None of the newly registered villagers suffered serious injuries, and besides, there were guards and three families watching over them at the scene.
If there is internal injury, the conflict may escalate, which would be harmful and not beneficial.
Sun Jiang and Zhang Yue, along with the other newlyweds, rushed over and helped the injured newcomer back.
When the injured person saw the two of them, he couldn't help but say something from the bottom of his heart.
"I shouldn't have come! I should have listened to you back then!"
"Yeah! That's right! They got us here, then they're the ones lying in bed, and in the end, we're the ones who got hurt! We can't do this kind of losing business again!"
"Did those bastards guess this, so they lied and said they had diarrhea, deliberately not coming? I won't let them get away with this!"
......
After several rounds of complaints, Ruan Meng got the gist of it. It was very likely that these people were instigated by those few people from Wanjiacun, or that someone from Wanyou made contact and gave them advice.
It didn't affect the outcome; instead, it made the troublemakers taste the bitterness of fists, and the blame was now directed at them...
That felt so good!
It was too noisy just now, so Ruan Meng left her older brother and sister-in-law in the house.
Now that everyone has left, the siblings are at home discussing things.
"Big brother, the grouping is basically complete. It's time to get rid of these troublemakers!"
"The people from earlier weren't necessarily all bad. Making an example of them is a way to give them a chance."
Ruan Mengdao nodded.
"Has your sister made any plans?"
Ruan Meng smiled.

The next day, near noon.
A-Yuan ran over to deliver the message.
It was said that the guards sent to watch over the people in Wanjiacun sent word that early this morning, a doctor passed by the place where the newlyweds lived and was taken there to treat the people who had diarrhea.
The doctor diagnosed that they had mistakenly eaten croton seeds, but all of them said that they had not eaten anything else except seafood.
The doctor asked them to recall if they had encountered anything strange, as they might have accidentally ingested croton seeds after coming into contact with them.
They stammered, only mentioning that they had seen the coins. Ever since the first day they finished, they had discovered that the coins were missing. They were shocked and frightened, feeling that someone was playing a prank on them, but they had no evidence.
The doctor examined their fingers and found traces of croton powder. He concluded that they must have picked up a copper coin with croton powder on it, touched the food with their hands, and accidentally ingested it, which caused their diarrhea.
When A Yuan was only halfway through his sentence, the second and third brothers, as well as Xiao Kai beside him, all showed expressions of unease.
Second brother: Two days have passed, and you still haven't washed your hands properly?
Third brother: Ugh! That's so dirty!
Xiao Kai: I've been pooping for so long, and there's still croton powder on my hands... How can I wash away poop if I haven't washed off the croton powder? Ugh!
Ruan Meng smiled faintly, glanced at the three of them, and continued to ask A Yuan, "And then?"
"The doctor cured them, and even reminded them that sprinkling croton powder on the copper coins was clearly a prank..."
"Those men were so angry their faces turned green! After seeing the doctor off, they huddled together and whispered among themselves. The guards, seeing their state, suspected they were plotting something bad, so they quickly sent someone back to report."
Ruan Meng smiled and said, "I'm just afraid they won't come!"
He whispered something to a few people, and their eyes lit up.

After dark, Ruan Mengru, as usual, took A Yuan and Lao San to go to the beach.
If you look closely, you'll notice that not only is Miss Sun not in the carriage, but Du Xiaocan and the second son are also not there.
Du Xiaocan crushed the emerald grass and, together with the second son, smeared it on the fence where the cubs were kept.
These fences were temporarily erected next to the Fan family's house on the day the Sun family's merchant ships arrived.
For some reason, all the piglets, lambs, cowboys, chickens, ducks, and geese have gone into the pen today, leaving only water troughs and feed troughs in the open space outside the fence.
The guards stood far away, and several dark figures slipped through the fence unnoticed...
In the still of the night, a venomous glint flashed in the eyes of several people, gleaming with anticipation for what was about to happen.
Before the group could even feel smug, a guard suddenly approached from the side, noticed something was wrong, and shouted:
"who!"
The group grabbed the fence and jumped over, fleeing in a panic.
The guards gave chase, but no one ever scaled the fence.
Soon, the sound of gongs and drums rang out in the village.
This is kept in the village chief's house and passed down through generations, so that villagers can be notified in case of an emergency.
Hearing the distant sound, the villagers didn't react for a long time.
Ruan Qian took Ruan Meng to the village chief's house and explained the situation. The village chief then personally struck the gong and drum to summon the villagers.
As the villagers gradually gathered, the village chief instructed his two sons, "Go and inform them that not a single newly registered villager should be missing."
When Feng Yun and Feng Xi arrived and conveyed their request, the few people from Wanjiacun seemed to avoid eye contact, perhaps out of guilt, but they eventually came over with the others.
Feng Yun noticed that one of them was wearing his clothes inside out.
Once everyone had arrived, the village chief slowly began to speak.
"We've gathered everyone here today because something terrible has happened in the village!"
The villagers whispered among themselves, but when the village chief paused, they finally quieted down.
Unexpectedly, the village chief's next words instantly caused an uproar at the scene.
"Someone is trying to kill our baby animals!"
