Bai Ziming's cries for help were exceptionally piercing. Mo Qingcheng cursed inwardly, "Who's got a death wish? Why do they have to mess with my aunt's private parts?"
Then you should be prepared to get beaten up.
Mo Qingcheng, carrying a half-burnt wooden stick in her hand, with a cold face, darted to the side of the oxcart.
Shangguan Yichen and his four little villains rushed over with their weapons, their eyes as cold as Mo Qingcheng's.
"Stepmother... Waaah... Cough cough..." Bai Zimo was being tightly choked by Li Ergou, and tears streamed down his face from the pain.
"Don't be afraid, Mo Mo, your stepmother won't let you get hurt." Mo Qingcheng comforted Bai Zimo, narrowed her eyes, and glanced at Li Ergou's accomplices.
The village chiefs of all three villages were alarmed and rushed over.
"Li Ergou, put the child down right now! What grudge do you hold against me? You can't go too far." Village Chief Li Changgeng's eyelids twitched wildly. How did Mo Niangzi offend Li Ergou and his brothers?
"Heh, put it down? Li Changgeng, this is none of your business. If you know what's good for you, get out of here. We're here to avenge Er Gouzi. That little wench bullied my brother, this isn't over!"
Li Dagou stared at Mo Qingcheng with lustful eyes, wishing he could pounce on her immediately.
Mo Qingcheng felt nauseous: "Li Ergou, let my son go, or don't blame me for being rude to you!"
"Haha! This is the funniest joke I've heard all year. You little wench, sleep with us brothers and we'll let your son go." Li Ergou said, pinching Bai Zimo as he fantasized.
The minor villains were furious and were about to pounce on him without thinking.
"Stop right there!" Mo Qingcheng frowned and called out to stop them.
“Stepmother, but…” Mu Wanqing’s eyes were red as she clenched her fists, “I want to poison this stinking worm.”
"Qing'er, step back. Trust me." Mo Qingcheng met Shangguan Yichen's icy gaze, her eyelids twitching wildly.
Li Changgeng looked at Liu Changming, the village chief of Bishui Village, as if pleading for help.
Liu Changming took a deep breath: "Li Ergou, whatever grudges you have with Mo Niangzi, put the child down first."
"Get lost, Liu Changming. Letting this brat go isn't out of the question, but if anything happens to your daughter, don't come looking for us." Li Ergou sneered, glaring at Liu Changming with a menacing look.
The villagers who wanted to speak backed away, afraid of being implicated.
Mo Qingcheng's eyes were icy: "Release my son, and I'll agree to any conditions."
"Stepmother, no..." Shangguan Yunxi burst into tears.
Shangguan Yichen clenched his fists, veins bulging on his forehead.
Li Ergou and the others exchanged glances: "Is Lady Mo really serious?"
"It's real, more real than pearls! If you don't believe me, let's sign a life-or-death agreement. If I lose, you can do whatever you want with me; if you lose, your lives are in my hands. Do you dare or not?" Mo Qingcheng raised an eyebrow and smiled wickedly. It was best to get rid of these troublemakers as soon as possible. On the road to escape famine, they couldn't be on guard all the time, could they?
Li Ergou and his brothers exchanged glances and stared at Mo Qingcheng lewdly.
"Sign it. Anyone who doesn't is a bastard." Li Ergou nodded and shoved Bai Zimo aside.
Bai Ziming trembled with fear. Shangguan Yichen stepped forward, picked up Bai Ziming, looked at Mo Qingcheng with complicated eyes, and silently said sorry in his heart.
Bai Yunfei clung to Mo Qingcheng's leg, tears streaming down her face: "Stepmother, no!"
Shangguan Yunxi and Mu Wanqing shook their heads anxiously.
"no!
"don't want!"
"Good boy, you all step back." Mo Qingcheng gestured for the village chief to bring paper and pen.
Li Changgeng's heart was bleeding. Liu Cuihua stamped her foot and said, "Mo Niangzi, don't be impulsive. Let's fight them."
"Yes, let's fight them! The men of Nanping Village are not cowards!"
