My Ancestral Jade Pendant is a Space, No Panic During the Famine

Yu Qingqing was a professional woman from a modern, high-tech developed era who transmigrated to a fictional ancient era. On her way back from a business trip, she encountered a landslide and was t...

Chapter 69: Mrs. Xu's "Plot"

"Village chief! Help! I don't want to die! My dear granddaughter is so pitiful. She was killed when she was so young! Village chief!

You must make the decision for me, an old woman! Otherwise I won’t be able to live anymore.”

An old woman who looked to be in her forties or fifties ran to the village chief with tears and snot, and knelt in front of him while crying.

His son and daughter-in-law also knelt on the ground, and did not ask to pull the old woman up, leaving her kneeling there.

"Ouch! My dear wife of the Xu family, what's wrong with you? You're so old, kneeling before the village chief. Isn't that shortening his life?

What's the matter that you can't stand up and say? What happened to your granddaughter?

You have to make it clear who wants your life, otherwise this matter will be difficult to handle."

The people around saw the three of them kneeling down, and they didn't say what happened, but just knelt down. It was obvious that this was not a decent thing to do.

The old lady of the Xu family was lying on the ground, crying and wailing, but there was a hint of shrewdness and cunning in her eyes.

His son next to her also followed her in crying in front of the village chief, but his daughter-in-law Feng did not follow suit, and if you look closely you will notice.

Her hands were tightly grasped by the Xu family man. It felt like she was being forced to kneel.

"Xu family, just tell us what happened. Don't just cry. Crying won't solve any problem. What happened to your granddaughter?"

Village chief He Qiang really had a terrible headache because of the old woman's crying.

He rubbed his forehead helplessly, tried to calm down, and then patiently asked the old lady Xu in front of him.

"Village chief! My granddaughter was murdered. Poor granddaughter, she was only four years old! She was so young!

This morning, she complained of a stomachache, but after a while, she rolled on the ground in pain.

I didn't know what to do, either. My son and wife were not at home, so I could only hold her and rub her belly.

She died a short while later. No matter how I called her, she wouldn't respond! She must have eaten wolf meat and had worms in her stomach.

She was killed by the wolf meat! Village chief! You must make a decision for my granddaughter! "

After Mrs. Xu finished sobbing, the others took a deep breath and stared at their stomachs again and again.

Could it be that there are worms in my stomach, so the medicine is useless? At this time, the atmosphere around me became tense.

Only Feng's pair of scarlet eyes were fixed on Old Lady Xu. It seemed as if she wanted someone to cut her into pieces. The hatred was deep in her bones.

The Xu family boy held Feng's struggling hands tightly and stared at her with a warning look, as if she would not be spared if she did anything.

"You said your granddaughter had a stomachache and then died. Why didn't you come to me when she had a stomachache? Where is she now? Take me to see her."

Village chief He Qiang felt very sad when he heard that someone had died in the village again.

He remembered that the child was very well-behaved and obedient, so how could he die of a stomachache?

Besides, someone sent medicine to us. Even if it was caused by bugs, everyone else is fine!

"Village chief! You have to find someone to arrest the culprit!

Lest someone run away, my poor granddaughter! It was because she ate that black-hearted wolf meat that she got into trouble!

I don't want to die either! Village chief! Is there something wrong with the medicine? That's why my granddaughter died.

My granddaughter is dead, her body is still warm, how can I let people see it casually?"

Old Lady Xu started wailing and crying again, as if to imply that the village chief and the others were not allowed to go and see the person, and that the important thing was to catch the person as soon as possible.

Her unusual behavior had caught the attention of some people. Normally, if someone died, the first thing to do was to bury them, not to arrest them.

"Old lady Xu, you are already so old, please don't be unreasonable.

Don't act unreasonable here. You keep saying you want to arrest people, but does that mean you are right?

As far as I know, you have never been very fond of your granddaughter. Would you be willing to give up your own meat and let your granddaughter eat it? This is really a huge joke for me.

When did your heart become so good? Don't randomly involve others, are you trying to cause trouble again?"

There were also people nearby who felt sympathy for Qingqing's family and thought that the old woman must be harboring evil intentions.

He was trying to come up with some bad ideas again, but he couldn't stand it anymore, so he questioned what Old Lady Xu said.

"That's right! Old lady Xu, you are not a person with a big direction.

How could you bear the pain and feed your granddaughter wolf meat? Even though it is wolf meat, it is still meat after all.

You don't let us see your granddaughter. Are you lying?

Our village chief is an upright man. If you really have any grievances, he will naturally stand up for you.

But if you tell lies to deceive people, and you get caught, you will suffer the consequences."

Aunt Mei happened to come over to watch the fun, but she didn't expect that someone would throw dirty water on Yu Qingqing's family.

"I'm not talking nonsense. My granddaughter died from eating that black-hearted wolf meat. My poor granddaughter!

She was plagued by insects when she was so young.

I’m telling you, be careful if you eat wolf meat.

Don't wait until it's too late to find out and your stomach hurts. By then, it will be too late to save you.

Old Lady Xu rolled her eyes around, feeling a little timid as she began to encourage those who had eaten wolf meat. She acted like a dead pig, not afraid of boiling water, and just held on tight.

That person said that if this thing succeeds, there will naturally be benefits.

"Village chief, do you think what she said is true? Is it possible that the medicine we take is completely ineffective? Will we die in the end?"

The less experienced woman next to her was frightened by these words and was afraid that she would be the next to die.

"Don't talk nonsense, Xu's daughter-in-law, tell me what happened. You have to tell me the truth, otherwise I can't make the decision."

Village chief He Qiang observed from the side and found that Feng seemed to have something to say but did not dare to say it. Feng's expression did not escape the village chief's eyes.

The young man from the Xu family who was standing nearby heard the village chief's words that he was going to make the decision for the Feng family.

There was a hint of panic on his face, but he quickly calmed down.

He turned around and stared at Feng's face with his cloudy eyes.

Feng was frightened by her husband's look. Her body began to tremble. Tears began to fall down her face.
