Chapter 797: CaughtThe screams of the widowed r were wretched but no matter how painfully he scread, the won who were taking his daughter away did not stop. They had to look around for a long ti before they could find a house which did not have a woman before snatching this child, if they let her go, wouldn't it an that they will have to hand their own child to be eaten?
These won did not want such a tragic end for their children which was why they did not stop, Tan Mo and Xiao Yu looked at the r who was crying and screaming before turning to look at the won who were carrying the child away. They gritted their teeth before turning their eyes away from the sight in front of them, they wanted to stop this from happening which was why they looked around for a long ti but they could not find anything.
At the sa ti, they were worried that their children will be the ones who will be killed if they did not take the girl away. The two of them were torn between stopping the leader who was taking the child away or just going along with the flow.
" Please, I beg you! Take
if you want! I am the windowed and sick, I will not say a word even if you eat
alive! But she is my only child! If she dies I will not be able to live!" The widowed r scread again as he ran after the group of won with the village won of his village.
Tan Mo, the wife of Hu Bing heard this and then turned to look at the pitiful r before biting her lips. She was sick and starving but she had never sunk so low as offering her kids to Village head Chou as the other won did to save their skin, so of them did not even mind eating their own children to stay alive.
Of course, her heart was hurting when she heard that the girl was the only child of the r who had lost his wife. In the end, she exchanged a look with Xiao Yu who seed a bit reluctant but still nodded with so slight hesitation, she only ca here because she wanted to steal so ration, stealing a child was never on her quota.
This was why despite finding many suitable kids, she did not make a sound nor did she call the won who were with her to steal a child away but who would have thought that this woman who was carrying the daughter of the widowed r would steal the only daughter away of the poor r.
She gritted her teeth and then took out a slimy stone which was covered with moss, this was sothing that she had picked up when she heard the call of the won which told her that they have found sothing. She did not find the chance to use it earlier but now —— Xiao Yu glanced at the crowd behind them and then calculated the distance between the woman who was in the lead while carrying the child with her.
When she saw that it was the right ti, she threw the stone with a flick of her wrist when everyone was looking away, while Tan Mo covered for her. This way no one was able to catch what was happening or what Xiao Yu had done, the won who were running were all paying attention to the front with the child in the arms of the sturdy woman who could run faster than the rest.
The woman who was carrying the child was overjoyed, she knew that if the child was not brought back to her village then the one who will have to die would be her daughter because she was the one who was the sickest of all, with Xiao Yu and Tan Mo paying their debts off with the grains that their husbands had brought from the Big River Village, they will be safe for the ti being, but her daughter wouldn't be safe, given that her husbands did not find any grains when they went to their maternal hos.
The woman was so lost in her joy that she did not see the moss-covered stone which was lying in her path that was thrown over in front of her by Xiao Yu who could not bear the sight of a young girl being eaten alive.
Her foot stepped on the moss-covered stone which was slippery and smooth and before she could control herself, she tumbled down after getting slipped on the moss-covered stone. The woman fell on the ground with a loud thump and so did the child which she was carrying in her arms.
Seeing this the won who were following her were scared stiff, they turned to look at the crowd which was following them and then turned to look at the woman who was on the ground. They wanted to help the woman or at least snatch the child away but the woman fell at such a spot and ti that they did not have the ti to save her at all.
The group of won looked at the woman who was on the ground before helplessly looking at the crowd which was following them with thick sticks and flas. They knew that it was useless, there was no way they will be able to save the woman which was why they all left her on the ground and then rushed out of the path which was in front of them.
When the woman saw that her accomplices had left her behind, she wanted to run away as well leaving the child behind but by the ti this thought ca over her, it was already too late, the crowd with the rs and the widowed r had chased her down.
Now they were surrounding her with sticks and flas in their hands they all looked at her with a an look in their eyes and the woman knew that it was her end.
