Hearing this, Mrs. Liu couldn’t help but said: “If that is the case, then let your brother go instead of you. You stay here and work in the field. Your older brother is taller than you. His appetite is bigger than yours. If he goes to the competition in your place, the chance he will win is much higher.”

Bai Erzhu was anxious: “That can’t be done. This good opportunity was found by me. Why should I let older brother do it instead of me? No, I can’t let him do it. I don’t agree.”

The two brothers rushed in the courtyard and fight. No one wants to give in. In the end, Old Lady Bai was forced to take out another 50 copper coins. And let her two sons went to the town.

Zhao Lan was injured, she was not in the house. Bai Dazhu and Bai Erzhu went to the town. They will likely return by the evening. Only old and young women and children were left. No one was willing to work in the field. Old Lady Bai reprimanded her two daughters-in-law but even her grandchildren don’t want to work. So, she only let them rest in the house.

The villagers who passed by their courtyard looked stunned and shook their heads: “I have never seen such a lazy family. At this hour, other family members are working early in the fields, but they only sleep at home.”

After a while, Mrs. Liu came back from the riverside with freshly washed clothes and saw the old lady sitting in the backyard. She busily said with her: “Niang, I just washed the clothes by the river, and guess what I just heard?”

Old Lady Bai gave her a look and deeply sighed. Sh doesn’t have a good feeling about her words: “I didn’t go outside, so how will I know? If you want to say, then say it. If you don’t want to, then don’t.”The old lady released a deep sighed.

What happened yesterday was still gripping her heart with sorrow. Mrs. Liu always helps the old woman in the past all the time. But as a result, this old woman only coldly hummed at her when she arrived?

But, how could Mrs. Liu not know what’s on the old woman’s mind? So, she busily said: “Niang, I just heard that yesterday evening, that dead girl went to the river to wash the clothes. At that time, Yingzi drowned in the river. Hu Feng took her out on the shore, but she was already out of breath. However, this dead girl, who knows when did she learned black magic, but after she touched and kissed Yingzi. Yingzi came back to life. Niang, don’t you think it’s strange? The villagers are now talking about it, saying that dead girl was possessed by evil spirits. She clearly died yesterday, but she came back to life. Then, Yingzi also died but came back to life. Niang, do you think she was possessed by evil spirits?”

Old Lady Bai doesn’t know if the dead girl was possessed or not. All she could remember was, this morning, Yingzi’s mother came to their courtyard.

“This morning, Yingzi’s niang came in here.” Old Lady Bai said after thinking.

Mrs. Liu stopped hanging their clothes and looked back at the old lady: “Yingzi’s niang came? Is it because of yesterday’s incident? Did she came to settle the account to that dead girl?” When Mrs. Liu was saying those words, there was a trace of excitement in her tone. She would like to see how that little bitch suffers from this account.

However, Old Lady Bai shook her head: “No, Yingzi’s niang brought Yingzi together with her. She looks good. Nothing bad seems happened.”

Mrs. Liu immediately lost her excitement: “Then, why did she came?”

Old Lady Bai said: “She came with a basket. I didn’t know her intention. But now that I heard your story, she must have come to thank Zhi’er for saving her daughter’s life. I don’t know what’s inside the basket, but I’m sure, it was something good.”

Since it was something good, how can they just let it go?
