章節 33: Harm Me Deliberately
編輯: Atlas Studios
A woman who lived next door to the Chief recalled hearing An Jiuyue come by to look for him yesterday.
"When Jiuyue came to find Aunt Kang yesterday, I was picking vegetables in the yard. I heard her voice."
Her precious Bao'er had almost been swept away by the water just now. If it were not for An Jiuyue, her precious son that she had looked forward to having would have been gone. Her mother-in-law would bully her again.
She had to repay her kindness and tell him everything she knew.
"Jiuyue seemed to be here to talk about the Cascade River, but Aunt Kang couldn't stand Jiuyue and chased her away. She scolded her so badly! I heard everything."
"You—"
Upon hearing this, the Chief looked at his wife angrily.
This fool is such a hindrance!
If she had told me about this when I returned yesterday, the village will not have suffered such heavy losses.
Although he might doubt An Jiuyue's words and not follow her advice if he had found out earlier, at the very least, he would be the one to blame instead.
However, the past was in the past, and it turned out that his wife was at fault for not telling him the truth. How could he not be angry?
"Mother, how can you do that? This is a big matter. It's better to believe it than not to ignore it!" The son of the Chief said unhappily, noticing the guilt on his mother's face.
If they had known in advance, they could have organized people to store food on the mountain. They wouldn't have been caught off guard.
"I… I didn't know either."
Aunt Kang did not know that she was wrong. She felt that An Jiuyue had harmed her deliberately.
"Everyone knows that that little b*tch is always seducing men. How would I know why she came to our house? Maybe she was here to look for your younger brother."
She was enraged as she thought about how An Jiuyue had gone to the Junior Officer's house after coming by hers yesterday. If the village's Junior Officer had not known about this, she could have insisted that An Jiuyue never came.
"I think she's trying to harm me deliberately. If she hadn't come to my house, there wouldn't have been so much trouble. She came to set me up me on purpose because I didn't agree to her relationship with your brother."
That's right. If An Jiuyue was not at our house yesterday, I won't have to be scolded by my husband in front of so many people today.
Does she think I want to be in this situation?
"You—"
The Chief was so angry he almost vomited blood.
The entire village is completely flooded, and we have no food at all. How can she not realize her mistake?
"Things have already turned out like this, and you're still spouting nonsense. When did An Jiuyue ever come to our house to look for our second son? Never! If you dare to tarnish Jiuyue's reputation again, I will punish you!"
"We're lucky that we're close to the Junior Officer."
Some people secretly heaved a sigh of relief as they looked at Aunt Kang.
Aunt Ju had told them yesterday that they should not wait for the Junior Officer's return before taking action. Hence, they carried a lot of grain into the cave in the mountain.
It didn't matter if they weren't sure if there was going to be a flood. It would only take them some effort to carry the food up to the mountain anyway. If the flood really destroyed all their crops, everyone would starve. Nobody would want that.
"Logically speaking, even if a flood may not occur, we should still be on guard. I didn't expect Aunt Kang to hide this matter just because she opposed An Jiuyue."
