Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!

"Well, it's called a corpse puppet. The person being controlled must be soaked in drugs, nourished by animal blood, and fed with poisonous insects and human corpses. Most importantly, the person being controlled must witness their closest loved one die in front of them. A hole must be knocked in their head, and mercury must be poured into their throat. Only then can the puppet be controlled."

"I've seen it before when I was searching for gold. I witnessed the refining process myself. I never thought that after a thousand years, this thing would actually develop intelligence."

The branches of the gold-seeking tree wrapped the corpse puppet and became its nutrients.

The big yin thing is also one of its nutrients.

"How cruel." Guoan held Xiaohei's foot with a look of fear on his face.

A cluster of strange fire shot up from Yaoyao's fingertips and was thrown onto the corpse. The moment the strange fire touched the corpse, there was a loud bang, and not even a trace of ashes was left.

"Go get some exercise. I'm so sleepy." Yaoyao yawned.

Xiao Hei resigned himself to carrying Yaoyao on his back and said, "My dear, it's almost dawn and you are finally feeling tired."

In the sky, Yaoyao gave a book on the low-level method of cultivating spiritual energy into the body to a tuft of white hair and a green snake, and told them to practice according to the book first, and come to her if they meet anyone who can't read.

Guoan moved to Yaoyao's side and said, "Sister, what about me?"

His sister is partial to him. She only gave the cultivation technique to Mouse and Long Chongchong but not to him. Guoan said he was very jealous.

"GuoGuo, I'll take care of the mud myself tomorrow."

After saying this, Yaoyao lay on Xiaohei's back and fell asleep.

Guo Anle was grinning, completely unaware that his good days were over.

The more proud Guoan is, the more envious the White Hair and Green Snake are.

After all, he is my biological brother, so different. He taught me personally. Unlike them, they can only come to her when they don’t know a word.

But they are smart animals, what can a mere word do to them?

After several months of drilling holes in the wall to steal light, they already knew a lot of words.

When it was bright outside, Old Lady Liu got up and saw Guoan sleeping soundly on the side of the bed.

"Why doesn't this kid go to bed after peeing?"

Then he got up and carried Guoan inside to sleep, changed his clothes and went to Shen Chulan's room to see Yaoyao.

Yaoyao was sleeping soundly on Xiaohei's back, a pool of suspicious liquid dripping onto Xiaohei's snow-white fur. The soil from the big pot where a tree was planted on the table had somehow fallen onto the table, making it dirty.

"How did this soil come out? Could it be that this tree can still grow out of its nest?" Old Mrs. Liu put the soil on the table back into the big basin and watered it.

After cleaning up all these, seeing that her precious granddaughter showed no signs of getting up, Grandma Liu thought of going to her in-laws' house to help first.

As soon as Old Lady Liu left, Xunjinshu came out of the big basin, poured all the soil in the basin outside, and went to the vegetable garden in the backyard to dig a basin of dry soil into it.

Put it back on the table and plant yourself in it.

Xunjinshu sighed, "I don't know how many times this has happened. Every time the owner's family sees it, they habitually water it."

It doesn't need water.

.........

"My dear relatives, when we move into the new house the day after tomorrow, let's go to Qingshui Building to hold the ceremony and invite the whole village to join in the fun." Old Mrs. Liu thought about it all the way before she told Old Mrs. Shen and Old Mrs. Ye what was in her mind.

The two in-laws built a house together, and when the house was built together, the question became who should hold the wedding banquet first.

It just so happened that the village chief calculated the date and found that it was not suitable to move into the new house recently, and the next good days would be too long away.

Old Mrs. Liu decided to do it together.

It also saves trouble.

It just so happens that the day after tomorrow is a good day. If we don’t do it the day after tomorrow, we will have to postpone it.

When Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Ye heard this, they said they had no objection and decided to do it together.

Things are finalized,

The county magistrate was in distress.

why?

It’s because they can’t squeeze any more money out of Governor Jiang.

All the money squeezed from Governor Jiang during this period was used to support the common people and build a new mansion.

It's really not appropriate for a county magistrate to stay at his mother-in-law's house every day.

If the people have any problems, they have to rush over and make them wait for so long.

He had just squeezed 20,000 taels of silver from Magistrate Jiang, but the other party told him openly and secretly that he had no money left. The county magistrate could not accept it for the time being.

What he couldn't understand was that during the nine years when his cousin had replaced him, he had already embezzled so much. It didn't make sense that Magistrate Jiang would only have this little, right?

In short, he would not believe that the other party's warehouse had been robbed.

The county magistrate, unwilling to give up, picked up his pen and wrote again.

First, play the emotional card to move the other person to tears, then write about how difficult your recent life has been. The list was almost stolen.

When Magistrate Jiang saw this, he was so frightened that he sent money over overnight.

He also said in the letter that money is a small matter, we are all brothers in distress, good brothers, you must hide the list well, and tell him first if you have any difficulties.

The county magistrate was in high spirits as he received the 100,000 taels of silver note. It was no wonder that Magistrate Jiang had embezzled so much silver.

This made him start writing again, saying that he was missing something and hoped that Governor Jiang could help him find it.

Adhering to the principle of saving wherever possible, every brick, tile, bowl, chopstick, and grain of rice was written down.

When Governor Jiang received the letter, he was so angry that he ran away on the spot on his horse and headed straight to Wang's house.

I stood at the door but didn't dare to go in, for fear of bad luck.

The parchment was stolen and the three treasure hiding places were dug up completely. Prefect Jiang was worried about how to explain this matter to his superiors.

It's just a little money, just cry to your superiors.

After receiving this huge sum of money, the county magistrate found an excuse to distribute it to the common people.

Old Mrs. Liu cried out that she was sick when she took the money.

"Is your county magistrate ill recently? If so, call a doctor to treat him. Why are you coming to disgust me in your old age?

Why didn't your county magistrate come out to stop the forced conscription? Who are you trying to disgust with the silver now?

Do I need fifty taels of silver from you?"

The yamen runners were particularly innocent, and they had no idea what was going on with the county magistrate.

He suddenly became a different person overnight and became very kind.

People need to be scolded and money needs to be taken. After scolding, Old Lady Liu drove the yamen runners out without even giving them a sip of hot water.

Old Mrs. Liu closed the gate and walked into the house cursing.

"Nana, don't be angry. Anger brings more wrinkles." Yaoyao threw herself into Old Lady Liu's arms with candy in hand. "Eat candy and your mood will improve."

Old Mrs. Liu's heart was about to melt, and she smiled with great happiness with candy in her mouth.

By the bank of a big river, Boss Yuan was carrying two large wooden buckets to fetch water.

"Master, Lieutenant General Luo is going too far. He always orders us to do this and that." Tietou slammed the bucket hard on the water with a look of resentment on his face.

Boss Yuan didn't care when he heard that. "It's okay, it's just a small matter. I, your master, can do it. After you get the water, rest here. I'll come back and help you carry it."
