A peasant girl with a special ability uses herself and two wolves to escape famine!

When they discovered that someone was stealing their water, and it was those three scoundrels from the Xia family, they were furious!

The sticks rained down on the Xia family father and son, and two sharp-eyed old women even snatched the water buckets from their hands.

"Shameless Xia Dayu, if you want water, can't you just fetch it from the well yourself? You dare to steal from us!" As he spoke, he swung the stick harder.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting!"

"It hurts!"

"You old hag, stop right now! Or I'll get rough!"

Xia Dayu was furious after being beaten, and the joy of drinking his fill of water vanished completely. He then threatened her.

Yoho!

You dare to curse them? Are thieves this brazen these days?

"Old ladies, beat him! Beat him until he gives in!"

"Hit him! Kill him!"

The courtyard was filled with wails of pain. These old shrewish women were so ruthless, even more vicious than his mother (grandmother)!

"Help, help!"

"We won't dare again, we'll never dare again!"

"stop fighting!"

Xia Yaozu was the smartest, always hiding between his father and younger brother, so he received the fewest beatings.

"I'll beat you to death, you little bastard! That'll teach you to behave badly!"

The pleas for mercy from the Xia family father and son did not stop the angry old women; instead, they beat them even more fiercely.

"Hmph, you've been stealing water, I'll teach you a lesson today!" an old woman said, hitting and cursing at the same time.

Xia Dayu was beaten black and blue, his heart filled with resentment and anger. He never expected that stealing water would lead to such a brutal beating. Xia Fugui, on the other hand, was screaming in pain, completely devoid of his usual arrogance.

Although Xia Yaozu received the least beating, he was still quite frightened. He huddled between his father and younger brother, plotting how to escape.

Just then, the old men who were fetching water returned. Hearing the commotion in the courtyard, they thought to themselves, "Oh no!" and put down their loads and ran into the courtyard.

"What's going on?" the old man asked, panting, as he reached the door.

"Those three scoundrels from the Xia family stole our water. We caught them and are teaching them a lesson now," an old woman said angrily.

Holy crap! Stealing their water at this time is no different from taking their lives.

The old men who were returning home were furious!

One by one, they rolled up their sleeves and joined the group to teach the Xia family father and son a lesson.

"Your Xia family has no humanity, has it? What kind of time is this to do such a despicable thing?" An old man shouted as he hit the man.

The Xia father and son were beaten so badly they fled in panic, but couldn't find any chance to escape. Xia Dayu was filled with remorse; he shouldn't have come to steal water. Xia Yaozu, on the other hand, was crying and screaming, completely devoid of his former arrogance.

Xia Fugui shouted, "We'll never do it again! Please stop hitting us!"

"Don't dare to? Who would believe that? Don't they know what they're made of? Show no mercy, keep beating them to death. The government is gone, what are they afraid of?" They only stopped when the Xia father and son were beaten to the point of near death.

"Get lost! If you dare to have any more ideas, I'll beat you up every time I see you! Go back and tell your dad we're going to see him tomorrow."

No one would believe Old Man Xia didn't know about this, not even if you beat them to death. Those clueless good-for-nothings came to their door to steal water, thinking they were easy to bully!

The Xia father and son lay on the ground like dead dogs, not daring to utter a single word.

"Get out of here!"

He kicked the person on the ground a few more times. What are you pretending to be dead for?

Despite the excruciating pain, the Xia father and son managed to get up with great difficulty, supporting each other as they limped out of the courtyard.

Xia Yaozu was the most severely lame. He felt that the last kick had almost broken his bones, and he was in so much pain that he was constantly sweating.

He wanted to shout but didn't dare. With the help of his father, he slowly left, gritting his teeth in hatred.

He will definitely avenge this!

That old man's dead meat!

After everyone left, they didn't rush to fetch water. Instead, they gathered together for an emergency meeting.

"We need to keep someone at home from now on."

It's really a nuisance that a few troublemakers have moved into a perfectly good village.

"Yes, not everyone can go out. Even if they do go out, the courtyard gate must be locked."

“The water is clean, so let’s not put so much in the yard, let’s store it in the water cellar.”

"That's right, the few good-for-nothings who came today are going to be in big trouble if anyone passes through the village!"

So many vats of water, it was really conspicuous; they were careless. Did they think that because there was no one in the village, they could do whatever they wanted? They forgot that there's always a chance of something going wrong.

"It's not a good idea to be on guard all the time. As long as the Xia family is around, we'll have to be on our toes every day."

"Yes, I noticed just now that Xia Yaozu's eyes were really vicious. I'm afraid he won't stop even after he recovers."

"It's not the theft itself that's scary, it's the thieves who have their eyes on us. And these are five shameless, heartless thieves. They'd even sell out their own families, what else wouldn't they do? Third Brother, I think we should kick them out!" the speaker suggested.

"Drive them away? Is that feasible?" The third brother hesitated.

They are villagers, living in their own homes. They have no reason to kick them out.

“Why not? That family is rotten to the core; we can’t let them stay.”

"What if they refuse to leave?" If it were him, he definitely wouldn't leave. Where would he go?

"If we don't drive them away, there are so many of us, surely we can drive them away?"

"Are you sure you really want to rush?"

Xia Laosan has always been indecisive.

"We must get rid of them, Third Brother, this family cannot be allowed to stay," the old woman who discovered them said firmly.

She always felt that keeping them would be a disaster.

“Alright, after dawn, we’ll go to Old Xia’s house together and make sure they leave the village within two days,” the third brother said firmly, slapping his thigh.

Everyone is right. In these chaotic times, it's best to get rid of such a menace as soon as possible.

Xia Yaozu was in so much pain that he couldn't take another step halfway home. Xia Dayu had no choice but to take turns supporting him on either side, gritting his teeth as they dragged him back home.

"Dad, dad!"

"Master!"

"Sir, my leg is broken, I'm dying!"

"Dad, something's happened! Come quick, lend a hand!"

Before they even arrived, the Xia father and son started playing the victim.

Old Mrs. Xia instinctively got off the kang (a heated brick bed) to catch the person. The screams were so pitiful; you could tell the beating was severe. Those old bastards are truly heartless.

After all, they are his own children and grandchildren, how could he not feel sorry for them?

"What are you doing? Sit back down!" Old Man Xia glared angrily at the old woman.

"Old man, didn't you hear that? They must be in big trouble this time. Shouldn't we go check on them?"

"What are you looking at? Sit up straight! You can come all that way by yourself, why do we have to pick you up for this little bit? Ignore them! They'll be in a minute!"

Grandma Xia thought about it and realized they were right; they were quite vocal, making a big fuss over the smallest things.

The three men, who had gotten up, sat back down on the kang (a heated brick bed). They were filled with resentment and anger, as no one had come to pick them up.

After finally managing to get inside, the first thing she did was question, "Dad, Mom, why didn't you come out to greet us?"
