"I don't need you! You black-hearted creatures, who knows whether you will take this chance to kill me!" When she thought of Mu Yunyao's actions earlier on in the house, she felt a cold shiver run down her spine.
Mu Yunyao walked to Li Shi. She pretended to check on her injuries. When she was sure no one was paying attention, she pressed onto Li Shi's injuries. Li Shi screamed in shock and fainted.
"Grandma! Are you alright, Grandma...Auntie Yang, could you help me carry Grandma into her house?"
Mu Yunyao was beautiful and petite. Even at the tender age of thirteen, she already had a unique aura. Especially those eyes, they were so very clear and bright. How could anyone resist? "Child, you're too kind-hearted...Alright, with your Grandma's broken leg, she would not be able to hurt you. Hey, the Zhangs! Come give us a hand."
Li Shi's house was not far. Her house, where she lived alone, was far bigger than the Mu Cheng's family's house. The house was originally built by Mu Cheng for him, Su Qing and Mu Yunyao to live in, but due to Li Shi constant abuse towards Su Qing, and the fact that she caused Mu Yunyao's premature birth, her Father built a new house for the three of them to move away to.
After settling Li Shi down, Mu Yunyao thanked the villagers. The villagers then quickly left to return home. In this cold winter weather, their ears were about to freeze off.
Su Qing still had not recovered from the shock. She wanted to speak but she found her teeth kept chattering. "Yao Er..." After all those events, she was scared.
Mu Yunyao held her hand and gave her a comforting hug. "Mother must be freezing, I shall go and light up the fireplace. There are still about four hours before the sun rises, you should go and sleep."
"Yao Er, is your Grandma alright?"
"Yes." Good people don't live long while bad people can live for thousand of years. Li Shi was definitely fine, earlier on when she was scolding them, she clearly had a lot of energy!
With the fireplace lit, Mu Yunyao pulled Su Qing to sit near it. The warmth calmed their minds and bodies. "Mother, sit here, I will go and clean up Grandma's injuries."
"Yao Er, you are hurt, let me do it."
"It's just a small matter, please listen to me Mother." Mother's personality was much too soft, if she were to deal with Li Shi, it would become a one-sided bully fest.
Su Qing still felt that this was improper, but seeing Mu Yunyao's stern face made her unconsciously follow her will.
Li Shi was lying on the bed, her leg was bent in a scary angle, blood continuously poured from her leg.
Mu Yunyao wet the cloth and used it to clean up the blood marks. She was very careful in cleaning up all the blood, but she was not gentle. Li Shi yelped and woke up from the pain.
"You...are you trying to kill me?" Li Shi's face was as pale as a sheet. This time, there was no one else here, if Mu Yunyao decided to do something bad, she would not be able to escape it.
Mu Yunyao laughed coldly, "What is Grandma saying? We are one family, how could I possibly kill you when I am supposed to perform my filial duty?"
"You are not a human! You are a ghost, a vengeful ghost!"
"If you did not do anything bad, you would not be afraid of ghosts coming to knock on your door. If you did not owe me anything, you would not be afraid of me taking revenge." Mu Yunyao forcefully straightened Li Shi's leg and then used a cloth to wrap it up.
The pain was so great. The moment Li Shi opened her mouth to curse her again, Mu Yunyao hit her wound.
"Ah, you little wretch….you are doing this on purpose..."
"I am a scaredy cat, Grandma should do her best not to scold me. If you open your mouth, I will be scared and I won't be able to control my strength."
Li Shi gritted her teeth, but she did not dare make any sound anymore.
Su Qing was looking on at the side, her heart thumping quickly in anxiousness.
"Mother, don't be scared, let's go to sleep."
"Yao Er, your hand..." Su Qing's heart hurt for Mu Yunyao. She gently held her held wrist. Mu Yunyao's palm had already looked really bad before. But after wetting it, her palm looked plain frightening,
"Mother, be at ease, after a few days it will be completely healed." Her skin was good and her injuries healed quickly. Plus, she had hardly ever gotten scars. In her past life, even when her broken leg was not tended for, even when the bones were poking out, in the end, everything was fine. Although the injury on her hand looked bad, it would not take long for it to become as good as new, otherwise she would not have went ahead and destroyed her skin.
