The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

Qin Haowen immediately picked up the crossbow and shot at the woman.

"Mom! Be careful!"

Liu Miao's desperate screams made her mother turn her body and head to look at Liu Miao, but the next second a sharp arrow pierced her chest and nailed it to the big tree next to her.

All the villagers in Liujia Village were so frightened by the sound of breaking air that they stood there in a daze. For a moment, they forgot what they were doing and were beaten up by the people led by Yu Tian.

When Village Chief Liu saw his wife being shot dead, his eyes were red and he begged for mercy loudly, "We won't rob anymore, please let us go."

Yu Tian became even more arrogant when he saw Qin Haowen. "You guys just said you don't want to steal, so why not? We haven't fought enough yet, come on! Keep going! Keep scolding my sister and keep stealing the water!"

Village chief Liu looked at his old wife's eyes which were open in death, and felt so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe. He wanted to fight these people to the death, but as the head of the village, he couldn't let the villagers die with him.

"We know we were wrong and we won't rob again. Please let us go. We will definitely stay away from you. Please!"

The villagers, whose faces were bruised and swollen from being beaten, watched the strong men with crossbows slowly surround them. They were so scared that they begged for mercy again and again, "Please let us go. We have wives and children at home. We just want some water to survive."

Yu Shi snorted coldly, "You want to live, so you come and steal our things? Do we deserve to die?"

Yu Tian echoed, "My sister said early on that if you had spoken nicely, she might have been able to give you the solution, but what did you do? You started by insulting me and wanted my sister dead. It's a pity that my sister will live a long life, but it's not certain whether you can survive."

The people of Liujia Village were truly filled with regret. Village Chief Liu even knelt on the ground, regretting that he had broken off the engagement with the Yu family by kicking them when they were down. He even regretted that he had wanted to humiliate and suppress the Yu family the moment they met, and had allowed his wife and daughter to say such insulting words...

At this moment, Liu Miao suddenly stood out from the crowd, his eyes full of resentment and unwillingness.

"Yu Shi, I know I was the one who wronged you, but my mother did nothing wrong. You could deliberately target me, but why did you kill my mother? Why didn't you die?"

Yu Shi frowned as he looked at the tearful girl in front of him. He felt as if he had been blind before. No, his eyesight seemed to have never been better.

"Liu Miao! Clear your mind. It was clearly you who started the trouble. It was clearly your mother who wanted to destroy the clean water we worked so hard to produce. Why do you think it's all my resentment towards you?"

"I'm telling you, I did think you were great at first, but I didn't absolutely need you. I only agreed to marry you to reassure my mother and sister."

"Believe it or not, I even breathed a sigh of relief when your family came to cancel the engagement."

Liu Miao didn't believe it at all. She shouted at the top of her lungs, "Then why did you come to me?"

Yu Shi sneered, "I came to you just to tell you that my sister is not as bad as you say. I want to ask, as a woman like her, why did you say such vicious words?"

"A woman's innocence is never hidden beneath her skirt. My sister said this because she wanted to encourage the thousands of women who have been hurt like her to stand up bravely and live well..."

Liu Miao couldn't believe it, "You've never liked me."

Yu Shi sighed. He finally understood what his sister said: Don’t argue with a fool.

This person only has love in his head.

Village Chief Liu was afraid that her daughter would continue to speak and anger the other party, so she quickly pulled her daughter's sleeve and kowtowed to the person opposite, "We were really wrong..."

He wanted to say something soft, but Qin Haowen glanced at him coldly and said, "Get lost!"

Village chief Liu was stunned for a moment, and after he reacted, he quickly pulled the villagers back. This time, they didn't even dare to get involved in the mud or water.

On the other hand, Yu Dehou took his men to search around and around, and even walked back a long way, but still could not find the sapling.

Everyone knows what will happen to a child left alone in this chaotic world...

After all, at this time, people can no longer be called human beings. Those who have eaten human flesh will only call others two-legged sheep and treat them as food...

Three of the Shu family members fainted on the spot when they saw that everyone had gained nothing.

All the villagers were shrouded in sadness.

Every time Yu Ruyue woke up, the carriage had already rumbled forward. She opened the curtain and a wave of heat hit her face. The stuffy feeling made her feel a little breathless.

The people outside lowered their heads, and the exposed skin was black and red, even cracked and peeling like the earth, and their clothes were already soaked with sweat.

It is clearly autumn, but the temperature is like midsummer, and it's almost roasted.

"Rugetsu!? Are you awake? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Liang Shulan's worried question brought Yu Ruyue back to her senses. "Are you feeling well? What happened yesterday?"

"Haowen was worried that you might get too excited and hurt yourself, so he pressed the sleeping point on you... As for Xiaoshumiao, we've been looking for him all night but haven't found him..."

Yu Ruyue's heart skipped a beat, as if it were being pricked by a needle, throbbing with pain...

"That child... is gone just like that."

Liang Shulan pursed her lips, feeling uncomfortable.

She was about to open her mouth to comfort him when she suddenly heard a gurgling sound from behind.

The carriage stopped immediately. Yu Ruyue opened the curtain and was about to jump out when Qin Haowen quickly reached out to help her down. Yu Ruyue didn't think much of it. After all, every time she got off the carriage, her brother and father would even carry her down directly, as if she were some fragile porcelain.

After she came down, she walked directly towards the source of the sound.

Liang Shulan looked at Qin Haowen, whose eyes were always on her daughter, sighed, and walked over there.

"Master!"

"father!"

"What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

"Son, get up and look at your parents. What happened to you?"

Yu Ruyue pushed through the crowd and walked forward to see a big man with a red face lying on the ground with the rope of the cart hanging on his body.

She squatted down and touched the big man's forehead, which was extremely hot.

Shen Yuyan also ran over with a medicine box, "It's bad! This is a heat stroke. Some patients will have vomiting and diarrhea, and some will have a fever. We must quickly reduce the temperature."

The villagers nearby immediately helped lift the strong man onto the cart.

The old couple sitting upstairs pounded their legs and cried uncontrollably, "My son, it's all our fault, these two old guys. Why are your legs so useless?"

"Big Boss's wife, please leave the two of us behind. We don't have much time left to live anyway. Just take Big Boss and move on."

"We don't want to burden you any more."

When the woman heard this, she burst into tears. "Dad and Mom, what are you talking about? My husband would rather die of illness than abandon you two. As their daughter-in-law, I naturally won't abandon my own parents!"

The words "Dear father and mother" made the old couple cry even harder...

The woman finished speaking and looked at Yu Ruyue with a determined gaze. "Ruyue! Let's go! There's no need to waste time on us. I still have some strength left. I can pull them and I'm sure I can catch up with you."
