Chapter 316 Galloping Wild Horse
In this small piece of land, who dares to defy my will? Even the pomegranate can't escape from my grasp; it's just my plaything. Thinking of this, Luo Jing'an's lips curled up into an evil smile.
When I get her back, I'll make her kneel before me and beg for mercy every day, letting her know the consequences of disobeying me. His fists clenched unconsciously, as if he had already seen the scene of Shi Liu bullying her down. I want to let her know how foolish it is to go against me. I'll see how arrogant she can be then, and she'll have to let me control her.
Luo Jing'an's heart was filled with twisted desires and the pleasure of revenge.
Luo Jing'an's face was gloomy, his eyes flashing with a sinister light. He fiercely ordered his lawyer, "Go, prepare my men and horses! In three days, this county magistrate will personally go to Futian Village and tame that pomegranate!"
"I just don't believe a little village girl can turn the world upside down!" Luo Jing'an said through gritted teeth, "This time, I'm going to let her know how powerful I am and make her obey me obediently."
Luo Jing'an's face seemed distorted by anger, and his tone was full of arrogance.
He was deeply addicted to the feeling of being beaten by her. Every slap on his body seemed to carry a strange magic that made him unable to stop. He closed his eyes, recalling the intense scene, and an obsessive expression appeared on his face.
He liked the way she got madly jealous of him, her eyes bulging with anger and her teeth gnashing, which seemed to set his heart on fire.
The pomegranate is like a wild horse, full of unruly energy and vitality, difficult to control, yet possessing a fatal attraction. Luo Jing'an gazed into the distance, as if he saw the galloping wild horse.
And this little wild horse will be tamed by me, and finally it will snuggle up to me obediently and obey all my commands.
He fantasized about her gentle appearance and imagined that she would obey him in everything, his heart full of expectations and desire to conquer her.
"Master, you must get things done for me. If anything goes wrong, I will hold you accountable!" Luo Jing'an glared at the master fiercely, and that look seemed to be able to pierce through people.
"Remember, bring more people with you. I'm going to let everyone in Futian Village know the consequences of defying me!" Luo Jing'an waved his arms and roared, "I want that pomegranate to be mine, at my mercy! Wow... ha... ha ha!"
……
The villagers, all in high spirits, rushed up the mountain to chop down trees. With sharp axes in hand, they chopped down the trees with all their might, the "crackling" sound echoing through the forest. After felling the trees, everyone worked together to carry them down the mountain.
Everyone worked day and night to build the wooden gate at the village entrance. No one complained of being tired, and no one slacked off. Those with daughters worked even harder, their eyes filled with worry.
"That bastard official fell in love with pomegranates today, but who knows if he will fall in love with my daughter tomorrow!" An old man with a haggard face said angrily while sawing wood vigorously.
"That's right, we can't let that corrupt official succeed, we must protect the village!" The young man next to him responded, smashing the hammer in his hand even harder.
Everyone worked faster, as if they were racing against time to repair the village gate as soon as possible.
Yang's mother and the women in the village were also busy. They all carried hoes and walked towards the village entrance with firm steps, preparing to dig a river to protect the village.
The children who used to play there now wisely took their small shovels and joined the team digging the river.
Everyone knows that the situation is urgent and we must do our best to defend the village.
As Tian Guilan dug, she kept complaining, "Whose idea was this? That's the moat in Beijing, and there's river water in their ditch. What's in our ditch?"
Tian Guilan frowned, muttered constantly, and swung the hoe in her hand intermittently.
"Stop nagging and get back to work!" Aunt Li glared at her. "What's the point of complaining now? As long as we can protect our village and our families, that's all that matters!"
Tian Guilan curled her lips, and although she stopped talking, there was still a look of dissatisfaction on her face.
Grandma Zhang walked over tremblingly with a cane and glanced at Tian Guilan.
"The idea of digging a moat to protect the village was proposed by Xiuying and me." Grandma Zhang's voice was a little hoarse, but she was full of energy. "The moat can prevent a surprise attack from the enemy and buy us time to respond."
"It's too late to bring in water now, so we can just sharpen some bamboo and put it in the ditch." Grandma Zhang looked at everyone with a sharp gaze, "This way, we can give those who dare to invade a hard time."
Tian Guilan was dissatisfied and threw her hoe to the ground, saying angrily, "The county magistrate is interested in Shi Liu. Why not let Shi Liu go and enjoy the good life with the county magistrate? Why go to so much trouble to dig this useless river to protect the village? It's making us exhausted."
After hearing this, Mrs. Sun laughed and joked, "What if the county magistrate gets tired of Shi Liu and falls in love with you?"
Mrs. Sun covered her mouth with her hands and laughed so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits.
When Tian Guilan heard this, her face immediately turned red all the way to her neck. She scolded him, "Oh, Mrs. Sun, you just like to make fun of me. I'm already middle-aged, how can I still be so charming? If someone really takes a fancy to me, wouldn't that be a joke?"
"Hahaha, what you said is true. Our Miss Tian still has her charm!" Mrs. Sun laughed even louder, and the women around her also laughed.
Tian Guilan blushed and picked up the hoe again, muttering, "Stop teasing me and get back to work!"
Although she said so, the smile on Tian Guilan's face revealed that she was not really angry. If the county magistrate really took a fancy to her, she would crawl over to him even if she could, instead of being like Shi Liu, who was ungrateful and caused trouble for everyone.
In the village, Xiuying's older daughters, Taohua, Shiliu and Guihua, as well as Awang and Afan, were enthusiastically teaching the boys and girls in the village how to use bows and crossbows.
Taohua looked focused, holding a crossbow, and patiently explained: "Look everyone, when holding a crossbow, your hands must be steady and your eyes must be aimed at the target."
Shi Liu demonstrated the movements to everyone. She was very agile, pulling the string and releasing the arrow in one smooth motion, which amazed everyone.
Guihua was not idle either. She moved among the crowd, correcting the postures of the boys and girls hand in hand.
Awang and Afan stood a little further away, teaching more advanced techniques and experiences to the children who had already mastered the basic skills.
"Don't be anxious, take your time, and you will master it after practicing a few times." Awang encouraged everyone loudly.
The fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh brothers were busy moving among the crowd, cutting bamboo with the elderly and children in the village.
While Lao Wu was expertly shaving bamboo, he loudly reminded everyone to be careful: "Everyone, be careful and don't hurt yourself!"
