Fortunately, everyone was enjoying their meal. The Summer Old Man had already started gathering firewood early in the morning, and after breakfast, he stubbornly headed to Town. On the way, he ran into the Wu Family and exchanged some sarcastic remarks, but there was no argument.
Xia Muxin kept her word; after finishing breakfast, she went with Summer Forest and Songzi to chop down some fencing. They returned and busied themselves for the entire morning, successfully enclosing the entrance of the Thatched Cottage.
The Wu Family and the You Family were supervising closely. Even if the fence was off by a single centimeter, they would glare at you until you pulled it out and reinserted it. Fortunately, Xia Muxin had a plan. She measured everything with a straight wooden stick, ensuring it was perfect. With two pairs of watchful eyes glaring at her, filled with anger and frustration, Xia Muxin felt a surge of joy. Once they finished, she clapped her hands and said lightly, "Oh dear, Songzi, your sister is truly impressive. I wonder if anyone will be furious later. If it falls in the wrong position and occupies our land... Luckily, we've scattered thorns around here; if it does fall, it won't kill anyone but will surely cause some pain."
Songzi had always been proud of Xia Muxin. No matter what she did, he admired her. At this moment, he pounded his chest and said, "Of course! Who is my sister? She's sent from the heavens to punish evildoers." After saying that, the two siblings returned to the house in perfect harmony.
The Wu Family and You Family were quite upset; they couldn't even eat lunch. After Zhou Cailian finished cleaning up the bowls, Tang Sanwan arrived with some pastries that Zhou Qinglian had asked her to bring.
"Three bowls! Has Lord Wang woken up?" Zhou Qinglian's thoughtfulness made You Family beam with joy. The Wu Family's face, which resembled a pot bottom, softened considerably as they lifted the soft cloth to peek at the pastries while asking.
Dealing with Xia Muxin without the Wang family was impossible; after all, in this village, only the Wang family could act tyrannically without anyone daring to resist. She wanted to do something about it but lacked the Wang family's influence. Therefore, all she could do was use others to achieve her goals.
Upon hearing this, Tang Sanwan had something to say. She spat on the ground and loudly addressed the Xia Family's door: "Oh dear! You probably don't know this; they hired ten doctors! Can you guess what happened in the end? The problem lay at his feet because in all that chaos earlier, they forgot to bring Lord Wang his slippers. As soon as those slippers were brought over, his feet were covered in thorns! After those doctors carefully examined them after pulling them out, they discovered that these thorns were coated with lethal poison. When Lord Wang woke up, he was furious and vowed to catch the culprit and punish her severely—best case scenario would be to sever her limbs so she could never do harm again!"
Tang Sanwan's actions were noticed by the Wu Family, You Family, Zhou Yousheng, and several daughters who understood her intentions well. You Family couldn't help but smile broadly as they strode toward the door and shouted toward the Xia Family's direction: "I never expected there could be such a malicious person in our village—someone who would go so far as to cripple another!"
The Wu Family didn't mince words either; following You Family's lead, they added: "Severing limbs is necessary! We can't have these lowly creatures thinking they're clever while disrespecting their elders without any shame!"
On that side, they were joyfully singing back and forth, while Xia Muxin here was overwhelmed, shaking her head with a smile upon hearing their words. She had seen foolishness before, but never this level of stupidity.
It was as if they were a complete mess.
