Thanks for the invitation: In ancient times, people shared children

Chapter 238

Zhang Yuanwai's second daughter, Xiaomei, glanced at the child across the railing with a cold expression and her words were still harsh:

"What are you looking at? Have you ever seen anyone breaking the law?"

Child: “Not often.”

"It's blind, it's everywhere."

Xiaomei snorted coldly and turned her head away, ignoring her.

The child looked around and said, "I don't know anyone here. What did you do wrong?"

The child wanted to go up and ask.

An Xi grabbed her and quickly pulled her away, followed by Xiao Mei's arrogant voice: "None of your business!"

Child:……

Okay, it's really none of her business.

The child being pulled away: "Whatever you want to say, I don't want to hear it! You're full of bullshit!"

"Jump on your face..."

Even from a distance, they still started arguing, and the other prisoners who heard it became excited and started shouting and yelling along with them.

An Xi held his forehead and said: What you fear will come true.

She grabbed the child's clothes by the back and quickened her pace, leaving the noise and the jailer's scolding behind her.

The child had shut up a long time ago, but it was obvious that she had not yet had enough of her quarrel.

An Xi: "You, what's the point of arguing with her? She will die in a few months."

"Huh?" The child looked up in surprise. "Why? Did she kill Xu Cong?"

"That's what she said in her confession." An Xi said this ambiguously, and then sighed deeply.

"I speculate that the family conspired to commit murder, but the evidence is insufficient, and it's not a good idea to keep them locked up. If no one changes their story, the blame will fall solely on her, and she'll naturally be dead."

"What the hell is going on?"

The more the child listened, the more confused he became.

An Xi smiled bitterly and said, "I still want to know what's going on."

This story starts with Zhu An... and those two ghosts.

After the child fainted, help arrived and they subdued the two ghosts together using some rather drastic measures and found out some things.

These three ghosts were naturally human beings before.

A scholar, a businessman, and a farmer.

Originally, there was no connection between them, but they married the same woman one after another.

This woman was quite famous among them. She was beautiful and virtuous. Her family was not rich, but just barely making ends meet. They were slightly better off than the poor, but much worse than the wealthy. Her family had some fertile land and property, and she loved her daughter so much that she was willing to divide the family property into two parts, half to be inherited by her son and the other half to be given to her daughter as a dowry.

This kind of thing is very rare. Whether out of greed, lust for beauty, or sincere desire to marry her, there are many people who like her. The scholar, also known as the faceless ghost Zhu An, is one of them. Compared with others, he does not have much advantage because his parents were dead at that time. Although he is a scholar, he does not work and is unwilling to teach children like other scholars. He spends his days eating up all the food he has saved, calling it mourning for his parents. He has never moved to the grave to build a thatched house to live in.

But he became famous at a young age after all. Everyone said that if he had not been delayed by the funeral, he would have passed the imperial examination long ago. He has no parents, so he can be the head of the family once he gets married. After a few years, he will probably become the lady or the wife. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Moreover, Zhu An's appearance was really outstanding, and the girl fell in love with him at first sight. Although it was the parents' order and the matchmaker's words, any parent who loved their children would not ask their children's opinions on such a big matter as marriage.

All in all, it turned out to be a good thing.

The woman married Zhu An with a large dowry, and she supported his studies, washed his clothes, cooked for him, and worked on the farm for him. However, he just couldn't pass the exam. He changed several teachers, bought many books, and spent all day studying or attending poetry gatherings and banquets, but it was all in vain.

The family fortune gradually declined, but he still felt that his teacher was not good enough, the books were not good enough, the people he met were not good enough, and the wife he married was not useful enough.

Finally, the woman could no longer bear it and killed him. She chopped her useless body into meat sauce, ground her bones into powder and threw them into the wilderness. She cut off her face, which she was proud of, and threw her head into the water.

She lost her husband and had to go home, but her parents were also dead, and her brother and sister-in-law could not tolerate her, so they found a good marriage for her.

He is the ugly businessman with a fat but hollow belly and a face but no head.

He was attracted by her beauty and was willing to spend a lot of money to hire her as his second wife.

The woman had already become disillusioned with the man and thought that having money was fine even without love, so she got married. However, she was not someone who could easily accept that.

The businessman claimed that he used a little trick and it only took a while for the woman to fall in love with him. He turned love into hate and killed her. He was simply a madman.

An Xi said that the woman was cheated again and was probably too sad, so she did the same thing to the merchant's extra body, leaving only the face and an empty cavity.

She wanted to show the businessman what her face looked like and what right he had to dislike her for getting older.

I also want to see if his heart is rotten and why he is so black-hearted.

She was lucky, smart and cautious, and no one suspected her this time.

But she didn't get any benefits. The merchant's relatives came to fight for the family property. Since she had no children, she naturally couldn't win. She could only hide some private money and return home again.

Her brother and sister-in-law still didn't tolerate her.

But it is not easy to get married again. Her two husbands have died and everyone says she is unlucky.

So... the little farmer got it for free.

This person was quite down-to-earth at the beginning, and the farmer was also very nice to her. The two of them didn't have much affection for each other, but they got along fine.

Until the woman gave birth to a girl, he changed a little, but the woman was no longer alone, so she chose to be patient.

His patience only resulted in his behavior becoming more severe. He wanted to throw the second child to death, so the woman killed him too.

This time she was in such a hurry that she only had time to cut off her limbs before she fled with her two daughters.

I don't know why, maybe people don't want to believe that a woman has the ability and courage to kill three men, or maybe they want to excuse her.

Anyway, the story of a monster eating people spread quietly, and the more it spread, the more distorted it became.

Everyone said that this woman had left with the monster.

But in fact, she just escaped. The government issued a warrant to arrest her, but she was never found. The merchants and farmers also said they didn't know.

"It disappeared in the blink of an eye. There must be a monster there."

That's what they said.

They even admitted that they wanted revenge, but the woman had an amulet on her.

An Xi said that the amulet was a relic of her first husband, Zhu An, and it was indeed a gift from a master and was very useful.

An Xi knew so much because the woman was later caught and beheaded long ago, but these three ghosts didn't know about it. They turned into this appearance and hated her in their hearts, so even after so many years, they still wanted to take revenge on her.

They came here recently and met Xu Cong.

It's strange. They themselves were killed by women, but they still looked down on Xu Cong, who was also killed by a woman. They ate her as soon as they met her. It was a pity that they had this ability.

After eating other ghosts, you can at least know a little about his life.

Only then did An Xi make up his mind to arrest Mr. Zhang and his family.

According to these two ghosts...
