Chapter 217 Throat Sweeping



Shumei grabbed Fu's mother's hand, and they both walked forward trembling with fear.

The two of them slowly bent down and squatted beside Xiaomei. Shumei called Xiaomei softly a few times, "Xiaomei, Xiaomei, are you okay? Xiaomei..."

She called out several times, but Xiaomei didn't respond. The fingers exposed outside moved slightly twice.

She looked at Fu's mother with a helpless look, not knowing whether she should help Xiaomei up. It was obvious that Xiaomei was unconscious, and she was a little scared.

Fu Jun stood there, silent, staring intently at Shumei and the others.

Mother Fu reached out and shook Xiaomei's back, "Xiaomei, Xiaomei, get up quickly and don't be sad. I'll take care of it for you. Fu Jun won't dare to embarrass you anymore."

Xiaomei still didn't raise her head to respond, and lay there motionless.

Li Yushu stood far away and was frightened by their crazy behavior and broke out in a cold sweat. He tentatively moved forward to see clearly what was happening to Xiaomei.

Wencai and Fu's father also came over.

Mother Fu hugged Xiaomei tightly and turned her over. The kitchen knife slipped to the ground and blood splattered out.

Shumei and Fu's mother turned pale with fear, and Fu's mother collapsed to the ground, her limbs trembling.

Shumei screamed in shock and sat down on the ground, covering her mouth with her hands, her eyes wide open.

Fu Jun looked at Xiaomei's pale and painful face, and saw the blood flowing from her neck. He was so scared that he staggered back.

At this critical moment, Wencai was the calmest and most decisive. He yelled at Fu Jun, "What are you doing standing there like an idiot? Human life is at stake. Hurry and take him to the hospital!"

"Oh!" Fu Jun was a little at a loss, but he still leaned down hurriedly, and with the help of everyone, he struggled to pick up Xiaomei.

Mother Fu came to her senses and hurried back to get a flashlight.

Surrounded by this group of good people, Fu Jun ran towards the clinic holding Xiaomei.

It was the middle of the night and the village was far from the town, so Fu Jun had no choice but to go to the health center first.

Wu Ju seemed to have heard something was wrong next door, so she quickly walked out of the courtyard with a flashlight to check. As soon as she left the house, she ran into Fu Jun and the others. In the dim flashlight light, Xiaomei's bleeding neck came into her sight.

She was so frightened that she was stunned for a moment, then she grabbed Shumei and asked hesitantly, "Shumei, what—what happened?"

"Mother, human life is at stake. I'll go over and see if I can help. I'll talk to you later."

Shumei looked anxious. She dealt with Wu Ju with a few words and quickly followed.

This dirt road is not as good as the concrete roads in the city. Wencai took into consideration that Li Yushu was old, had difficulty walking, and had poor eyesight, so he told Li Yushu to go back and rest first, and he would go over to see if there was anything he could do to help.

The blood from Xiaomei's neck was still flowing, and the bright red blood soaked Fu Jun's clothes. Xiaomei no longer had the consciousness to cover her wound, and just lay motionless in Fu Jun's arms.

After Shumei and the others left, Wu Ju learned from Li Yushu what had just happened.

Wu Jubie didn't care too much about Xiaomei's safety. After listening to Zhang Xiaoqin's words, she thought that this had nothing to do with their family, so she didn't bother worrying about it.

She yawned repeatedly, but still couldn't bear to go to sleep, and was still there persuading Li Yushu. She kept praising Shumei and told Li Yushu not to give up. As long as Li Yushu didn't give up, she would find a way to make Shumei willingly marry him.

Before, Li Yushu might have felt reluctant, but after witnessing what had just happened, he was still terrified. Even if Shumei was a good woman, he wouldn't force his son to marry her again. He sighed inwardly, "Marriage! It's best to be a marriage between equals, with mutual consent. Forcing a marriage isn't only bittersweet, it could even lead to death."

Wu Ju saw Li Yushu in a daze and asked, "Brother, how is it? Can you say something?"

Li Yushu came back to his senses and looked at Xiao Shuangning who was turning over on the ground and said, "The child's quilt is open, go and check it out. I'm really tired, so I won't touch my elder sister and chat anymore."

Li Yushu deliberately changed the subject, took the opportunity to stand up and walked towards the guest room in the courtyard.

"Huh?"

Wu Ju raised her arm, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

She watched Li Yushu enter the guest house, turned back to glance at Xiao Shuangning, and then walked into Zhang Xiaoqin's room.

She shook Zhang Xiaoqin's body and woke her up from her deep sleep.

"Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin, wake up, wake up quickly, human life is at stake."

Zhang Xiaoqin sat up angrily, rubbing her sleepy eyes. "What are you doing? Are you going to let me sleep or not?"

"Xiaoqin, something really happened. Something happened to Xiaomei."

"What happened?" Zhang Xiaoqin looked indifferent, and the anger on her face did not diminish despite Wu Ju's words.

"The old man said that she and Fu Jun both put knives to their necks, threatening each other, and then she accidentally stepped on a stick and fell to the ground with a thud, and the kitchen knife on her neck just cut into her neck. I just went out to take a look, and the bloody scene was really scary. The blood dripping to the ground, my God! It made me lose all sleep, and even if I did fall asleep, I would definitely have nightmares."

Wu Ju was explaining to Zhang Xiaoqin with her hands and feet, while Zhang Xiaoqin listened quietly with a blank expression.

After Wu Ju finished speaking, Zhang Xiaoqin took over the conversation.

"So is he dead?"

Her tone was so cold that it was frightening. It didn't sound like she cared about the life or death of a living person, but rather like she cared about an insignificant livestock.
