Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

However, before she could utter a curse, a cat meowed outside the yard, followed by a wolf howl.

Hearing the familiar voice, Liu Yu felt inexplicably at ease.

He has indeed considered himself a man over the years, but he has always just been a guy. Against these seven or eight men, he is no match at all.

It now seems that it was Xiao Hei who brought those two wolves.

But seeing the axes in their hands, Liu Yu worried that the two wolves might get hurt.

He figured the two wolves were probably arriving soon, so he shouted loudly to the group:

"You've trespassed on my property and damaged my gate. I can report you to the authorities and have you arrested."

Everyone's attention was instantly diverted by him, and the Queen Mother angrily put her hands on her hips and cursed:

"What nonsense are you spouting, you little bitch? My son is destined to be a top scholar. It's all because of that ugly thing Chi Xing that he dared to hurt my son."

"Where's Akahoshi? Call him out here and make him pay! Otherwise, we'll smash this place to pieces."

With so many people here, Liu Yu naturally wouldn't say that Chi Xing wasn't there, but instead looked out of the courtyard.

The next instant, two wolves rushed out of the bushes and charged at the men behind them, biting their thighs and causing their heads to shake and their mouths to be full of blood.

"Aaaaaah, wolf!"

Several men around Wang Zhou's age were pinned to the ground and torn apart by the two wolves. The bites left them bloody and mangled, and they screamed in agony.

"Oh, my son!"

The Queen Mother screamed in fright and grabbed a stick from the ground to try and drive the two wolves away.

The others reacted quickly, raising their axes in an attempt to kill the wolf.

Liu Yu was terrified. Just as the man raised his axe to swing at the wolf, he couldn't help but shout, "Watch out!"

As if knowing Liu Yu was calling them, the wolves dodged the axe that was coming at them.

The man was clearly in a panic and acted haphazardly. After the wolf dodged, the axe happened to strike the man's thigh, which had just been bitten.

Then came another heart-wrenching scream, and blood splattered onto the wolf.

The men panicked even more. Uncle Wang and his third uncle didn't care about anything else and dragged the injured man down the mountain.

When the Queen Mother saw her eldest son's leg, which had been slashed, she burst into tears.

"Awooo!" Another wolf howl rang out, and the two wolves, as if annoyed by her noise, pounced on her and began to tear her apart.

But as if it possessed a spirit, it did not bite the person to death.

Liu Yu watched as the two wolves returned to his side. The Wang family members were almost covered in blood, but it was not hard to tell that their injuries were not fatal.

As for the one who was injured by the axe, since he didn't do it himself, Liu Yu didn't care whether they lived or died.

After everyone had come down the mountain, the two wolves still stood imposingly on either side of Liu Yu, while the little black cat was lying on the stove in the kitchen, watching Liu Guihua make pancakes.

The little black cat had blocked out all the sounds, so Liu Guihua didn't hear them. All she knew was that someone had come looking for her.

Liu Yu lowered his head and tentatively tried to touch the wolf's head. As soon as he reached out his hand, the two wolves nuzzled their heads against him, as if they were being affectionate.

Liu Yu was amused and her eyes crinkled into a smile. She couldn't help but praise, "You're really amazing."

Seeing the bloodstains on them, Liu Yu called them to the well and personally drew water to wash them clean.

Liu Yu also checked if they were injured; these were raised by her husband, so they couldn't be hurt.

"Be careful next time, and don't get hurt."

The two wolves howled softly to indicate that they had heard.

Liu Yu patted their heads again: "So good."

Not long after, Akahoshi returned.

Liu Yu hurriedly went up to him and asked if everything went smoothly. Chi Xing told him everything that had happened in the county town.

"I'll move out in a couple of days."

Liu Yu was overjoyed, but still complained to Chi Xing that the Wang family had damaged the gate to their yard, though they hadn't gotten anything out of it.

"Thanks to Dahei and Erhei, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."

Liu Yu still feels lingering fear when she talks about it.

Chixing held his hand reassuringly: "It'll be alright. I keep them to guard the house. They were just playing and came back late."

Liu Yu shook her head: "They are very powerful."

He was worried that the Wang family might come back to cause trouble, but it was clear that he was overthinking it.

After the Wang family came down the mountain, they went to the village chief to complain, saying that Chixing and Liu Yu had released wolves to bite people, and that they wanted to organize the villagers to go up the mountain to kill the wolves and demand that Chixing pay them compensation.

But the villagers still vividly remember what happened that evening. Those ferocious wolves and tigers were not to be trifled with; they were not people they could kill just because they wanted to.

Besides, they're almost healed from their injuries. What if they get bitten to death if we provoke them now?

Before the village chief could even express his opinion, others stood up to object.

"Go by yourselves, don't drag us into it."

"That's right, those are wolves and tigers, you think you can just kill them like that? If you're so capable, go and do it yourselves."

No one supported the Wang family's proposal, and the Wang family had to swallow this bitter pill.

After waking up, the mother lay in bed cursing and swearing. Her wounds hurt, and she felt even more heartbroken seeing her eldest son so badly injured.

The other two families were also injured to varying degrees, and they all asked Old Lady Wang for money to treat their illnesses.

The town doctor came to the Wang family again, and in the end even left with several bags of fine grains. All of the Wang family's savings over the years had been spent on medical treatment.

The Queen Mother has gone from scolding Liu Yu and Chi Xing to now scolding Wang Zhou the moment she opens her mouth.

"It's all your fault! What kind of idea was this? We told you before that their family was protected by wolves, but you didn't believe us and insisted that we go up there. Now you're happy? You've managed to kill our family."

The other two families also began to blame Wang Zhou, saying it was all his fault.

Wang Zhou's older brother was bitten on the leg and chopped with an axe. His sister-in-law was crying uncontrollably.

"Over the years, our family has given him all our money, and now our whole family is injured like this because of him. Is he a god of literature descended to earth or a jinx?"

In the past, if she had dared to say such things, she would have been scolded by her husband. But today, Brother Wang was also silent. He was also thinking about whether Wang Zhou could lead them to enjoy wealth and luxury.

A few days later, Akahoshi moved to the county town with her husband and mother-in-law.

After they became familiar with their surroundings, Akahoshi took them to buy fabric to make clothes.

When they returned to the fabric shop, the proprietress immediately recognized Liu Guihua because of her excellent embroidery skills. The proprietress even asked her if she could still embroider handkerchiefs in the future.

Liu Guihua could embroider flowers so lifelike that even butterflies would stop to look at them. Many noblewomen and young ladies in the county town loved her.

This fabric shop has been out of stock for a long time. If Liu Guihua is willing to continue doing embroidery, the owner is willing to offer a higher price than before.

Liu Guihua agreed without much thought. If she hadn't spent all her money on medicine, she wouldn't have been unable to afford even embroidery thread.

Now that she has settled down, embroidering handkerchiefs in her spare time is as simple as cooking for her every day.
