The Reborn Military Pet: The 60-year old wife is so hot

CHAPTER 8

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he saw the tiny Fang Yuxi standing at the door. He Youwei's wife, Wang Qiuju, hurriedly stepped forward, pulled Fang Yuxi and asked nervously.

"Aunt Qiu Ju, I'm fine. Uncle Youwei, don't move and be careful of the animal trap."

Feeling the sincere care from others, Fang Yuxi smiled, showing a row of small and white teeth, appearing obedient, and quickly stopped He Youwei who was attempting to check inside. 

Fang Yuxi sincerely felt that this Dongsheng Village was not a good place, and the villagers harbored a strong dislike towards her. She was tortured terribly at the hands of Tang Guihua, and few people stood up for her. They watched her suffer with cold eyes, leaving her with no affection for Dongsheng Village. 

But not everyone is like this. There are also people who show kindness to her. Although they are too few, the He family couple is one of them. This is why Fang Yuxi treated them completely different.

Many times, when she was on the brink of fainting from hunger, it was these kind-hearted people who came to her aid, keeping her alive. She would never forget the bitterness she harbored towards those who made her suffer, nor would she forget the kindness bestowed upon her by others..

"Ah! There is a bear trap in this yard!"

As soon as Fang Yuxi said this, He Youwei's body immediately stiffened as he slowly walked towards the inner room. His heart pounded rapidly and he was almost scared to death. He had never imagined that there could be such a dangerous thing in this yard. If he walked a little faster, he would be in trouble. He Youwei took a cautious step back, his little heart beating nervously.

At that moment, other villagers also rushed over, holding hoes and sticks in their hands, and rushed in to catch the thief with a murderous look on their faces.

And these people happened to hear Fang Yuxi's words. The torches shone in the yard. The dense animal traps covering the yard made the people who came to help tighten their backs and break out in a nervous sweat. This... With such a setup,any thief who dared to attack Fang Yuxi would be walking into certain death!

"Ahem! Girl Xi, is there a thief at home? Are you okay?" Village chief Liu Jianguo was the first to react and asked with concern after coughing twice.

Although Liu Jianguo is usually selfish, he is still good at his work and is very serious and responsible. He is also very concerned about Fang Yuxi's home. After all, Xiang Qian just passed away and he is still a retired combat hero. If anything were to happen to Fang Yuxi during this delicate time, as the village chief, he would face severe backlash from the entire community for failing to protect an orphan girl.

"Uncle Jianguo, I'm fine, but the thief ran away, but my animal trap caught the thief." Fang Yuxi looked at Liu Jianguo with a determined look, a flash of disgust in her eyes.

Fang Yuxi really doesn't like Liu Jianguo, the head of Dongsheng Village. He is a very selfish person. Although he is usually very responsible in doing things, he is very selfish. In her previous life, this selfishness led to her tragic fate. Liu Jianguo's reluctance to intervene stemmed from his familial ties with Tang Guihua, his cousin. Had he handled the situation impartially, Fang Yuxi might have been spared from being sold by Tang Guihua.

However, one redeeming quality about Liu Jianguo, is that, he is timid. What others see as a shortcoming is actually Liu Jianguo's biggest advantage.

Because Liu Jianguo is timid, although he is selfish and can take advantage, he will not use the power in his hands to do unscrupulous things like other black-hearted village cadres. Those villagers who embezzle their money are pitiful. At least such a thing will not happen in Dongsheng Village.

As a result, the villagers were aware of Liu Jianguo's self-serving nature, yet they refrained from attempting to remove him from his position. Who knew if his replacement would be even more merciless? Presently, they managed to sustain themselves adequately, but under a different leader, they might face hunger. In today's world, merely avoiding encountering treachery or malevolence was already considered a divine blessing.

But for Fang Yuxi, Liu Jianguo's shortcoming was what she hated the most. It should be said that Liu Jianguo's inaction was also one of the reasons for her despair in life.

Although she hated him, she didn't want to do anything to him now. While Liu Jianguo was undoubtedly at fault, the extent of her response was simply to ignore him—an approach mirrored by most of the village residents.  She was just stupid and cowardly in her previous life. If someone still wants to harm her in this life, don't blame her for being ruthless. She is no longer the fool who broke her teeth and swallowed them.

"So many animal traps!" At this moment, everyone also discovered the animal traps in the yard. The sharp-eyed people also saw the red blood stains on one of them, and many people took a breath.

"I'm a little scared to be alone at home."

Fang Yuxi lowered her head and said weakly. She couldn't let everyone think that she was too cruel, but Fang Yuxi didn't know that, coupled with the animal trap here, her weak look really gave everyone a strange sense of peacekeeping.
