Chapter 269 What a bizarre life story

The next morning, Jiang Heci got up and weaved cloth, then went to the mountains to look for wild vegetables.

His daily routine was very regular, so Aunt Wang deliberately chose to come when he was not at home.

She also brought an aunt with a matchmaker's mole on her mouth.

"Are you really going to give me money?" Auntie Mole, the matchmaker, stood at the door and confirmed with Auntie Wang again.

Aunt Wang nodded vigorously.

"Okay, then I'll go all out." The matchmaker, Auntie Mole, looked at Jiang Heci's yard, mustered up her courage, and walked in.

"Miss, you are the one who wants to inquire about Jiang Heci, right?" She looked at Lu Qi and asked.

"Yes." Lu Qi nodded.

"What do you want to know?" The matchmaker looked straight into Lu Qi's arms.

"I want to know everything about Jiang Heci." Lu Qi didn't keep her waiting and gave her a pearl.

The matchmaker, Auntie Mole, immediately showed her yellow teeth. She said cheerfully, "Don't worry, young lady. I will tell you everything I know."

She wanted to brag about herself a bit more, but when she saw Lu Qi's cold eyes, she immediately stopped talking and got to the point.

"Jiang Heci, he is the son of a demon." The matchmaker, Aunt Mole, lowered her voice and looked around, fearing that someone would hear what she said.

Lu Qi:?

She must have heard it right.

What a bizarre background.

Seeing her disbelief, the matchmaker suddenly became anxious.

"I'm not lying, everyone in the village knows about this. You from the Wang family, don't you agree? Jiang Heci's mother is a spider spirit. We all saw it when the master came to capture the demon." She turned her head and looked at Aunt Wang, seeking her confirmation.

Lu Qi also looked over.

Aunt Wang nodded and agreed with what the matchmaker Aunt Mole said.

Lu Qi was confused.

She had thought of many possibilities, but not this one.

"Jiang Heci's father, Jiang Tiankuo, was the first scholar in our village. We all thought he would marry the daughter of the county magistrate. Unexpectedly, after he passed the exam, he married an orphan from a poor family, who was Jiang Heci's mother. Jiang Tiankuo called her Xiuniang."

The matchmaker, Auntie Mole, talked incessantly.

"Xiuniang was very beautiful, and everyone said that Jiang Tiankuo was attracted by her beauty. Jiang Tiankuo did not refute it, but just smiled and did not rush to take the exam. He stayed in the village and became a teacher. The couple loved each other very much. A year later, Xiuniang gave birth to Jiang Heci."

"Xiuniang is good at weaving cloth, and Jiang Tiankuo is a teacher with a salary. They can be said to be the richest people in the village."

Lu Qi nodded secretly.

No wonder Jiang Heci had a collection of books at home; it turned out that his father was a scholar.

"But something unexpected happened when Jiang Heci was five years old." When the matchmaker Auntie Mole spoke of this, a hint of fear flashed across her face.

"Xiuniang went to the county town to sell cloth, and was spotted by a rich young man who was visiting the county. He kidnapped her and brought her home, wanting to possess her."

"As a result, Xiuniang revealed her true form, a giant eight-legged spider, which frightened the rich young man to death."

"You deserve it." Lu Qi commented coldly.

He actually dared to snatch a decent woman in the street. He deserved to be scared to death.

"Go on." Seeing her stop, Lu Qi urged, pursing his lips.

"Okay, okay, I'll go on." The matchmaker wiped the sweat from her forehead and continued.

"Xiuniang fled back to the village. Jiang Tiankuo learned about this and wanted to take her away, but he didn't expect that the family would find a master and ask for Xiuniang's life."

"After the master arrived, we didn't know what was going on. It wasn't until Xiuniang was forced to reveal her true form that everyone was terrified."

"Jiang Tiankuo was obsessed and begged the master to let his wife go. But the master said that humans and demons are different and told him not to be stupid, and then he wanted to kill Xiuniang. Jiang Tiankuo went crazy and wanted to kill the master with a knife. The guards hired by the family directly killed Jiang Tiankuo."

"When Xiuniang saw Jiang Tiankuo dead, she went mad and killed dozens of guards present. In the end, the master used all his strength to kill her."

"That day, the whole village was filled with the smell of blood. Even when I was eating, I could still smell the smell. It was terrifying."

The matchmaker, Aunt Mole, recalls what happened back then and still remembers it vividly.

"What about Jiang Heci?"

Lu Qi couldn't help but ask.

"The master said he was a human, not a demon, and didn't take him away. But no one in the village dared to approach their home. Some street ruffians tried to steal things from the Jiang family, but ended up coming out bleeding. Their own home also caught fire for no apparent reason. Everyone said that it was Xiuniang's ghost who stayed at the Jiang family to protect Jiang Heci."

"Since then, no one dared to approach Jiang Heci. Only Aunt Wang lived close to his family and felt sorry for him, so she gave him some food from time to time."

When the matchmaker Auntie Mole said this, she looked around anxiously.

She told these things at Jiang's house, Xiuniang wouldn't cause trouble for her, right?

Thinking of this, she looked at Lu Qi anxiously.

"Girl, you have to give me some more money, otherwise if Xiuniang goes to my house, I will suffer a great loss."

Lu Qi didn't believe that Xiuniang's soul was still in the Jiang family.

She nodded and asked about what she was concerned about: "What about the live-in son-in-law?"

She hasn't forgotten. When she talked about this yesterday, Aunt Wang had a lot to say.

"Well, it's all the county magistrate's daughter's fault." The matchmaker, Aunt Mole, curled her lips.

"A few years ago, our county magistrate changed. He had a little daughter who was about the same age as Jiang Heci. Jiang Heci inherited his mother's beauty, and when he met the county magistrate's daughter in the county, he fell in love with her."

"The girl wanted to marry Jiang Heci. The county magistrate asked around and found out about Jiang Heci's background. He was determined not to let his daughter marry him. But the girl was used to being spoiled and insisted on marrying him. The county magistrate told her the truth but she refused to listen, thinking he was lying to her. In the end, she threatened to commit suicide."

"The county magistrate refused to agree to anything, but he never expected that his daughter would actually swallow gold and commit suicide. The county magistrate could not bear such a blow, and in a rage, he made Jiang Heci the son-in-law and let him and his daughter have a ghost marriage."

"Jiang He refused outright, but was still kidnapped."

"Unexpectedly, that night, the entire county office was crawling with spiders, and they used spider silk to wrap Jiang Heci and took him out. The next day, the county office was full of bright red bloody handprints. The county magistrate was shocked and dared not mention the matter of letting him become a son-in-law. He found some connections and quickly transferred him out of our county."

…

[Oh, the second princess knows the truth, she won't cry, right? ]

[Jiang Heci is a second-generation demon. I don’t know if the second princess can accept it. ]

Lu Li watched the whole process on the melon-eating system and couldn't help but sigh.

Lu Yanshi:?

What is the second generation of demons?

[Come to think of it, my family seems to have a special affinity with the fairy clan. ]

[The eldest brother falls in love with a fox spirit, and the second sister falls in love with the spider spirit's child.]

Lu Yanshi: ???

Come here, where is his knife? He can't sit still anymore, he must be the evil man who hits the cuckoo with a stick.

How could his daughter marry the son of a goblin?
