Chapter 1493: Chapter 1315 Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

"Fine, since she and Auntie Zhao from the Zhao family don’t get along anyway," thought Lady, "Axiang would only get bullied if she went to their place. After all, Axiang is my flesh and blood, I can’t push her to her death."

So she became anxious, "You don’t want to get beaten, and you don’t want to go back to the Zhao family, what else can you do? Besides, before they come, why don’t you and Dabao run away as soon as possible? The farther, the better, and don’t ever come back."

"Run away?" Axiang was surprised by the widow Chen’s suggestion.

But where could they run to? Dabao, being who he was, could live a calm life in Peach Blossom Village, but outside, who knows how people might bully him? She was also soft-hearted, what could she do out there?

"Mother, we won’t run away. Justice lies in people’s hearts. I definitely won’t run."

"You child," Widow Chen said, "are you just going to stay here and wait for death?"

"..."

As they were talking back and forth, they saw a group of people coming from a distance, led by the village chief. Behind the village chief were some of the strong men of the village, whom various families had sent to stand by the chief’s side should he need anything done.

Widow Chen saw them and couldn’t help exclaiming, "Oh no, Axiang, hurry inside and hide. I’ll guard the door. If they dare to touch you, they’ll have to step over my dead body!"

Axiang looked blankly at Widow Chen, and said with some astonishment, "Mother, what are you doing? Didn’t you always wish I were dead?"

"What are you talking about? When have I ever wished you dead? I was harsh to you before, but that was because... Oh, never mind, think whatever you want. Anyway, I’m still counting on you to support me in my old age. You are my daughter. I can hit you and scold you, but no one else can treat you like that," Widow Chen pushed Axiang inside while she spoke.

After she pushed Axiang in, Widow Chen stood guard outside. "Village Chief, everyone says you are fair and just. You can’t just take Axiang away from our family just because of a few words from Auntie Zhao. If you do that, who will respect you in the future?"

The village chief had arrived in front of Widow Chen, and she too was in a difficult situation. "Ah, I have no choice. There are national laws and village rules. As the chief, I must follow the usual procedures. No one can break these precedents. Just let Axiang come out."

Axiang inside the courtyard heard everything loud and clear. Though she was normally timid, she didn’t panic this time.

If she had to suffer a bit to completely break away from the Zhao family, then she was willing. After the storm passes, as long as she survives, she would be reborn.

So, what was there to fear?

She simply went to change her clothes and brace herself before opening the door to come outside.

The village chief and the others were waiting for her, and only Widow Chen reproached her, "Didn’t I tell you not to come out? Why did you still come?"

Axiang didn’t pay attention to Widow Chen, but looked at the village chief, "Village Chief, I can go with you to the Commune."

The village chief also felt a sense of guilt. "All right, since you’re not afraid, let’s go. You are a good girl, it’s just a pity, life has been too hard on you."

Axiang gave a bitter smile.

Not far away, Dabao happened to come back from chopping wood in the mountains, and seeing the situation, he knew it was bad. He immediately dropped the wood and ran, standing in front of Axiang, not letting anyone touch her or take her away.
