Chapter 75: Convince Them

Hearing what the middle-aged woman said just now, A Lu Ge grabbed her hands, wanting to explain. Shaking his head, he said anxiously: "Auntie, she didn’t do anything. You misunderstood her. This well water is really poisonous."

The middle-aged woman looked at the anxious A Lu Ge, and then glared at Xu Xiang again.

"What did you do to Xiao Xiong?!" She asked angrily.

The reaction of the middle-aged woman was beyond Xu Xiang’s expectation. Before she could speak, the middle-aged woman was already calling for help.

"Help! Someone quickly came and arrested this outsider!" She kept shouting while protecting A Lu Ge behind her.

Seeing the reaction of the middle-aged woman, Xu Xiang was speechless.

"....." ’Hey, this Elder Sister. I did nothing to you. Why are you yelling for help like I’m a mass killer?’

It didn’t take long for people to rush towards them. They saw the middle-aged woman guarding A Lu Ge behind her, while she stared at Xu Xiang defensively. Before the middle-aged woman spoke, those people already surrounded Xu Xiang. Xu Xiang looked at them speechlessly and pinched the bridge of her nose while sighing.

One of the men looked at the middle-aged woman and asked, "What happened here? How did she get here?"

The middle-aged woman looked at the man and said, "I came to fetch water, and I found her here, standing by the well. Xiao Xiong didn’t let me use the well water because he thought the well water was poisonous."

When those people heard the middle-aged woman’s words, they all looked at Xu Xiang at once. Without using her brain, Xu Xiang can guess what they are thinking now. She looked at the anxious A Lu Ge and smiled at him.

She asked, "Look, what I said earlier is true, right?"

Although he is only nine years old, A Lu Ge already knows the importance of water sources. He rushed out from behind the middle-aged woman, stretched his arms and stood in front of Xu Xiang, clearly showing his protection for Xu Xiang who stood behind him.

He looked at everyone present and firmly said, "She didn’t poison the well water. She is trying to save us!"

The middle-aged woman looked at A Lu Ge in disbelief, and asked, "Why do you protect an outsider? What kind of medicine did she feed you to make you protect her like this?"

After finishing speaking, she shook her head and said again: "This won’t do. Xiao Xiong must be separated from that outsider!"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Xu Xiang and A Lu Ge in unison. Two men quickly grabbed A Lu Ge and pulled him away from Xu Xiang, while the others started to attack her.

"No! Don’t attack her!" A Lu Ge yelled, struggling to break free from the two men’s grasp.

Xu Xiang dodged their attacks and glanced at A Lu Ge. Watching the boy trying to stop them from attacking her, she canceled her plan to fight back. If she really fights back, these people will surely die.

She sighed and thought: ’I must have really owed this little boy in my previous life.’

Since she decided not to fight back, she let them arrest her and put her in the broken cage again. Sitting inside the wooden cage, she looked at A Lu Ge who was standing outside the cage.

"If you really want to save your people, you have to rely on yourself. Convince them. After they decide to trust me, you can come and find me." She said calmly.

A Lu Ge looked at her calm face and nodded. With determination in his eyes, he said, "Wait for me. I will convince them and come back to rescue you."

Feeling hungry, Xu Xiang took out one pack of lunch boxes and a bottle of juice from the space. She glanced at him and said, "You should go. Your father’s time is running out."

After finishing speaking, she began to eat. A Lu Ge looked at her for a few seconds, then turned to look for his elder brother. After eating her late dinner, Xu Xiang closed her eyes and concentrated on taking care of her farmland and orchard. She worked until she got a headache before taking her mind out of the space and falling asleep.

At the same time, outside a dilapidated temple, Xiao Shao was looking at a crescent moon hanging in the night sky. Behind him, his family and the Fan family were sleeping soundly. Standing there quietly, no one knows what he is thinking at the moment.

A few minutes later, an eagle flew over his head. He looked at the eagle hovering on top of him and raised his left arm. Seeing him raise his left arm, the eagle flew down and landed gently on his arm.

Xiao Shao saw the small bamboo tube tied to the eagle’s leg, took it off and released the eagle. He took out the little note from the small bamboo tube and looked at the contents on it. After a while, he threw the little note onto the bonfire.

As he watched the paper turn to ashes, he heard footsteps approaching. Without even looking at the man, he said, "Go back to sleep. I’ll be on guard tonight."

"Elder brother, did the hidden guard send a secret report just now?" Xiao Han asked while yawning.

Xiao Shao looked at his sleepy look, and answered with a hum. "Mhm."

Xiao Han stood beside him and asked, "What did they find?"

"Zhao Jue fed the Empress Dowager a slow-acting poison." He said calmly.

Xiao Han was furious when he heard what Xiao Shao said just now.

"How could he do this?! She is his biological mother!" He asked angrily.

Xiao Shao looked at him and said, "We have known his ruthless nature since we were young. It is not surprising that he can do such a thing. You should calm down and don’t let your emotions go to your head."

After hearing his elder brother’s reminders, Xiao Han calmed down a little bit and said, "I know."
