From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!-Chapter 1014 - 1010: Bita Bleeds (Third Update)

Old Mrs. Mu rushed out of the main house and stormed into the kitchen, grabbing a freshly sharpened kitchen knife. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

That was something Old Mrs. Mu had bought during the New Year, originally intended to ward off bad luck from the third branch.

Now she intended to use the knife to show Qin Guihua her might.

Holding the knife, her face cold as ice, Old Mrs. Mu charged out of the Old Mu Family’s house.

Mrs. Lin, seeing Old Mrs. Mu, deliberately shouted loudly, "Oh no, Father, Mother has taken a knife and is heading for Da Li’s mother.

She might kill Da Li’s mother..."

Hearing this, Mr. Mu panicked and said, "What are you all standing around for? Go stop her quickly! If someone dies, your elder brother will be finished! Your mother too."

Everyone began running in the direction Old Mrs. Mu had gone.

Mrs. Lin herself, a bit disheveled, also wanted to follow and watch the commotion, but Mr. Mu stopped her.

Mr. Mu called for Huang Bita to go and hold her back.

"Grandpa, I haven’t finished washing the clothes yet."

In the courtyard, Huang Bita, who had just washed a basin of clothes, was a bit troubled.

These were her last days working in the Old Mu Family, and once the pigsty was built, she could move with her husband to live in another village.

However, precisely because of this, Mrs. Lin’s demands on her had become increasingly harsh. Every day she had to finish washing clothes by a specific hour, or else she wouldn’t be allowed to go to Tie Dao Village.

"What washing, a life is on the line! Go help your grandmother quickly!"

Mr. Mu kicked over the wooden bucket beside Huang Bita.

The bucket toppled over from the impact, the clothes scattered on the ground, falling into the dirty mud.

Huang Bita was instantly heartbroken.

Her entire morning’s effort had been wasted, and she would be scolded by her mother later.

Before Huang Bita could feel sorrow for long, Mr. Mu urged her to head for the Sun family.

Mr. Mu, still vigorous, ran with a spring in his step.

He was in front, and Huang Bita struggled to keep up behind him.

Reaching the Sun family wasn’t easy, and by that time, Old Mrs. Mu and Da Li’s mother were already fighting.

One held a knife, the other a slop bucket, going back and forth.

The knife slammed into the slop bucket, instantly creating several cracks.

Da Li’s mother was clearly on the verge of collapsing, and Da Li and his father weren’t home.

So no one could help Da Li’s mother.

Old Mrs. Mu was beyond reasoning, swinging the knife with all her might.

"She’s gone mad, mad, this woman is mad..." Da Li’s mother shouted.

"I’ll kill you, kill you..." Old Mrs. Mu screamed.

At this point, Old Mrs. Mu couldn’t hear anyone’s words. No matter how Mr. Mu shouted from outside, she wouldn’t stop.

With the final swing, Old Mrs. Mu split Da Li’s mother’s slop bucket in half.

Da Li’s mother no longer had anything to defend herself with; the knife descended again and again.

Several times, she narrowly dodged, and this left Da Li’s mother nearly scared to death.

The people present were all similarly stunned with fear.

Everyone knew Old Mrs. Mu was fierce, but no one knew she could be this fierce, attacking like this in broad daylight.

"What are you all standing around for? Hurry and grab your mother’s knife! If we’re too late, someone will die!" Mr. Mu shouted at Mu Danian and Mu Dajiang.

The two men were terrified.

Mrs. Lin retreated continuously, afraid of getting involved.

Even Mr. Mu dared not go forward; he shouted at Mrs. Liu, "Xiaxia’s mother, you go, you go..."

Mrs. Liu shook her head too, "Father, I’m scared..."

At this moment, Mr. Mu, seemingly at a loss, spotted Huang Bita and said to her, "Bita, go grab your grandmother’s knife, don’t let her do something foolish and harm your uncle!"

At this moment, Mu Danian pushed Huang Bita forward.

With a heavy shove, Huang Bita was knocked right in front of Old Mrs. Mu, just as Old Mrs. Mu swung the knife at Da Li’s mother.

The sharp kitchen knife arced through the air, finally landing on Huang Bita’s back.

Screech~

A gash opened on Huang Bita’s back, the blood immediately gushing out, the bright red blood dripping onto the ground in the Sun family’s courtyard, making those who saw it anxious and alarmed.

Old Mrs. Mu seemed to be frightened by the scene, losing strength in her hands,

The knife clattered to the ground.

Huang Bita’s face turned pale from the pain, her whole body in a daze, blood flowing more and more from her back, gradually leaving her weak, and she knelt to the ground...

"Oh heavens, there’s been a murder..."

Someone shouted, and the Old Mu family finally reacted, rushing out of the courtyard.

Mr. Mu was also stunned, his whole demeanor showing a collapse.

He couldn’t even believe that his wife had just committed murder!

"Save her, Father, save her..." Mrs. Liu shouted at the top of her lungs.

At this moment, Sun Dali and his father returned from the fields, shocked at the sight of the chaotic courtyard.

Especially with Huang Bita lying in a pool of blood.

"Oh heavens, what happened here?" Sun Dali’s father exclaimed.

Just then, Da Li’s mother was under Huang Bita, trembling all over.

Under her, a wet patch marked the ground, not from blood, but because she’d wet herself in fear.

Hearing her husband’s voice, she finally dared to shout, "Murder, Old Mu’s wife has committed murder..."

Mr. Mu dared not approach; he wanted Mu Danian to fetch a doctor, but Mu Danian was nowhere to be seen.

Mu Danian, who had pushed her, feared Huang Bita might die, fearing trouble for himself, had fled with Chen Hong.

Along with them was Mrs. Lin, also afraid of getting into trouble.

"Old Fourth, call for a doctor, call for a doctor..." Mr. Mu said.

Mu Dajiang rushed out, and at the same time, Mrs. Liu said to Sun Dali, "Da Li, help me go to Tie Dao Village to call Da Lang, tell him Bita is hurt."

"Father, we need to find something to stop Bita’s bleeding, or she’ll die."

Mrs. Liu, timid her whole life, now found the courage to give orders to Mr. Mu.

Mr. Mu, in a daze, entered the Sun family house, grabbing a handful of ash from their stove and rushing out.

The villagers often used this method, stove ash to stop bleeding.

He was so out of it, that he didn’t even notice the embers mixed within the ash.

At lunchtime, even though Da Li’s mother cooked earlier than most, the embers hadn’t fully extinguished, still hidden in the ash, only visible when stirred.

The temperature within the stove ash was still quite high.

Mr. Mu raised the shovel, about to pour the stove ash onto Huang Bita’s back.

Mrs. Liu accidentally saw the embers and shouted, "Father, don’t..."
