The river bank is not completely unobstructed. There are weeds, reeds, and piles of wild grass...

Butcher Cao’s steps were light, and the murderous intent in his one eye was no longer concealed.

Although the young woman was beautiful, he suppressed his lustful thoughts for the sake of his son.

My son said that when he becomes successful in the future, he can marry as many concubines as he wants.

He also said that when he held a high position in the future, he would marry any of those young ladies from official families as concubines.

Why should he care about a country woman who is still a faded flower? He suddenly understood, and his determination to win Zhao Susu turned into a strong murderous intent.

If Zhao Susu is killed, his son will be successful, and he will be able to go to the provincial capital, the capital, and other places where rich people go, where there will be many young girls waiting for him.

At this moment, Zhao Susu suddenly seemed to sense something, and she turned around suddenly while concentrating on washing clothes.

Butcher Cao was only four feet away from her.

Zhao Susu was startled and shouted: "You, what are you going to do?"

Butcher Cao sneered, his eyes were full of ferocity, and his words were as vicious as a venomous snake: "Zhao Susu, you are blocking my son's path to promotion and wealth, go to hell!"

As he spoke, he quickened his pace and approached.

Zhao Susu was so scared that she stepped back hastily, with one foot entering the water.

Butcher Cao stepped forward quickly and grabbed it.

Zhao Susu screamed: "You, you killed me, you will also pay with your life..." She saw the murderous light in Cao the Butcher's eyes, and she really didn't understand how a person could be so evil? He was going to kill her without provoking her.

"Hehe, you fell into the river and drowned, what does it have to do with me?" Butcher Cao sneered.

Zhao Susu understood his vicious intentions. He wanted to push her into the water and let her drown.

She screamed, "Help..." and subconsciously wanted to escape, but there was a river behind her and she couldn't swim! In order to wash her clothes, she was on a rock surrounded by water on three sides. Now there was no escape, no way to avoid it, and this place had become her dead end!

There was no one by the river in the early morning, and no one would hear her cries.

Zhao Susu was completely dumbfounded.

She was terrified, her mind went blank. She knew she couldn't swim, so she didn't dare to retreat. She just squatted down with her head in her arms subconsciously. It seemed that if she held her head and didn't look, the danger would be smaller and farther away.

She knew that this action was useless and that since the evil man Cao the Butcher wanted to kill her, she could not escape.

But she didn't know what else to do besides this.

She is going to die, and she can’t bear to leave A Yu!

"Splash" a splash of water appeared on the surface of the river, and then there was no sound.

For a long while, there was no movement around her, no voice, and no one came to push her.

Zhao Susu raised her eyes in confusion.

The wind is blowing gently and the water is gurgling!

There was no one at all, no Cao the Butcher, and no pair of murderous eyes.

Was she having a sudden attack of hypochondria?

Was everything that just happened a dream?

But what kind of dream could she have in broad daylight?

She tried hard to recall. No, Butcher Cao really wanted to kill her. Everything that just happened was not a dream. When she squatted down with her head in her hands, she seemed to hear a sound of someone falling into the water?

Could it be that Butcher Cao was playing a joke on her?

She didn't see that just now, the butcher Cao, who was rushing towards her with murderous eyes, suddenly stiffened, paused, and then fell into the river like a kite with a broken string.

Like a heavy cloth bag filled with mud, it fell into the water and flowed away with the current.

Just when Zhao Susu was confused, puzzled, and frightened, she saw a small figure running towards her.

"Ayu..." Zhao Susu called out, her voice changing tone.

Meng Yu held a long bamboo tube in his hand.

She looked at the water surface, then at the bamboo tube in Meng Yu's hand, and suddenly remembered that day, A Yu also used such a bamboo tube to drive away Cao Wangcai.

Suddenly, her face changed, and she ran towards Meng Yu in panic, but Meng Yu reminded her: "Mother, clothes!"

Zhao Susu turned back again, hurriedly put away the clothes, held the basin under her ribs with one hand, held Meng Yu's hand with the other, and hurried home.

There is no one on the road yet.

She ran very fast, luckily Meng Yu could keep up with her.

After they entered the yard and closed the gate, he threw the laundry basin casually in the yard, then pulled Meng Yu into the house and closed the door. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, she turned around, squatted down in front of Meng Yu, and held her small shoulders with both hands: "Ayu, what did you see just now?"

Meng Yu looked at her calmly, "That butcher wanted to push my mother into the water and let her drown!"

"So what did you... do?"

"I blew mud beads at him and he fell into the river!"

Zhao Susu's pupils shrank. When she saw the bamboo tube, she thought of this. It was indeed true.

Her face turned serious and she said sternly, "Ayu, listen to me. You must forget what happened just now and don't tell anyone! I didn't go to the river to wash clothes, and you didn't hit him with mud beads! Remember?"

Meng Yu paused and nodded.

Zhao Susu then let her go, but she seemed to have no strength in her legs and sat down on the ground.

It was as if all the strength in my body was drained away, and tears started streaming down my cheeks again.

It didn't matter if Butcher Cao fell into the river. Taohua Village was next to the Baiyu River, and the men and women in the village had known how to swim since childhood.

Zhao Susu doesn't know how to swim because she is not from Taohua Village, or even from Baiwu Town.

But last time, Butcher Cao failed to harm her, and this time he even wants to kill her. When will this end?

She cried silently. The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. The more she thought about it, the more hateful she became. Her whole body began to tremble slightly.

Meng Yu stood up, stretched out his hand, wiped her tears, and suddenly said: "Mom, what did the butcher say when he was about to kill you?"

Zhao Susu was startled, then murmured: "He, he said that I blocked his son's path to promotion and wealth..."

A cold light flashed in Meng Yu's eyes.

She was sure that this was what Cao Shuqing meant.

The reborn dog found out that the biggest variable in his rebirth was that his mother was not dead. So, he wanted everything to be the same as in his previous life, so he asked Cao the butcher to kill his mother and make it look like an accident.

If she hadn't felt that she was being followed several times and sensed the malicious intent, and hadn't been more careful, her mother might have really died this time.

There was no one by the river. Butcher Cao pushed my mother into the water and left without a trace.

What a vicious mind.

Is someone like Cao Shuqing worthy of being the male protagonist in the book?

A surge of anger surged in Meng Yu's heart.

Cao Shuqing wanted to continue sucking her blood to become successful like in his previous life, but he was dreaming!

Meng Yu looked at Zhao Susu, who was still trembling with fear, and comforted her in a childish voice: "Mom, don't listen to what the bad guys say!"

Zhao Susu held Meng Yu's small body in her arms, and the trembling slowly stopped.

There is still fear.

Thinking that Cao the Butcher had already fallen into the water, but there was not even a bubble on the surface, he must have sunk to the bottom of the river. Her face turned pale again: "Will he, will he die?"
