Everything in the house had been moved out. Her old chests and clothes were scattered on the floor in disarray.
“Mother… Grandma, what's going on? What's happened?”
Liang Zhaodi flew into another fit of rage when she saw Gu Ruoqing. She let go of Zhang Xiaohui and grabbed Gu Ruoqing's hair. She viciously slapped Gu Ruoqing.
“You useless creature, useless creature. Both you and your mother are useless creatures. You've destroyed our w.a.n.g family. Jinx… I'll beat this jinx to death…”
Piak piak piak!
“Ah ah ah…” Gu Ruoqing screamed in pain.
When Sun Mei, Chen Honghua, Liu Zao and the others, who had followed closely behind her, saw this scene, they were stunned for a long time. They only found out that misfortune had befallen the w.a.n.g family when they asked the bystanders.
They saw the old woman grab the basket on Gu Ruoqing's arm. “Meat! There's actually meat. This…”
Sun Mei acted without thinking. She rushed over and grabbed the basket. “This belongs to my family. My family! Gu Ruoqing, you took so much food from my family. Give it back to me!”
She grabbed Gu Ruoqing and gave her two slaps.
Chen Honghua also reacted and rushed over to grab the two eggs from Gu Ruoqing.
“How could you cheat me after taking so many things from my family. How dare you cheat us, how dare you cheat us…”
Chen Honghua also began to hit her. She pulled Gu Ruoqing's hair viciously.
Liang Zhaodi was shocked. “She took your food? When did she take it?”
“Wow! You useless creature, you took the things and secretly ate them yourself. Useless creature… I'll beat you to death…”
Sun Mei and Chen Honghua only realized then that they had been cheated. She had not taken the things they had given her back home. She had secretly eaten them all herself.
There were so many good things!
Their hearts ached and they were enraged. They rushed forward to beat and kick Gu Ruoqing.
“Ah ah ah… Save me… Ah… Let go…”
Gu Ruoqing screamed nonstop as they surrounded her and pulled her hair, punched her, and kicked her.
She knew that they would not let her off now that the truth had been revealed. She grabbed Sun Mei's arm and viciously bit her wrist.
“Ah…”
Sun Mei screamed shrilly.
Gu Ruoqing pushed her aside forcefully and used her to knock the others down. She herself turned and fled.
Sun Mei had been pushed and she crashed into the others behind her. She hurriedly scrambled to her feet to give chase. Chen Honghua, Liu Zao, w.a.n.g Li and the others all pursued her. Gu Ruoqing had cheated them out of so many good things. They certainly would not let her off so easily.
Liang Zhaodi also gave chase. Because when Gu Ruoqing fled, she had s.n.a.t.c.hed up the basket that Sun Mei had grabbed from her just now. There were meat, grain and other good things in it. She was going to get those things back.
Gu Ruoqing was in the front, running frantically while the rest pursued her, equally frantically. Zhang Xiaohui was free now. She collapsed to the ground, watching her fleeing daughter. She could not do anything except cry!
Gu Ruoqing did not dare to go back or be caught by the others. She ran frantically, without thought of where she was going. Her only wish was to lose the people behind her and find somewhere to hide.
She ran further and further away, until she reached some lonely alleys. She gingerly looked behind to ensure that no one was following. But a hand suddenly emerged from the side and pulled her towards him, then clamped down over her mouth.
A nasty voice rang out as someone gnashed his teeth. “Stupid girl, you and your mother have caused me so much trouble. I did not even dare to go home. Now I've finally caught you!”
Gu Ruoqing stared in terror at the wretched face in front of her.
w.a.n.g… w.a.n.g Mazi!
