Splash~
Pouring a basin of facial wash into the ditch on the street corner, Li stared at the gurgling stream for a while before holding the wooden basin step by step and moving it back.
Since her son's accidental death, it seed that a large piece had been dug out of her chest, leaving nothing to fill. She has no interest in anything, and dressing, washing, and cooking every day were just due to the inertia of life over the years.
The only thing that still lingered in her heart was the word revenge.
However, to be honest, when there was no one in the quiet night, Li also asked herself whether the death of her son was a greater sin for Cobbler Wang or a greater sin of her own because she couldn't resist loneliness.
The answer seed obvious
But what Li wanted was not the answer, but the words peace of mind!
The only way to make her feel at ease at the mont was to hold Cobbler Wang and atone for it together, at least according to Li.
So an insignificant woman was just so amazing... Spat It was scary!
Li walked back a few steps, holding the wooden basin, and saw three middle-aged won in the corner chatting together, seemingly lowering their voices. In fact, they wished everyone in the street could hear them.
If it had been in the past, Li would have joined them early and gossiped together.
But now
She didn't squint and even deliberately adjusted her path to avoid the three won as much as possible.
Although she could avoid the people, the content of the discussion was too much to avoid, and it spread to Li's ears.
Have you heard that the eldest of the Cobbler Wang family has difficulty breathing in the middle of the night and woke up speaking nonsense after? He didn't even look like a person anymore.
Li had long heard about the illness of Cobbler Wang's eldest son. It was said that he returned from the Yane one day and developed a high fever at night. After seeing several doctors, his condition didnt improve.
Not only was he speaking full of nonsense, but he was also almost like a different person. At a young age, he's talking about wanting to marry the daughter of Lady Tian, who has already ordered half a piece of cloth at ho, ready to invite Matchmaker Liu to go ask for matchmaking.
Li's footsteps suddenly paused.
Before her son died, wasn't it precisely because he was thinking about Lady Tian?
And on the second day of the ninth lunar month, her son even took half a cloth and ca ho, saying that he wanted to ask Matchmaker Liu to co and talk about matchmaking.
That's right, that's right; that's not the strangest thing.
She heard that the child's appearance had changed, and there was an inexplicable crescent-shaped birthmark on his left buttock.
A crescent-shaped birthmark on the left buttock?
Li's hands trembled, almost throwing the wooden basin on the ground. Wasnt there such a mark on her son's buttocks too?
What the hell is going on here?
How could Cobbler Wang's son
It seed that the child said sothing else, burying the 826 silver coins he secretly saved under the old elm tree in the courtyard. Upon hearing this, the Cobbler Wang almost dug down the elm tree at ho but didn't even find any roots or hairs.
Under the old elm tree?
Li was stunned for a mont, then suddenly took off and ran towards ho. She was so flustered that she didn't see the won's expressions of relief.
When Li returned ho, she imdiately picked up her tools and dug under the old elm tree, only to find that she had scraped out 826 coins of silver!
Like most ordinary won these days, Li also firmly believed in the affairs of the gods and ghosts. Otherwise, she wouldnt have repeatedly ntioned the concepts of reincarnation and afterlife in court.
Now encountering such strange things, she suddenly had so thoughts in her heart, secretly thinking that it was her son who was haunted and didnt go through reincarnation, but
With such thoughts, she beca possessed again and stumbled to the house of Cobbler Wang at the end of the street.
Because there were three young children to take care of, Cobbler Wang was not detained in the governnt prison but was awaiting trial in his own ho. Of course, in addition to Cobbler Wang's family of four, there was also a governnt official responsible for guarding the courtyard.
When Li arrived, she saw Cobbler Wang standing at the entrance of the hall, slapping himself with tears streaming down his face and muttering, "Dad's useless; it's all my fault.
Li was originally anxious, but she suddenly beca timid when she saw his appearance. She hesitated at the gate and didnt even venture inside for a mont.
Mother, mother
At this mont, the noise of children ca from the hall, Don't forget the silver buried under the big elm tree; it's what I've worked hard to earn. Don't let anyone else take it!
Cobbler Wang's wife died more than two years ago; where did the mother in his son's mouth ca from?
Furthermore, the silver was buried under her houses elm tree.
This was clearly shouting at oneself!
Li imdiately beca excited and rushed into the courtyard without caring, about to run towards the hall.
Is that you?
At this mont, Cobbler Wang finally saw her and imdiately turned his red and swollen old face into a heavy one. He angrily cursed, "It's all because of you, this wicked woman, who caused my eldest son to be crazy. Even now, you even dare to co to my door
Bam bam bam!
He stomped his feet like a perforr and greeted her with open teeth and claws. "Aren't you going to die with ? I'll make you happy today.
As he spoke, he wanted to fight against Li.
The Yan guard next to him saw the situation and, fearing that sothing unexpected might happen, hurriedly grabbed him on his waist.
But Li took this opportunity and crawled into the room with a cat's waist.
She saw the eldest son of the Cobbler Wang sitting cross-legged on the Kang, with a hairstyle and eyebrows that were four or five tis similar to her son!
The son of the Cobbler Wang was not like this before!
Li was even more excited. She went up and hugged the child in her arms, reached out, and took off his pants. When she saw the familiar crescent-shaped birthmark on his buttocks, she imdiately cried out with a loud moan, "Oh, my dear!
At this mont, Cobbler Wang and the Yan attendant also chased in, and at the sight of this scene, they all felt a bit dumbfounded. Cobbler Wang was even more furious and said, Are you crazy? This is my son, why
Mother~
Just then, the son of the Cobbler Wang called out, "I want to eat the pea puree cake you made yourself."
Although this tone might seem a bit stiff and unfamiliar with the genuine appearance, how could Li still have the ti to carefully distinguish this?
Tears poured down from her face, and she hugged the child without letting go, shouting, "My dear son, I will never let you leave my side again.
Cobbler Wang was even more annoyed. He threw himself forward and shouted, Hey! You, crazy woman, hurry up and let go of my son
Wait, wait
Just as he charged forward, he was stopped by the Yan guard. He pulled him to the corner of the wall and said with a tone of expression, "Mr. Wang, your son was clearly out of breath last night, but when he regained his strength, he looked like this. Was he... Was he using a corpse to resurrect a dead soul?
What?
Cobbler Wang lost his facial color in shock and imdiately roared angrily, "That little beast has been blocking while living. Even when he dies, he harms my son! I... I... I'm going to find a wizard and expel this ghost.
As he spoke, he twisted his body and was about to rush out.
No!
Li hurriedly left the child behind and grasped Cobbler Wang in his arms, crying and shouting, "Even if the mage took him, your son wouldn't survive. I beg you, please show kindness
Spit!
Cobbler Wang spat at her all over her face and angrily said, "Who is it that keeps arguing for revenge all day? Now you're talking about being kind now?! If I don't take him, my son will die for nothing.
Li was speechless, but she refused to let go.
The commotion was raging between the two, and the Yan attendant on the side said calmly, "This is a big deal. Why don't you both take a step back? This child will still be considered the child of you two. He will still call you father and call her mother.
No way!
Cobbler Wang was annoyed and said, "She's trying to pull to death together. Why should I even split my son with her?
Li's heart was agitated and she couldn't help but blurt out, "I can just stop the suing! As long as you don't find a wizard to take him, I... I won't sue.
