Chapter 1168: Reporting to the Authorities
Even if she had to sell herself as a slave, Madam Zhao was unwilling to stay here anymore. She begged Little Treasure to bring them out of the village.
Little Bear ran in with dew all over his body and looked at Little Treasure eagerly. Little Treasure nodded and said, "Auntie Zhao, don’t worry. We’re going to the county next and I can take you and your daughter with us. I’ll get someone to report it to the authorities immediately. Go back and pack your luggage. We’ll leave tomorrow."
Little Bear wandered around at the side and said, "Considering they have bad intentions, it’s best to keep them in the dark and act quietly before the authorities arrive."
Madam Zhao kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Young Masters. I know I have to keep it a secret. I definitely won’t reveal it before the authorities arrive."
Otherwise, the entire village would probably surround them.
After the three of them finished planning, Little Treasure gave Madam Zhao some reminders before she opened the door and left.
At this moment, the morning sun had already risen, and the sky was dyed red. As cold and fresh air surged into his chest, Little Treasure felt that the pent-up anger from the night had finally dissipated a little.
The village chief quickly brought Patriarch Zhang over to ask for the mother-and-daughter duo.
Little Treasure didn’t stop them from seeing Madam Zhao and her daughter. He only said worriedly, "As Niuniu hasn’t woken up yet, the doctor said that it’s not appropriate to move her around. Since she still has to take acupuncture and medicine later, why don’t you stay here for now and carry her away only after she wakes up?" He did not mention a word of the cause of Niuniu’s suffocation.
The village chief heaved a sigh of relief and quickly agreed, before asking Little Treasure indirectly when he was planning to leave.
