Seeing people harvesting in the field, those people rushed towards Jiang Qiao and his group as if their hearts had been ripped out.
Jiang Qiao had sized up the group; there were men and women of all ages. Her first thought was that these people must be scoundrels. They even brought their families to forcibly rob people. How shameless! They didn't even care about the lives of the people in the nunnery.
"Who gave you permission to collect it? Stop right now! Men, move all the stuff to our car."
A man spoke up, startling the masters into standing beside Jiang Qiao.
"Hmph, who are you, running wild in this place? Did you get my permission? Go back to where you came from, or you'll regret it. Don't say I didn't warn you."
The man sized up Jiang Qiao. "Oh ho, the new nun, not bad looking at all, quite something. What's the meaning of this? Forcing us brothers to make a move? Let me tell you, if we make a move, you won't get away with it, right, brothers?"
The people around them even joined in the commotion, saying, "That's right, this girl is so pretty, why should she become a nun? I happen to be single, she can go back and be my wife."
Jiang Qiao squatted down, holding some small pebbles in her hand, and without even standing up, flicked them out.
"With such a foul mouth, I suggest you go see a doctor. Maybe he can fix your brain. Dreaming of getting married in broad daylight, you're either an idiot or mentally ill."
The man who had just spoken got hit in the mouth by a pebble, cried out, and blood immediately flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"That little wench is hitting someone! Get her!"
Unfortunately, Jiang Qiao didn't give them a chance. She stood up and shot out the pebbles in her hand at lightning speed.
He kept muttering, "Destroying things in the nunnery is one crime; stealing food is another; bullying these women is a third; preventing these masters from harvesting—you all deserve to be beaten and punished! Kneel down!"
It's amazing how those who were about to rush over actually knelt down on the ground. It wasn't that they didn't want to move, but that they couldn't.
When the women behind him saw that the man was in trouble, they all went crazy and rushed towards Jiang Qiao.
Before anyone could understand what was happening, Jiang Qiao rushed over and slapped them all to the ground.
Seeing that there were still some people who hadn't made a move, Jiang Qiao glanced at them sideways and asked, "What, are you planning to come at me all at once, or are you going back?"
"I'm telling you, this nunnery is under my control. One person comes, I'll beat them up; two people come, I'll beat them both. If you dare come again, I'll make sure you never leave this place for the rest of your lives."
"No, no, please don't! It's all a misunderstanding. We didn't mean any harm. These unlucky kids made us come along. We'll leave right now—"
Jiang Qiao snorted coldly, "Wait, who are these people to you?"
Before these people could answer, the old women lying on the ground objected, cursing loudly.
Unfortunately, Jiang Qiao is the kind of person who's all friendly and agreeable to everyone. If she's not happy, no one else can be either; they'll curse their ancestors and deserve a beating.
So, those people who were cursing and swearing on the ground were once again beaten by Jiang Qiao until they couldn't speak.
That's not all. One by one, Jiang Qiao stuffed another pill into their mouths. If they didn't take it, sorry, she'd pinch their chin and force it in.
"What...what is this?"
Jiang Qiao coldly looked at the person who asked the question. "Poison. If you behave well, I will consider giving you the antidote. However, I will not give you the full antidote. It will be given once a month. If you don't believe me, go back and try it yourselves."
Also, to those who insult me, although I won't insult them back, you'll have to face the consequences yourselves. Hmph, do you really think there's no one left in this nunnery?
Furthermore, if you want to call the police, I advise you to go ahead and do it right now. I'll be waiting here. I want to see if I'll be the one locked up or you!"
Upon hearing that Jiang Qiao had given them poison, those standing nearby were so frightened that they all knelt down on the ground with a thud.
“Master, don’t take it to heart. They’re all blind fools. We’ll definitely teach them a lesson when we get back.”
Jiang Qiao looked at the other party coldly, "Teach them a lesson? Why didn't you teach them a lesson before? Where were you when they were committing crimes? Were you your accomplices? Who ate the grain they brought back back then? Now you're telling me you don't know? Isn't it a little too late?"
If a child is not taught properly, it is the father's fault. How could you be such parents, giving birth to such a wretched child who has even learned to smash and rob? Do you really think no one dares to discipline them?
And you lot, weren't you here to haul grain today? What are you doing pushing these carts here? Helping the nunnery with work?"
The man quickly kowtowed, saying, "It's all our fault, Master. Please forgive us this time. We promise we won't do it again. We'll help the nuns in the temple harvest their crops right now."
"Could you please give us the antidote? We're all poor, really, we can't afford medical treatment."
"Just because you don't have money, you think you can steal from others? Who taught you these rules?"
When those masters were suffering from hunger and fear, what were you, their family members, doing? Did you try to persuade them? Did you try to stop them? Now you're only realizing this, it's too late.
"Get to work right now! You're not leaving until you've finished cleaning up. And you, write down all these people's names and addresses—"
Actually, these people didn't want to obey, but they had no choice. This woman in front of them was a demon, and they couldn't possibly defeat her.
Judging from her tone, this woman seems to be someone of great importance. It's just that they were blind to her true identity and trespassed into a place they shouldn't have.
The masters who were watching in a daze couldn't help but excitedly clap and cheer for Jiang Qiao.
“Mingxin, you’re amazing. These people need to be taught a lesson. They weren’t like this when they attacked us, and they didn’t act like this when they were stealing our food.”
Jiang Qiao turned to her masters and said, "Keep an eye on them. If they dare to do anything underhanded, let me know."
"You guys hurry up and get to work—"
Those who lay on the ground wanted to speak, but those who could speak dared not, and those who could not speak were filled with fear.
Poison! This could kill someone! When did such a person arrive at this nunnery? I've never seen him before.
Unfortunately, no one would tell them who Jiang Qiao was. Wen Xueyi, the person in the nunnery, only allowed these disciples to call Jiang Qiao by the temporary Buddhist name she had given him.
She already knew the child's identity, so she decided not to cause any trouble for the child; the girl was already troublesome enough.
When the person lying on the ground heard the name Mingxin, they finally understood that this was a nun who had just arrived at the temple and would probably be staying there for a long time.
They really won't dare to come again next time. No one would do this to them, except for this guy in front of them. He looks good, but his heart is absolutely black, much blacker than theirs.
