Father Ding, who was standing at the side, probably felt that he was a man. At least he mustered up a little courage and said fearfully, âYes, yes, Mulan. Back then, you were the one who said that you would save your share of rations for your brother to eat. Thatâs why you starved to death. We only said a few words to you and didnât force you.â
Gu Yundong was stunned. So there were such twists and turns.
It was obvious what kind of state Bian Mulan was in to make such a decision back then. The Ding couple had been complaining about her because she had been married for four years without getting pregnant and had to take another child with her on the way to escape. It was obvious how unpleasant the coupleâs words were.
Intellectually, Gu Yundong knew that this was Bian Mulanâs choice. But as Bian Mulanâs cousin, she really wanted to strangle the two people in front of her.
Ah Gou tugged at her from behind. Gu Yundong then continued, âYes, I was the one who voluntarily saved the rations for my younger brother. But what did I say before I died? I asked you to take good care of Yuanzhi for me. You agreed. Did you send my younger brother, whom I exchanged my life for, to the old Gu family to be abused?â
The Ding couple was speechless. What could they say? They did agree back then, but wasnât Bian Mulan going to die at that time? Could they let her die with her eyes wide open?
But neither of them dared to say it now, especially when Gu Yundongâs tears of blood started to flow down slowly.
âThe King of Hell said that my wish in this world had not been fulfilled. My obsession was too deep, and I could not be reincarnated. He asked me to come to the Human Realm to do my last thing. In the end, when I came here, I realized that you guys actually treated Yuan Zhi like this. My poor brother, his life is so bitter.â
She suddenly cried. Immediately after, a bowl that Madam Hu had placed by the windowsill suddenly fell to the ground and shattered.
Madam Hu and Father Dingâs faces turned pale. The two of them hugged each other tightly.
With a bang, a small stool at the side fell over.
Bam! The closet door opened by itself.
Ah Gou moved his fingers behind his back and quietly retracted the fishing lines that were tied to these things.
But Madam Hu was already frightened. âMulan, we didnât do it on purpose. Boohoo, it was the county magistrate who made the decision. It had nothing to do with us.â
Gu Yundongâs voice continued to sound ethereal. âI donât care. He canât stay in the Gu family. He canât stay in the Gu family. He canât stay in the Gu family.â
âAlright, alright, alright. We wonât let him stay in Old Guâs house. Weâll bring him back tomorrow morning. Really, donât come looking for us.â
Gu Yundong slowly looked at her and suddenly smiled. The moment her blood-red lips parted, she was so frightening that her hair stood on end. Even Ah Gou and Ah Zhu, who were standing beside her, had to restrain themselves with all their might to prevent their legs from moving outwards.
âThatâs what you said, hehehehe.â
The husband and wife nodded repeatedly. âWe promise to bring him out. You, you go. Just go.â
Satisfied, Gu Yundong slowly turned around.
Madam Hu was about to heave a sigh of relief when she suddenly turned around and continued to smile at her. âBy the way, thereâs something I forgot to say.â
âWhat, whatâs the matter?â
Madam Hu was trembling with fear. She only hoped that this ghost would finish speaking and leave quickly. She didnât even dare to look up at her face.
It turned out that people were like this after they died..
