Causing Trouble

The people from Shanyang Village wanted to circle around most of the people in Hu Family Village, but they did not walk very quickly, afraid that they would cause too much noise. Seeing that they were about to reach the Wang Family, the village head of Shanyang Village still called out to the people behind him, “Don’t act rashly. When the time comes—”

“What will happen when the time comes?” A cold voice sounded.

The village head of Shanyang Village felt that something was wrong. He turned around and was shocked.

They had just circled around the small hill in front of them when their vision suddenly widened. At the end of the hill was a repaired flat ground. This was also where Old man Wang’s house was.

They originally thought that there was no one in the Wang Family. At most, there were some women and children at home. They did not expect to see at least 70 to 80 people looking at them with unfriendly expressions.

Standing at the front was Old Madam Wang. Her eyes were filled with unconcealable anger. When she looked at the people from Shanyang Village, it was as if she was looking at rotten fat in the fields.

“You’re the daughter-in-law of the Wang Family, right?” The village head of Shanyang Village thought that as the head of a village, it was too degrading for him to speak to a woman, so he asked a person from the village who was used to speaking to come up and talk.

“Get lost! Who are you to talk to me!” Old Madam Wang could not be bothered to play dumb with them. “What do you people from Shanyang Village mean? You’re here to steal from us again? Why? Has all the bark of your village been eaten up? Do you want to come to our village to ask for food?”

Third Aunt Hu tightened her grip on the scissors in her hand and tried her best not to make her voice tremble as she said loudly, “That’s right. If your Shanyang Village is really lacking so much, I’ll get my man to bring over a bag of bark for your village. I guarantee you’ll have enough to eat.”

The word “again” ruthlessly pierced the hearts of everyone in Shanyang Village. Wasn’t this the second time? Last time, the Hu Family Village didn’t give them any face. This time, they probably wouldn’t give them any face either.

“Village Head, don’t waste your breath on them. What’s the point of talking about these useless things?” The person walked forward and whispered into the ears of the village head, “Look, most of these people are women, and most of them are old women. Other than a few little brats, there are no men. Why don’t we take advantage of the fact that those men are not here yet—”

The village chief of Shanyang Village was a little hesitant. They were only here for a child, but if they hurt these women, those men would probably make a fuss if they found out.

It was fine if the children were gone, but how many child-bearing women can be found right now? In this era, which family had never lost a child? How sad could they be over losing one child?

However, the women were untouchables. Although they were good-for-nothings, they were usually needed for small jobs. They were also the only ones able to give birth.

If they hurt a child, the village would probably let it go after a while. But not if they hurt the women, especially young women like that.

Both sides did not dare to move.

When they heard the news just now, the Wang family was indeed frightened. Later on, when Hu Erpang ran over to report, they found out that Ah Yu was still fine.

Liu Shi ran out to look for Ah Yu like crazy. Old Madam Wang asked the women to stay at home and wanted to deal with the situation herself. She did not expect the few families nearby to come as well. The adults and children standing together were also quite a scary force.

“What exactly do you want to do! Go back to where you came from. Hu Family Village is not a place for you to behave atrociously!” When Old Madam Wang saw the people from Shanyang Village whispering to each other, she knew that they must be holding something back and immediately interrupted.

“I heard that your village picked up a child. That child was from our village. Stop hiding the child and hand it over,” the person in front said. “On the account that you picked the child up and raised it, our village won’t pursue the matter.”

Old Madam Wang spat. “Your village? How can those ugly people in your village produce a good-looking child like our Ah Yu? You’re too shameless!”

“Old woman, don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!” That person was angry. “I advise you to hand the child over obediently. Otherwise, don’t blame us for not caring about the friendship of the neighboring villages.”

Hu Erpang shouted from behind, “Don’t hand her to them. They want to eat children! They will eat people!”

A few timid children tried their best to inch backwards when they heard this.

Heavens, these people ate children! Only evil demons ate children!

The people from Shanyang Village were not full to begin with. After walking for so long, they were already hungry.

With their plan exposed, their patience was exhausted.

“Damn it, I don’t care. In any case, I can’t lose my child! Hand over the girl!”

A man took out a scythe from his waist and waved it as he rushed opposite.

His target was actually a child opposite him.

Who cared whose child it was? Today, he had to take one away!

This child was only five or six years old. When he saw someone rushing over, he was stunned.

Coincidentally, Madam Zhang was standing there. She picked up the child and ran.

With a swing of the scythe, a long gash appeared on Madam Zhang’s back. Her half-thick cotton shirt was torn and stained with blood.

She had been sliced by the scythe, but she couldn’t care less. She gritted her teeth and held on as she carried the child and ran far away.

“Ah!!” The group of women screamed in fear. They had never seen such a scene before!

The children watching at the side were also so frightened that they subconsciously scattered in all directions. They even shouted, “Murder, murder! Shanyang Village is here to murder people!”

Wang Dalang, Wang Erlang, and Wang Sanlang were helping to chop firewood outside. They were the first to receive the children’s notice.

As soon as they reached the door of their house and saw the person waving the scythe rushing over, they each picked up a pole and rushed up.

“Fight!”

“Kill them!”

“Run quickly and hide!” Old Madam Wang did not expect the other party to be so vicious. She picked up the club in her hand and prepared to smash it at the crazy man.

Other than the frightened women, the others were at least holding large rocks in their hands and throwing them at the person who rushed over.

“They’re crazy!”

“Smash these lunatics to death!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The man was caught off guard and his head was hit several times by the stones, blood flowing profusely.

“Brothers, what are you waiting for? Hu Family Village is bullying us. Let’s fight it out with them!” The other men from Shanyang Village were originally a little hesitant. Seeing that the people from the village were drawing blood and pulling out their weapons, some of them even turned around and ran, planning to get the people guarding the hoe and shovel to send the items over.

“Not good, not good! Shanyang Village is here to murder people!”

“They want to eat the children and kill people!”

“At Grandpa Wang’s house!”

The fast-legged children had already gone to the central area of the village to tell the men working.

The men could not be bothered to ask further. They took whatever they had in their hands. If there was nothing, they picked up a stone from the roadside and ran towards Old man Wang’s house.

“Quick, quick, quick. Are those people from Shanyang Village crazy?”

...

“They came to our village to snatch our children. They’re really rebelling!”

“Run faster, their house is only filled with old people, women and children!”

Everything happened very quickly. From the time Hu Erpang discovered these people to the time he informed the Wang Family, it had only been ten minutes.

When the two sides met again, the children went to inform the other adults. Only half an hour had passed.

Old Madam Wang originally thought that if she could stall for time, it would be good to say a few more words so that the men could arrive.

Seeing that these people’s weapons were about to injure them, Old Madam Wang became anxious. She shouldn’t irritate them too much.

Unexpectedly, Shanyang Village was already so degenerated that they directly attacked.

“Ah!”

“Mother!!”

“It hurts—”

“My leg—”

...

“I’ll fight it out with you!”

Finally, the two sides met. Some of the young women were injured in order to protect the children and elderly.

The Wang brothers waved their carrying poles without any order and blocked those men outside.

Those people were not really bandits. They did not fight especially hard.

However, they were still adult men after all. Their attacks were ruthless. Even if they did not hit the vital parts, there were still people who bled and were injured.

At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a girl’s voice.

“Bad guys! Big bad guys!”

Everyone could not help but pause. They turned their heads to look and saw a girl about two years old moving quickly on the ground. On a closer look, it turned out that she was not running, but there was a little lamb under her.

The little lamb’s four hooves left afterimages as it carried the girl and quickly approached.

Behind her, a much older boy and Liu Shi ran behind.

Most surprisingly, behind them, there was actually a group of snakes approaching quickly!

“Don’t bully Grandma!” Little Ah Yu wiped her tears and her voice was about to break. “Don’t bully Big Brother!”

The lamb ran to the crowd and suddenly stopped. However, the group of snakes did not stop and rushed into the crowd. The snakes did not seem to be afraid of death at all as they bit the people from Shanyang Village.

“Ahhh!”

“There are snakes!!!”

“This snake is poisonous!”

“Why are they only biting us!”
