471 Who’s The Second One?
Just as Liu Sanniang was about to refuse, Su Yanyu waved his hand and beat her to it. “Miss Liu, take your time to consider. I’ll go back first.”
Su Yanyu walked away quickly, so Liu Sanniang could only swallow back what she was about to say.
Chu Yan held her hand and said softly, “Let’s go home.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. When they returned home, General Black jogged over and rubbed Liu Sanniang’s palm affectionately. Chu Yan went to the kitchen.
Liu Sanniang sat down in the courtyard and stroked General Black’s head.
General Black let out a whimper.
Liu Sanniang chuckled. “It feels good, right? How strange. Why does it feel like we knew each other in our previous lives?”
The soft fur made Liu Sanniang think of something, but when she tried to catch the thought, it was gone.
In her previous life, she had been lonely and had never raised a dog. But where did this sense of familiarity come from?
General Black looked up at Liu Sanniang with black and bright eyes. He licked Liu Sanniang’s palm and leaned his head against her leg.
Liu Sanniang stroked General Black’s fur lovingly.
In July, Liu Sanniang received a letter from Madam Wei.
Liu Erlang had taken a liking to a woman called Ye Niuniu. If nothing went wrong, they would be engaged on the fifteenth of August.
Madam Wei said that Ye Niuniu was just like Liu Sanniang. She was fair and had a round face. When she smiled, she had two dimples. She was very cute and a little chubby, but she was really likable. She and Liu Erlang seemed to be fated.
Ye Niuniu came to Yong County to visit her relatives. In June, it was hot. When she went out to play, she had a heat stroke. She went out alone and fainted on the street. Liu Erlang saw her and carried her to the clinic. Ye Niuniu’s family received the news and came to the clinic. When Ye Niuniu’s brothers saw Liu Erlang, they beat him up without saying anything.
Liu Erlang was beaten up badly. Ye Niuniu’s family said that Liu Erlang had taken advantage of Ye Niuniu and beat him up before chasing him away. When Ye Niuniu woke up, she understood that her brothers had beaten her savior, so she brought her brothers over to apologize.
While Ye Niuniu was present, Liu Erlang’s face was red the entire time. Madam Wei noticed it. She also liked Ye Niuniu, and this little girl was quite likable. After the misunderstanding was cleared, Madam Wei asked them to stay for dinner.
Madam Wei knew that this marriage could work, so she asked the matchmaker to ask what the Ye family thought about it. She also asked Liu Erlang for his opinion.
Liu Erlang, who was originally picky, scratched his head and nodded in embarra.s.sment.
If the Ye family agreed, the marriage would be finalized. The matchmaker came back to say that there was a high chance of success, so Madam Wei wrote a letter to Liu Sanniang. Every word was filled with joy.
Madam Wei had two sons and a daughter, so she was most worried about her children’s marriages. Now that all her children were engaged, she was relieved. At the end of the letter, she told Liu Sanniang not to worry about them and that everything at home was fine.
Liu Sanniang read the letter a few times before carefully putting it away.
She took a pen and paper and replied to Madam Wei.
She told Madam Wei that she was doing well and told her some small things. Soon, a few pieces of paper were filled up. She took an envelope and sealed it with wax before entrusting someone to take it back to Yong County.
On the fifth day of July, Liu Sanniang was drinking sweet sugar water in the courtyard. There was a knock on the door, and General Black went to open it.
During this period of time, Su Yanyu would always bring some things over. It was obvious that he wanted to please Liu Sanniang. She wanted to refuse, but the things Su Yanyu sent her were stewed bones. General Black especially liked it…
The door opened and a person walked in. Liu Sanniang looked over and said calmly, “Master Yuan Hui.”
Yuan Hui slowly walked into the courtyard and nodded slightly. “Miss Liu.”
Yuan Hui walked to the other side of the table. “Can I sit down?”
Liu Sanniang nodded.
Yuan Hui sat down. He held a string of prayer beads in his hand and looked at Liu Sanniang quietly. After a while, Yuan Hui said, “Miss Liu, can I ask you to do something?”
Liu Sanniang looked at Yuan Hui and said calmly, “Master Yuan Hui, please speak.”
Yuan Hui looked into her eyes. “I want to ask Miss Liu to kill a demon. Miss Liu, you claim to be the True Buddha and that where there is evil, you’ll be there. If what you said is true, I believe Miss Liu will agree.”
Liu Sanniang said nothing.
Yuan Hui continued. “I’ll tell you a secret. Duke Xu is keeping a demon in his house. If you don’t believe me, you can go and find out.”
Liu Sanniang focused her attention, wanting to read Yuan Hui’s face. However, Yuan Hui seemed to have predicted that happening. He covered his face with layers of white fog, making it impossible to read.
Liu Sanniang looked away. “Won’t you regret it?”
Yuan Hui looked at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, what do you mean?”
He covered his face with fog so that Liu Sanniang would not be able to see anything. However, why did she ask him if he would regret it? What did she see and what did she know?
Hui Zhen was dead. What had Hui Zhen experienced before she died?
Yuan Hui revealed no emotions that could betray his thoughts. “Miss Liu, are you not willing to go and find out? If you are not willing, forget about what I said.”
Liu Sanniang said flatly, “I’m willing to go, as long as Master Yuan Hui won’t regret it.”
The opportunity had already appeared, so Liu Sanniang naturally had to go. She looked at Yuan Hui and said truthfully, “I saw you shed tears of regret. Have you really thought it through?”
Yuan Hui looked at Liu Sanniang coldly. The corners of his mouth twitched as he gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. If you’re determined to eliminate evil, I’ll wait and see how you do it.”
Yuan Hui stood up and left. General Black closed the door.
Liu Sanniang poured herself another cup of sugar water and drank it slowly. A faint fragrance came from the kitchen. She sniffed. Chu Yan was making pigeon soup today.
