Every night these days, the villagers could hear the howling of He Dadong and He Dabei.
The villagers' current state has changed from being suddenly awakened and unable to fall asleep again, to waking up, cursing a few words and then turning over and going back to sleep.
So when Aunt Wu's house caught fire and the howling sounds rang out, no villager was willing to get up to watch.
Even the village chief covered his head with a pillow after hearing the sound. He felt impatient and angrily scolded Aunt Wu for meddling in other people's business and the young people in the He family for causing trouble.
It was not until later that Aunt Wu's husband and son went door to door, crying and begging, "My house is on fire, human lives are at stake, please put out the fire," that some villagers put on their clothes and pants, got up, and followed to put out the fire.
But by the time the villagers arrived to put out the fire, all three rooms of Aunt Wu's house had already been burned and most of them had been burned.
Aunt Wu was holding a bucket of water in her hand, sweat pouring down her forehead, and she was crying so miserably!
But the villagers had no time to comfort her. The fire was so big that if it wasn't put out quickly, it might affect the people living nearby.
The villagers worked together and brought their own buckets to help. The water tanks in every household were emptied, and they had to go to the well and the river to fetch water. It was such a dark day, and the villagers were not feeling good.
The room where He Dadong and his brothers lived was the place where the sparks first started. It was now burning fiercely, and the screams coming from inside were so loud that they made people shudder.
But the fire was so big that even a bucket of water poured on it didn't have any effect. So no villagers dared to go in to save people. After all, who would be willing to risk their own life for a few insignificant people
By the time the villagers finally put out the fire, it was already dawn. The air was filled with a burning smell and there was still a small wisp of smoke in the air.
Aunt Wu's family was intact, but the entire house was gone, and everything was gone.
The whole family looked as pale as death, sitting on the ground, not knowing what they were thinking!
None of the five brothers of the He family survived; they were all burned to death, their bodies turned into charcoal.
Some villagers bravely went to the burnt house and took a look. There was something blocking the door. No wonder the people inside couldn't get out. It was obvious that someone in the house deliberately blocked it.
But there are only five brothers of the He family in this room. No matter who did this, it is the He family's fault.
Some villagers turned pale with fear and muttered to the people around them: "The He family is really cruel. They are cruel to others and to their own family members."
The sound was not loud, but it seemed to wake up Aunt Wu and her family.
The always amiable old man Zhao kicked Aunt Wu, staring and panting, "It's all your fault, old woman, for looking for trouble. What did I, Zhao Guangming, do to marry such a troublesome old thing? If you hadn't brought those wicked people into our family, how could our family become like this?"
Aunt Wu was stunned. You know, she has been married to the Zhao family for almost 30 years, and her husband has never said a harsh word to her, let alone hit her.
However, not only Old Man Zhao, but even her son Zhao Hui looked at her with hatred and asked her: "You drove Ah Hua away and burned down their house. Are you satisfied now?"
Aunt Wu felt a chill in her heart. She was obviously kind-hearted and was doing good things, so why did everyone blame her
She subconsciously defended herself, "I heard from He Danan that it was He Dadong and He Dabei who set the fire. They are evil and vicious. How can you blame me? I was just kind-hearted..." Before she could finish her words, she was slapped in the face by the furious old man Zhao, "Kind-hearted? Who asked you to be kind-hearted? You clearly know that the five people in the He family are all bad guys. They dared to harm their sister-in-law and nephew at such a young age. Who would stand still when they saw them? Only you, a stupid woman, took them home. What do you mean by kindness? Don't you understand that you have to look at the person carefully when you are kind?"
When the villagers heard this, they all showed approval on their faces.
Even if you are kind, you have to choose the right person for the right purpose. If you are kind to an ungrateful person, isn't that just inviting a wolf into the house
Aunt Wu was scolded by her husband so harshly that she was completely dumbfounded.
Moreover, Old Man Zhao was also very cruel. Not only did he scold Aunt Wu, he also asked her to go back to her Wu family, saying that the Zhao family could not afford such a "kind-hearted" daughter-in-law.
Aunt Wu never dreamed that she would be driven back to her parents' home at such an old age. She also never thought that she was such a failure in life. Not only did no one in the village plead for her, but even Zhao Hui didn't say a word for her biological mother.
Especially after Meng Hua really filed for divorce, Zhao Hui, the son, hated Aunt Wu so much that he said he would never care about his mother again in his life.
When Aunt Wu's family found out what happened in the Zhao family, they were afraid that Aunt Wu would stay in the Wu family, so they urged her to leave every day.
But where can Aunt Wu go
The Zhao family and the Wu family treated her like a ball, kicking her back and forth. Villagers from both villages said that she was confused and had ruined her good life like this.
But Aunt Wu really didn’t know what she did wrong. She was obviously kind-hearted…
Zhou Chengming shook his head: "I heard that Aunt Wu's life is not easy. She has become a little crazy. She always chases people and says that she is kind and well-intentioned and that she is a good person."
Mingyue curled the corners of her mouth and did not feel sorry for Aunt Wu.
There is nothing wrong with being a good person and doing good things, but you have to know the right people to help and the right people to help, instead of just being kind to anyone you can find.
As for the five brothers of the He family, their final outcome was actually somewhat beyond Mingyue's expectations.
Mingyue originally thought that they would just be so scared that they would cut off their arms, but she didn't expect He Dadong and He Dabei to set a fire, causing the rest of the brothers to lose their lives.
The poison she put on He Dadong and He Dabei was called Night Green Swollen. After being poisoned, they would be normal during the day, but the poison would take effect at night, and the victim's arms would swell and turn green, accompanied by severe pain. However, the effect of this poison only lasted for one month, and then it would automatically disappear.
The pimple poison on He Danan and the others is painless and itchy when it attacks. It has no effect on the body except for affecting the appearance. The poison will fade away over time, and only a few marks will be left in the end!
She originally just wanted to give the He family a light punishment and a severe warning to prevent them from coming to her again in the future, but she didn't expect that a series of mistakes would lead to such an outcome.
But if you ask Mingyue if she regrets it, she really doesn't.
After all, the He family's ending was written by themselves, and they brought it upon themselves.
If you dare to harm others, you must be prepared to be retaliated against.
