Chapter 142: Chapter 142. She’s a Bad Person
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Aunt Qiu couldn’t bear to cry, and when she saw Qiu Yongkang turn around and leave, she saw Qiu Yue being put back into the rope. Her legs went soft, and she knelt on the ground, crying and begging Zhong Yong.
“Zhong Yong, don’t! Don’t! I’m begging you!”
Zhong Yong did not listen to Auntie Qiu and put Qiu Yue back into the noose. This woman had just scolded Su Qing for being a bad person.
Qiu Yue’s body was suspended in mid-air, and the belt was tightly wrapped around her slender neck as if it was going to break. Blood rushed to her head, and her eyes were filled with blood. The horror of facing death made her struggle desperately. Her tongue stuck out, and her two feet kicked desperately, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not step on the ground.
“Qiu Yue.”
Aunt Qiu cried as she hugged her daughter’s leg and lifted her. Only then did Qiu Yue catch her breath and hurriedly try to remove the belt from her neck?
Zhong Yong came over and pulled aunt Qiu away. Qiu Yue fell back into the rope again. This time, she had no strength to struggle, and her eyes were wide open with resentment.
“Help, help!”
Aunt Qiu rushed over and hugged her daughter’s leg again, shouting towards the outside of the forest.
The commotion here had alarmed everyone in the village. Old master Qiu walked into the forest with the help of his son. He was almost scared out of his wits when he saw his granddaughter hanging on a tree. He quickly ordered her to be put down.
Zhong Yong still refused to let her go.
“She’s bad. She wants Su Qing dead. I can’t let her go.”
First father Qiu was anxious when he saw his daughter hanging in the air. He did not care that he could not defeat Zhong Yong and knocked him away, so he hugged his daughter’s leg. Qiu Yue’s body swayed in the air, her hands supporting her jaw and her head hanging low.
“You get up.”
Zhong Yong grabbed father Qiu by the collar and threw him to the side. He crossed his arms and stood before Qiu Yue, blocking the way from her.
“Madam Li, we’ve treated you and your son well, and this is how you repay us?”
Seeing that no one could shake Zhong Yong, old master Qiu roared at Madam Li.
Madam Li had no choice but to live under someone else’s roof. She was forced to come over and pull Zhong Yong away.
No one else could pull Zhong Yong, but he didn’t dare to move when his mother pulled him, afraid that he would hurt his mother.
First father Qiu quickly carried his daughter down. Qiu Yue’s face was purple, and her tongue was hanging out. She looked like she was out of breath.
“Aiya, Qiu Yue.”
Aunt Qiu wailed and passed out.
Qiu Yongkang hugged his mother tightly, not daring to look at his sister’s body. He was also in pain but didn’t regret what he had done.
The lives of more than a hundred people in Peach Blossom Cove were more important than his sister’s.
Qiu Yue’s obsession was too strong. She could do anything now, but in the future, she would harm the entire village to get Shuisheng.
Jealousy was the scariest thing. It could turn a good person into a lunatic and an evil person.
“Yong ‘er, you’re crazy.”
Madam Li saw that Qiu Yue was hung to death. It’s over. If the clan leader’s granddaughter was hung to death, how could the mother and son still be here? She scolded him angrily.
“Big brother Qiu asked me to hang her up.”
Zhong Yong stiffened his neck. He felt he wasn’t in the wrong and the scourge couldn’t be left alive.
“Yongkang? Why are you doing this to your sister?”
When he heard Zhong Yong say that Yongkang told him to hang Qiu Yue, old master Qiu hit his grandson’s shoulder with his walking stick, he was furious, and the hit was not light.
” It’s all my fault. Grandpa hit me and scold me all you want. If you don’t want to vent your anger, kill me to avenge Qiu Yue.”!
Qiu Yongkang didn’t try to defend himself. He kneeled on the ground and accepted the punishment.
His sister was already dead, so he couldn’t say anything that would damage her reputation.
“You… You! You’ve read the books of the Saints in vain.”
Old master Qiu raised his walking stick and didn’t want to hit him again. He looked at his grandson in disappointment and said something even more severe than Qiu Yongkang.
Qiu Yongkang lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly. Forcing his sister to die would stain his life, and he would live in self-blame for the rest of his life.
Although he didn’t regret it, it was excruciating to be tortured by self-blame.
However, since he had already done it, Qiu Yongkang’s eyes were filled with determination.
“Aiya, hurry up and put her on the ground. Maybe it’ll help you recover.”
Wang Lamei’s mother pulled a few other women and lifted Qiu Yue onto the mound. Aunt Qiu lay on her daughter’s body and knocked on her body.
“Qiu Yue, you’ve hurt mother to death. Just wait; mother will go with you. I can’t let you be all alone.”
After saying that, Aunt Qiu got up and tried to hang herself but was held back by Aunt Li and Aunt Jiang. It was a mess.
“You guys go and dig a hole… Bury Qiu Yue!”
Old master Qiu ordered Li Daniu and the others with tears streaming down his face. He could not bear to see his granddaughter and staggered out of the forest.
When he passed by Zhong Yong and Madam Li, old master Qiu stopped and glared at Zhong Yong.
Madam Li quickly apologized,
“Master Qiu, I’m sorry. I’m being honest… We don’t have the face to stay here any longer.”
Madam Li had decided to take her son away from the Peach Blossom Cove team to protect Zhong Yong. One had to pay with their life for killing someone. If old master Qiu wanted to pursue the matter, her son would have to pay with his life for Qiu Yue.
Although human lives were worthless in this desolate year, the government would still care if the family members pursued the matter. Madam Li looked at old master Qiu with pleading eyes.
“Yong ‘er’s father died early and is the only one left. I’ll pay for it with my life if you’re still angry.”
“Mother, I’ll pay for it with my life.”
When Zhong Yong heard that his mother would pay for his life, he immediately knelt in front of old master Qiu and handed his iron hammer to old master Qiu. He roared,
“Old man, just kill me. I promise I won’t touch you.”
“Yong’er, old man, just kill me. Spare my life.”
Madam Li knelt before old master Qiu and spread her thin arms to protect her son. She looked at old master Qiu and begged.
“Godmother,”
Ji Xiaoying ran over to help Madam Li up, but Madam Li refused to get up no matter what. This scene left Xiaoying at a loss.
Old master Qiu sighed and waved his hand weakly.
“Get up; what use do I have for your lives?”
“Thank you, old man. Thank you.”
Madame Li kowtowed to the ground in a daze. Zhong Yong’s heart ached for her, and he blocked his mother with his arm while he kowtowed on her behalf.
The villagers of Peach Blossom were at a loss. In the past, they were killed by the armored Army and bandits, and now they are killed by their people. Would they still feel safe in the future?
Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi dug a hole with shovels while Aunt Qiu cried. She hugged her daughter and refused to let go.
When someone took Qiu Yue from her hands, she snatched her back. Once she let go, they would be separated, and mother and daughter would never see each other again.
Everyone saw how sad she was and didn’t dare to snatch Qiu Yue away anymore. They just let her hold her!
“Qiu Yue, why are you so stubborn? Can’t you live well?”
Aunt Qiu hated the young lady for being so stubborn that she had to sacrifice her life. She hit her back and scolded her with tears in her eyes.
“Mother Yue, let go. Let the child rest in peace.”
First father Qiu came over to persuade his wife. His eyes were also red from crying.
Li Daniu and old seven Jiang finished digging the pit and came over to carry Qiu Yue to the burial ground..
