reborn idle wife

Chapter 5

Shui Mo left after doing some work for a while. When he left, he deliberately left the candle behind, which illuminated the room brightly.

Dong Li was lying on the bed, probably because he had done a lot of things during the day, he was really tired, and he fell asleep very quickly.

In the middle of the night, it began to rain outside. Although it was not heavy, it seemed to be raining a little bit, and it should last for a while.On the contrary, the dry weather has been alleviated, and the harvest in the crop fields has finally been preserved.

In Dongli's room, the window may not be closed tightly, and it was blown by the outside wind, and the wind blowing in was cold and swishing, waking up Dongli who was dishonest and kicked the quilt, rubbing his eyes and crawling When I got up, the candlelight was dimmed, fluttering in the wind, as if it would go out soon.

Dongli yelled twice, but there was no movement outside, and he shook his head secretly. This girl was deader than herself when she slept, so she put on her clothes and got up to close the window. .

After closing the window, Dongli thought about it, and moved a stool over and placed it on the table against the window to prevent it from being blown open again.Only then did he clap his hands, picked up the small silver scissors and cut off the candle flower, the candle light brightened again, then he yawned in satisfaction, put down the scissors and prepared to go back to bed and sleep for a while.As soon as he turned around, he saw a pale face, and his yawning stopped immediately.

Dongli screamed in fright, the voice was very loud, but the ink painting outside still made no sound, the surrounding was quiet, as if it had become two worlds with the outside, Dongli was the only person here facing this unknown thing.

Dongli's whole body was drenched with sweat in an instant. Isn't this the woman in white that he saw in the evening?Looking closer now, she is actually a beauty, with a pair of watery phoenix eyes, and a small and cute melon-seeded face, but her face is too pale.

Dongli subconsciously touched the small scissors used to cut candle flowers, and held them tightly in his hands: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

The woman in white looked straight at her, and suddenly grinned: "Can you see me? Can you really see me?"

Holding the scissors in his hand, Dongli took a few steps back until his back hit the cold wall: "Are you a human or a ghost? What do you want to do?"

"You can really see me." The woman in white finally came to this conclusion, and then came over lightly: "You can see me, you can see me!"

Dongli almost collapsed. On such a rainy night, there was no one around, and no one could hear the call, but there was a female ghost in white. It was a ghost, right?Staring at her here.

"Don't come here!" He raised the sharp knife in front of his eyes, endured his legs that were almost limp, and Dongli's nose was sweating, but he comforted himself over and over again in his heart, there was nothing to be afraid of, isn't it just a ghost? ?They are all made of human beings. Could it be more terrifying than human hearts?But when I saw the woman's pale face, I felt chills in my heart.

"I won't hurt you, I need your help." The female ghost actually stopped and stared at her faintly: "Ghosts are not scary, the most terrifying thing is those vicious people."

Seeing her stop, Dongli breathed a sigh of relief: "What can I help you? Even you can't do it, I'm just a little girl."

"It's because I'm a ghost that I can't do these things." The woman stepped back to express her attitude, and Dongli seemed a little more relaxed.

"I am the wife of the original owner of this house. My surname is Liu. Everyone calls me Han Liu."

Han Liushi?Dongli was stunned for a moment, remembering that Mo Youran said that the original owner of this house was surnamed Han, yes, but his wife was surnamed Wu, but this female ghost claimed that she was Master Han's wife: "You are Master Han's wife ? But I heard."

"What did you hear? That bitch is your wife?" Liu's eyes suddenly became particularly scary, and his almond eyes seemed to pop out again in an instant, but seeing Dongli's slightly frightened eyes in front of him, he held back : "That bitch was originally a servant girl by my side, but now she pretends to be his wife!"

Is Mrs. Wu actually born as a maid?Dongli was stunned, the original partner and mistress?
"I'm a girl from the Liu family. In the past, my father was a local magistrate, and he was also a lady of an official family." The Liu family began to talk quietly, and it was nothing more than a relationship between a lady from a rich family and a son from a wealthy family. Marriage affection.

When they first got married, Mr. Han was very kind to Liu Shi. Firstly, the young couple were newlyweds, and secondly, his father-in-law was an official, so he couldn't afford to offend her. So Liu Shi lived a happy life for many days. The master didn't even confiscate a housemaid, and the husband and wife with the Liu family are harmonious, and how many people died of envy.

But after the master of the Liu family resigned from office, everything was different.

Master Han lost his father-in-law's oppression, and immediately became arrogant. The old guy has no influence. Besides, the Han family has developed with the help of the old guy over the years, and he doesn't care about a small county magistrate at all, let alone a small county magistrate. resigned.So Liu's suffering came.

At the beginning, she kept sleeping outside in the willows, and then brought her concubines home one room after another. Liu Shi also knew that she had no support from her natal family, so she didn't dare to cry out loud, so she could only swallow her anger Let a group of women criticize Sang Huai's sarcasm and sarcasm.

Later, seeing that Master Han did not stop her, the women intensified their efforts. There was a personal servant girl named Yujin next to Mrs. Liu, who was later Mrs. Wu, and also took this opportunity to climb onto Mr. Han's bed.Yujin is beautiful, with a mouth that can talk, and quickly won the favor of Master Han, because she was born as a maid, and it is not very nice to say it, Master Han even asked Liu to recognize this Yujin as a cousin .

The later things can be roughly guessed without Liu's talking about Dongli. This Wu is a scheming one. Now that he has won the master's favor and identity, the next thing he wants to plot is naturally the position of the main room. This Liu family is also a fool, isn't it obvious that giving her the status of maidservant gave her hope?A servant girl cannot be a regular wife, but Wu Yujin became the Liu family's cousin, which means she has the status of a good family, so she is naturally qualified.

As a result, Liu Shi, who was in the way of others, was secretly murdered.

Dongli sighed, this is the disadvantage of three wives and four concubines. The fight between women is so fierce, it is no worse than the confrontation between men.Mrs. Liu was still rambling on about her grievances.Wu Yujin gave her some hands and feet in the bird's nest. After using it, she fell into a drowsy sleep. When she woke up, she found that she had become a lonely ghost, and the person who killed her was standing aside. Looking at her dead body hanging from the beam, she sneered.

What was even more difficult for Liu Shi to accept was that her husband, Mr. Han, knew that he was killed by that bitch Wu Yujin, but he didn't care about it, and agreed with Wu Shi's reason that his wife couldn't think about it and was jealous.

Worried about the haunting spirit after Liu's death, Mrs. Wu found a wandering Taoist priest. The Taoist priest was greedy for the money Wu gave, so he came up with an idea to bury Mrs. Liu's body under the crabapple in Xifu, and use amulets to melt it every day. The good water irrigates the crabapple tree and firmly suppresses Mrs. Liu, so that she can only cling to the crabapple tree and cannot leave the yard.

Then Mrs. Wu packed her bags and followed Mr. Han back to her hometown, and the house was sold to the Mo family.

No wonder they asked Haosheng to take care of the Xifu crabapple before they left. Dongli felt a little uncomfortable, and she still sat under the crabapple tree for a long time today.No wonder the crabapple is so lush, there is a reason for it.

"You told me this, do you want me to avenge you?" Dongli calmed down, but did not put down the scissors in his hand: "I will send someone to the yamen tomorrow. Your corpse is Buried under the crabapple tree, you can see the clues when you dig it up. Then they won’t be able to escape.”

Mrs. Liu bowed profusely: "Thank you benefactor! The little lady must remember her benefactor's great kindness and virtue."

It’s enough if you don’t have nothing to come out and scare me, Dongli secretly complained, Liu Shi had already floated out like a puff of smoke, and there was a muffled voice from outside: "Miss, what are you doing up? What's the matter?" Just a servant girl."

"It's okay, the windows are not closed tightly. It's ready. You can go to sleep." Dongli let go of the scissors, with a layer of sweat in his palms, he was relieved and went back to bed to lie down, but he couldn't sleep anymore, tossing and turning For a while, I was secretly annoyed that the Han family was bold enough to kill people, but they still sold the haunted house to them.

Parents will come here tomorrow, so we should settle this matter before parents arrive, so as not to worry the two elders.

After lying on the bed for a while, I heard roosters crowing outside. The girl Shui Mo was very diligent and got up early to get busy. Dong Li heard the movement outside and got up: "Shui Mo, is it still raining outside?"

Shui Mo came in immediately: "Why don't you sleep more? It's still early. The rain has stopped, but the weather is still gloomy, and it will probably rain later."

Dongli was thinking about what happened last night, how could she sleep soundly, Shui Mo added a thick dress to her, and she couldn't wait to go out, and went straight to the Xifu Begonia.

It just rained, and the wet and muddy ink on the ground chased after him with an oiled paper umbrella: "Then there is a lot of rain on the crabapple tree, be careful to catch cold from the rain."

After a night of wind and rain, there were scattered petals under the crabapple in Xifu, "Do you know? Do you know? It should be green, fat, red and thin", Dongli muttered, and called Shui Mo: "Go and ask brother to come here, just say I have something important My son told him, and asked my brother to bring more servants over."

Shui Mo murmured in his heart, why the young lady was acting weird so early in the morning, but he didn't ask any more questions, he gave Dongli the umbrella and ran away in a hurry.

Dongli looked up at the luxuriant crabapple tree. Such a beautiful thing hides such a terrible secret underneath. No matter what, this crabapple can't be kept. You should get it away quickly, or you will think of Liu Shi when you see it. Come.

Mo Youran soon came over, and indeed there were several strong servants behind him, Dongli saw it from a distance, and said to the crabapple tree with his palms together: "Don't worry, I will definitely punish you. "
