Chapter 141: Chapter 141. Hanging
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Aunt Qiu still wanted to persuade her daughter, but when she saw Qiu Yue staring at her coldly, she swallowed the words about to come out of her mouth. Qiu Yue was stuck at a dead end, so it was good to let her calm down.
Aunt Qiu walked out of the forest but didn’t dare to go far for fear that her daughter would be in danger. She just waited outside for Qiu Yue.
It was customary for her to take a long time to put on her underwear, but Aunt Qiu was worried when her daughter still hadn’t come out after waiting for half a cup of tea’s time.
“Qiu Yue, you’re not done yet?”
Aunt Qiu shouted her daughter’s name as she walked into the forest. As soon as she entered, she saw Qiu Yue standing on a piece of dead wood, putting the belt on her neck.
“Qiu Yue, come down. Don’t scare me. Yongkang, Yongkang.”
When Aunt Qiu saw that her daughter was about to commit suicide, she was so scared that her whole body went limp. She wanted to pull her daughter up, but her hands and feet were too weak. She could only call her son over to help.
…..
It was better if she didn’t shout. Once she called, Qiu Yue closed her eyes and put her neck into her belt. She kicked away the dead wood and hung in the air.
“Ah?”
Aunt Qiu’s heart ached when she saw her daughter being hung on the rope. Her vision went black, and she fell to the ground, unconscious.
When Qiu Yongkang heard his mother’s voice, he thought that Qiu Yue had also met with a thief. He immediately ran into the forest. Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi also ran after him.
When Qiu Yongkang ran into the forest, the tree trunk that Qiu Yue was hanging on broke. When she saw Qiu Yongkang coming, she got up again to grab the belt and continued hanging. She fell from the sky, her face red as she coughed.
“What are you doing?”
Qiu Yongkang snatched the belt away and slapped Qiu Yue across the face. Qiu Yue fell to the ground, her ears ringing and blood dripping from her mouth. She glared at Qiu Yongkang and said,
“Are you satisfied now?”
“Do you want to die?”
Qiu Yongkang glared at his sister, then picked up the broken branch and said in a cold voice,
“Do you want to die? Such a thin branch can’t withstand your weight. Let me help you.”
Qiu Yongkang threw the belt on a tree and tied it for Qiu Yue. He turned around and looked at her coldly. “Only a tree as thick as this can hang someone.”
Qiu Yue looked at her brother in disbelief.
“How can you be so vicious?”
“You don’t dare to die? This crying, making a scene, and hanging herself is the behavior of a shrew.”
Qiu Yongkang glared at his sister and threw the broken branch at Qiu Yue’s feet.
“Don’t play these little tricks anymore.”
Qiu Yue sat on the ground and looked up at her brother. Her tears flowed like a spring, and her eyes were filled with hatred.
“You can choose to marry someone, be a nun, or hang yourself up.”
Qiu Yongkang saw the hatred in his sister’s eyes and breathed deeply, cutting off all her thoughts.
“Grandpa, father, and mother are still alive. You have no right to control me.”
Qiu Yue glared at Qiu Yongkang. He wasn’t her brother; he was her enemy.
“Oh? Then I’ll get Grandpa to fix it for you.”
Qiu Yongkang looked at his unfamiliar little sister, feeling very sad. However, he thought that his little sister had already gone mad, and he needed a heavy hammer to make her give up.
“You? Why are you doing this to me? Why?”
Qiu Yue jumped up hysterically and beat her brother. It didn’t look like she was beating her brother, but like she was beating up an enemy.
Li Daniu and old seven were holding on to the unconscious Aunt Qiu and were in a dilemma. Looking at Qiu Yue, who attacked Qiu Yongkang like a madman, they felt she was a stranger.
The Qiu Yue, who was as gentle as water in the past, seemed fake!
Qiu Yongkang didn’t feel good about letting his sister hit him, but he had no choice. He couldn’t give his sister what she wanted, so he had to stop her from having more fantasies.
This was the best for her!
“Aiya, Qiu Yue.”
Aunt Qiu slowly woke up and cried out her daughter’s name. Qiu Yue, exhausted from beating Qiu Yongkang up, ran over to her mother and into her arms.
“Mother, I won’t marry anyone. I’ll stay by you and father’s side for the rest of my life.”
“No, you’re not getting married.”
Aunt Qiu looked at her daughter, who had been lost and found again, and hugged her tightly.
“Mother, I want to marry brother Shuisheng. If I don’t marry him, I’d rather die. Help me; brother Shuisheng will listen to you and Grandpa.”
However, Qiu Yue was insatiable and begged in Aunt Qiu’s arms.
Qiu Yongkang was afraid that his mother would agree to something Qiu Yue shouldn’t have, which would only make Qiu Yue even more obsessed. He walked over and handed the broken branch to his mother,
“Mother, do you think this branch can hang someone?”
Aunt Qiu looked at the branch that was not thicker than a finger, and her tears flowed down. She looked at Qiu Yue in disbelief and asked her bitterly,
“Qiu Yue, do you know that your mother was almost scared to death by you? You’re using your mother like this, you… You’ve gone too far.”
Qiu Yue’s eyes dodged momentarily, but she immediately returned to her pitiful look and insisted that she wanted to die.
“Mother, I don’t want to live anymore. I found a branch and hung it up but ignored the trunk’s thickness.”
“Fine, mother will accompany you if you want to die.”
Aunt Qiu wiped away her tears and stood up. She untied her belt and dragged her heavy feet into the woods. Qiu Yongkang stopped her.
“Mother, what are you doing?”
“I’ll go with her.”
Aunt Qiu looked at her son helplessly. Leaving her in the team would be a disaster sooner or later, but her mother couldn’t bear to kill her so that she would die with her! Who asked her not to teach her daughter well?
“Mother, why are you forcing me? I wouldn’t say I like Su Qing; it’s all her fault. Why isn’t she dead? Why didn’t she let the armored soldiers tear her into pieces?”
Seeing that her mother would rather hang herself than help her, Qiu Yue broke down and cursed Su Qing loudly.
“Li Daniu, seventh brother Jiang, hang Qiu Yue up. She will harm everyone sooner or later.”
Qiu Yongkang’s eyes flashed with anger. Since he couldn’t do it, he wanted Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi to do it.
“Yongkang, this … I can’t do this.”
Li Daniu didn’t expect Qiu Yongkang to ask him to kill Qiu Yue. He was so scared that he waved his hands and stuttered.
“I can’t either.”
Seventh brother Jiang also shook his head like a rattle. It was fine to kill the enemy, but how could he kill his people?
“I’ll do it.”
Zhong Yong’s loud voice rang out from outside the forest. A tall figure as prominent as a mountain walked in. He entered the forest and went to grab Qiu Yue. He did not hesitate at all. He grabbed her and pulled her into the belt on the tree trunk.
Qiu Yue was scared out of her wits. She struggled with all her might, but her little strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree against Zhong Yong. It was utterly useless.
Qiu Yongkang turned his face away. They were siblings, after all, and he couldn’t bear to see his sister die before him.
“Mother, mother, save me!”
Qiu Yue could feel the fear of death as she clutched onto the belt and pressed her head against Zhong Yong’s body. She was screaming for her mother to save her.
Qiu Yue scratched Zhong Yong’s arm with her sharp nails to survive, but it was useless. Zhong Yong seemed unafraid of pain as he pulled her into the rope with a dark expression..
