Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Chapter 522 Protecting Weaknesses

"Yes, Xiaocao, let us go quickly. I am your uncle. I have raised you for so many years. Even if you are angry, you can't tie us up and bring us to this mountain valley in the middle of the night. What do you want to do?"

Yes, they raised me for many years... As my uncle and his wife cursed, Xiaocao's chest was dry and wailing, and her mouth was full of bitterness.

When she had a father and a mother, she was the apple of her eye. But after her father died and her mother left, she became lonely and dependent on others, living a humble life.

Xiao Cao opened her mouth, wanting to ask them if they had ever really considered her a family member. But before she could say anything, Lin Xiaoyue reached out to stop her, jumped into the pit, and squatted in front of the two of them.

"You know who I am, right? Xiaocao is mine, and also my family. Have you thought about the consequences if you dare to touch my family?" Lin Xiaoyue's expression was calm, with a slight smile on her lips, but the words that came out of her mouth were as chilling as a poisonous snake.

Although they were facing only a young girl who had just come of age, the two men inexplicably felt a terrifying and enormous pressure from her.

"No, no, not Princess, you misunderstood, we didn't mean to harm her."

"Yes, we are Xiaocao's only relatives in this world. How could we harm her? We just want to give her a good marriage."

Lin Xiaoyue sneered, "Such a good marriage. Why don't you save it for your own daughter? Instead, I think of the little grass that used to be treated like a slave in your house and was trampled under your feet?"

"No, no, Princess, look, it's not that Mr. Xie thinks my daughter is ugly and doesn't like her, so he chose our little girl, right?"

"Yes... yes, Xiaocao is also lucky. The young master of the Xie family was attracted by Xiaocao's tenderness like a flower bud, and fell in love with her at first sight... He was obsessed with her. My husband and I also thought that Xiaocao could find such a good husband, so we decided to match them up."

The Chen couple still had hope, thinking that the princess was just asking casually and had no idea of ​​the real situation, so they continued to lie with their eyes open and tried to make up an excuse.

"Oh, that's kind."

Lin Xiaoyue looked at them meaningfully, then quickly grabbed their arms and twisted them.

With a crisp "crack" sound, two extremely shrill screams were heard from the forest.

The Chen couple cried bitterly and screamed as they held the arm that was drooping in a twisted posture. The huge fear and overwhelming pain kept hitting their brains, pulling them back from the brink of fainting to the hellish reality before their eyes.

Lin Xiaoyue admired them as their flesh was pierced. The protruding elbows cut through the sleeves, and blood quickly spread over the body, flowing down stickily.

"Yes... I'm sorry, Princess. We didn't mean to do that. We know we were wrong... We won't dare to do it again. Please let us go... Please."

"Yes, we know we were wrong, and we won't dare to do it again. Please, Princess, let us go because we have raised Xiaocao for so many years."

Lin Xiaoyue was very restrained in her actions, but she made Chen's uncle and his wife deeply experience the fear of being on the verge of death.

The two frightened men knew that if they could not obtain the forgiveness of this seemingly harmless and well-known little girl in front of them, they would probably have to die here tonight.

Even though they were trembling with pain, the Chen couple gritted their teeth and knelt on the ground, their foreheads pressed against the ground, and their other intact but bloody hands desperately grabbed Lin Xiaoyue's trouser legs, crying and begging, "Princess, please be magnanimous, please let us go."

"Yes, Princess, we know we were wrong. We will never disturb Xiaocao's life again. Please treat us as shits and let us go. Also..., we will return all the property that Xiaocao's parents left to her in the past."

"Please, Princess, let us go, let us go."

Lin Xiaoyue looked down at the Chen couple who were lying on the ground with tears and snot all over their faces. They looked really pitiful, but Lin Xiaoyue obviously didn't intend to let them go.

"Are you scared now? Why didn't you think about the fact that Xiaocao is your blood relative? You hurt him and schemed against her time and time again. Do you really think I'm such a good-tempered person? I'd let you go just because you begged for mercy? It's not that easy."

Lin Xiaoyue's voice was cold, but it contained a concern that could not be ignored.

The little grass above was looking at her supporting her, covering her mouth with her hands, already in tears and sobbing.

As for the three scouts who were ordered by the princess not to interfere, although they felt that the princess's punishment of the two families today was indeed inappropriate, it did not mean that the princess was cruel and ruthless, but that the princess should not be contaminated with the blood of such a vicious person.

Seeing that the princess was determined to kill the couple on the spot, the Chen couple turned to Xiaocao for help.

"Xiao Cao, Xiao Cao, please beg the princess to let us go. Uncle knows he was wrong, really, I really know he was wrong. Everything... was instigated by this woman. It was... it was this bitch who said that you have no parents and no one to support you. It would be better for an orphan to marry an outsider with so much money than for your family to benefit from it. Xiao Cao, uncle knows he was wrong, please let him go. Uncle will never dare to do it again."

"Chen Jinbiao, you bitch, what did you say? It's obvious that you coveted the rich fortune of my second brother's family, but now you put all the blame on me. You have no conscience, Chen Jinbiao, you will not die well."

"How can I be so heartless? You dare to say that you didn't spend that money, that you didn't use it? Also, you dare to say that you didn't deliberately drive Xiaocao to sleep in the pigsty, didn't feed her enough, and made her do all the housework for the whole family. You tortured and abused her in various ways all day long."

"So what if I did all this? Can't you see? If you really loved Xiaocao, how could you watch her go hungry and have no clothes, and let us mother and son bully and abuse her."

At the critical moment of life and death, Xiaocao's uncle decisively pushed all the responsibilities onto his aunt. His aunt cursed herself in her heart for being blind to such a selfish idiot who shirked responsibility when something happened and pushed his wife out to stop him, saying that she was worse than an animal.

Uncle Chen and his wife started to fight each other in front of everyone, and there was no longer the tacit understanding as before that they would work together to seize Xiaocao's family's property.
