Why should we feed them? If they eat their fill, they will be focused on vicious thoughts. We should starve them so that they will not think about anything else.

“I’ve met people who don’t repay kindness, but I’ve never seen so many who don’t even realize the kindness shown to them. The Chief was so angry that he kept scolding them in front of me.”

The women around Aunt Ju kept quiet, and there was silence.

Meanwhile, Xue Ling could not sit still as she watched many animals brought up into the treehouse.

She came to Qian Jiyun’s side and tried to sow discord.

“Brother Yun, why did that woman take away all the prey you hunted? Is she starving us on purpose? She’s too vicious!”

She had quarreled with the other women to feel better. However, now that she has thought it through, she realized there was no need to bicker with them and embarrass herself.

The truly detestable person was An Jiuyue, who had been pestering Brother Yun.

Going into the mountains to find food? She was definitely trying to seize the opportunity to get closer to Brother Yun! My Brother Yun is so kind—he would definitely accompany her since she was going alone!

Xue Ling understood now. That woman did it on purpose!

“Brother Yun, you hunted those animals. Why did you—”

“Xue Ling, is my name written on the animals?”

Qian Jiyun did not give Xue Ling a chance to finish her sentence. He shot her a cold glance and retorted.

“Uh—” Xue Ling was caught off guard and flushed red immediately.

Does this mean that An Jiuyue, that little b*tch, hunted everything?

How is that possible? If An Jiuyue is so capable, she wouldn’t have remained in this forest! She would have built a big house in the village.

However, she had to admit that the mountain was the most reliable place to live in in this godforsaken county.

Otherwise, people could be swept away by the flood in their sleep. They could even die! Everyone here had been suffering because of this.

“Didn’t you carry them back? Everyone saw you, Brother Yun.”

She would never admit that An Jiuyue had hunted them. She had to be sure that it was Qian Jiyun.

“Sister Xue Ling, my brother might have carried them back, but he might not have caught them. You’re thinking too much,” Qian Yiyun said to Xue Ling as she glanced at her brother.

In Qian Yiyun’s eyes, Xue Ling had become increasingly shameless. If it were not for the fact that she was the one who invited her, she would not have cared about her anymore.

“Yiyun, you…” Xue Ling was even angrier when she heard Qian Yiyun criticize her.

Was I wrong? I’m saying this for everyone’s good! There are so many preys, but An Jiuyue kept all of them. She should at least place a few downstairs for everyone to eat, right?

But everyone downstairs is just watching her silently! Don’t these poor bumpkins rush to snatch the meat whenever they see it?

She turned around and exhaled deeply.

She could not quarrel with Qian Jiyun and Qian Yiyun now. She had to pretend to be good and win back some of their favor.
