"There's a ghost! There's a ghost! It's haunted inside!!!"
Liu Sanniang ran frantically to the courtyard. The girls had just finished their porridge and were about to wash the dishes. The maids on the other side were still doing chores.
Liu Sanniang rushed over and grabbed a woman at random: "Quick, go catch the ghost! There is a ghost in there! That woman is alive again!"
The woman was a little confused and could not react.
The girls sitting there looked at each other one after another.
Liu Sanniang grabbed Yu Ma next to her and said, "Quick, go and have a look!"
"What are you yelling about?" Aunt Feng came over and said, "Those cooks have just gone to bed after a busy day. Why are you making such noise here?"
"Ghost!" Liu Sanniang didn't compete with Aunt Feng for the first time. She ran to hold her forearm and pointed at the cabin, "Go and have a look, it's really haunted inside!"
"Are you crazy?" Aunt Feng shook her hand away unceremoniously, "Don't touch me."
The other servants in the yard gathered around curiously. They all looked towards the wooden house over there, and then back to Liu Sanniang's current appearance.
"Don't you believe me too?" Liu Sanniang looked at the two servants who were closer to her on weekdays and gasped, "Come with me to see if it's really her, it's really her! You're not afraid of her.
Come to take revenge on us, what if it’s true?”
When she said this, her voice started to sound like crying.
The women around were looking at her. Mrs. Liang, who was closer to Aunt Feng, was a little uneasy by Liu Sanniang's appearance and whispered: "Yes, if it is true, why don't we go and take a look? Take advantage of it."
There are so many people now.”
Aunt Feng also felt embarrassed and looked back at the wooden house.
"Let's go take a look." The woman on Liu Sanniang's side picked up the washing machine and said, "We can't let anything happen again now. We're tired of looking at it in the front yard."
"Why should they bother us?" Ms. Liang muttered, "The woman who burned the house today was not all because of..."
Aunt Feng hurriedly pushed her with her elbow.
Mrs. Liang's face turned pale, she looked at everyone present warily, and did not dare to speak any more.
"Let's go and have a look." Aunt Feng said, "There must be a reason why she was scared like this. Maybe it's because that girl is too evil. If she is being evil, then she should be beaten to death and thrown away."
As she said that, she went to the ruins and picked up a half-burned piece of wood, and walked towards the wooden house first.
"Let's go." Mrs. Liang shouted and followed.
A few girls who were bolder and full of curiosity put down the bowls in their hands, hesitated, but also followed in that direction.
The wooden house was bolted from the outside, and the woman next to Liu Sanniang went up to pull out the wood. It was dark inside, and the moonlight came in through the screen window, and the potholes on the dirt floor could be vaguely seen.
Liu Sanniang turned pale and did not dare to go in. She grabbed the hand of her confidant and hid behind.
Aunt Feng didn't dare to step forward and pushed Mrs. Liang out.
Liang held a torch in one hand and a mallet in the other, looking forward.
The wooden house is not very big, with a small partition in the middle. Other than that, there are some random piles of wood in the corners.
The torch swept around the room, but found nothing. There was no sign of the girl at all.
"No, there's no one." Mrs. Liang stammered and looked at Aunt Feng in horror.
Aunt Feng tried her best to stay calm, looked around, and pointed to the window: "Over there, did you escape through the window?"
"Go and have a look!" Liu Sanniang casually pushed another servant girl up.
The servant girl didn't dare, so she timidly walked away.
Mrs. Liang also followed with a torch.
"No, it's not." The maid checked, then turned around and said, "The window is bolted from the inside."
"Over there." Aunt Feng pointed to several other windows.
The maid and Mrs. Liang went over to check them one by one, shaking their heads and saying, "No, they are all bolted from the inside."
"Then, where is she?" Aunt Feng couldn't believe it. She turned her head to look at the wooden house, and then quietly looked at the beams.
It was so dark that she was afraid that a human face would suddenly appear, or a pair of smiling but cold eyes.
"She can't really be..." said a servant girl who had a good relationship with Liu Sanniang.
"Yu, Mom Yu." A girl's voice sounded nervously.
Everyone in the room looked back.
Liu Sanniang also turned around and saw the girl standing behind. She screamed and retreated into the house.
"What are you doing!" Liu Sanniang stepped on Aunt Feng's foot and was pushed aside by Aunt Feng angrily.
Qian Qianqian held Xia Zhaoyi's hand and looked at them timidly: "Are you looking for her..."
Everyone followed the pointer and focused their attention on the girl next to her.
The little girl was covered in injuries, her eyes were frightened, and her hands were shaking uneasily. When she caught their gaze, she lowered her head in shock.
"What's going on?" Aunt Feng said in a deep voice and walked out of the room.
Qian Qianqian didn't dare to speak anymore. She was also trembling, and her legs were so weak that she wanted to kneel down.
Xia Zhaoyi swallowed her saliva and said with difficulty: "Just now, there was a fire outside just now. Qianqian was afraid that the fire would come to my side, so she came to let me out. I..." She choked and cried.
, "I know I shouldn't escape, I'm just afraid..."
"Okay," Aunt Feng shouted, "were you outside just now?"
Xia Zhaoyi sobbed and did not answer.
Qian Qianqian on the side nodded: "Yes, Ah Li said it was too dark inside and she didn't dare to go back. She hid behind us when the porridge was being distributed..."
"You lied," Liu Sanniang shouted immediately, "Then who was the person I saw in the house just now?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes widened and she was frightened again.
The maids next to her also had goosebumps, and some secretly wanted to stay away from her.
"No, it won't be." Liu Sanniang's mind was a little confused. She looked at Xia Zhaoyi and suddenly rushed to grab her shoulders, "It's you. The person I saw in the room just now is you, right? You
This female ghost is you!"
"Wow!" The little girl was shaken violently, opened her mouth, and cried loudly.
"Why are you crying?" Aunt Feng stepped forward and shouted, "If you cry again, I will pull out your tongue."
The girl stopped and bit her mouth tightly, almost burping from holding it in.
"It can't be her," Aunt Feng pulled away Liu Sanniang's hand from Xia Zhaoyi's, "I was distributing porridge here just now. After you ran out, no one came out. Now the windows are all opened from the inside.
It's bolted, there's no way she could have gone in."
"Then who is the person I saw inside?" Liu Sanniang shouted, reaching out and pointing at Xia Zhaoyi, "It's her, it must be her."
Then he stepped forward and grabbed Xia Zhaoyi's shoulders: "Did you run out secretly? Tell me, didn't you?"
"Are you really scared or are you pretending," Ms. Liang cried out as she was sleepy to death, "If she were really a ghost, would you still dare to go up and grab her shoulders like this? It's so late at night, Liu Sanniang, what on earth do you want to do?"
"She is a ghost!"
"How can a ghost let you do this? If she was really a ghost, I'm afraid you would have died when you were alone in the house just now." Mrs. Liang scolded angrily, turning to leave, "I'm going to bed, I'm too lazy to care about you, crazy woman."
After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped and looked at Aunt Feng beside her.
Aunt Feng met her eyes.
Mrs. Liang paused, then whispered something into Aunt Feng's ear, and Aunt Feng's eyes lit up.
Liu Sanniang looked at them, feeling slightly uneasy in her heart.
"Did the woman who was killed today make you scared?" Aunt Feng looked at Liu Sanniang and asked.
Liu Sanniang said nothing, not knowing what she wanted to do, for fear of falling into some trap.
"You came here just now to look for this girl, but she wasn't even there. Liu Sanniang, are you crazy?" Aunt Feng continued.
"I really saw her!" Liu Sanniang shouted and looked at Xia Zhaoyi again.
This time Xia Zhaoyi took the lead and hid behind Qian Qianqian and the girls, crying: "I'm really not in there."
"It's you!" Liu Sanniang became more and more excited and stepped forward to catch Xia Zhaoyi. "If it wasn't you, it would be a ghost. Stop right there!"
The girls screamed and ran away, and Xia Zhaoyi got into the middle of the girls.
Liu Sanniang reached out to grab them randomly, and even picked up a wooden stick on the side to beat them.
The two servants who were close to her quickly stopped her.
"That's enough!" Aunt Feng shouted.
Liu Sanniang didn't care at all and went crazy to catch Xia Zhaoyi.
"She is really crazy," one of the girls cried, "she is crazy, she is going to kill us!"
"Stop her," Aunt Feng yelled, "stop doing this!"
All the maids ran up and several of them stopped Liu Sanniang who was struggling desperately.
"Let me go, it's her! I'm going to kill her!" Liu Sanniang completely lost her mind.
"There are not enough people in the backyard, and you have to give a reason for killing people. If you kill people for no reason, then who will do our job?" Aunt Feng said coldly, "On the one hand, you are afraid of her and say she is a ghost, but on the other hand, you are like this
Are you afraid of her or not if you hold her tight? And you suddenly said there is something evil inside, and the next time you imply that she is acting like a ghost, Liu Sanniang, what on earth do you want to do?"
Liu Sanniang's mind was completely confused. She didn't know what she wanted to express. She struggled hard: "Let me go!!!"
"Liu Sanniang is crazy," Aunt Feng looked at the women, "lock her up in the basement."
Everyone was stunned.
The underground room is where the woman in gray was imprisoned.
Liu Sanniang's head was buzzing and she screamed and roared: "What qualifications do you have to imprison me? Let me go!"
"Because you're crazy!" Aunt Feng's voice was already high-pitched, but it became louder and louder as she raised her voice, "If I don't lock you up, what if you burn this place down too? What else can I burn for you? Over there in the front yard.
I'm going to tell you to take her away quickly."
"Let me go! Let me go!!"
Although she was born strong and tall, she was no match for these women who were also used to doing rough work, so it was useless to struggle.
Xia Zhaoyi watched her being taken away, raising her hands to wipe the tears from her face, her expression still depressed and sad.
Liu Sanniang suddenly turned around and found her in the crowd, her eyes filled with hatred: "Ah Li! It's you!!"
Xia Zhaoyi hid behind Qian Qianqian in fear, hiding herself from the crowd. She smiled suddenly at Liu Sanniang and raised her hand to touch her belly.
Liu Sanniang was stunned to the ground, and then she shouted hoarsely: "It's her! It's really her!"
