Splendid Twins

The man couldn't dodge and was hit several times. He took the opportunity to grab the willow branch and secretly exerted force with his hands, but Si Yao was prepared and let go immediately. Before the man could rejoice, a dagger was pressed three inches below his navel!

The man was so scared that he dared not move a muscle. His eyes were filled with fear. She was so fast!

Also, where did she get the dagger?

"Wait a minute, I have something to say."

The man spoke quickly, saying that Guanyuan acupoint was extremely important to those who practiced martial arts. The circulation of Qi and blood was the basis for the operation of internal strength. If this point was damaged, then he would never be able to practice martial arts again in this life!

Si Yao ignored him and pressed down hard, causing the man to cry out in pain:

"I was wrong, girl. Let's talk it over. I'll tell you everything..."

Si Yao raised the corner of his mouth, the dagger pierced into his flesh, and blood instantly stained his clothes.

"Girl, I am so wrong, please show mercy... don't kill me..."

The man begged for mercy in so much pain, and the other men lying on the ground were also powerless. The villagers who were watching were all stunned by Si Yao's move, and for a moment, no one dared to speak.

"Say now? It's too late!"

Si Yao didn't give the man a chance to speak, and thrust the dagger in with a cold tone:

"If you dare to come and provoke me, you will have to pay the price!"

The man was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. There was a flash of regret in his eyes. He shouldn't have taken this job.

Wang Dahu was afraid that the villagers would be wary of Si Yao in the future, so he deliberately asked loudly:

"Tell me, are you thinking about the recipes of our Sijia Village, so you found an excuse to come to our door?"

One of the men lying on the ground raised his hand and shook it. His lower jaw had been removed by Wang Dahu and saliva was flowing down his chin.

A hint of evil interest flashed in Wang Dahu's eyes. He picked up a shoe that someone had dropped and stuffed it into the man's mouth. Because his back was facing the gate, the villagers outside could only hear the man's "wuuuu" sound. They actually thought that these people were thinking about the recipe, and they all quit instantly!

"Village head, these robbers should be sent to see the county magistrate."

"How dare you covet our Sijia Village's things? You are so bold..."

"It's so hateful! If it weren't for Yao Yatou and Da Huzi's abilities, our hard-earned livelihood would have been taken away by others..."

"Get them out! Get them out!"

"Village Chief, please say something..."

The five grown men had completely aroused the public's indignation at this time. They all looked pale and ashen. They had really started off badly and were speechless.

The village chief raised his hand to stop the villagers, his tone serious:

"We don't want things that are not ours, but no one can take away things from Sijia Village. The recipe belongs to Yao girl. You two should be quiet for a moment and listen to what Yao girl has to say."

Si Yao looked up at the men lying on the ground in all directions, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and she said in a teasing tone:

"Do you want free labor?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, Wang Dahu's face lit up:

"Yes, of course. Listen to me. If these people dare to come once, they will come again. It is better to keep them all in our village to do hard labor and serve as a warning to those people outside who have evil intentions."

As soon as this was said, the villagers were delighted and scrambled to grab it:

"Let them go to my house first. I have two acres of land at the foot of the mountain that has not been plowed yet. It's a good opportunity to test their abilities."

"No, let's go to my house first. I've started digging the foundation to build a house these two days, and I'm in need of help..."

"My family has no one to take care of my paralyzed mother..."

…………

Si Yao was annoyed by the noise and cleared her throat:

"Let them settle down first and then work. We in Sijia Village must work together, be united and friendly internally, and have a consistent attitude toward the outside world. No one should think of hurting us."

"Yao girl is right. All the people in our village have the same thoughts and efforts. This man was subdued by Yao girl. First of all, he needs to go to the mountain to help Yao girl plant trees. The rest can wait."

The village chief made the final conclusion and said that Yao girl was a good person.

"Here, feed them."

Si Yao pretended to take out five black pills from her pocket and handed them to Wang Dahu. The mute medicine automatically exchanged in the space must be of the highest quality.

Several men dodged with expressions of resistance, and in the end no one was left behind. The pills had no taste, and several men swallowed them with increasing panic in their hearts...

The leading man knelt on the ground, holding his waist and abdomen with one hand, his brows furrowed, his face pale, blood flowing from his fingers to the ground, drop by drop. Si Yao bent down slightly and whispered:

"I know it even if you don't tell me. It's the eldest daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, Zhou Wan, right?"

The man looked up suddenly, as if to ask how did you know. Si Yao snorted coldly:

"It's just a small trick that can't be put on the table."

The evening breeze blew, bringing with it a sense of unrest.

At this time, Zhou Wan was in the courtyard of Madam Wei, the third room. The two of them were cuddling together like real mother and daughter. Madam Wei reached out and tucked the hair around Zhou Wan's ears behind hers, and said in a friendly tone:

"How could such a good girl like Wanwan be bullied by that cuckoo in the magpie's nest?"

"You don't know, Aunt San, when she left, she took away all the valuables in the storeroom. I mentioned it, but my mother didn't believe it."

Zhou Wan complained, with a hint of viciousness in her eyes. If Si Yao dared to take something that belonged to her, he would have to bear her revenge...

When Mrs. Wei heard this, sarcasm flashed in her eyes. What a shallow-sighted person! No matter how dignified and virtuous Zhang Jinrong was, her biological daughter was ruined. All her hard work and planning back then were in vain!

"She actually did this? She is really shameless."

Madam Wei said this deliberately in order to win over Zhou Wan. Her next plan still depends on this little idiot...

Everyone in this mansion knew that Zhou Yao was alone when she returned to the countryside, with only a housekeeper who gave her a tattered bundle. The little fool actually asked about it. It turned out that no matter how strong the parents are, it is all in vain if the children don't live up to expectations!

"I don't really need those things, but His Highness likes me to wear more colorful clothes, so I asked the old people in the mansion, and they said there are many treasures in the storehouse..."

Zhou Wan wanted to explain that she had been trying her best to please her Third Aunt these days, for fear that some unpleasant words would reach the ears of the Imperial Concubine and create a rift between her and His Highness.

"Women dress to please themselves. Since Your Highness likes good colors, Third Aunt has a box of purple pearls. Ask someone to bring it back to you."

"Third Aunt is very kind. Wanwan will definitely repay you in the future."

Zhou Wan stood up and bowed respectfully to Mrs. Wei. The girl had rosy cheeks, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and looked gentle and lovely.

But Mrs. Wei was a little unhappy. Through the girl in front of her, she saw the young wife of the Duke, who pretended to be weak and reserved, but was actually very scheming.

"Aunt San is a little tired..."

"Then Wanwan will go back first and come to accompany you tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll let the maid take you there."

After Zhou Wan left, Madam Wei lost her previous kindness and looked terribly gloomy. She then called someone into the inner room to help her comb her hair and dress up again, and led her personal maid to the Third Master's room.
