No one expected Liu Shouyi to act desperately, and everyone screamed to warn Mo Qianshang to get out of the way.
Unexpectedly, Mo Qianshang stood still, clearly not taking Liu Shouyi seriously at all.
As Liu Shouyi was about to bump into her, the villagers present couldn't help but gasp. Liu Shouyi had always been pampered by Zhu Shi, and even though he had lost a lot of weight on the way to escape famine, he was still quite burly.
If they were to collide, Mo Qianshang, with her slender frame, would definitely suffer!
Little did they know that in the next instant, those who harbored such thoughts were shocked, their eyes widening in astonishment. Some even rubbed their eyes vigorously, their mouths full of exclamations.
"What did Miss Mo just do? Why did Liu Shouyi suddenly fall to the ground? Could it be that his stomach is hurting again?"
"I don't understand, I didn't see it clearly just now! But I'm sure that bastard Liu Shouyi didn't even cover his stomach, so he definitely didn't have an upset stomach!"
Amidst the chaotic speculations around her, Mo Qianshang lowered her chin slightly, looking down at Liu Shouyi with a cold glint in her dark pupils.
"Liu Shouyi, I told you long ago what the consequences would be if you came here to cause trouble again, but it seems you didn't listen at all."
"You slut..." Liu Shouyi wanted to curse the slut as soon as he opened his mouth, but Mo Qianshang kicked him back.
"You're so young and your mouth is so vicious. You've fallen into my hands, so I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"
As she spoke, Mo Qianshang raised a long, slender hand high. The sharp aura emanating from her body inexplicably reminded people of the scene when she killed a wild boar alone that day, and someone immediately stepped forward to stop her.
"Young Lady Mo, Liu Shouyi is just a child. You are a ruthless woman who can kill wild boars. This slap might even deafen him. Please have mercy!"
Once someone starts talking, others will continue to stand there and talk without any sense of responsibility, since it's not their family that's being extorted or framed anyway.
Having lived a lifetime, Mo Qianshang was all too familiar with the fickleness and ugliness of human nature. She swept two sharp glances at them, and the two immediately fell silent, lowering their heads to listen to her rebuttal.
"Just because you're young doesn't mean you can do anything! Do you have to make sure I'm seriously injured and killed by him before you'll admit that Liu Shouyi is wrong?!"
"Of course, I could have made things less serious. My family also ate wild boar meat for lunch. You can all take a good look at my four children. Did any of them get an upset stomach because they ate too much?"
Following her words, everyone involuntarily looked at the four little ones standing straight beside Qin Baiyi. Just as Mo Qianshang had said, they were all full of energy and showed no signs of discomfort whatsoever.
Even the youngest, Qin Yuya, had a normal rosy complexion on her face, without the slightest sign of illness.
While everyone hesitated and pondered, Mo Qianshang's slap still landed, but she held back and did not intend to make anyone deaf.
But just as her palm was about to touch Liu Shouyi's face, a "kind-hearted" person couldn't stand it anymore, rushed forward, and pushed Liu Shouyi away.
Mo Qianshang's slap missed its mark, but Liu Shouyi, due to being pushed and startled, bumped into a stone bench in the courtyard. Instantly, a bump the size of half a fist appeared on his forehead, and he was in so much pain that tears streamed down his face.
"Which bastard played a dirty trick on me? Ouch, that hurts so much! My head must be badly injured, you better pay up!"
Not only was his kindness misunderstood, but he was also being extorted. The person who pushed him felt extremely unlucky and, without thinking, retreated back into the crowd, not daring to peek out again.
Now that things have come to this, the others have realized that Mo Qianshang was right, and they no longer dare to chime in, letting Mo Qianshang continue to teach Liu Shouyi a lesson.
“I consider that slap to have been delivered, Liu Shouyi. Are you still lying in the yard, not leaving? Do you think I didn’t hit you hard enough?”
Upon glancing up and seeing the chilling smile on Mo Qianshang's lips, and realizing that the situation around him was unfavorable, Liu Shouyi hurriedly got up from the ground, covered the large bump on his forehead, and fled in a panic.
Overwhelmed with shame and indignation, Liu Shouyi ran for what seemed like an eternity before collapsing from his knees, panting heavily, yet still cursing Mo Qianshang under his breath.
"You wretched woman! You shameless slut! One day I'll make you regret what you did today. Just you wait, you'll get your comeuppance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a weak voice came from behind him, which startled him so much that he turned around and took several steps back.
"Liu Shouyi? It really is you! What's with this disheveled appearance? Tell me about it!"
After Liu Dashan woke up, he was targeted by the burly men who had injured him. They didn't pay him anything and even forced him to do things for them.
While everyone else is relaxing and enjoying delicious food at the mountain stronghold, he's stuck here chopping trees and firewood, working himself to the bone!
To make matters worse, while he was chopping wood, a coconut fell from the tree and hit him on the head, giving him a huge bump. Now he had a terrible headache.
Perhaps feeling that they were kindred spirits, Liu Shouyi's anger subsided somewhat, and he pursed his lips as he briefly recounted the story.
Upon hearing that it was that wicked woman Mo Qianshang who was behind it all, Liu Dashan's shrewd eyes narrowed, and a plan suddenly came to mind. However, his face remained weathered and bitter as he tried to get closer to Liu Shouyi.
"That slut is outrageous! She not only caused me so much suffering, but she even went after you, a child! God will surely punish such a wicked person!"
"Maybe... one day someone will actually have a relapse because of her, then let's see what excuse they have!"
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a fleeting glance, their eyes darting around uncertainly. Suddenly, Liu Shouyi grabbed Liu Dashan's arm as if grasping at a lifeline.
"Uncle Dashan, how about we team up to deal with that shrew? I suddenly remembered that I heard the old folks in the village say that the grass there is poisonous, but not fatal. It would be perfect for scheming against that shrew!"
As Liu Shouyi spoke, he released Liu Dashan's arm, stretched out the patch on his sleeve to cover his hand, and bent down to pull up a strangely shaped plant.
"I can't remember what this thing is called, but it can make a person feel like they've lost half their life within half a day."
Liu Dashan had initially thought Liu Shouyi was a good-for-nothing, but he was surprised to find that Liu Shouyi even knew about poisonous plants. He was secretly delighted.
But the next moment, the faint smile that had just appeared in the corner of his eye froze.
“Uncle Dashan, here’s what I’m thinking: since you have a grudge against that old hag, you can pretend to go to her place in front of everyone, and then eat this poisonous herb when you come back. Then I’ll make a scene, deliberately leading people to your place so that others will discover you’ve been poisoned…”
"If I just blend into the crowd and whisper some random hints, someone will definitely think of that old hag, and then she'll definitely get what's coming to her!"
Liu Dashan schemed against others every day, never imagining that one day he would be schemed against by Liu Shouyi, a mere kid who was only half a teenager, who even tried to make him eat poisonous herbs. Did he really think Liu Shouyi had lost his mind?
Still wanting to use him, Liu Dashan suppressed his displeasure and put on a pitiful look as he whispered something in Liu Shouyi's ear.
