Guo Xiang dodged to one side and raised her right leg to kick Gu Dacai’s waist. He fell to the ground like face first.
Holding the shoulder pole in his hand, Guo Xiang tried to get up, but Guo Xiang strode forward and stepped on the shoulder pole. Gu Dacai’s hand was pressed under the shoulder pole.
“O-ouch, my hand…” Gu Dacai screamed.
“How dare you hit my son? I’ll fight you!” Seeing her son in pain, Aunt Gu rushed over.
Yet on the other side, Gu Jianmin charged toward Wang Guiying and Guo’er. He may not be able to take down Guo Xiang, but taking down an old lady and a young girl would be easy.
Seeing Gu Jianmin, Guo Xiang hooked the pole under her feet and caught it with her hand. She threw it at Gu Jianmin’s leg.
With a bang, the pole hit the back of Gu Jianmin’s knee. His leg went weak and he knelt down in front of Wang Guiying. She was shocked and quickly pulled Guo’er back.
“Old man, son…” Aunt Gu shouted anxiously. She looked at Gu Jianmin in front of her and then looked at her son behind her. She didn’t know who she should help.
Without Guo Xiang’s control over him, Gu Daicai quickly got up. His eyes were red with anger. He saw a big stone on the side of the ragweeds. He picked up the stone and threw it at Guo Xiang’s head.
“Xiang Xiang, watch out…” Wang Guiying was scared out of her wits.
Guo Xiang turned her head and saw the rock was thrown at her. She leaned back and barely dodged the rock. Silently, she heaved a sigh of relief. Thank God she managed to dodge it. Otherwise, her head would have been split open by such a big rock.
However, because her body lacked exercise, she couldn’t hold herself up and fell backwards.
Seeing that they had an opportunity, the three of them pounced on her.
Guo Xiang rolled to avoid the three of them. Just when she was about to stand back up, a sharp scream came from behind, “I’m going to kill you!”
Guo’er had gone to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife and rushed over, her eyes crimson.
“Guo’er…” Wang Guiying was shocked. She had only been paying attention to Guo Xiang, and she didn’t even realize Guo’er ran away.
The little girl held the kitchen knife with both hands and her swollen eyes were filled with tears, “don’t hit my sister-in-law. If you do, I’ll fight you with my life!”
The three of them were shocked by Guo’er. They didn’t expect a child to be so fierce that she even dared to hold a knife.
Guo Xiang was also shocked. She quickly got up and walked to Guo’er’s side. “Guo’er, give me the Knife!”
“No, Guo Xiang, they’re going too far. I want, I want to kill them…” Guo’er’s hands were trembling as she cried.
“Guo’er, don’t be afraid. I’m here. I will protect you!” Guo Xiang’s heart ached, and she stretched out her hands to Guo’er. “Come, Guo’er, give the knife to me. I will help you vent your anger. I will never let them go!”
“Guo Xiang!” Guo’er cried out and lost strength in her hands. Guo Xiang quickly took the knife from her and hugged Guo’er. She felt terrible. When she was out with Wang Guiying, Guo’er had to face three adults by herself. She must have been terrified.
Wang Guiying also ran over and cried while hugging Guo’er.
Guo Xiang picked up the kitchen knife and walked toward the three people opposite her. Her face was cold and ruthless, frightening the three. They started stepping back, “W-what do you want?”
“What do I want?” Guo Xiang sneered. “I told you yesterday that I’m a fool, and I don’t care if I kill. Since you want to challenge me so bad, I’ll fulfil your wish!”
“Y-you wouldn’t dare…” the three of them turned pale with fright and ran out with their hands covering their heads. “Murder! Someone, help…”
Guo Xiang strode forward and grabbed Gu Dacai’s collar to pull him back. The kitchen knife was placed on his neck. “Why? Didn’t you want to challenge me?”
“I, I…” Gu Dacai was so scared that his legs started to tremble. Gu Jianmin and Aunt Gu’s faces turned pale.
“Listen carefully!” Guo Xiang pressed the kitchen knife on Gu Dacai’s neck. “Don’t ever step into my house again. If you ever come back, I will beat you up. Always, forever…”
“I-I won’t…” Gu Dacai’s whole body was shaking. Suddenly, Guo Xiang smelled a strange smell. She saw the liquid that was on the ground. Gu Dacai was so scared that he peed his pants.
She threw Gu Dacai aside in disgust, “coward!”
“And you!” Guo Xiang pointed at Gu Jianmin and Aunt Gu again. “If you ever come to find trouble again, I’ll break your legs!”
“W-we won’t!” The two elders shook their heads repeatedly and ran out of the house.
Many villagers who heard the commotion gathered outside to watch the commotion. When they saw the three people running out in a sorry state, they all laughed.
Seeing the crowd, Aunt Gu regained her confidence and started cursing loudly, “villagers, come and take a look. The daughter-in-law of the Gu family is murdering people!”
“We just came here to borrow some food. Not only did they refuse to lend us food, they also started getting violent. Just look at us. We deserve justice! ”
“And her, Wang Guiying! The Gu family has been unlucky enough to marry her into the family!” Aunt Gu pointed at Wang Guiying and exclaimed, spit flying everywhere, “She’s a jinx to her husband. She already killed the second brother, and she still wants to jinx us…”
Wang Guiying was so angry that her face turned red. Unlike Aunt Gu, she didn’t have a way with her words. Instead, she could only stay silent in anger.
“Do you really want to die?” Guo Xiang was furious and walked out with a kitchen knife. “I’ll grant your wish if you want to die!”
“Villagers, look, I’m not lying, am I? The daughter-in-law of the Gu family is threatening to murder me. How can our village tolerate such a woman who disrespects her elders?! Chase her out!” Aunt Gu took the opportunity and screamed.
“Yeah, how can you treat your elders like this? This is unfilial!” Someone said.
“She’s a fool. What does she know?”
“She doesn’t look stupid.”
“No matter what, this is wrong. Our village can’t have such a person!”
Guo Xiang was furious, “that’s none of your business! I’m disrespectful, so what?!”
She raised the kitchen knife and looked at Aunt Gu with a fierce expression, “Go and sue me then. Tell the elders of the Gu family to come. Let’s see if I’ll be afraid. I’ll beat up all the unreasonable elders. I”ll be waiting for someone brave enough to come and meet me!”
“You, you… I’ll go and tell the second grand uncle that you have to divorce Zhennan!” Gu Jianmin was flustered with anger.
“Hmph, go ahead! Do you think I’m afraid? You have my word. If any of you dare to bully my mother-in-law and my sister again, I won’t forgive you!” Guo Xiang said sternly, “You all know that I’m a fool. A fool kills without thinking about the consequences. If you’re not afraid of death, just come!”
“If any foolish elder wishes to talk me out of it, let them come, I’ll take It!” Guo Xiang shouted.
Aunt Gu was instantly dumbfounded. She thought that Guo Xiang would be afraid if she used an elder to threaten her, but she didn’t know that she didn’t care at all.
Even the powerful would be wary of the crazy. With Guo Xiang claiming herself to be a fool, she could say anything. Whoever foolish enough to challenge her will suffer.
Of course, even though she said it, she wouldn’t actually kill people.
However, she had to make her attitude clear. Otherwise, anybody could come and look for trouble. She would never be able to have peace of mind.
“Go and tell those so-called elders. If anyone dares to come to my house and make trouble, I’ll make sure they never go home alive!” Guo Xiang slammed the kitchen knife against the stone by the door with a loud clang, causing sparks to fly. The fierce force shocked the surrounding villagers.
This daughter-in-law of the Gu family was really a fool. What a crazy claim!
Guo Xiang glanced at the surrounding villagers coldly. Those who originally wanted to say something shut their mouths. They still treasured their own lives, so it was better not to meddle in other people’s business.
Guo Xiang held the kitchen knife and slammed the courtyard door with a clang, scaring everyone outside.
