Chapter 88: My Lord, Someone Needs to be Dealt With_1
They originally didn’t care, thinking that it wasn’t them who were poisoned, and they even wished An Jing and Xiao Changyi were poisoned to death.
But now, seeing more and more black fungus being dried in Xiao Changyi’s yard, they really couldn’t keep calm: What were Xiao Changyi and An Jing planning to do? They weren’t planning to poison them with the black fungus, were they?
The more they thought about it, the more scared they got, and the more they thought about it, the more terrified they became. The news quickly spread throughout the village, saying that An Jing and Xiao Changyi were drying lots and lots of black fungus, and for a time, the people of Jiuping Village were in a state of panic.
Even the village head couldn’t sit still anymore.
After hurriedly discussing with a few elders in the village, the village head led people to find Xiao Changyi and An Jing.
On the way, quite a few villagers followed along.
A big group of people marched noisily, and before they even reached the thatched cottage, someone called out in a hostile tone, "Xiao Changyi, An Jing, you two better come out here right away!"
In the kitchen, An Jing and Xiao Changyi had just seated themselves, ready for lunch, but just as they picked up their chopsticks, they heard someone calling for them, and the tone was quite bad, clearly there to pick a fight.
An Jing laughed immediately, "Husband, seems like someone needs to be put in their place."
Xiao Changyi didn’t speak, but simply put down his chopsticks, gave An Jing’s head an indulgent touch with his eyes full of affection, then walked out of the kitchen with An Jing, ready to confront them.
At the entrance of the courtyard, they opened the old wooden gate and saw a group of people led by the village head standing outside. An Jing confidently folded her arms and smiled, "Village head, in the middle of this bright day, you’re not eating lunch at home but coming to my house. What for? Could it be that you want to mooch off my meal?"
