Shi Liu felt her worldview explode, and asked in confusion, "That old woman isn't afraid? My daughter-in-law died in that well, and she's still going there to fetch water."
Su Sanlan curled her lips relentlessly: "The people of Baijia Village don't have any taboos about those things. After that incident, the villagers still went to the well to draw water. If that woman refused to go, that would make people suspicious."
Shi Liu thought about it and realized that it was true, but they really didn't feel disgusted.
Before Shi Liu could think about it, Yang the Matchmaker said, "Things change so fast. Who knows how many lonely ghosts there are in the underground? Maybe we are actually standing on someone's grave."
Shi Liu felt so cold after hearing what he said that he didn't know where to put his feet.
"Let me continue. After that woman, two more women died one after another. When the investigation was conducted, they all had murder cases. The others who had done nothing wrong were also terrified. The young wives who had just married in were all wanting divorces. The young wife who came to see me was very doted on by her parents. They were worried that something might happen to her if she stayed any longer, so they simply forced her to divorce."
"As long as there's one person who starts this kind of thing, others will follow suit. There are so many men in the mountains who can't find wives. These days, there are no girls who can't get married."
Shi Liu felt that what Yang Po said made a lot of sense, and she was well aware of the horror of the backlash of the fortune-changing formation. The choice of these young wives was wise. If they did not get away quickly, once they were completely marked as members of the Bai family, what awaited them would be misfortune and death for the rest of their lives.
As for the dead old woman and others, Shi Liu guessed that it was not the evil spirits that took their lives. Perhaps it was retribution for the bad debts they had owed in the past because of their bad luck, or it was just an accident.
However, this kind of thing will change as it spreads, and it is natural for people to panic.
Su Sanlan and Matchmaker Yang got along quite well, and they sat together for an hour or two.
When Shi Liu returned home and found Zhou Pan had come, she happily walked up to him and asked, "Why are you here? Didn't you say you were busy the other day?"
Zhou Pan touched Shi Liu's hand and found it was cold. He quickly helped to warm it: "Why didn't you wear gloves when you went out? What if you get frostbite? Otherwise, I'll go back and see if there is a hand warmer and find one for you."
Shi Liu regretted her decision only after she walked out. The cotton-padded jacket she wore today had no pockets, but if she were to put her hands inside the sleeves like her mother, she would feel that it was not polite, so she could only clench her fists and endure the cold.
"No need to look for a hand warmer. It's troublesome to use. I'll just buy a pair of cotton gloves later."
Su Sanlan then realized her daughter's hands were frozen purple. "Oh, it's all my fault for forgetting to remind you. It's my son-in-law who's attentive. Shi Liu, sit down. I'll get you some hot water to soak your hands and put some medicine on them. Don't let them get frostbite. Once you get frostbite, it's very difficult to heal. You might even have it for years."
Without waiting for her mother-in-law's instructions, Mrs. Shi hurriedly brought over a basin of warm water: "Sister, warm your hands quickly."
Seeing this, Su Sanlan gave her an appreciative look with satisfaction. This daughter-in-law finally showed some consideration today.
When Mrs. Shi felt her mother-in-law's praise, she was so excited that her whole body was shaking, and she wished she could get another basin of water to wash her sister-in-law's feet.
Shi Liu felt uneasy at the gentle look of her sister-in-law, and she felt that something was wrong with her sister-in-law today.
Feeling her fingers were no longer stiff, Shi Liu took her hand out, and Zhou Pan carefully applied the ointment on her. Shi Liu felt uncomfortable being stared at by her family while applying the ointment, but Zhou Pan never cared about other people's eyes and applied the ointment slowly.
Su Sanlan had no idea that her daughter was uncomfortable. She was now a typical mother-in-law who was becoming more and more satisfied with her son-in-law the more she looked at him. Fortunately, Pomegranate was still the most important person in her heart.
After all the busy work, Zhou Pan finally had time to talk about other things: "That group of people have been taken away. We have some free time now, so we took some time to come and take a look."
Shi Liu didn't quite understand these things and didn't dare to ask too much. After all, it was better not to know many things, so she turned to talk about other things.
"Has Baijia Village said what to do? We can't let them go on like this. I heard several people died. If this continues, I'm starting to doubt whether Baijia Village will even exist."
Zhou Pan frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "The Bai Family Village is actually responsible for what happened. Don't think those children are innocent. Since they have enjoyed the benefits of the Bai family, they must naturally bear the consequences of their karma. Every sip and every bite has its own laws."
After being taught by the two Master Bais, Shi Liu naturally knew that many things were not as simple as they seemed. Besides, those children were able to be reincarnated into Baijia Village, so they probably had some problems in their previous lives, and they deserved to go through this. Of course, from the perspective of this life, they were somewhat innocently implicated.
"Does that mean you don't care?"
In fact, Shi Liu didn't care too much about this matter, but if it continued like this, many wives who married into the family would probably get divorced.
"It's not that I don't intend to intervene, it's just that it's difficult to do so. This kind of backlash is all related to cause and effect. Most masters are simply unwilling to wade into this muddy water. After all, in their view, the Bai family deserved what they did."
If it were him, Zhou Pan would not be willing to care about the affairs of Baijia Village. Although the way of heaven is ruthless, it always leaves a glimmer of hope.
Although Baijia Village will be severely damaged, if the people of Baijia Village can seize the opportunity, they may be able to revive. It all depends on how they do it. However, based on his understanding of Baijia Village during this period of time, only a few villagers understand right from wrong and still have some conscience.
"Shi Liu, you'd better not have too close contact with the Bai family. Judging from the way the Bai family behaves, they are the kind of people who can't live comfortably themselves, and others can't expect to live comfortably either." Zhou Pan was a little worried that Shi Liu was being plotted against.
Shi Liu has been studying away from home and rarely comes into contact with people from other villages, but her mother and brothers and sisters-in-law often come into contact with them.
"After the spring, the entire production team will work together. We can't just stop interacting with each other."
Hearing Shi Liu's concerns, Zhou Pan immediately said, "I'm worried. I guess after the spring, there will be documents issued, and your production team may be re-divided."
Shi Liu's eyes suddenly lit up: "So Baijia Village will form its own production team in the future. That would be great."
Brother Shi interrupted and said, "If this is true, it's a great thing. Most of the people in Baijia Village are dishonest. It's common for them to cheat and slack off at work. Whoever works with them will be in trouble. Everyone in our village is fed up with them."
Third Brother Shi was a sloppy worker. If he teamed up with the Bai family, his work points for the day would definitely be terrible. After all, he couldn't do the work of two people. "Finally, I won't have to endure that humiliation anymore."
When Shi Erge and others thought of Shi Sange's blood and tears history, they almost laughed out loud. Shi Sange even looked down on the people in Baijia Village, saying that their work was just as good as theirs. The eldest brother also looked down on the second brother. It was the same for them.
Su Sanlan knocked Shi Sange's head in annoyance: "You are a man with a wife and children, but you can't just work hard and still have the nerve to look down on others!"
Brother Shi San held his head and wailed: "Ahhhhhh——"
