After hearing Li Yun's words, Grandma Li was stunned for a moment and looked at Li Yun suspiciously. She knew her son was like a mother. She always felt that Li Yun was talking nonsense and seemed to be hiding something from her.
Fang Li took the cloth bag from Grandma Li's hand, smiled and said to Grandma Li, "Mom, you are tired, sit down and rest, and I will prepare meals for you."
Grandma Li smiled happily. She was indeed a little tired, so she turned around and sat down to rest.
Zhu Lin came to Grandma Li and asked in a low voice: "Second Aunt, what would happen to you if my second uncle is still alive?"
Grandma Li's eyes flashed, and she looked at the Yin Yang gentlemen who were beating bowls and chanting sutras in the main room, and said quietly: "If he is still alive, but doesn't want to live, then never come back for the rest of his life, and I will treat him as dead. How we lived before is how we still live now.”
"You don't complain?" Zhu Lin asked.
"Is resentment useful?" Grandma Li asked.
Zhu Lin was startled for a moment, then smiled knowingly, yes! What's the use of resentment? Those who don't come back still haven't come back. Why should you let yourself live in resentment and make yourself unhappy?
"Second Aunt is still alive and well," Zhu Lin said.
The corner of Grandma Li's mouth curled up into a bitter smile. She had also complained and hated it before.
When Li Ying saw Grandma Li coming back, she ran to Grandma Li with a smile on her face and said, "Grandma, you're back!"
Grandma Li looked at Li Ying's smiling face, and her depressed mood disappeared. She didn't care whether that damn ghost was dead or alive. She now has a son, a filial daughter-in-law, her grandson and granddaughter are getting older, and her living conditions are getting better and better. There will be endless blessings in the future.
Li Ying sat down next to Grandma Li and said mysteriously: "Grandma, let me tell you a little secret?"
"What little secret?" Grandma Li asked, raising her eyebrows.
"Grandpa Zu said that my father's father is not dead, he is still alive." Li Ying whispered.
Grandma Li's pupils trembled slightly. Her suspicion was confirmed. Anger welled up in her heart. She looked at Zhu Lin and asked in a deep voice, "Li Hongjun is really not dead?"
Zhu Lin said quickly: "How do I know? Second aunt should ask grandpa."
Grandma Li was about to say something when she saw Aunt Lin walking towards her with a smile, so she didn't ask Zhu Lin any more.
Li Yun and Lin Qingxuan were sitting in the yard bragging. Li Yun said: "When my father was young, he was very strong. He could kill a cow with one punch. He was as powerful as Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu. If my father were still alive, , I’m sure he’s a general now, it’s a pity that he died young, otherwise I’d be a second-generation military man now, a young master…”
Li Chun and Li Hongliang sat aside and listened with their mouths twitching. They had never known that Li Yun was so good at bragging, and they were blown away by it.
Li Xueer rolled her eyes. In her previous life, Li Yun did not leave Jinyin Village until her death. Li Hongjun was not a general either. He just heard from his family that being a housekeeper had no future.
Li Ying saw the female ghost in red next to Li Xueer and waved to her.
The female ghost in red didn't expect that Li Ying could see her, so she floated in front of Li Ying and asked, "Did you call me?"
"How boring is it that you follow Li Xue'er all day long and can't do anything to her?" Li Ying said.
Reluctance flashed in the eyes of the female ghost in red, "If you can't do it now, it doesn't mean you can't do it in the future. I have plenty of time."
Li Ying said to the female ghost in red: "Are you coming with me?"
Li Ying brought the female ghost in red to the room, took out the talismans, pointed to the words on it and asked, "Do you know any words?"
"I am a young lady. Not to mention literacy, I know a little bit about chess, music, calligraphy and painting." said the female ghost in red.
"My parents are very busy and don't have time to teach me how to read. How about you teach me how to read and write, and I'll vent my anger for you?" Li Ying asked. "Aren't you afraid of me?" the female ghost in red asked curiously.
"I've seen a lot of ghosts. In my eyes, ghosts are no different from ordinary people." Li Ying said calmly: "And I have this."
As Li Ying spoke, she took out the soul-catching bell. The female ghost in red looked at the bell in Li Ying's hand and exclaimed: "The soul-catching bell?"
"It turns out that the bell is called the soul-catching bell! No wonder those ghosts are afraid of it." Li Ying suddenly realized and shook the bell gently.
"Don't shake!" The female ghost in red hurriedly stopped her.
Li Ying put the soul-catching bell into her small shoulder bag. The female ghost in red breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of her Dingyan beads, she looked at Li Ying and asked, "Where are the beads you picked up in the cave?"
"I accidentally swallowed it." Li Ying said annoyed.
"What, you ate the beads?" the female ghost in red asked in horror.
"I didn't eat it, I accidentally dropped it into my mouth, and it slipped into my throat and entered my stomach." Li Ying explained.
"That bead is mine. It can make the face last forever and prevent the body of the deceased from rotting. If it weren't for Li Xue'er, I could wait for the opportunity and bring the dead back to life." The female ghost in red said angrily.
Li Ying smiled guiltily, "Your body has been burned, so holding the beads is useless. Besides, I didn't eat the beads on purpose."
The female ghost in red glared at Li Ying dissatisfiedly and floated out of the room.
Li Ying touched her belly. It turned out that beads were so precious! It's a pity, otherwise she would have a lot of money if she sold it! Li Ying walked out of the room and saw the female ghost in red kicking a Yin-Yang gentleman away. The other three Yin-Yang gentlemen were all frightened.
Everyone sitting in the yard was shocked! What's happening here? Lin Qingxuan, Li Meng, and other people who came to help looked up at the sky in unison, and saw that the sky had darkened, but it was not dark yet, and their expressions became a little subtle. Could it be that Li Hongjun disliked Mr. Yin and Yang's Taoism?
Mr. Yin-Yang got up, ignored the other three Mr. Yin-Yang, and ran towards the gate, disappearing in a flash.
Li Yun scratched his head in confusion. What was going on? Could it be that his biological father was really dead?
The female ghost in red vented her anger and threw the other three Yin-Yang gentlemen out of the yard one by one. Lin Qingxuan watched Mr. Yin-Yang throw them out, worried that they would also be thrown out of the door. They stood close together in fear, not daring to express their anger. .
The female ghost in red looked at Li Ying provocatively. The dead girl ate her Dingyan Pearl, but she couldn't let go of the bad breath. The depression in her heart was hard to get rid of.
Li Ying looked back at the female ghost in red with an indifferent expression. She was just teasing and scaring a few yin-yang gentlemen. It was harmless and she wouldn't care. Moreover, those yin-yang gentlemen didn't even have the ability to protect themselves. They deserved to be taught a lesson.
Li Ying sat on the chair calmly and saw Li Xueer standing up with a face full of fear, as if ready to go home, she quietly stretched out her foot and tripped Li Xueer.
Seeing Li Xueer throw a dog and eat shit, she secretly smiled and took her foot back.
Zhu Lin hurriedly helped Li Xue'er up and asked with concern: "Xue'er, does it hurt from the fall?"
Li Xueer did not answer Zhu Lin, but looked at Li Ying angrily. Li Ying looked at Li Xueer with an innocent face.
Li Xueer was so angry when she saw Li Ying pretending to be innocent. This damn girl is getting smarter and shrewder. She doesn't look like a five-year-old child at all. "Li Ying, did you trip me and fall on purpose?"
"No, I'm so good. I didn't move even while sitting." Li Ying said.
The female ghost in red suddenly became happy when she saw that Li Xueer was deflated! Maybe she could consider Li Ying's proposal.
