Chapter 9 Catching the Robber



"Let me go! You bitch!" the man struggled, speaking angrily.

Jiang Jinxiu increased her pressure: "Will you talk or not?"

"It's my first time," the man said reluctantly, unable to break free.

Seeing that the man was still not being honest, Jiang Jinxiu's eyes flashed with malice: "Chengzi, he won't admit it, teach him a lesson."

In her past life, her mother-in-law was robbed on the way home late one night, which left her with a deep trauma. From then on, she never dared to go to town alone to buy things again.

The robber deserves to die!

Orange raised its sharp claws and scratched the man's face hard.

"ah……"

The excruciating pain on his face spread throughout his body, and streaks of blood instantly appeared on the man's face, with blood quickly overflowing.

The man closed his eyes in terror, buried his face in the hay, and shouted, "Don't scratch me! Don't come any closer!"

Jiang Jinxiu took out a rope from her spatial storage and tied the man up.

...

On the other side.

Gu Xichen was cutting rice, sweating profusely. When he got tired, he looked up in the direction of home and thought of his wife.

With a smile playing on his lips, he was brimming with energy.

He was originally coming back to visit his family and didn't need to work, but he came because he wanted to earn more work points for his family and it happened to be the busy rice harvest season.

"Oh, Gu Laosan's wife has run off with someone else, yet she's still working so hard," Li Cuihua said sarcastically as she passed by the edge of the field.

She remembered the grudge from yesterday when the Gu family mother and daughter chased and beat her, and now she finds everything about the Gu family displeasing.

"Watch your mouth." Gu Xichen looked at him coldly.

"Hmph, if you don't believe me, go back and see for yourself if your wife is still home."

Li Cuihua spoke with confidence because she went back at noon and happened to see Jiang Jinxiu walking towards the town.

It's not uncommon for couples to go through divorce proceedings and elope; there's a family in the next village that had a huge public scandal.

"Old hag Li, if you dare to spread rumors again, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Yang Dongmei, who was harvesting rice nearby, was furious. She grabbed a handful of mud from the field and threw it at her.

Upon seeing this, Li Cuihua ran away as if the wind was blowing, the place where she had been beaten yesterday still throbbing with pain.

Gu Xichen gripped the sickle tightly in her hand, looking in the direction of home, her eyes dark and lifeless. Was she still unwilling to stay?

Looking at her son's expression, Yang Dongmei knew that he was no longer in the right state of mind.

"Third brother, you go home first. There's not much left. I'll cut it."

The Gu family home was quiet; everyone had gone to work and hadn't returned. Jiang Jinxiu was nowhere to be seen, either inside or outside the house.

Gu Xichen sat blankly on the bed where the two of them had lain together the night before, his eyes devoid of any life.
