Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 2519: Chapter 2519: Local Bullies, One After Another

A middle-aged man stood up and accused the An family’s eldest daughter-in-law.

Even if there was a Scholar Master in their family, there was nothing to fear. Everyone relied on their own land to make a living, not on the benefits from An Que being a scholar.

Now that they’ve helped, yet received such treatment, who could tolerate this?

”No good deed goes unpunished, let’s go.”

Many people left with cold expressions, thinking that having a scholar in the family wasn’t that impressive. Maybe, at most, he would just be a scholar.

The members of that family, each one like wolves, would bring bad luck to whomever they were close to. If such a family could prosper, it would be as if the heavens were blind.

”You can’t leave, none of you can leave! It must be one of you who burned my Que’er’s books, you all...”

The An family’s eldest daughter-in-law saw they were leaving and couldn’t let it rest. She wanted to rush over and stop them, but her husband stepped forward and pulled her back.

”That’s enough, don’t you think it’s chaotic enough?”

He felt that the whole day had been a mess and feared worse things might happen. He couldn’t let his wife offend everyone in the village.

”How is it me causing trouble? It’s clearly them who burned my Que’er’s books, it’s them...”

A loud slap echoed.

A hard slap landed on the woman’s face, causing her to turn sideways.

”Shut up!”

Older An was truly angry. Though he felt heartache over the burned books, without seeing who did it, what could he do?

”Offending the villagers, what good does that do you? How can you be so foolish?”

Though the villagers seemed honest and straightforward, always flattering their family before, if truly offended, they were not easy to deal with.

Each one of them was a tyrant in their territory; offending any of them would bring a world of trouble for them.

”I...”

The eldest daughter-in-law opened her mouth in grievance but dared not speak further.

She looked painfully at the pile of burned books; those were bought through the family’s frugal savings, and now they were destroyed.

Moreover, even if they weren’t burned, being drenched with buckets of water left the characters unreadable; they were nothing now.

”It’s over, it’s all over. How could this happen?”

She, like Old Lady An, sat down on the ground, wailing loudly.

”I said we should eat first, eat first! Why did we have to go look for Que’er when everyone was heading out? Que’er is such a grown person, can’t he come back himself?

Now it’s gone, all the books are gone. What’s Que’er going to do in the future? He was about to go to the capital! It’s a tragedy, how did it come to this? We should’ve left someone at home; it wouldn’t have ended up like this.

Who on earth can’t stand to see my Que’er doing well and came to our house to set a fire?”

Listening to her crying and scolding, the whole family’s expressions darkened, especially Old Lady An; her face looked even worse because the person who insisted on everyone going out to find someone was her!

At this moment, she couldn’t even blame her daughter-in-law for implying that it was her fault. She just thought that if she hadn’t made everyone leave, perhaps such things wouldn’t have happened.

Her precious grandson’s books, who was so malicious, came to her house to burn the books!
