Assessing the situation, Madam Ye lowered her stance and was about to say a few soft words when Jiang Shumiao interrupted her, "I already know what happened before, there's no need to elaborate."
Madam Ye choked up, and said urgently, "How can you believe what evil spirits say?"
"I have eyes."
Jiang Shumiao looked at the old woman before her, whose mask of kindness had been removed and whose eyes were now filled with malice. "The first person you killed was your good sister, your husband's first wife. She had a difficult childbirth and her child was sickly. You tricked her into going to burn incense and pray for blessings, which attracted bandits who defiled her. In the end, she died with resentment."
Madam Ye was so shocked that she took a few steps back, her eyes filled with terror.
Lan Ying was unaware of this old case and sneered, "Truly a heartless viper, capable of harming even your own best friend—I remember now, I've heard before that your family isn't of high status, and your first wife only brought you into the family because she was worried that a second wife would mistreat her children, and entrusted you with their care on her deathbed. But the master is your own son, and you haven't treated your first wife's son well at all!"
Madam Ye sat down in shock, instinctively wanting to retort, but was interrupted by Jiang Shumiao.
“You killed that child too. He was already weak, and you deliberately opened the window at night, causing him to catch a cold and develop a fever, which led to his death.”
The old secret was exposed, and Madam Ye was terrified. She instinctively shook her head in denial, "No, I didn't..."
Jiang Shumiao was still listing her sins.
"And your maidservant, when she was pregnant, was fed a lot of tonics by you, and in the end, she had a difficult childbirth and both she and her unborn child died."
Madam Ye's face was deathly pale.
How could Jiang Shumiao know about these things?
She did it so cleanly.
She suddenly felt a jolt.
Yes, Jiang Shumiao is a goddess.
Mortals believe that gods can move mountains and overturn seas, slay demons and vanquish evil, yet they are unwilling to consider that gods can also see into the past. This is because most people in this world harbor evil within their hearts. They fear being exposed, so they deceive themselves even before the gods.
Right now, Jiang Shumiao calmly shattered all her pretenses, revealing the evil she had committed bit by bit.
"Lan Ying is the thirteenth person you killed. No matter how many Buddhist prayers you recite, you can't wash away your sins."
It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him by the head constable.
Old Madam Ye suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with panic and helplessness.
What terrified her even more was that the door opened, and the outside was full of people.
His son, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter all looked at her with shocked eyes.
Madam Ye felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and two words flashed through her mind.
It's over.
