Chapter 1711: Mountain Spirit
Gu Mo saw that his daughter was frowning and seed to be lost in her thoughts. So he asked worriedly, "Is everything alright, Nuan Nuan? Why did you go outside the village? And how did you get stung by the bees? Did soone attack you?"
"Who will attack a child?" Master Xu was amused by the words that Gu Mo said to Ding Nuan Nuan. "You are just trying to stir trouble aren't you?"
"Am I trying to stir trouble?" Gu Mo turned to look at Master Xu. He snorted and said, "Only you will think that I am trying to do such a stupid thing."
"I have heard all about what happened in the village. Village Head Gu t with an accident and ended up breaking her legs, Doctor Gu on the other hand ended up twisting her ankle and then there is the matter of a boar attacking the village."
"Do you think these accidents were just coincidental? I think not!"
Master Xu was speechless. He looked at Gu Mo and asked, "Have you lost your mind?"
"Have I? Have I?" Gu Mo sneered. "I just think that there is sothing wrong with the village. How co everyone ended up in this freak of accidents one after another?"
Master Xu rolled his eyes, he didn't think much of it as he knew that Gu Mo was used to making problematic comnts.
He liked trouble after all.
However, Ding Nuan Nuan who was sitting on the bed was struck with a mont of epiphany. She suddenly realised that she was not unlucky but instead, she had a wonderful way to use this opportunity and make that r, Yu Mai suffer with her hands.
Maybe she might even win Yu Dong's heart if she were to succeed in pushing this pot of bla on Yu Mai's head.
What was more, it was just like how her daddy said —it was truly suspicious.
If she continued to let this matter fester, then it wouldn't take long for them to realise that the people who t with accidents were the ones who were doting on her the most.
Ding Nuan Nuan knew that she had to put a stop to this matter, if she didn't then everyone would know that there was sothing wrong with her. And it would only take them a little investigation to find out about Big Yu.
If this continued then she would lose everything!
Ding Nuan Nuan could not allow that to happen which was why she was going to push this matter on Yu Mai's head.
Once it was proven that Yu Mai was the disaster star, no one would like him anymore. Even his sister would stray clear of his path.
Anyway, Yu Mai was not even here. Who would trace the rumour back to her? And she was just a child. Children talked nonsense all the ti.
Ding Nuan Nuan's head had turned sharper and calculative after living with Big Yu for so long. Not to ntion the more life force she inhaled the more the ghosts in the village beca clear to her.
Now she could talk with those who were not even alive! Thus, she had learned all sorts of things.
"I...I don't know .." Ding Nuan Nuan's voice was trembling as she twiddled with her thumbs. "I was going ho but then ..then Mai t
—he asked
to co outside but when I —I went, he wasn't there."
"And—and soone pushed —it was so scary."
As soon as Gu Mo and Old Master Ding heard this, their eyes were filled with scorching fire.
"I knew it!" Gu Mo gasped as he hugged his daughter. "I knew that there was sothing wrong with that family, especially that child. How can a fool like him be so quick-witted and sharp? They must be hiding sothing!"
Gasp!
"Don't tell
that the child's soul was replaced by a mountain spirit when he caught a fever back then?"
"What nonsense!" Master Xu was sharp enough to sense that there was sothing wrong with Ding Nuan Nuan. She and Yu Mai were not even friends. Why would Yu Mai ask her to et him? He didn't even like her at all!
He sternly rebuked Gu Mo, "Pay attention to your words. That poor child is a r, if you spread such rumours who will dare to marry him in the future!? His life would be ruined."
"What do you an by that?" Old Master Ding was a fool when it ca to his daughter and was an even bigger fool when it ca to his granddaughter. He glared at Master Xu and said, "Are you going to stop us from speaking the truth as well now? Can you not see that all the accidents that took place happened in the Yu family? I am willing to bet everything that r is so kind of foxy spirit!"
"No wonder the children all like to play with him and the adults like him. It is because of his charm, who will like a r like him anyway?"
The more Old Master Ding thought about it, the more ascertained he beca. By the end of his thought process, he was almost entirely certain that Yu Mai was not a human! In fact, he was not even alive, he was a dead thing that was possessed by so mountain spirit!
More importantly, they liked playing with Yu Mai more than his granddaughter. There must be sothing wrong! How could they not like his granddaughter and like that child instead!?
"You are really too much!" Master Shu was speechless as he turned and looked at his father-in-law. "Little Mai is cordial and he helps everyone, have you not heard about Madam Niu? She caught a deadly flu and Mai was the one who paid for her treatnt of course people will like him."
What kind of nonsensical reasoning was this? Just because others liked Yu Mai more than Ding Nuan Nuan, he was a mountain spirit?
