Chapter 829 Strategic Countermeasures

Chinese cabbage, and even in the small vegetable garden, there weren't many cucumbers, eggplants or green beans. 。Now I'm a little regretful, if only I had divided one or two mu of land to grow veget..."Got it, big brother," Mao Ge replied with a smile, pulling not only Zheng Sanjiang but also Zheng Liu out.

Soon, they came back from outside carrying a stack of bowls and chopsticks, as well as a large pot of steaming hot meat-filled soup dumplings.

一個個湯圓浮在湯水上，又胖又圓，怎麼看怎麼讓人垂涎欲滴。

Baozhu cheered and was about to go up to help, but Mao Ge'er stopped her.

He quickly pointed outside and then called out loudly, "Come quick and fill up the bowls with tangyuan! Haha, I want two bowls, don't you dare try to steal any from me!"

Let's eat quickly, finish our bowls and chopsticks and return them. The auntie who sells tangyuan is still waiting outside.

"It's so cold today, taking kids out is really tough!"

Everyone understood and their faces changed.

Li Ge quickly said, "Have you given the money Give a little more when the time comes!"

"Oh, do I even need to say that As long as it's delicious, I'd give them all the money in my pocket!" Meow-ge continued to shout, straining his neck.

By this time, Jia Yin had quickly brought a pot of soup to boil. After a simple check, she whispered, "There's miwu grass in the soup. It's an ordinary pain reliever and will take about a quarter of an hour to work."

"It must have been a rush job. They weren't well-prepared and could only use this."

Meow-Ge excitedly clenched his fist and whispered, "The woman selling glutinous rice balls must be pretending. I smelled a faint scent of blood on her."

"The little girl being pulled was crying bitterly. She also said that the child was making a fuss wanting candied fruit, but whose child would make a fuss and cry and tremble at the same time! "

"Humph, you still want to fool me Dream on!"

If it were an ordinary day, people would definitely make a few jokes, but no one had the heart for that this time.

When faced with a great enemy, whether to confront them or evade them is a serious question!

Jia Ren narrowed his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the people in the room and the Lu family guards in the courtyard. He quickly began to calculate inside his mind.

Today, Jia Yin disguised herself as a maid and went out for a stroll. It was a spur-of-the-moment decision, so it couldn't have been leaked from her home.

But Li's family previously winning these two shops was common knowledge in Xin Du.

The Wu family must have planted spies nearby to keep an eye on us!

Just now, outside the shop, Baozhu realized that someone must have heard Jia Yin's exclamation "Jia Yin elder sister"!

This is a bustling marketplace, and it's broad daylight. Even the Wu family wouldn't dare to send too many people here to cause too much bloodshed.

So, the Wu family came up with this terrible idea to drug them, hoping to knock them unconscious and then take Jiayin away!

Otherwise, things will really get out of hand, and the Wu family will also find it hard to contain the situation.

After all, in their line of work, besides the four siblings, there were also Jia Xu, Baozhu, and Lu Zong, the Prince's son.

Having figured these things out, Jiaren let out a slight sigh of relief.

He touched the crossbow bolt on his arm and glanced at Zheng Sanjiang and Ye Shan. There were almost thirty guards from the Lu family in the courtyard.

If the arrangements are good, we can definitely keep the Wu family here!

Therefore, with this evidence in hand, there was no need to wait any longer at home...

Jiarren gritted his teeth and said hastily, "At this point, there's no time to hide. Let's just go all out."

In a while, they would pretend to be eating tangyuan in the courtyard. Funiu'er and Baozhu would stay inside the house. Mao Ge’r would lure people in and then shut the door and keep everyone out!

"Please, Shan Shu, protect Fu Niu'er and Bao Zhu in the house. Don't come out until things are over!"

Also, everyone figure out the timing and choose a suitable location to fall down. Wait for the other party's people to come in and counterattack in time, be sure to leave a way out alive.

Of course, the premise is to pay attention to safety and not get hurt!

Everyone nodded, their expressions excited as they immediately sprang into action.

Li Ge skillfully poured out half a basin of tangyuan, then filled each bowl with one or two, mashed them slightly, and made it look like they had eaten most of them.

Jia Yin thought for a moment, then she poured herself and Bao Zhu each a bowl. She sat at the table, with the door half open.

Ye Shan hid behind the door, pressed against the wall.

Unless you enter the house and take a closer look, you wouldn't even notice he was there.

Soon, the steamer of tangyuan was brought to the eaves of the corridor, and the guards in the courtyard also received the news.

People held their bowls, scattered in the courtyard, discussing loudly how delicious the tangyuan were while clamoring for more.

At this time, the cat young master opened the courtyard gate and greeted the woman selling tangyuan outside with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, these tangyuan are so delicious! One pot isn't enough. Why don't you bring the rest over and cook some more for us right here"

"We've got it all covered, you don't have to go around shouting about it anymore!"

The woman hesitated, as if somewhat uncertain.

But the cat, pretending not to see, lifted its head and gulped down the remaining noodle soup in the bowl, wiping its mouth with its sleeve in a hearty manner.

As expected, a look of joy flashed in the woman's eyes. She picked up her burden and pulled the silly little girl into the yard.

When she entered, everyone smiled and praised her with bowls in hand.

The woman quickly scanned the crowd. Seeing that everyone, even the guards, were eating, she felt increasingly at ease.

She skillfully helped everyone add tangyuan to their bowls, and even leaned towards the doorway, enthusiastically asking: "I also brought sweet tangyuan. Would you esteemed guests like to try some"

"Many ladies have tried it and loved it!"

Inside the house, Jia Yin and Bao Zhu were laughing. When they saw a woman peeking at them from the doorway, Jia Yin strode forward and glared arrogantly at the woman before slamming the door shut.

The woman was a little embarrassed and quickly retreated, taking the little girl into her arms, appearing innocent.

The little boy seemed to particularly like the little girl. He took out a few coins from his pocket and called her over, "Little sister, come here, brother will give you money, let's go buy candied haws later!"

The little girl looked to be four or five years old, with a vacant expression and not a word coming out of her.

"Brother Cat then asked, "Sister-in-law, is this child mute Has he always been like this Have you taken him to see a doctor"

A flicker of anxiety crossed the woman's eyes, wishing she could shut Cat-boy's mouth.

But at this crucial moment, she couldn't reveal her secret, so she could only reply: "Yes, this child has never spoken since he was young."

"I also came out to do some small business to raise money for her treatment."

Saying that, she shoved the little girl's back hard, and the little girl stumbled and fell in front of the cat.

Meow Ge'er shoved the copper coins into her hand, but he seemed unsteady, and one coin tumbled to the ground, rolling clumsily to the corner of the wall.

Then, Cat Brother grinned and led the little girl to pick it up. As soon as they reached the wall, Cat Brother's figure began to sway.

He patted his head, annoyed: "How come I suddenly feel dizzy!"

From afar, Jia Ren seemed to want to help him up but stumbled two steps, falling alongside Mao'er. He intentionally or unintentionally pressed the little girl down beneath him.

Their fall, like flipping a switch.

In the courtyard, people one after another dropped the bowls in their hands and fell to the ground with a clatter, unconscious.

The woman sneered and straightened her spine, taking a wooden whistle from her bosom and blowing three blasts.

Two burly men soon climbed over the courtyard wall again. all the food is gone, we'll discuss what to do.This way, everyone has something to do. No one can slack off or take it easy, and no one will tire out the Li family.The villagers buzzed with questions...
