cooperated with them, the victims would only lose so of the shop’s property at most. Those who didn’t cooperate were killed outright by the mountain bandits.”

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room held their breaths.

Was it really the bandits who went around killing people? The mountain bandits… even took over the entire governnt office?

What should they do? Did that an Mountain Spring Town had fallen into the hands of the mountain bandits?

“For now, the mountain bandits’ main focus is to comb through the streets. Next, they will definitely go into the various alleys.

“And into private houses as well.”

At this point, Qin Xiaoyao’s expression beca a little more grim.

As for the rest of the Song family, their faces had all turned pale.

This group of mountain bandits killed without batting an eye. If they really broke into their ho, what would they do?

Qin Xiaoyao sighed.

“Let’s make preparations in advance.

“Yun’er, Xiaoi, you must wear n’s clothes properly from now on and don’t keep yourself too clean. Make yourself look a little unkempt.

“Also, if you have nothing to do, stay in the house and don’t go into the courtyard.”

Song Yun and Wang Xiaoi looked at each other and nodded.

Qin Xiaoyao then looked at Madam Liu and Song Ye.

“During this period, Ye’er will move to stay with Mother. Don’t go out if there’s no need,” she said.

Madam Liu pulled her youngest son into her arms and replied, “Mm-hmm!”

Only then did Qin Xiaoyao feel more at ease.

Then, she looked at her husband.

“Hubby, you too. Don’t go out so often,” she reminded him

In fact, Qin Xiaoyao was most worried about her husband.

This was because her husband’s appearance was the most outstanding in the family, and so might even say he appeared sowhat androgynous.

If the mountain bandits saw him, they might even think that he was a woman in disguise.

She was a little worried that her husband’s looks would attract trouble…

Song Que nodded.

“You stick with too. Stay in the room,” he added.

He was regretting it now.

He shouldn’t have agreed to let his wife go back to her parents’ house to take care of her second sister-in-law.

It was too dangerous outside, and he was afraid that sothing would happen to his wife.

A look of hesitation flashed across Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes.

“I’ll try my best,” she responded.

At this mont, she also rembered what she had promised her second brother.

In the current situation, her maiden family would definitely be in more trouble.

Xiaohu still needed to be breastfed. The most ideal situation would be for her eldest sister-in-law to bring Xiaohu to live with the Liu family.

This way, her sister-in-law and Xiaohu wouldn’t run into any danger on the streets.

However, once her eldest sister-in-law left, there would be no woman left in the Qin family. Who would take care of her second sister-in-law then?

She wasn’t afraid of going back and forth between the houses of the Song and Qin families alone.

Instead, she was worried that sothing might happen to her maiden family when she was not around.

Song Que still wanted to say sothing, but when he saw his mother looking over, he did not continue.

It was only after he and Qin Xiaoyao returned to their room that Song Que brought up this matter to his wife.

“There might not be anything happening at sister-in-law’s place these few days. Why don’t you forget about going there?” After sitting at the writing desk for a long ti, Song Que finally spoke.

Qin Xiaoyao understood her husband’s worry, so she ca to Song Que’s side and squeezed into the chair beside him.

“No way.

“Second Brother has already told about this matter in advance, and I have also agreed.

“Right now, the Qin family is in dire need of helping hands. If I don’t go, what will Second Brother think of in the future?”

Song Que was silent.

Only then did Qin Xiaoyao reach out and grab Song Que’s hand.

“I’ll take the chance to go back to my maiden family’s house to take a look while the mountain bandits are still busy robbing the shops.

“I will let Father and my two brothers worry about the arrangents for Eldest Sister-in-law.

“I am thinking of sending Second Sister-in-law to Big Girl Li’s house.”

Only then did Song Que look at his wife.

“And send the midwife there as well,” Qin Xiaoyao continued.

The midwife lived between the Liu family and the Qin family. If Qin Xiaoyao paid her a bit more money, she should be able to engage the midwife successfully.

With a midwife around, follow-up care would be sowhat guaranteed when the two pregnant won gave birth.

Besides, Aunt Liu and Liu Xiaoi were still around in the Liu family’s house, so they could help to look after her second sister-in-law.

Song Que thought for a while and felt that his wife’s arrangent was quite reasonable.

“Fine. Then bring more money with you.” It didn’t matter if the Song family paid for the midwife themselves as long as his wife didn’t have to take any risks.

Qin Xiaoyao was a little touched when she heard this.

“Mm-hmm!” she answered Song Que in the affirmative.

Then, she quickly packed up and left the house.

With her exceptional alertness and decent martial skills, Qin Xiaoyao managed to bypass the mountain bandits in the town swiftly and arrived at Big Girl Li’s house.

When the Liu family saw Qin Xiaoyao, they were both surprised and happy.

This was particularly true for Liu Daniu.

He was worried about his wife’s impending childbirth, but there was no one who could discuss it with him and help him co up with ideas.

Now that Sister Sanya was here, he felt a lot more at ease.

“Long story short.” Qin Xiaoyao entered the hall and looked at the Liu family.

“I can fork out the money to pay for a midwife for Big Girl. But I have one condition.”

Liu Daniu’s eyes lit up.

“Sister Sanya, please speak!” he said hurriedly.

“I need to bring my second sister-in-law here as well.”

“When the ti cos, I’ll have to trouble you to help take care of her. Until things outside have cald down,” Qin Xiaoyao said.

The mbers of the Liu family were a little surprised.

However, after thinking for a while, they understood the key point.

“No problem! Let your father stay with Erniu, and Xiaoi will stay with ,” Aunt Liu suddenly said to Liu Daniu.

“After that, we’ll clear out Xiaoi’s room for Sanya’s second sister-in-law, and the midwife. Then we can all fit in!”

As she said this, Aunt Liu looked at Qin Xiaoyao.

“Sanya, you can just send her over. With and Xiaoi here, we’ll definitely be able to take good care of the two pregnant won.”

Under the current situation, Sanya would have to pay a lot of money to hire a midwife for her eldest daughter-in-law. Even if Sanya didn’t help to pay, now that she had approached them, the Liu family still had to lend a helping hand.

There was no other reason than the fact that the Liu family owed the Song family too many favors.

Liu Daniu nodded and turned to look at Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao was satisfied and gave the Liu family a few instructions.

She then turned down Liu Daniu’s offer to accompany her to the Qin family to pick up her second sister-in-law. After that, she left the Liu family’s place and headed back to the Qin family’s house.

Qin Xiaoyao moved fast and arrived at the Qin family’s house in no ti.

After knocking for a while, Qin Erhu ca to open the door.

When he saw his younger sister had arrived, he was both surprised and happy.

At Qin Xiaoyao’s request, Qin Erhu quickly brought her to et Qin Dazhuang and Qin Dahu.

“I’ll go straight to the point. Father, Brothers, you all should already know the situation outside by now.

“These are my suggestions. First, we send Eldest Sister-in-law to the Liu family’s place and let her and Xiaohu live there for a while until peace is restored in our Mountain Spring Town.

“Second, send Second Sister-in-law to Big Girl’s house and let the two pregnant won stay together. After that, I will send the midwife there too.

“I’ll pay for the midwife.”

The Qin family’s father and sons imdiately objected when they heard that.

Qin Xiaoyao quickly interrupted them.

“The situation is urgent. Don’t argue with about this.

“I have promised Second Brother to co back and help. But in this situation, the Song family can’t do without . I can only think of this thod..”
