The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate Chapter 71 - The People Here Are All Sinful

Chapter 71: The People Here Are All Sinful

Liu Sanniang looked at the black aura enveloping the village and said calmly, “Then I’ll tell you the truth. All the people here are full of sins.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai’s heart trembled.

Liu Sanniang pointed at the river. “There are many resentful souls in the river.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai almost staggered and fell.

There were more than a hundred families in River Village. If they were all sinful people, did it mean there were also hundreds of resentful souls in the river?

Wei s.h.i.+lai felt his chest getting heavier.

When they arrived at Niu Laoda’s house, Lin Zheng looked at Wei s.h.i.+lai. “Sir, we’re here.”

At this moment, it was one in the afternoon. Niu Laoda’s door was closed. Officer Zhou went forward and knocked on the door, but no one opened it.

Officer Zhou leaned against the door and said to Wei s.h.i.+lai, “Sir, there’s no one in the house.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai nodded. “They have probably gone to work.”

Perhaps it was because there was too much noise outside, so the door next to Niu Laoda opened. It was a girl. She asked them. “Are you looking for Auntie Niu? She took her daughter to the farmland. She won’t be back for at least two hours.”

Officer Zhou walked over with a smile. “Young lady, what’s your name?”

Officer Zhou liked daughters very much. He would always remember that when Zhou Mingzhu was young, she felt soft and small in his arms. No matter how he looked at her, he liked her. When he saw the little girl, the smile on his face was gentle and loving.

The little girl smiled timidly. “My name is Niu Daya.”

Officer Zhou asked. “Your name is Yaya. Are you the eldest child in the family?”

Niu Daya nodded.

Wei s.h.i.+lai walked over and squatted down. “Daya, does the daughter of your auntie next door cry a lot?”

Wei s.h.i.+lai was curious how a dead person could come back to life. He wanted to get to the bottom of this case and find out what happened.

Perhaps it was because Officer Zhou and Wei s.h.i.+lai were very kind, Niu Daya smiled and replied. “No, she is very obedient. She never cries. When I saw her last time, she even smiled at me. She’s a good girl.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai smiled. How could a normal baby not cry?

Just as he was about to ask something, Niu Daya pointed in a direction. “Look, Auntie Niu is carrying her daughter back.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai looked back and saw a woman carrying a baby in her arms and a basket on her back.

Niu Dalao’s wife had already returned, so Niu Daya returned to her house.

“Sir, is my mother-in-law still refusing to come back home?”

Wei s.h.i.+lai nodded. He looked at the woman and said, “We’re here today for something else. Can we go in and talk?”

Wei s.h.i.+lai stole a glance at the baby in the woman’s arms who was sleeping soundly.

No matter how one looked at it, it was clearly a living baby. Wei s.h.i.+lai looked at Liu Sanniang. Liu Sanniang was also looking at the baby girl. As if having sensed the presence of strangers, the child opened her eyes and looked at Liu Sanniang. She smiled at Liu Sanniang and opened her mouth, revealing his toothless gums. She was very cute.

The woman smiled and looked at the child gently. “Come in. My daughter likes you all very much. She keeps smiling.”

The woman opened the door and invited Liu Sanniang and the others in.

The courtyard was small but clean and neat. The woman put down the basket on her back, then went into the house and brought out a few stools. “We can talk here. I’ll listen as I work.”

Liu Sanniang looked at the woman. Her legs were uneven, as if she was injured.

The woman took a stool and sat down. She began to work on the pigweed she had brought back and chopped it up with a kitchen knife. Her daughter was in the cradle, quiet. She was not asleep. From time to time, she would giggle.

Wei s.h.i.+lai looked at Liu Sanniang. Liu Sanniang had walked upto the woman’s side and was looking at the child.

This two-month-old baby seemed to like Liu Sanniang very much and kept smiling at her.

Even the woman stopped what she was doing. “Young lady, what’s your name? My daughter likes you very much.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “My name is Sanniang.”

The woman smiled. “What a nice name.”

Liu Sanniang looked at the woman. “Can I touch her?”

The woman hesitated, reluctant.

However, the child had already stretched out her hand and giggled, as if she wanted Liu Sanniang to hug her.

The woman nodded reluctantly. “My daughter doesn’t like strangers, but she seems to like you. You can touch her little hand. If she cries, you can’t hug her.”

Liu Sanniang nodded. She reached out and held the child’s hand.

Seeing Liu Sanniang in such close contact with a child who was supposed to be dead, Wei s.h.i.+lai was shocked.

Officer Zhou was nervous. “Miss Liu.”

Lin Zheng was also worried. His hand was already on his sword. If anything strange happened, he would immediately draw his sword!

However, nothing happened.

Liu Sanniang smiled. “I know, I know everything.”

Hearing what Liu Sanniang said, the woman was instantly alert. She stood up and pushed Liu Sanniang away. “What are you mumbling about?”

The woman was like a hen protecting its chick, aggressive.

Liu Sanniang looked straight at the woman. “Why did you tell the officials about the crimes your husband committed?”

Liu Sanniang grabbed the child’s hand. She could feel the anger and grievance which the child was transmitting.

The fierceness of a father, the cowardice of a mother, and the unwillingness to die.

As soon as Liu Sanniang finished speaking, the woman’s pupils constricted and she revealed a terrified expression. Then, as if she had gone crazy, she rushed towards Liu Sanniang and tried to chase her away.

Wei s.h.i.+lai shouted. “Stop!”

The woman was very fast, and her reaction was unexpected. They thought that Liu Sanniang would be hit by the woman, but as soon as Liu Sanniang reached out and grabbed the woman’s wrist, her body went weak and she knelt in front of Liu Sanniang.
