Chapter 4 Visitors from the Marquis' Mansion
"Miss Mu, we've been ordered to come to Mu Village to investigate. I heard that you and your maid often go up the mountain. May I ask if you two have been up the mountain in the past six days?"
Xiao Tao stood aside, a little nervous. Mu Xiyue replied calmly, "Yes, five days ago, Xiao Tao and I went up the mountain to pick mushrooms and dig wild vegetables."
The bailiff asked again, "What time did you two ascend the mountain? What time did you descend? Did you hear any unusual noises? Or did you meet anyone?"
Mu Xiyue thought for a moment and said, "We went up the mountain after lunch, around noon. We came down the mountain around the end of the afternoon. I remember the sun was almost setting when we got home. We met two people on the mountain: Uncle Mu from the front of the village and the eldest brother of the Qian family. It seems that the eldest brother of the Qian family even shot a wild rabbit."
The two people Mu Xiyue mentioned were the ones they met shortly after they entered the mountain, but they later took different paths and didn't meet again.
The yamen runners questioned each house at the front of the village, and also asked the two people mentioned by Mu Xiyue. The two people also told about their encounter with Mu Xiyue.
These were just routine questions. Those dead bodies were not something that ordinary people could come into contact with. The yamen runners also knew that if those people really encountered villagers during the fight, the villagers would probably have been killed long ago.
After the bailiff finished questioning and left, the cooked noodles had already clumped together. However, Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao had both experienced hardships, so they didn't waste it. Fortunately, there was still noodle soup in the pot, so they added some soup and ate the noodles.
Because more than a dozen bodies were carried out of the mountain at once, fewer people went up the mountain in the following few days. Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao didn't mind. They went up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots for several days in a row, leaving a large amount of fresh bamboo shoots in their space. Taking advantage of the good weather, they also dried a lot of bamboo shoots.
The villagers in the village all have land and are busy planting in the spring. Mu Xiyue has no land, so she has more time to dig bamboo shoots and look for mountain products. Anyway, she has a lot of space and can keep them fresh. She can pick more mushrooms, black fungus, etc., and go up the mountain less often when the weather gets hot.
Half a month had passed like this. The two hadn't hunted wild boars for a long time, and the meat they had saved in their space was almost gone. So early this morning, they went up the mountain to hunt wild boars.
The two men had already figured out exactly where the wild boars were most common on this mountain. They quickly found traces of the wild boars after entering deep into the forest. Before noon, they had hunted a wild boar weighing three or four hundred kilograms.
The two men directly tied a rope around the wild boar and put it into the space. They waited until they reached the edge of the forest before moving the wild boar out of the space, and then pulled the rope to drag the wild boar down the mountain.
Others call Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao strong women. Two big men can't even drag such a wild boar down the mountain, but two girls can drag it down the mountain. Aren't they strong women?
Mu Xiyue, who has superpowers, is indeed much stronger than an ordinary person, but not strong enough to drag such a big wild boar down the mountain. It mainly depends on the two of them using their wind superpowers to pull the wild boar.
When the two men dragged the wild boar home, they saw a carriage parked at the door. Although the carriage didn't look very luxurious, it was rare in this village. Standing next to the carriage were two men and two women. The two men looked like servants, and the two women, one in his thirties or forties and the other fifteen or sixteen, were dressed like wealthy people from the city.
Seeing Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao dragging the wild boar back, the four of them were stunned. Mu Xiyue looked at the four people who seemed to be waiting for her, raised an eyebrow and said, "Who are you? What are you doing in front of my house?"
The four of them came to their senses, and the old woman said in a haughty voice, "Miss, I am Nanny Chen, who works for the Marquis' wife. I am here to take you back to the mansion today."
"Go back home?" Mu Xiyue frowned. "Who asked you to come?"
Nanny Chen said, "Of course it's the Marquis and his wife. His wife is kind-hearted and has been thinking about the young lady all these years. She doesn't want her to waste her youth in the countryside, so she sent this old servant to take you back to the mansion."
Mu Xiyue was not interested in the original owner's home in the capital. It was so nice to live in the countryside, free and easy.
"No, Nanny Chen, go back. Xiaotao, go boil some water. We'll kill the pig later."
Nanny Chen was obviously dissatisfied with Mu Xiyue's attitude and scolded her harshly, "Miss, it's not up to you to decide whether to return to the mansion or not. The Marquis and the Madam ordered us to take you back, so you must go back."
Mu Xiyue grabbed Nanny Chen's neck and said, "Say it again, you're showing off in front of me. Are you not planning on going back alive?"
Nanny Chen only felt that the hand on her neck was slowly tightening like a pair of pliers. She was so scared that she kept slapping Mu Xiyue's hand and making a whimpering sound.
The little girl who came with her was so scared that she was trembling, and her voice was shaking. "Miss, let go of Nanny Chen quickly. If you hurt Nanny Chen, Madam Chen will not forgive you."
The two men wanted to step forward and grab Mu Xiyue, but were frightened by Mu Xiyue's sharp eyes and took a step back.
Mu Xiyue was too lazy to waste time with these people. She waved her hand and Nanny Chen fell to the ground.
"Get lost! If I can kill wild boars, I can kill you too."
Nanny Chen took a few deep breaths and shrilly ordered the two servants who had come with her, "Hurry up and arrest the young lady."
Xiao Tao originally wanted to boil water, but when she saw the young lady getting angry, she didn't go into the house. When she saw the two servants trying to catch the young lady, she pushed her hand and a gust of wind shot out from her palm, knocking the two servants to the ground.
"Didn't you hear the lady tell you to get out? If your ears are not good, I can cut them off for you."
The two servants thought that Xiaotao was using her internal force to push them down from a distance. Fear appeared in their eyes. This girl was too terrifying. How could her internal force be so strong?
Nanny Chen also understood that the young lady and her two companions were able to kill such a big wild boar and drag it back, and the four of them were definitely no match for them. She got up from the ground and thought for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go," and climbed into the carriage and told everyone to go back.
Although this was the end of the village, Nanny Chen and the other three had been waiting in front of Mu Meiyue's house for an hour or so, so naturally some villagers had seen them.
At this time, there were a few people standing not far away watching the fun. They dared to talk in a low voice only after seeing Nanny Chen's carriage go away.
Mu Xiyue ignored the onlookers. She and Xiaotao boiled water and slaughtered the pig.
Mu Xiyue, a seventeen-year-old girl, can kill pigs. This is one of the reasons why the villagers dare not approach her. Not all men can kill pigs, let alone a little girl.
Mu Xiyue is not the original owner. In her previous life in the apocalypse, killing and decomposing mutant beasts was a common occurrence for her. Killing a wild boar was no problem at all for her.
By the time the wild boar was cut up, it was already dinner time. Mu Xiyue left a small amount of meat outside and put the rest into the space.
During dinner, Xiao Tao said worriedly, "Miss, why did the master and the stepmother suddenly want to take you back? Will they come again tomorrow?"
Mu Xiyue put a piece of pork ribs in her bowl and said, "I don't know, it's probably not a good thing. It's not like she has a guilty conscience. Look at that Nanny Chen, she didn't show any respect to me when she saw me. That means she didn't take me back to be a young lady. Anyway, we're not going back, so if they come, we can just beat them out."
