Chapter 385 Ghost Marriage
"Stop howling, get them home right away."
When the great-uncle saw his grandson wake up, his soul returned with him.
"Er'er, go to town and ask Old Wu to come over and give Uncle Pinghai some herbal medicine. Run fast..."
As soon as Xu Yiyi finished speaking, Mao Mao's eyes darted around.
"Sister Yi, I can run fast and I'm strong. I'll help Er'er row the boat."
Xu Yi nodded, and the two quickly ran ashore from the mudflats.
Several men from the clan helped carry the person back, and most of the people dispersed immediately.
Xiao Jun's mother was still unwilling to give up and sent Xu Yiyi to rescue the person.
“Yi Yi, be careful. When I tried to save someone before, he didn’t care. He just pulled the person off my back. When I tried to save someone like you, he slandered me.”
Ah was furious. If she were truly worried about her daughter, why would she stop him?
"Now you're worried? Where were you before?"
Everyone is completely dead.
Ah Da rolled his eyes.
The woman ignored her and dragged Xu Yiyi to Xiao Jun's side.
She sighed.
He bent over and continued the action he had been doing, waiting for her to blow air into Xiao Jun's mouth.
This made Xu Yiyi laugh in exasperation.
"That won't do."
The woman reacted as if facing a formidable enemy, waving her hands repeatedly and retreating.
"This person isn't even breathing, and you still want me to blow air into her mouth? What if I breathe the last breath of life into her?"
Xu Yiyi has truly had her eyes opened today.
If she hadn't seen that the woman's eyes were still red, she would have thought that even her crying just now was fake.
"Besides, I don't understand that blowing thing you mentioned either. I just didn't do it well, and it wouldn't be good if I made things worse..."
The woman noticed that Xu Yiyi's expression was off and quickly offered an explanation.
"You're the only one who knows this method. You blow on it..."
The woman tried to persuade her.
"See what I told you? My good intentions were taken for granted. In my opinion, it's better that Xiao Jun is gone."
With a mother like that, even more outrageous things are bound to happen when she gets older.
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
The woman glared fiercely at Ah Da.
Xu Yiyi stood up helplessly, "Please accept my condolences!"
After saying that, he lifted his leg and walked towards the shore.
When I returned to the spot where I had caught my catch, it was completely empty.
It seems that one of my uncles or elders helped carry it back.
The woman's screams rang out behind her. Xu Yiyi had just reached the shore when she saw her husband hurrying towards her.
His face still showed obvious signs of sleepiness; judging from his appearance, he had probably just gotten out of bed.
……
"You idiot, I told you not to bring Xiao Jun out again, but you've gone against my wishes..."
The man cursed, and Xu Yiyi turned around curiously to look.
The woman was kicked by the man.
"That's not my fault. Xiaojun insisted on coming out with me. I thought I had been out before and nothing would happen."
The women all felt wronged.
"What now? The money's already been taken, and the Lin family is coming to pick her up in a few days. How am I supposed to find another girl this old..."
The man felt a headache coming on. Looking at Xiao Jun on the ground, he kicked her again, unwilling to give up.
There's still no movement at all.
"How about we return the money?"
The woman suggested.
Upon hearing this, the man immediately let out a cold laugh.
"Pay back the money? Where would you get the money to pay back? Your son has already spent all twenty taels of silver..."
Enraged, the man couldn't help but slap him again.
The woman was probably used to being beaten, because she didn't react at all.
Xu Yiyi scrutinized the scene from the shore, but she couldn't hear what they were saying or see their mouths.
But I still had some doubts.
The woman suddenly stood up, as if she had just thought of something.
His words and actions became agitated.
“I’ve heard that some people specialize in arranging ghost marriages. It must be because someone in the family has a child who died before marriage and needs this.”
The man's expression turned somewhat strange upon hearing this.
They raised their daughter for eleven or twelve years, and then they dragged her into a ghost marriage for money.
I felt a little uneasy; this was really unethical.
"She's still our daughter..."
The man hesitated, but the woman couldn't care less.
“Precisely because she was our daughter, she should contribute to this family. Since she’s already dead, she should do one last thing for her brother.”
The woman had convinced herself, and the man no longer hesitated.
After discussing it, the two agreed that this method was feasible.
The weight on my heart has finally been lifted.
"Take her back first and clean her properly."
The man looked down at Xiao Jun and gave the order.
"me……"
The woman seemed somewhat disgusted.
"If it wasn't you, then who else could it be but me? Send it back right away."
After saying that, the man turned and left.
Xu Yiyi watched as the two seemed to have reached some kind of agreement, and walked home with some doubt in her eyes.
