Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 886: Moral kidnap
Chapter 886: Moral kidnap
The mers of the Big River Village were furious, everyone knew that giving birth was a life and death process for the mers, if they were not careful then they would die during childbirth without getting a chance to see their child. They would treat their children as well as they could especially their daughters who were bound to grow up and inherit everything, how can their hearts not hurt when they saw that some people wanted to eat their children?
" You are shameless!"
" This is your retribution I am telling you, don't you dare to act all smart with us!"
" These human-eating beasts! They sure have a big face after creating such a huge chaos!"
When Yu Dong saw the anger of the villagers, she did not say anything and simply glanced at the people who were lying on the ground with painful expressions on their faces. The anger of her villagers was indeed right, if they were not lucky then they would have died while getting crushed under the snow which was why she did not say anything to stop them instead she turned to look at Yu Mai who lowered his head knowing full well that he made another mistake.
His sister asked him to stay in the bunker but he rushed out with others, he pursed his lips and then looked at his sister with an aggrieved look on his face, " Sister they were bullying you... they even tried to snatch little sister from Brother Hanjing, Mai protected."
Yu Dong's eyes flashed as she looked over at the villagers who were hiding behind her own and realised that some of them snuck out of the group and gone looking for those who were hiding in the bunker.
" Did they break the door?" She asked gently to which Yu Mai nodded heavily and then complained angrily while pointing at the women. " They broke the door, hurt Old Madam Wu, grandmother and grandmother Fang as well and then tried to snatch Big Brother Hanjing's daughter, he was hurt and bleeding which was why Mai got angry!"
When Yu Tong heard that Li Hanjing was hurt her eyes swooned as she turned on her heels and then rushed towards the bunker, the woman whose mers were pregnant also rushed after her. These people from the Big stone village, they surely have gone too far!
Yu Mai also thought so too, those bad people bullied Grandma Yu and Grandma Fang. They even made his sister bleed, so how can he ignore them?
He was very angry, so angry that he was fuming.
" Come out," Yu Dong patted Yu Mai on the forehead as she turned to look at the villagers from the Big Stone Village who were hiding in the corner. " There is no point in hiding like that."
The villagers who were hiding in the corner stepped out, they were the family members of those who were stampeded by the livestock just now. They were watching their wives and mothers getting hurt by the herd of animals and wanted to rush over but they did not dare to do so.
Now that they saw that the herd of animals was standing calmly on the side they couldn't wait to rush over their wives and mothers.
" Mother!"
" Wife!"
A young mer and woman wanted to rush towards the fallen villagers of the Big Stone village but they were stopped by the older woman who was walking in front with three other elderlies walking behind her.
" Stop what are you running amok for ?" The woman turned to look at the mer just in time for someone to drag him back into the group. Once the mer was gone, the woman who was walking in front cupped her hands and then bowed, " We are ashamed of their actions, please let them go. I, the elder of Big Stone Village am here to apologise to you."
" They did not listen to our words and walked on the wrong path but as elders, we cannot watch them die, please forgive us!" The elder women on each side of the woman who just spoke bowed their heads as they also pleaded for leniency.
Who wanted to see their kids die but did they have a choice?
" Our village is surrounded by large mountainous walls who does not know that? After the floor, half of the village was wiped clean and nothing was left behind. We have nothing in our hands to buy grains and even if we did the path to the town is blocked now, if one wants to go to the town then they will have to dig through the snow for three hours, we haven't eaten anything for months how can we survive? How can we dig through the snow for months?"
" We are forced to the point where we have no other choice what can we do? Who would like to kill children and eat them? Do you think that we were born ruthless? The situation made us like this!"
An old mer was supported by a young one as he walked forward and knelt in front of Yu Dong and the rest as he said in a quivering voice, " My daughter did not wish to harm the children but she has already lost her husband and her sons, she only did this because she wanted to keep her daughter alive. She did not touch a child but she was forced to give many up. I can assure you that my daughter is not a murderer, she did not participate in cannibalism…nor did she harm a child before but this time she was forced by the circumstances if not she would not have made a move such as this one. She only did this for our family, if you wish I will hand my life over in exchange just let her go, please."
When the villagers of the Big River Village saw this they did not know how to deal with this situation anymore.
If they let them go just like this, does that not mean that they were willing to forgive them but who would be willing to forgive someone for something like this? They did not wish to do so!
They could not just let them go after all these people were indeed here to cause trouble what was more, if their luck was any worse they might have died but they managed to stay alive because they were being supported by the heavens!
Just because they were willing to lower their heads do they have to forgive them?
Seeing that the people of the Big River Village were hesitating after the old mer knelt, the rest followed suit as they bent their knees and then started apologizing to Yu Dong and the village head.
" Miss Yu, what should we do now?" Village head Gu looked at Yu Dong who was nursing her head and then asked in a low voice. What were they supposed to do now?
Yu Dong's brows twitched as she looked at the villagers who were kneeling in front of her and was furious, she was well aware of the fact that these people were trying to morally kidnap them and nothing else.
She felt a headache coming as she did not help the old mer who was kneeling in front of her and then said, " You all think that just an apology will suffice after your village tried to bury us all in the snow?"
Though the villagers were muddleheaded, she was not. How can she let them off without punishing them? Their heads were lowered which caused their dignity to be threatened but a while ago wasn't the lives of the villagers of her village at stake as well?
" We had no choice," the elder of Big Stone Village raised her head and then looked at Yu Dong who was looking at them without an ounce of sympathy. Her heart shivered when she met those dark eyes but Elder Pei still lowered her head and continued, " I am willing to do anything as long as you let them go with us. We will even work for you for free if that is what you want, our village has no savings and we cannot pay compensation to you but if you want to pursue this matter then this is the only thing that we can do."
However as soon as Elder Pei finished speaking, her words were at once contradicted by the villagers who were behind her as they said, " But our wives are hurt as well! Why should we work for them for free?"
"That's right they were the ones who almost killed our wives and now you are telling us that we have to even compensate them, elder? This will not do!"
One of the mer who was standing on the back cried as he said, " My wife's hand is twisted and so is her waist, I am afraid that without the help of a doctor, she will stay in bed for a long time! Are you not asking me to die, elder Pei?"
