Chapter 97: Karma

No one had expected things to turn out this way.

Even Liu Ju’er opened her mouth in shock.

Liu Sanniang had been watching from a distance. When she saw Granny Zhou performing the ritual, she knew that Granny Zhou was just acting.

Liu Sanniang was also gambling.

This was her using her power to summon the deceased’s spirit. Yang Qingshan was an orphan, so his parents would definitely be worried. Even if they died, there would be a wisp of spiritual sense left behind to protect him.

While Granny Zhou and Madam Zhou were doing the ritual, that wisp of spiritual sense was still present. Seeing that Granny Zhou and Madam Zhou were colluding to deceive Yang Qingshan, that wisp of spiritual sense was clearly furious.

Although it was only a shred of her spiritual sense, the deceased knew everything. At the beginning, the deceased was looking forward to what Granny Zhou would do.

In the end, it turned out that Granny Zhou was a liar.

Seeing Liu Ju’er being teased and wronged, Yang Qingshan’s mother was furious. Just as she was about to explode with anger, a force helped her and pushed her into Granny Zhou’s body. Yang Qingshan’s mother immediately occupied Granny Zhou’s body.

Looking at Madam Zhou, she was extremely angry. She walked over and grabbed Madam Zhou’s hair, pulling her back a few steps.

“Granny Zhou, what are you doing? Let go of me.”

Madam Zhou’s face twisted in pain. She was caught off guard by this change. Naturally, she did not know that Granny Zhou had been possessed by Yang Qingshan’s mother.

Granny Zhou looked extremely angry. She grabbed Madam Zhou’s hair and turned her around. She raised her hand and slapped her. “Are you sure I’m still Granny Zhou?”

......

Madam Zhou’s hair stood on end. She was in pain and also afraid at the same time. Granny Zhou was someone who dealt with death all year round. She didn’t seem to be acting anymore. Madam Zhou suddenly thought of a possibility.

She shuddered.

Granny Zhou sneered and slapped her again. “Do you know who I am?”

She used a lot of strength and plucked off a handful of her hair.

Yang Qingshan’s deceased parents had never really gone away. They were worried about their son and lingered around him.

Although Yang Qingshan grew up poor, he had survived till adulthood nonetheless. Many times, it was his deceased parents who had protected him. How could they not know how their son was doing?

Knowing that their son was finally getting married, they were both relieved.

Initially, they thought that they would visit their son in his dream after he got married. However, they did not expect that Madam Zhou would invite a witch over. They missed their son too much and were waiting to be summoned back. In the end, Granny Zhou was just a liar and knew nothing.

How could Mrs. Yang not be angry? Liu Sanniang helped her possess Granny Zhou’s body to punish and expose Madam Zhou.

When Madam Zhou saw Granny Zhou’s expression, she was so frightened that her soul almost left her body. There were many things in this world that people had to believe. She did not dare to provoke Mrs. Yang, who was possessing Granny Zhou.

Mrs. Yang shocked Madam Zhou and all the villagers from Yang Village. However, she bowed respectfully and said to the villagers, “Thank you for taking care of my son. I will never forget your kindness.”

Although she looked like Granny Zhou, her tone was exactly the same as Yang Qingshan’s mother. Even though she had passed away many years ago, the villagers could still remember her.

They felt complicated. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Yang. It’s our responsibility to take care of children in our village.”

Mrs. Yang stood up. “Thank you. My time is limited. Can you give us some space?”

The villagers agreed. “Okay, okay, okay.”

Everyone went home and stopped watching.

Madam Zhou’s legs went weak. There was no one around, and she could not help but tremble. When Mrs. Yang was looking at her with a gloomy gaze, Madam Zhou almost fainted.

“Mother, are you my mother?”

Yang Qingshan choked with emotion.

Liu Ju’er also looked at Granny Zhou worriedly. To be honest, she was shocked when Granny Zhou slapped Madam Zhou on the face, but for some reason, she felt happy. Liu Ju’er believed that Yang Qingshan’s mother had taken possession of Granny Zhou, because if she didn’t, she wouldn’t have slapped Madam Zhou.

Liu Ju’er called Mrs. Yang softly. “Mother-in-law, is that you?”

Mrs. Yang looked at Liu Ju’er and smiled gently. “It’s me. Let’s talk inside.”

“Take down the lanterns.”

Mrs. Yang said coldly to Madam Zhou.

Madam Zhou trembled as she went to take off the lanterns. She wanted to run, but her legs could not move at all. For some reason, she felt as if someone was following her around and blowing cold air at her neck.

At the thought of Granny Zhou being possessed, Madam Zhou was so afraid that she did not want to stay outside anymore.

They entered the house.

Yang Qingshan knelt down. “Mother, I’ll kowtow to you.”

This time, he kowtowed sincerely.

Liu Ju’er also knelt down. “Mother-in-law…”

Mrs. Yang did not let Liu Ju’er kowtow and helped Yang Qingshan and Liu Ju’er up.

“Mother, how did you get back?”

Yang Qingshan was extremely puzzled. At this moment, he finally felt his mother’s presence. He did not feel it just now when Madam Zhou and Granny Zhou were putting on an act.

Mrs. Yang stroked Yang Qingshan’s hair. “Silly child, Mother and Father have always been by your side. You were so young, so how can we leave you alone? But now that you have a family, we are relieved.”

Yang Qingshan’s eyes turned red. “Mother, when I was sick in the past, herbs would always appear in my hands. I’d be fine after eating them. Was it all from you?”

Mrs. Yang nodded. “It was from me. I was worried about you. Now, you have a family and someone else will take care of you.”

Mrs. Yang looked at Liu Ju’er, who was a little nervous. After all, this was her real mother-in-law who was dead.
