Chapter 124: He Had to Dote on Her
The man was frightened by Qian Yiyun’s words and stammered, “Wh-what? She… She… She actually dared to do that? Miss Qian, she… has she…”
“Of course not.” Qian Yiyun raised her chin proudly. “I noticed it in time and kicked her away.”
Honestly, she simply did not want to bring home the water someone else had used for laundry washing. She was unaware that her sister-in-law always collected water flowing along the rock cliff.
“I… Miss Qian, please wait. I… I’ll go find the Chief.”
The man realized that the matter was serious and he could not be the one to decide what to do. He could only invite the Chief or the Junior Officer over.
…
Soon, the Chief, the Junior Officer, and many others gathered around the spring.
Wang Xing’er’s husband was also brought over by his grandmother and parents. The entire family looked at Wang Xing’er, who had yet to regain consciousness, with hatred.
“Look carefully, Grandson. Is such a woman really worth falling head over heels for? She’s a ruthless woman!”
The old woman looked at Wang Xing’er hatefully and slapped the man beside him on his head, trying to wake him up.
“Grandmother, I know I was wrong.”
The man lowered his head and did not dare to say a word. However, his eyes were filled with disappointment towards Wang Xing’er.
When he was locked up by his parents and grandmother, he was still contemplating an escape plan to share in his wife’s suffering. After all, she was his wife. He had to dote on her.
However, he did not expect Wang Xing’er to do this in such a short time!
She brought the clothes her father had worn to put them into the spring where all the villagers collected their water. This was no different from poisoning!
“I’ll ask the Chief to write a divorce letter. I’ll divorce this vicious woman!”
The old woman nodded in satisfaction. “Good, good.”
One should marry a virtuous person. Physical appearances should not matter as much. It was more important to have a heart that did not desire to cause harm to others.
“Chief, Junior Officer, we should send people from the village to guard this place every day. We can’t let those with ill intentions threaten our water source again,” someone suggested.
This was the water they used to cook and drink. They could not be careless.
“That’s a feasible idea.” Looking at the Chief, the Junior Officer nodded in agreement.
It was a coincidence that Qian Yiyun, who lived in An Jiuyue’s house, came to fetch water and discovered Wang Xing’er’s evil intentions. They might not be so lucky in the future.
“Let’s discuss this later. We can’t let these people destroy our only water source,” the Chief added.
“What about Wang Xing’er? Should we throw her out of the village?” someone asked.
“Well…” The Chief hesitated when he saw Wang Xing’er.
“Chief, you can’t let her off so easily. This woman is too vicious!”
“That’s right! This woman dared to poison us today. She may do other heartless things tomorrow. We can’t let her off so easily!”
Everyone chimed in when they saw the Chief’s hesitation.
The Chief was silent. He wanted to punish Wang Xing’er too.
