Grandma Zhang's family lived in a small, detached courtyard house. Although it wasn't a traditional courtyard house, it was considered quite well-off for that era.

Mu Jiuchun locked the bicycle and then reached out to pat the wooden door.

A woman's voice came from inside the door, "Who is it?"

Mu Jiuchun said, "It's me, is this sister-in-law? Please open the door, I'm looking for Grandma Zhang!"

The voice didn't sound like Grandma Zhang at all; she guessed it was Grandma Zhang's daughter-in-law.

Sure enough, the courtyard gate opened, and Grandma Zhang's daughter-in-law came out.

Mu Jiuchun quickly said, "Is Grandma Zhang home? I'll go in and find her!"

She took a step and wanted to go inside.

However, Granny Zhang's daughter-in-law blocked Mu Jiuchun's path.

Grandma Zhang's daughter-in-law said, "No! You can't go in. My mother instructed that no one from the Mu family should be seen. You should leave!"

Mu Jiuchun was surprised and hurriedly asked, "Why doesn't Grandma Zhang want to see us?"

Could it be that you think we didn't pay you enough last time? Twelve yuan, go ask around, is that a small amount?

"If Grandma Zhang doesn't want to see me, fine, then I'll go to the police station and make a scene. How can she take someone's money and not do their job?!"

Grandma Zhang's daughter-in-law was startled. If this matter went to the police station, her family would be in deep trouble. This was superstition!

She quickly lowered her voice and said, "What are you yelling about? I'll just let you in!"

Mu Jiuchun rushed into the room and went straight to Granny Zhang's room. "Granny Zhang! You have to save my whole family! Li Xiyue is a monster. Please help me think of a way to get rid of her!"
