Because He Mei couldn't be found, the atmosphere at the He family's home was very tense these past few days.
Liu Caihong then became the target of the He family's anger once again.
She realized that whenever something went wrong for the He family, she would be the one to suffer.
Their excuses are ridiculous.
That is, she's a jinx to their family.
hehe--
If it could really bring misfortune to the He family, she would want to bring death to everyone in the He family.
She wanted to secretly retrieve the money she had brought with her.
But they searched the entire He family home and still couldn't find it. They had no idea where they had hidden all her money.
Without money, she couldn't go anywhere.
After being beaten for several days in a row, Liu Caihong wanted to secretly tell the village chief that He Mei had disappeared while having a secret rendezvous with her lover. However, she had only walked a few steps out of He's house when she saw He Mei return.
It's the same outfit as before.
However, her complexion seemed a bit rounder.
It seems like I've been well-nourished these past few days.
Her eyes also held a touch of coquettishness.
What's this? Has she found a new lover?
Liu Caihong just stared at He Mei as she entered the He family home.
Although He Mei has been in the mountains these past few days, she has been eating better there than at home.
He Chao hunts and roasts for her every day.
Although they had to move to a different location after each time they finished grilling and eating, this did not stop them from eating meat every day in the deep mountains.
She was certain that she had eaten more meat in the mountains these past few days than she had in all her decades of life.
After learning more, she found out that He Chao was also from a nearby village and was a well-known hunting expert in Hejia Village. Most of the injuries on his face were from hunting, and there were also a few deep scars from fighting with others.
Because going into the mountains takes several days, sometimes even longer, his wife started having an affair with the man next door.
One day, he happened to run into the man when he returned from hunting. He was blinded by rage, killed the man, and then tied his wife to a stone and drowned her in the river.
He Mei recalled the female corpse found in the river that had caused such a stir in their Gujia Village some time ago.
A chill ran down my spine.
She asked if that was his wife.
He Chao nodded without hesitation. He looked at He Mei and said without any warmth, "So, don't betray me, or you'll end up like her."
He Mei felt a chill run through her body after hearing this; she knew very well who the "she" he was referring to was.
Despite the chills running down her spine, she suppressed her fear and playfully hugged his arm, saying, "Brother Chao, what are you thinking? Do you think I'm that kind of person? You can put your mind at ease."
She told Jiang Jinhua about discovering the female corpse at the bottom of the river, and also told him that Jiang Jinhua was one of her enemies.
He Chao only glanced at her and didn't react otherwise, so she didn't know what he was thinking.
A few days later, he told her he wanted to go down the mountain.
Actually, she didn't want to come back so soon.
However, He Chao wanted to go down the mountain and didn't want to stay there any longer. He even told her that as long as they could find a way to get down the mountain and leave this place safely, he would definitely be able to take her to eat more delicious food in the future.
More importantly, he mentioned that only by going down the mountain could he help her take revenge, so she agreed to go down the mountain without hesitation.
Last night, He Chao led her to the foot of the mountain and successfully avoided the guards. She led him back to Gujia Village via a small path that only she knew.
They had been hiding in a dilapidated house not far from the foot of the mountain all night.
In this way, if they are discovered, they can quickly hide back in the mountains.
He Mei was so hungry that she secretly went home to get some food.
I never expected to see Liu Caihong, who had just left home, as soon as I arrived at my doorstep.
Liu Caihong seemed quite surprised to see her.
After He Mei entered the He family home, Liu Caihong followed her in.
When He Mei's mother saw her return, she burst into tears of joy.
"Child, where have you been? You haven't come back for so many days."
"Mother, I'm fine. Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."
"Yes, yes, yes..."
Mother He quickly went into the kitchen and brought out a bowl of pickled vegetable porridge, along with a few sweet potatoes.
He Mei was starving. Although she had eaten well on the mountain, they had forgotten to prepare food after coming down, and she hadn't eaten breakfast yet.
After she finished eating, she noticed Liu Caihong's injuries. "What happened to you?"
Liu Caihong hesitated, thinking, "What's the point of saying anything? She won't protect me anyway."
What's more, they are enemies.
He Mei knew everything by now; she had been beaten by her brother again.
"Mom, tell my brother to hit my sister-in-law less in the future. She still has to bear our children. Besides, if you hurt her, who will do the housework?"
Liu Caihong felt numb upon hearing her words.
The He family is rotten to the core.
What's the difference between them, really?
Now that her parents and brother are gone, she is all alone.
Now, there is only one reason for her to live: revenge.
She will not let anyone who has bullied her family or anyone who has bullied her get away with it.
In the past, when she thought about these things, she would show it on her face.
But after being beaten so many times, she has now learned to hide it.
She kept everything to herself; at least outwardly, she wouldn't let anyone else see what she was thinking.
She had learned in recent days where the He family stored their pesticides.
After Jiang Jinxiu and Jiang Jinhua were punished accordingly, she cooked a pot of porridge containing pesticide for the He family.
Just thinking about it makes me think it's amazing.
He Mei sent her mother away.
After closing the door, she walked over to Liu Caihong and called her name several times, but Liu Caihong didn't respond. So she had to give her a push: "What are you thinking about? You're so engrossed in it?"
Liu Caihong then snapped out of her thoughts and realized what was wrong. "It's nothing, what's wrong?"
He Mei leaned closer to her and whispered, "There's a chance to get revenge on Jiang Jinxiu, but I need your help. Do you dare to do it?"
Liu Caihong frowned as she looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
He Mei leaned close to her ear and whispered for a while.
Upon hearing this, Liu Caihong's expression changed several times.
She had been thinking about how to get revenge on Jiang Jinxiu, and now the opportunity had come.
She nodded in agreement with He Mei's idea, but only on the condition that she meet the man.
When He Mei took her to see the man, she was truly terrified when she saw his face.
With his scarred face, robust physique, and imposing aura, few people would not be intimidated.
Her body trembled uncontrollably.
He Mei noticed her unusual expression and patted her shoulder. "Don't be afraid. Brother Chao won't hurt you. He will help us get revenge. As long as you do as we say, those two siblings' good days are not far away."
