Upon hearing this, the villagers who had followed couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in their eyes.

The brothers have a point.

These damn ghosts are supposed to be unable to stand the light, aren't they? Once exposed to light, they'll be severely weakened.

But Su Hua stood in the sunlight the whole time, completely unaffected.

Moreover, the Meng family does indeed have a grudge against the Su family, and the animosity between Meng Yun'er and Su Hua is even greater. Coupled with what happened this morning, it can be said that they are the laughing stock of the entire village.

Meng Yun'er's face darkened upon hearing this. Although the first part of what she said was harsh, it could be considered a sliver of truth. But to be doing *that* kind of thing in the house so early in the morning? What did that mean?

Before she could figure it out, Su Dahu bowed to everyone and said, "Uncles and aunts, Hua'er was ordained by a high monk since she was a child, and you all watched her grow up. She always talks about you uncles and aunts, and when she hunts wild boar meat on the mountain, she thinks of you first."

Whether she is human or ghost, I'm sure everyone has already made their own judgment.

Now, Meng Yun'er still harbors a grudge because her attempt to rob my Su family backfired and resulted in Meng Chengshi being imprisoned.

First, they buried copper coins and talismans in my house to cause trouble, and then they tried to harm Hua'er under the guise of demons and monsters.

His malicious intentions were so sinister that they were beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Today they harm my Su family; tomorrow they will harm all my uncles and aunts.

If such behavior is encouraged, I fear that Shanghe Village will never have peace again!

The man's powerful voice resonated deeply with everyone present.

Yes, Su Hua always addresses everyone as "uncle" and "aunt" when she sees them, her words as sweet as honey.

Moreover, they saw everything clearly during the last wild boar meat incident. The big trees on the hillside were broken by the wild boar, and Su Hua almost lost her life because of it. Yet, they gave away such rare wild boar meat without hesitation, clearly showing that they valued them highly.

If there really are such kind ghosts in the world, it's not something to be afraid of at all!

The gazes directed at Meng Yun'er suddenly turned displeased.

They still remember clearly what Su Baishi did at the Meng family's gate a few days ago. After losing his wife and twenty taels of silver, Meng Yongfu's old face was as black as soot at the bottom of a pot.

Moreover, neighbors near the Meng family saw that after Meng Yun'er was beaten to the ground by Meng Yongfu, he immediately closed the gate and didn't let Meng Yun'er in all night, leaving her standing in the rain all night.

For the next few days, Meng Yun'er's cough could be heard continuously.

All of this was because Meng Yun'er plotted against Su Hua, wanting her to be haunted by the King of Hell's ghost lantern.

Given the Meng family's modus operandi, they'll likely pin the blame entirely on Su Hua.

Su Hua watched the wind direction change in an instant, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

Her eldest brother's mouth was truly sharper than a razor blade. He used emotion to his advantage, cutting with both soft and hard words, and in just a few sentences, he returned every word Meng Yun'er had said to her.

It's a perfectly round black sesame ball.

The biggest surprise was Su Sanhu. The impulsive boy who liked to throw punches seemed to have matured a lot overnight. He started to use his brain to do things, and every word he said hit the other party's sore spot.

Beside a small wooden house at the end of the village, a figure almost blends into the leaves hangs upside down on a tree branch, its neck stretched out longer than a goose's, and it is cracking sunflower seeds with relish in its palm.

"Tsk, this family has a sharp tongue, each one more shrewd than the last, especially the one in the back, he's practically on par with our master."

The boy spat out the sunflower seed shells, raised his baby face, and stared straight up at the treetop. "Yu Feng, why did you make us let those little puppies find those holes? Wouldn't it have been easier to just tell their whole family?"

The person above kept his eyes closed, resting, and didn't answer.

The boy scrambled to the top and sat on a branch with the man, then raised his hand to lift the man's eyelids.

But as soon as she reached out her hand, the man grabbed it. "I have my reasons for doing things. Less talk, more safety. If you keep talking, you'll probably be sent away again."

"Okay." Yu Yu turned around and glanced at the wooden house.

Seeing that there was no movement at all, Fang patted his chest in relief.

If Yu Feng hadn't been bad at picking flowers, and if he hadn't happened to know a little about flowers, he probably wouldn't have been able to return to his master's side.

He sniffed, but his voice obediently lowered considerably. "Yu Feng, the food that family makes is so delicious it's killing me. Look at my mouth, I'm practically drooling. I used to sneak into the Imperial Kitchen for a few days, but those old guys' cooking skills are nowhere near as good as theirs."

If I could have just one bite, I would die content.

No, the more I think about it, the more I crave it, and the more I crave it, the hungrier I get.

Yu Feng glanced at the boy, silently swallowed, and said, "I'm hungry too."

"How about we go help that fat girl beat up that shorty?" Yu Yu's eyes lit up, a sly glint in them. "Master let the little puppy find those copper coins, which was clearly to help the fat girl's family. If I go out now and beat up that shorty, I can trade him for some food with the fat girl, right?"

Yu Feng's lips twitched almost imperceptibly as he heard the repeated use of the word "fat girl."

He turned and glanced at the tightly closed window frame.

He said calmly, "Go ahead, I'll wait for you here."

"Yes." Yu Yu nodded upon hearing this, her toes touching the branch as she was about to fly down when she suddenly felt something was amiss. "Yu Feng, what's wrong with your expression? And what do you mean, 'I'm going, you wait for me here'? I'm late, is there something you don't know? Don't lie to me..."

The chirping sounds caused the birds around the cabin to flap their wings and fly away.

Then, a soft cough came from the study window.

The boy's lips paused abruptly, and his two bright eyes closed in response.

A few breaths passed, and after hearing no further sound, she cautiously peeked through a crack in her eye and glared at Yu Feng opposite her...

The commotion at the wooden house was unknown to the people outside the small courtyard at the end of the village.

"Are you all blind?" Meng Yun'er burst out laughing when she saw the villagers' attitude suddenly change and looked at the Su family members' confident expressions.

She stretched out her hand and pointed at Su Hua, whose lips were curved in a smile. "Take a good look at her. From top to bottom, what part of her resembles Sister Hua'er? Is she a vengeful ghost or your beloved daughter, your own sister? Can't you really tell at all?"

In this world, there are fools who become wise, but how could anyone suddenly become omniscient overnight!

Not only can he stir-fry snails and run a business, but he also possesses medical skills—and his skills are even better than those of Doctor Zhou! In just a few days, he transformed from a black bear spirit into a little piglet; this is simply beyond the capabilities of ordinary people!
