Chapter 195 Both sides suffer losses
"Kill him?" Zhang Dahu hesitated.
The widow glanced at him sideways. "What, you won't agree? You can't bear to part with him?"
Zhang Dahu hurriedly said, "How could that be? How could that be? I'm already sick of this woman. I feel disgusted even sleeping in the same bed with her. Just looking at her makes me want to vomit. According to your suggestion, when she comes back, we'll tie her up and throw her into the river at night, saying she accidentally fell in."
Whether it was the word "disgusting" or the news that they were going to beat her to death, the taut string in Jin Cuihua's mind snapped with a bang.
Her mind went blank, her eyes were bloodshot, and she instinctively picked up the sickle from the ground, pushed open the door, and went inside.
"Ah, you dead woman, who allowed you to come in? What are you doing? Ah!" Before the widow could finish her sentence, her voice changed into a short, painful scream. But it was too late. A sickle, still covered in dirt, plunged its sharp blade straight into the woman's slightly protruding belly. Blood flowed out, and the widow's eyes were open, blood gushing from her mouth. Her body twitched a few times, and she quickly went still.
"No, Cuihua," Zhang Dahu's voice was weak.
Although he was abusive, he didn't have much guts. Looking at the bloody scene before him, the usually domineering man lay on the bed like a limp shrimp, unable to move, with yellow urine flowing from his body, emitting a foul odor.
Jin Cuihua stared blankly at his legs. Zhang Dahu scrambled to get out, but Jin Cuihua was faster. She swiftly and cleanly chopped down with her sickle. Instantly, Zhang Dahu's lower body was soaked in blood. He screamed, "Ahhh, you crazy woman!"
Jin Cuihua grinned, her eyes still vacant, staring blankly into the distance. Her neurotic smile became even more terrifying at that moment.
The screams instantly attracted the attention of nearby villagers. When they rushed over, they saw Jin Cuihua holding a sickle, her face and body splattered with blood, while the woman on the bed, her belly and lower body soaked with blood, stared wide-eyed in death.
Zhang Dahu's crotch was a gruesome sight, with a strong stench of urine amidst the blood, sending chills down everyone's spines.
Jin Cuihua also heard the commotion. She tilted her head and looked outside expressionlessly. Her body and face were covered in splattered blood, which made her empty eyes look even more lifeless. Everyone gasped and unconsciously took a few steps back.
However, Jin Cuihua did not walk towards them. She muttered something softly. While everyone hesitated and dared not step forward, she placed the sickle against her own neck and, without the slightest hesitation, slashed it hard. Blood splattered out, and she fell heavily backward.
Jin Cuihua also died, but her eyes never closed.
After Wang Keying finished speaking, she sighed, "Neither of the two women survived, and with the child in their wombs, there were three lives lost in total. However, Zhang Dahu was sent to the hospital and his life was saved, but he is now crippled, mentally unstable, and unable to take care of himself. He will also be unable to have sex in the future and will never be able to use that harmful thing to harm women again."
After hearing this, Shu Yun sighed, took a sip of hot tea, and realized that her hands and feet were already ice-cold.
The woman who was still alive in my memory is now dead. Although I had a rather unpleasant falling out with Jin Cuihua, knowing that she died this way still makes me feel somewhat sad.
Wang Keying patted Shu Yun's hand and comforted her, "This is a relief for her. Otherwise, what would she have gained by enduring such humiliation her whole life? I heard that during the autopsy, her whole body was covered in bruises, not a single piece of good flesh. It's good that she's free now. I hope she can be reborn into a better family in the next life and not be so foolish again."
Shu Yun nodded, still deeply immersed in the matter and unable to come back to her senses for a long time. The two sat in silence for a while, until little Gu Xi ran to Shu Yun's feet and brought her back to her senses.
"Mommy, my little dinosaur pajamas." Gu Xi tugged at Shu Yun's pant leg and whispered in Shu Yun's ear.
Shu Yun finally smiled, "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten."
Wang Keying, holding her daughter, cast a questioning glance at her.
Shu Yun: "Sister Keying, there's something else I need to ask you. Even if you hadn't come today, I would have gone to find you anyway."
Wang Keying: "What is it?"
Shu Yun: "Sister Keying, can you make me three outfits? We'll keep the price the same as before, what do you think?"
Two years ago, Shi Yan moved away with her husband, and the lack of a good tailor in the courtyard was very inconvenient. By chance, Shu Yun learned that Wang Keying was quite skilled, and for the past two years, Shu Yun's family has outsourced all their clothing to Wang Keying. This has been convenient for Shu Yun and has also allowed Wang Keying to earn extra money, making both parties quite happy.
Having collaborated several times, Shu Yun has a good eye, and the styles that Wang Keying makes are all new and unique, looking beautiful and attractive on the body. This has indirectly brought Wang Keying many more customers, which is one of the reasons why the two have grown closer over the years.
Wang Keying joked that if things continued like this, she wouldn't need to be a teacher anymore; she could just switch careers and become a tailor.
Wang Keying asked curiously, "Is there another new style?"
Shu Yun took out the design drawings. "Now that the weather is getting cooler, I want to make a few sets of fleece-lined pajamas. It'll be perfect for the three of us to each have one set, so we'll all be neat and tidy."
Wang Keying looked at the drawings and exclaimed, "Wow, this is a little dinosaur! It even has a hat and a tail!" The design looked very novel, and Wang Keying thought that no child could resist it.
Shu Yun smiled and nodded, "I saw it in the picture book I bought for him. The little guy likes it, so I thought I'd make a few outfits for him. You can provide the fabric, and I'll calculate the cost together later."
Wang Keying nodded, "Okay."
Seeing her daughter looking on longingly, Wang Keying softened and asked Shu Yun, "Shu Yun, do you think I can make a set for my little girl too?"
Shu Yun nodded, "Of course, if your little girl likes dinosaurs, you can make a dinosaur. If she likes cats or rabbits, you can make other things too. Do you want me to draw one for you?"
Wang Keying waved her hand, "No need, no need, I can do it."
Wang Keying and Shu Yun discussed the details of the pajamas for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, they prepared to leave with their daughter.
As she reached the door, the door opposite her opened just as she did. Wang Keying met Ding Hongmei's gaze from next door and couldn't help but shiver. She whispered to Shu Yun, "Xiao Yun, who is this person and what's going on? Every time I come here and run into her, she always looks at me with such a fierce expression, as if I owe her money and haven't paid it back. It's really creepy."
Shu Yun was also a little confused. She thought for a moment and guessed, "Maybe it's because we don't get along? So when you get close to me, you naturally displease her. But you shouldn't provoke her."
Wang Keying nodded, "I know, I haven't even spoken to her yet. I'll head back now, come visit me sometime."
