Chapter 1103: An Ominous Land
Xie Qiao’s eyes dimmed. When she heard the ghoul’s words, she could not help but feel a sense of sadness.
“How did you… get forgotten by others?” Xie Qiao asked slowly.
“Thinking about it carefully, n.o.body ever remembered me.” The ghoul’s voice was very cold and light. When it hit people’s hearts, it was as if it was snowing.
“Every day, I cleaned the chicken coops, took care of the children, and worked on the stove. When I was busy with farming, I was like an ox. My head burrows in the soil and I was so tired that I couldn’t stand up straight every day. When spring comes, my husband, mother-in-law, and children wore new clothes. My body would always be dirty and old. When the harvest was good, we made chicken stew. I have never tasted that… Everyone said that I didn’t like fish and meat…
“The villagers said that I was a busy person. My neighbors praised me, saying I was a good wife and mother…
“They were living well, and I was fine. But… how could they forget about me?
“In winter, the stars fell from the sky and fell near the village. There were people who were injured. I was outside and was in a hurry to go home to look for them. I slipped and fell. I don’t know how, but I died.”
After she died, she still thought about her family, so she stayed in the world.
The village was very small, with only twenty to thirty families. Her family was unlucky. A small fireball fell and half of the house was destroyed.
No one was hurt, but the chickens and ducks raised by the family were all gone.
Her ghoul watched helplessly as the whole family cried about the chickens and ducks, cried about the house, and shouted about their fate.
The village was in chaos, and they gathered together to discuss what to do.
After one night, two nights, no one came to look for her.
The son, daughter, husband, and in-laws all had their own things to worry about. They had no idea that she had not returned for such a long time, whether something had happened to her.
Three days. Her body had been left outside for three days. In the end, the villagers found it and sent it back. Only then did they remember that she was there.
They cried a few times, then reported her death to the officers. They got a share of the money.
She had clearly fallen to her death, but she had died because of a natural disaster.
After the money came, she was buried here, but her family had moved away.
The village was too small, and the stars had smashed holes in it. It was an ominous land, and no one could continue to live there.
Her memorial tablet was supposed to be taken away, but before they left, they had to move too many things. Once again, they forgot about her.
She did not understand. She had lived such a hard life, and had given her entire life to her family. Why did no one take her seriously?
The ghoul spoke calmly, but the grief was so intense that it made people’s eyes turn red.
Her resentment was so strong that Xie Qiao could not help but suppress her emotions. Meng Jifang did not know what was going on with him. He had been fine, but gradually, he felt like crying?
He suddenly felt down, and thought of a few things that made him unhappy!
His family was a n.o.ble family, and his aunt was an imperial concubine in the palace.
Although he was young, he had never been wronged since he was small.
There were not many things in the past that made him feel wronged. One of them was that when he was young, he had offended the Crown Prince. He was beaten up by him and almost died.
It had been a long time and he had almost forgotten about it.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered it!
His eyes were red and he looked like he was about to cry, he suddenly said, “My parents never hit me, but he almost took my life! But even so, everyone sided with him. I was beaten, and I still have to kneel and apologize!”
As soon as he got emotional, he suddenly shouted. Xie Qiao was shocked, and her eyes opened wide.
