Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law

"ah"

"Click~"

He raised the knife and dropped it, and a heart-rending scream resounded through the night sky. The onlookers couldn't help but turn their heads, not wanting to see the bloody scene.

"My son." Madam Lu fainted from fright.

"Uncle." Han Aniang's face turned pale when she saw Chen Mo's knife fall. When she got closer and saw that Lu San's leg had only been broken, she breathed a sigh of relief. However, the worry on her face was still there, and she stepped forward. He grabbed Chen Mo's arm and hugged him tightly, not daring to let him mess around.

Han Anniang is a true person. In her concept, if you kill someone, you must pay with your life, and if you owe a debt, you must pay back money, regardless of the world.

She didn't want to see Chen Mo and Lu San trade one life for another.

Of course Chen Mo would not kill Lu San in front of everyone, but it was still possible to break his legs with the back of a knife.

With the strength of his knife, Lu San's right leg was crippled by the blow just now. He could hear the sound of the bones breaking. Even if it was restored, it would be disabled for life.

"Ah, my legs, my legs!" Lu San kept wailing, and the villagers finally realized that Lu San was not dead, but his legs were broken by Chen Mo.

After being shocked, he suddenly became quiet.

Obviously, they never expected that Brother Mo, who used to be a talkative and weak-mannered man, would now become so ruthless.

Someone would like to say a few more words.

Chen Mo glared at him, then took a step forward under Han Anniang's drag, with a fierce expression on his face: "What, you want to help this guy out?"

As soon as these words were spoken, those who wanted to speak quickly shut up. Chen Mo's cold eyes made their hearts tremble with fear, and they couldn't help but take two steps back. No one persuaded the Chen family to be generous and to be merciful. Forgive me, but there was an indescribable awkward atmosphere in the scene.

Chen Mo glanced at them coldly, then asked Han Anniang to let go of him and glanced at the wailing Lu San.

Lu San only thought that Chen Mo was still unwilling to let him go, so he hurriedly lay on the ground and groped around, shouting: "Don't hit me, don't hit me."

Seeing Chen Mo raise his hand, he even panicked and covered his head with his hands.

"Tell me honestly, are you here to steal food tonight or to borrow food? If you talk nonsense again, I will break your other leg as well, and you will do what you say." Chen Mo said coldly.

"I said, I...I came here to steal food. It was my mother. My mother told me to say that." Lu San put the responsibility on Mrs. Lu.

"Folks heard it, whether you believe it or not, that's the fact. You can do whatever you want with the reporter." Chen Mo still wanted to make the facts clear. As for whether they believed it or not, he didn't care.

The crowd fell silent again.

Chen Mo said coldly: "I'm going to teach you a lesson today, so get out of here."

"Get out, I'm getting out now."

Lu San dragged his legs and climbed out, not even caring about his mother.

Chen Mo raised his brows, looked at the villagers watching outside the courtyard, and said surreptitiously: "Don't you know, fellow villagers, come here to help?!"

The two villagers who had been accusing Chen Mo the most were looked down upon by Chen Mo. They quickly walked into the yard and left with Lu San and Lu Lao Niang.

Well, there is also a kitchen knife on the ground.

The villagers saw no excitement and dispersed in droves.

"Sure enough, if a good person is bullied and a good horse is ridden, hands-on is the best way to solve the problem."

Chen Mo thought to himself.

inside the house.

"Uncle." Han Anniang was still a little nervous, holding on to Chen Mo's knife-holding arm. It was too scary just now.

"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, I'm here." Chen Mo raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of Han Anniang's eyes with his fingertips, and said warmly.

Han Aniang suddenly jumped away like an electric shock, her beautiful eyes were charming, and her gorgeous and charming attitude made people's hearts throb and it was difficult to control themselves.

She tilted her head and did not dare to look at Chen Mo, and said: "Uncle, you got into trouble just now. You broke Lu San's leg. With so many people watching, the evidence is conclusive. What will happen if someone reports it to the police. "

Han Anniang has the mentality of a commoner and is afraid of getting into trouble.

"Don't worry, let alone whether the government will take care of it. Even if it does, sister-in-law, don't you still have more than two hundred coins? If the officials come, just give them the money."

In troubled times, official governance is bound to be corrupt and slack. This can be seen from the fact that the government did not take care of his and Wang Mazi's affairs before.

And money can make all the difference, let alone in today's world, at that time when his father first started his business.

Ahem, that’s too far off topic.

Chen Mo is pretty good at dealing with this kind of matter. Lu San, who has no money, no power, and no way to deal with it, why should he sue the official?

"Can"

"Okay, sister-in-law, I'm holding on until the sky falls. It's getting late. Go to bed quickly." Chen Mo raised his hand and wanted to pat Han Anniang's shoulder, but thought of something and retracted his hand midway.

Han Anniang blushed and said in a soft voice, "Uncle, you should go to bed early."

…

Early the next morning, Chen Mo was woken up by the noise outside. The first thing he touched when he woke up was the hatchet placed beside the bed.

When the hatchet was in hand, Chen Mo felt relieved, but then he showed a wry smile. Before traveling through time, he didn't need to worry about this. But when he came to this shitty world, he was frightened even after sleeping. He touched it as soon as he woke up. Knives have become muscle memory.

Han Aniang woke up earlier than him.

"Sister-in-law, why is it so busy outside?"

"Uncle woke up, Wang Mazi shouted to the young men in the village to go up the mountain." Han Anniang said.

While eating breakfast, Chen Mo heard someone scolding his mother in the distance.

Vaguely, Chen Mo heard someone scolding him.

It seemed like he was cursing him to have a bad death.

Chen Mo's face darkened.

Han Anniang said: "It seems to be Aunt Lu's voice."

"Sister-in-law, sit down while I go take a look." Chen Mo picked up the hatchet and walked out.

"Uncle" Han Anniang quickly followed.

A group of aunts had gathered in front of Lu's house. Madam Lu was sitting at the door with a small stool, cursing at Chen Mo.

"Brother Mo, that little bastard, bullied our orphans and widowed mothers, and even broke my son's legs. What kind of work will we do in the future? It's unreasonable. God, please open your eyes. "

A mother-in-law was advising: "Aunt Lu, stop screaming. This is your family's fault. Lu San even admitted that he went to steal food last night. If you call Brother Mo, it will be over."

"Nonsense, he was telling me to coerce me, so pity me."

Mrs. Lu continued to mourn. At this time, an aunt said that Brother Mo was here, and Mrs. Lu stopped immediately.

Chen Mo stood not far away and glared at Mrs. Lu coldly, but finally resisted and went back.

But not long after he returned, Mrs. Lu started scolding her again.

When Chen Mo passed by, she stopped scolding him.

As soon as Chen Mo left, she scolded him again.

Several times in a row.

Finally, Chen Mo came over this time and kicked Mrs. Lu to the ground.

Mrs. Lu is already very old, and she has only been living by digging tree roots and eating wild vegetables these days, and her body is not strong. Chen Mo's kick could kill her.

Grandson Hu'er ran out and hugged Mrs. Lu, crying in a childish voice: "Don't hit my grandma, don't hit my grandma."

Old people and children, holding their heads and crying, no one can bear to watch this scene.

Chen Mo wanted to stop.

But the old woman was also stubborn. She broke the jar and threw it, lying on the ground still cursing.

Chen Mo was heartbroken, rushed into the house, and broke the thumb of Lu San's right hand, and the wailing sound echoed through the Lu family.

The aunties who were watching all shrank their necks in fear.

Before Chen Mo left, he said to Madam Lu: "If you scold me once, I'll break one of your son's fingers. If you scold me again and again, I'll see if your son can hold on."
