Chapter 143 - Night
My Children Are Fierce and Adorable!
Li Yue said, âThe person youâre talking about is very obvious. I know him. Heâs Brother Wei from the city, right?â
The village head returned to the main topic with a solemn expression. He was the village head, one of the most frequent people who left for the city in the village. He was the most familiar with the city. Brother Wei committed all kinds of crimes in the city, and his name was well known by everyone. Therefore, the village head knew who it was.
âItâs actually Brother Weiâ¦â The village head frowned. âThat would be troublesome. I donât know what happened to Brother Wei. He actually came to our village to steal children? How did he know that we have triplets in our village⦠Moreover, Brother Wei is an evil person and has some influence in the city. He has run away now. Fortunately, we got the child back, but I donât know how to catch him. â
It was not that the village head was afraid of trouble, but it was indeed troublesome. They could not catch him.
âA few days ago, a big girl in the city was abducted by Brother Wei⦠In the end, she was thrown out naked on the street. However, no one got hold of Brother Wei because they couldnât catch him red-handed. There was no evidence, and they didnât dare to provoke Brother Wei.â
The village headâs expression was bad.
When these words were said, everyone in the village was silent.
It was unknown what most people were thinking. However, at this moment, a malicious voice sounded. âWhat should we do? Itâs all the Guan familyâs fault! Most importantly, itâs that Ye Lulu! Since she gave birth to three children and attracted the villains, wouldnât our village offend people that we canât afford to offend? Wonât we suffer in the future?! What should we do?!â
Guan Chibei looked over and saw Auntie Tian standing among the villagers with a mean look in her eyes.
Immediately, the expressions of some villagers changed. They looked at the Guan family hesitantly and fearfullyâ¦
A bad atmosphere rose.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Guan Chibeiâs dark eyes swept past Auntie Tian and he said unhurriedly, âItâs almost winter. Why would Brother Wei come to steal children? He wants to earn money. Our family is the first to have a child nearly carried away. The village is wide open and anyone can come. What if it were someone elseâs turn next time⦠The village has babies all year round.â
âThis isnât someone our Guan family attracted over, but our Guan family was the first to be harmed. If Brother Wei and the rest think that the people in our village are easy to bully and specially came to steal children, we should be feeling afraid and worried now, instead of thinking about other things.â
Guan Chibeiâs calm voice seemed to have swept past Auntie Tian as he said, âItâs best if someone doesnât pick on our Guan family. This matter involves the entire village, and itâs not our Guan family who should be responsible.â
The atmosphere in the village became silent again with deep worry.
Guan Chibei had made it too clear!
Yes, that was it. There was no need to blame the Guan family. Brother Wei and the rest came to the village because they felt that small villages in the mountains were easy to bully. Furthermore, they wanted to steal children to exchange for money before the New Year.
This was a very bad matter. The entire village needed to think of a countermeasure and not divert the conflict.
âBut that was also because your Guan family gave birth to triplets! News of this spread, thatâs why it attracted people.â Auntie Tian didnât relent and said, âIt was your Guan family who attracted the villains to our village! Now that the villains have their eyes on our village, itâs all because of your Guan family! According to me, that beggar daughter-in-law of yours, Ye Lulu, is a disaster. The triplets she gave birth to are three scourges!â
âI knew it. That Ye Lulu was so skinny. She had no breasts and no buttocks. It was not easy for her to give birth. How could she give birth to three children in one go? Look, those three are scourges!â
It turned out that Auntie Tianâs heart was really vicious.
She actually labeled the three babies who had just turned one month old as extremely vicious and wanted to call them scourgesâ¦
One had to know that in ancient times, this was a huge taboo.
There were indeed villagers whose expressions changed.
Guan Chibei looked into Auntie Tianâs dark eyes. His aura did not change, but his voice was calm and intimidating. âAccording to what you said, that big girl in the city was harmed because she was a scourge. Thatâs why she attracted villains? Therefore, the girls in the entire Yuan City have to blame that big girl for attracting Brother Wei and not Brother Wei himself?â
âBrother Wei even went against the government and stole their rice grains, but the government didnât capture him. According to what you said, the government is a scourge as well. They displayed so many rice grains for Brother Wei to steal. Now, everyone has to be worried that Brother Wei will steal their rice grains. Itâs all the governmentâs fault, right?â
Auntie Tianâs mouth turned hoarse.
Guan Chibeiâs thoughts were calm and collected.
The former was fine. Since Brother Wei could harm her and even throw her out naked, it must be that girl who was indecent. She was probably alluring. Otherwise, why would she attract men?
However, when it came to the government, ordinary citizens immediately cowered when they heard about them. They were shocked and did not dare to argue.
Guan Chibei revealed a cold expression. âBrother Wei chose our family first and almost took the child away. We chased the child back and it was considered fine. What If he chooses another family and takes the child away but you do not manage to chase him back? Everyone should think carefully about the consequences.â
Guan Chibeiâs words pulled back the thoughts of the villagers.
Those who had just given birth could not help but shiver.
Yes, the Guan family was lucky and there were many people. The child was almost carried away but they still chased him back. But what if it was another family?
They shouldnât be resenting the Guan family now. Instead, they should be on guard together against these villains.
Auntie Tian choked back her words. She was still black-hearted and extremely indignant. She wanted to say something, but Auntie Huang, who was helping the Guan family, couldnât help but curse.
âThis black-hearted person from the Tian family is bent on splashing dirty water on the Guan family, right? In that case, when your Tie Wa left for the city last time, he even stole other peopleâs sugar! While they were turning around to receive the money, he used his pocket to grab more than one catty of sugar! He hid it and returned to the village! That merchant in the city chased him all the way to the village! Then, shouldnât you blame your Tie Wa for making our village a laughing stock?â
âYouâre really evil. Their biological father was still alive after they were born. Their mother was also fine. There were no disasters in our village either. It was because they were too beautiful that the villains almost carried them away. You, a black-hearted woman from the Tian family, splashed dirty water and said that the children were scourges! Why are you so wicked? You deserve to not have given birth to a second son.â
Auntie Huangâs combat strength was comparable to Mother Rongâs. Furthermore, she was a small loudspeaker. She spoke very well and the last trace of doubt on everyoneâs faces disappeared.
That was right. Speaking of Guan Chibeiâs rebirth and that Ye Lulu was fine after a difficult labor, didnât this prove that the triplets were lucky stars and not scourges?
Their father could even come back to life!
The villagers were completely at ease.
As for Auntie Tian, she choked on her words until she panicked. She was indignant as long as she didnât harm the Guan family. Now, Auntie Huang mercilessly poked her sore spot and said that she wouldnât be able to give birth to a second son.
Auntie Tianâs face immediately darkened as she shouted at everyone,
âBut I have big buttocks and itâs easy for me to give birth! Which villager doesnât admit that this is a saying passed down by the ancestors? So why did that Ye Lulu give birth to three skinny children in her lifetime?! Tell me the reason. If that Ye Lulu wants big buttocks, she doesnât have big buttocks. If she wants a chest, she doesnât have a chest! How can she give birth? How can she raise them?!â
Auntie Tian had really pushed her unreasonableness to the limit by saying such crooked logic. However, the problem was that this theory had really been passed down for many years. No one could refute it at that moment.
At this moment, Guan Chibei stood in front of everyone. His eyes were dark as he followed Auntie Tianâs words. It was unknown if he did not think deeply or if he was deliberate, but he suddenly said,
âWho said that my wife doesnât have big buttocks or a chest?â
