At dinner, Shanshan held the milk jug with red and swollen eyes, sobbing and drinking milk.

"What happened? Shanshan was beaten again?" Rong Che couldn't help but ask.

Shanshan looked at her father pitifully, with tears in her eyes, trying to arouse his love.

"Chiji...da..." The voice was hoarse and looked extremely pitiful.

Rong Che nodded: "Did my sister call me?"

Under Shanshan's expectant gaze, Rong Che clapped his hands and nodded: "Good fight!"

I hope Daddy will support the fair and just Shanshan? ?

"Your sister must have her reasons for hitting you. It must be because you were not well behaved and you were naughty..." After saying that, he looked at Yunniang.

"You have to tell Chao Chao that if he hits his brother, he can't hit his father."

Shanshan felt like crying as soon as her mouth pursed.

But when she saw Lu Chaochao's sidelong glance, she immediately held back her tears.

He was itching to steal the book of life and death and cross out his sister's name.

After Lu Chaochao finished her meal, she let Zhu Mo hold her brother and go to find the unlucky ghost who had written the wrong name.

He learned the character "召" (zhao) but wrote the wrong person.

Lu Chaochao came to the outside of the city according to the location of the Book of Life and Death.

In a quiet mountain village outside the city, a funeral was being held. The villagers all came to help spontaneously, and paper money was scattered all over the door.

Wreaths were placed outside the wall, and faint cries could be heard from inside the house.

Lu Chaochao poked Shanshan's forehead fiercely: "Look at what you have done! You killed one person and caused the death of another person."

"How are his young children and elderly mother supposed to survive?"

"He was the only one who died, but the whole family was implicated."

"Shanshan, every life deserves respect." Lu Chaochao's expression was serious. Shanshan lay in Zhu Mo's arms, looking at everything in front of her in confusion.

Could such a disaster be caused by just a casual stroke of his hand?

The young boy seemed to understand but not quite.

The carriage stopped outside the gate, surrounded by guards. Many people gathered outside the gate, watching from a distance and not daring to approach.

"He looks like a nobleman from the capital. How could Li Zhao's family know such a nobleman?"

"Shh, keep your voice down..." the villagers whispered.

Zhu Mo stepped forward, bowed, and asked, "Excuse me, is this the home of Master Li Zhao?"

"Yes, yes, I'll call someone for you." The villager at the door hurriedly ran inside.

"Li Zhao's family, Li Zhao's family. Someone came to pay their respects to Li Zhao."

"It seems that he recognizes your Li Zhao, why don't you go and pick him up. It seems that he is a distinguished guest from the capital..."

As soon as she finished speaking, a woman in white walked out of the door with red eyes, holding a little boy.

The woman looked pale, her eyes were dazed, and there was a hint of death in her eyes.

Lu Chaochao frowned slightly.

The woman knelt down and kowtowed when she came forward, which was the etiquette for paying condolences at one's residence.

Zhu Mo knew the truth and immediately stopped them: "We have some connection with Master Li Zhao, so we came here to take a look today."

"I remember he just passed the examination and became a scholar? He even went to Beijing to study under a teacher some time ago..." Zhu Mo had already sent someone to inquire about him.

When the woman heard this, tears started streaming down her face.

"Please come in, Li Zhao...Yes, he just passed the examination and became a scholar." The woman burst into tears.

“He studied hard for ten years, but passed away just after passing the exam. How can we, an orphan and a widow, survive…” The woman held back her tears and invited the man in with a trembling voice.

The little boy with red eyes beside them bowed to them and stood obediently beside his mother.

"Li Zhao was raised by his widowed mother, who went blind doing embroidery to earn money for him. His wife had fled here a few years ago, and Li Zhao was the only one left in the family."

The old lady in the house cried until she fainted several times, and she hugged the coffin and shouted: "Let me go in place of my son... Let me take his life." "My Zhao'er... Do you want to dig out your heart?" The old lady lay in front of the coffin and cried bitterly.

Shanshan lay on Zhu Mo's shoulder, and Lu Chaochao turned his body over.

"Just watch carefully..."

"With just a casual stroke of your hand, you take away more than just one life." Lu Chaochao's voice was a little cold, and his tone seemed to suggest something.

Shanshan didn't dare to look, she only felt that the atmosphere in the room was heavy and uncomfortable.

The young woman knelt in front of the hall with an expressionless face, and the villagers around her were also sighing.

"Alas, the old lady raised the child with great difficulty and saved a girl who fled from famine to be her daughter-in-law. Seeing that she passed the imperial examination and her life was getting better and better, how could she suddenly pass away? How can this family survive..."

"Yes, my daughter-in-law's hometown suffered a disaster and her whole family was gone. It's so hard to have a home now..." When she first came to the village, she was so hungry that her skin was pale and thin. She finally gained some weight in the Li family.

The little boy is still young and doesn't understand birth, aging, sickness and death.

At this moment, he just cried and went to pull his grandmother: "Grandma, please don't cry, what's wrong with you? Daddy will be sad..."

The coffin had not been closed yet, so he tiptoed into the coffin.

"Daddy, get up quickly and don't sleep in. Daddy, wake up quickly... Mom and grandma are crying, don't sleep in. Yu Yu is so scared... Daddy..." The child's voice was choked with sobs, and everyone burst into tears after hearing this.

Lu Chaochao winked at Zhu Mo, and Zhu Mo put Shanshan down.

Shanshan was less than ten months old and could barely walk a few steps by holding on to the wall. Now she sat down in front of the mourning hall, at a loss as to what to do.

The gaze of his sister behind him made him feel very uncomfortable.

The crying in his ears and the sadness in front of him made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

He looked left and right, but his sister didn't say anything and he didn't know what to do.

He also didn't know that Lu Chaochao was also hesitant.

Is Shanshan really saved?
Shanshan was stunned for a moment, then, imitating the others, she crawled to the mat and kowtowed twice awkwardly.

Shanshan looked at her sister cautiously.

He kowtowed only because his sister frightened him.

At such a young age, he was trying to figure out what his sister was thinking.

Before he could crawl back, he heard a cry from his side: "Husband, if you want to go, let's go together!"

He watched as the woman rushed towards the coffin with determination.

With a bang, his head hit the corner of the coffin.

The woman fell limply at his feet.

Shanshan was shocked by this scene. Blood dripped down her forehead. The mourning hall was in chaos. Shanshan knelt there steadily...

The crying of the little boy mixed with the panicked screams of the crowd, but Shanshan did not move.

Zhu Mo was probably going to be a father soon, so seeing him like this made him feel so soft-hearted that he wanted to go up and hug him.

Lu Chaozhao shook his head slightly.

Just now, when she met him, she saw that the woman was full of deathly intent, and she was afraid that she had the idea of ​​committing suicide for love.

So I have been paying attention to it.

When she rushed forward just now, she protected herself with her spiritual energy.

He was not seriously injured, only suffered some superficial injuries on his forehead, but he looked scary, and everyone was frightened out of their wits.

Including someone who has no reverence for life.

The old lady's wailing and the children's crying made a loud noise.

No one noticed Shanshan, and he seemed to be surrounded by this tragedy.

He pursed his lips and clenched the corners of his clothes with his chubby little hands.

This scene had a huge impact on him. (End of this chapter)
