Chapter 37: The Dissolute Lady (9) You can’t do the corpse stacking thing…

Liu Binghai slept in the thatched hut for three days. When he woke up three days later, He Chuanxiong and Xiao Zhi, who had been dozing off, were sitting on the floor beside the bed.

It’s not necessary to sleep for three days.

She just didn't want to wake up.

No matter how difficult life was in the past, she always faced it positively. But in this life, she didn't know why, but she always felt so tired in her heart, and occasionally had some thoughts of escaping.

I woke up after sleeping for half the night on the first day, and then fell asleep again with my head tilted.

This sleep lasted for three days.

The chicken at the door noticed that she was awake at a glance, its eyes lit up, and it walked over to her with a click.

Unexpectedly, the first thing to greet her when she woke up was a chicken.

Liu Binghai: "Being a security guard must be very hard."

The cockscomb waved, looking proud and arrogant.

This one sentence woke up both He Chuanxiong and Xiao Zhi.

Xiao Zhi wiped his eyes and said, "Hey, Sister Yun, you're awake."

He Chuanxiong took her temperature and found that the fever had subsided, but she looked a little unwell.

Maybe it's because I'm in a bad mood?

Well, no matter how unhappy I am, I can just sleep for a few days, so I asked, "Do you still want to sleep?"

Liu Binghai laughed and said, "If you sleep any longer, you'll turn into a piglet."

He Chuanxiong: "Don't be afraid. Sleep for 49 days and you can become a spirit."

She has no interest in cultivating to become a spirit.

She is only interested in making money.

"Am I okay now?" asked Liu Binghai.

"Basically nothing, what's wrong?"

"Could you please get me a glass of water?"

Xiaozhi quickly took a glass of water and handed it to her mouth.

After drinking water, the garbage in the intestines is flushed away and life begins a new way.

She still had to think about the money.

…

This life is different from the previous ones.

In her previous life, although she had a square face, she was still able to sell fruits to earn some extra money. But in this life, she was so unlucky that no one would dare to buy anything she sold.

However, making money by taking advantage of bad luck is not bad.

hehe.

Although I don’t know when I can completely erase Zhang Ruochen’s face from my mind, it’s always right to try hard to forget it.

Someone once said that the best way to forget an old love is to find a new one.

But she thinks that the best way to forget her old love is to make money...

——

The Drift Ice Sea is starting to take business again.

This time the sign was more eye-catching: sweeping graves on behalf of others, breaking off engagements, burning paper... She accepted all the unlucky tasks that no one was willing to take on, and added one more item: delivering meals from the town brigade.

The town brigade is a brigade that does manual labor in the town. It is located in a somewhat remote area. Workers who work there always complain about not having enough food to eat. They have to live on a few dry buns every day, which is very difficult.

The place is remote and no one wants to take this job.

Liu Binghai took over the task.

As soon as the sign was put up, the townspeople gathered around it again.

That day, the news that she was ridiculed for helping the Zhao family to break off an engagement had spread throughout the town.

The Li family felt wronged and were not in a good mood towards both the Zhao family and Liu Binghai. The town was small and there were many people who heard gossip through the walls. The matter spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred.

I didn't expect her to accept such an unlucky thing? She really has no shame.

Passing by the market, the old man from the Sun family, who was buying sugar-roasted chestnuts, said, "Young lady, if you do too many unlucky things, you will lose your fortune."

This old man looked kind and spoke politely. With Liu Binghai's status, she shouldn't be called a girl anymore.

But you can't just call her an "abandoned woman".

Liu Bing Haidao: "How can it harm one's fortune to help others eliminate disasters and take on bad luck?"

The old man was speechless after hearing this.

After the sign was put up, within a few days, she really took on several businesses, all of which were jobs of burning paper at the cemetery in the back mountain.

After doing this many times, she became more adept at it. In her eyes, all the wolves, ghosts, and snakes were just cats and dogs.

The little mole keeps following her, which is really a headache.

That day, she took on another job of sweeping the graves of a villager.

This banker is a bit strange. Every year when he visits his ancestors' graves, he buries a turtle in the ground. The turtle must be a little turtle that died less than a year after it was born.

There was nothing unlucky about this matter itself. I don’t know if it was because the name “A thousand-year-old turtle lives for ten thousand years” was not a good one, so they sent her here.

These little turtles that died prematurely were also very hard to find, so Liu Binghai picked them up with a white cloth and buried them in front of the cemetery.

According to the rules of the host family, you have to recite a few strange spells first.

After she finished reading, she took the little turtle out and buried it in the ground. Just then she saw the little mole circling behind her butt again.

Could it be that he has fallen in love with her?

She has no interest in relationships between older and younger men.

"Aren't you tired of chasing me every day?" Liu Binghai said lightly without looking back.

Little Mole caught up and squatted beside her, saying seriously, "Sister, why do you always do these unlucky things? It would be better for you to follow my brother Zhan. There you won't have to worry about food and clothing. Isn't it better than working hard on your own?"

The little mole has a sincere look on his face.

Liu Binghai: "I make money on my own and don't rely on you, Brother Zhan."

Little Mole: "But you two were very close in the past."

Liu Binghai: "You also said that it is the past, so it is all in the past."

Xiao Zhi looked at her seriously, as if he couldn't see through her at all. The sleeves of her tattered clothes were one long and one short, with the long part lying on the ground, covered in dust.

"Sister, you look weird. Where are you from?"

Oh?

This question...

She herself didn't have the answer.

Where did she come from? It was such a long time ago, so long ago that it seemed like a lifetime ago.

"How strange?" asked Liu Binghai.

Xiao Mole held her face in her hands. "I'm a loner, all alone, not afraid of ghosts or wolves. Sister, are you a devil or an angel?"

Liu Binghai dug a deeper pit and buried the little turtle in the soil: "It's not a demon or an angel, just an abandoned wanderer."

Xiao Zhi's eyelids drooped, "Don't say that. In Brother Zhan's eyes, my sister is perfect."

"But he's nothing to me."

Little Mole… "Sister is serious."

"If you want to mention him again, you don't have to come to me."

After she finished speaking, the little turtle was buried. She filled it with soil and pressed it down more firmly.

Seeing her indifferent attitude towards Brother Zhan, Xiao Zhi didn't say anything else. He just glanced at the tombstone and suddenly seemed to remember something. He asked, "Sister, is the host this time the Zhuang family?"

Liu Binghai glanced at him sideways.

This guy knows everything.

She didn't say anything, just waited for him to speak.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Xiao Zhi knew it must be the banker. His eyebrows suddenly became anxious and he said angrily, "Sister, why did you take on his family's business? This banker is very harmful and does some immoral and harmful things. Sister, I'm afraid it will be miserable."

"What's the matter?" Liu Binghai became curious.

Burying a turtle cannot possibly cause a storm.

She has seen wolves before.

Seeing that she didn't believe him, Xiao Zhi hurriedly said, "Sister, you know, there are turtles everywhere, no one in the world should touch Xiao Xiao Turtle."

Where did this mnemonic come from? I've never heard of it.

"What's wrong with that, little turtle?"

Little Mole said seriously, "Sister, you don't know. The Zhuang family's ancestors raised turtles. To ensure the prosperity of the business, they would bury a small, dead turtle every year as a companion to their ancestors. They say it's a dead turtle, but where do so many of them come from? They killed themselves. Turtles are spiritual, don't you know that, sister?"

Turtles, hedgehogs, foxes, snakes...very spiritual animals.

"These little turtles were killed, and they didn't dare to bury them themselves, so they asked others to do it. Every time someone finished burying them, they would get some strange disease. Sister, your body can't withstand such torture. Besides, is the silver they gave you worth all this trouble?"

Liu Binghai said nothing.

Most people who ask others to do things at the cemetery have some reasons that are difficult to talk about, and she had expected that there would be some situations.

"It's okay." She said lightly.

Xiao Mole raised her eyebrows, "Sister, you have to think it through!"

This is a joke. Now that the money has been taken and the job has been done, what else is there to think about?

But she was a little curious, "Why can the little turtle ensure their business is prosperous?"

Little Mole said, "I don't know the details, but I heard that people in this line of work have to use the souls of small turtles to raise their children. Is that considered raising ghosts and gods?"

What greed.

This banker, as Xiaozhi said, was indeed a turtle-raising businessman. He buried a small turtle every year to commemorate his ancestors and ensure the prosperity of his family business.

There are rumors that the banker's ancestor is the reincarnation of a turtle, and some say that the ancestor is a turtle that has cultivated into a spirit. There are all kinds of rumors, and the truth is unknown.

In short, since you have taken on this unlucky business, you will have to bear the bad consequences that will come later.

Taking money to help others eliminate disasters, Liu Binghai has no complaints.

After burying the little turtle, Liu Binghai turned around and walked back, thinking that he had finished his work for the master.

The little mole kept following her.

He wondered why his sister seemed fearless, but when she fell ill and fell asleep that day, she looked helpless and fragile.

He clearly needs care, but he pretends to be strong.

"Sister." Xiao Zhi caught up with Liu Binghai, "Next time you take on an errand, call me and I'll help you sort it out."

Xiaozhi is a beggar and is very familiar to people in the town.

I basically know everything about every family.

Some bad luck things are just bad luck, but some bad luck things may cost you half your life.

We must not let Sister Yun take on any task casually.

Liu Binghai turned around and looked at him, "Why are you so nice to me?"

If this is for your brother Zhan, please let me fend for myself.

Little Mole blinked: "Sister is pretty."

Well, that's an honest reason.

Three days after burying the little turtle, Liu Binghai fell ill.

It's a strange disease that's a bit like being possessed by evil spirits. The whole body feels cold, but the head is hot as fire, and evil air with a strange smell rolls out of the nostrils.

He Chuanxiong checked her pulse and was shocked. He said, "Evil energy has entered the body."

Traditional Chinese medicine and Taoism have a close relationship. It is said that the pulse of the middle finger can determine whether there is something unclean on the body.

Liu Binghai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Just go in, it's your duty."

Only when her illness gets out will the dealer know that she has really done her job well.

Only then can her title of "ambassador of bad luck" be confirmed.

From now on, you won’t have to worry about having no business to do.

He Chuanxiong thought she was just fooling around.

How much money is missing? I have to pay it off with my illness.

"How much silver do you need? I'll lend it to you. There's no rush to pay it back."

Liu Binghai said calmly, "It's not for the money."

He Chuanxiong felt that he couldn't see through this woman. She traded her life for money, but she said it was not for the money.

Why is that?

Liu Binghai wiped the sweat from his forehead again.

Yes, not for the money.

By enduring this kind of suffering, I can repay the debt I owe to Zhang Ruochen.

Even though she had her own reasons, she did secretly use contraception and had private exchanges with other men, which was considered as her betrayal of him first. No matter how angry he was, it was not excessive.

She wanted to end this relationship, and from now on, everything would be wiped clean, and they would owe each other nothing and have no connection anymore.

That was the smooth life she wanted.

As for the long-cherished wish of becoming an ancestor...it can be put off until later.

Peace of mind is your home.

…

The news of Liu Binghai's evil spirit entering his body spread again. Zhang Ruochen had no idea what this woman was thinking.

In the beginning, she was also favored by him and spoiled in every way.

After all, she was once his woman and the eldest lady in his village!

But now he has fallen into such a job.

Are you trying to make him feel upset on purpose?

He stood in the yard with a sullen face, not saying a word. Feng Yunyan handed the child to Liu Ma and walked slowly to Zhang Ruochen.

She knew what he was thinking.

These days, although he said he wanted to make her his wife, he stared at the sky in a daze every day. She knew he was thinking about that woman.

She has been patient and waited a lot, but when will these days end?

She has left and can never come back. Now she is the only one who stays with him, isn't she?

"Master." Seeing Zhang Ruochen in a daze again, Feng Yunyan asked, "Are you still thinking about Sister Xin'er?"

These days, rumors about the former wife of the Zhuang family have spread throughout the town.

The owner of the manor was angry. On the one hand, he was angry that she had become so depraved. On the other hand, he was probably also angry that she had ruined the reputation of the manor.

After all, it's not something pleasant to hear.

However, she was no longer a member of the village, and the divorce letter that day had already severed this relationship.

Therefore, it is not right to say that she has ruined the reputation of the village.

In the end, it's still awkward.

Therefore, the owner of the manor probably feels uncomfortable as well.

I just don’t know how much of this awkwardness is anger, and how much is...heartache?

Feng Yunyan looked at Zhang Ruochen tenderly, her watery eyes showing a hint of forbearance and heartache.

Zhang Ruochen was distracted for a moment, looking at Yunyan beside him.

I always feel guilty towards her.

That day, in order to spite Yun'er, he took her into the village, but he never gave her much care.

From now on, she will be his only one.

"No." After a long while, he said to her in a deep voice, "I'm thinking about us."

Miss us?

Feng Yunyan's eyes lit up, "But is it true?"

Is that true?

Zhang Ruochen put his arm around her shoulders and said, "From now on, you will be my only one. Please don't let me down."

There were tears in Feng Yunyan's eyes, and the tears gathered into light.

Nestled in the owner's arms, she felt extremely warm and secure.

only.

She finally became her only one.

But Liu Binghai is no longer interested in the owner's "only" thing.

She just wants to make money now...

If you do too many bad things, you should always change your taste.

She took the job of delivering meals for the town brigade.

You won’t earn much money from this job, but you can get to know a lot of merchants, and getting to know merchants will give you the opportunity to open up new continents.

There was a bunch of old-fashioned people in the team who ate dry steamed buns every day. Liu Binghai and the mayor agreed to deliver three meals a day to these bald monks, with three dishes a day in a big pot, one meat and two vegetables. As for the silver, it was decided by the mayor.

The monks in the team did not think that the wife of the banker was unlucky. Having a proper meal was better than eating dry bread.

But this job is hard. I have to push a cart to the town to deliver meals three times a day. The weather is hot and I feel so tired at the end of the day that my back and waist ache.

Liu Binghai simply took on the job of delivering meals to a few families. He drove one sheep and two sheep at a time. Every day, he pushed a flat cart to deliver meals to every household in the town. His skirt was soaked with sweat, and he lost weight in a few days.

They all said that the lady in the village fought hard, she must be holding a grudge against the owner of the village and didn't want to leave him with a good reputation.

She found it ridiculous. She did her own job and earned her own money. What did it have to do with his Zhang Tea House?

But it is really hard for a woman to run around like this every day.

Little Mole often comes to help.

It's said to be helping, but it looks more like he's just trying to get a meal. After all, he's just a little beggar, and he doesn't have enough oil and water on weekdays. With the big pot of rice, he can fill his stomach.

These days are hard, but I get used to them after a while.

One day, Liu Binghai delivered meals to the town brigade as usual, and then went to deliver meals to Sunjia Ceramics Building.

The boss thought she came a little late and the food was a little cold, so he didn't want to pay for it.

Liu Bing Haidao said, "These are all new, just a little cold. You can just warm them up."

The boss was a thin, sturdy man without a beard, but he glared at me and said, "I'm just heating it up, what do I need you for? This dish can't be charged."

"Then I'll take it away. I'll bring you a hot one tomorrow."

But the boss refused, "No way! My people are all hungry and waiting for you. If you take it away, what will they eat? Consider it a gift today. Don't be so stingy. I'll pay you if I send you a hot meal tomorrow!"

Liu Binghai didn't buy his tricks, "If you take the vegetables, you have to pay for them. There's no such thing as eating for free."

The man got furious when he heard this. "How can you be so hard to talk to, woman? So what if you want to eat for free? Your food is cold, and I'm going to eat for free today."

After saying that, he withheld the food and drove Liu Binghai and Xiao Mole out.

Little Mole wasn't a good-tempered person either. After being kicked out, he kept knocking on the door, shouting, "The boss of this place eats for free. If this gets out, he'll be laughed at!"

Then he shouted to the people on the street: "Don't come to this store, the owner is black-hearted and dishonest."

The boss came out and poured a basin of black water on Liu Binghai.

The muddy black water flowed down her hair. She wiped her face without saying a word, and walked back with Xiao Mole in her hand.

"Sister?" Xiao Zhi chased after Liu Binghai.

My sister today is very different from before.

How come the sister who wasn't even afraid of wolves just left without a word after being thrown a basin of dirty water?

Liu Binghai pushed the cart and Xiao Mole followed behind him.

He couldn't understand his sister anymore.

"Sister, why are you ignoring that person?"

Liu Binghai said expressionlessly, "I have other families to deliver to, and I don't have time to get involved with him."

“But that person is very unreasonable.”

"The food will get cold later, and I'll lose even more money."

Seeing her working so hard, Xiao Zhi couldn't bear it and couldn't help but persuade her: "Sis, you're working so hard, why don't you be with me, Brother Zhan..."

Halfway through his words, he felt a murderous aura coming at him and dared not say any more.

Liu Binghai's eyes were like arrows as he looked at Xiao Zhi in silence. After a while, he continued to push the cart forward.

After a tiring day, Liu Binghai returned to the He family, put the cart aside, raised his foot and pinched his ankle.

My ankles felt sore, numb and swollen, and they felt like they were two big stones.

Although the original owner had a playful nature, he had enjoyed a good life after all and had never suffered such hardship.

Little Mole: "Sister?"

Liu Binghai said without any expression, "It's okay, go in."

The two people entered the He family one after another.

Not far away, a man stood in the moonlight, looking at the He family's gate with a calm expression.

Dressed in black, he looked lonely under the night sky.

That woman must be very tired.

Even though she was in such a miserable state, she was unwilling to admit her fault to him or ask for his forgiveness.

Haha, he is really a man of integrity and temper.

But...where is the adulterer?

Now that she is in this state, he just runs away and doesn't care about anything?

Haha, let her know for herself who she is in love with.

It's just retribution.

The man's five fingers gradually clenched into a tight fist on both sides of his thighs, and his back teeth made a clattering sound.

——

Inside the He family compound.

Liu Binghai was sitting in the thatched house rubbing her feet, while Xiao Zhi was busy getting her a hot towel. The hot towel felt warm and very comfortable when she applied it to her feet.

The two of them were chatting idly in the room.

Xiao Zhi has been cursing the unscrupulous and unprofitable shop owner today, who withheld the dishes and refused to pay. She will definitely teach him a lesson some other day.

Liu Binghai remained silent.

As he spoke, his saliva flew everywhere, and his young face was full of anger.

After talking for a while, I felt tired, so I stopped and looked at the sea of drifting ice.

Liu Binghai suddenly laughed and asked him, "Little Mole, who are you?"

Little Mole blinked twice and said, "I am your brother, sister."

Liu Binghai smiled and lowered her head. The towel had already cooled down. She handed it to Xiao Zhi and said, "Warm it up for me again."

Xiao Zhi went to warm the towel, and the rooster stood in the middle of the room, looking at her with a frown.

For Roosters, scowling is not an expression, but an attitude.

It stamped its two chicken feet and looked at the drifting ice sea with great heartache.

Liu Binghai waved at it and said, "Come here."

He walked over anxiously, looked up and down at the drifting ice sea, his eyes fixed on her swollen feet.

Liu Binghai touched its comb for a while and sighed in his heart, "Chicken, chicken, it would be nice if he cared about me half as much as you do."

After saying that, I was stunned.

What is she thinking about...

She wanted to help the original owner break up this evil relationship, but how could she still be connected to him?

Damn it.

It's not her fault.

Damn that system.

She could tolerate ugliness, poverty, being chased by wolves and being haunted by ghosts, but she could not tolerate having even the slightest feeling for him.

The jade hand on the cockscomb moved, and the index finger slowly tapped on the cockscomb. After a while, the calm expression on her face returned to its usual state.

And she actually saw a hint of smile in the rooster's expression.

Jiguanzi rubbed her hand gently, feeling shy.

——

You don’t make much money delivering food, but you can make money quickly by doing bad things.

The icy sea continued to do bad things, and eventually it became famous.

Everyone said that the lady who ran the tea shop was really amazing. She was kicked out of the house and had nowhere else to go, so she even did unlucky things. Unexpectedly, she became addicted to it.

One day, another wealthy family came to see her.

The manager of Xu's dyeing factory, Brother Qiu.

Brother Qiu is as his surname suggests. He looks bitter and vengeful. There is a deep scar on his left cheek and his eye sockets are deep, like an eagle.

As soon as he found the drifting ice sea, he took out a silver ingot and slammed it heavily on the table.

Liu Binghai looked at the silver ingot without any expression.

Brother Qiu looks fierce and throws coins skillfully, but he is actually very polite when speaking.

"Excuse me, madam, do you have any requirements for doing unlucky things?"

When Liu Binghai heard this, he knew that it was not an easy life. It was just an unlucky thing, but there was no easy life at all.

"What do you want?"

Brother Qiu looked at the woman. She had delicate features and looked like a fairy. She had absolutely nothing to do with bad luck.

"Are you going to do the corpse stacking thing?"

Liu Binghai was shocked when he heard this.
