Chapter 322 They were bitten by dogs
They belong to three households. Half a year ago, everyone in their village except for these three people took Du Wanchun's rice seeds and planted their fields.
So this autumn harvest, only their family remained as poor as before. The others not only had full granaries, but also sold some of their rice to the Zhou family for some silver. They used the silver to buy oxcarts, get married, and marry off their daughters, living a prosperous life.
These three families were extremely jealous.
Later, the three of them gathered together and thought about it and felt that something was wrong. In the past, the rice they planted was harvested once a year, so why was the rice seed that Du Wanchun gave them meant that it could be harvested twice a year?
It must have been Du Wanchun who did this.
She must be a demon who has attained enlightenment and cast a spell on the rice seeds, which is why the rice grows so fast and the rice is so fragrant.
Most of the villagers in Shili Village are good people; they just focus on farming and living a good life.
But these three families are different. They used to be the richest, but now they are the poorest.
They were furious, so they decided to use dog blood to deal with Du Wanchun.
If they can prove that Du Wanchun is a demon, then no one will buy their rice, and no one will dare to eat it.
However, their wishful thinking was about to fall through.
After Du Wanchun washed the dog blood off the door, they slowly got up, intending to sneak away and go back to get some more chicken blood.
Just as Du Wanchun was about to leave the hospital, she heard a sound coming from the bushes and guessed that it was those people who were up to their tricks.
She raised the corners of her lips and smiled faintly.
The three women walked hunched over in the grass, preparing to leave.
Just then, two large black dogs suddenly ran out of the bushes.
"Woof! Woof! Woof!"
The big black dog barked loudly at them, baring its teeth, and looked like it was about to bite them.
Suddenly, Hong, one of the women, jumped up and shouted, "Ah, a dog! A dog!"
The other two grabbed her hands and pressed her down, saying, "Keep your voice down, or that monster from the Zhou family will find out."
Hong quickly covered her mouth, her eyes filled with terror. "What should we do? Will these dogs eat us all?"
The bolder Qiu snorted and said, "Look at your pathetic self, you're nothing but two dogs, what's there to be afraid of?"
After she finished speaking, she picked up the stick from the ground and prepared to hit the two dogs.
But she underestimated the two big black dogs.
The big black dog had wolf blood; it bared its sharp teeth and pounced on Qiu, biting her hand.
Qiu cried out in pain, trying to shake off the dog that was biting her hand, but she couldn't get rid of it no matter what she did.
The other two turned pale with fright upon seeing the scene before them.
"Ah, dog! Dog! Let's run! Quick!" Hong was the most timid, and she grabbed Lin, who was beside her, and ran back quickly, leaving Qiu alone there.
Qiu fell to the ground, turned around and saw that they had all run away. She hurriedly shouted, "Help! Help! Help me!"
Villagers passing by heard the cries for help, looked over, and found no one there, so they had no choice but to leave.
The two black dogs grew increasingly ferocious, biting Qiu's hand and refusing to let go.
As Qiu cursed, she tried to leave, but as soon as she stood up, her left foot was bitten by a dog.
Last night, she and the two people from earlier killed a wild dog and took its blood when no one was around.
Therefore, Mr. Hong was terrified of dogs, as if they were ghosts.
Qiu struggled desperately, but she was no match for the two ferocious dogs. She eventually lost consciousness due to excessive blood loss. When she woke up again, she found herself carried home, but her hands and feet had been bitten off by the two dogs.
Lin sat to the side and sighed, "Sister, it's lucky you're alive, otherwise you probably wouldn't even have survived."
Ms. Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, but when she looked down at her severed right hand and left leg, she was completely stunned. "What, what happened? My leg, and my hand!"
With her back to her, Lin wiped away her tears with a handkerchief. "Sister, although you survived, your leg and hand were bitten off by those two dogs."
Qiu was stunned, as if struck by lightning, her face filled with disbelief.
Fearing that she would be too heartbroken, Madam Lin comforted her, saying, "Sister, it's alright. We can still live in the future. As long as we're alive, we'll always have a chance to make a living."
Qiu burst into tears.
Lin did not speak again.
Just then, Hong, who had just arrived at the door, suddenly shouted, "This is retribution! Retribution! If we hadn't wanted to kill that dog that night and hadn't gone to the Zhou family's door to splash dog blood, we wouldn't have encountered these stray dogs! It's all retribution!"
However, Qiu Shi simply did not believe that retribution was happening at this time. She said frantically, "No, it's not like that. It was Du Wanchun. It must be her. It was that wicked woman who did it!"
Lin pulled her aside and said, "Don't talk nonsense anymore. The person who saved you that day was Du Wanchun. If it weren't for her, you wouldn't even be alive now."
Qiu asked in surprise, "She saved me?"
Madam Lin nodded. "Yes, you collapsed on the ground and lost consciousness due to excessive blood loss. Du Wanchun happened to be passing by and saw you lying on the ground, so she called the authorities and even asked a doctor to check your injuries. Otherwise, you would be meeting the King of Hell by now."
Qiu couldn't say anything more at this point. If she were to say that Du Wanchun was a demon, it would be considered repaying kindness with enmity.
