The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich

Chapter 47: A House Call

They heard that the jinx went up the mountain that afternoon. Did she kill the tiger?

And then, this child who was so puny, carried a big tiger that weighed 500-600 catties down the mountain?

This was too shocking!

Many villagers cried out in surprise when they saw Lin Yuelan carrying the big tiger. Immediately, the news spread throughout the entire village.

Lin Laosan’s family was about to go to bed and rest.

Li Cuihua, in particular, was certain that the jinx had died on the mountain because she had not returned even though it was already so dark.

Therefore, she was in a particularly good mood. When she cooked at night, she added a little more oil to the dishes. The whole family enjoyed a good dinner.

However, just as she was about to lie down, she heard waves of barking dogs outside, as if they had seen something dangerous.

“Old Man, Old Man, get up. Listen to what’s going on outside. There are so many dogs barking?” Li Cuihua shook Lin Laosan, who was about to fall asleep next to her.

Lin Laosan rolled over in frustration and muttered, “They must have sensed some dangerous beasts coming from the mountain. Anyway, it’s none of my business! Don’t disturb me!” After saying that, he fell asleep.

Dangerous beasts coming to the village! Li Cuihua was shocked. Indeed, this had happened several times in the past.

Whenever a dangerous beast approached the village, the dogs would start barking loudly. Then, the whole village would grab their hoes and poles to beat the beasts to death. Of course, Lin Dawei and Lin San, Lin Dawei’s father, would always lead the assault.

Li Cuihua thought for a moment. She put on a coat in the dark and walked to her big courtyard. She saw that her sons and daughters-in-law had all woken up. In the courtyard, she saw people rushing past her place, holding hoes and spades through the crack in the wall.

Lin Sanniu grabbed a hoe in the courtyard and decided to follow the crowd. He was stopped by Li Cuihua.

“Ol’ Three, where are you going?”

Lin Sanniu answered with a little confusion, “Mother, all the villagers are swarming to someplace with hoes and poles. Aren’t we going to follow them?”

Li Cuihua said angrily, “What do you mean? Do you think you have extra lives to sacrifice to the angry beasts? Just let those stupid people go and die for us.”

Li Cuihua’s voice was not soft. Everyone who hurried past could hear her.

Therefore, some people frowned in dissatisfaction at Li Cuihua’s words.

Coincidentally, there was someone who was not on good terms with Lin Laosan’s family in the crowd. She was Liu Dongmei, the daughter-in-law of Lin Laosan’s biological younger brother, Lin Laoliu. She was furious. She stood outside and pointed at the gate of the Lin family’s courtyard, “Third sister-in-law, what do you mean by that? Do you mean your family’s lives are more precious than the rest of us?

“When wild beasts appear near the village, it is the village custom that all of us have to work together to kill them or chase them away. This is to protect the whole village. How come third sister-in-law’s family is now hiding at home like little cowards?”
