She flung her hands up and questioned them with reddened eyes.
Her words left everyone around speechless.
Even if they were washing clothes, they would collect some water and wash their clothes with the collected water at the foot of the mountain.
No one ever washed their clothes near the spring out of convenience. They were afraid that they would dirty the water and cause everyone to fall sick.
“This woman is crazy. She only cares about herself. Let’s chase her out,” someone said.
The others agreed with him. “Just chase her out. Don’t let her come to our village again. It’s too scary.”
Suddenly, a familiar voice was heard.
Everyone turned around and saw An Jiuyue walking over with Lu’er in her arms.
When Qian Yiyun saw her, she hurried over and took Lu’er into her arms.
“What’s going on? Why are there so many people here?” An Jiuyue asked.
She had come to take a look after she noticed that Qian Yiyun had been gone for so long. She did not expect to see so many people standing there, and they seemed to be judging someone.
Qian Yiyun briefly explained her discovery of Wang Xing’er to An Jiuyue. “So this happened…”
An Jiuyue narrowed her beautiful eyes and glanced dangerously at Wang Xing’er before walking toward her slowly.
“I didn’t think our village would have such a person. Heh.” She looked at Wang Xing’er and smiled.
“Master, I’m sensing infinite hatred and killing intent. That woman wants to kill you!” Wei Na immediately noticed Wang Xing’er’s hatred and quickly informed An Jiuyue.
Oh? Didn’t Master rescue Wang Xing’er during the flood? It had to be her to repay kindness with ingratitude?
“Nonsense. Do you think I can’t feel anything?” An Jiuyue snapped at Wei Na and continued to look at Wang Xing’er.
“You want to take revenge on me?” she asked, raising her eyebrows.
Although she phrased her words as a question, they confirmed that the woman wanted revenge.
“Huh? Sister Jiuyue, what are you talking about?” Qian Yiyun asked as she carried Lu’er over.
Everyone looked at An Jiuyue in confusion.
Is Wang Xing’er doing this to take revenge on An Jiuyue? What is this? Why can’t we understand?
Wang Xing’er took a step back guiltily and denied it stubbornly, “You… What nonsense are you spouting? I… I don’t even know you well!”
She wanted to take revenge on An Jiuyue for suggesting ways to prevent outsiders from entering the village. Her family could not enter because of that.
She had to stay in the straw shed filled with ill people. Otherwise, she would not have food to eat.
However, she could not admit that. The people in the village treated An Jiuyue as their savior and worshiped her like a deity.
She would definitely die miserably if she said she wanted to go against An Jiuyue now.
“You want revenge,” An Jiuyue did not waste her breath and said unwaveringly.
“My house is very close to the spring. Although it’s not a matter of who falls sick first, everyone will definitely suspect me if something happens to the spring.
“That’s because my house is the closest. By then, everyone would have contracted the epidemic disease, and I’m no exception.”
