Chapter 15

The fire-burning master was forced to update the vocabulary analysis. He tentatively asked, "So, Director, you want to cooperate with the Wu family to find this person and then kill him?"

"What do you mean by destroy? We are not lawless criminals. We are recycling dangerous goods and then hand over the rest to the police." Su Yun put away the Ganoderma lucidum, patted his Qiankun bag and said.

"Ah? So after finding the person, just call the police directly?" The fire-stoker didn't understand Su Yun's thinking at once. The other party was definitely not a good person. If the prison could trap the other party, he would not have been at large for so many years.

Su Yun took two bites of melon and said, "How is that possible? Of course we have to deal with him first. We can't make things difficult for the police. It would be best if we destroy his cultivation. That way he can be reformed peacefully in prison and won't come out to harm the world in the future."

After listening to this, the fire-making master couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Su Yun is worthy of being the old curator's biological daughter, her train of thought is exactly the same.

The thing that people who practice Taoism fear the most is that their practice will be wasted. Unless they are an old master with a very good mentality, the thought of starting over again can drive countless people crazy.

After they found the person, they stole his Ganoderma lucidum and destroyed his cultivation. For a moment, it was hard to tell who the bad guy was.

Of course, for Su Yun, she calls her behavior - eliminating harm for the people.

The fire-making master couldn't dissuade Su Yun, but the reason he didn't secretly report it to the old curator Su Yiling and Ji Weitang was that he thought it would be nice to give this good thing to Su Yun as a snack. Good things are often hard to come by, and since he saw it, it was fate.

When Su Yun had eaten enough, he continued to lie down and wait for the Wu family to come back so that they could have a feast together.

At this time, the cook was still working hard in the big kitchen, but the aroma of food had already spread and could be smelled from several buildings away. Su Yun was so engrossed in the yard that she couldn't sleep. She hadn't had breakfast yet. The snacks she was eating were prepared by the cook in advance for her. They were not to satisfy her hunger, but mainly to keep her going until the feast.

Considering that banquets were a serious matter, Su Yun opened a small reception hall as a banquet box and did not eat in the yard as usual.

Aunt Wu's funeral was simple, with few extra guests, and even her old friends were not notified. This was Aunt Wu's own request. She felt that her current appearance was no longer suitable for contacting old friends. Moreover, twenty years had passed, and they had only contacted each other once or twice. Perhaps the feelings were no longer there, so it was better to end it like this, leaving an initial impression on each other in their hearts.

Su Yun was not clear about the situation at the cemetery. This was a cooperation between Su Yiling and Ji Weitong in the past. As long as the Xicheng Funeral Home did not go bankrupt, the cemetery would never unilaterally refuse to accept orders from the funeral home.

Of course, with the changing times, many people nowadays do not like to hold funerals. Some even hold them directly in the cemetery and bury the body right after. The whole process takes less than two days.

People have adapted to the fast-paced life. An old-fashioned funeral home like Xicheng Funeral Home, which still takes its time and prepares for funerals, is destined to have little business. If Su Yiling and Ji Weitong did not have side jobs, Xicheng Funeral Home would not have been able to survive and would not have been able to give Su Yun such a good life.

At twelve o'clock noon, the funeral home was ready and was waiting for the Wu family to come back. After the meal, Wu's father and mother would take the portrait and the tablet back to the old house for storage. Wu Jin and Wu Yu also had to go to work. During the three days of suspension of work, Wu's father and mother went back to work to help out. It was impossible for the two brothers to not work all the time.

As for Aunt Wu's seventh day after death, the current arrangement is that the funeral home is relatively close to the cemetery, so the eternal lamp will be left at the funeral home, and Su Yun will wait on her behalf. The Wu family will come and stay for one night on the seventh day after death, so that they can see Aunt Wu, and it will also save Aunt Wu from having to cross the entire Bincheng to the Wu family's old house to eat a bowl of glutinous rice on the seventh day after death.

The Wu family didn't arrive at the funeral home until half past twelve. Su Yun and other employees were already waiting at the door. Today's banquet was a meal for the Wu family, the funeral home, and the Wu family's entourage, and it could be considered a farewell from Aunt Wu.

Before the meal started, Su Yun took the Wu family to light a stick of incense for Aunt Wu and burned some paper money. This was the last stick of incense before leaving, and the next time they met would be on the seventh day.

After the meal, Wu's father found Su Yun and said to her, "Yunyun, regarding the mold, I took photos last night and showed them to a few old friends. They all said that the mold they had seen seemed different, but I didn't ask everyone. These few are my better friends, and their character is acceptable, so I thought about it, could it be that more than one person can have this thing?"

Su Yun, who had never thought about this question, was also stunned: "Uncle, what you mean is... this may be from the same sect?"

Father Wu nodded. "Yes, I think that if we just find anyone who knows this skill and regard him as the murderer, it will be easy to wrongly accuse him. After all, in an industry like theirs, there should be a lot of emphasis on inheritance, right? There will occasionally be one or two evil disciples in a sect. Even if we can't find the murderer for a while, we can still find his whereabouts by looking for his fellow disciples."

Su Yun thought about it and felt that what Father Wu said made sense, so he asked him, "Uncle, did your friend take pictures of his own home? What are the specific differences?"

Speaking of this, Wu's father took out his reading glasses and mobile phone, held them far away, opened the chat software, clicked on the chat boxes one by one, and finally found a photo in a bunch of chats that was obviously taken by the same elderly person. It was not very clear, but the range was large enough.

"That's it. Because the master asked us to clean them all up, they didn't think much about it and thought they were useless and unlucky things, so they asked the cleaning lady to clean them up every day. They didn't expect to take a picture of it. As for this picture, the old guy took it because he wanted to show it to his son and daughter, and he forgot to delete it." Father Wu handed the phone to Su Yun and explained.

As soon as Su Yun got the phone, she forwarded the photos to herself. She had never added Wu Fu's number, so she added it directly, and then checked the photos on her own phone - her phone was the latest model and the screen was bigger than Wu Fu's.

The screen resolution of the latest mobile phones is very high, so even if the photos are a little blurry, you can still see a lot of details.

It is somewhat different from the pattern painted by Su Yun. If Su Yun painted small black flowers, the one in the photo looks like black mist, thick and thin. From a distance, you might think it is a shadow created by water.

Father Wu took back his phone and continued, "Are the patterns completely different? But they both look like mold. Yunyun, do you want to meet this master first? Maybe they are from the same school and can get in touch."

Su Yun looked at the photo and hesitated. "I can do anything, but I'm worried that it will coincide with Aunt Wu's seventh day. Uncle, whether this master is a good person or not is just speculation. What if he is in cahoots with the murderer and happens to meet Aunt Wu's return? Wouldn't that be troublesome?"

Hearing Su Yun say this, Wu's father also felt that it was inappropriate. He thought about it and said, "Then, I won't contact this master first. I will go to ask the old guys in other families first. If there are really two people, and my sister's first seven days have passed, it won't be too late to make an appointment."

"We must make an appointment for this matter, but uncle, don't bring it up yourself. In our line of work, sometimes we know what will happen after the beginning, or even before the beginning. So you must not think about making an appointment or finding the murderer. Just think of helping me and that I need to find this person." Su Yun reminded seriously that although this matter was related to Aunt Wu, she also had her selfish motives, and it would be best not to implicate the Wu family.

Father Wu frowned immediately, "This is not good. If they are really in the same group, what will you do? You still can't figure out the matter with the Su family, and now add this, I'm afraid you can't handle it. I'll let Wu Jin go. With his personality, he won't say anything, so others can't tell anything. He is the most suitable person to go."

As Wu Jin, who still has a little bit of innate energy, he is naturally calm and steady. To put it bluntly, he is like a gourd with a sawed mouth. This kind of person is very safe in everything he does because he is cautious in what he says and does.

Su Yun thought it was feasible. Wu Jin's fate showed that he could handle it. Besides, if he couldn't, he would come to him for help. "That's OK. Brother Wu Jin is a calm person. It's not easy for others to get anything from him. And he knows that he will come to him for help when he can't handle it."

The two of them made an agreement. Before the seventh day, Wu Jin took the painting to ask the sons and daughters of Wu's father's old friends for information about the master they were looking for. They would ask as many people as they could and then meet at the funeral home on the seventh day. They would take the opportunity to tell Su Yun the news without worrying about being discovered.

The Wu family left in the afternoon. As soon as they left, the funeral home returned to its previous tranquility. If it weren't for the ceremony hall that was built to light a perpetual lamp for Aunt Wu, it would have been no different from before.

After the funeral, even though he was done with his work, Su Yun went back early to rest and slept until the next morning without having dinner or snack.

The procedure at the funeral home in the morning is to burn incense to Hou Tu Niangniang and the Ten Kings of Hell, followed by the spirit infants kept in the funeral home, and finally ordinary deceased persons like Aunt Wu. If the family members are unable to burn incense, the funeral home will burn incense on their behalf.

After burning incense, you have to burn paper money, some gold and silver ingots. This is why Su Yun posted a recruitment notice to find employees who can fold paper money. On the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month and in special circumstances, there should be less paper money. With one more ghost, the employees can burn less.

As a result, even after Lin Lang came, it was still not enough. On the contrary, it seemed even busier because he was asked to make coffins and urns.

After Su Yun burned incense to Aunt Wu, he returned to the yard and did the math. He found that once the business opened, there were only six employees, which was still a little short. It would feel cruel to use paper-cut figures to fold paper money, and burning gold ingots in the future would not seem very sincere to the Queen Mother of the Underworld.

While thinking about what to do, Su Yun received a message from Wu Jin, along with a few photos.

[Wu Jin: I asked the children of my father’s old friends. Not all of them left photos, only these few. Those who didn’t have photos also said that the mold in their homes was not the pattern you drew. They said it was the type of small flowers, and they would definitely tell everyone.]

After all, they are the second generation of rich people who do nothing and rely on their family for protection. The fact that they don't cause trouble is their biggest help to their family. When they see such strange things, they will definitely spread it everywhere. It can be said that they are fearless or brainless, but that's their character and they themselves don't care.

Su Yun clicked on and enlarged all the photos and found that they were indeed not the small flower patterns she remembered. They were all the misty and water stains that Wu's father had shown her, and they looked like a person.

Su Yun then sent a message back to Wu Jin, asking him if he had asked everyone.

[Wu Jin: Yes, my father has asked all the friends who have invited this master. There is no omission. Even if there is, they will mention it in their own conversations. But with these few, we can’t find the same one now. Either someone from other circles has invited him and he has no connection with us, or this master is indeed not the murderer.]

The fact that they were not the same person made Su Yun feel that the whole thing became interesting. Could it be that they were really brothers from the same sect?

One of them takes orders for transporting goods for the rich, and the other one takes orders for killing people. These two brothers from the same school have two different career directions. Does their master really not think that there is something wrong with his teaching?

Su Yun thanked Wu Jin and said that he would think about it and asked him to continue to pay attention in the city. Then he called Lin Lang and asked him to accompany him to Aunt Wu's fat son's house again. As they had agreed the day before, they had to go back and see if the seeds of resentment on the door panel were still there.

Su Yun didn't touch it at that time because he wanted to keep it until now. If the thing was gone, the other party might have been monitoring the Wu family, the funeral home, and even Su Yun's movements. If the thing was still there, he could take it back directly for investigation.

Lin Lang agreed immediately and changed into simple clothes. He did not wear Taoist robes or funeral home uniforms. Both of those clothes were too conspicuous. After all, he was a man. Unlike Su Yun, when she went out wearing Hanfu, people would at most think she was just trying to be pretty. If a boy wore Hanfu or something like that, he would just be stared at.

The two of them still sat in the same car as before. It was low-key and had no memorable features, so it would not attract other people's attention.

Regarding the matter of the fat boy, Su Yun only remembered to check the news after he got in the car. More than two days have passed, and there should be a result.

Sure enough, both the news and the official police account issued an announcement, which roughly said that the fat son was a minor and the two elderly people who died were his grandparents. The grandfather died first and had been stored in the refrigerator for a year, and the grandmother died later, only a month ago.

The fat son's father went to the hospital a few days ago and caused a stroke. He is currently unable to take care of himself. The fat son escaped from the hospital and has not paid the emergency bill. It happened that the fat man was given emergency treatment at a private hospital, which is different from a public hospital. It is only natural to pay back debts.

The decision made by the police was that, considering that the fat son was a minor at the age of fifteen and his father was still alive, the hospital waived this part of the money, but the fat son had to take his father back to take care of him.

After in-depth investigation by the media, they found out that the fat son could not finish junior high school and went home directly. The school had arranged for him to take a leave of absence because of the nine-year compulsory education and they did not expel him directly. They thought that they would issue him a certificate of incomplete studies when he was over the age limit. He did not have a diploma because he did not even take the final examination.

Seeing such a background on the Internet, coupled with the fact that the fat son's family is very fat and that they are defrauding pensions, there are all kinds of sarcasm and ridicule on the Internet. The netizens' words are very immoral and the insults are quite harsh.

Now the pension of the fat son’s grandparents has been stopped. The police persuaded the fat son to go back to school, but the fat son did not respond, and it is unknown how the father and son will live.

After reading various media reports on the way, Su Yun put down his phone and said briefly to Lin Lang: "Lin Lang, do you think this child can still be saved?"

Lin Lang said at the red light: "Director, he is not a child anymore. Whether it is his appearance or his fate, he is no longer a child. Everything he does now is his own choice. No matter what the consequences are, he should bear them himself."

Those who practice Taoism may not be so particular about age, but they are still very tolerant of children. Lin Lang calculated that the fat son had evil intentions. People like him were born like that and there was no way to save them, so he told the fat son to bear the consequences.

Besides, everyone in the world has his or her own karma and destiny. You must not interfere in matters that do not concern you, otherwise you will be bearing the karma for the other person, and if you are not careful, you will be unlucky for the rest of your life.

It is best not to save someone who should not be saved. Good words cannot persuade a damned ghost. Nothing in the world is more important than yourself.

Su Yun smiled after hearing this and said, "So Aunt Wu is right. People like them will make me unable to survive if I don't care about them."

They set out late today and encountered the morning rush hour. There were no wide roads in the villages on the outskirts of the city, and the traffic was blocked for most of the day. When they arrived, there was no parking space, so they took a long detour and finally found one. By the time they walked there, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

They came back to the square self-built building. The door was closed and no one was walking around. Lin Lang took Su Yun through the wall just like before, then went upstairs and knocked his fat son unconscious.

The first floor of the house was still very messy, with a lot of garbage that had never been seen before. I guess my fat son treated the first floor as a garbage dump. He would rather throw garbage directly on the first floor than walk out the door to the trash can at the corner of the alley.

As the ground became even more messy, Lin Lang had to tidy it up before pulling Su Yun upstairs. It seemed as if they were not climbing stairs, but rock climbing in a dangerous area - no, it would be worse than rock climbing, after all, there might be a place to stay after rock climbing, but there is no place left in this house now.

There were spilled food scraps on the stairs, which had already rotted and molded. Some were green, and some were bright yellow mold. If you eat this mold, your entire family will be buried.

Lin Lang really couldn't stand it anymore, so he used the transfer technique to move all the garbage to the trash can outside so that he had a place to step.

The fat son was still playing games on the second floor. He was swearing at his teammates in annoyance. All kinds of ugly and insulting words came out of his thick lips. The opponent was not to be outdone. The two of them were fighting back and forth, and it was impossible to tell who was winning.

The sound of the two people cursing mixed with the background music of the game, and the fat son had no idea that someone had entered his house again.

After Lin Lang helped Su Yun walk to the second floor, they were stunned by the scene in front of them - the fat man who had returned from the hospital was lying on the sofa, covered with a dirty quilt, his eyes were crooked, his mouth was crooked, his whole body was trembling, but he couldn't utter a word, and the entire second floor was almost like a garbage dump.

The garbage we saw on the stairs and on the first floor just now was not because my fat son used the downstairs as a garbage dump. It was simply because there was no place to throw the garbage on the first floor, so the garbage rolled downstairs.

In fact, the garbage produced by two people is not that much, but the fat man had a stroke. He could not control his body and needed someone to take care of his physiological needs at any time, such as eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.

The fat son ignored him and just threw him a urinal and started playing games. After the fat man lost control of his bowels and bladder, the fat son thought it was dirty and didn't want to deal with it, so he covered it with something, such as takeout. Compared with feces and urine, the stench of rotten food didn't seem so bad, so the fat son left a lot of takeout boxes waiting to be covered. Because there were too many reserved takeout boxes, the other garbage was squeezed downstairs.

But even if the fat son didn't want to deal with the garbage, he could go downstairs and find some mud and sand to cover it up. He didn't have to take care of it. The weather was so hot that the mud and sand would dry up quickly. Sweeping away the mud and sand would make the house much cleaner than it is now, as if the whole house had rotted away.

Lin Lang hesitated for a long time at the stairs and couldn't figure out how to jump over and knock out the fat son and the fat man on the sofa. There was really no place to land. Even if he could fly over, he would have to fly in the air after knocking out the fat son and would not be able to land at all.

Seeing Lin Lang hesitate, Su Yun whispered to him, "Go out and pick up two stones and knock him out."

The house was in such a mess that it looked terrible. Even if two more stones suddenly appeared, it would not be strange at all. There was no need to worry about anyone discovering their presence.

Lin Lang nodded, turned around and went out through the wall. He didn't even want to go up the stairs. After a while, he came back with two pebbles, knocked the father and son unconscious with one of them, and then flew over to unplug the power.

The second floor was filled with the smell of rotting food and feces and urine. Under the cover of these two smells, even the sour smell on the father and son's bodies, which came from not having taken a bath for a long time, was not obvious.

The two did not stay on the second floor for long. After knocking the father and son unconscious, Lin Lang helped Su Yun step on the railing and went up to the third floor. They felt a little better after reaching the upstairs. The father and son did not seem to like climbing stairs, so the floors above the third floor were relatively clean and there was little smell.

After reaching the fourth floor, the smell disappeared. Su Yun heaved a long sigh of relief: "I am finally alive. How can anyone live in such an environment? And still be able to eat? It's really outrageous..."

When they came in, they saw the takeaway box placed next to the fat son. He was playing games while eating lunch, and dirty oil and water were everywhere. There were various snacks and drinks next to the keyboard. There was a milk tea cup with mold that was taller than the residue. The fat son was not afraid of dying from drinking the wrong drink.

Lin Lang said: "Maybe this is the life he wants to live."

People are born with very few choices, just like Aunt Wu. Except for the first twenty years, her life was worse than death. But no one could restrain the fat son's hands and feet. He still chose to live this life worse than death, because he was willing to do so.

If it rains, it will rain. If my mother wants to get married, I can’t stop it or save it.

Su Yun stopped talking and went straight upstairs. There was still no light in the attic and the doors and windows were closed. However, without the two large refrigerators, Su Yun and Lin Lang could stand in the attic together.

The police have come to investigate and have taken away the bodies from the two refrigerators, but have not touched anything else, including the sealed rooftop door and windows. They probably don't understand why the doors and windows must be sealed and why a wooden bed must be placed in this narrow attic.

Because the police are not obligated to help the family members clean the room, they will not completely clean up the traces on the door panel. Even if someone accidentally touches the door panel, they can only wipe their hands clean at most, instead of wiping off the mold on the entire door panel.

Su Yun turned on the flashlight and carefully examined the door panel. The mold on it was gone, as if it had never appeared.

If someone wipes it off, it will leave traces of erasure. Even if you use a scraper to scrape it, it will leave scratches. Only by letting the mold disappear by itself or using transfer techniques like Lin Lang can you make all the mold look like it never appeared.

"It seems that he was taken away. This is probably bad news." Su Yun said regretfully.

The mold disappeared, which meant that the other party knew that Aunt Wu had been cremated and that their arrangements had not worked, and that the Wu family was still alive.

This kind of resentment seed that is like mold can cause harm to people's physical and mental health, and can even merge with their bodies. Unless the person who left the resentment seed keeps paying attention to the situation, he will only focus on the living zombies he created, that is, Aunt Wu. Now that Aunt Wu is dead, the other party must feel that the plan has failed, and should think of new ways to continue to kill the Wu family.

As for the seeds of resentment, if they are not created deliberately, ordinary people who interact with them will at most suffer from poor health but will not turn into zombies, so there is no need to worry about them. After all, those who can become living zombies are not good people, so why would they care about the lives of several people?

Since the other party didn't care, he shouldn't have come to take the resentment seed. Now that the thing is gone, it can be speculated that the other party is either keeping an eye on the situation on Aunt Wu's side and wants to clean up all the clues, or this resentment seed is very precious and needs to be recovered.

The latter guess is not so tenable. It could be said to be precious before. After the fire-making master found the Ganoderma lucidum growing on the coffin of a thousand-year-old zombie in the corpse of Aunt Wu, Su Yun felt that the latter guess could be ruled out. With such Ganoderma lucidum, there would be as much resentment as one wanted, and it could not be called precious.

Lin Lang stood beside Su Yun and reached out to check it. He said, "There are not many traces left on it. It may be that a transfer formation was prepared from the beginning, which makes it difficult to track."

The main reason is that the scent of the resentment seed is too weak. Instead of spending a lot of effort tracking it, it is better to find someone and ask who has taken the order for a living zombie recently.

Su Yun turned off the light on his phone: "Let's go back, there are no more clues here."

The two left the dim attic and went to the second floor. They saw the fat son still lying on the table. After a while, the new lunch box next to him began to emit an unpleasant smell.

As for the fat man on the sofa, he was in a coma, had difficulty breathing, and was breathing out more than in, and it looked like he wouldn't live long.

Coming out of this dirty house and on the way to find a car, Su Yun suddenly said to Lin Lang: "That man, probably in the past few days."

"Why?" Lin Lang was stunned for a moment before asking. He didn't pay attention to the man's face just now, so naturally he didn't calculate the man's fate and fortune.

"His son doesn't know how to take care of people, and he doesn't have the patience to take care of people. He doesn't eat or drink for a long time. How long do you think that hemiplegic man can live?" Su Yun said calmly.

The fat son has never taken care of anyone. It should be said that both he and his son are probably not good at taking care of others. They were probably spoiled by their mother since childhood. Their father lived a life similar to theirs. His only luck was that he married an uneducated woman who was brainwashed by feudalism.

After this woman spoiled her son into a local tyrant, she continued to spoil the prince. Now both of her sons are like giant babies. The fat son may share some of what he eats with his father, but most of it goes into his own stomach.

For an obese and bloated adult man, this amount of water and food is probably only enough for him to survive for seven days. Whether he can survive after that depends on whether his son is willing to send him to the hospital.

I think they would not be willing to do that. After all, they have no money now.

After returning to the funeral home, Su Yun was so tired that she ate something and went to sleep. After all, she was just an ordinary person now. After running for so many days, her physical fatigue could not be relieved and she had to recover through sleep.

Over the next two days, Wu Jin would send messages to Su Yun from time to time, but there was no new progress. Moreover, he and Wu's father couldn't find the person who wanted to kill them. They now suspected that the other party just happened to find Aunt Wu.

[AAA Xicheng Funeral Home Director: Did you happen to find Aunt Wu? ]

Su Yun asked this on the chat software, and he always felt that this was a good direction.

[Wu Jin: Yes, we have been searching for so long and have not found any other clues, so my father and I speculated that maybe it was just my aunt who was found? I remember you said that it is very troublesome to create a zombie like my aunt, isn't it? ]

The production method and conditions of a living zombie are quite demanding. The most difficult part is the timing. The more accurate the timing, the more the living zombie will look like a living person. To some extent, Aunt Wu is not the most successful one because her eyes are red and she has the characteristics of a zombie.

Su Yun guessed that Aunt Wu might not have wanted to continue being a human being before her death, and just wanted to go home, which resulted in her desire to live not being strong enough. Even though she successfully turned into a living zombie, she still lacked a breath of life because she didn't want to live.

Looking at the words Wu Jin sent, Su Yun thought about it and continued to reply to him.

[AAA Xicheng Funeral Home Director: It is not impossible, but the other party has such ability, so he is obviously not unknown in the circle, so it is impossible that he does not know Aunt Wu. Even if he does not know her, he can still figure it out. Knowing who is using Aunt Wu's body, and even using her to kill you, it can be said that he is coming for you. ]

In response to Su Yun's words, Wu Jin displayed "typing" several times, and after a while, he sent a new message, with a hint of helplessness between the lines.

[Wu Jin: Indeed, we will not take it lightly. The seventh day is coming soon. Perhaps you can make an appointment with the master first.]

Speaking of this famous master in the circle, Su Yun perked up and asked Wu Jin how to make an appointment with him.

Wu Jin replied that this master was usually elusive, and if anyone wanted to make an appointment with him, they had to go to a teahouse in the city called "Unknown Teahouse". This teahouse had only appeared a few years ago and originally had no reputation. But after this master appeared and liked to make appointments there, it gradually became popular in the upper class circles.

Although it is said to be a trend, the essence of it is to meet a master by chance. If one can catch the master's eye and get a few words of approval, then maybe one's fortune will change and one will get rich.

After reading Wu Jin's message, Su Yun thought back and remembered that she knew about this teahouse, around the time she was in high school.

Before Su Yun was twenty years old, she didn't know that she was not the daughter of the Su family. At most, she thought that the Su family was patriarchal and didn't like her as a daughter. But her family conditions were good, her daily life would not be too bad, and she was not the kind of person who would suffer losses, so she lived a pretty free life.

When Su Yun was in the first year of high school, he overheard from his classmates that a new teahouse had opened in Bincheng. He thought that there might be masters hanging out there, so he wanted to go there more often and ask the masters to predict his marriage.

Children born in prominent families all pay attention to matching their status. They can marry someone of higher status but not someone of lower status. The older the family, the more they know about the bad nature of human beings. Now they all call for equality for all and equal rights for men and women, but in essence, power is the key. If a good young lady marries someone of lower status, she is giving up her power.

Giving up power is equivalent to giving up one's social status, property, personality, and life, which is an extremely stupid thing to do. Even the most love-brained girls will be severely beaten awake by their families. If sticks can't wake them up, poverty can always do it.

Therefore, sober girls will only think about their own marriage destiny. They don’t ask to meet a very good person, but at least he should not be a poor and stupid person.

Su Yun had never heard his family talk about arranged marriages. If they didn't mention it, Su Yun wouldn't go around shouting that he supported freedom of marriage and was against arranged marriages.

However, Su Yun was still a little princess in the circle at that time. The problem of her identity was slowly exposed after the college entrance examination. It was almost twenty years at that time. Both Su Yun and the Su family could not bear it, but they just didn't announce it. In fact, people who were close to her had some speculations.

There are two girls of the same age. It can't be that the Su family doesn't love their own daughter but instead cares for a poor student, right?

So smart people probably thought from that time on that Su Yun might not be the Su family's biological child, and this identity would be exposed sooner or later, it just depends on how the Su family chooses the time.

Before graduating from high school, Su Yun lived like a little princess surrounded by stars. When the others planned to go to the nameless teahouse to find a master to predict their marriage, why wouldn't they invite her?

It just so happened that Su Yun had nothing else to do during that time, so he agreed to go a few times. Unfortunately, he never met the so-called master. After those girls returned disappointed several times, they stopped going because it was boring and suspected it was a gimmick to cheat people.

Su Yun thought so too. If there was a master, they would have met him by now since they appeared so frequently. So she didn't go either.

The next year, when Su Yun was a sophomore in high school, a girl suddenly said that she had really met the master. The other party was a young man with an immortal appearance, wearing a Taoist robe and had very long hair. He walked without making any sound and had a gentle face. Anyone who saw him would feel close to him.

The other girls didn't believe her and suspected she was lying to attract attention.

As a result, the girl became anxious and took out a talisman, saying that it was given to her by a master. After fortune-telling, the master said that she would have peach blossom disaster in the future. It would be best for her to wear the talisman to break the peach blossom in advance, otherwise she would have peach blossom disaster in the future.

When everyone heard the girl say this, they burst into laughter and thought she was being cheated. They asked her how much she spent. The girl hesitated and finally said 50,000 yuan when she was forced into it.

Suddenly the girl was ridiculed even more. People thought it was stupid for her to spend 50,000 yuan to buy a talisman, which was given to her by an unknown Taoist priest. With that much money, she should have asked her parents to take her to buy it from a famous master.

The girl was so angry that she cried, and to save face, she burned the talisman. But this did not stop her from being laughed at. Whenever people mentioned her, they would mention her romantic misfortune, which even became a label for her.

As a result, when she was in her third year of high school, the girl had to drop out of school because she got pregnant before marriage. She was still a minor at the time, and she couldn't get married even if she gave birth to the child. However, she seemed to be bewitched and had to give birth to the child. Her parents had no choice but to let her go home to give birth to the child. She then continued to take the college entrance examination the following year, but her results plummeted.

Even if she was the daughter of a wealthy family, she still couldn't reverse the changes in her body after giving birth. She did ruin her bright future by giving birth early.

She failed the exam the first year, but took the exam again the second year. With the help of these two years, the father of her child successfully entered her family and became a son-in-law. He started his internship at the girl's company right after his junior year. When Su Yun graduated from university, he saw in the gossip group of the second generation that the girl had just been admitted to an ordinary undergraduate university, and her husband had become the heir to the company in name only.

Everyone laughed at the girl for being stupid. She gave away her great family fortune. In the future, the man would definitely make her family members extinct. The girl is not in a clear mind now, and her parents spoil her. In three to five years, maybe the man would kill their whole family, even the children, and take all the property for himself.

Su Yun heard about this. He had just graduated, so he found the contact information of the girl he hadn't contacted for a long time and greeted her. For some reason, the girl made an appointment with him at the Wuming Teahouse.

After many years, the two appeared in this nameless teahouse again, and they felt that everything had changed.

The girl has aged a lot, and her eyes and demeanor are no longer those of a little girl. She is obviously the same age as Su Yun, but now that they sit together, others will only call her Auntie and Su Yun Sister when they see them.

"Maybe you are curious about why I chose this place, but I think many things may have started from this teahouse. Among the people who came here at that time, you are the only one who remembered to ask me how I was doing." The girl said after taking a sip of tea.

When they meet now, the girl has become an embarrassed housewife, and Su Yun is the fake daughter that the Su family announced was taken away by mistake. They are no longer the ones who could hold their heads high and live freely and unrestrainedly.

Su Yun was still considering how to start the conversation when the other party said this. She was suddenly at a loss. She didn't expect the girl to start with something so far away. After thinking about it, she could only ask why.

The girl was silent for a long time and explained that she did meet the so-called master in the teahouse at that time. It was not even what she thought, but the manager of the teahouse came to inform her that the master she had been waiting for had arrived. The master was very powerful and accurate. If she had any questions, she should seize the opportunity to ask. If she missed this opportunity, she didn't know how long it would take for the master to come.

Facts have proved that being in love might be innate. Girls keep waiting just for their marriage. When they heard that the master was very accurate, they went to ask him immediately, and he offered a high price.

The master was indeed a young man. When he saw the girl coming, he said that he usually did not tell fortunes for girls with this kind of fate, but since the girl came, it was fate, so he could tell the fortune. After the fortune telling, he drew a talisman for the girl on the spot. Together with the money for the fortune telling, the total amount was 50,000.

The girl was laughed at by her classmates and friends because of the talisman. She was so angry that she burned the talisman, but this did not stop others from laughing at her, calling her names and making fun of her. She was not like Su Yun, who would let everyone be unhappy with her when she was unhappy. She was a little introverted, and after being laughed at for such a long time, her introversion turned into extreme inferiority.

People with low self-esteem cannot resist the stinginess of others. It was at this time that her husband entered her heart. The handsome young man at that time told her that it was okay and that he would always be with her. The girl was deceived into bed by him in a moment of impulsiveness. Then she gave birth to a child, dropped out of school, failed the college entrance examination, and spent three years to get into college again.

As time went by, she suddenly realized that after all her suffering for so long, nothing had changed. She was still the one who was laughed at. People used to laugh at her stupidity for being cheated out of 50,000 yuan, and now they laughed at her for being cheated out of her family property. She would definitely be destitute in the future.

Amid such ridicule, her husband no longer came to comfort her. He even thought she was a burden and got angry at her every day. Only Su Yun would come to ask her "Are you okay?"

Su Yun listened to her complaining about her life over the years and wanted to ask her why she didn't change. Since she knew where the problem was, why didn't she choose to change? She was only 22 years old and had a bright future. What couldn't she do?

But Su Yun thought again, some people are like this, it is harder to make her change than to kill her. She has no self-reliance and self-improvement in her mind. She is a canary that has been spoiled. No matter how bad the cage is, she can't soar in the sky and is destined to die in the cage.

The conversation that day ended with the girl complaining all kinds of things. She didn't ask Su Yun for help, nor did she have any thoughts of breaking free. She agreed to come out with Su Yun just because she felt too uncomfortable being alone and needed a trash can.

Su Yun had no idea what happened to this girl now, because she disappeared and died not long after. She then spent four years recuperating in the funeral home. This year she is 26 years old and has just taken over the funeral home. She has not yet returned to the real world.

From Su Yun's current perspective, the master of the nameless teahouse was indeed accurate in his predictions. He said that there would be a peach blossom disaster in a girl's life, and if she could wear the talisman, she could avoid it. Isn't this also saying that if the girl insisted on not throwing away the peach blossom talisman, she would not be easily psychologically conquered by those foul-mouthed rich second-generations?

As long as her psychological defenses are not broken, she will not be easily deceived by a boy into giving birth to his child, and her peach blossom calamity will naturally be broken.

Su Yun felt a little sad when she thought of this past event. She inexplicably felt that the master she had heard of was the same person as the master Wu Jin had mentioned. However, she still needed to verify it. Just in case, she should not reveal this past event to anyone. If it was really the same person, then she could trust the other person.

Because what the master said was right, few people are willing to overcome the peach blossom calamity. Only when they encounter it and have no other options will they talk about solutions.

Peach Blossom Disaster is essentially a kind of thinking tendency of human beings, that is, for a period of time, one chooses to blindly believe in someone, thinking that the other person loves oneself and that this person is indispensable to oneself, and then one is deceived and loses money and life.

Unlike other destined calamities, peach blossom calamity is the only calamity that can be said to be caused by the person's own unclear thinking, commonly known as love brain. There is no way to prevent the peach blossom calamity of such people, and any solution is powerless under their powerful love brain.

After all, a Taoist priest can make you rich, but he can't stop you from doing stupid things.

The most important thing is, if the peach blossom calamity is not broken, it is very likely to backfire on the person who helps. One is that the other person's peach blossom calamity will affect your own fortune and you will be unlucky for a while, and there is even more possibility that the love-brained person will choose to kill the person who helps, regardless of the cost.

There was once a criminal case that was reported in the news, in which a girl persuaded her best friend to break up, and was killed by her best friend's boyfriend. Her best friend even helped to dispose of the body and cover it up. This is the backlash of peach blossom calamity. If you don't have that ability, you must never do it.

The master of the nameless teahouse was willing to give the girl a yellow talisman, which was considered to be the best he could do. It would be great if he could help. When he couldn't help, the girl really blamed the master, thinking that the talisman had started her unlucky life. If she could find the master's whereabouts, she would have come to burn him as well.

Su Yun felt that if this master were a person, they could have a chat and perhaps get some unexpected results.

After thanking Wu Jin in the chat box, Su Yun told him that he wanted to meet the master alone, and asked Wu Jin not to alert the enemy first. Also, Aunt Wu's seventh day of death was approaching, so they should remember to come.

Wu Jin didn't know what Su Yun was going to do. Su Yun was a person with her own ideas, and no one could change what she wanted to do since she was a child.

Soon it was the seventh day after Aunt Wu's death. Wu Jin said early that they were coming from the Wu family's old house and asked the old cook at home to prepare some of Aunt Wu's favorite foods to be served as offerings.

There were too many things to do at the funeral, and the old man's attitude was unclear, so Father Wu didn't dare to ask the old cook at home to cook, for fear that the old man would see and get angry. Now that the person has been buried, and only the seventh day is left, Father Wu secretly asked the housekeeper to go to the old man and smuggle in some of the things that Aunt Wu loved to eat when she was a child.

The things were packed in an insulated box and were still warm when they arrived at the funeral home. Father and Mother Wu said hello to Su Yun and went to the ceremony hall to change Aunt Wu's clothes.

These days, the fireman always remembered to prepare hibiscus cakes for Aunt Wu. They were fresh every day and changed twice a day. Everyone ate a piece of the replaced hibiscus cakes so that they would not be wasted.

Father Wu walked into the ceremony hall and saw that the lotus cake was still there, and it looked like it was newly made. He was stunned for a moment, then turned back and smiled gratefully at Su Yun: "Yunyun is thoughtful, thank you for preparing the lotus cake for her."

"As we should. We always provide the best service to our customers." Su Yun told the truth, and the Wu family thought she was joking.

After replacing the food stolen from the old man, Father Wu burned incense to Aunt Wu and told her about her recent situation. For example, the old cook seemed to be in poor health recently, but when he heard that Aunt Wu had been found, he forced himself to go to the kitchen and make some of her favorite food. He also had a lot to say. After thinking it over, he probably thought that she should open her eyes more in the next life and marry into a good family.

There is also the old man of the Wu family. He has been living in a nursing home for a long time and his health is not particularly good. I hope Aunt Wu will not blame him too much. The old man has the mindset of an elderly person. He thinks that children should get married and have children when they grow up, and those who do not get married and have children are abnormal, so he wants to force Aunt Wu to get married.

When Aunt Wu jumped out of the car, the old man was so angry that he didn't go to look for her. Later, Aunt Wu never came back. He thought that Aunt Wu was angry with him and didn't allow anyone to contact her.

The daughter thought her father no longer recognized her, and the father thought his daughter was going to cut off ties with her. In the end, the daughter had to endure all the pain alone, all because of that damn human trafficker.

Father Wu and Mother Wu talked a lot in the ceremony hall. When Su Yun and Wu Jin walked out, she asked, "Is the old man really not angry with Aunt Wu anymore?"

"How could that be possible? The old man never said a word. Today, the food prepared by the cook and the grandmother-in-law was taken secretly. Dad said that just to make aunt happy. At this time, saying a few nice words will make everyone feel comfortable." Wu Yu snorted.

Cook Granny is a nickname given to the children of the Wu family. The old lady with excellent cooking skills was a servant of Grandma Wu. She came as a dowry. The children no longer knew her real name, so they called her Cook Granny.

Wu Jin looked back at the ceremony hall and said, "Dad went to Grandpa's place yesterday, thinking that since it was the seventh day, he should at least come to see him. But Dad didn't even see Grandpa. He sat for a long time and came back dejected. He couldn't persuade Grandpa, so he asked the old housekeeper to go back and ask the cook to at least make a few dishes that Aunt likes to eat."

It would be helpless and sad to say too much. Wu Jin didn't know how to evaluate people like the old man. As a grandson, he had no right to talk about his elders. He just felt a little heartbroken when watching such things. It was hard not to think, today it was his aunt, would it be them tomorrow?

There are some things that you can't think about too deeply, because that would be making things difficult for yourself.

Seeing that they looked unhappy, Su Yun simply changed the subject: "By the way, Aunt Wu's soul is coming back tonight, and this is the time when she is most awake. Can you talk to her tonight? I want to ask her what happened in the attic at that time. Maybe she still has some impression, but she may not remember me. It's better if you are there."

Hearing this, Wu Jin and Wu Yu were stunned. It took a long time for them to come back to their senses. Wu Jin hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't I ask my father first and let them decide."

"Okay, I have no objection, but you'd better make a decision early. My aunt's soul will return between 11:00 and 12:00, a total of four hours." Su Yun said without comment.

The time from Haishi to Zishi is from 9pm to 1am, which is just after dark. There is not much time, perhaps just enough for Aunt Wu to tell her experience again.

Wu Jin went to the ceremony hall to discuss with his father and mother. During this time, Su Yun saw Wu Yu doing nothing nearby. Thinking that Wu Jin would not come out for a while, he went over and hit Wu Yu's arm with his folding fan: "Wu Yu, I have something to ask you."

Wu Yu, who was leaning on the railing, was startled. He stood up suddenly and said, "Just tell me what's going on. Why are you hitting me?"

Su Yun rolled his eyes at him: "I didn't use any force. You are so big, how could I hurt you? Stop talking nonsense, I want to ask you, do you still remember that... Peach Blossom Girl?"

Peach Blossom Girl is a nickname. After so many years, Su Yun herself can't remember the name of the girl who was doomed by peach blossoms, but she remembers the nickname everyone gave her.

Times are changing so fast that nicknames that were once considered insulting and embarrassing now seem to be acceptable.

Wu Yu thought for a while and then revealed a look of sudden realization: "Is it the girl who got pregnant before marriage in high school and took the college entrance exam for three years and only got into college?"

"Yes, it's her. She was admitted to university the year we graduated. I went to see her once then, but I haven't seen her since. How has she been these years?" Su Yun asked hurriedly, slapping his palm with his folding fan.

"If you want to ask about the present, I'm not too clear about it, but I did hear about what happened two years ago. But why are you asking her about this? I don't remember that you two were good friends." Wu Yu looked at Su Yun strangely.

Su Yun looked at him unhappily: "I just suddenly remembered it and asked what's wrong? After all, they are old classmates. Haven't you gossiped about old classmates?"

No one is not interested in gossip. Wu Yu is even an administrator in the gossip group of the second generation circle. When he heard that it was Su Yun who wanted to know the gossip, he shared it all with him and described it vividly.

The girl named Taohuamei dropped out of school within a year after she was admitted to university because she was pregnant. This was her second child. The first was a son, and she didn't want a second one. However, her husband coaxed her into believing that if she had a son, she had to have a daughter as well. Having both a son and a daughter was a good thing. So Taohuamei, who was in love, went home to have the baby.

The fastest time to give birth to a child is one and a half years. Taking care of the pregnancy, childbirth, confinement, and rehabilitation all consume time and energy. Even if the pregnant woman has a lot of money, there is no way to change this.

Taohuamei went back home to give birth to a child, but before the child was born, her parents were suddenly imprisoned for economic crimes. Her father was sentenced to life imprisonment and her mother was sentenced to twenty years. She hasn't gotten over her parents' misfortune yet, and her husband cheated on her and wanted to divorce her. He clearly asked her to go home to prepare for the birth of the child and even said sweet words to her, but now he wants a divorce again.

Taohuamei, who lost her parents, naturally refused to divorce. She didn't know what she would have left after the divorce. Her love-stricken brain seemed to finally realize that without her parents, she would have nothing. She didn't know anything, hadn't even finished her freshman year, and there was an unborn baby in her belly. If she divorced, how would she feed her child and herself?

The husband seemed to have known that she would not agree, so he filed for divorce directly, saying that it was because of the misconduct of his father-in-law and mother-in-law. He and his wife had been separated for a year and their relationship was not harmonious, which met the criteria for divorce, so the court smoothly granted the divorce.

It was then that Taohuamei discovered that her husband had always told her to go home to prepare for the birth of her baby, but in fact, he had never stayed at home since she returned home. Now all this had become evidence of their emotional discord and separation.

As soon as the divorce agreement came down, Taohuamei's mind was still unclear. Her family company went bankrupt. She found out that during the time she was fighting the lawsuit, the servants, housekeeper, and driver in the family had resigned at some point. She was alone in the huge villa like a lonely ghost.

The company's shareholders withdrew their investments one after another, and with her parents in jail, the company was declared bankrupt, and she was left with a debt of 300 million yuan.

In the same month, a new company with rapid development momentum emerged in Bincheng, and its chairman was Taohuamei's husband.

At this time, the second generation circle suddenly realized that Taohuamei’s husband may have planned all of this since she was in high school. Taohuamei’s pregnancy, failure in the college entrance examination, second child, parents’ imprisonment, and company bankruptcy may all be caused by her husband.

In the business world, the winners are the kings and the losers are the bandits. Taohuamei herself is willing to marry someone of a lower status. Her parents did not know how to choose a good person and raised an ungrateful person. They are just stupid. People will only laugh at Taohuamei's family. At most, they will say that they are so stupid that it is a bit pitiful, and that's all.

"...What happened next?" Su Yun was stunned for a moment after hearing the ending before he remembered to ask.

"How could there be any later? All the things in Taohuamei's home were taken away by the bank. She was pregnant with her son and couldn't even find a place to stay temporarily. She had no friends because she was pregnant and had a child, so she slept on the streets. Two days later, she started rummaging through trash cans with her son. Her son was beaten to death by beggars. She couldn't accept the premature birth and gave birth to a deformed baby who died. There has been no news of her since then." Wu Yu said with a sigh.

It can be said that Taohuamei has been suffering for half her life since she met her husband. Now no one knows where he died, but after hearing the whole story, she was speechless.

You could say she was pitiful. She actually had many opportunities to change. Su Yun even went to find her, but she felt that the problem was with the master, instead of going back and kicking her husband out of the company when his foundation was not yet stable. But to say she deserved it, that's not the case. She was just naive and not very smart. Some people are born weak and they need a lot of love to fill their natural imperfections.

Su Yun opened her mouth and asked with difficulty: "Where is her husband? Doesn't she care about her own son?"

Outsiders are laughing at the joke. It is understandable that Wu Yu and his gang, who only know gossip, did not lend a helping hand after knowing what happened to Taohuamei. They are just acquaintances. Helping is a favor, and not helping is a duty. No one should help anyone. What's more, Taohuamei made this choice herself, and she never listened to what others said. She has no friends left, and others don't owe her anything, so why would they rush to help?

Wu Yu touched his face, a little embarrassed: "Men are creatures that don't have much affection for their offspring. Men will only have feelings for two kinds of offspring: those born by the woman they love and those chosen to take care of them in their old age. Other than that, they are not biological sons, but burdens."

It was unpleasant to hear, but it was the truth. Wu Yu said it so nonchalantly because his father and mother had been childhood sweethearts and were deeply in love. He and Wu Jin were born in love and he felt that they were better than other children, so he said it as a matter of course.

Su Yun looked at him speechlessly, wanting to refute something, and then realized that she was actually enjoying everything she had now because her parents loved her. If her biological parents had no love and were unwilling to give anything for her, she should have died the year she graduated from college.

Unable to refute anything, Su Yun held his breath and said, "Sister Taohua's husband is such a person. Aren't you afraid of doing business with him?"

For a person who can watch his own son die, what else can he not give up?

Wu Yu shrugged, "Because he was scared, our Wu family didn't cooperate with him. Although we didn't cooperate with Tao Huamei's family, our non-cooperation doesn't mean that other families don't want to cooperate. To be honest, you were in this circle before, so you don't know what those people are like, don't you?"

It was too clear. In the current second-generation circle, there were few young masters and young ladies under the same age who had not been bullied by Su Yun. She did not have too much favor from the Su family, and was later exposed as a fake daughter, but she was still able to live well. The suppression of her martial arts and IQ when she was young accounted for a large part of the reason.

Unlike Peach Blossom Sister who only knows how to evade and give in, Su Yuntian has a strong personality. She doesn't provoke others, but if someone dares to provoke her, she will beat them back. Even if more than a dozen people come to scold her, they will still be scolded by Su Yun and run away in shame. In addition, she is a mean person - facts have proved that this is hereditary - so that others are afraid of her and dare not provoke her.

Even someone as rude as Wu Yu was just rude and wouldn't dare to do anything more.

Su Yun thought of those people and wrinkled his nose in disdain: "Sure enough, I was too lenient in the past. I should have reformed them while they were young."

"..." Wu Yu looked at her speechlessly. After a while, he spoke hesitantly, "Speaking of sister Taohua, where have you been all these years? I heard Su Yun say... oh, the one with the grass radical Yun, she said that you made a big scene in the Su family, and it seemed that you had a tantrum with your uncle, aunt, and elder brother Su Lin. Later, you ran away from home. We all thought that you wanted to drive Su Yun away, but you were rejected, and then you were sent abroad by the Su family."

After listening to it, Su Yun raised his eyebrows: "Oh? After all these years, you have been listening to this version?"

Wu Yu lowered her head in embarrassment. "Oh, isn't that right? Didn't we all hear Su Yun say that? Besides, the Su family didn't come out to explain. Your sisters either said they didn't know or said Su Yun was right. Later, you studied at the university alone and applied for orphan subsidies and scholarships. Of course, we thought you were kicked out because you asked too much from the Su family."

At that time, I didn't know why, but I just felt that Su Yun was right. I didn't think about it at all. With Su Yun's bad temper, she was the only one who could kick her out of the Su family. How could the Su family control her? It was good enough that they didn't get killed by her.

Before, Wu Yu always thought that the truth was like that, until she was taken back from Qingyun Villa by Wu Jin and met again because of Aunt Wu's funeral, Wu Yu slowly recalled how strong Su Yun was. She knew that she was not the biological daughter of the Su family. After confirming it, she would definitely move out of the Su family directly and then find a way to return all the money to the Su family.

But then there is another problem - for so many years, they all thought that Su Yun was sent abroad by the Su family. Now they know that Su Yun has other parents and the Xicheng Funeral Home, so where did she go for the first four years?

Su Yun looked at him quietly for a while, then smiled: "Of course I'm going to learn skills, otherwise do you think I got all this cultivation from a dream? Even if my parents find me, if I want to have skills, don't I still have to work hard on my own? How can a cultivator achieve success overnight?"

When Wu Yu heard this, he raised his fingers and shook them up and down hesitantly: "Hey, don't say it... don't say it... I was wondering, I haven't seen you for a few years, you have become a master, it's good to learn from you, I know you are not trying to steal other people's property, I don't have such a big opinion of you, I'm sorry about what happened in Qingyun Villa before."

"You still know how to say sorry, so you're not hopeless." Su Yun nodded with relief.

"Hey! I'm sincerely apologizing to you!" Wu Yu was furious again. After a while, he seemed to remember something and said, "But speaking of it, what's going on between you and the Su family? You just left and we didn't hear you explain it at school. Su Yun said that you had a conflict with the Su family. Is it true or not?"

Su Yun glanced at him and said casually, "Really, but she never explained the cause and effect from beginning to end, and you didn't even think of asking why?"

When it comes to this question, Wu Yu is also confused: "It's strange. We asked her why and she said she didn't know. Then we could only guess. The problem is that after guessing, we still believe it. Can you analyze it for us? Are we possessed by evil spirits?"

In the past, Wu Yu was a staunch materialist fighter. Ever since he saw Aunt Wu grow bigger and smaller, he has become more awed by the unknowns of this world. Now that problems have arisen, the first thing he suspects is whether he has been possessed by an evil spirit.

Su Yun stroked his chin and thought: "I don't know. It's useless for you to ask me about things that happened so many years ago, but I can tell you the truth about why I left the Su family."

Wu Yu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Just tell me quickly."

"I was indeed the Su family's mistaken child. I found out about this after I turned 20. So I wanted to leave at that time. The Su family tried to keep me, but I didn't agree. They thought I was throwing a tantrum, so we started arguing. But I really wanted to leave, but I didn't expect that after someone spread the word, I would be blamed. Of course, this word might have been spread by the Su family, because they really thought I wanted to leave because they didn't give me enough." Su Yun still felt it was outrageous when he said it.

When Su Yun left, it was clear that she had an argument with the Su family. She questioned her parents whether they had used her as a scapegoat for Su Yun from the beginning. Her parents admitted it, and Su Yun was so angry that she wanted to leave immediately. As a result, the Su family thought she was ungrateful, as if she should kneel down and continue to accept the Su family's charity with gratitude, and work hard for the eldest daughter of the Su family.

Su Yun is not stupid. It was already considered that she had a good temper that she did not chop all the members of the Su family into pieces after her rebirth. How could she accept such a request?

Su Yun did not tell Wu Yu about these details, in order to prevent him from spreading nonsense. Su Yun now did not want to have anything to do with the Su family at all. Even if the money and goods were settled, the best outcome would be for them to never see each other again in this life.

Of course, if the Su family wants to hold a funeral in the future and chooses Xicheng Funeral Home, Su Yun would still welcome it.

They chatted for a long time, and Wu Jin and the others also discussed and decided to meet Aunt Wu tonight. They haven't met formally for many years. When Aunt Wu came back last time, she was in a daze and unclear, so they couldn't really communicate. Besides, Wu's father and mother also wanted to know what happened to Aunt Wu before her death, so they decided to meet Aunt Wu on the seventh day.

Since everyone is willing to see, Su Yun has to prepare in advance. After all, the Wu family are ordinary people. If they want to see ghosts, they have to open their third eye, either by using magic or cow's tears.

When Su Yun returned to the room to look for cow's tears, he thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate. Father and Mother Wu were old. If they used cow's tears to see the ghost, it would actually affect their lifespan. It would be better to change their thinking - let Aunt Wu appear.

If ghosts reveal their own bodies for people to see, it means that it is not the mortals who want to see them, and the ghost messengers escorting the ghosts will not have their lifespans shortened. This solves this big problem.

There are many ways to make ghosts appear. Su Yun thought about it and went straight to Lin Lang to make a request to him. He said that he wanted a formation that could allow ghosts to appear for four hours, preferably one as big as a funeral home.

Lin Lang listened silently, and waited until Su Yun finished describing it before saying, "Is it prepared for Ms. Wu?"

"Yes, I have something to ask her, and my uncle and aunt also need to talk to her." Su Yun answered truthfully.

"Okay, I will finish it before nine o'clock." Lin Lang agreed.

With Lin Lang's guarantee, a huge formation can be drawn. No matter where Aunt Wu comes from, as long as she enters the funeral home, she can be seen.

Soon it was nine o'clock in the evening. Su Yun told the Wu family that ghosts could see the light of the eternal lamp, so after coming up from the underworld, they would go directly to the location of the eternal lamp. They usually came to eat something, and then take a look at their relatives, friends, and lovers, and then they had to go back. They could not stay for a long time, and their main purpose was to say goodbye to the ghosts.

The weather is good tonight. The moon is not full but it is bright, and the sky is full of shining stars.

Su Yun asked Yan Gui and the others to pack up the eternal lamps and offerings in the ceremony hall and put them back in the yard. Ghosts all like moonlight, and the formation is already so large anyway, so instead of having a group of people stuck in the ceremony hall, it would be better to go to the open yard, like a night tea party with the theme of farewell.

Lin Lang came back at 8:30 and said that the painting was finished and he was just waiting for Aunt Wu to arrive.

The Wu family was waiting nervously in the yard. The things on the table were not only for Aunt Wu, but the cook had also prepared other snacks and pastries, but no one touched them now.

At nine o'clock, a cold wind suddenly blew, and the moon in the sky seemed to dim. In the darkness without any light, a beautiful woman in a white dress slowly emerged. It was Aunt Wu. Her eyes were black now, her hair was in the big wavy curls that she liked when she was young, and her face had returned to the look of her early twenties. Those should have been the happiest and most carefree days of her life, so she looked like this after her death.

Aunt Wu came out of the darkness and floated to the table. She looked at the people on this side, then looked at the people on the other side, and whispered: "Brother, sister-in-law, Wu Jin, Wu Yu, Yun Yun, um, they are all here, it's good..."

Hearing this, Su Yun was stunned: "Aunt, you actually... remember me?"

Hearing Su Yun suddenly talking to her, Aunt Wu was startled and she stepped back abruptly: "I, I...you, you..."

"Aunt, don't be afraid. There is a Taoist priest in my funeral home. The formation he drew allows us to see you." Su Yun hurriedly pointed at Lin Lang and explained.

"You guys?" Aunt Wu looked at everyone else in shock, only to find that her eldest brother and sister-in-law had tears in their eyes, and her two little nephews had strange expressions, as if they were familiar with each other as if they hadn't seen each other for many years.

Wu Jin controlled his emotions first, he stood up and said, "Aunt, don't be nervous, come and sit down, Su Yun helped a lot this time, but tonight we only have four hours, let's sit down and talk slowly, okay?"

With Wu Jin's comfort, Aunt Wu finally figured out what was going on. She floated to the seat prepared for her and sat down. She stretched her arms and legs and suddenly laughed, "I thought I would never have the chance to see such a scene again in my life."

She did not regret jumping off the car, but she felt a pity before her death because she could not escape by her own ability and see the people who loved her.

Now that she had seen it with the help of Su Yun, Aunt Wu could hardly contain her excitement.

Aunt Wu had just arrived, and the Wu family members first exchanged some greetings, and then talked about the current situation. As they talked, the topic naturally turned back to Aunt Wu. She had lost twenty years, and only she knew what had happened in these twenty years.

Speaking of this, Aunt Wu smiled bitterly and said, "Now that I think about it, I think it would be better to just follow the old man's wishes and get married directly, but if I had a choice, I still wouldn't get married."

"Why? Is it because you, aunt, don't like the person grandpa chose for you?" Wu Yu asked in a low voice. It was rare for him to be so reserved.

"No, because I am a single person. I'm not trying to be cool or follow the trend. I just instinctively believe that human beings come into this world naked and leave it naked. Everyone lives on their own, so we should live alone all our lives. It's different from the singleness you understand, right?" Aunt Wu said with a smile.

Wu Jin and Wu Yu were both shocked when they heard this. They had never expected that their aunt, who had always been the subject of all kinds of gossip about men and women, was actually a single. But when they thought about it carefully, wasn't it because their aunt insisted on her singleness that people spread such gossip?

There are always people who like to spread rumors about those who insist on being themselves. They say that singles have countless sex partners, and those who are remarried must have cheated. All kinds of rumors are actually spread by dirty and filthy thoughts. Only dirty people will think dirty things.

Then Wu Jin and Wu Yu looked at Wu's father and mother, but found that they were not surprised, and were immediately puzzled.

Father Wu noticed the looks in his two sons' eyes and explained, "Your aunt told the family about this a long time ago. She said she would not marry anyone, nor would she arrange a marriage. Even if one day in the future she met someone who could make her love against her instinct, she would not get married. Love is not linked to marriage."

Engels said that marriage is to ensure that every man can have a slave of his own.

Aunt Wu, who has received higher education, has always believed that love is love, marriage is marriage, and singleness is her instinct. Love is a hormone, and she may go against her instinct to love someone for that person, but the shelf life of love is only eighteen months, and she believes that her instinct can overcome hormones.

When Wu's father first married Wu's mother, he was stunned when he heard his sister say this. He subconsciously said the same thing as his father: "If you don't get married... aren't you a freak?"

In the past, everyone thought that everyone should get married, but when a man did not get married, people would say he was a playboy, and when a woman said she did not want to get married, people would just say she was a freak or a pervert, or, they would say that women did not understand and that once they got married they would know how good it was.

What's so good about getting married?

Persuading women to get married is just to make them have children. If they don't have children after marriage and want to be DINKs, people will say that they don't understand. Once they have children, they will know how good it is to have children.

We have to wait for everything, so when will the so-called good things come?

Aunt Wu saw the truth clearly. She said directly to my eldest brother and his wife, "Brother and his wife, you think marriage is good because you have love. Your love has overcome time and hormones. It is natural for you to get married. It also guarantees the fruit of your love in the future. But I am not like that. I cannot see the advantage of my hormones. Therefore, I cannot meet a love that can make me restrain my instincts. Then why should I get married and make myself miserable?"

This matter was too shocking twenty years ago. Wu's father and mother did not dare to tell anyone, so they advised Aunt Wu not to make it public for the time being and to delay it until she was in her forties or fifties. Then no one could force her to get married and she could then say that she had not found someone she loved, which was better than announcing everywhere that she was single.

However, not long after, the old man felt that Aunt Wu was too old, so he spontaneously arranged a blind date for her without even notifying anyone. Aunt Wu had that temper and couldn't stand it, so she had a big quarrel with the old man.

The old man felt that he had been humiliated, and was also furious at his daughter's rebelliousness like a psychopath. He was determined to help his daughter correct this problem. Countless quarrels and open and covert fights followed, and the father and daughter fought each other fiercely.

Aunt Wu reached out and took the lotus cake on the table. She tasted it lightly but didn't eat it. The lotus cake only darkened a little. She smiled and said, "The old man was furious. He felt embarrassed about me and wanted to cure me. I don't know who gave him the bad idea. He said that as long as the rice is cooked, I can't get married even if I don't want to."

"So... Grandpa took you to the home of one of your blind dates?" Wu Yu couldn't help but speak in surprise.

"Yes, they fed me medicine, but I was ruthless. I broke the bones in my hand to break free from the ropes, and then I beat up the man who dared to go along with the old man. I believe he will never dare to lie in bed with a woman again in his life." Aunt Wu tapped a bone in her hand as she spoke.

Wu Jin and Wu Yu looked at each other immediately, and they remembered an uncle who had a bad relationship with their family. He had never been married in his life, and they heard that it was not possible for him to get married, but they never thought that he was beaten beyond humane status by Aunt Wu!

Su Yun was also shocked, because she also knew that uncle: "And... because of this matter, the old man wants to force you to apologize?"

Aunt Wu nodded: "Yes, he said that he was the last man willing to marry me and he had to apologize. I said no, and then he asked the bodyguards to come and tie me up. When we were in the car, I asked him what he would choose between me dying and marrying me, and he said he would choose marriage."

Then, Aunt Wu found a way to untie the rope on her hands, and when the old man and the bodyguard didn't react, she picked up the old man's metal crutch and smashed the car window directly. She jumped out and was scratched by the glass and bled.

The driver quickly stepped on the brakes, so the old man in the car and the bloody Aunt Wu outside on the road stared at each other. In the end, the two sides were in a stalemate, and Aunt Wu turned around and walked away because of the pain, but unexpectedly fainted in a nearby woods.

Because of this anger, the old man held himself back and did not go looking for Aunt Wu, thinking that she was so strong and would definitely be fine.

Then, Aunt Wu was taken away.

Aunt Wu lifted her big wavy hair and laughed softly: "If I had to do it again, I probably wouldn't choose to jump out of the car. Instead, I would directly poke the old man's neck with the cane. After all, he has a strong body and is better than me."

After twenty years of torture, even Aunt Wu's family affection was completely worn away. She hated her father, the fat man, and the fat man's family. She held on to her breath, perhaps just to see how they died.

Everyone was speechless for a long time. They could not easily make any comments on a woman's life of struggle. Light words could not express every unknown pain she had experienced. All the retellings were just superficial.

"What happened next? What happened before you left, aunt?" Su Yun asked softly.

"A weird person came to ask me if I wanted to take revenge..." Aunt Wu slowly recounted the conversation between her and the other person.

The man was hidden in the darkness. He lowered his head slightly and asked with pity and indifference: "Do you want revenge? They treated you like this, do you want revenge?"

Aunt Wu's hands were tied in front of her. She smiled softly: "Why don't you look down at the two refrigerators on the ground?"

Hearing this, the man turned his head in the narrow attic with confusion and difficulty. He saw two bodies in the refrigerator and didn't understand.

At this time, Aunt Wu said softly, "You are late. I have already put them in the refrigerator. I am really sorry. How about you go down and talk to the King of Hell to ask them to come back, and then you can send them down? I don't mind."

Man: “…” I don’t mind.
