After a while, Mingyue said casually without raising her head, "I've been sitting on the ground for too long, and my legs are a little numb. Can anyone help me?"
Although He Dadong felt that she was too troublesome, he walked forward without slowing down at all.
"You are the only one who is causing trouble." He Dabei muttered to himself, and he also walked over to pull the person. After all, if the elder sister-in-law got better soon, they could also go down the mountain earlier. He was almost starving to death.
Looking at the two hands stretched out in front of her, Mingyue narrowed her eyes and tightly grasped the wrists of the two people with her hands that were covered with herbal juice. With a little effort, she quickly stood up from the ground.
Mingyue had just let go of her hand when He Dadong saw a clear green sticky liquid on her wrist, which looked like snake saliva. He bent down with some disgust and wiped it casually on the grass by the roadside, but didn't take it seriously.
He Dabei only felt his wrist was extremely cold for a moment, and when he saw the green slime on it, he couldn't help but reveal a disgusted expression on his face. He cursed his sister-in-law in his heart, saying that she was already so old, but why did she still like to use weeds to pretend to be a drunkard
The gift had been delivered, and Mingyue didn't care about their expressions. She bent down and picked up her herbs from the ground. She held two clean roots in her mouth and chewed them slowly.
He Danan, who was standing by, curled his lips when he saw this, and secretly imitated the movements of a cow eating grass towards his fourth brother, secretly laughing at his eldest sister-in-law for being so hungry that she was picking up grass roots to eat.
He Daxi got the look from his third brother and started making funny expressions, which made the youngest He Dazhong cover his mouth and his shoulders tremble with laughter.
When going down the mountain, Mingyue was still walking in the front. She picked two more handfuls of herbs on the way. When she was about to go down the mountain and pass the path, drops of green medicine seeped out from the palm of her hand and dripped onto the grass by the roadside. Soon, the grass swept them onto the calves of He Dadong and others behind her.
Well, here’s the giveaway.
The He brothers didn't notice anything unusual. After all, it was normal to have weeds on the mountain path, and it was also normal for the weeds to grow lush and accidentally block them.
But they didn't know that the drops of medicine stuck to their exposed skin as the weeds swayed, and as time passed, the medicinal effect was slowly taking effect.
Unfortunately, the path down the mountain was narrow and steep, and their stomachs were already empty. They had to pay attention to the road and think about what to eat for lunch, so they had no time to pay attention to if anything was wrong with their brothers.
When the bright moon reached the foot of the mountain, it was already time for lunch and the villagers all rushed home.
Looking at the sun rising overhead, Mingyue estimated the time and deliberately led the He family towards the most crowded place. Soon they met the villagers.
An aunt saw that Mingyue's hands were full of green leaves and thought that she had gone to the mountain to pick wild vegetables. She smiled and greeted her, saying, "Mingyue, you went to the mountain, didn't you? Oh, how come you picked so many wild vegetables?"
The other aunts were also all smiles, and they all joked kindly:
"Mingyue is good at cooking. Even if she stir-fries wild vegetables, they will be very fragrant."
"Yes, Mingyue has been a capable person since she was young, and now she is even more capable. I am not exaggerating about your cooking skills. Every time you cook, most of the village is filled with the fragrance of your home. I will learn from you when I have free time next time, so that your fifth uncle won't always complain that my dishes are tasteless and salty."
"That's right. Hui Niang's house smells so good these days. My little grandson can't wait to climb over the wall to smell the food. Even the food at home doesn't smell good to him. Whoever marries Mingyue in the future will be in for a treat!"
However, before Mingyue could answer, He Dabei behind her couldn't help but jump out when he heard this and shouted, "What are you talking about? My sister-in-law is my eldest brother's wife, she will never marry again!"
Moreover, they would never allow their eldest sister-in-law to remarry. After all, if she remarried, what would happen to them brothers
He Dazhong straightened his chest and imitated his fifth brother, saying loudly: "That's right, our eldest sister-in-law won't get married." When people are in a group of people, they will subconsciously lock on to people they are familiar with, so the villagers didn't really notice the existence of the He brothers before.
But when they heard the sound, the villagers looked over immediately, and then bursts of exclamations came from the crowd.
"Oh my god, what is that?"
"Ugh, that's disgusting!"
"Oh my god, what's going on? Why are they covered in pimples? Can they be contagious?"
"Everyone stay away from them, they are so scary, like the reincarnation of a leper..."
It turned out that at this time, the bodies of the four He Dadong brothers were already covered with dense small bumps, which looked very scary. If someone who had been to the afterlife saw them, they would be able to think of an accurate word to describe them, which is that they now looked like pixelated people made of small bumps.
He Dadong had been thinking about something before and didn't notice what was happening around him. When he looked up, he saw Lao Si's face. He was so scared that he shivered and pointed at Lao Si with a shaking finger: "Lao Si, your face..."
However, just when he stretched out his hand, he found that there were exactly the same bumps on his hands and on the face of the fourth brother. And it was not just the fourth brother, but the other brothers had the same bumps as well, as if they were covered with dense small thorns.
He Dadong was usually very clever, but he was just a child in his teens. Seeing this sudden change, he was so scared that his eyes turned red and his whole body was shaking.
At this time, the other children also realized something was wrong. They were so scared that they started crying, shouting, and making a lot of noise. The scene was suddenly filled with noise.
The voices of his brothers helped He Dadong regain some composure. He clenched his hands tightly to hold back the scream that was about to burst out.
He calmed down, stretched out his hand to Mingyue, and said pleadingly: "Sister-in-law, my brothers and I are probably sick. Please take us to the hospital."
Mingyue took two steps back without hesitation and said in a cold voice: "Don't call me sister-in-law. I have nothing to do with you since you killed my child. And have you forgotten that if Aunt Zheng hadn't come quickly, I and the child in my belly would have been killed by you. How could I help such a heartless person like you?"
What the He brothers did and what the He family did had already spread throughout the area.
The villagers, who had originally felt sorry for these children, now remembered the good things they had done and immediately distanced themselves from them.
How cruel is it to attack a pregnant woman when she is so young? Is she still a human being? It is not an exaggeration to call her a beast.
Someone in the crowd suddenly said, "It's retribution, it's all retribution," and the villagers couldn't help but nod their heads, agreeing with this statement.
Isn’t this retribution? Otherwise, why do they have bumps on their bodies
