Quick Transmigration Hoarding: My Selfishness Leads to a Killing Frenzy

Chapter 432 The Village Woman Who Raises Others' Children 8

The world is vast, but nothing is greater than work points.

The next day, the brigade leader insisted that everyone finish their morning work before they gathered in the village square.

Breakfast? Why bother with breakfast?

They all felt listless when they first started work and were just waiting for the big meeting, so they figured they might as well skip the meal!

The square was bustling with people, and villagers gathered in twos and threes, whispering among themselves, their faces filled with excitement and gossip.

Qin Yu and Jiang Zhizhi were being held down, both keeping their heads down and not daring to look at the people around them.

Of course, I was dressed properly; it was broad daylight, and I couldn't let them pollute my eyes.

"Have you heard? Last night, Secretary Jiang's daughter was caught red-handed with Qin, the educated youth, in the cornfield!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, that scene, all white, it was really..."

"Sigh, I stayed home with the baby last night and didn't go out to see anything, what a pity..."

"Didn't Qin Zhiqing just break off her engagement with Meng Jiaojiao? How come she's already hooking up with Jiang Zhizhi so quickly?"

"Hey, what do you know? City people call this... what's it called again..."

"Seamless connection!"

"Yes, yes, yes! That's the one."

Qingmo mingled in the crowd, clutching half a cornbread her mother had given her, munching on it while listening intently to the gossip.

Her father, Captain Meng, stood on the stage, his face so gloomy it seemed to drip water.

"Quiet! Everyone, be quiet!"

The captain struck the gong, and the square gradually quieted down.

"The purpose of this meeting today is to seriously address the indecent incident that occurred last night!"

Captain Meng spoke in a loud voice, his gaze sweeping over the crowd below the stage.

Qin Yu and Jiang Zhizhi were bound hand and foot and brought onto the stage. The two of them lowered their heads, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Jiang Zhizhi's hair was disheveled and her eyes were red and swollen, clearly indicating that she had been crying all night.

Qin Yu wasn't in much better shape; he had several scratches on his face, probably inflicted by villagers in the chaos.

"Qin Yu, Jiang Zhizhi, what else do you two have to say?" Captain Meng asked coldly.

Qin Yu opened his mouth, but before he could utter a sound, the villagers below the stage spat in his face.

"Bah! Shameless thing!"

"This is immoral and scandalous! It must be severely punished!"

"Let them parade through the streets with their worn-out shoes hanging up their sleeves!"

Secretary Jiang stood below the stage, his face ashen, his fists clenched tightly.

His wife wiped away tears, muttering, "What a tragedy, what a tragedy..."

My second brother and sister-in-law didn't come; I was really embarrassed.

Captain Meng raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and continued, "Logically speaking, their behavior should have resulted in them being sent to the commune or the farm for reform."

As he spoke, the brigade leader's gaze fell on the village secretary, "However..."

“This Jiang Zhizhi is the Party Secretary’s daughter, so we can’t completely disregard her feelings. Let’s give the Party Secretary some face and resolve this matter in the village.”

The brigade leader's decision was certainly not due to the Party Secretary's influence.

If this matter gets out of hand, the reputation of their village will likely be ruined by these two. This is just a nice way of putting it.

"However, according to the village rules, having an affair is a crime punishable by public criticism and being paraded through the streets!"

"What do you all think we should do with them?"

"Paralyze them through the streets! Parade them through the streets!" the villagers shouted, waving their fists in a fit of rage.

They spat pebbles and saliva at them, and some even threw mud at them.

As for rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, there are none of those.

In the countryside, these are all valuable things; at the very least, they'd be used to feed pigs and chickens. The villagers wouldn't want to waste them.

Qingmo watched with great interest from below the stage, holding a few small pebbles in her hand and flicking them gently.

Good heavens, one got into Qin Yu's eye, and another scratched Jiang Zhizhi's face.

Both of them were immediately covered in blood.

"Ouch! It hurts!" they screamed.

The villagers were startled by what they saw and immediately fell silent.

They quickly threw away the mud and pebbles in their hands.

They were afraid of getting involved.

So many people were throwing stones just now, who knew which little darling would have such a good aim!

It's none of their business!

Don't ask them for compensation.

Jiang Zhizhi is alright, but Qin Zhiqing is a different story.

If a pebble gets into your eye, how can you expect to recover?

Qin Yu cried out in pain and tried to cover his eyes with his hands, but he was tied up.

A deep bloody scratch was left on Jiang Zhizhi's face by a pebble, running from her left eyebrow to her right cheek, and blood was flowing freely. She was so frightened that she burst into tears.

When the villagers below the stage realized that things had escalated, they all took a few steps back, fearing that they would be implicated.

"Who threw this?! Who did this?!"

With a roar, Secretary Jiang rushed onto the stage to protect his daughter, untied the rope from her, and glared fiercely at the crowd.

The Party Secretary's wife rushed over and burst into tears.

The captain frowned, stepped forward to check Qin Yu's injuries, and said in a deep voice, "Alright, that's enough for now, get him to the county hospital quickly!"

This injury looks serious; the village's barefoot doctor can't treat it.

The team leader immediately called for someone to bring the village tractor, and hurriedly took the two men to the hospital.

He is worried too!

I only wanted to teach them a lesson, but who would have thought this would happen!

County hospital.

After examining Qin Yu's eyes, the doctor shook his head: "The pebble is too deep; I'm afraid this eye can't be saved."

"Ah, ah! What did you say?!"

"My eyes, my eyes."

Upon hearing the doctor's words, Qin Yu broke down in tears, waving her hands wildly in the air.

The doctor could only have someone hold him down; the immediate priority was to remove the stones from his eyes.

Jiang Zhizhi's situation here is not good either. Her face is definitely ruined. There is a cut the size of half a fingernail that covers her entire face. There is no way to save her.

Who would have thought that a pebble could have such power?

Qingmo smiled and waved her hand: It's nothing, just a drop of water!

Sisters, calm down!!!

The other women were calm, but whether Jiang Zhizhi was calm or not is another matter.

Jie Jie Jie...
