Chapter 119: I Won’t Let Her Off Easily
Without An Jiuyue, the people from other villages might have already entered their village. They might have all contracted the epidemic disease too.
Although they sympathized with the people from other villages, the most important thing now was to save their lives. No one would have the ability to care for others if they, too, lost their lives.
The villagers were so grateful to An Jiuyue that those who criticized her previously stopped doing so.
Someone said, “Aunt Lan, your daughter-in-law is bad.”
Aunt Lan could not say anything else and simply turned around to help her mother-in-law back inside.
“Everyone, let’s go home and take a shower.” Everyone turned around and left too.
Wang Xing’er saw from afar that all the men outside the village had left. Even her in-laws had left. The hatred in her heart grew, and she wished she could set fire to them.
Wang Xing’er’s mother recalled what happened and sighed.
“Xing’er, I told you. Don’t come here, we can stay in the straw shed in our village. Why didn’t you listen to me?”
Although they had been chased out of their homes, they could live in straw sheds outside their village. The villagers would often come to deliver food to those who had contracted the disease. They were not completely homeless.
They could still go home after they were cured. Since they could go home, why did they have to come here?
Besides, if the people in their village would not let them stay, those from other villages would also refuse.
She had also heard from the men that no one in this village had contracted the epidemic disease.
They would be guilty of a heinous crime if the villagers contracted the disease because of them.
“Mother, how can you speak up for them?”
Wang Xing’er stared at her mother in disbelief. She could not believe that her mother was the one who said those words.
“Who am I doing this for? It’s all for you! Look at Father’s current state. If he can’t rest well, he will die! This is all because my mother-in-law and grandmother-in-law are too selfish. They won’t even help with such a small matter!
“Hmph! I’ll teach her a lesson when this epidemic is over. I won’t let her off easily!”
I’ll definitely make life difficult for those afraid of death, especially that useless mother-in-law of mine!
“You—”
The old woman almost died of anger.
She turned around and looked at her daughter-in-law, who had not said a word on the way here. Instead, her daughter-in-law had been worried about her daughter’s two children, afraid that they would spread the disease to them.
Her daughter-in-law had been considerate towards her and did not want to make things difficult for her.
But what about her own daughter?
Her daughter spoke terribly to her mother-in-law and did not even think of her children. It was not what a mother should be like.
“Xing’er, why did you become like this?”
She wondered if she had spoiled her daughter so much that she became so unreasonable and would not even care about her family.
“Mother, I haven’t changed. They’re the ones who… This won’t do. They were heartless to me, so don’t blame me for my disloyalty. I can’t let them off easily!”
