Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 568: They deserved it.

" Why did she call us here, the village head I mean?"      

" Don't tell me she was serious when she said that we would have to start hunting for our meals, is she asking us to hunt for wild animals?" said a woman and the others also seemed to be agreeing with her. After all, when the village head said that she will be taking them to the forest to hunt for food, she looked rather serious.     

The women all thought that the village head was just trying to punish her which was why she was calling them so when all of them smelled the scent rotting corpse they all were stunned, many women gagged and then started to heave harshly as they all turned to look at Madam Qui who was already walking over the cliff with her mouth covered, seeing her like this the women all understood that Madam Qui knew something that they didn't.      

  " Madam Qui what is going on——AHHHHHHH!" A woman tried to ask what was happening but then her gaze fell on the pile of corpses of the mers and she stumbled behind before falling on her bottom as she looked at the number of corpses that were lying in front of her. " What...WHAT IS THIS? WHAT IS GOING ON!?"     

Just like the woman who fell on the ground the other women too rushed to get away from the pile, they all looked at the mers who were lying dead and decaying on the ground and gagged at the smell and the sight of it, there were some women who were strong-hearted but they too almost fainted at the sight when they saw the decaying corpses of the mers.      

" What in the world—-"     

"How did this happen?"      

The women all looked stunned as they stared at the horrifying sight in front of them and then turned to look at Madam Qui who was walking to the other side of the trail on which they were walking till now. The women didn't want to stay behind with the corpses either, so they all rushed to chase after her, even those who recognised the bodies of the mers as their brothers, sons and husbands didn't dare to stay behind.      

Whatever the bodies were already destroyed what was the point of rushing to take care of them?     

With that thought in their heads, they decide to ignore the entire thing and ran after Madam Qui.      

When Yu Dong heard the sound of footsteps coming from the side of the forest, she raised her head and then looked at the group of women who were running as if they were the ones who were being chased after by that murderer.      

" Village head Gu what is the meaning of this?"      

" What is going on, why are the corpses of the mers piled up in there?"      

" Is something going on?"     

" Everyone calm down," Village head Gu raised her head as she swept her gaze at the women of the village sternly. "As you have already seen the mers who were missing from the village are all killed, this is something that no one told me about." She glanced at the women of the village, half of them looked confused while the other half lowered their heads and immediately tried to act as if they weren't even there.      

" The mers of the village were getting kidnapped and killed yet no one from the village came to complain to me or the previous village head which shows that some of you deliberately wanted to hide the matter from me," she glared at the women who had their heads lowered and then shifted uncomfortably on their feet as they tried to hide behind the crowd.      

They were afraid of being talked about and that was why they were trying so hard to bury the matter of their mers being missing, now that this matter was exposed like a forest fire and to make matters worse it also seemed to have burned the village head, they wouldn't be able to escape responsibility!     

Unlike Madam Qui who was genuinely worried and upset about losing her son, these women did not care about the mers of their family who died in such an aggrieved manner if anything they deserved it, in their eyes.     

The only thing that was worrying them was that they have to bear the brunt of Village head Gu's anger.      

Village head Gu has been keeping an eye on these women who lowered their heads earlier seeing that they were trying to hide behind the crowd who seemed to have no idea about what was going on, she immediately sneered, " You all better come clean and tell me what is going on, if you don't then I will go ahead and kick the families who are behind this out of the village, don't think that since the bodies are decomposed I wouldn't be able to find out anything, as long as I am willing to contact the authorities, the matter will come to light and then you all can come to the county magistrate office with me, you hear that?"      

The threat of visiting the county magistrate's office seemed to work at once, those women who were hiding behind the crowd immediately rushed forward and started shouting.     

" Village head Gu there is no need for you to do something like this for the sake of a few mers right?"      

" That's right our village has so many mers already what's the problem if a few died?"      

" Mers are already so useless, they are only a burden when they are born… do we have to suffer because of the now that they are dead as well?"      

" This is injustice I say!"          

"It's their fault! Who asked them to go around attracting the attention of the women of the village? If anything they are the ones who deserved to die like this for going out of the house when we told them not to!"
