Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Sun Li’s wife was so annoyed that she became furious, probably because she was too tired from climbing the mountain. Her face was covered with a layer of greasy sweat, which reflected some light under the moonlight.
Her expression was ferocious as she pointed at Jiang Xia and shouted, “You ignorant brat, who taught you to speak like this!”
Jiang Xia put on an innocent face and replied, “You were the one who said that to us just now. That’s why I’m imitating you. Didn’t you teach me to do that?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSun Li’s wife was rendered speechless, unexpectedly countered by a child.
Sun Li, seeing his wife’s disgraceful behavior, waved his hand impatiently for her to shut up. He thought she would only embarrass herself further, especially in front of a child.
Sun Li looked at Zhou Lan arrogantly and demanded, “What are you doing up the mountain in the middle of the night instead of sleeping at home? Have you done something guilty?”
Sun Li wasn’t there when Zhou Lan beat up the Jiang family, so he didn’t take her seriously. Now, there were two adults on their side, and Zhou Lan only had one child with her. He wasn’t afraid of a fight.
Jiang Xia took advantage of the fact that she was just a child and didn’t have to care about the adults’ dignity when she spoke. She stood in front of her mother and said, “Uncle Sun, we should follow the order of questions. We asked you first, so why are you not answering and instead asking us? If you don’t answer, then we won’t answer either!”
“You!” Sun Li was also at a loss, not expecting that Jiang Xia, a little girl, could be so sharp-tongued.
Sun Li’s wife, feeling guilty, then said, “We are here because we have run out of vegetables at home, so we came to the mountain to look for wild vegetables.”
“Why, instead of focusing on planting your crops, are you two obsessed with the scanty wild vegetables on the mountain? Didn’t you and Jiang Gui’s wife pluck all of them from this mountain?” Zhou Lan, who had a hot temper, didn’t mince her words at all. She retorted sharply, leaving Sun Li’s wife speechless.
“Besides, the village chief just distributed the seeds two days ago. What is the logic in that?”
Sun Li’s wife was speechless. She simply continued being unreasonable. “What’s it to you? I think you sneaking to the mountain in the middle of the night is definitely up to no good. You might have done something disgraceful that you want to hide.”
Clearly, they arrived earlier and even went up the mountain, but she was trying to frame Zhou Lan and her daughter as the ones with bad intentions.
Zhou Lan was not afraid of them. She had done nothing wrong. If they were really asked why they went up the mountain in the middle of the night, she would say it was because Jiang Chuan was feeling unwell and they went to the mountain to find herbs for him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone knew that Jiang Chuan was unwell and had been lying down all afternoon after the big scene created by Old Madam Jiang yesterday, so Zhou Lan’s words would not arouse suspicion.
Zhou Lan said confidently, “If you are not guilty, we might as well go to the village chief and reason things out. We’ll see who will be the one unable to explain themselves!”
Sun Li and his wife exchanged a guilty look, neither of them making a sound. Obviously, they were afraid that the matter might actually reach the village chief.
As the four of them stood closer, the scent of Sun Li and his wife slowly drifted over. Jiang Xia smelled the faint smell of blood and suddenly remembered that the two of them had made a fortune with the Jiang family’s eldest son.
At that time, Jiang Xia guessed that they had secretly gone to the mountain to steal wolf cubs, which is why the wolf pack descended the mountain and attacked her family and Shen Mo, who were also on the mountain.
Jiang Xia originally thought that after saving Shen Mo that day, the wolf pack had been exterminated, leaving only one or two wolves that escaped. She hadn’t expected that these two could still find wolf cubs on the mountain. There might be a wolf pack deeper in the mountain.
There was a famine these days, and every household was starving. The wolves definitely weren’t full either, and they would gather to attack the slightest bit of meat. Sun Li and his wife actually dared to blatantly steal the wolf cubs. Wasn’t that trying to lure the wolf pack down the mountain and into the village?
If the wolves were to gather and innocent villagers were injured or even killed, Sun Li and his wife would be in deep trouble!
