162 Paying Respects
When they arrived, Lin Xiaoyue realized that someone was here.
“Who has come to pay their respects to your father?” Liu Shi asked in confusion.
Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao cleaned up the dead branches beside the tomb together. They were also very confused.
“Old Master Lin. He came with First Uncle Lin and Second Uncle Lin. You guys don’t know?” A villager was busy working in the field not far away. He responded when he heard Liu Shi’s words.
He heard about what happened at the Lin family when he went back for lunch.
Could it be that Third Uncle Lin was really haunting them and causing trouble?
He only dared to come here in broad daylight. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come.
The Lin family just left in the morning, and the Liu family came again in the afternoon. Could there really be something wrong?
Lin Xiaoyue noticed the expressions of her mother and the villagers.
“Thank you for telling us, Uncle Xiang. We really didn’t know about this.” Lin Xiaoyue greeted him with a smile.
“We’re here to pay our respects to my father. We’re here to tell him that we’ve moved to a new house and that he can rest in peace.”
“As for my grandfather and the others…”
“Hehe, he probably felt guilty. That’s why he came here to burn some paper offerings for peace of mind.” She didn’t believe in the supernatural.
“Yue’er…” Liu Shi looked at the villagers and then at Lin Xiaoyue. She deliberately used a reproachful tone, but she was actually helping Lin Xiaoyue.
“I’m not wrong. I’ve heard about what happened to the Lin family last night. It was clearly grandma and aunt who didn’t watch their steps and tripped over a stone. How can they blame it on father?”
“If father really came back as a spirit, would he watch us get bullied so miserably before this?”
The villagers thought about it and felt that Lin Xiaoyue’s words made sense.
“Yue’er, I want to ask you something, I hope you don’t mind.”
“Please go ahead,” Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
“There was a rumor in the village that something happened to you and you went to see your father. You even received blessings from the King of h.e.l.l and you recovered. Is it true?” The villager asked curiously.
It was a legend in the village.
This little girl became smart just like that. She even learned how to hunt in a short time. Later, she dug up some wild ginseng in the mountains and exchanged it for a large sum of money to build a big house.
Oh, and he heard that she invented a snack…what was it called again? Many said it tasted good.
Liu Shi looked at Lin Xiaoyue nervously, but she saw her daughter smiling gently.
“Hehe, there’s no such thing as blessings from the King of h.e.l.l. When I woke up, my mother and the others were thanking my father and the King of h.e.l.l for their blessings. I was confused. I wasn’t completely clear-headed at the time, so I didn’t refute it.”
“Later on, when I was completely sober, the news had already spread.”
“After I woke up, I was worried, so I went to the town’s clinic. The doctor said that it was a blessing in disguise. When I was young, I knocked my head which caused a blood clot in my brain and affected my development. The last time my grandma came to my house to rob us, she pushed me and I knocked my head on the ground, which just happened to disperse the blood clot.”
“That’s how I am able to think clearly now.”
He was surprised, and his expression relaxed a little.
“So that’s how it is,” he muttered.
“Yes, I was fortunate. I almost lost my life when my grandmother pushed me. The doctor said that if it wasn’t for the blood clot, I would have definitely died,” Lin Xiaoyue continued.
He sighed.
“You’re really lucky.”
