Top assassin Jiang Xueying suddenly finds herself transported into another world, becoming the infamous "evil stepmother" to two children. Jiang Xueying, who has been single her whole life,...
The news that Jiang Xueying led the whole village to grow vegetables soon reached Aunt Gu's ears.
Aunt Gu thought about the last time she tried to destroy the vegetables with boiling water but failed, and she still regrets not using enough boiling water. Now that Jiang Xueying's vegetables are selling so successfully, and she has even brought the whole village to grow them together, she feels jealous of Jiang Xueying.
Why can Jiang Xueying live so well? Isn't it just selling vegetables? A village woman can get so much recognition from so many people, while she can only leave her hometown and be looked down upon, eat miscellaneous grains, and have to tighten her belt to live a tight life.
She is not willing to give in!
On a dark night, Aunt Gu picked up two buckets of freshly boiled water and wanted to repeat the same trick to destroy the vegetable field that looked so irritating. This time, she would not let Jiang Xueying be so proud again.
The vegetables in the newly planted vegetable garden have just sprouted tender green shoots, full of vitality.
"Humph, Jiang Xueying, you are so proud of yourself, but you won't be able to laugh tomorrow!"
Aunt Gu smiled coldly and lifted the bucket full of boiling water in her hands. Hot steam was rising above the bucket, and the mist made Aunt Gu's distorted face vaguely visible.
"All of you die!"
Aunt Gu was just about to pour water into the ground when she was suddenly hit on the face by a beam of light. She was startled and subconsciously closed her eyes. At the same time, her feet slipped and she fell straight to the ground, and the bucket of hot water splashed all over her legs.
"ah!"
The hot water was scalding hot, and even through her clothes she could feel the heat stinging her skin. Aunt Gu couldn't help but let out a shrill scream. Her whole body began to tremble in agony, and the expression on her face was twisted in pain.
how so?
It hurts! It hurts!
"Aunt Gu, you didn't succeed last time, how dare you come again?"
Hearing the voice, Aunt Gu raised her head with difficulty, only to see Jiang Xueying standing high up on the hillside with a cold look in her eyes. She raised her eyes in a mocking arc, which made her shudder.
At the same time, there were many villagers standing next to Jiang Xueying, each holding a torch and looking at her expressionlessly. Some even showed contempt and disdain, unable to hide their disgust and nausea towards her.
Aunt Gu knew that what she had done had been exposed and she had been caught in the act in public. Even if she wanted to argue, she couldn't. Looking at the looks in everyone's eyes, she couldn't help but become more and more afraid. She shivered uncontrollably and couldn't even feel the burning pain in her body.
Why? Why did it turn out like this!
When Jiang Xueying saw this expected scene, she did not feel any sympathy in her heart. She just didn't expect that the murderer would be her. What deep hatred did she have with her that she would do such a cruel thing?
The surrounding villagers also watched this scene coldly. No one wanted to step forward to help Aunt Gu. There was hatred in their eyes.
"This vicious woman wants to kill all our vegetables. She is so vicious!"
"That's right, she should be burned to death and made to pay the price she deserves!"
"Yeah, no wonder the Gu family didn't have a good ending. But even if they were driven out of the village, they still did evil in the village. It's simply too much. People like this should be beaten every time they see them!"
Jiang Xueying frowned subconsciously. Although Aunt Gu's behavior was really abominable, the punishment of burning her to death was still too cruel. Several soft-hearted villagers thought so too.
"Forget it, burning is still a bit too extreme, let's just punish him a little as a warning!"
"Yes, I think our village doesn't need such a despicable person. I suggest that we drive her out of the village and never allow her and her family to come back again!"
"Yes, get out!"
“Get out!”
Everyone shouted in unison, holding torches, with hatred and dissatisfaction towards Aunt Gu on their faces. After all, Jiang Xueying's vegetable garden is not only the result of her hard work, but also a landmark for the entire village. Anyone who wants to destroy the vegetable garden is going against the entire village.
Aunt Gu knew that she could no longer stay in the village, so she had no choice but to be captured by several villagers. She had to pack up her few belongings at night and was driven out of the village. She was warned that her family would never be allowed to return to the village.
Aunt Gu refused to change her bad habits. Anyway, their house had been destroyed long ago, so she didn't have to go back. What was the big deal? It was just a dilapidated village!
This was a very satisfying thing to do. All the villagers held torches and cheered. The culprit who destroyed the vegetable fields was finally caught.
Thinking about what happened in the past few days, Jiang Xueying checked the thriving sprouts and walked back with mixed feelings, when she suddenly heard a strange sound.
Jiang Xueying's thoughts came together instantly. She frowned, stopped, and cautiously approached the place where the sound came from.
Pushing aside the half-human-high grass, Jiang Xueying was stunned to see a white puppy kneeling in the grass. It was covered in blood, probably because it was injured. There was a large bald spot on the right side of its body, and it looked like it had been bitten by something. It was dying and couldn't even get up.
Since the last time she was almost attacked by a dog, Jiang Xueying had no good feelings towards dogs, but this dog didn't make her hate it that much.
While she was thinking about it, the dog seemed to have noticed her. It raised its head and stared at him with its round eyes. In its eyes... there was actually a glimmer of hope for help.
Jiang Xueying inexplicably remembered that she met Chen Simin because of her horse, but she didn't have any Ganoderma lucidum on her body now. This dog...
Jiang Xueying claimed that she was not a kind person, but she couldn't help but get closer to check the white dog's injuries. She found that both of the dog's hind legs were tied with a rope. No wonder it was lying on the ground motionless.
She frowned slightly and reached out to untie the rope on the white dog. During the process, the white dog did not move at all. It only stood up slowly after the rope was untied and then knelt down on its front legs.
This action... seems a bit weird no matter how you look at it.
"Woof!"
The white dog suddenly barked, which scared Jiang Xueying. She came to her senses and saw that the white dog had the same pitiful look as before.
"Okay, the ropes on you have been untied, you can go now!"
Jiang Xueying turned around and walked away after she finished speaking. The white dog followed her as she moved. She took a step and it took a step, keeping a leisurely distance from her.
Jiang Xueying stopped and looked back at the white dog.
The white dog also stopped and stared at Jiang Xueying.
The man and the dog looked at each other. No matter how they looked at each other, they felt that it was a bit weird. Moreover, the dog was covered in blood, which was even more shocking and terrifying.
With such injuries, if the white dog left alone, it would be difficult for it to survive.
Jiang Xueying hesitated. She didn't like dogs in the first place and was afraid that they would hurt the child, but now...
After much hesitation, Jiang Xueying finally took the dog back.
