Chapter 1124: You have some guts
Madam Sun believed that as long as she found her daughter she would be able to get out of this place where she did not belong but as soon as she rushed to the laundry house, she found her daughter washing the clothes of a mer without any fuss. Though her expression was twisted, her hands were diligently working.
" Ah Cy, whats the matter with you? Why are you washing the clothes of a mer?" Madam Sun had raised her daughter as someone who only knew how to get served by mers rather than serving them, thus she was really shocked upon seeing her daughter washing the clothes of a mer.
Sun Ah Cy smiled mockingly as she threw the robe in her hands onto the floor and then sniggered, " What do you think? It's all because of you that I have to wash these clothes. If you were not greedy then I wouldn't have to wash the clothes of mers like this, because of your greed I was poisoned! Now I have no choice but to follow that mer or else he will kill me."
" Why did you have to come up with such a rotten plan?"
At this moment, Sun Ah Cy completely forgot that she was the one who was helping her mother with her rotten plan. Right now she only knew one thing and that was —— she was poisoned! And the antidote was in the hands of the mer whom she was married to when she was unconscious.
How could she be not angry? And because she was angry Sun Ah Cy wanted to take this anger out at someone. Most probably her mother.
When Madam Sun heard the words of her daughter, she was stunned and angry. She wasn't angry at Sun Ah Cy who screamed at her, after all this was her only daughter and she had the right to get angry at her. But who was that mer who fed her daughter poison and made her like this?
" He dare harm you? I will teach him a good lesson just you wait——"
" You will not be able to do anything to him," Sun Ah Cy snapped at her mother. " You think that I did not try? That mer is like a devil incarnate. If you want to die then you be my guest! But I am not coming with you."
Seeing her like this Madam Sun could not help but get angry. She glared at her daughter and then said, " You girl why are you so angry? Aren't I doing this for you?"
" There is no need for you to do anything for me," said Sun Ah Cy as she returned her attention to washing the clothes. " You tried to drug Yu Dong for me and did you not see what happened? My future is now ruined! I can't even take mer concubines now that I am married to a mer like this!"
Madam Sun wanted to say that this was only temporary and soon they would get back at Yu Dong but before she could say anything, she felt something being hurled at her, she looked down and saw a jade pillow lying on the floor.
Fortunately, she ducked in time or else she would have surely suffered.
Startled and angry she turned to look at the person who threw the pillow but then her eyes met with Dai Xi who glared at her and said, " You forgot what I told you? Didn't you? I said to you that you have to wash my clothes and then bring me food but you are chatting here? Come I will teach you a lesson!"
With that, he strode towards Madam Sun and then caught her by the back of her collar. And before she could say a single word, he started to drag her inside the room.
" Hey, wait!"
" Let go of me!"
At first, Madam Sun struggled but then her struggle turned into screams of agony as she shrieked and yelled for help. Sun Ah Cy could hear the sound of someone getting beaten up but she could not be bothered by her mother, now she was in trouble herself.
On the other hand, at the Big River Village, Li Yanshi told everyone about Lin Yiyi's betrayal.
" She was the one who opened the door of the barricade. If she hadn't opened the door then the mercenaries would have never entered the village!"
When Li Yanshi thought about how ruthless Old Master Lin was when he said that it did not matter whether or not she knew the truth as she was going to die anyway along with the rest of the villagers, Li Yanshi wished she could beat that mer up.
" That mer had been ruthless ever since he was young," Aunt Wang said with a click of her tongue. " There was a time when his wife married another mer concubine. Three months later that mer concubine was found in the well, dead and tied… back then many people thought that it was Old Master Lin who killed that mer but he was too sneaky and sly. Kept on mentioning that it had nothing to do with him."
" We need to catch them and teach them a lesson." One of the villagers sneered. She turned to the rest of the villagers and then said loudly, " How can we allow them to leave like this? If they went out of the village and then started a new life somewhere doesn't that mean that they won?"
Many villagers could not help but agree with the woman.
" Thats right! They are the reason why we are all homeless. If not for them our houses would not have been burned like this! It's because of them that our fields and everything else are ruined. We can rebuild our houses but what about the fields that we took care of? We have to do it from the start again!"
The more the villagers thought the more angrier they got. They wished they could twist the necks of the Lin family. Explore more at m,v l'e-NovelBin.net
" But I don't think that they would have survived," Wu Junfen spoke up causing the ruckus and clamour to turn silent. Everyone turned to look at her and waited for her to finish speaking, when Wu Junfen saw that everyone was looking at her, she rolled her eyes and then said, " What I mean to say is that the wild animals in the mountain have come down.
Compared to the mercenaries who know how to protect themselves, the Lin family is not as skilled."
Though the news that was delivered to them was grim, the villagers did not feel sorry for the Lin family if anything they felt like they deserved it.
" But——"
" But we should still check whether or not the Lin family have been dealt with?" Yu Dong finished the sentence for the woman who spoke. She smiled at the latter and then said, " Don't worry. I will go and take a look at the mountains while the rest of you keep an eye on the mercenaries. I can see that a few of them are slacking off."
As soon as she finished speaking the mers turned to look at the mercenaries who were no longer working but instead, they were resting on the side. When they saw that the mercenaries were not working the villagers rolled their eyes and then rushed to the fields.
" You are really good! I only looked away from you for a second!"
" Do you think that the crops will grow on their own if you don't work? Is that it?"
" Start moving your hands or I will tell Miss Yu that you are slacking!"
While the villagers were taking care of the mercenaries, Yu Dong headed to the back of the mountains. She climbed up on the trees one after another and very soon she found human bones piled in the middle of the forest. From one look she could tell that the human bones were new and they were recently dumped here.
Though this more or less confirmed that the Lin family was dead, Yu Dong did not feel sorry for them as they were the reason behind the suffering of many families. If she hadn't returned then the villagers would have surely been killed.
After she was done checking she turned to leave. It was getting darker slowly and Yu Dong did not want to waste her time staying in the mountains.
She was about to head down to the foot of the mountain when something rushed at her. Yu Dong was not startled instead she raised her hand and then aimed at the figure that was rushing at her.
"It's me! It's me! Lin Yiyi!" Before Yu Dong could smack the life out of the figure, the woman stopped her but after hearing the name of the woman, Yu Dong did not stop instead she slapped Lin Yiyi even harder than before causing the latter to fall on the ground and cough up blood.
" You have some nerve popping for in front of me like this!"
