C9

Seeing the reactions of the eighth uncle and his wife, I, who were originally confused, vaguely knew that there must be something wrong with the stove. Furthermore, it was a question that made the couple's heart hurt.

Raising his eyebrows to look at Liu Kunsheng, he saw his cold expression, his pitch-black pupils contracted into a line, concealing a frightening storm.

I was afraid that he would do something out of line, so I tried to stretch my hand out to pull him. However, he turned his head abruptly and his handsome face had a ferocious expression.

Seeing that it was me, something quickly flashed across his face. In the blink of an eye, he became extremely gentle. He stretched out his hand and quietly led me along. "Let them smash the stove before going overboard."

After saying that, he tightly embraced me. His strength seemed to want to melt my bones and blood. Then, in the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

I reached for him, but I couldn't even reach for the hem of his shirt.

Eighth uncle and the others cried so much that they woke up the baby in their arms, and then the whole family woke up. Eighth uncle's son thought that I had done something and glared fiercely at me.

Ceng Xiaoqiang wanted to stop her, but the mother of the baby held her back and questioned her.

When I saw that the man's palm was about to land on my body, I felt my waist tighten.

When I turned around, I discovered that Liu Kunsheng had returned after leaving for an unknown period of time. With a single arm around me, I coldly looked at the man, and with a raise of my hand, I tapped him lightly. With a wave of my sleeve, the stove, which had been there for an unknown number of years, shattered with a bang.

White bones were exposed inside the crumbling brick soil. Those bones were very small, as if they were the bones of a baby.

Because they were built into the stove, some of the bones had already been burned black, and some of them had even shattered into pieces along with the stove.

The stove was divided into three large and small stoves, and under each stovepipe were hidden bones. It was obvious that there was more than one baby's corpse.

The eighth uncle's son didn't expect the situation to turn out like this. Looking at the stove, he was stunned. He turned to look at the eighth uncle and asked with fear, "What is this?"

"Let's go." Liu Kunsheng hugged me and walked out, and didn't even look at the family once.

When Ceng Xiaoqiang saw me walking out, he anxiously wanted to chase me down, but he did not know why Liu Kunsheng waved his hand. He walked as if he was knocked down by something, and fell down heavily onto the ground.

I wanted to go back and help him, but Liu Kunsheng held me tightly and walked out with big steps.

He didn't move quickly, but the scenery on both sides of him quickly retreated. In the blink of an eye, the willow tree that I gave him for twenty years appeared in front of me.

Liu Kunsheng seemed to be in an extremely bad mood, as he placed me down the moment he arrived there. He gently stroked the willow tree, and even his hands were trembling slightly.

I suddenly remembered, it was as if Liu Kunsheng was hiding inside that willow tree, but the last time I checked, that willow tree didn't even have a thumb-sized hole, where exactly is he hiding?

My heart went cold. Thinking about Liu Kunsheng's sudden anger, it can't be that he didn't choose to hide in the willow tree, right?

His heart suddenly hurt a little. Thinking about how he left and then came back, I'm afraid he was worried that I would make a move.

I reached out and pulled him, trying to comfort him, but I realized that I didn't know where he came from, why he was sealed in this willow tree, why he saved my father twenty years ago, why he married me now …

Everything seemed to be a blur!

As if sensing my intentions, he held me tightly in his arms and whispered, "Will you be afraid of me one day?"

I was about to ask him if there was anything that would frighten me.

He suddenly released me, looked at the willow tree and said, "Let's go."

After sending me home, Liu Kunsheng immediately disappeared. I lied on the bed and turned the stove with the dense white bones, and the willow tree that swayed in the wind.

The next morning, Ceng Xiaoqiang came back before I could wake up. He didn't bring the commission for my eighth uncle's family but brought a hundred grains of rice for me instead. At the same time, he told me the result of his eighth uncle's family incident.

I've always wondered why there was a baby's skeleton on the stove, and why it looked so old, all these years without anything going on, but now it was hard to imagine that the boy had turned into a girl every month.

But when I heard what Ceng Xiaoqiang had told me, I felt cold inside.

The infant's bones in the stove were not the children of others, but the flesh and blood of eighth uncle and his wife. The only difference was that they were all girls, with a total of four skeletons.

In those days, when family planning was like a tornado, but he valued his sons more than his daughters, the eighth uncle didn't want to raise a daughter in order to have a son.

When his wife gave birth to the first girl, who didn't know what to do, he had an idea and set up the stove.

The baby was small in size, and no one could tell from the small cooking stove that he had planned to burn every day.

The second time he cooked, when the second time he was a girl, he set up a medium stove by the small cooking stove.

The third was a pair of girls, and it happened to be their turn, so they went in together.

No matter how others guessed or searched, no one would ever think that someone was so crazy and numb as to build his own daughter's corpse into the stove where they cooked every day, so no one would even notice.

I don't know if the eighth uncle would have continued to lay the bones on the stove if he hadn't given birth to a son, or how he and his wife had cooked and eaten every day with the bones of their four daughters.

Now I probably know why those ghosts didn't do anything all these years, just let that boy become a girl, maybe they used this method to punish eighth uncle and the others.

I confiscated the 100 grains of rice and told him to bring them back.

After my first experience, I could probably understand what it meant to be grateful.

This Mi was most likely coming from Ceng Xiaoqiang. Not only did he not show kindness or virtue, he even had the resentment of a baby girl, which did not help to dispel the resentment of the virgin girl in the palanquin.

Seeing that I was not in a good mood, Ceng Xiaoqiang did not say much and left.

I was still dripping blood into the sedan chair. I had gone through so much trouble to take in two more trades, but one of them ended up in vain. I didn't know when I would be able to solve this problem and allow my father to be safe.

My eighth uncle's son is actually not that much older than me. My parents were born with family planning, but they raised me without any complaints, not to mention that I didn't even have a chance to be reborn. Since I was young, they have treated me like a treasure.

Just as I was thinking, my mother suddenly opened the door and entered. I hurriedly put away the bag containing the palanquin ashes and asked her what was the matter.

She smiled and asked about my opinion of Ceng Xiaoqiang. Because something had happened to him, my father betrothed me to the mountain god, and then married my father.

Although I'm now officially married to father snake, it's only a matter of name. I can't possibly guard a snake for the rest of my life, can I?

They also wanted to see me happy, and my father couldn't sleep well every night, so if that destroyed me, he would rather just lie in bed for the rest of his life.

Mother spoke seriously. Although she tried her best to hold back her tears and smile as she spoke, her tone became choked with sobs. However, my father stood quietly by the door and did not come in. He looked down at his feet.

I looked at Liu Kunsheng who was lying on the side quietly, as though he had no bones. I didn't know how to comfort her, so I told her that she shouldn't rush this matter, wait until I settle the marriage contract with the mountain god, and then we would see what the situation was.

My mother kept nodding her head, telling me not to worry, but to think carefully, or else my father would regret it until he died.

"Isn't it better to marry me? Why can't you stay with me for the rest of my life? " Once my mother left, Liu Kunsheng hugged me tightly and stared straight at me, as if he was looking into the depths of my soul.

I didn't know how to answer him, so I only chuckled and said, "In their eyes, marrying you is like not marrying you. After all, you can't accompany me throughout my life to grow old, and you can't let me live a peaceful life.

"What about you?" Liu Kunsheng's pupils constricted, and her voice became hoarse: "You also think marrying me is the same as not marrying me? I can't let you live a peaceful life? "

"That's why you got Ceng Xiaoqiang to send you off so attentively and even gave him everything you had, so you wanted him to accept you?" Liu Kunsheng's voice slowly turned cold, his eyes slowly became long, and the fierce light gradually appeared in his eyes.
