Wanbao Lady

Moreover, looking at the yin aura emanating from this ghost woman, it doesn't sound like the aura that an evil ghost would have.

It was strange. He had just felt an evil aura here not long ago, and at that time the ghost woman was clearly a fallen evil ghost.

How come this evil spirit disappeared in just a moment?

And what he was wearing was not human skin, but cardboard!

The local god of Luohua Town subconsciously raised the tip of his staff upwards.

His expression changed.

He asked, "What's wrong with you, you ghost? Why are you wearing a layer of paper?"

The ghost woman breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the old man's attitude change.

Then he told his story.

However, she was still cautious, fearing to cause trouble for Empress Wanbao, so she replaced Empress Wanbao with the master in all her words.

The master felt sorry for her, so he helped her.

She also promised the master that once her daughter was settled, she would voluntarily be taken away by the ghost when the time came.

After hearing the whole story, even the landowner of Luohua Town, who hated evil, couldn't help but be moved.

He put down his crutches completely.

With a wave of his sleeves, the air wall that blocked Qiao'er disappeared.

"mother!"

Qiao'er ran over quickly and helped the ghost woman up.

Looking at the close relationship between the mother and daughter, the land owner of Luohua Town sighed.

As for the affairs of this world, he has no control over them unless the person is extremely virtuous or extremely evil.

Therefore, even though he felt angry at the beastly husband of this evil woman, he could do nothing about it.

However, the cycle of nature is unpredictable.

Once that beast dies and goes to the underworld, hehe.

But he has an easy time!

The land god of Luohua Town raised his eyes and issued a warning to those who were curiously peeking at this place in secret.

Those who were peeping felt that the air around them seemed to be thicker, making it hard for them to breathe.

I had to leave in shame.

After everyone left, the land god of Luohua Town bowed solemnly to the ghost woman.

"I am the landowner of Luohua Town. I was reckless for a moment and I am sorry for offending you."

The ghost woman suddenly became at a loss.

This...the God of Land actually apologized to me?

In her eyes, the God of Land is a god, more powerful and noble than the officials in the world of the living.

But such a being would actually apologize to his lowly self for his own misjudgment!

The ghost woman couldn't describe the feeling, she just felt warm in her heart.

Then I thought, this is God!

She waved her hands in panic.

"It's okay, it's okay. God of Land, please don't be like this..."

The atmosphere gradually became harmonious.

The God of Land of Luohua Town looked at the sky and said, "There is still more than half an hour before the liu shi, you should go quickly."

The ghost woman was overjoyed, and took her daughter by the hand and bowed, saying, "Thank you, God of Land, for your help!"

She understood that the God of Land was turning a blind eye.

I won't pursue this matter any further.

"Qiao'er, let's go!"

"Ok!"

Watching the mother and daughter walking away.

The landowner of Luohua Town couldn't help but laugh and scolded, "Xu Laogou, you let someone in without telling me! I'll trick you into giving me some good wine!"

Then he laughed and left.

-

Half an hour later.

The ghost woman and her daughter stood outside the gate of an elegant courtyard.

There was a plaque on the door with the words "Pingshi Embroidery Shop" written on it.

"Qiao'er, we're here."

The ghost woman looked at her daughter and said with a complicated tone.

But she didn't say much in the end. Instead, she stepped forward and knocked on the door politely.

But no one responded for a long time.

The ghost woman also knew that she came at the wrong time.

It’s getting late, I guess everyone has gone to bed!

But for the sake of her daughter, she resolutely knocked on the door again.

After a while, an old voice came from inside the door.

"Who is it? It's so late, what's the matter?"

Then the door opened, and an old woman dressed in dark clothes and with sleepy eyes appeared in front of the ghost woman.

The ghost lady smiled kindly and said, "Hello, old man. I'm sorry to bother you so late. Can I meet your boss lady?"

The old woman looked them both up and down.

A woman who couldn't be more ordinary.

a little girl.

Strangely, the woman had a cloth tied around her forehead.

The cloth was supposed to be used to tie the hair up, but the woman tied it around her forehead instead.

As a result, her hair had nothing to hold back and just hung down.

The old woman frowned slightly.

He asked cautiously, "What do you want from my shopkeeper?"

The ghost woman smiled and said, "It's like this, I would like to ask your boss's wife to see if she can take in my daughter."

Then she lowered her eyes.

"I... have no choice but to leave her after tonight. I want to entrust her to a trustworthy family."

The ghost lady said sincerely: "I heard that you take in women with good hands and talents. It just so happens that my daughter Qiao'er is very good at embroidery and has been appreciated by your boss! I was wondering if I could..."

He looked at the hopeful eyes of the strange woman in front of him, and then looked at the well-behaved and cute little girl beside her.

The old woman finally nodded.

"Wait a minute, I'll go and tell my shopkeeper."

"Well, thank you!"

The door was closed by the old woman.

As the ghost woman waited anxiously and expectantly, the door opened again.

A lady with a dignified and graceful appearance came out.

The old woman from before stood beside her holding a lantern.

The proprietress of the embroidery shop looked at the ghost woman calmly.

He also immediately noticed the strangeness of the woman in front of him.

But she didn't ask any more questions, instead she said slowly, "You said you wanted me to take in your daughter at Pingshi Embroidery Manor?"

The ghost woman pulled Qiao'er in front of her.

"Hey, yes, look, this is my daughter, her name is Qiao'er, you praised her embroidery skills before!"

The proprietress lowered her eyes and saw the little girl's face in the light of the lantern.

"what?"

It seems familiar.

She took another closer look.

Sure enough, I have seen this girl before.

She remembered it immediately.

It is true that this little girl is very good at embroidery at such a young age.

She was impressed.

As for this woman... I've never seen her.

But she vaguely remembered that the girl's mother didn't look like this!

Did I remember it wrong?

She was more careful.

Then he squatted down and looked at Qiao'er, saying kindly, "I remember you. Where are your relatives?"

Qiao'er said obediently: "My father doesn't want me anymore and wants to sell me. This is my mother, she brought me here."

The boss lady's eyes softened a little.

But, this woman is actually Qiao'er's mother?

Did I really remember it wrong?

The proprietress looked at the ghost woman and said, "You said you had a compelling reason to leave Qiao'er. Is it convenient for you to tell me? If it's not convenient, forget it."

The ghost woman was bitter.

Of course she couldn't tell the truth.

She was afraid of scaring her.

I could only shake my head in pain.

Looking at the ghost woman like this, the proprietress sighed, not knowing what she was thinking of.

"If you don't want to tell me, forget it. I don't think any mother would be willing to leave her child unless she had no other choice."
