Chapter 96: Ghost Summoning (Part 2)

Because of Yang Qingshan’s actions, she felt like there was finally someone she could fall back upon.

Her stepmother had done everything to make her life difficult. However, the fact that Yang Qingshan could say this in front of so many people was enough to prove his heart. At least for now, he was standing by her side to protect her.

Liu Ju’er was not afraid of suffering or being wronged. What she was afraid of was that no one would love her.

Yang Qingshan’s care made Liu Ju’er feel warm and sweet.

She was such a woman. All she needed was a little love.

Granny Zhou was stunned for a moment. She looked at Madam Zhou. The latter almost could not maintain the smile on her face. However, she still nodded at her.

When Granny Zhou received Madam Zhou’s instructions, she looked at Yang Qingshan lovingly and reached out to help Liu Ju’er and Yang Qingshan stand up.

The villagers were stunned. No one said a word. They believed in Granny Zhou without a doubt and felt a little afraid. After all, Yang Qingshan’s mother had passed away. It was better not to say anything. What if they said something wrong and she came back to haunt them?

Granny Zhou said again, “Woospiedoo.”

Madam Zhou said, “Don’t worry. My daughter will definitely be a good daughter-in-law and serve Qingshan well. I promise you that you will have a chubby grandson next year.”

Liu Ju’er was only 15 years old. Given how weak her body was, if she gave birth, she’d very likely die.

Yang Qingshan frowned. “Mom, don’t worry. In five years, I will definitely have a son and a daughter.”

Liu Ju’er’s body was too weak, and they still lived in a thatched house. He did not want to have a child so early. At least, he would wait until Liu Ju’er was a few years older.

Granny Zhou looked anxious. “Hothagow othagare yothagou.”

Madam Zhou said, “My daughter is not an indecent woman. She really likes your son. You don’t have to worry about that.”

Granny Zhou carried on with the gibberish. “Cothagall mothage.”

Granny Zhou’s acting was very realistic. Her worried and anxious expression made the villagers believe her whole-heartedly.

Madam Zhou said to Liu Ju’er, “Ju’er, your mother-in-law is worried. Do something to reassure her. It’s all for the sake of the child. Ju’er, express your sincerity and let your mother-in-law go in peace. Your father-in-law is watching from the side and waiting for you to express your sincerity.”

Liu Ju’er immediately felt the pressure. She looked up at Madam Zhou and said with difficulty, “Mom, what should I do?”

Madam Zhou looked troubled. “I wouldn’t know even if you asked me.”

Although Madam Zhou said that she did not know, she was already overjoyed.

If Liu Ju’er was humiliated in front of so many people, Yang Qingshan would definitely dispise her and treat her as a slave in the future.

Madam Zhou suddenly clapped her hands and seemed to have thought of a way. “How about this? Put Ju’er in a red sack and let Qingshan grab her.”

Granny Zhou looked satisfied. “Yothagou.”

It was obvious from her expression that she was satisfied with this approach.

Madam Zhou smiled and walked to Liu Ju’er’s side. “Ju’er, don’t blame your mother-in-law for making you do that. She only came up once, and she won’t stay here for long. Just satisfy her wish.”

Liu Ju’er felt like she was suffocating. However, she knew that if she did not nod, she would not be able to get through this.

If she was put in a sack and dragged along, wouldn’t she be like an animal?

Madam Zhou clearly wanted to destroy Liu Ju’er’s dignity as a human.

Why did she have to go so far?

Liu Ju’er nodded with difficulty.

Yang Qingshan frowned. “Mother, time will tell. If you were in heaven, you would have seen it too. There’s no hurry. Father, Mother, don’t worry.”

After saying that, Yang Qingshan knelt down and kowtowed to Granny Zhou.

Madam Zhou said sternly, “Qingshan, stop that. There’s a red sack in the dowry that Ju’er brought. I’ll go get it now. Just please your mother. Besides, she’s also Ju’er’s mother-in-law. As her daughter-in-law, how can she not listen to her?”

Madam Zhou turned around and went into the room to get the sack.

Granny Zhou looked at Yang Qingshan with a serious gaze. Madam Zhou had chosen the poorest possible man for Liu Ju’er. However, Madam Zhou had misjudged Yang Qingshan.

Since she was cooperating with Madam Zhou to put on a show, she naturally couldn’t quit now.

A cool breeze blew around them, making them shiver.

Granny Zhou was just putting on an act, so she naturally couldn’t tell what suddenly happened.

She felt a chill run down her spine, and her pupils constricted. She was a witch, so she naturally had some abilities. However, most of the time, she was just acting to deceive the people who hired her. Summoning the dead wasn’t something she was capable of.

What Madam Zhou wanted was for her stepdaughter to live in misery for the rest of her life. Granny Zhou only needed to put on an act, and there was no need for her to do it for real. However, she was also someone who had performed real witchcraft before. When this chill ran down her spine, she knew immediately that something was wrong.

However, before Granny Zhou could say anything, she lost control of herself.

Madam Zhou came out with a red sack and said with a smile, “Qingshan, come and tie it up for Ju’er. Hurry up, so that your mother can leave in peace. Ju’er is a good girl. She won’t blame you.”

Liu Ju’er could not say a word. Madam Zhou had already stuffed the red sack into Yang Qingshan’s hands. Yang Qingshan was extremely unwilling to do so. Liu Ju’er was his wife. How could he put his wife into a red sack and treat her like an animal. It could potentially stifle her.

Madam Zhou smiled as she looked at Yang Qingshan, her heart joyful. Today was the happiest day of her life.

In the future, she would be very happy whenever she thought about it. No one noticed that when Granny Zhou had walked up to Madam Zhou. She suddenly reached out and grabbed Madam Zhou’s hair.

Madam Zhou exclaimed. “Ah…”
